At an entertainment for the officers of his fleet just before the memora

IS A PIONEER IN ECONOMICS
In these days when so much is said
and done for the conservation of our
natural resources there has sprung up
a new school of economists who are
preaching the doctrine that in labor
every effort, every expenditure of
muscular or mental energy, should
count for the utmost and not go to
waste. A pioneer in this school is
Frederick Winslow Taylor, who re
cently appeared by invitation before a
committee of congress to explain how
the application of his theories in
creases the productiveness of work
men from 15 to 20 per cent.
Mr. Taylor is a native of German
town, Pa., and has risen to his present
prominence through his own efforts.
He is a patternmaker and machinist
by trade and a mechanical engineer
by profession. In 1878 he entered the
employ of the Midville Steel Com
pany, Philadelphia, and was success
ively gang boss, assistant foreman.
foreman, master mechanic, chief
draughtsman and chief engineer. In 1889 he took up the work of organiz
ing management in manufacturing establishments, in shop, office, accounting
and sales departments, and since then he has put his theories into operation
In many business organizations, Including steel works, wood pulp works,
etc. He is the owner of about 100 patents on his inventions.
POPULAR WITH THE FARMERS
there, far up In the north, found alfalfas that seem to need neither moisture
nor warmth to develop good pasture.
He brought the finest Cuban tobacco, tested and analyzed the soil m
which It grew, got detailed reports of the climatic conditions it required
and then hunted up the same soil and climate, and proceeded to grow the
tobacco in South Carolina. He brought seed of the inimitable Sumatra
wrapper-tobacco, searched for a place under the American flag where it would
flourish, and found it-in Texas. To prove it he will hand you a five-cent
cigar made of Texas Sumatra and Carolina Cuban filler, if you will ask him,
and you will pronounce it a high-class imported weed.
Everybody said hog cholera was incurable, and it cost the farmers tens

they’ve captured the right microbe, fixed up a serum, and put that particular
disability on the run.
CHOSEN IMPERIAL POTENTATE
John Frank Treat, who was elected
imperial potentate of the Mystic
Shrine at Rochester, is a resident of
Fargo, N. D., and a member of El
Zagal Temple of the Shrine. From
the four corners of the earth, by
train, boat and automobile, an army
of 30,000 Shriners swooped down and
planted their tents on the Rochester
oasis. From every part of the United
States they came and even from far
away Scotland were pilgrims to the
cradle of Shrinedom.
The Khartoum Temple, from Win
nipeg, Man., brought a genuine Scotch
kilties band of bagpipers; the Islam
Temple of San Francisco had a Chi
nese band of 50 pieces; the Los An
geles Shriners brought two carloads
of California fruits and wines to dis
tribute to their eastern friends; the
Galveston (Texas) Temple brought
two carloads of Mexican burros; Os
man Temple of St. Paul had its mil-
lionaire band, every member of which
Is a business or professional man whose fortune runs into big figures; E)
Zagal Temple, from Fargo, N. D., to which the pictured potentate belongs,
brought a 15-foot loaf nf bread and a cowbell of the same dimensions, and. In
tact every bunch had some novelty to spring.
Admiral Togo, the Japanese war
hero who came to this country as the
nation’s guest, is described by a Jap
anese official as one of the simplest
and gentlest of men. “You would
hardly imagine, to see the small,
slender figure, that you were in the
presence of the greatest master of
naval strategy that our navy has pro
duced, or that the world has seen in
modern times.”
Marshal Oyama, General Kuriki, Ad
miral Kamimura, Admiral Yamomoto
and Admiral Togo were all born in
the city of Kagoshima.
Togo had just g?own to youth’s es
tate and was fighting with a broad
sword when a messenger came from
the mikado ordering him to become a
naval officer. He packed his few be
longings and journeyed to England.
When the Chinese-Japanese war was
threatening Togo was captain of a
cruiser. He halted an English ship
The champion long-distance cabinet
officer is Secretary of Agriculture
“Tama” Jim Wilson, for he has been
holding down that job constantly
since 1897, while he has seen more
than a hundred other cabinet officers
come in and retire to private life.
“Tama” Jim is the friend of the farm
ers and the farmers seem to be
friends of his.
Secretary Wilson has made the de
partment of agriculture the greatest
instrumentality of practical every-day
helpfulness to 40 per cent, of the peo
ple in the United States. He has ex
periment stations finding out how to
make dry farming pay where there is
only ten inches of moisture a year;
and they are finding it out, too. He
brought the durum wheat from North
Africa, and in the regions formerly
too dry to be cultivable it has added
millions of bushels to our annual
wheat crop. He sent to Siberia, and

THIS is the whitest of white sum
mers, and everywhere the pre
ponderance of white gowns
makes a background against
which millinery is displayed to the
very best advantage. The greater
number of hats are white also, but
not entirely. Plume-laden or flower
laden, they are adorned with exquis
ite colors. Pink, in the coral, sea
shell and other delicate tones; blue
in the nattier and other grayish tints;
lilac, rose, green and cerise, are fa
vorites, and, just at the hour, yellow
has put in an appearance. In any
large gathering of women, out for the
summer evening, these colors, in the
liveliest of shades are scattered in
a sea of white. For the entire cos
tume, from shoes to chapeau, of the
great majority is colorless, except for
the trimmings on the hats.
Two very beautiful white hats are
pictured here, which Illustrate very
clearly the foregoing. The small hat
in white hair braid is decorated with
a band of gray net on which a pattern
in white beads is wrought. The

BROWN SAILOR HATS LIKED
Have Achieved a Popularity Almost
as Great as Has Come to the
Black.
Almost as popular as the black sail
or hat is the one of brown straw, oi
its close kin, that of burnt straw. It
is especially well liked for wear with
the popular brown linen suit —for
brown seems to be having quite a
vogue this season.
Newest, of course, are the small sail
or with the large head size, the small
or medium sized brim and the rather
high crown. These are somewhat try
ing to many types of women, but look
exceedingly well on the girls who are
“tailorish” enough to don them.
On the black and dark brown hats
white bands are the most approved
and fashionable style, while the burnt
straw hats are encircled by bands of
darker brown.
And the smartest hats, of course,
are those of the extreme straws—
either very rough or quite smooth
and fine.
Changeable Taffeta Garments.
Not many are yet seen, but they
are expected to have a great run a'
little later on. One reason why they
are not yet more in evidence Is un
doubtedly because of the price of the
French chiffon qualities of which they
are made. From $2.50 to $3.50 pel
yard is asked in the retail shops sot
these new taffetas. By another sea
son domestic manufacturers will have
popular-priced lines, but if one desires
an exclusive silk gown for the present
summer she should invest in 0^ oi
changeable chiffon taffeta.
Striped Coat Set.
Fine muslin, chiffon cloth, and mar
quisette are all used to make collar
and cuff sets for short jackets. These,
with eyelet embroidered batiste, have
taken the place of Irish lace, which
seems at a discount these days.
The striped coat sets are in any
color that one wishes, not necessarily
to match the suit. The collar is quite
long, deep at the back, and finished
with an edge of cluny lace or a hem
of colored muslin or linen to match
the stripe.

WASTE OF
WAR
By Rev. Samuel M. Dick
Pastor of Wesley M. E. Church,
Minneapolis
TEXT.—And he will judge between the
nations and will decide concerning many
peoples; and they shall beat their swords
Into plowshares, and their spears into
pruning hooks; nation shall not lift up
sword against nation, neither shall they
learn war any more.—lsaiah 2:4.
This prophecy is beginning to reach
its fulfillment. When the awful cost
in life and treasure is reckoned with,
it is astonishing that sensible civil
ized men should ever resort to war
to settle any question. There is an
other reason apart from its destruc
tive character why war should not
be resorted to. It never settles any
question. The best it can do is to
restate it and put it in another form.
Take for illustration the Civil war in
this country. Did it settle ti.e race
question? Did it settle the slavery
problem? Not by any means, but if
the amount of money that war cost
us during its progress and for pen
sions since, had been expended among
the colored people of this nation for
industrial education and other civil
izing agencies that race' today would
have been further advanced in the
scale of progressive peoples than it
will 500 years from today under the
present circumstances.
Christ's kingdom does not come by
the sword. It is within you. The
patriotism of war rules the world with
the sword. The patriotism of peace
rules the world with an idea. The
one is spectacular and wins instanta
neous applause; the other is quiet,
moves unseen and its marks are
seen only in generations. One is
like a derrick, it moves the mass of
iron by force applied in one place;
other is like a sunbeam, it moves
the mass of iron by the unseen ep
pansion of its molecules.
The maintenance of peace by pre
paredness for war is out of harmony
with the 'gospel, with reason, with
ethics, with economics and with com
mon sense, and any institution that is
out of harmony with all these things
should be discontinued. The prophet
says the nations shall not only settle
down to the great Industries of peace
but that they shall not learn war
any more. As long as peace is main
tained by overwhelming navies the
nations are learning war and the prog
ress of the world is checked. Given
national jealousy, hatred, prepared
ness for war and any trifle is suffi
cient to produce war. Given national
fraternity, great prosperity on the
part of the people and no armament
and no problem is sufficiently grave
to produce war.
The logic of preserving peace by
increasing the navies of the world
would finally leave the world power
in the hands of one nation. It would
only be a matter of time when all
nations but one would become bank
rupt.
The foolishness of increasing arma
ment is seen in the experience of our
own peaceful republic. For the eight
years preceding the Spanish war, our
appropriations for the army were a
little less than $24*000,000 per annum,
and for the navy a little over $27,000,-
000 per annum. For the eight years
preceding 1911 the appropriations for
the army sprang to $83,000,000 per an
num, and for the navy to more than
$102,000,000. We are now spending for
army, navy and pensions the enor
mous sum of $470,000,000, or 72 per
cent, of the entire revenue of the
United States. If this increase alone
in the army and navy were turned
toward the industries which make
a nation rich and happy, it would en
able and maintain an industrial and
agricultural experiment station in
every county in the United States and
give it more than $50,000 per annum
for its work. What would this mean
to the people? Last year our farm
products of all kinds were valued at
more than $4,700,000,000. With an
experiment station conducted as Min
nesota is conducting her work among
the farmers in every county, with
$50,000 per annum to operate it, the
agricultural products of this country
could easily be doubled, and with its
doubling every other industry would
keep pace. As it is now, we are
spending at least $125,000,000 annual
ly on our army and navy more
than is necessary for reasonable na
tional policing, and thereby losing
annually more than $4,000,000,000
which we might have if we followed
the law of gospel and common sense
and used the amount of money to de
velop the resources of the country
that we are now fooling away on
war measures and getting absolutely
nothing for it.
How long, oh how long, will this
wickedness and nonsense continue?
Abiding in Christ.
Abiding in Jesus is nothing but the
giving up of one’s self to be ruled and
taught and led, and so resting in the
arms of everlasting love. Blessed
rest! The fruit and the foretaste and
the fellowship of God’s own rest!
found of them who thus come to Jesus
to abide in him. It Is the peace of
God, the great calm of the eternal
world, that passeth all understanding,
that keeps the heart and mind. With
this grace secured, we have strength
for every duty, courage for every
struggle, a blessing in every cross,
and the joy of life eternal in death it
self. —Rev. Andrew Murray.
Every pew in a crowded church has
somebody in it who might become a

THAT
AWFUL
BACKACHE
Cured by Lydia E. Pinknam’s
Vegetable Compound
Morton’s Gap, Kentucky.—“l suf
fered two years with female disorders.
my health was very
bad and I had a
continual backache
which was simply
awful. I could not
stand on my feet
long enough to cook
a meal’s victuals
without my back
nearly killing me,
and I would have
such dragging sen
sations I could
hardly bear it. I
had soreness in each side, could not
stand tight clothing, and was irregular.
I was completely run down. On ad
vice I took Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vege
table Compound and Liver Pills and
am enjoying good health. It is now
more than two years and I have not
had an ache or pain since Ido all my
own work, washing and everything,
and never have the backache any more.
I think your medicine is grana and I
praise it to all my neighbors. If you
think my testimony will help others
you may publish it.”—Mrs. Ollik

Backache is a symptom of organio
weakness or derangement. If you
have backache don’t neglect it To

the root of the trouble. Nothing we
