THREE QUEER CITIES.
Each One Is Built ON Islands Connected
by Many Bridges.

by Many Bridges.
The city Of Ghent, in Belgium, is.
built on 26 islands. These islands are
connected with each other by 80
bridges. The city has 300 streets and 80
public squares. 1t is noted for being the
birthplace of Charles V nd.&xs0l1nsQ OF.
Gaunt, whom Shakespeare called "time
honored Lancaster" and as the scene Of
the pacifcaticn of Ghent Nov. s, 1916,
and of several instructions, sieges and
executions of we'll known personages. 1t
is associated with American history by
the treaty made there Dec. 81, 1914,
terminating the second war between
England and the United States, known
as the war Of 1919.
Amsterdam, in Holland, is built on
piles driven far below the water into,
the earth. The city is intersected by
many canals, which are spanned by
nearly 800 bridges, and resembles Ven
ice in the mingling Of land and water,
though it is considerably larger than
that city. The canals divide the city,
which is about ten miles in ciroumfer-
ence, into 80 islands.

islets, which are connected by nearly
400 bridges. Canals serve for streets in
Venice, and boats, called gondolas, for
carriages. The bridges are, as rule,
very steep, rising considerably in the
middle, but have easy steps. The Cir
conference of the city is about eight
miles. The venetians joined the Lom
bard League against the German en-
peror, and, in 1177, gained great vic
tory in defense of Pope Alexander III,
over the feet of war vessels headed by
{, Otto, son of Frederic Barbarossa. In
gratitude for this victory the pope gave
the Doge Ziani a ring, and instituted
the world famous ceremony of 'Venice
Marrying the Adriatic Sea-" In this
ceremony the doge, as the chief ruler Of
Venice used to be termed, with appro-
pirate ceremonies dropped a ring into
the sea every year in recognition Of
the wealth and trade carried to Venice
by the Adriatic.

To Examine the Eve,

If anything gets into your eye, don't
rub it. Good advice, but little diff
cult to follow, for one instinctively rubs
the eye under these circumstances.
Nevertheless, don't do so. Get some one
to turn the upper eyelid gently over a
thin penholder, SO that he may see the
ball of the eye thoroughly. II lime gets
into the eye and if you see the substance
at once, wash out the eye with vinegar

THE AUTHORSHIP

The Delaware county convention
which was held at Manchester, on july
80, resulted in a victory fer Hon. Frank
Merriam over Mr.. uaeberle, who was Il
candidate for state treasurer. The Bur
lngton Hawkeye has the following to
say in regard to the convention:
No doubt the victory is matter for
much personal consolation to Mr.. Mer-
riam, the fact that it was achieved only
after one of the most stubbornly fought
contests known to county politics will
scarcely serve 10 strengthen him in the
state at large. 1t has never been the
policy of any party toespouse the cause
OF candidate who fails to meet with
the hearty and enthusiastic endorse
ment OF his immediate neighborhood.
The reasons are too plain to require
elucidation. We have no doubt that
MIR. Merriam possesses the qualifica-
tlons necessary to insure successful
administration of the department. of
auditor of state, but it is his misior-
tune to have incurred hostility of the
most bitter and pronounced kind
among those who ought to know him
best. The partys should not be called
upon to arbitrate these local differ
ences. The nominee of the Dubuque
convention should command the hearty
and unstinted support of his immediate
neighbors and should come to the con-
vention free from all ''entangling alli-
ances.N

The American Volunteers.

The St Louis Globe-Democrat paws
a glowing tribute to the American vol
unteers, but every word of its eulogy
Is deserved. The military officers
VINO have come from abroad to witness
operations of the army and navy"
says The Blobe-Democrat. ARE more
surprised by the volunteer system than
oy anything else they see." They Won
der at the confidence that we repose
in such a plan for raising armies. 1t
contrasts very strikingly with the con-
script system of continental Europe.
In a few weeks our army of $1,000 men
mas been raised to more than $50. 600
and will by the end of this month
reach a strength Of 270, 900. And all of
these volunteers, not a man Of them
being in the service against his will.
The foreign officer, The Globe-Demo-
crat says, admits that Gin numbers the
volunteers are undeniably ample. But
he doubts their value for speedy scr
vice. He calls them raw levies. The
phrase in America has a meaning diff
ferent from that attached to it in Eu-
rope. The American volunteer is a
fighter effective after a very short
training. A hundred years Of history
attest this fact"
All that is true, and there is equal
- SAo Al otooN-
Democrat says in praise OF u volun-
teers and in noting their superiority
over the European conscripts. The
American volunteer can be transform
ed from farmer, mechanic, labOrer,
clerk, student, idler,. or any other Of
the varied designations of classes or
callings, into an effective fighter with
comparatively little training. For this
reason, among others, we do not need
a large standing army.
But some training is needed-is ac-
tually Indispensable. The militia-or

put an army of 100, 600 to 200, 600 of or
gained, armed equipped, and disci-
plined men into the field-should re-
ceive the judicious and unremitting
care of congress. With such a reserve
we may safely dispense with a large
force of professional soldiers. The
volunteers may always be relied upon
to defend the honor of the flag, but If
| none Of them are properly organized,
armed, equipped, and disciplined whe
