FOR FLETCHER'S
C ASTO R I A
WHY SHAN'T IT?
Text, "Thou shalt not."-Ex. xx, 1, i.
"Thou shalt not!" Who said so? And
why shan't I? Isn't man a free ngent,
with power to do as he pleases? Would
the divine Out rob us of our personal
liberty? It Is the dearest thing human
ity has. The passion for It has illu
mined the pages of history with crim
son mid gold, colors fulrer thnn monk
ever luld on parchment nilssul. The
struggle for it has transfigured heath,
moor and bill Bunnoekburni Hustings,
Bunker Hill. It was this that "the
stars heard and the seu, while the
joundlug Isles of the dim wood rang
with the anthems of the free." It Is
this fine respect for one's own self and
his liberty that makes us choose our
own home though It be a shack, our
owu work though it be breaking stones,
our own prayers though they be crude
and unlovely. Somehow we like the
forbidden. No apple tempts the boy
like the forbidden. The bnu on a cer
tain "swimming hole" is half the
charm. Where turkey trotting is for
bidden "everybody's doing It." Col
lege boys cut chapel as though the fif
teen minutes spent there were life Im
prisonment. What right has any one
to forbid anything? The "Thou shalt
not" Is unjust and uncalled for. At
least so it seems. ,
Tho Funeral of Liberty.
I have a lllieral friend who lives In
Philadelphia. IIo complains that per
sonal liberty Is dead in that city. It's
all over but the funeral. I took lunch
with him the other day, and we talked
things over. I see It all now. Once
a man living In the City of Brotherly
Love had some privileges, but no long
er. Once every one had some rights;
they're all gone now. Years ago, when
the various boroughs united and the
city took a charter, housekeepers could
throw their ashes and potato parings
out In the street; now you hare to
wait for a wagon to come around.
Once a man could have any old sort
of cesspool around his premises and
It wus nobody's business. Germs could
go flying around. Doctors and druggists
had a chance to live. Then somebody
had to Invent a board of health; now
you've got to put in pipes and drains.
Once a fellow could build any sort of
frame shack right In the heart of
the city; then some fresh budding city
stutesman with bugs about architec
tural beauty and fire dangers objected;
now It must be brick or stone. They
closed up the pump on the front side
walktyphoid. Huh! Formerly any
oue with smallpox or diphtheria could
come or go; now they even paste a
yellow placard on your door. You
daren't spit In the street cars, run a
speak easy, practice medicine without
a degree or sell drugs without a diplo
ma. And that's in Philadelphia! No
wonder the Liberty bell Is cracked!
"224."
Whether you staud watching the cof
ferdams, giant dredges, furreaobing
cranes and the army of workmen at
Keokuk, on the Mississippi, or at Me-
Call's ferry, on the Susquehanna, you
leurn that the free waters of the rivers
can get to their full power only by
restriction. Man, too, reaches his full
power only by a check on his freedom.
That's a great basic principle. Mount
Sinai was simply the place and the
Ten Commandments the statement
Law Is not law because It Is bound In
a leather hook. Punishment for sin
Is not true because it is in the Bible,
but It Is In the Bible because it Is true.
The Ten Commandments are not law
because they are In the old book, but
they are there because they are eter
nal law. It doesn't even matter wheth
er Moses received them direct from
God or not Don't be angry at the
Decalogue. Don't blame Newton If
the apple falls downward nor the cook
book If the hot water cracks the glass
fruit jar. Some things are basic and
organic. Moral laws are fundamental,
like mathematics. Two plus two equal
four always. Make it three, you'll
land In the poorhouse; make It five,
you'll finish In the penitentiary. In a
world of change It Is good some things
are fixed. Law is one. Law Is the
throne on which the Almighty sits.
"Running by Signals."
Every trainman knows Just what
each white and green and red light
means. Signals they are, set for his
safety and the public's. Sometimes a
man is careless or willful or "takes a
chance." When the dead are taken to
the morgue, the wounded to the hos
pital and the wrecking crews are clear
ing the roadbed we are painfully Judi
cial of the man who "runs by his sig
nals." Your life's track is full of them
between start and terminus. Your doc
tor waves the green flag of caution.
Your baby says as you settle comfort
ably down into your Sunday paper,
"Papa, why do you never come to
church with us?" Whew! A baby hand
waving a lantern God warns that way
sometimes! The Decalogue is God's
book of dunger signals. Thou shalt
not! Don't ask why. God's revelation
begins with commandments. It may
take you some time to spell them out
"Mustn't touch stove, baby!" Your
"Thou shalt not" has a loving reason.
So has God's! Don't let It embarrass
you to learn that you must believe
first and reason afterward. Your mul
tiplication was learned before you
could prove it. Indeed, most of your
knowledge came that way. Safety gate
at the head of your nursery stairs?
Why? You love your "kiddles?" God
loves you!
AN ESKIMO DINNER
It Was Not Very Dainty, but It
Was a Satisfying Feast.
SEAL MEAT AND BLOOD SOUP.

Hand, and the 8eeond In Musk Ox

ity Extended to Explorer 8tefansaon.
" An interesting description of the hos
pitality of Eskimos Is given by Vilhjal
mar Stefansson In his paper. "My
Quest In the. Arctic," in Harper's Mag.
azlne. At one stage of his adventures
the writer found himself among Eski
mos who had never before seen white
people. He says:
"Like our distant ancestors, no
doubt, these people fear most of all
things the evil spirits that are likely
to appear to them at any time in any
guise, and next to that tbey fear stran
gers. Our first greeting had been a
bit doubtful and dramatic through our
being mlstuken for spirits, but now
they bad felt of us and talked with us
and knew 'e were but common men.
Strangers we were, it is true, but we
were only three among forty of them
und were therefore not to be feared.
Besides, they told us they knew we
could harbor no guile from the free
dom and frankness with which we
came among them; for. tbey said, a
man who plots treachery never turns
his back to those whom he intends to
stab from behind.
"Before the bouse which they imme
diately built for us was quite ready
for our occupancy children came run
ning from the village to announce that
their mothers bad dinner ready. The
houses were so Bmull that it was not
convenient to invite all three of us
Into the same one to eat; besides, It
was not etiquette to do so, as we now
know. ' Each of us was therefore tak
en to a different place. My host was
the seal hunter whom we had first ap
proached on the Ice. His house would,
he said, be a fitting one iu which to
offer me my first meal among them,
for his wife bad been born farther
west on the mainland coast than any
one else in their village, and it was
even said that her ancestors bod not
belonged originally to their people, but
were Immigrants from tho westward
She would therefore like to ask me

"It turned out however, that his
wife was not a talkative person, but
motherly, kindly and hospitable, like
all ber countrywomen. Her first ques
Hons were not of the land from which
I came, but of my footgear. Weren't
my feet Just a little damp, and might
Bhe not pull my boots off for me and
dry them over the lamp? She had
boiled some seal meat for me, but she
had not boiled any fat, for she did not
know whether I preferred the blubber
boiled or raw. They always cut it in
small pieces and ate it raw themselves,
but the pot sail bung over the lamp,
and anything she put Into It would
be cooked In a moment
"When I told ber that my tastes
quite coincided with theirs, as in fact
they did. she was delighted. People
were much alike then, after all. though
they came from a great distance. She
would accordingly treat me exactly as
If I were one of their own people
come to visit them from afar.
"When we had entered the house the
boiled pieces of seal meat had already
been taken out of the pot and lay
steaming on a sideboard. On being as
sured that my tastes In food were not
likely to differ from theirs, my hostess
picked out for me the lower Joint of
a Beal's foreleg, squeezed It firmly be
tween her hands to moke sure noth
ing should later drip from it, and
handed it to Die, along with her own
copper bliuli'd knife. The next most
desirable piece was similarly squeezed
and handed to her husband, and others
In turn to the rest of the family.
"As we ate we sat on the front edge
of the bed platform, holding each his
piece of meat lu the left hand and the
knife In the right. This was my first
experience with a knife of native cop
per. I found it more than sharp
enough and very serviceable.
"Our meal was of two courses the
Drat, meat; the second, soup. The soup
Is mode by pouring cold seal blood into
the boiling broth Immediately after the
cooked meat has been taken out of the
po tand stirring briskly until the whole
comes nearly but never quite to a
boll This makes a soup of a thickness
comparable to our Eugllsh pea soup,
but If the pot be allowed to come to a
boll the blood will coagulate and settle
to the bottom. When the soup is a
few degrees from boiling the lamp
above which the pot Is swung Is ex
tinguished and a few bundfuls of
snow are stirred Into the soup to bring
It to n temperature at which It can be
freely drunk By means of a small dip
per the housewife then fills the large
musk ox born drinking cups and as
signs one to each person. If the num
ber of cups is short two or more per
sons may share the contents of one cup
or a cup may be refilled when one is
through with It and passed to another.
"After I had eaten my fill of fresh
sen! meat and drunk two pint cnpfuls
of blood soup my host and I moved
farther' back on the bed platform,
where we could sit comfortably, prop
ped up against bundles of soft caribou
skins, while we talked of various
things."
Adversity has tbe effect of eliciting
talents which in prosperous circum
stances would have lain dormant

Special Jlotict
Under this plan your money re
mains at home in your own bank
until you are reasonably ready to
visit the Fair. Then, either directly
or through your local representa
tive you notify the company of the
date of your departure stating
route, class, etc. In accordance
your transportation together with
credentials for all the above list
of features will be sent to your
bank. When found satisfactory,
your bank turns the tour over to
you and sends the required amonut
to the company out of your Tour
savings.
Phase Observe
While a Tours contract Is dis
tinctly attractive to those of mod
erate means, it is also attractive
to persons of wealth, who appre
ciate economy, comfort and con
venience; for in no other way
could you or anyone else obtain
a complete Tour at anything like
the total cost of this one. Nor
could you obtain your transporta
tion, travel to Frisco, attend the
Fair with anything 'ike the con
venience and the satisfaction this
system provides, including tho
Free Information Bureau of the
Tours Company at Frisco, the at
tentions enroute, etc.
Important
While the motive back c this
plan is clearly one of business ca'
ci lated to pay its way, earn div
idends and swell the attendance
of tie greatest show the worll
has ever seen, there is still anothei
idea that will appeal directly to
you it gives you and every one
en opportunity to see the Fair
without missing a penny of the
cost and it also incites thrift, the
habit of saving clowly to reap
greater ends among young people
who have perhaps never thought
of a stvings account
