USED STRING TO STIR ANGER
Twine Swung In Air, London --man
Explained Indicated Other Cab
by's Brother Was Hanged.
The conversation turned on the
wonderful pungency and power of In
vective of the ojd-tlme London 'cubby
ns narrated by Charles Dickens In
"Pickwick Papers" and by other au
thors of that and a nub.sen.uent time.
"A few years ago." said l)r. John 11.
Oliver. In the Indianapolis New. "1
paid my second visit to London. The
cabb and his horse had passed mvuy.
The horse-drawn omnibus1 was no
;nqre. the petrol-driven bus haying
taken Its place. told a Urlton whom
Jtai over thefts that liked to, sit on
the. outside next the driver, that I
found, him a most Interesting charac
ter. " 'So do I,' said my Urltlsh acquaint
ance, 'but he Is not at all as Interesting
as his predecessor of the old fashion.
I was seated beside one of these old
time drivers going through a street
crowded with vehicles when a bus
coming from the opposite direction
was lu collision with our bus. The
wheels of the two locked and then the
highly ornate invective between the
two drivers began. It was the perfect
flower, yes, the full fruitage I thought
of profanity and abuse.'
"I5ut I was mistaken. There wus
more and worse to come. When the
wheels had become unlocked and we
were slowly moving away, my friend,
the driver, drew from his pocket u bit
of string and holding It above his
head swung It slowly to and fro.
"The other driver at once Jumped
down from his bus and, whip In bund,
struck at the strlng-shuker. The wealth
of epithet he then used showed that all
that had preceded It was as mild and
kindly as the softest baby chatter. Our
driver nnswered not a word, but as he
drove slowly on continued the string
shaking.
" 'I wondered whut there could be In
this simple bit of dumb-show to make
the other busmun so frantically angry.
Then my driver gave the explanation:
" 'E didn't like it, did 'e? It was honly
a bit of Joke, don't y' see. 'Is brother
wus 'nnged last Friday," ' "
Church Give Every Man.
There Is a little French church In
the heart of Philadelphia which has
given and given to the great world
strife, ever since the war hegnn, life
blood and widows' mites, and In the
face of poverty Is still giving, giving,
according to a Philadelphia correspond
ent. Not one man botween seventoen nnd
fifty years old remains In the member
ship of thd little church of 8t. Sauveur.
All are at the front, some are with
the French army, uome are with the
United States forces, but all have gone.
All are fighting for the same great
world ideal,
They have left mothers, .wives and
Uttlt vm who do not complain, bat

those they Ittv'Oi but for the rofjf'qf

Nearly all upborn are wprkjng pen

for bread and butter, they Ijnyn found
the wny to adopt nnd Mippnrt four or

Incessant knitting and sowing for tho

War Curbs Suicide.
Sir Hernnrd Mullet, registrar gen
eral of the Urltlsh empire, announced
recently that suicide had fallen off
strikingly In England stneo the begin
ning of the war. The explanation Is
that the national unity of feeling, tho
subordination of, self and tho sharing
of sympathy on all sides makes tho In
dividual's personnl Injuries less Im
portant and Induces him to forget his
pwn desperation. Personnl Indulgences
nnd excesses of Immorality, causes of
Insanity and melancholia, are curbed
and minimized imtiirnll; by the econ
omies enforced, upon the populace.
Discipline In eating, dressing, working
has also a benellclal effect In keeping
(he mind sane and free from morbid
broodlngs.
Would Take Glass Eye Back.
Paul (Jury of Anderson. Ind., Is nil
American, with the exception of a
glass eye. The substitute optic Is
alien.
(inry tried to enlist lu tho United
States marine corps at their recruiting
station In Louisville, Ky hut wus re
jected when his infirmity was discov
ered by Sergt. O. C. Wright.
"Didn't you know that tho loss of
an eye would prevent your enlisting"
asked the sergennt.
"I thought It might." explnlned Gary,
"hut this glass blinker Is the only part
of me thnt was made In Germany, and
I want to take it back."
Ho was advised to mall It.
THINGS THAT ARE NOT SEEN
Much That Cannot Be Explained or
UnderstoodPeople Have to Look
On Frorn the Outside.
"To speak irimkly, uucle, enn't
bring myself u-bank njucj on a world
that's all out 'of! sight," ,l,rt flo"'"11
Cranston with, Jaunty decisiveness. "I
think I' can upilorntlind the point of
view of the Illhor-Just a little, any
how. It was tho natural thing to 'walk
by faith' In those dnys, for there wasn't
much else you could wnlk by. The
primitive mind peoples the shadows
with supernatural powers, but science
has let In so much light that there
aren't many shadows left. That's why
faith seems to me like an anachron
ism. The only way to keep It untouched
Is to get back to the old, forgotten
point of view, nnd look out on tho
world Just ns If nothing had been
learned in tho last thousand years or
more."
"I was thinking about Culver this
morning," Doctor Greshnm snld, and
his nephew raised his eyebrows In
quiringly at tho sudden change of
topic. "There must have boon a weak
streak In Culver somewhere, although
I was his chum In college four years
and never suspected It. lie was ono
of tho hnlf dozen fellows In our does
whom T expected to mnke their mark
In tho world. He didn't as you know.
I've talked with some of his Intimate
friends, but I've never been able to dis
cover the renson. And yet there must
bo a renson one of those subtle, In
tangible things that seem often to
mnke or unmake a life, but that tho
keen probe of science can't quite
reach."
"I begin to sec whnt you're aiming
nt." There was an accent of constraint
In tho young voice. "Of course there's
a lot we can't explain or understand.
We're handicapped by hnvlng to look
on from the outside."
The doctor nodded.
"Again," he said, "there's n wholo
world open to you as an educated man
thnt has no existence for Jerry Lomnx,
It's not only open to you, but you've
entered into It, nnd, In n measure, pos
sessed It. It's very real to you, and
you've found it engrossing and enjoy
able. You hnven't a doubt about this
world of thought, as we may call It,
being Just ns real ns the grosser world
of sense perception. And yet you'd
find It hard to convlnco Jerry that
there Is such a thing. The words
wouldn't mean anything to him. He'd
have to go In nt tho basement door und
climb up, step by step, to whore you
stand before he'd understand.

SAUNDERS BRO'S.
'T remember the rase of an old lady,
a patient of mine, who was as sure of
tho love of God as you are of tho law
of grnvltntlnn. She'd been a bed-rid-den
Invalid for 12 years, but she had
lived so close to God that every dinibt
had vanished. She didn't hnvc to got
bnrk to the old. forgotten point of
view, or mnke a shadow land for her
God to dwell In, or forgot tho wonder
ful things thnt have happened since
the lUlile wis written. She Just found
Poll snmeln)o who slp especially
pi'eded lilin. perhaps, and then kept
close at his side til) sho came to know
hlin. I have often thought that God's
presence was Just as real to her as
mine was possibly mpru so. That's
when I flpst began to see thnt I wm an
outsider, ' I was a professing Chris.,
tlan, but I hadn't got Into thu Inner
circle."
"Ono can't afford to miss n wholo
world, and think It Isn't there, If If
the fault Is all with Ids own eyesight,"
the young man replied soberly.-
