How to Kill LPoison Ivy and
Wild Honeysuckle.
‘‘Bternal vigilance is the price of
liberty’’ in the government of nature
as well as the government of man,
and vegetation which pesters the
farmer may be eliminated by stick
ing everlastingly at it. A Montgomery
oounty man who has troubles of his
own with wild honeysuckle and poison
ivy appealed to the Division of
Economie Zoology at Harrisburg|'
about it, and State Economic Zoolo-
gist H. A. Surface adyised him as
follows:
“To kill roots and vines of poison
ivy, one of the best methods is to
wait untit growth starts, and then
pour on a strong solution of sulphate
of iron (greenstone), or kerosene oil.
It may needa pound or more of green
vitriol to a gallon, but it should be
used strong enough to kill the leaves.
When they start again pour it on
again. Soak the leaves and roots
with it. If one should keep it up,
and as soon as they start growth
give them another treatment, he will
be able to kill them out. Of course,
the sulphate of iron should not be
dissolved in a metal vessel, nor kept
in metal, as it will destroy it.
“I got rid of wild honeysuckle on
my own premises by mowing the
ground, plowing it, and putting it into
cultivation. I had a strip of this
along a fence row. which by cultivat-
ing has been completely cleaned up.
If they are where they cannot be cul-
tivated I should use the strong sul-
phate of iron solution, or should
sprinkle them with oil of any kind
when they are in leaf, or put straw
or leaves upon them and burn them.
Almost any kind of obnoxious plant
on viae can be destroyed’ by keeping
at it during the growing season, and
not letting it get mudh of a start. It
cannot live long without green leaves
to act as both its lungs and stomach.
Kil the leaves frequently and you
will keep ahead of it.

FOR FLETCHER’S
CASTORIA
Doubted by One Who Has
Read It.
T= Bible was never so thoroughly
studied ‘as during the last half
century, and it never had so many
readers as today. The amount of
writing that is being done on the
Bible at this time is astonishing, and
this fact is significant of the vitality
of its teaching.
But there are writers that analyze
the Bible as one might analyze a
house—by taking it to pieces, and re-
ferring each several part to its origin.
“These pine boards,” they would say,
“came from Oregon; this flooring is
oak from Missouri; these nails are of
wire, machine made, from Wisconsin
iron; this plaster was made from 111i
nois limestone, and is surface-coated
with calcined gypsum from Iowa; this
furniture is mahogany from the West
Indies, originally freighted in Ameri
can vessels; these are wool rugs, of
European weave, and from Scotch
sheep.” Similarly théy would analyze
and refer to its “original source” ev-
ery piece of bric-a-brac, every personal
ornament, and every token of affec-
tion. :
such analysis, is that it is
and they began life together; here ev-
erything was consecrated by the sa-
credness of affection and is eloquent
with devotion; here children were
born and joy abounded; here the angel
of death entered and tears of sorrow
flowed; here hope burned, flickered,
and revived; here faith was tried,
fidelity proved, and love tested.
analysis of the house is comparatively
usimportant. This was a home, and
that is the significant fact.
Bible a Spiritual Home.
The Bible likewise is both a house
and a home. Many writers busy them-
selves analyzing only the house, per-
forming their work with such real zeal
that onlookers are apt'to overestimate
its importance. The writers seem to
forget, or fail to discern, that the Bi-
le is a spiritual home, a place where
hearts learn to love, where spiritual
to live as one family.
who go to the opposite extreme, who
simply reiterate the old things in, the
old way, who read into the Bible much
medieval theology and keep on dealing
with questions which have lost their
vitality. who catch no new vision, and
feel no thrill of new meanings . and
applications.
Volumes have been written about
the inspiration of the Bible, but one
need pot spend a moment arguing
that the Bible is inspired. Read it!
Does not the voice of God speak to
your soul through it? There can be
no revelation to him who has not “ears
to hear.” - The very atmosphere may
' be vibrant with voices of God without
revealing anything to deaf ears. I was
of a bird. I described the sound as
best I could, and then asked: “Can
you not hear it?’ “No,” he replied. |
'“Where? The bird is not singing now,
us in ecstatic strain. The revelation of
God’s voice comes, like the song of a
bird, not by description or argument,
but by hearing. Christ was ever say-
ing to the multitude: ‘He that hath
ears to hear, let him hear.” Two men
masters, or at a landscape when na-
ture has on her garments of glory.
One r-emains stolid and unmoved,
while the other is thrilled and uplifted.
Argument is unavailing for the stolid
man. Great paintaings or landscapes
are not things to be argued about or
even described. They must be seen.
There is no revelation of beauty ex-
cept for the soul that can discern
‘beauty. . The Bible has beauty for
,can hear, and wealth of revelation for
souls that can discern and appreciate.
Bible Ever Practical.
It is alleged that the Bible is im-
practical. Those who find the Bible
impracticable are those who find it in-
terfering with their selfish desires.
If you put the Bible into thé hand of
the thief when he is caught with
stolen goods, he will say: “It is an
impracticable book. If I follow this
book I must restore the products of
my theft and possibly go to’ prison.”
That is precisely the practical thing
required if homes are to be safe and
society secure. Put the Bible into
the hands of those who have stolen
and grafted from the government, and
they will tell you that it is not practi
cal,’ that if they follow this book they
must disgorge millions. The people
thing that needs doing. Put the Bible
into the hands of the great trusts,
which control the necessities of life,
and they will at once say that it ie
not practical, that if they follow this
book they must stop exploiting the
people, and squeeze the water out of
dividend-bearing stocks. The people
think that just these things must be
done before society can come to a fair
living basis, to say nothing of a condi-
tion of peace and contentment.
practical nature of the. Bible lies in
the fact that it requires men at the
command of God to do precisely what

ALL TRAFFIC DEMORALIZEL
Indianapolis Schools Close and Many
Points Are Stormbound — Hurri-
cane-Like Wind Rocks Cars
and Endangers Lives.
Columbus, O.—Trains stalled at
numerous points throughout the state,
‘traffic abandoned in some instances,
train arrivals ranging from - three to
seven hours’ late and street car and
inter-urban traffic seriously impeded
where trolley traffic had not been
abandoned were results of the most
severe snowstorm that has swept this
State this wincer. - Eight inches of
snow has been added to the supply
which already covered the ground,
making a to.al at many points of from
12 to 20 inches.
Huge drifts stalled two Toledo &
Ohio Central trains at Ridgway, and
one near Bellefontaine. A Pennsyi-
‘ania train eastbound left Richmond,
.nd., but was unable to get through,
and was returned to ‘Richmond.
Traffic on the Pennsylvania Line be-
tween Dayton and Richmond, Ind., was
abandoned because of traffic condi-
tions ‘throuzhout the Miami Valiey. A
pas.enger train on the same line was
s.alled near West Manchester, a few
miles from Dayton.
Indianapolis, Ind.—Indianapolis and
practica.ly all of Indina are storm-
bound foilow.ng one of the worst biiz-
zards of the winter. The street car
service here is demoralized. Through-
out the city the snow, which has been
driven by a wind reaching a velocity
of 60 miles an hour, lies in drifts from
three to five feet deep.
Many of the scanools here and in
oi.her places in the State had to close,

Mine Fatalities Show Improvement.
Altoona, Pa.—During 1913, accord-
ing to the report of Inspector Joseph
Wiliiams, five persons were killed and
57 injured at the mines of the tenih
bithminous district, which includes
Blair Cambria and Clearfield counties
and embraces 58 mines.. The number
of persons employed inside was 5,918
and outside 857. :Imspector Wililams
says this is a favorable Improvement

Former New York Legislator Dies.
New York.—Samuel H. Everett, for-
mer.y a state assemblyman, died of
general debility at his home in Brook-
lyn. Everett was aged 74 years and
was a cousin of Edward Everett Hale.
Everett's ancestors were among the
first settlers on Long Island and land-
ed there in 1746.
Attempted Bribery in Murder Case.
Chicago Ill—An exciting charge of
attempted bribery in connection with
the trial for murder of William Cheny
Ellis, the Cincinnati leather mer-
chant, who killed his wife last Octo-
ber in a hotel here, was made by Ellis’
council, George Remus. Remus as-
serted that he had been offered $1,000
if he would would arrange with his
client to enter a plea of guilty.
JAPS ALLEGED BRIBERS
Naval Scandals Will Prove More Ex-
tensive Than at First Reported.
Tokyo.—Three Japanese contract-
ors, furnishing supplies to the navy,
were arrested on charges of bribery.
The arrest indicate that the naval
scandals brought to light through the
relations of a naval attache in Berlin
with a German contracting firm, will
prove more extensive than was at first |
suspected. The discussion of the sub-
ject led to a serious commotion in the
House of Representatives.
