before the desert animals hod this

Whenever there bus been talk of a
tax on bachelors In England, then?
has been a chorus of protest. Yet
their bachelors may consider them
selves lucky, for amongst the Eskimos
of northern Canudu marriage is com
pulsory.
Christ Ian l.eden. the Norwegian ex
plorer, who recently returned from u
three years’ stay among them, says
that no |M-oj»le live a cleaner furnily

as many wives us he can support, and
ail are remarkably good nutured. Bad
temper is considered a sign of being
possessed by a devil. r*nd lying is a

who was not married, and that was
due to the fact that her hair was too

The Other Man's Jcb
It is useful to exauiiue our own
capabilities when we find ourselves
envying the lot of others. Are we mak
ing good iu our o vn sphere of work?
That is the llrst test. If we ure mere
ly pottering along In un undistin
guished way the chances arc we should
do the same in any other role. In
our own work we are very conscious
of its difficulties and barriers. Our
advancement is slow because we dully
encounter the little lets and hindrances
that ure hidden from the outsider.
But these would he much the same in
uny other Job. If we ennnot surmount
them in our own case. It is unlikely
we should be more successful In a
position with which we ure wholly un
acquainted.—Exchange.

On lost Wednesday morning, Aug.
10th, the death angel visited the
city hospital in Milledgeville, and
bore away the spirit of Mrs. Horace
Blizzard after a long illness and
much suffering though she never
murmured or complained. The fun

H. D. Warnock, of Milledgeville, and
the body was laid to rest in the cem

It is men who make the country.
With this in view we consider Se-
nori Esperidior.a Chavez, 89 years
of age, of Los Angeles, rocking the
cradle of her one hundred and sixty-
second direct descendant. She has
n.ne daughters and two sons and
they are all prolific.
Mrs. Chavez haa therefore added
to the country more wealth than
that of John I*. Rockefeller.
Property has to be cared for and
property rights to be expected, but

land iii its human beings.
France is supposed to be decadent
because the death rate piles up and
the birth rate is decreasing. On the
contrary, it is faced by prolific Ger
many with a steadily increasing pop
ulation.
The most important power in the
earth is its out-populating power.
This, in the end, wins more battles
thun armies or battleships.
The health and vigor of a nation
is a better defense to that nation
than armies and equipment. No mat
ter how many tools you have, it
taxes men to use them.
No matter how marvelous and
complete is a locomotive, it is value
less without an expert engineer. No
matter how good your airplane, you
have to have a Lindbergh to make it
a success.
In the end, it is always the human
factor, and men do well to conserve
life above all other things.

Children’s Day
It Is not possible to determine when
riiildren’s day originated. From early
limes many patuorx devoted a certain
Sabbath for special services for chil
dren. In 1S5G, Itev. Charles II. Leon
ard, pastor of the First Univertmlist
church of Chelsea, Mass., set apart a
SunUuy for the dedication of children
to the Christian life. This was
second Sunday In June. In ISOS the
