Jiet willing te no tn church It inuk s no

It Is true that many of the churches,
probably thrnUKh tlieuuhtleasnuin. fall te re
spond te their Christian duty of tnnklne
welcome into the church home the atrnnicer
Every newcomer who settles 'n any part of
this city will find n. church within a short

The unfortunnte part Is that only tee
many people who be te church think that It
Is net a duty they ewe te Ond, but bs a
tneana of becemtnu acnualnted with people

Problem of War Gas Is Hard One
Te tht Editor e) the Evnina I'vhHc I.rdatr:
Sir I s-e t !.ejr p.tpr that the mttti-r
of uslnit poisonous nas und ether new de
vices la up for discussion by the Dlsnrniu-
ment Cenferenee. It leeks te me like a
hard matter te rrnulate such things by Itw.
Potsen Bas could probably Is u?ed under
certain conditions te destroy rodents and
Insects. This would furnish any itoern iteern
ment with a tolerable excuse for research
en that line by Its Axrlcu tural Department
If the War Department were forbidden te de
co. A Bas that ulll kill mammals vill
Bcnerally kill men. The effvet en man
might easily be tried out en the criminals
of some nations. In tlnery. It would be te
find the bist was for the rodent killers Je
protect thcmselMs but flndlns out what
won't kill und what will kill a man arc
about the s.ime thine.
I hope Secretary Iluuhes will stand firm
en the R-3-3 basis, anil I would net Brieve1
much If that Conference struck a sn.iB.
However. If lhe cannot come te terms en a
tennage bas.s It might be possible tu agree
en a limitation based en a number of
enlisted men. That is. there would be a cut
of some per cent In the number of officers ,
and men, but the nations would build as
they saw fit te provide lii up-te-date arma
ment. The United States has no battle
cruisers and It si ems a pity te scrap the
enea we hae partly made and have a navy
of only out-of-date slew tubs of battleships
A small navy In men. but provided with
better tools of the trade, would be mere In
line with United States policies In ether
things. C. Ii. E

The tru" Christmas, in my mind. Is net
sp-nt in this way (lifts only make us tern tern
perarllj happy or comfort tblc: nnd the
Chris mas dinner Is seen digested. My Idea

bitter, and It can be Indulged in by every

or tev for the younger ones, and seme little
article of wearing npiurcl te the ciders. I
have always taught them economy nnd that
a gift should nut be valued by the mncy ex
pended. They receive these gifts and en
joy them, I am sure, mere than thu great
maji rlly of the children of wealthy or even
medriately wpillhy parents, who leek at
all the presirts that are given te them and
then pans tlicin up btcause they have been

tie te reditu next. In fact, they leek forth

My pun Is this. On Christmas cve I

Philadelphia. December 13,
The conjectures ta te the origin of the

of them are Imprebible. Some are: (1) I'retn
Sptnlh "Cape de Nadu," meaning "Cape of
Nethlnr." earl vesars being convinced
of tht Innd's werlhesness: (21 from a Stnn
leh word tutnlng "passage." that Is te India
through Canada. corresponding te "I.n
Chln" rnplds In the St. I.iwrrnec; (.1) from
"Acn Nada." said te n.can "nothing her."
(4) from "Kannatha": (3) from KptnlHh
Tlirrt Canndit" or "Tlcrra de lit Can tdi,"
meaning "land which Is Bullied": (C) rrem
"ICaiifta " meaning it collection of heusts,
or vlllige, It being a natural mistake U
give the name for this Instead of the coun
try In genertl. This latter explanation of
the or gin Is the mere llkels-. and Is the
one which was convincing te the late On

"My face nnd neck broke out In a
rsh which left my skin awful rough.
Suddenly pimples and blackheads
appeared. The pimples were hard nnd
red and were in blotches. They Itched
and burned ee that I had te tan my
self, and some nights I could net
sleep.
" I could net get anything te help
me. I began uslnr; Cutlcura Seap

change, and after using them for
six months my face was completely
healed." (8lgned) Miss Daisy Mur
