Sunbury Cavalrymen Given
Money to Buy Auto Truck
Sunbury, Pa., July 21.—esterday
Sunbury sent $5lO to Troop I, First
Pennsylvania Cavalry, in camp near!
El Paso, with which to buy an automo
bile truck. Letters from the guards
men told of hardships they are under
going and said water had to he car
ried from a windmill two miles from
the camp. Members of the Women's
Preparedness League, headed by Mrs.
H. T. Evans and Miss Elisabeth D.'
Grant, called on the people to aid In
getting a truck and the needed sum
was raised in four days. Troop I is
commanded by Captain Charles F.
Clement, son of Major General Charles
M. Clement, division commander of
the National Guard of Pennsylvania.
Music Has Odors, Director
Tells College Students
Chicago, July 21. Can you smell
the difference between "11 Trovatore"
end "William Tell," or "Carmen" and
"Samson." or the "Marseillaise" and
"All Coons Look Alike to Me" ? If
you cant then you are not really a
connoisseur in music. For every class
of music has its distinctive odor, and
real musicians can detect it. Robert
W. Stevens, director of music at the
University of Chicago, told his stu
dents so at an informal talk on the
qualities of music.
Mr. Sevens cited Professor Ward,
of the University of Illinois, as one of
his authorities for the declaration that
music has distinctive odors; also he
quoted Mme. Rausch, of the opera
ballet.
"Classical music," said Mr. Stevens,
"is like a bouquet of flowers. Rag
time airs have the odor of roast 'pos
sum. Martial music gives us the
acrid smell at gunpowder."
To Make Hairs Vanish
From Face, Neck or Arms
Keep a little powdered delatone
handy and when hairy growths appear
make a paste with some of the pow
der and a little water, then spread
over hairy surface. After 2 or 3 min
utes rub off, wash the skin and It will
be entirely free from hair or blemish.
This simple treatment is unfailing, but
care should be exercise! to be sure
and get genuine delatone, otherwise
you may be disappointed.

The Expense of

In Jealous Frenzy Woman
Burns Out Eyes of Husband
Sherman, Texas, July 2. 'Writh
ing in agony on the ground at the rear
of his residence, L. P. Gathright, a
businessman of this city, was found
by neighbors and officers at three
o'clock in the morning with both eyes
burned out with hot concentrated lye
and with numerous and serious burns
on other parts of his body. A com
plaint was filed in Justice Wilson's
I court charging his wife, Mrs. Gath
j right, with assault to murder.
To Sheriff Simmons and Deputy
i O'Mary, who were among the first to
j reach the house, Mrs. L. P. Gathright
'made a statement, in which she said:
j "I did not want to kill him. I
j wanted to put his eyes out and spoil
| his handsome face so he would not
!be attractive to other women. He
mistreated me before he was sent to
' Leavenworth, but on his return he
said he would reform and make me
i happy, and for a while it seemed that
; he would do so. but lately other wo
; men have come into his life, and I
stood it as long as I could."
Gathright, after having been par
| tially relieved of pain, asked the
I Sheriff not to molest his wife, saying:
! "I have not done right and, while I
'do not believe I am as bad as she
thinks I am, if I die I hope she will
j not be molested."
Calf Grows Up Before
Suit Over It Is Ended
Kansas City, Mo.. July 21. A bull
calf, four weeks pld, pale red in color,
was in dispute between Richard L.
Smith and Minor Mailory back in 1914
Smith sued to recover the calf, which
he valued at $lO. He won in a suit
before a Justice of the Peace. He
won on appeal in the Circuit Court,
a jury there fixing the value of the
growing calf at $25.
Up came the calf case then to the
Court of Appeals. The higher court
decides, first of all, the red bull calf
in dispute must in point of law al
ways be considered as four weeks old.
Smith lost a $lO calf, the Court holds.
If he comes forward and formally ac
cepts that, well and good, says the
Court of Appeals.

PAUL DID GREAT
WORK IN CORINTH
Apostle Gathered Large Church
Together in Wickedest City
of His Time
The International Sunday Los
son for July 23 is "Paul at Corinth."
—Acts 17:16-34.
t (By William T. Ellis.)
There has been many a laugh over
the idea of "Billy" Sunday's going to
New York City. Gotham and godli
ness seem contradictions in terms.
Evangelists shun San Francisco,
some preachers resent being sent by
their bishop to "bad" towns. They
say they have no "chance" there. All
of which may be interestingly con
sidered in the light of the fact that in
wicked old Corinth, with a reputation
far worse than that of New York
or San Francisco or Paris or Cairo,
the Apostle Paul spent a year and
a half, and gathered together a great
church, to which two of the most
famous books In the New Testament
were addressed. The Sunday school
lessons of the next three weeks will
be taken from these letters.
Obviously, the salt should go where
corruption threatens. Yeast belongs
in the dough, and not on the shelf.
Christianity, according to its Foun
der, is for sinners, and not for saints.
If the Church has any mission at all,
she has a mission to the worst places.
At the very basis of this Corinthian
lesson lies the assumption that the
Gospel may not shrink from any task,
however hard; and that the greater
the need the louder the call. The
Church is not true to type if she does
not go up confidently against all the
Corinths of the twentieth century
and win them for her Master. Only
students know nowadays what was
common report two thousand vears
ago, that Corinth stood for the very
limit of lewdness and vileness and
all wickedness. To-aay Corinth is as
sociated. in the common mind, with
Christianity. Such Is the transforma
tion wrought by one faithful mission
ary. The South Sea Islands have had
the same experience. Once dreaded
abodes of cannibalism, to-day they are
centers of Christian light and ' life.
Whenever and wherever the Church
has valiantly attacked the citadels
of evil, she has come off victorious.
The cross is mightier than any Cor
inth.
Enter a Man and Wife
The Emperor Claudius had made
Home too hot for the Jews, and they !
had been scattered in exile. The ex- '
perience seemed a bitter one. Among :
the victims of the edict of exile were
a high-minded tent-maker and his
wife, Aquila and Priscilla. Thev were
driven from their established' work
and their house in Home, and finally t
landed in Corinth. Kate seemed cruel i
to them. Still, with the stout-hearted i
fortitude which their persecuted race i
has shown in all ages, they took up '
life anew in this heathen city, joining
the tent-makers' colony.
now, workers at the same !
<„ r J ned a Aquila and
Priscilla belonged to the tent-makers' I
union. One day there came to them 1
another stranger bearing, and we
should say now, a union card, a trav
eling tent-maker from Tarsus, named
Paul. They hospitably welcomed him
to their home, the more that he wai
a rabbi, learned in the Law of Mooes.
Together the three of them toiled at
their trade, Paul the while talking
of the Na*areth Carpenter.
"This is the Gospel of Labor,
Ring it, ye bells of the kirk.
The Lord of love
Came down from above,
To dwell with the men who work."
There is no fellowship like that of
a common task, a common cause, a
common Leader ana a common pur
pose. This insures community of in
terests. Therefore farmers get to
gether in granges, financiers in clubs,
workingmen in unions. It Is difficult
for a stock-broker and a carpenter
to think alike: they have not even the
same lingo. Therein lies the diffi
culty of preserving the nation from
classism. There must be some com
mon tie, some common allegiance,
some common purpose, great enough
to comprehend all these divisions and
to ruse them into oneness on the
real essentials of life. If a man is a
j banker or a brakeman before he is
a patriot, then woe to the country.
One great obstacle to the success
; of the Church, and one seldom dis
j cussed in religious conferences, is the
fact that the average clergyman does
not speak the tent-maker's language.
His speech is that of a class rather
than of the mass. The preacher is
t trained as a bookman by bookmen
■ and if he is brainy, book-taught folk
enjoy him. As for the great bulk of
the people, who are toilers, he so
little knows their life and language
that he is not even aware of the gulf
that separates him from them. Sin
cerely and earnestly, he desires to be
close to the workingman: but his
years of apartness intervene.
The Personal Factor
This casual contract, following ex
ile, was the making of Aquila and
Priscilla. It wrote their names among
the immortals. They became import
ant figures in New Testament his
tory; for, of course, they were early
converts of their workfellow, Paul,
whose daily life and skill gave full
proof of his religion. Destiny usually
, comes to us in the form of personal
! relationships. Opportunity is ordin
arily a man or a woman. The friends
we make make us. iCvery fresh con
i tact with a person is a serious bus-
I iness. Had it not been for their asso
-1 ciation with Paul, Aquila and Priscilla
would have gone into objivion with
. the other unknown Jews of Corinth.
The other side of the case Is equal
!ly significant. A cause grows by its
' recruits. Just as it was a great hour
for Christianity when Paul was con
i verted, so it was also a great hour
when Aquila and Priscilla accepted
the cross. The'hope and reward of
every teacher is that among the
young lives she shapes there may be
i a Paul, an Aquila, a Priscilla, a
Moody, a Frances Wlllard. The
greatest growth possible to the
Church is by the addition of power
ful and consecrated personalities.
The Time to Quit Coaxing
Some parents and preachers miss
I the truth that there comes an hour
. when entreaty should end. Many a
lover would win the woman of his
! choice if he quit pleading so abjectly.
S Many a son would be brought to
i righteousness if he were made to see
that his folly is upon his own head
alone. Paul's way with the Corinth
ian Jews is sound. When they proved
obdurate to reason and invitation,
Paul "shook his raiment and said un
to them, 'Your blood be upon your
own heads: I am clean: from hence
, forth I turn to the Gentiles.' "
Dr. H. Clay Trumbull used to tell
the story of a young lawyer who re
turned from the Civil War a dissi
pated character, grafting on his
friends. One day he appeared at the
office of another lawyer, with an ap
peal for financial aid. The latter,
having given until his patience was
I exhausted, said in disgust, "Look
: here, you're no good. You're going
to hell, —so go," and he kicked him
down stairs. That rough treatment
brought the wastrel to his senses and
changed his whole life. We are
forced to remember that, even as

Paul, with the Corinthian scoffers, I
there comes a time when God's Spirit!
ceases to strive with man. One of 1
the terrible mysteries of human free :
will is that God does not deny a per- \
son the right to go to hell, if he so
chooses.
The Church in the House
One afcljunct of the modern evan- [
gelistic campaign is tne cottage pray- |
er-meeting. That is a return to New
Testament usage. The church in the
house was first and it has never
ceased to be a mighty agency of the
Kingdom. When Paul quit the syna
gogues of Corinth—his first approach
to a city wae always by the Jewish
synagogue—he established a Church
in the house of Justus, who lived next j
door to the synagogue. There he i
taught both Jew and Gentile. From
that house flowed the stream that be- j
came the famous Church of Corinth. I
Somehow, there is an intimacy, an !
informality, a genuineness and a sim
plicity about religious services in a i
home that the larger gatherings in '
the Church building sometimes lack. !
These "cottage meetings," as they are
called, may profitably be an adjunct
to every Church's life. I know a con- ,
gregatlon which recently dispensed '
with Its Wednesday night service for
a few weeks, and substituted district j
prayer meetings in the homes of;
members. The attendance was many- i
fold greater than usual, and a new !
life was imparted to the mid-week
meeting when it was resumed.
The Church in the house also pre
supposes a family aitar, which is per
haps the greatest single factor in the !
shaping of the lives of children. :
When we crowd and stress religion j
in the home, we are following a New ,
Testament precedent, and adopting a |
method of efficiency that surpasses I
any thing that modern ingenuity has j
devised.
The "Much People"
Nobody who sees things from God's
| standpoint is ever discouraged. When
jwe become "blue" It is a sure sign
| that we are looking at things from j
; the wrong angle. Knowing all the ;
facts makes optimists. Most of the }
i spies whom Moses sent into Canaan j
saw the giants and tne grasshoppers, j
but they also saw God, and they re- !
j turned optimists. If we knew what j
| God knows we should never be cast!
down.
Line all city preacners, Paul seems
to have had his hours of discourage
ment. So in a vision at night God
came to him with the message which j
He so often has repeated to His serv- 1
ants, "Be not afraid." Whoever feels j
cast down should take a concordance ■
and run through the phrases "Fear i
j not," "Be not afraid." "Be of good i
courage." The pages of inspiration
, are peppered with calls to courage.
! To Paul the message came, "Be not
i afraid, but speak, and hold not thy
peace: For I am with thee, and no
j man shall set on thee to hurt thee;
: for I have much people in this city."
Even in Corinth God had "much
] people." So he has also in Philadel
-1 phla and New York and Chicago and
j San Francisco. Write that Scripture
deep on your hearts, O you tearful,
discouraged, whining saints, who look
| and talk as If God had been defeated.
There are more Christians in Chicago
| than the newspapers know. Two
; days ago, on a Saturday, I read care
■ fully a paper which professed to be
the greatest in the world. Within its
territory, to my own personal knowl
j edge, were notable religious event* In
progress—an International Sunday
school conference, a. Young Men's
| Christian Association conference, and
J a general Christian worker's confer -
i ence, in addition to all the varied
! work of the churcheu of that city. Yet
i there was not a line about religion
;in the whole twenty-four pages, ex
i cept the column and three-quarters
lof paid church advertisements. The
I paper did not know that God had
"much people" in that city. It show
j ed. however, that it knew that sports
'had 'giuch people," and finance had

j situation is that prooably not a single
[ one of the hundreds of thousands of
i Christians in that paper's territory
\ wrote a friendly line to the editor re
j minding bim that God also has "much

in the city needs to become more
vocal. It should do more than exist:

Declares Fish Talk,
Although Voiceless
Bangor, Me., July 21. Stephen!
Decatur Bridges, known as the salmon '
and alewife king of the Penobscot,
is positive not only that fish have ;
brains, but that fish reason and orm
likes and dislikes, and tell their opin- I
ions to each other. Bridges explains I
the disappearance ot saimon from the
Penobscot in two ways—either "sal- I
mon tell other salmon how dirty its !
waters are and how it is not fit for j
any respectable salmon to live in," or |
"the fish resent it because at the :
hatchery in East Orland they are !
taken from the water and stripped of
their eggs."
Breeds New Species
of Mountain Duck
Lewistown, Pa., July 21. John
Lutz is deeply interested in the pro
pagation of a specie of mountain wild
duck not recorded in natural history, i
Lutz found the nest of' a wild tur
key hen, containing eight eggs, and I
six duck eggs during he» ab- |
aetfee. All fourteen batched, and the
5
mother bird took great pride In her
web-footed brood, with the result that
they are now roosting in the tallest'
trees and can be approached only
with the greatest care. Lutz believes
they will breed a species of duck that
will nest on the mountain crags, rath
er than along the streams of the
valley.
