Among the moat amusing by-products of this war are j the accusations hurled by both Uerman and English writers, accusing one an other of lucking a sense of humor. Of course both are right, and, equally of course, both are wrong. We Americans, however, need not plume ourselves upon the unfairness of our German and British friends, for we are also in the habit of proclaiming tliat we have a kind ! of monopoly of appreciation and creation of humor. In point of fact, in ever}- modern nation there are people who under stand and appreciate humor and others who do not. Americans ure prone to say that the British are lacking in this respect. That is nonsense on its face, inasmuch as Shakespeare, Thackeray, Swift, Steele, Pope, Hood, Dickens, Goldsmith and a host of other w '.tera rank with the greatest wita and humorists of all ages. The fact that they are appreciated by the British public is ample proof of it6 possession of a 6ense of humor. We sometimes like to say, also, that the German ia slow-witted and lacking in humor. This is equally nonsensical. Perhaps the best of the modern humorous publications are German, while German literature also boasts numerous writers who were both humorous and witty. Naturally we may find Britons and Germans who lack a sense of humor. Also we may find rast numbers of Americana, Frenchmen and Irishmen similarly lacking, and these are popularly supposed to be the peoples most appreciative of humor. The plain fact appears to fae that all humankind is dowered with a sense of the humorous in greater or less degree and that, with the spread o? education, civilization and culture, this sense is accentuated. fl Fixing American Standard of Life By H. O. GEHRING. Detroit. Mick. As a nation we are so ac customed to set our stan dards according to the ultra prosperous and extravagant that we have come to nurse false conceptions which breed unnecessary pain and a wholly unfounded sense of injustice. As a matter of fact, the American standard is not fixed hy wealth at all, but by that mingled thrift and industry which makes for plenty, and whose characteristic is summed up in the old adage : "Nothing too much." We're going to learn some day something about the fundamental prin ciple herein involved. We're going to fix our standard not according to those who are living disastrously below it, but according to the standard of necessity with comfort. In that day all who bear their anare of the daily burden will hava enough. The standard of life in America ia not an automobile in every wood shed, nor a white-capped maid in every nursery ; the standard of American life is enough of what is necessary, a little of what is luxury, a lot of what is comfort, an education for the young ones, a roof for old age, and a life work well done. All above that or below it ia aside from the standard. fl Talking Shop Put to Good Account By it SMITH. IndiMnroiw. lad. One who is interested in his occupation, whether it ii writing novels, painting pic tures, shoeing horses or rais ing corn or potatoes, knows something about his special pursuit that no one else j knows, or at least is able to view it from an angle others have not taken, and when his interest and enthusiasm lead him to try to give others that point of view, he may be truly entertaining. Something, of course, depends on the listener's breadth of mind and receptiveness, but if he is of that catholicity which puta him in the class to which nothing human is alien, he welcomes knowledge on any subject and rejoices in the pleasure of absorption of the talker in his theme. When the actor talka about acting he should have something to say worth hearing; so with the artist, the teacher, the lawyer, the artisan in any line. Even the follower of that driest of all occupations, commercial book keeping, may have something to tell that would interest his fellow-beings, for it ia said, upon good authority, that accountants may be found who enjoy their work and regard it as a science. Shop talk at its best, indeed, is the very best sort of talk. fl Misfortunes Contain Germ of Good By J. L Maytag GsactBOAd, Obis Even the worst ^??for tunes, seem to ..utain the germ of good. Thus the era of unemployment, which now, happily, appears to be passing, has demonstrated anew the common humanity of men. Every move loa* the relief of the unemployed has met ready and hec-Hy support, from rich and struggling alike. It will probably never be known how much self-denial has been practiced during the dark days in order that the necessities of life may h. more generally distributed. The trouble is that men forget the . things in brighter days. When !we face a general calamity everybody is liberal, everyone is willing to strain bia means to help. When the time of stress is past we are, unfortu nately, likely to assume that nobody remains who needs help. ? In the periofc cf the highest demand for labor there are rosny unem ployed who are so because they do not fit into the jobs at hand and do not know where to seek for those they can fill. j It would be well if we took stock of our humanity and retained some ; of. itt. manifestations for the coming era when times will not be so "hard." ?ol Too Much Reading as Bad as None By Cants* P. Dseesjssa? Dsaw. Cale? It waa lord Bacon who said "reading maketh the full man," but he failed to tell his public that too much reading of a certain sort might make the reader "too full." I do net decry the reading of fiction. An old instructor of raine used ito sty that during the winter months everyone should read solid books for the most part and do light reading in the warm weather. His theory was ?that too much solid reading during the entire year tended to make one mentally stodgy. The point I wish to make, however, is that .mental intoxication, con sequent upon too great indulgence in the printed page, is as bad as phys ical intoxication. If we read too much fiction our taste is apt to becon.i vitiated. The summer is the time for fiction, bat it is siso the tims for the country, for athletic exercise, for botanizing, for getting acquainted with that wonder ful nature whvtfi is all shout uk BfJPflBHIWrai?81al LEGAL NOTICES INCOME TAX PAYERS TAKE NOTICE.

I am grubbing up anything that 1 eau command and am throwing it at the devil." His text wa? from John 17: 1, 'The Hour Is Come." The following is a synopsis of his sermon : "1 um here preaeliitig to you a liv ing, reigning Christ, a Christ that they u.ildli't Keep lu the dbl, who sits at [thi! right hand of Cod. Not u dead Christ, hm a living Christ that can .lu ' lo me titlet lim .t. "Thc hour ls collie (hut we should realize that the crisis is here.

But If hell and the devil triumph, tills will be a good town to get out of. "A lot of people aro looking on the church as the end, instead ot a mean? to the end. I will tell you sir, the churches are not drooped down ou cornera to entertain the people; the church> ls not a mutual congratula tion society or social endeavor or a third rate amusement bureau. You are mot In the church to keep a little space seventeen inches Htjuaro warm hut to fight for Jesus Christ, and if you are not doing that then you are a curse. "When I was a pastor aa long na I preached Little Willie has gone to heaven, etc., I was a great preacher to them. But when I poured out the naked truth upon them they broke the sneed limit to the presiding eld er. I tell you it ls time for us preach ers to get down to business. Three fourths of the preaching of today does not excite one emotion for good or bring one shadow of cndemnat^i. It does not kill. You havte got to sholl the woods for God and give the devil the best rim for his money. "My heart's cry tonight Is 'hack to the Bible' and I cry In my heart back to the superna tural. Away with the Hickly senti mental trash that we see all about us these days. Back from this kid-glov ed, dovll-concocted starch of today.

A power that will make the Har a truthful man, the drunkard a sober man, tho d?bauche, a clean man. "I am going to give the devil and his dirty bunch notice tonight that I am not asking i'or any quarter or giving any. Whenever you find the devil one side of a question you will find me on the other'side, individual ly, jointly and collectively. I plead for an old-time, heaven-born, Godr sent revival, that .will make the loose tougued, hui tern-jawed old gossip shut her mouth. "You Bay that a revival is an ab normal condition in the church.

Some times I hear people talk of cordplay Ing Christians, ^ whiBkey-drinklng Christians and dancing Christians.

"No sin, makes no difference how great your nins arc, if you will re pent you will bc saved ard if you do not repent, makes no difference how small your sins are you will go to hell.
