The class meeting which followed the Sunday school as usual, last week, was very interesting and all seemed willing and eager to take part in the service. Next Sunday our pastor, Rev. J. C. Craig, will be with us again both morning and evening.

Miss L. M. Hendrickson who has been visiting Miss Bod this summer, returned to Kansas City last Thursday. We understand that Mr. J.

Lippincott Company) with a sense of astonishment that so great a man could have been so little known. In any other country on earth he would have had a shining fame known to every man, woman and child in the land. He managed to wield tremendous influence where it would do the most good, however. We have to thank him for the United States fish com- mission, which has stocked all our lakes, streams and coasts with food fishes worth great sums yearly; for the niajrnificient National Museum for which Colonel Roosevelt made his African hunting trip; for the famous I biological laboratory at Wood 's Hole, Massachusetts, where great things are done for the advancement of science pi II 11V.1V JV V14ilJ, and for innumerable other achieve ments of great value.

While Great Britain is the one coun- try involved in the war that has not st an iota of credit; on the contrary, lielPin? her allies without creating rr tional finances. Richards S. Childs, secretary of the National Short Ballot Association and chairman of he National Municipal League committee on commission form of government, states that all the twenty-five cities and towns that employ municipal managers have in- creased service without eorrespond- ingly increased expense. Floating debts have been wiped out, disburse- ments have been kept within appro- priations, and thrift is seen in municipal accounts. He insists that the manager system saves about 11 per cent of the money used for all pur-Kses.

MISSOURI MORE THAN HALF DRY The recent dry victories in Missouri have, pushed the "drys" above the hahv way mark in the state. A careful tabulation shows, according to Dr. Albert Bushnell of the Missouri Anti-Saloon League, that more than half the people of the state live territory that is absolutely dry. For years more than half the territory has been dry, but on account of the large cities a major share of the population has lived in wet territory. The figures, which include the recent dry victories, show that 50.2 per cent of Missouri's entire population lives in territory that ha.3 voted dry and has no saloons.

Between 75 and 80 per cent of the state's territory is dry. Seventy-nine the 114 counties have voted out the saloon entirely and exist under the stringent local option laws forbidding the sale of liquor. Nineteen additional counties are all dry except for one town of more than two thousand five hundred population, which under the present law may vote separately from I the county. Sixteen counties and the city of St. Louis are the only entirely i wet counties in thestate.

"With more than half the population of the state now living in entirely dry territory-, Missouri is going to take bigger strides than ever in the i war to drive out saloons," Doctor Bushnell commented. ently an insistence upon the power of God in the world as is Milton's "Para- dise Lost." To the mind of Tolstoi the whole Napoleonic drama, the vast movements ot masses, the experience of individuals in is a demonstra- tion of the power of. God, moving to its mysterious ends. The French em- peror is the Satan, the Russian com- mander the Michael, the hosts upon i both sides the power of God. Tolstoi came to look back upon bis prime as a godless period in which he indulged intellectual pride and was himself a great sinner.

But the man truly was never irreligious in the worst exhibitions of human passion and destiny he discerned God. The agnosticism of George Eliot, the skep- ticism of his Irench masters, the downright despair of his German teachers, he never really shared. hile the divine ends were unknown to him, he never doubted but that the divine. will controlled. Indeed, "War and Peace" was written to show how Na Smart-Bower The home of District Judge C.

In the same room in which the weddings of the bride's sisters, Mrs. Thomas A. Purton of Salt Lake City and Mrs. Walter Cannon of Topeka were celebrated, in front of the fire- nlaoo in the livinir room, the bridal C3 7 couple stood today while the vows were iuauv ucauium ferns and pretty white asters were used to bank the fireplace.

She wore an especially pretty corsage bouquet of pink roses and her black velvet hat was trimmed in shades of tan harmonizing with her suitt Following the congratulations a delicious wedding dinner was served from one long table in the dining room. The centerpiece was a large bouquet of nasturtiums resting on a plateau mirror, surrounded with yellow tulle.

The small crystal vases at the corners of the table were also tied with tulle bows' and the wedding colors, yellow and white, were prettily carried out in the menu. The wedding guests, limited to only the immediate members of the families were: Mrs. I). G. Bower of Kansas City, mother of the groom, Dr.

You cannot get fat until your digestive tract assimilates the food you eat.

Thanks to a remarkable new scientific discovery, it is now possible to combine into simple form the very elements needed by the digestive organs to help them convert food into rich, fat-laden blood. This master-stroke of modern ehemistrv is tailed Sarsol and has been termed the greatest, of flesh-builders. Sargol aims through its re-generative, reconstructive powers to coax the stomach and intestines to literally soak up the fattening elements of your food and pass them into the blood, where they are carried to every starved, broken-down cell and tissue of your body. You can readily picture the result when this amazing transformation has taken place and you notice how your cheeks fill out, hollows about your neck, shoulders and bust dis-apear and you take on from 10 to 20 pounds of solid, healthy flesh. Sargol is absolutely harmless, inexpensive, efficient.

All leading druggists of Lawrence and vicinity have it and will refund your money if you are not satisfied, as per the guarantee found in every package. Caution: While Sargol has given excellent results in overcoming nervous dyspepsia and general stomach troubles it should not be taken by those who do not wish to gain ten pounds or more.

The; and bloody hopelessness of Haiti has reached the point, in our opinion, where they justify American intervention to stop the endless chain murder carried on hy political feudists. What a miserable insult to biological laws it is to assert that war is necessary to build up a nation in the qualities of personal bravery, manliness and powers of endurance, when it is only the men who have those qualities most highly developed who are sent to the front to be killed, maimed and broken in health, leaving the defectives to perpetuate the species. Henry Starr, the Oklahoma bandit, has pleaded guilty to holding up Stroud National Bank, and been sentenced to twenty-five years in the penitentiary.

Starr is middle-aged, and if he serves his sentence will hardly be eligible as a candidate for governor. Another hallowed tradition of Oklahoma will lose out unless political exigencies down there secure him a pardon. A local advertiser says that the advertising department of the Journal-World set for his firm a better advertisement from the typographical standpoint than a certain other daily with six times its circulation, and ii took the Journal-World force only about one-half the time to set it, and exactly the same space was used. And the results will be better undoubtedly, in proportion to the circulation. One of the most agreeable surprises in the way of business, is the announcement that the Panama canal is now actually on a self-sustaining basis, a thing that none expected or thought possible short of several years development of its needs, and most -painstaking auditing of its expenses and conservation of its income.

The official figures for the period beginning with the opening and ending May 30 show that the heavy deficit of the first few months has been wiped out and $180,000 placed to the credit side. The effort some club women are making to supplant the sunllower with the petunia as the state emblem will never succeed while so many of the old settlers are alive. During the early days of the state the sunflower came near being the only touch of cheery, hopeful color that relieved the dull drab of the prairies. It really has a tremendous hold upon the sentiment of the real jayhawker. Besides, it has an economical value better appreciated in the old days than more recently.

Knowledge of the cost will not prevent a nation's going to war, but at least it means something in etfieiency if a nation enters war with its eyes open.

The United States has been committed to a definite, firm policy by its 'J I president The time has passed for discussion as to the wisdom of his ALASKAN TIMBER FOR U. S. R. R. Engineering Commission to Take 85 Million Feet from National Forest Washington, 1).

August 4. Alaskan Engineering Commission, which is to build the government railroad from Seward on the Pacific 471 miles to Fairbanks in the interior, lias received a permit from the forest service to cut 85 million feet of timber in the Chugach National Forest for use in constructing the new inc. The permit was issued by the district forester at Portland, Oregon, who has direct supervision of the Alaskan forests, and is in conformity with the Act of March 4, last, which authorized the secretary of agriculture to permit the Alaskan engineering commission and the navy department to take from the national forest free of charge earth, stone, and timber for use in government Avorks. The timber will be cut in designated areas along the right-of-way of the proposed railroad, which runs through the Chugach National Forest for several miles. Experiments and tests of Alaskan spruce and nemiock are neing made at the forest service laboratory at Seattle, Washington, and so far have substantiated the opinion of foresters that Alaskan timber is sufficiently strong for practically all structural purposes.

While these tests are going on forest service employes in Alaska are marking the timber to be cut along the proposed railroad, the cutting to be done so that only mature trees are taken, the young trees are being left uninjured and the condition of the forest improved.

Paul, of Perry, Dallas county, Iowa, is in the eity looking at real estate with the idea of investment. Dr. Paul is an enthusiastic Iowa boster and says that there is no place on earth like the great corn It is not uncommon for farm land in Iowa to sell for $400 an acre," said Dr. Paul this morning, "and while that is of course a fancy price, the government agricultural officials say that it is a good investment and that the values will increase." Mr. Paul has an explanation for the decrease in the population of his state, too.

"Ihe reason Iowa has shown a decline in population," he oa.3, uwiii io me nign price of the farm lands. Conditions have got to the point where the small farmer and the renter cannot exist and pay the prices that land is bringing, so they have emigrated to adjoining states where land values are cheaper and where they can rent and make money.
