An insurance man says-it is possible to live 300 years. But the lif-s insurance companies do not take this povibility into ac count In figuring their actuary Ubles. Pcsfibly they may. In time. It would be an inte' i ng lliing to live 300 years in Salem. Ores'ou, to w'tness the constant growth and development and im provement. Salem will spread out a lot in 300 years, and no one will be able to tell where the city ends and the country begins in very much leas time . with the pared highways and delivery of mails and newspapers and tele phones and the electric ligiit aud power lines and buzz wagons of high and low degree. FILMS AND ROYALTY Nations he would go further and carry better. PRAYER The royal palace of the Hohen zollerns in Berlin is being used as a film studio for the moment. A notable picture is, being filmed hat deals with the career of Frederick the Great and it has been found convenient to locate the whole machinery in and around the old palace. Part of the shots will be at the Sans Souci palace at Potsdam, but it seems to be agreed that the pal aces of royalty now belong in the movies. Instead of drawing royalty for a picture we will hare royalty In them.

When the door had closed be hind Jim, Lillian looked at me with eyes In which lurked a twin kle- Feas up now" she said, "that you're wondering why un der the sun I din't wait until to morrow morning to tell Jim what I wanted him to do." "Such a thought has crossed my alleged brain," I smilingly ad mitted.' "I don't blame you," she re plied, "and I wouldn't have told a man of another type than Jim. It will take him all night to turn the thing over in his mind, and get it all settled to his own satis faction. It he had been compell ed to go on such an errand knowing the importance of It. and the Imperative necessity for se crecy with but a few minutes' notice he would have been com pletely rattled. As it Is, Jim will be a regular sleuth tomorrow with nerves of steel." , "Who but you could have read Jim that way!" I exclaimed, and the words were no idle ones. What Lillian Suggested. "Wrap the nosegays in tinfoil until we get through ' with this business. I haven't time to make a bow. now," Lillian said impu dently. but I knew that behind her mifth lay grim truth, and 1 straightened myself into an atti tude of attention and waited tor ner lunner aircctions. "Didn't you say this Walters chap has a sister you know very well?" she asked after a few min utes' thought. "Yes. Esther,"-1 replied. "She was a favorite pupil of mine last year." "Know her well enough to call her up and ask her and her bro ther over this evening tor a game of bridge!" "Of course." "Then do it. pronto.- Lillian rose and stretched her arm? wearily. "Make the invitation so cordial "and insistent that when is repeated to the brother he will suspect there is something up and break any other engagement he may have made." j , Significant Wfcrds. ; "What '11 we do with the rest of the family?'' Kventured as 1 turned toward the door. "I'll drop a word in your fa ther's ear that will keep him out of the way, while as foe your mo ther-in-law, you know that the merest hint to the effect that there is some mysterious planning going on will send her to her room in the seventh heaven or thrilling suspense." We both laughed merrily at the remembrance or several occas ions when my mother-in-law's fondness for anything that savor ed of melodrama in real life had reduced her usual arbitrary hau teur to abject meekness and Obedience to orders. "As for the Dicky-bird." Lillian went on. answering my unspoken question, "it isn't likely he'll hop j into the nest before the strange j birds fly away. But if he does.1 leave him to me. I'll clip his wings." - I permitted myself a bit ot wondering speculation on my way down the stairs to the tele phone as to the plan Lillian had for getting possession of the desk. That she had some defin ite course of action mapped out 1 was sure, but with my slower wits I could not guess what she meant to do. I could obey her orders, how ever, and in another minute I had called the Walters home and was listening to a deep, masculine voice, which I recognized at once as that ot the young attorney. "Mr. Arthur Walters speak ing." the voice said crisply. "How do you do, Mr. Walters." I 6aid with my very best air for the benefit of any listening opera tor. "This is Mrs. Graham. Is Esther there?" "Net Just now." His voice held a note ot irrepressible astonish ment. "She went -out on an er rand for mother. But she will be back within ten minutes-" . ."Oh, that will be all right then!" I said. "Mrs. Underwood and I wondered if you and Es ther could not run over tonight and take a hand at bridge. We are the only fiends in our fami lies, and we haven't had a game in ages. It really is imperative that you come and join us " I tried to throw a significance into ray last words that I hoped he would recogniie. And I could not repress a smile at my ae scription of Lillian and n'elf bridge fiends. Lillian. if sn chooses, plays a brilliant game, but the pastime bores her to death, while I am one of the per sons who possess absolutely no card sense at all- . Mr Walters waited a minute that seemed an hour before an swering. When he did speak his voice was casual. "We shall be very glad to come over." The new chaplain very much wanted to amuse as well as in struct his men and, according, on one occasion, arranged lor an Il lustrated lecture on Bible scenes and Incidents. One seaman who possessed a phonograph was detailed to dis course appropriate music between pictures. The first of these rep resented Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. The sailor cud geled his brains and ran through his list but he could think of no music exactly appropriate to the picture. Please play up whispered the chaDlain. Then an Inspiration came to the seaman and to the consternation' of the chaplain and the delight ot the audience, the phonograph ground out "Theres Only One Girl In the vcr:a;w rN -Harper's Magazine. j Thanksgiving SHOE SALE Begins November 23rd Wait ii a n r """ KEEP WARM WITH COKE We showed in our last ad. how many B.

Facts About the Catholic Church BT 1E7. J. K. lirCX Whan the I'nion had to far ita first great pari), the Civil War, the propor ion of Catholic in the inna anar aa doable the. proportion that the Catholic bore to the whole population, again enow tne the patriot iam taught br Cath olie church. A whole host of Catholic cenerala helped to preaerre the t mon among them Sheridan, Rosecrana, Buell, Shields and Mulliran. In paat years when emigration to the IT.- S. from virions part of Europe was the heaviest, some of our big cities were more than half populated by tkese for eiraers. They rame with strange cna toms. language and inclinationa. Every person must see that these cities would no longer merit the appelation "Amer ican" unless there were some unifying power amalgamating then witn tno native-born and making them good, law abiding .citizens, and our obssrvsnt men give almost full credit for this invalu able service to the Catholic church. The sameness of the Catholic church here with the Catholic church they knew in their own land, made them feet welcome in here membership and at home in her temples. Foreign children were able to attend parochial school where teacher and priest knew their own language; here they were trained in virtue as well as knowledge, in patriotism as well as re bgien. and the country of their adoption became dearer to them than the country of their birth. If this government it to endure and he glorious it i not sufficient that it be based fss it is on Christisn prin ciples. Those who gOTern the people, who make and execute our laws, who teach in our schools, must be imbued with Christian principles. Thousands will agree with Lyman Abbott who ssid. "De velopment of intelligence without s con current development of the moral nature does not suffice. For the continued safe I ty of our government as now constituted. it is necessary that educsttoa tend, to make our children good as well as learned ritiiens; it must be applied to the heart and conscience well ss the head. But only about two millions of our children are receiving aq education of tkia kind, and we ssy it with pride. thorgh it mar seem boastful), nearly all of them are in the Catholic schools. We are not minimising our public schools. for under existing circumstances, they rsnnot teach religion only in a general way. hot it is often puzzle to know that our Catholic schools are so malign ed, even though we do not ask outsider to bear their expense, and bring great an-, heroic sacrifices in order tnst our rhi'dren msy be educsted in a way, that agsi nand again has proven so beneficial to cur country.
