MAGNIFIED INIQUITIES It's strange how the mountain labors and brings forth a mouse, and the guiuier occasionally shoots at a lion and slays a wren. Debate, which smacked of the acrimonious, was indulged in by i council this week concerning the closing o'i a few stoves which have heretofore been permitted to be open Sundays. The talk was inspired by a resolution recently adopted by a Sunday school convention, asking that such action be taken in the interests of the fuel supply of the nation, as well as to protect the morals of children.

These children, it was stated in a vague way, might start for bath school and be lured into some nameless den of iniquity to learn more about the profane use of the names of the Deity than their sacred significance. The mayor and Councilman Shana-felt stood out stoutly against such drastic measures. They did not want to revive the sleeping blue laws of the state, but they were overruled and a resolution was passed declaring that stores doing business on Sunday would be amenable to the statutes If specific cltarges were lodged Egainbt their proprietors. This was the only concession the mayor would make. He said he would disturb no one unless 3 complaint was filed with him, giving the name of the offender, the date of the atrocity committed and its character.

To this will have to be added the names of those bringing the charges. That will doubtless act as a sedative to the social purists who would see New Castle made into a village churchyard. Resolutions against fancied evils can be supported with complacency when one is screened more or less by others in a rising vote at a convention. To actually and personally bring criminal charges of this nature is another thing, from which the average reformer shrinks. The only places of business open here on Sunday are a few cigar stores, news stands and fruit emporiums, none of which, it is safe to assume, is conducted in such a licentious and unholy manner as to demoralize REMEMBER: The President on January 18, 1918, Proclaimed Mondays Yednesdays.

CKT SOMEBODV KISE The Lord had a job for me; but I had so much to do I said: "You get somebody else, or wait till I get through." I don't know how the Lord came out; no doubt he got along; But I felt kind o' sneakin' like! I knew I'd done Ood wrote. One day I needed the Lord needed Him right away; But He never answered me at all, and I could hear Him say Down in my accusin' heart: "Child, I've got too much to do; You get somebody else, or wait till I get through." Now when the Lord has a job for me, I never try to shirk; I drop what I have on hand and do the Lord's good work.

And my affairs can run along or wait t'll tret through; Nobody else can do the work that God nas marked out for you. (Adapted from Paul Laurence Dunbar.) Ladies' Home Journal.

LUKE McLUKE SAYS Anyway, a pessimist avoids a lot of disappointment, in that he never finds, anything better than he expected it to be. Never laugh at an ugly man unless you are certain that yon are above suspicion in that particular yourself. Isn't it funny what a mistaken idea you can get of a woman's appearance when you judge her by her telephone voice? The oid-fashioned woman who used to believe that anyone who took a glass of beer was headed straight for the Bad Place now has a daughter who has to have a dry martini before breakfast. Every merchant knows that if he can s'et you to look long enough you will buy. The reason a small boy likes to go to school on Monday morning is because a bird gets corns on its feet from walking because it can't fly.

Another strange thing is a father's pride in the fact that he thinks his monkey-faced baby resembles him. And many a man would love his neighbor if he wasn't afraid of his wife catching Mm at it.

It is difficult to suggest any particular line for a man of your broad selling experience. 1 should advise you to watch the advertisements in such journals as Printers' Ink, Advertising and Selling and System.

Will you kindly decide through the Business Career the following controversy? A.

employs B. to sell a line of mer-ctianaise at strictly net prices, B. to get 10 per cent on all hisv sales. B. takes an order for $10,000 and on his own initiative he gives the customer discount of 12 Vi per cent.

After B. has taken the order he arranges with his firm as follows: B. agrees to accept five per cent commission in place of 10 per cent; A. agrees to stand the 7Vi per cent, making the total of 12H per cent allowed the customer. B.

now claims his five per cent commission on the gross amount of the order; namely, $10,000. A. claims he is n-tltled to five per cent on $8,750. you kindly decide who is correct? S. A.

Li. depends on what basis previous commissions were paid, whether on in- voice price or on net cash paid. On the face of it I should think A. is correct; certainly B. is hoggish to expect his firm cut its profits per cent and then give him a commission on the $1,250 that it doesn't get.

Mine is the layman's view, and I believe the moral and sensible one. Matters of this kind are best adjusted in spirit of tolerance and fair play. If that doesn't act, see a good lawyer and find out the legal standpoint. (Copyright). The Dormer Window VXCXK JASPER SAYS: D-d-doan be dieencouraged.

Indeed, legislation to thio effect has been prepared and will be brought before the next sitting of the legislature. To offset this insidious influence, meetings have been called in various parts of the state, under auspices of the Wild Life league, to which every citizen is invited.

New Castle's meeting will be held Thursday night. Whoever is behind this rumored nugatory legislation, which cannot help but be nefarious in its application, either has something up his sleeve or has given the food supply problem little intelligent thought. The Wild Life league and those familiar with conditions, have for years favored protection of feathered game, largely because wild birds are a potent factor in agriculture, by keeping down insect pests which, if permitted to multiply unchecked, would destroy much of the crops of the farms. Wiping out wild birds would leave grain at the mercy of these voracious pests, thus cutting down food rations for cattle, and thereby reducing the meat supply, which promoters of the anti-game law campaign say they wish to conserve. It would be like cutting off one end and attaching it to the other end of a rope to make the rope longer.

These facts and others equally convincing will be brought out at tomorrow night's meeting and a profitable discussion of the whole question should result. JEADOUSV A national temperance organization headed by William Jennings Bryan has started a movement for immediate abolition of booze in all its forms. The new society seeks to enlist all other similar organizations of whatsoever form and character. From the ranks of the W. C.

T. U. and the Anti-Saloon league comes a protest at this high-handed method of absorbing the'm bag and baggage. They do not want to lose their identities. They have worked long and well to promote prohibition and now they feel that the fruits of their labors are to be snatched from them, and credited to an infant organization, born just when victory is In sight.

An effort is being made to restore harmony and induce these worthy societies to subscribe to the tenet3 and purposes of Mr. Bryan's National Dry federation. These protests are natural, and very human. It is hoped, however, that all animosities can be mollified order not to hamper the prohibi- tion movement, which has assumed an economic as well as a huminatar- ian aspect at this hour. The prohibition of distilled or malted bever ages means more today than ever before.

It spells conservation of needed food supplies in order that America may not go down in defeat before German barbarian. Jealousies will arise in every body men and women, organized for no matter what noble purposes. Taking the large, altruistic view, the W. C. U.

and kindred societies should be glad to merge their efforts with any body, under whatever name, which seeks the same emancipation from vice so long fought for by older organizations. The goal is the thing not the means by which it is reached, the nomenclature of its successful aspirant or the personnel of its leadership. But it takes a person of broad vision, perhaps more than mortal perception, to relinquish a hard-won victory to another. The same spirit is noticed in the Red Cross, where, of places, it should be entirely absent. Willing workers engage in the activities of chapters with smiling eyes and a great desire in their hearts to help.

Then, whet crude and often unsatisfactory efforts, are not rewarded with praise the worker believes he or is entitled to, a feeling of pique takes the place of the former desire aid. Red Cross leaders are criticized for being too particular and are even accused of striving for personal aggrandizement by those whose la- bors are not up to the mark. This is a false notion, and must dispelled at once if workers are to In harmony and attain the desired nd. Petty resentments have no place in thi3 work of love which calls self-effacement as perhaps no other occupation does. One's indl- vidual accomplishments or deftness along certain lines should not puff him up and give him a feeling of superiority.

One should be humbly thankful that his attainments enable to better assist in promoting the reat ChriFtian cause. There is nothing personal, or should not be. Red Cross, work, or any other task f-onnected with winning the war. The motto of Dumas' Three Musketeers a a By HAROLD 243 Say! I haven't told that funny thing I heard yet, have Well, I'll do it now. Bruno Duke told it to us after the salesmanship class last Thursday.

Duke sure had some life. lie seems to have been everywhere and done most everything- worth doing- and when we can get him yarning-, he'll keep us laiiehlne- everv minute of the time. He was telling: us about the time he was a school teacher in Maine. This incident happened the year he was living at the Stave's house. It seemed that the old minister was a rather well-to-do man strange to say and had built a house that was the wonder of all the village Tho viiiino-o folk used to tell every visitor that they must see old Doctor Perrlcle's house before leaving.

For one thing, it had a bathroom with a real bath just like Portland swell folks had. But the wonder of all was an elevator! Old Doctor Perricle had a brother' who had stiffening of the joints and couldn't Bret UDstairs. so the hearted doctor had the elevator put In so that brother could get upstairs by himself. He could get around on I level ground but couldn't get up steps, No, this elevator wasn't any electric or hydraulic arralr. It worKea oy weight power.

The elevator was built' into one corner of the living room. The rope which worked it was carried over a big pulley wheel and had a weight on the other end of it that was equal to the weight of the elevator and tlje brother and, as the brother weighed two hundred and forty pounds, it was some handy little paper-weight to have hanging under the eaves. No one was allowed to use the ela-vator on account of the weight adjustment. It was easy for brother to'- operate for when in the elevator he removed steel pin which held the elevator on; the ground floor. Then the least pull at a fixed rope sent the elevator then so nicely balanced up to the bedroom, at which place the weight rested on the floor of the room over the dining room ceiling.

The elevator was fine for brother, but risky for lightweights. The hired maid tried to use it once -only once. She got in the elevator, pulled out the pin, and it at once gave an imitation of a sky rocket. Being a lightweight, the elevator just shot up and catipu- lated her into the bedroom while the weight banged on the dining room ceiling with a whack that shook loose some of the plaster. This was the house to which Bruno Duke was invited one day.

Old Doctor Perricle was going to give a party and everybody who anybody was i there. A light collation (as they called i itl was waiting to be eaten In the dining room and not in vain, lor sev-, wherein the ability and qualities pos-eral of the young folks were already sessed by an advertisinic specialty doing their bit while light music from piano (played by the organist) was struggling with the conversation. I'm trying to tell this like Bruno Duke did, but it's some job to get across like he did never mind. This is what was going on when he got there. He and Brother Perricle hit it off together right away.

Bruno Duke was shy with the young folks, but felt at home with Brother P. They were busy mokina their pipes and talking of different things when Puke spoke of his fondness for chess. Brother Perricle. it seemed, was a rhes fiend dud had a wonderful s't carved, ivory chessmen, wbich fa at is on i he s.
