Like Columbus and most others who broke away from the old tradi Hons, Vena 11 us was punished for his g reatnes. He served as an Instructor in three different universities In Italy and France, one of them Padua. His trouble arose when he was called to Spain by Charles V. He wa In fa vor there for a time but wa con stantly under a fire of criticism by the skeptics of the old school. At one time the prejudice aroused against him was so great he escaped only by promising to make a pllgrlmmage to the Holy Land.

O'er tossing wastes we mil and cry, "Oh give us water, or we die!" On high, relentless waves we roll Through arid climates for the soul; '.N'eulh parching skies we punt for breath, Smlt with the thirst that drags to death. And fail, while faint for fountains far. To drop our buckets where we are. Oh. ship ahoy! You're sailing bn The broad mouth of the Amazon, Whose mighty current flows and sings Of mountain streams and Inland springs, Of nlt-ht-klHHed morning's dewy balm, Of heaven-dropt evening's twilight calm, Of niit'ire's peace In earth and star Just drop your bucket where you are Seek not for fresher founts afar, J'iHt drop your bucket where you are And while the ship right onward leaps. Uplift it from exhaustless deeps, Oull not your life with dry despair; The stream of hojie flows everywhere Ho, under every sky and star, Just drop your bucket where you are! Ham Walter Koss.

One of our western senators, who possewtes a rather Irascible temper, has a habit on days when everything seems to go wrong, of sliding the clerks employed by his eornmlttee. Not Ions; sgo, during a session of the senate, the western solon had ex pressed a desire thst one of his clerks prepare a tabulated statement of cer tain trade statist!' of the United States. This statement ws accord ingly prepared end laid before th testy senator, who trlanee1 at It with an air that boded trouble. In a mo ment he looked up arid exclaimed: "Hee br, Morton, (his won't do. Why didn't you prepare this state ment on the typewriter? These fig ures are disgraceful. Any 12-year-ob sehooihoy could do better than that. Vk th;.t three? it looks for all the world like a five! No one would take It for anything else. Just look at It!" "I beg pardon, senator replied Charles D. Hllles, chairman of the republican national committee, sees a republican victory In the national election In 181. A gain of eight state over the election of 1912 has been made, he said. He named them New York, Maine, New Jersey, Ohio, Montana, Nevada, Went Virgin it and Washington. H continued: "The Ixsue in 1914 was the tariff, and every slate where the effect of the Underwood bill had time to be felt went republican. Every great manu facturing state and every great labor center repudiated the democratic par ty and voiced condemnation of its record since it came into full control of the government. The disastrous effects of the new tariff have not yet been fully felt in tho .great agrlcul tural states or the west, but even there tho reaction against dehiocracy was unmistakable. . "The lusue In 1916 will be square ly on the tariff and the legislation of the democratic pnrty. During the next two years tho country will have a greater opportunity to study the ef fect of the present tariff, to note re sults and to compare them with the republican polio of protection of Am erican Industries and American labor" A large industry located in New York recently cancelled all other forms of advertising and doubled its newspaper appro priation. It is carrying out a national cam paign and appealing directly to consumers. It is using large, forceful, well written copy and it is increas ing its sales. It is only another evidence that the trend of national advertising is towards the newspapers. foiiiiiiuiMimwniwmimuMmiimMiHWiuiHiMiniinM!
