President George Kister, of Campion college, said the other day in Prairie due Chien: Learning, profound learning, is the > light of the world, but we continually get new proof of the harm a little learning does. A woman em/ ployed a schoolgirl of twelve to scrub her front steps. The school girl worked well, but suddenly she stopped coming. The woman met her on the street and said: "What's the matter, Minnie? Why have you stopped working for me?" The urchin tossed her head. "I'm takin' Latin now," she sniffed, "and I don't scrub steps no more." ?Youth's Companion. r TRANSATLANTIC AIR ROUTE. (Continued from page 1, column 6.) ing 100,000 planes or any such number. He also warned American man> ufacturers that they must expect constant changes in design both of en.? gines and planes and be ready to absorb new types of either on short notice. Gen. Brancker deplored the advertisement of official statements and otherwise of flying "aces." The practice, he said, does a grave injus tice to the men of tne pioaaing reconnaissance machines, who risk their lives for hours to make the work oi the guns below efficient. Advertisement of the "aces," the general said, would not be countenanced in Great Britain although he was certain that British pilots, on the average, held the highest records for performance. "You Americans," he said, "are onr dangerous rivals in that field." i ?* m "Not a Morphine War." Floyd Gibbons, war correspondent of the Chicago Tribune, in a letter to Federal Judge Landis, of Chicago, written after .Mr. Gibbons had received a letter from Reed Landis, the jurist's son, writes: "Unless Germany is beaten, unless America beats her, our national fate will be as ignominous as Belgium's. Nothing? absolutely nothing?politics, cost, rank, life, present welfare, nothing should be permitted to interfere with j I mir ofPnrt trv cavp r?nr national OX-I istence. A Swiss statesman had been quoted as saying that 'Germany has been fighting the war with liquid fire and the Allies with hot air.' If there ever was any truth to such a charge then it is time for America to make | it spell a lie. We know we will never j win the war by jabbing ourselves with a morphine needle and then raving about what an awful wallop we are going to land on the Boche. This simply isn't a morphine war?not the way Germany is fighting it? and that is the only way that can be considered if we have within our hearts the will to win." Japanese railways are largely operated by women. *m Bookbinders at Rochester, N. Y., secured $3 a week increase.

I haven't had occasion to use any Doan's Kidney Pills for several years, but 1 clearly remember the good I derived from them when last I used them, i had a lameness in my back and my kidneys were disordered, causing me much annoyance. I used Doan's Kidney Pills and they completely cured me of this trouble and put my kidneys in good shape again, so I am glad to endorse this remedy.
