Mistakes are to be laughed aL If one were to take seriously every little mistake he made life would become a burden to him. Lough at your own lit tle mistakes, and do not fee! grieved if others laugh at them. Laughing-will help you remember to avoid them an other time quite as well as giving away to serious regrets. Some peo- pi© are forever taking themselves to task for some shortcoming. They ax© the over-conscientious ones. If we act foolishly on the impulse of a moment, it Is no more fair to punish ourselves than to punish a child for a little mis take. It is right to look for the error and acknowledge i t If one has wronged another, he ought to confess It and he more careful; then put it out of mind. To grow morose and solemn is to commit a second fault. No one is doing any good to himself or others by constantly eating the bread of peni tence. The only time to remember a mistake is when one is tempted again to the same fault. Daily and hourly keeping up self-reproach, one is worn out. This does not mean never to listen to the warnings of conscience, but to see the fault, start afresh and keep cheerful and hopeful. FRIENDLY TIP. Restored Hope and Confidence. After several years of indigestion and its attendant evil influence on the mind, it is not very surprising that one finally loses faith in things gen erally. A N. y. woman writes an interesting letter. She says: \Three years ago I suffered from an attack of peritonitis which left me in a most miserable condition. For over two years I suffered from nervousness, weak heart, shortness of breath, could not sleep, etc. “My appetite was ravenous hut I ^ felt starved ail the time. I had plenty l\of food but it did not nourish me he- cause of intestinal indigestion. Medi cal treatment did not seem to help. I got discouraged, stopped medicine and did not care much whether T lived or died. “One day a friend asked me \why I didn’t try Grape-Nuts food,‘stop drink ing coffee and use Postum. I had lost faith in everything, but to please my friend I began to use both and poon became very fond of them. “It wasn’t long before I got somd strength, felt a decided change in my system, hope sprang up in my heart and slowly but surely I got better. I could sleep very well, the constant craving for food ceased and I have better health now than before the at« tack of peritonitis. “My husband and T are still usm?» Grape-Nuts and Postum.” Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.

WA1N6 BY WOOD CHIEF OF STAFF TELLS CON GRESSMEN ABOUT SHORTAGE OF AMMUNITION. Ef^OUGH FOR BUT ONE BATTLE Gupply for Field Arilllery Eopeelally lu Short—Lawmakers Spend Money for Guns but Not for Powder and Builett. By GEORGE CLINTON. Washington.—Gen. Leonard Wood soon will retire from his position as chief of staff of the United States army. The other day the general In what may be called perhaps a fare well message of warning told the house committee on military affairs that it ought to appropriate ?3,000,000 for field guns and ammunition for the regular army. Here in brief is the tenor of General Wood’s warning note; “If wb sent out troops into war as they are now, without guns or am munition, it would he absolute slaugh ter. If called Into the field suddenly we should have to go with a very amall allowance of ammunition even for the guns in the hands of the troops, and we should have neither guns nor ammunition enough for our field artillery forces.” There is something to this testi mony of General Wood to make It ex tremely Interesting not only from the military point of view, but from what may be called a legislative point of view. It points up, for the facts are are the general has given them, the peculiarity on occasion of congres sional thought and of congressional action. There are of course many men in the United States, and they are constantly making their influence felt, who, hoping for peace between all the nations of the world, think that disarmament Is the way to bring about concord among the peoples. Guns But No Ammunition. As long as congress continues to vote money for the support of the army and navy it naturally would seem that the money should be well applied and well expended. Here is where one of the peculiarities of con gressional thought and action shows Itself, Every year the lawmakers ap propriate a good deal more than $100,- 000,000 each for the army and the navy. Take the army case of which Gen eral Wood speaks. Men here, and they are not all military men either, are asking what possible use it is for congress to vote large sums of money for field guns, which the uninitiated should know are the light artillery pieces of the service, and also appro priate money for the pay of six regl- menta of field artillery, and yet with hold money tor the purchase of the ammunition .which would make the batteries serviceable. In other words, the curious thing, from a legislative as well as from a military point of view, is why the law makers should ask the tax payers to expend large sums of money for guns tor which there is no possible use, for it does not take a brain of the size of that of Daniel Webster to make a man appreciate that a gun without powder and projectiles to fill it is a pretty useless sort of a weapon. Enough for Only One Battle. It is known to be a fact, for the records show It, that if we were to have a war today with any country worthy the name of a power, our field artillery could not engage in more than one battle with Its present sup ply of powder and shot. It takes a long while to manufacture field artil lery ammunition and to get it to the front. General Wood has said also that there is a very small allowance of ammunition “even for the guns in the hands of the troop.” These guns, of course, are the rifles of the Infantry and the carbines of the cavalry, and also the small arms of the coast ar tillery, for the heavy gun men must serve on occasion as infantrymen. It is understood that the condition so far as our infantry forces are con cerned, is absolutely nothing like so bad as that with which the field artil lery is confronted. The foot soldier with his modern Springfield probably would have cartridges enough to give a good account of himself in many a battle, but the cannoneer of the field forces after a few rounds would be obliged to stand at his caisson or at the mouth of the piece as a mark for the enemy’s riflemen without any chance to return shot for shot. About Canal Zone Rule. It is believed that President Wil son is about to give expression to his views as to the best means to govern the Panama canal zone after the isthmian cauai cominisaioii pasaea out of existence. Secretary of War Garrison already has communicated to the president his ideas as to what ought to constitute a proper system of government for the canal strip. It may or may not be that the president will agree with him. Some time ago Isthmian Canal Com missioner Richard L. Metcalf suggest ed a change in the law which provides for the zone government after the commission is abolished. If Mr. Met calfs ideas shall prevail a part of the law as it stands must he repealed. There are men in congress of all par ties who think that the Metcalf plan Is the only one strong enough to serve the country’s interests at Panama in the executive departments of the zone and to guard the positions from the iinister influences of politics. , ^he law which fixes the fonn o f » government for’ the Panama canal gives great power into the hands of the president It provides tor a one- man rule of the zone. Mr. Metcalf thinks that there should be a three- man rule and one does not have to go far In this town to find support for the Metcalf plan as against the plan which has already been given the force of law. Wo^ld Divide Duties. The law as it is allows the presi dent to appoint either a military man or a civilian to the governorship. If his choice falls upon a civilian the appointee unquestionably will have his military troubles, and if it shall fall upon a military man he unques tionably will have his civilian trou bles. If the Metcalfe plan should b© adopted and a commission of three men should be appointed to govern the Panama canal, one of the mem bers would be a military man, another a physician and sanitarian and the third a layman charged with the du ties of civil administration. Under the existing law the presi dent not only appoints the governor of the zone, but he appoints all ok' the subordinate officials. It is now being asked what will happen if the man chosen for governor happens to be a politician. As governor he naturally would expect to have some thing to say about the men who are to serve under him. In this case the question is would we not have on the Canal Zone political doctors, political civil administrators and political everything else outside of the imme diate ranks of the army? It is known definitely that some of the men who have done great work on the Isthmus fear the coming of the day when politics may enter into the zone's government. The safety of the waterway, for instance, depends absolutely upon the sanitation of the zone. Colonel Gorgas made the place not only habitable, but one in which it is a delight to live. A physician and sanitarian of achievement enough to secure an appointment as a mem ber of the isthmian canal commission certainly could be depended upon to see that his subordinates did their work.. Could equal dependence be placed upon a canal governor sitting alone in authority and being charged with many “Judgment duties” upon some of which he was not qualified by training to pass? Going Eaey on Busineoa. Even in the face of certain knowl edge that -some anti-trust legislation Is to be enacted, it still seems to the Washington observer that for the rest of this session congress will proceed cautiously In the matter of legislation of a far reaching na ture. As has been said before in these dispatches, this does not mean that congress will not have plenty to do. Th® on© thing which seems to b© assured since it came together again is that the Democratic majority has ta ken note .of the sensitiveness of busi ness and is going to spread its legisla^ tion over a considerabie^x>erlod of time in order that coi^ditions may adjust themselves to the coming order. Now that it is certain legislation forbidding th© Interlocking of direc- Ibrates of corporations and some other things is to pass, the attention of busi ness men; as shown by letters which congressmen receive, lo sharply direct ed to the future ahd to Just what is to be expected In the way of laws pre venting the doing of certain things which in th© past some, business men appeared to think they had a right to do. As an example of the intention of the majority in congress to go rather slow with its legislation it may bo said that it probably will be two years before effect will be given to the law which is to be enacted forbidding In terlocking directorates. ' What the business men want to know, as shown by their letters, is what things are to come in the future. It is impossible apparently for con gressmen to answer definitely these letters which come to them. All that the Democratic congressmen can say is that whatever legislation is passed will not he intended to injure the busi ness of the country, but that wrongs will h© righted and that no legitimate business need fear that it will suffer. The word “legitimate,” the Democratic members say, is the on© word of prom ise for those concerns which need any consideration. Republicans Less Outspoken. There is a feeling manifest among Republican members of congress that business depression is hound to follow Democratic legislation intended to sup plant the Sherman act It should be^ said, however, that the Republican members are not talking disaster out loud as they did some time ago. They have found perhaps not only that it was bad politics, but that it was con sidered in many parts of the country as being unpatriotic. It was the charge of lack of patriotism\in crying “wolf,” even if they thought they saw one, which probably has produced the change in the Republican members’ m aiiLcr cf v o icin g th e ir op p o s ition to the administration’s methods of anti trust legislation. A good many of the Republicans re sented the hard times speeches which were made when the Republican na tional committee met here last month. The Republicans who are critical of the speeches which were then made say that the country actually got the impression that the members of the national committee who spoke as they did appeared to be eager for hard times in order to give the Republican party a chance to come hack into power. As things are now it appears the Republicans will cease crying disas ter and w'ill confine their opposition tc the president’s business measures tc arguments in debate based upon whai they think or fear that the outcome will be. IIS FIRST YEtBtTFARMIIIG IN SASUEREWtN Win Premiums and Prizes In Competition With the World. There are thousands of young men filling positions in stores and offices, and. in professional occupations throughout the United States,' who In their earlier life, worked on the farm. The allurements of city life were at tractive, until they faced th© stem reality. These people would have done better had they remained on the farm. Many of them, convinced of this, are now getting “back to the land,” and in the experience, no bet ter place offers nor better opportunity afforded, than that existing in Western Canada. Many of them have taken advantage of it, and there are to he found today, hundreds of such, farm ing in the Provinces of Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta. The con ditions that surround farming opera tions today are so much superior to thj^se In existence during their early farming days, that there is an attrac tion about it. Imprbved machinery, level and open plains, no rocks to shun, no trees to cut down, but wide stretches with mile-long furrows, ele vators to handle the grain, railways to carry It to market, and bring almost to their doors th© things necessary to operate. Splendid grazing areas, ex cellent opportunities for raising cattle. These things are all so different from what they once were that there Is rea son to speak of the attractions. R. H. Crossman of Kindersley, Saskatche wan, the man who won such splendid prizes at th© International Dry Farm ing Congress held at Tulsa, Oklahoma, last fall, grew the prize grains during his first year farming. Up to 1913 he was an engineer and the only knowl edge he had of farming was that ob tained when he was a hoy. That was very useful; in fact it was valuable to him. He had not forgotten it. Thousands with as little experience as he had can do well by taking up one of the 160-acre grants offered by the Canadian government. — Advertise ment. W a ste of Pow d e r.

Lines of trucks were bucking each oth er east and west, when out from a prpduce store came a cat, and dang ling from her mouth was a kitten, with which she essayed to cross the street. Each time she started she had to turn back because of a truck, and her efforts soon attracted a crowd of idlers. Down from th© comer came a po liceman. He soon saw what was the matter, and while there was nothing in the traffic regulations to cover point, It took the bluecoat only a mo ment to decide what to do. Going into the street he raised his hands In the way that truckmen have learned means “Stop.” They stopped. The cat, seeing her opportunity, took a firmer hold on the nape of her prod igy, and then, holding it high to keep its curved tail out of the mud, she slowly and deliberately picked her way across and disappeared in a cellar. im p o rtant to Wlothers^, .
