BY DR. FRANK DYER.Pastor First Congregational Church.

Thank God, we have an American iv the While House big enough forthe job. That is about the highest eulogy that could be offered of any livingman. For then never was an hour so momentous to the world as the oneW« are now living in. President Wilson's proposals practically mean theUnited States of the world, to supplant the independent colony-nation ideawhich the world in its education, its science, its commerce, its art, its music,its sympathy and in every other way except in its government! has alreadydecidedly outgrown.

The president is the first world-leader to commit his nation in fact tothe dream of Tennyson— "The parliament of.man and the federation of theWorld.*1 There are Americans more under the power of the dead hand ofthe past than of the living hand of the future who would bind the UnitedStates with the chains of a phrase—"No entangling alliances."

We shall hear mighty blasts from them; more sound than sense. Theyare of the sort who never sec anything until after it has happened and thennot always. Provincial in their thinking and in their feeling they must notbe taken too seriously when humanity is calling. Jn an hour like this poetshave more meaning for us than small jK»liticiaiis. Lowell's "New Occasions,Teach New Duties" embodies the spirit which animates the American peo-ple. The president knows that the shrill cry of opposition will be raised, buthe believes that the deeper, truer voice of American manhood and woman-hood will drown that cry. lie has staked everything on his faith in theAmerican people. We shall not disappoint him! The truth is there is nohope for the world on the present fiercely competitive nationalistic basis.

The president is gloriously right when he insists upon flooding the bel-ligerent nations with the Pact that it is the future they must be concernedwith, and that the future, if it is to be different from" the past, must be de-termined less by force than by agreement. Can the allies, who took np armsin behalf of humanity, now rise to a level where they can lay down thosearms in behalf of humanity 1 The Germany of the last decade stands con-demned before the conscience of the whole world. Hhe knows that today. Ibelieve that the great lesson of the w.ir—militarism is the pathway to ruin—she had burned into her soul.

President Wilson's position seems to be "Take her back now as a disci-plined member into the family of nations and together let all the nations ofthe world safeguard world-peace as Jealously and as powerfully as hithertoseparate peoples have guarded their own honor. It is a great challenge;the American people abovo all others should rise to it. Liberty, democracyand brotherhood for the world art in this movement. Intolerance, despot-ism and conquest willmeet defeat, humanity willbe crowned. In this move-ment highly conceived and wisely executed America rises to a new and benifi-aent leadership of mankind. Allhail the new day!

"Under tho operation of an Inequitable and wholly unjustdifferential paweiiKer rate, obviously rontrtvod to benefit onesection of the coast country at the expense of another, touristshave iicen able to ko from the Kust (Chicago) to San Franciscovia the southern route at a fare $ 17.n0 less than that exactedTia the northern route.

"For years Seattle, Portland and other north coast cltleehave protected against this discrimination und sought Its re-moval, only to he outmaneuverod by Southern California, ever•Jert to the advantages derived from the differential and offer-lnx aggressive resistance to any lnterforen.ee therewith.

"Finally, however, a few traaka ano, thanks to a persistentcampaign enterprisingly waged by th» Seattle Star, the ease washeard upon its merits by the Interstate commerce commission,and an order iß.s\ied, effective Feb. 16, removing the .lisciimina-tion. C. A. Reynolds, late publlo service commissioner, pre-sented the argument on behalf of Seattle and the Northwest,charging no fee for his services.

"But the order is not to tako effect Feb. 15. It has beenheld in abeyance until April 2, on an appeal for a rehearing bythe South.*™ Pacifio railway, supported soh.lly by the businessInterests of Southern California, and, If the order be upheld,further delay will be sought through an appeal to the supremeemirt.

"At best, therefore, the case Is only half won for the North-west, and Seattle must be up and doing to oonserve her inter-oats In the situation. The reply to the appeal for a rehearingMust be made by Feb. 38, and every stage of the proceedingswill require the closest attention and most expert ability obtain-able.

"Portland has subscribed 12,000 toward a Joint fund of(6,000 which the Northwest dties set out to raise; Seattle,strange to say, has as yet raised only $1,000, and a bill is pend-

fet*c at Olympla to appropriate a small sum as the state's part.However it is to be forthcoming, an adequate fund to carry the

"rtg'Tit to a*speedy and successful conclusion should be forthcom-ing without delay. With equitable rates, tourists will com* to

scribe to the tourist fund. Get behind the movement whole-heartedly and without another day's delay."

Most of the cruiser's engineswill have to bo abandoned, too,owing to the heavy cost of takingthem out.

The amount of equipment andmaterial that can be saved fromthe Milwaukee willbe worth |i>000,000, bay the contractors, butit would oont the navy departmentat least $700,000 to refloat herand put her In shape again.

YOU CAN'T HRCBH ORWANH Ol'T DANDRI'FF

The only sure way to get rid ofdandruff is to dissolve it, then youdestroy it entirely. To do this, getabout four ounces of ordinary

liquid arvon; apply it at nightwhen retiring; use enough tonini«ii>ii the scalp and rub It ingently with the finger tips.

Do this tonight, and by morn-lnijr, most if not all, of your dand-ruff will be gone, and three orfour more applications will com-pletely dissolve and entirely de-stroy every single sign and traceef It, no matter how much dand-ruff you may have.

You will find, too, that all Itch-ing and digging of the scalp willstop at once, and your hair willbefluffy, luetrous, glossy, silky andsoft, and look and feel a hundredtimes better.

You can get liquid arvon at anydrug store. It is inexpensive andnever falls to do the work... A M tl _» II

THE TAO^MA TTMES.

\u25a0 \i; I I,ks AS KIMIIV"The theater was crowded to the doors tho night we opened in

Philadelphia," said Paula."1 had not veen Earnest after I reached the hotel. He was never

visible to anyone the day before an opening night.

"I had heard the curtain go up and hurried to the wingi from |which 1 must make my entrance just In time to catch the torrenlß ;

ol ii|i|i!uiiM' that greeted Hutli Dayton who made her appearance onthe stage about a minute before I did.

" "Now, baby child, do your bent.' I started, for 1 did not know |that Earnest wax near me, but 1 did not have a chance to Bay a word |before 1 had to give that little giggling laugh 'off stage' which must jalways precede my entrance.

"1 was received in aileuce. Philadelphia theater-goers did notknow me, and Hip Quakers are worse than skeptics from Missouri —you certainly have to show them.

"lv a minute or two Earnest made his entrance and again theplace echoed to deafening applause. The play was on. Ruth waagetting every possible value out of every word and gesture and Earn- \u25a0

est wbh at his bent. I tried to keep on the same key."For some reason, however, I did not 'catch on' until my big

scene at the end of the second act. But as I began to repeat allover :i\;mi those pregnant words which supposedly told Earnest my '\u25a0

Innocent love Tor him, I let myself go. Again the speech went 'straight from my heart to hla.

" 'Oh, it Is true* baby child,' said Kaniest under cover of the •

roar of applause as I stood clasped in his arms, 'you do love me, jdon't you? 1 Then he had to take my arms from his neck and tell!me that he was engaged to another, but I did not hear the words of;the play he was saying, and when he gave me my cue, luatead ofspeaking as I should have done, I stood there with my hands hanging!at my sides looking into his face.

' 'liOve you,' 1 answered. '1 have loved you since the morningstars sang together, and 1 shall love you when chaos spreads dark-ness over the whole universe.'

"The morning papers, everyone, quoted that speech and said Itwas just what a high-strung sentimental girl would say under thecircumstances and that I said it with an art which seemed almostimpossible In so young an actress. One critic went further and saidtiini the look of consternation and surprise on Karuust's fuce as Ispoke was masterly and that hU li«hi hesitation at the end of myavowal was one of the big moments of the play.

"If that crltio could hava known that it was not acting butreality that he was looking upon, he might have had a more sensa-tiunai story, but he could not have called It dramatics criticism.

' For the love of heaven, what made you change that speech?'said Karnest as we loft the stage after the curtain went down. 'For amoment I thought you had suddenly gone cra/.y."

" 'Hut you asked me if I loved you,' I said.'"'But I did not expect you to answer before all those people.!

However, I'll forgive you. It was a great speech, not only for theplay but for me. Dearest child, you have made me very happy andeven if you have spoiled the scene I could not have been angry.,Only a girl as innocent as yourself or the Klga you were impersonat-ing would have said it. After the show, dearest, you shall say it tome .•ir.niu '

"We went hack to the hotel together, and Earnest ordered awonderful supper.

"Every little while he would refer to my speech.

" 'Do you really love mo as much as that, sweetheart?' he asked ;

more than once. 'You must remember you affirmed a lot and prom-ised a lot.' Then his eyes narrowed a little and lils> hand slid across,tho table and covered mine as agnin he said almost musingly, 'Iwonder how much you would do or how much you would sacrifice —for the man you loved!' "

HcYNTHIT11 GREY'S[[LETTERS

My Dear tyiss Grey: I,too, am Interested in yourcolumn. I have read thedifferent opinions on thesubject of poverty. "MereMan" 18 right. Poverty Ishell and there is no other.

Referring to Ruth and theother women who claim thatpoverty kills a woman's lovefor her husband. I do notthink it is the poverty somuch as the realization thatshe if tied to an lnrompe-tent man and the case lookshopeless. When faith andhope are destroyed, there isnot much foundation leftupon which to build love.Therefore, the wealthy woma-n with all material thingsat^her command loses herlove for her husband whenshe learns lie is false. Ofcourse, this is a rule thatworks both ways. Many afine young man has marriedthe wrong woman and beendeceived.

When we all become moreenlightened, when we lookupon niarrtaKe as a partner-ship where both persons arefree born and when womanheruslf learns that the littlescrap of paper called a mar-riage certificate does notmean that she is her part-ner's slave, but his equal inall things, when woman iseducated to bring childrenInto the world voluntarilyand intelligently, we will haveless poverty, less crime,leg* everything that Is unde-sirable and that has no place,and should not be tolerated

gers of the Pullman Company, The safetyof the cars, due to their unusually sturdy

construction; the sanitary condition in which they are main-tained; the numerous conveniences which their equipmentaffords, and the courtesy of the Pullman employes are allfactors contributing to the increased comfort and enjoymentof railroad travel.

In the Pullman car only a limited number of passengersare accommodated; there is no crowding. Operating overpractically every railroad in the country, it is rarely necessary

for the passengers to change cars from departure to destina-tion. Both of these conditions contribute to the safety andcomfort of unescorted women and children.

For fifty years the Pullman Company has directed itsefforts to the determination of the needs of the travelingpublic, and the development of a service to meet theserequirements. That twenty-nine per cent of Pullman con-ductors and twenty-five per cent of Pullman porters havebeen in the continuous service of the Company for over

ten years indicates the high personnel of the employes bywhom the service is rendered.

on this beautiful earth.Sentimentalists CM prate

about the sancity of mar-riage, but it looks to me asthough tho ceremony is notproperly understood by thevast majority. Every mar-ried person should realizethat the niariage ceremonydoes not mean unbridledlicense. It is as essential tolive clean, moral lives aftermarriage as before. Immor-ality in jnarrlage is the onething which destroys morehomes than all else com-bined. When children arefoTced upon a woman, and•yen the husband finds faultand does not want them andcannot provide for them,where 1h the "glory of moth-erhood"? And where is thesanctity of the manage rela-tion? ADA
