I c-K-AT OPPORTUNITY OPc-NED TO STATE LEGISLATURES Fin-side, the national farm paper publish..! at Springfield. Ohio. Judson C. ■ iiivei. Washington correspondent of that publication, writes an interesting a:tie..-> iu which he shOw's why state hgi.latur.-s all over the United States do .tractive work. At last they are rid of the responsibility of electing . 1 United States Senators. Now that senat tor. are elected by popular vote state ' legislatures can devote their attention ' . \rlii«i»e|y and profitably to the. buviI I la— s for which they are realiv ere- ; at.*,! that of passing good law*. In ( the past these legislative bodies have ' spent Weeks and even months pulling and 1 ..iu ling and log-rolling over vna- , torial eh-etions at of Mi- ' - Mr. Weill wr think, that all over the : c uiury there will now a better opI'i.r: .ority for good legislation in regard! it.. I. ;tr roads and rural schools — two! 1 ' .,f great importance to American < wrm -rs. One reason legislatures in tie- just haven't attended to these mat-:*-,,t they didn't have time em-.iigli to learn.

The Proper Course Information of Priceless Value to Every Cape May C. H. Citizen j How to act in an emergency is know- . of inestimable worth, and this ' is partcularly true if the diseases and j ills of the human body. If you suffer I with kidney backache, urinary dis- • orders, or any form of kidney trouble. I the advice contained in the 'ollowing statement should add a valr e asset to your store of knowledge. ' at could be more convincing proof of t efficiency of Doan's Kidney Pills tl the statement of a nearby resident o has used them and publicly tells • the benefit derived. James Eames, Sr., 23 McNeill St., Millville, N. J., says: "About four years ago kidney complaint came on mc. First my back began to ache, then my whole body pained me.- The kidney secretions were unnatural. Doan's Kidney Pills relieved me. I gladly confirm my former endorsement of Doan's Kidney Pills and can say that they are a reliable remedy for curing kidney trouble. Another of my family who suffered from that complLnt used Doan's Kidney Pills with satisfactory results," b Price 50c. at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy— get Doan's Kidney Pills — the same that Mr. Eames t: had. Foster-Milburn Co.. Props., Buffak). N. Y. *

SAYS PERSECUTION I IS WORSE IN CITIES In the December American Mag- »1 name appear an article entitled I • "The Experiences of a Jew's) 1 Wife." It is a frank revelation of | ' the experiences of a Roman Cath-|' olic woman who married a Jew. In l their own home the wife and lius- ; 1 hand are exceedingly happy and ' ' devoted. But despite this, the ' i riler evidently does not believe 1 that there should be intermarriage ' between Jews and Gentiles on ac- i 1 count of the unpleasant social com- ; ' plications which are almost bound ' to arise from such unions. ShP ' says in part : * "We have tried two suburbs, and found the persecution even ' worse than in "exclusive' city dis- ' tricts. We have practically ceased | * associating with any persons vHio,1 are not Jewish. Of course we have " our friends and acquaintances 1 among other people who are tdop broad to draw racial lines. So we 1 live among the Jews, my husband's 4 l>eople. and have peace and plenty. ' :• a time even I have grown ' weary of constant turmoil and the ' eternal curling of lips. 1 "Our pride is in our boy. He r has developed into a strong and • aggressive character. My only fear ' is that he will overdo the resenting r of insultssand become overbearing. 1 Perhaps, lie. too, in time will see 1 the futility of fighting the world. ' "The othey day mv husband and c I were talking of our boy's -future. d ; " 'I hope.' said my husband a 8 bit sadly, 'that he marries some b good .Irish or German girl. Perhaps after thrhe generations iliey 1 will permit his children to be -1 Americans and not Jews.' a " 'J don't.' I replied hotly. 'I * hope lie marries some pretty Jew- '' isli girl and raises his family as Jews.' v t "Yes. and I meant it." B J STAR AND WAVE TIDE TABLE I q Daylight nigh Water at Oape May, f N.

HOW WAR RUINS FARMING I j In the current issue of Farm and | Kirsesidc the national farm paper pubat Springfield, Ohio, David Stare . I Jordan, president of Leland Stanford I I publishes a most interesting iyticie entitled "The Farmer and the War" in which he shows how in the path of armies the producer becomes , He compares our peace-loving land prosperous middle Western farm- \ ing country with Macedonia which was physically endowed as well as our middle West, but which unfortunately *"■ for 2,000 year* in a position where I ware Imb constantly interrupted its development. In the following extract from hi* article Doctor Jordan give* a picture of Macedonia: "There were no houses standing along the road. Everybody lived in the villages, even though the lands were ten miles away. And the villages were crowded just as closely as bouses could stand. ^5 1 And the farming was not very good. | The ground was barely scratched by the plow. Often in good land one would see stripe covered with blackand wild flowers. Other reacts overgrown with scrubby oaks and sometimes with wild lilaaa, although not a big tree was left standing to make a forest. The Turks once held Macedonia, and it would seem that they hated trees. Tfie Chinese have a proverb that 'where armies qnarter thorns and thistles grow.' and armies quart erd in Macedonia for twenty centuries. And for this reason there be no good farms. The cattle are and give but little milk. They used, with the primitive' Euroj>ean as beasts of burden. Horses r '■ and small and mostly vicious. sheep, the same breed they had in Jndea in Bible times, are "handsome and active, but carrying very little wool: a couple of pounds a year would a big average. "'There would be no use in improving the stork when the soldiers may come any minute. And between bands of soldiers come the bands of brigand'. brigand in Macedonia, as in Mexico, and China, is a farmer who has quit. If he can't make a living on the or if someone has seized his farm becomes an armed tramp. •"The farmer who is rich and prospertoday may have to leave the countomorrow on two hours' notice, by the light of his blazing house, with whatever lie can carry on his back." KILL LOBSTERS KINDLY Boiling over a slow fire is the happiest death a lobster can meet, ■ so it has been determined at the j Jersey marine liioiogiea) station. i experiments were carried out j Joseph Sine], a well known bilologist. for the Isle of Jersey Soiciety for the Prevention of Cruelty I to Animals, whose members assojeiated the prevalent method of lobsters with medieval tor- | litre. I/ilisters. says Mr. Sinel. are extremely hard to kill: Piercing the I brain does not seem to cause the more than teinporarys anl noyanee since his brain is a mere : ganglion the size of a hemp seed. He has to be killed all over throw him into boiling water to do the work either mercifulor quickly since he struggles violently to escape for about two minutes. ! The plcasantest way to end a troubles Mr. Sinel finds is old fashioned way of placing in cold water and bringing him to a boil. As the water warms he becomes lazy and rolls over as a sleep. By the time the water reaches the comparatively ^ mild temperature of 70 degrees Fahrenheit he lieeomes comatose. At 80 degrees he is dead. To use a huillustration, the biologist says it is like a person succumbing to a heat wave with loss of consciousness and a painless end. — London Cor. New York Post.

A CACTUS FENCE TO KEEP OUT THIEVES In the "Garden and Orchard" department of the current issue of. Kami and Fireside a contributor tells as follows about a rancher in California who thieves out of his apricot orchard and orange grove by a cactus "This fence ranges in height' f:wi 6 to 12 feet, and in thickness froei 4 8 feet. "The leaves of this cactus, which in instances are 1 foot in width and 2 feet long, bear spines, from I to 2 inches in length. When a person is pricked by one of these spines it does not hurt atvreat deal at the time, b it hour or so afterward the p:>in starts ami continues f«r seven1 1 hour*. "During the three or four v^rs of the life of this cactus fence, the spiny have grown so dense and haru so intermingled that you can see through the hedge: After the first year of the fence's growth the rancher exj>eri*ilced no ttoubie from
