Pie the Food for Warriors.

The Hartford Courant notes that
the soldier boys in camp at Mantle
last week wanted pie. Pie isn't part
of the bill! of fare at camp, but the
boys wanted it, and got it by sending
outside for it. We are glad they
wanted it. The man who doesn't love
pie is not fit for a fighter or anything
else. The hardy New England pio-
neers were pie eaters. The most in.
tellectual men of our times are pie
eaters. But tire is pie and pie. The
good kind is healthful and restful. The
poor kind isn't fit to feed the NAV of
a stone crusher.-Ridgefield IN. j.

Cathedral Project Not Popular.
Bishop Potter of New York Is ex.
periencing much difficulty in raising
the great sums necessary for the
construction of the Cathedral of St

waste OF money. So strong is this

Work Of Historian klopp.
Onno Klopp, the historian, who died

refused to let him consult the library
and archives at Hanover, where the
Leibnitz manuscripts are.
