Effect Of the Tolophono On tho Volco.

mndo the. interesting point thnt "the

ing There are many causes. The

twenty yearn ago it was tho language
of literature; but, nlmvc all, looms tho
fact that tho long distnnco tclopliono in
used bo much more generally and so
frequently. Tho use of tho tolophono,
lit t lo us the casual onlooker may think
-of It, is bringing all normal voices to

tolophono !h gradually changing the
voices of Hjo nation." This is n rather
(surprising stntoniont, and if it bo true
and wo do" hot 'question Mr, Hall's
fitatomout, forihe Is a keou and oxpor
lonned observer it mist be due more
to tho fooling of tho tolophonu user
than tho person ho Is talking to is
Home distance away than to any neces
sity caused by tho Instrument itself.
Teoplo generally uro apt to ralso tholr
voices when using tho tolophono much
higher than there In any need. Of
course, when using tho long distance
tolophono there is greater necessity for
speaking louder and more distinctly
than when speaking over a. local Hue.
On tho other hand, tho damping ollVcf
on electric waves is much greater with
voiced of higher pitch than the lower
ones. The bass voice should carry fur.
thor than the treble.
It is rather interesting to recall at
this timo a htntcmont made somo timo

When on Eastor day we pay tributo
to the rlson Christ, wo register a pro
test against all forms of injustice and
oppression. When wo kneel among tho
lilies wo count ourselves with tho dom
oCracy which Christ camo to establish
among men. If wo bo sincere wo must
utter at least a brief prayer that the
men and women who toll and struggle
for existence may find fair recompense
for their efforts and that the influence
of this day may operate ovon in the
henrts of tho trust magnates, who as
sumo that becauso they monopolizo tho
wealth of tho country thoy arc the
trustees of God, divinely ordnlnod to
administer that property according to
their own pleasure.
A great practical importanco nt
taches to this day and tho reason for
and the manner of its celebration. Na
ture hns been bountiful, yet, because
of tho greed of a few powerful mon,
tho studenfs of government aro con
fronted with tho fccrltfus problem of de
vising ways nnd moans for- tho distri
bution of that bounty, at least vto the
extent that tho ninny may live in com-
ion oven tnougn tno taw nourish in
luxury.
It hns been written that, "If the
tender, profound and sympathizing lovo
practiced nnd recommended by Jesus
woro paramount In every heart, the
loftiest nnd most glorious idea of hu
man society would be realized and lit
tlo bo wnnted to mnko this world a
kingdom of honven." It does not scorn
possiblo for thnt profound lo.vo to bo
como paramount in every heart; yet
thoso who nro willing to "live nnd let
live" will undertnko to nppronch for
themselves, as nearly as possiblo, that
high aspiration; it will bo no loss
their duty to bring Influence, through
just nnd wholesome- laws of restraint,
gninst men who recognize no other
law thnn their own in tho accumula
tion of property and in tho contempla
tion of tho rights of others.
It will bo no easy task to preserve
Knstor and similar days in a land
where- tho many sow while tho few
reap; nnd thoso prolatcs who rofrnin
from crying out ngainst tho nccumuln
tlon of wealth through unjust laws may
yet learn that it is a difficult task to
pronch of tho risou Christ to hungry
men and women nnd to naked children
Thoro nro men who hold no particular
croed, but delight to rovol in tho elo
quence, tho wisdom and tho lovo of tho
Naaarenc; there aro men who, even
though outside of tho church, under
take in their own way with many a
strugglo and with an occasional tri
umph, to follow Him who said, "I am
tho way, tho truth and the life." Is
it not, then, tho part of His more pre
tentious champions to lend n hand so
that tho justico for which Christ stood
shall fiud rolleetion in tho government
under which wo livoi
A Nebraska poef, nnd one of tho

with all tho songs nnd the prnvers,
with all tho ceremonies nnd the inspir
ing otVorts which this day recalls, with
nil tho love, with all tho truth, with alj
tho example with all tho Christ
there is no pence! In this land we see
on the ono hand powerful men accumu
lating, through unjust laws and favor-
Itlsm at the hands of government's
representatives, millions upon millions
of wealth, while in spite of our boast
od prosperity tho problem nmoiig tho
masses of obtaining fair recompense
for toll Is becoming moro and more dif
ficult of solution.
.lustice, tho uttributo of divine na
ture, must bo more closely associated
with power, so that "whatever Is jus
tice may bo power, and whntever is
"power may bo justince." Somo one
hns raid that justice Is "tho great and
simple principle which Is tho secret of
success In all government, as essential
to tho training of un iufant, as to tho
control of ti mighty nation." And so
When it is apparent thnt those who Jtoil
aro belug moro and more deniod tho
justice to which they nro entitled, it
is fitting thnt on this Rust or day of
IfKHl mon and women who bend the

Ho stood nud shall consecrate them

men, to tho duty with which they are
confronted.
You Imvo soon a tiny plant, spring
ing up around u rock, seeking to .clothe
with its groon leaves tne rugged hind
ranee, to its growth. That littlo plant
is, u symbol of this day. Qiven la Its
mako use of its endowment and, al
though at times well nigh destroyed,
it struggles upward to contribute Its
beauty and fragranco to the world it
was Intended to adorn. Tho rock of
selfishness, of meanness, of coriquest, of
man's inhumanity to man, of war and
greed and avarice, needs to be re
moved in order that the principle for
which this day stands may be recog
nized by all mon.
Yet in spito of the discouragement,
tho injustice and tho wrongs to which
tho weak and helpless aro subjected,
there are, in this day, and in. tho things
It represents, hope nnd Inspiration to
those who would strugglo for the great
est good to the greatest number.
Tho littlo child bending in true rev
erenco at tho mother's kneo; the gray
haired man waiting near close of well
spent lifo for dawn to come; the aged
mother with scars of heart as numer
ous as her years, whose devotion has
sustnincd her in aflliction and whose
cxamplo has inspired those who have
como within tho benediction of her
holy faith; the sacrifices of parent for
child; tho devotion of frlond to friend;
tho kind offices of tho strong to tho af
flicted; the mlto given to charity; the
cup of cold water; tho tear that springs
unbidden for another's woes all these
bear testimony to tho risen Christ.
Theso provido the hope that in God's
good timo men nnd women may be
able to kneel among tho lilies with
love, "tho crowning grnco of human
ity," in their hearts; with justice re
vealed in tho national life; with truth
written upon, the statute books; with
happiness re-established wherever they
hnvo dethroned It nnd with oppression
abandoned wherovcr they aro rcspousi
bio for it.

Tho things that strike ono first and
surprise ono most in such Chinese
cities as Canton, Soochow and' Ilnng
chow, are tho nnrrowncss of tho busi
ne stroets and tho width, of tho shop
doors. In our cities tho streets are
always four or" fivo times as wido as
tho entrance to tho. buildings, bnt in
China tho rovorso is tho enso. The
front of n Chinese shop is all door
and its width, ns a rule, is two or
throo times that of tho thoroughfare
upon which it opens, so thnt it is
really easier to hand a package to a
customer on tho other side of the
strcot than to pass it to him ncross the
width of tho door. Great Dragon
streot tho Broadway of Soochow Is
only six or seven foot in width, whllo
tho doors of tho business houses that
stand nlong it would permit tho en
trnnco of two carriages abreast. In
such streets wheeled vehicles, of
courso, cannot bo employed, and goods
of nil kinds, from garden vegetables
and dressod hogs to furniture, build
ing materials and bnlcs of silk, aro
suspended from shoulder poles nnd
carried' by coolio porter. Animals are
not much used for the transportation
of merchandise, on account of the
lateral spaco necessarily occupied by
pack saddles and packs. Two ladon
A Live
Wire
Every nerve is a live wire
connecting some part of the
body with the brain. .They are
so numerous that if you pene
trate the skjw with the point of
a needle you will touch a nerve
and receive a shock pain it is
called. Aches and pains come
from a pressure, strain or in
jury to a nerve; the more prom
inent the nerve the greater the
pain. When the pain comes
from a large nerve it is called
Neuralgia
whether it be the facial nerves,
or the heart, stomach, sciatic
or other prominent nerve
, branch. To stop pain, then,
you must relieve the strain or
pressure upon the nerves.
Dr. Miles' Anti-Pain Pills do
this.
"I fluttered Intense pain, caused by
neuralcln- I doctored and used vari
ous medicines without sotting relief
until I becan taking: Dr. Miles'
Anti-Pain I'llls. They did mo more
Reed thnn all the medicines I ever
used. They never fall to euro my
headaches, and their uso never leaves
any bad after-effects."
