Little Julia Bennighotf's recitation

were a real treat. Mrs. Hungerford
gave an excellent rendering Of a popu-

her singing, but all oonoede that her

The audience was sympathetic and re-

Miss Gruwell's vocalization was never

will bring him a princely fortune.

EXTRACTION IN NEURALGIA.
Removing the Teeth Affords No Re-
lief and Is Sin, Says
This Authority.

The extraction of teeth for tri-
facial neuralgia is sin for which both
dentist and physician are responsible,
and in about the same degree-the
physician for sending the patient to
the dentist, and the dentist for extract
ing the teeth in such conditions, says
the Philadelphia Medical Journal.
Members of both professions should
have sufficient common sense, if not
professional education, to recognize the
fact that the extraction of sound teeth
not only gives no relief but that it is
most useless mutilation, which the pa
tient is sure to regret deeply because of
the injury to personal appearance and
the interference with digestion, and
for which their professional adviser is
certain to be severely censured. This
mistake mis- ht be more common, but it
is common enough, as is evidenced by
the statement of prominent surgeon
that he has been consulted during the
past two years by no less than six pa
tents, who had had the teeth in both
jaws uselessly extracted for tic doulour-
eux. The medical treatment of this
condition is not encouraging in its re-
suits, it is true; nevertheless, it should
be given a thorough trial, and if perse-
vered in will sometimes give permanent
results. In any case extraction of teeth
can have no possible permanent value.

THE CHARM OF YACHTING.
Elements That Lend Test to Ride
In Sea Racer During
Blow.

The charm of yachting rests very
largely upon its uncertainty. So elu-
sive are the elements of air and water
that from the moment when she is set
afioat until she is hauled out for repairs
a vessel is never at rest. The sea is for
ever seeking to force an entrance into
her from below, and the winds of heav-
en- are ever ready to snap her spars and
rend her canvas overhead. 1t is largely
luck if when she is first set afoat she
settles nearly enough to her estimated
water-line to satisfy the ideas of her
designer, and nothing but the keenest
watchfulness can keep her up to per-
feet standard of effectiveness when she
is called upon to endure the complicated
strains of a sailing match in a smart
breeze, says Lippincott's.
If anyone questions the difficulty of
such navigation, let him take the fam
lily umbrella and try to make it pull or
push him across the lawn against the
wind. This is precisely the problem
that confronts the yachtsman, save
only that in place of the umbrella he
has to manage a towering structure of
beliying canvas held aloft a hundred
and more feet by slender spars and net
work of cordage every fathom of which
beautiful-almosts notwithstanding of
canvas, wire and steel is to acquit her
self with credit

Secession I'm Brazil.

A movement is said to be on foot
among the people of the state of ANA
Zonas to secede from Brazil and estab-
lish separate republic. Amazonas is
said to be the only state in Brazil which
has any money, and its inhabitants
have grown tired of shouldering the
financial burdens Of the whole republic.
But before making such venture they
should read up history in order to learn
that secession movements do not pay.
In their case it probably would not pay
even should it succeed. Because 1t is
the biggest nation in South America
Brazil is one of the strongest, and were
1t to be broken up into petty states none
OF those states would possess strength
to live in the international contest for
the survival of the fittest."

RUSSIA'S FINANCES.
Vast Railway Plans Must Re POST
pOned Because of Stringency
I'm Money Market

A great deal of interest is aroused
in both political and financial circles
by the appeal for assistance now being
made by Russia in the London money
market. For many years to come, writes
Arnold White, in Harper's Weekly, Rus
STA will require large financial re-
sources to carry out her vast plans for
railway development in China, Persia
and Siberia. Unless London comes TO
the help of M. de Witte, the Russian
minister of finance, the building of these
railways, which bulk SO largely in the
scaremonger's eyes, is likely to be post
poned for an indefinite period. 1t
seems odd that Russia should come to
London to borrow money for the adj
vancement of schemes which are openly
designed to thwart the political and
commercial interests Of England and
the United States in the far east 1t is
unusual, to say the least of it, to invite
prospective victims to subscribe for the
expenses of their own interment. The
only ground on which the application
is to be justified is the cosmopolitan
character of modern finance, which
knows neither country nor patriotism.
Every shilling subscribed in England
or America for the building of Rus
sia's strategic lines in Asia will used
against them. The spirit in which that
portion of the Russian government
which is hostile to Anglo-Saxon deveI-
opment administers the affairs of the
interior of the empire and will admin
lister the far east. is shown in the arrest
and exile of thousands of students, and
in the closing of nearly all the prin-
cipal universities and colleges in Rus
STA.

QUEER BIT OF EUROPE.
A Small Community Where There
Are No Rulers, Soldiers
Nor Taxes.

About five miles southwest of Aix-la-
Chapelle, that well-known junction
where so many summer tourists jump
in and out of trains, there is tiny lit
tie village community called Altenberg,
or Vielle Montague, says the London
Daily Mail.
This little strip of a few hundred
acres owes allegiance to no king, kaiser
or president. 1t is an autonomous re-
principally of Monaco. It's population
is nearly 5000, and they are mostly
farmers, agriculturists and miners.
There are no police, no soldiers and
(happy land! y there are no taxes to pay.
In 1916 this little corner of Europe
was declared by the powers to be "neu-
trail ground" and it has maintained it's
independence ever since. There is
burgomaster and a council of elders of
the village community. They admin
lister such law as is found necessary, but
are not overworked in this respect, as
crime is practically unknown. The
country is picturesque, and for such
cry. The land is split up into little in
dividual allotments in the manner so
familiar to travellers on the continent.
The prosperity of the inha bitants de-
ponds upon a certain valuable calamine
mine, but small amount of farming IS
also successfully carried on.
Both French and German are spoken
and are often mixed up in a most curl
Gus manner.
Altenberg's chief claim to notoriety,
however, lies in the fact that the bor-
der of this tiny domain actually touch
es those of the adjacent countries of
Belgium, Holland and Germany.
Of the thousands who pass through
on their summer holi-
days to one of the many German baths.
few are probably aware that they arc
so close to this quaint little community.
