" Histocy of the Sword.
♦Ti!he sword cnme from ancient Egypi
ntuS was used through Palestine, Syria
and Asia Minor, India «nd throughout
the western world. It was in Egjpt
that the three shapes of the sword
■blade originated, these being the
I straight, the curved and the hall
' -curved. The Rtftnan sword was largei
r than that of the Greeks and In the
<iuys of the empire many of the sheath*
■were so covered with precious stones
! .as to be veritable art treasures. Amonf
-«he Moslems the highest title given tc
41 warrior of renown is "the swerd ol
Allah." The Chinese made swords 01
Iron as early as 1879 B. C.

"Because of the Particularly non
partisan character of the great coun
ell of defense system, it is singular
ly fitting that the foregoing aciton
should be taken. The honoring of
Theod'ore Roosevelt is a matter that
transcends party belief and personal
prejudices. He lived greatly for
America and that is enough to justi
fy even those who opposed him in
mourning his death. With iron
courage he performed a major opera
tion on the public morals of this
country at a time when public etlftcs
: ha<i' become dulled, and with daring
I and unailing dlgniuty he measurably
! increased the Prestige of Americans
abroad. Of no American can it be
more truthfull/ said- that his heart
wag incarnadine with the fla£. For
those things alone all Americns who
lived la his time should hold them
J selves in his debt and Bhould turn
aside on Sunday, the ninth d>ay of
February to honor hig passing from
the National State.

HOW MUCH DID THAT
LAST COLD COST YOU?
Figure it up in dollars and cents and see what you lost by
not having a botton of Ballard's Horrhound Cough Syrup at
hand. Had you take that remedy according to the plain printed
directions as soon as the cold is contracted you should not lo«e
a single day's time.
