Many people who cannot find time to go to the woods to know the birds by a little tact bring the birds to their homes. It is too late to plant flowers to lure them by their seeds; but it is not too late to put out in a safe and shady place a large pan of fresh wa- ter for them to drink or to bathe i The fact that birds find these con. veniences and sources of food in back dragon is a bumble-bee flower, or the petunia a moth flower. It you like birds try this. EDITORIAL NOTES. This war is giving us a good opin-i ion even of the swine. The Huns spare should they be spared? no one—why. Pat Riot can always trace his iine- age back to the Emerald Isle. String beans grown on Boston Common must be something/of a rar- ity. l What Kaiser Karl: needs is Pep! He might borrow some from the Pohe- mians. The reconstruction period which is sure to follow the war will be mno mean problem. Only one-sixth.as manyipeople are taking booze in England:today as took it in 1914. The August cricket as a herald is rompt and shril. He says: “Six weeks to frost!” Sensible people go slow on meats and. stimulants of all kinds when a hot wave is on. Dandelion roots are 23 cents a pound. This makes some lawns look like a gold mine. It is possible to note pleasing inci- dents from the window of 'a trolley car. It is not so long ago that I saw a pretty, neat, well-dressed little girl from a trolley car window whose dress dark hair and olive complexion in- dicated that she was of Italian nt- age, approaching a carriage lett upon the walk with an infant-therein with a rufiled cap enveloping its head, and bright face and angelic eyes, and it may have been “goo-ing” as speech- less infants do. She. gently lifted the rufile about the forehead of the baby, spoke a word and smiled. There could have been no reply. The little maid gracefully stepped back from the car- riage and curtsied to this strange baby as though she was conscious that it was of aagelic origin, or that it might have come from Heaven; and then ‘went on her way. This was a pretty sight, innocence greeting innocence so finely ang formally on a city street prompted apparently by love, and as unconscicus of the strolling vagrants irale of the American army. ‘The call for five million American soldiers is a bugle-blast sure to be heard in Germany. The forces of evil have often put up a mighty front in. this world, but have always failed. As a political figure Mr. Hearst seems to be more appreciated in Ber- lin than in America. More ships were launched in July than were ever launched before in a year in this country. | The K. of C. slogan: “Everybody ‘welcome and everything free” is hear- ty enough for anybody. Oklahoma hag tweive candidates in the list for the governorship. The war spirit manifests there. Germany is suffering from dementia for which blood-letting is good. Un- cle Sam will perform the heroic op- eration. The Marne has proved to be a dead line to the Kaiser’'s forces. Wonder if three times and then out will be the record? An officer of a British warship com- plains that Boston girls are too shy and uncompanionable. They do not take chances. For eight and a half dollars a week a young woman in Washington, D, C., may get 2 bed in a tent and two meals a day! Those who petition God to be with them should be sure they are right. It is a safer and higher ambition to try to be with Him. Candy dealers have been requested to sell but one pound of candy at a time. The five-pound box is a depar- ture from patriotism. A Massachusetts man has tried vacuum suction upon potato bugs and it gathered them in superbly. FEasier and safer than poison. Ten thousand postmasters have been added to the civil serviee list. If 10,000 were tested by it the ser- vice might be greatly improved. A Heverhill, Mass, coal dealer wants to collect 100,000 tons of coal for an emergency. Says he'll land the coal by Sept. 1st if He is given the order, Those who still think woman’s sphere is the kitchen should be noti- fied that four women have been ar- rested as part of a gang helding up a train in Missouri. John McCormick says “No man can hate Germany as I do and stay out of the war.” .The government orders him to sing rather than fight fot vic- tory because in that way he can do most. Only one flag is allowed to float above the American flag—the flag of the church during the times of di- vine service. This is a symbol of re- spect jfor religion. God isn’t open to flattery. Dr. Davis, the Kaiser’s American dentist, says that one of the Kaiser's sons was actually wounded, Prince Joachim, the youngest. He was slightly wounded in the thigh, but it will enable him to limp through history. “See what one of your damned American bullets did to me,” he exclaimed to Dr. Davis, re- ferring to the com t that Amer- ica manufactured Russia's fire —Waterbury American, and lumbering noises of the street as if they had no existence.

The women behind the men must be right if we expect the men behind the guns to be. It is being noted that there is a ecarcity of English sparrows in all parts of New Engiand not to be ex- plained by the human campaign against them, mor wholly attributable to the severity of the winter of 1917- 1918. I have not seen an English sparrow upon my premises the past summer although they have found protection and food there for the past ten yeacs. They have deserted the old swamp-maple tree hole in which they have had two or three broods a year, and the old bluebird house which they drowe the bluebirds from several years ago, and have since oc- cupied summer and winter. No single pair of English sparrows can drive a pair of our nntive bluebirds from their home. The bluebirds battled for a week asgainst every English sparrow combination. They are the Huns among small birds and fight for one another. We have not had upon the premises one-half the number of starlings which visited us the previous year. There -is something strange about the disappearance of the spar- rows and it is likely to be quite diffi- cult to account for it. It was in June that I became in- terested in a group of boys of foreign parents on the outskirts of the city were wearing wild roses—a single rose—in their hat bands. They were not well dressed, were barefooted, gnd in city parlance were likely to be re- ferred to as urchins; but any boy who loves a rose for: its fragrance or its decorative beauty has a quality of soul that is worth having. I recog- nized that this was not an American habit; but the habit of boys in the valleys of Italy or on the highways of France where wild flowers are abun- dant and the fancy for color and adornment is prevalent among the common people. Somehow that one wild rose in the hat band of each boy made me feel akin to them, made me sense that deep within them abode a love of beauty, which tothem might be a joy forever. The Anglo- Saxon race is inclined to regard any- thing of this sort as being effiminate, and in its disregard for beautiful trifles it has lost a quality of ever- lasting value. We have divided the people of the earth . into good and bad people Dr. W. T. McElvelin hffirmed re- cently: “You can no more educate a bad man into a good man than you can educate a buttercup into a butter- fly.” This does not mean that bad men are beyond redemption, but that mental change is not the thing, yet a change of heart is. Perhaps the best symbol of a good man and a bad man is light and darkness, or intelli- gence and ignorance. There is very much less willful sin in the world than most of us imagine. “It is not only what we do,” says Moliere. “but also what we do not do, for which we are accountable.” Our sins of com- mission are nothing compared to our sins of omission which crush spiritual impulses and make us negative to good, when we should be positive for it. Most of the woes of manking are traceable direct to ignorance. It is the appeal to the heart which stirs men’s souls, not the appeal direct to the intellect. What shallow stuff ordinary talk is. Perhaps man’s talk about the weather and woman's talk upon the styles are good average samples. What do we know about the weather, anyhow. We do not know what the earth needs for weather, or seem to realize what the earth needs may be good for us whether we enjoy it or not. We com- plain when it is too cold, too dry, or 100 wet, and grumble because-it does not meet our wants instead of our ne- cessities. If it did what do you sup- pose would happen? Thoughtless chat is all he go, and talking about things worth while instead of our neighbors makes us popularly known as “nuts” or ‘“cranks.” “an is guilty of saying a thousand things every day that are not so for the sake of sus- taining his pretenses and hearing him- self talk. We enjoy the sound of our own voices and do not think as ser- iously as we should of the quality or effect of our utterances. It was Hiene who expressed the opinion that Judaism is not a religion but a misfortune; and in the face of the present claim of the Germans that through Luther and Lutheranism that nation has become like the Irael- ites a chosen people to do the will of God, the seme thing may be said of it. We must either stop teaching “God is the same yesterday, today and forever,” or else we must decline to accept that theory that Jehovah is a partial God. It is and always will be folly for Christians to quarrel about the character of God, for it is up to them to glorify the divine truths which have been revealed to man, and to prove that the Christ in all his prom- ises promulgated truth. He was all He claimed to be, or He was nothing but an imposter. He cannot be fash- ioned to suit us, because the divine decree is that we must become like unto Him. God is not like unto us be- cause the infinite doesn't need finite qualities.—We need His spiritual il- lumination! We need His truth, and when we obey the Golden Rule war will be at an end. d (¥ panies of my own battalion, the re- If you are _l_nt feeling _vnfl -.ndwl?h % We foung her during the Great Re- treat. It was Private Manning who brought her to me and proposed to adopt her for the company. “Certainly we'll take care of her,” said I, “till we can find a proper Home for her.” “Yew see, sir,” he went on, ‘“she ‘on’t eat much in t way o' rations, an she’ll ride werry comf-rable on t' top o’ my pack.

After a while I asked him about his pretegee. “Dead, sir,” he said. “Do yew think T'd’a’ coom back wi'oot her?” “Tell me ahout=it,” I urged; begin at the beginning,” “Right yew be, sir,” said Manning. “Yew remember them cross-roads by that ’ere dead tank?” “Shall I ever forget them?” I an- swered. “Where that Boche ‘plane dropped those bombg$ and stampeded the horses, you mean?”’ “That werry same, sir,” said Man- nings. “Well, I caught a hold o' two o’ they hosses an’ cut 'em loose from t' wag'n. which had both t' hinder wheels in t' ditch, an’ whin I looked round arter yew, I couldn’ see nothin’ but a lire o' wag'ns.

My owd Lewis to be worse iet your condition prey upon your mind and your tongue con- vey to your friends how miserable you feei! And the more attention you give to your ‘feelings” the worse you will get. It is good medicine to pay little attention to slight indispositions and to give one’'s whole attention to things which need it. There is no bore worse than the invalid who in- sists upon constantly talking about how he feels to his friends; and it is because the talk makes them sick that they lose sympathy for him. More people have become chronic in- valids by exploiting their disordered teelings than the world realizes, The person who is wearing friends out by a retital of their woes are wearing themselves out, too. Suppression of thoughts concerning things disagree- able Is both wise and profitable. Many an invalid who has stopped talking of self has been surprised by getting well. LETTERS TO THE EDITOR About That Town Team. Mr. Editor: I chanced to be near at hand when Selectman James Gorman broke all established precedents by discharging the town team. I happen to know that Mr. Gorman did not (do as many say he did) use rough larguage; he simply told the driver that his team must work nine hours a day in order that the town farm get $7 for it. He most strenu- ously objected to paying a day's pay to a man and team for six hours’ work. One word brought on another until Gorman sent the team off the road and told his men to go home until he could secure a team that would give the taxpayers full value for their money. There was no profanity, no abusive language, simply the man was asked to work, not loaf; and, refusing to put in full nine heurs, he was discharged. “No other selectman ever dared to do such a thing,” has been heard quite often for a few days past, but that is wrong. There was once a_selectman by the name of Briggs, Hon. B, R. Briggs, to be more accurate, who did the same trick. Work or no pay was his order, just as in the case of Mr. Gorman. Such deeds show why mearly 300 people use a pencil at a town election | to write the name of a man not nom- inated on the republic and democratic tickets.

Taken from Peggy Shippens in the Philadelrhia Ledger: We were off early the next morn- ing with an immense load for Crepy- en- Valois, then from that point to Pierrefonds, and further, to Cruise- la-Motte, leaving supplies everywhere —the director going ahead in his touring car. The roads are worn almost past the point of travel, and there is now no time to mend them. The con- gestion is beyond words and cannot be imagined by any one who has not seen thea: military roads. Thence we are told to go to a place called Montigny, and we went the direct|once. road, which was a most unfortunate mistake, as it took us right into gun- fire; the contirol thinking that we were an ambulance did not stop us. I can assure you I turned that car with alacrity and dispatch. 1 quick- ly started up another road, omnly to see those nasty black ehells coming after us again. So we turned once more and made a wide circuit. Fi- nally we got to the dugouts for which we were looking. These. are full of soldiers and such a nice “Foyer,” underground lighted by candles. We received a warm wel- come, as we always do; but the col- onel advised me, if we would not stay to dinner, which must entail re- turning in the dark, to leave at once, as the shelling usually began about that time. Therefore, feeling that we had had about as much shelling as we could stand for one day, we started back. But I imagine that our truck must have been spotted for the last. shell sounded as though it had landed on our tailboard. Mrs. Work was great. She never said a word, but looked too funny in her resolute expression, and I could not help laughing. ‘We thought we would pass the night at Pierrsfonds, and the Major de Cantonnement gave us the key of the hotel. We found it quite nice and made ourselves comfortable. Then we went up to the chateau, where there is an American ambu- lance section and begged for seme dinner, as we were famished. The boys were so nice and so glad to see us, and we dined and breakfast- ed in the courtyard of that exquisite chateau. Next morning we went to Crepy for another load, and in the woods there we passed that day around _ Villers - Cotterets, running back to Paris late that evening, tired, but' knowing that we really had done much to cheer up many of our troops. As the poilu soys: “On est si con- tent de savoit que quelqu'un s'occupe de nous” (“One is so glad to know that some one thinks and works for us.”) Mrs. Rodgers adds they had & call for help that morning, stating the new offensive was on and they were need- ed. It was too late to do anything profitable that day; but on the mor- row Mrs. Swan and Mrs. Rodgers were to start for—where? They knew not. They were helping others to the limit of their possibilities, as we all feel here and over there that this is no time to stand on nice dis- tinctions or rules. ‘One must meet the need in what ever shape it pre- sents itself.
