Eau Claire Leader THE AMERICAN VESUVIUS iifer turns i as to what evwry business, evory eltlsen, and every working-maa, can do to create fully pros-perous conditions. Every one can do something to help, and it la only ae eU.taka hold to help, that the general welfare can be promoted. THE IRRITATTXa MR.

PLATT (Janesvtlle Oatette) lion. Chester C. Piatt, erstwhile head of the Wisconsin Leader, the nonpartisan league newtpsper published at Madison and spokesman and literary genius for the league in Wisconsin, hss gone and done it. He la peeved because the writers of books and newspapers go to North Dakota to find out about tbe league when the real nonpartisan business is right here In Wisconsin. "Many persons do not know," weeps Mr.

Piatt, "that Wisconsin has a nonpartisan lesgue governor, lieutenant governor and a secretary of state." and others by appointment of the governor are the heads of many of the departments, Mr. Piatt ought to know. He was there when they msde 'em all these officials and all were on his list. It has been no secret to snybody in Wisconsin. One may expect to have Mr.

Piatt claim Kate Richards O'Hare also, ss she belongs to th same breed and wears the same brand and additional ones showing that she is a step ahead of her very dear friends, the governor and the lieutenant governor, with a prison record. "But them happy days has gone." In 1910. the nonpartisan league had pot of money. It's busted now. Where did the coin go? Ask the governor's friends and Mr.

Piatt. So It is not a happy man at all who reads the boasting fulsomeness of Mr. Piatt.

"Hot a thing in tba world, honey.

What should there be wrong?" amazement In her voice, "unless It's that you're forgotten your hat, and who wouldn't a warm day like this?" answered Miss Prlngle, reassuringly. "But what -is disturbing "Oh, nothing, that is to say, nothing really important, my old fidgets again' I reckon," said Hons, wearily as (he played with a few stray locks. "Only I seemed to be stared at several times on the way here, and it -made me uncomfortable, you know." "Oh," retorted her friend, then a slights smile twitched the corners of her mouth nervously. "Guess that's due to yours and the War-burton family being town talk this morning, dear child. Have you seen the paper?" "Ho and I sure don't want to it that's the lay of the land," Ilona anaweed, hurriedly.

"All in every horrid detail I suppose?" "Um, pretty much hon, but don't let It worry you. Nothing should worry a girl of seventeen you know except the next dance or beaux." "Hang both," exclaimed Ilona. explosively as she tapped her teeth. "What ho! -In its rebellious mood today, what?" said Miss Martha with a smile of complete understanding that went to Ilona's heart.

Samuel L. Joshl of Baroda college, Baroda) India, in affiliation with the University of Bombay, is seeking for 100 young women of high caste from India. Professor Joshl Is a post-graduate of Columbia University, New York, and has two sons who fought in the World war. He is touring Amema under the auspices of the Carnegie foundation in the interest of world peace. As a contribution to better relations between India and the United States, he said recently, he considered the idea of bringing a high type of India's womanhood to be trained in American women's colleges, and with opportunities to mingle socially with educated American women, would be full of good for the future.

Hypnotism Is one of the occult sciences of India." he said recently, "but the American girl is also a hypnotist. The American women are wonderful and they know how to accomplish results. Not more than one per cent of oun women In India, can read and write but we "Very mnch and more," answered that young person mopping hf brow. "I'd like to be ten thousand miles away from thia apot in the discreet wilds of South Africa, MUs Martha, or somewhere, where fam ily and personality don't matter. That' how, I feel." "Tell me some more, dear," urr-ed Miss Martha, sympathetically.

"1 can Just about imagine the rest though. Been through it all myself from nineteen on. Tou can trust me Ilona, completely." "Guess I know that First place I thought of after the first fit was yours," said Ilona. with a warm smile at her friend. "I know somehow that in a world of misunderstandings, you'd understand.

Thank-goodness, too. They've been at you this morn-v tng, honey? Hammer and tongs, eh?" said Miss Martha. "I can see It. It had to come sooner or later. There's never more than so much peace on earth, after all, dear.

No matter what they tell you. I'va found that out." "But Grace, bless her heart, and Jlmmle are happy, somewhere, Wiles from here, all the same," confided Ilona, with a grin. "That's something to my credit, and to be thankful for, into the bargain." "Aye!" said the other, with a broad smile. "It's wonderful that the little mouse took her future happiness Into her own hands, so to speak, and snapped her fingers under the august noses here, in spite of everything, Isn't it?" "I helped her to you know," said Ilona still grinning.

As western civilization has gone too far in developing the material, so India has gone too far in things spiritual, as seen in the naked Hindu priests who live by beggary, despising food and clothing as belonging to the materal. "Contrary to the ovlnion of most people, Gandhi, the nationalist leader of India, Is chiefly concerned in the spiritual life of the people, and only incidentally in politics. He has aroused as no one ever did before tbe peasant class and the women. He has also united the Hindus and the Mohammedans, although there have been local instances of their union before Gandhi's propaganda. "India Is the home of philosophy and art.

We don't express art as it is done In America. It an American artist wants to paint his conception of modesty he will depict a woman, perhaps nude, with downcast eyes; bu the Indian will Introduce some figure, flower, or idea that will crest in the mind of the onlooker, tins sense of modesty without attempting to outline in form one who Is sup posed to be modest."

The operation was amazingly successful.

The sight Completely returned, and the whole club decided to give the old gentleman a dinner to celebrate the event. The great day arrived and the "boys" were assembled "at 7:15 for 7:30" in the smoking room en masse.
