KNOW AMERICA! - Factors Which Are Helping in Rediscovering Our Country*. t America has been rediscovered, cays Kathleen Hills, in Leslie's. The war, the California expositions, low railroad fares and a general wave of prosperity, enabling many to travel who have not done so before, have ^^^^^been the contributing factors in help bg Americans to rediscover America. |^9|^Alumbus and the early and adventurHHBs pioneers discovered America, and steamboats and then the railroads f^^^ftpened it to travelers. Many have K^j^Ybeen too busy traveling abroad to learn what a wonderland nature has given us. It took the calamity of K war to bring us to a realization of V our wealth of natural scenery and W our unequalled facilities for travel. Our architectural wonders and the works of man are not as old or thrillingly reminiscent of great historical events as many places abroad, but our natural wonders are as ancient as any in Bgy^rahd more'inspiring. How much richer this country is for this awakened interest can better be told in hard, cold facts. Every year, prior to the war, between 300,000 Z and 500,000 left America to travel ?J tttUVI IVI Am hatwofln I auructu, UclfS-lUg whu iucuj uchiwu $300,000,000 and $500,000,000. For two years this vast sum has been turned back into our own coffers, and unless the war ends speedily, this wealth, for the third year, will stay in America. Grip's Do's and Don't's. * Keep away from crowded places of i assembly when grip is prevalent. I y Have plenty of fresh air at home and where you work. Wear clothes according to the out-. ^ aide temperature, but avoid too heavy V clothes indoors to prevent unhealthy / skin coddling, which will make you more liable to attack by the grip germ. Keep in open air as much as possible. Keep the body functions regulated, so that waste matter may be eliminated. Be temperate in eating and drinking. ^ Keep your teeth well brushed. | Many evil minded germs lurk in the * mouth. Think of the other fellow if you yourseu aireauy nave gup. DON'T Don't sit around with wet feet. Don't be promiscuous in your kisslag. The grip germ may be readily I passed from lip to lip. ( Don't sneeze or cough in your L friends' or neighbors' faces. Don't ride in a crowded street car where all the windows are closed. H| Don't be afraid of fresh air. Even HH drafts will not hurt you unless you are fatigued and overheated. [ Don't fail to remember that grip is very contagious. Keep away from ^ it if you can. The next best thing is B to keep physically fit, so you can re^ sist attack. Not Enough Sides. According to Pathfinder, W. B. Trites, the novelist, said at a tea in Chicago: I "Writers have a hard time at the k beginning, but on the other hand, af L ter they arrive they live 111 clover. M "But the beginning is hard, indeed. & I met in the park yesterday a beginr ning poet. " 'My dear boy,' I said, reproachfully, 'that coat needs turning.' k "'Ah, go on!' he said. 'Do you V think it's got three sides?' " F LIMIT KISSES TO TEN FEET. Xethersoulful Salutes Banished From Films of Pennsylvania. Now we have the ten-foot kiss, the longer kisses having been shelved by the moving picture censorship of Ohio and Pennsylvania?that is to say, the movie hero and heroine have ten feet of film in which to accomplish their osculation. The Nethersoulful kiss is no more. The clinging, cloying tearfulness that detain-J m * x 11 ~ ^ >sh 4.: ~ eu jtnlice unarming mi ms iiecKLie) had changed its spots and her hair was disheveled is in the discard. The referee says, "Break away!" and Cupid must comply. Ten feet sounds like a good deal of kiss, but at the rapid rate of moving celluloid it winks by as briefly as a view from a car window. The course of true love cannot run smooth, it seems, even from the reel. The lovers must battle not merely against parental opposition, but against Breitinger and company. As Artemus Ward wrould say, "This is 2 mutch" for true love to endure.?Philadelphia Public Ledger. Fortunes in Little Things. One does not have to live in a large town to find an opportunity to make a fortune. The opportunities are everywhere. It is only the man with his eyes open who sees tliem. Druggist Lommitt, of Rochester, Mo., who remembered the demand for quinine during the civil war, had his eyes open, for he bought 10,000 ounces of quinine a little more than a year ago at fourteen cents an ounce. His judgment proved correct, for the quinine that cost him $ 1,400 is now worth $25,000, and it Xlictj gu He has had nothing to do with increasing the price. It is the demand that is putting it up. A philanthropist might argue that it is a crime to make money out of the necessities of the sick; but philanthropists who refuse to turn an honest penny when the opportunity offers are few and far between. Some of them do not indulge in philanthropy as a recreation until they have accumulated a large surplus by squeezing the last cent of profit from every transaction. In the meantime the Dimmitts of big towns and little ones are doing their1 best to qualify themselves for benevolence by making hay while death wields the scythe.?Philadelphia Ledger. Paper for Clothing. The Japanese have long used, paper for clothing purposes. Why could we not also use paper in manufacture linings for garments and fillings for comfortables in this time of urgent need? Papers have been used in the dress trade for the balloon sleeve which was pliable and did not rustle. The Chinese have long manufactured paper of this nature. If we could manufacture a pliable paper reinforced with cotton threads or cheesecloth so that it would not break in the creases or tear readily in the handling, a cheap and warm commodity could be turned out that would serve the same purpose as the more expensive materials.?New York Times. She Didn't Smile. The young woman had spent a ~ busy day, says the Philadelphia Record. She had browbeaten fourteen salespeople, bullyragged a floor walker, argued victoriously with a milliner, laid down the law to a modiste, nipped in the bud a taxi chauffeur's attempt to overcharge her, made a street car conductor stop the car- in the middle of the block for her, dis? J Atiao (roH on Cllctrgeu lid ixiaiu. auu c"b?ovu "? other, and otherwise refused to allow herself to be imposed upon. Yet she did not smile that night when a young man begged: "Let me be your protector through life." Effects of Frost. An egg expands when it is frozen and breaks its shell. Apples contract so much that a full barrel will shrink until the top layer is a foot below the chine. When the frost is drawn out the apples assume their normal size and fill up the barrel again. Some varieties are not appreciably injured by being frozen, if the frost is drawn out gradually. Apples will carry safely in a refrigerator car while the merpury is registering fullv 20 degrees below zero. Potatoes, being so largely composed of water, are easily frozen. Once touched by frost they are ruined.? Northwest Trade. A Courageous Physician. Doctor?Mrs. Knagg, your husand needs six months' rest. Half of it he must spend in Europe. Mrs. Knagg?Oh, splendid! We shall be delighted to go there. Doctor?That's what I've planned, you can go for three months after he returns. That will give him a full six months' rest. I BYRNES MAKING IMPRESSION. Pushing Fight to Secure Additional Defenses for South Carolina. Washington, Feb.^,25.?The efforts of Congressman Byrnes, of South Carolina, to see that the South Carolina coast is properly defended against an enemy are being seriously considered here. In the plans for a general defense of the Atlantic coast are preparations for ,the heaviest class of fortifications at the mouth of the Chesapeake bay, it has become known through testimony given before the Sherley sub committee or tne appropriations com-i mittee of the house. Gen William Crozier, chief of ordnance of the army, appeared before that committee yesterday and gave considerable testimony on the necessity for protecting that waterway. He described it as one of several places where "facilities for land operations are so good that it is worth while to fortify them, especially to prevent that operation," notwithstanding they are not places where great damage can be done by the guns of a fleet." The general said further, in discussing Chesapeake bay: "We have Norfolk, defended at Fort Monroe, Washington very much over-defended and "Baltimore defended. But they (the enemy) could come into Chesapeake bay and establish a base along that shore, then send an army in any direction. There are few such points as that." Charleston and New Orleans might be damaged by long range fleet fire, he said, and 12-inch guns with high angle fire, giving them a range beyond any guns afloat or contemplated for navy ships, would answer tne defense purposes at such points. Atlantic City and Gloucester, Mass., similarly might be victims of fleet fire, he said, but their bombardment would not injure the nation's ability to continue the war, and it is not! proposed to fortify them. "It would be deplorable and veryi unfortunate for the citizens," he add-, ed, "but it is impracticable to defend the whole coast against damage. "Certain points are selecfed for. fortifications where the damage' would be so important as to affect the fighting ability of the United States. | They are still not protected against' damage which could be done by! bodies of troops landed and marched over land to one of these cities. "The theory is that we have plenty of people and plenty of resources to ! take care of that condition, if we will use them. If we will not use them, there is no way to take care of it." Farm Dwellers. I The lot of the resident on the farm is far from being undersirable and from the standpoint of freedom from. < worry over matters financial the 1 dweller in the country has a distinct j l y advantage over the city chaps, whom { no doubt, they frequently envy. It, i is generally understood that $1 in the ; country is equivalent to $3 in the city ^ and not infrequently there are families in the country whose income is apparently nil. They handle very little real money in the course of the i year; their wants are few and plain j1 and easily satisfied. A like income in the city would mean more appeals for charity. In the country the question of rent, and in many communi- ( ties, the question of fuel, is eliminat- ed. The expenditure for clothes is less. Much of the food s supplied by the garden and orchard, and meat, butter and eggs are produced right at | home. The expenditure for amuse- , ments is necessarily less. While too : often country life is drab and uninteresting, it need not necessarily be sn smri thp rniintrv dweller of small , w' w ~ -- - i, income lives far more luxuriously ! than does his city cousin of equal income.?Lafayette Courier. Executive Ability. "You ask for the secret of success. ] Well, one secret in executive work is putting the right man in the right place. Like Lord Claud Hamilton, you know," said a Washington visit- ] or, to the Star. "Lord Claud was traveling over his 1 line when a brakeman?or guard, as they say in the old country?shouted at Action station: < "Haction!

We must have the Action porter brought here, and we'll send that Hanwell fellow to Action.' " He Needed It. i < "Do you love sister Clara, Mr. Simpson?" asked the little brother frankly of the caller. "Why, Willie, what a funny ques- ' tion?" replied the astounded Mr. Simpson. "Why do you ask that?" < "Because she said last night she'd 1 give a dollar to know, and I need the dollar." ^SPECIAL TWO Saturday and Monday, Ladies' and Chile Dress Goods, Di ron Ginghams Ladies' Hosiery Hosiery, Men's J and Embroideri Ladies' and Chi dervests, lot of and 25c goods.
