THE DEADLY FEATHER DUSTER A few years more and , the picturesque feather duster will be no morel Time was when no play, problem or otherwise, could properly bo opened without the assistance of a petite French maid with an Irish accent gracefully wield ing a harmless-looking feather duster over the immaculate furnishings, and when no bride's go-to-housekeeping outfit was complete without one of these deadly contraptions. Most women have learned that the feather duster, far from removing the dust, merely scatters it, and that the bacteria-laden particles ' which were harmless enough when lying quiet be come dangerous when lifted up and scattered around to be breathed In by their children, and so they have re placed the object with the less ornate but far more sanitary dampened dust cloth. But there are many unenlight ened, and among these a crusade of cleanliness should certainly be waged.

Revolution in Russia strengthens the belief of Dr. James E. Crowther, pastor of the First Episcopal church. Seattle, that the rreat outcome ot tne present war will be the overthrow of absolutism throughout the world. He came to Portland yesterday for the congress of the Multnomah County Christian Endeavor union. Last year in Portland at the Lay men' Missionary conference he made. the predlcelon that on of tne resuus of th war would be the establishment of a constitutional monarchy in bus sis. Fulfillment of his prediction has come far earlier and on a more raai. cal scale than he expected. Xnssiaa Sftavolt aslraculoas. "This revolution-in Russia is noth lng short of miraculous," said be at the Hotel Portland. 'Far more to be expected was a movement by the Ger man people looking towsrd democra tization of the German government. "It may com yet when the people of Germany at least learn the causes of th war and awake to the menaces of militarism and Prussianlsm. We know little of what Is really going on in Germany but it is evident that the leader ar keeping up the spirits of th people by promise which some day will b shown to be lmpossibl ot fulfillment, and then will com an awakening. Oarmaay will Be liberated. T am so thoroughly convinced that war will make for democratization of Germany that I. doubt whether the present crown prlnc will be called upon to succeed to the throne. I be llev the kaiser's successor will be a Bavarian, or some other German, not a Prussian. "Bethman-Hollweg's speech In the reichstag the other day relating the concessions and reforms that the gov ernment proposes to make at the end of the war was entirely unnecessary They are bound to come; they can't help but come in the nature of things, World Movement Begins. "Ther Is a great world movement afoot today. It is a, movement that will result In democratization ot church and state the world over. I believe one result of this war will be th disestablishment of the Church of England. The Church of Scotland has been disestablished and the Church ot Wales was disestablished, largely through the efforts of Lloyd George before the war, although the carrying out of the disestablishment has been postponed until times ot peace. "Farseeing leaders of the Anglican church realise, ' however, that the -church tied up with the government ot England is not Independent. It may be wealthy through this connection but it is not free. More and more Is the government of England being de mocratised. Tbe present eabinet is largely non-conformist. Of recent years non-conformist have been re ceiving honors at th hands ot the king.

It is a pro test of a large portion of the Russian peonle against th pro-Germanism of th Russian court, existent in face of a war against Germany. "The czarina is a German and it is well understood that the czar is th vice president of the family. The Rus sian bureaucracy has been largely under the sphere ot German Influence. The people aroused, however, have ev idently voiced their disapproval of the government' course in the uprising. It should be to the benefit of Russia and some effect on the state church 1 also to be looked for. x Coloale Will Benefit Oreatly. , "This movement toward tbe de mocratization of th world grows and grows.

But with India and Egypt loyal to Great Britain and th bursting of former ties this danger is passed. I look for a reborn Germany.- nid of the idea of world dominion, freed from the menace of militarism, th peopie 01 uermany win come to real ise that thj-reatest good for their country and race will come from strtv- . lng to lirt themselves up, and not la pushing themselves out.
