Naming of the Young Heir to the

Friction with the Vatican.

Rome. Sept. 1.-THE majority OF the
people approve the action of King VIC
tor Emmanuel in not choosing the IT,
tie of Prince of Rome for the heir to
the throne, born Thursday night, as 1t
would have mixed the royal family In
a party struggle and would have en-
bittered the conflict between church
and state at a time when the pope
seemed to be leaning towards modera-
ton. 1t is believed that the title
chosen, that of prince Of Piedmont,
will become fixed for all time for the
italian crown prince, as is the title OF
prince of Wales in England.
To celebrate the birth of the heir,
the king has granted amnesty to all
deserters and has also shortened by six
months the terms of Imprisonment for
certain crimes
King Victor Emmanuel has received
the warmest congratulations through
out the kingdom and also most cordial

Do Animals Think:

Animals have keen perceptions
keener in many respects than our own
but they form no conceptions, have
no powers Of comparing one thing
with another. They live entirely in
and through their senses. To all that
inner world of reflection, imagination,
comparison, reason, they are strangers.
They never return upon themselves in
thought They have sense of memory,
sense of intelligence, and they profit
in many ways by experience, but they
have not soul memory, or rational in
telligence. All the fundamental emo
tions and appetites men and the lower
animals share in common, such as fear,
anger, love, hunger, jealousy, cunning,
pride, curiosity, play, but the world
of thought and thought experience and
the emotions that 60 with it belong to
man alone.
"It is as if the psychic world were
divided into two planes, one above the
cther-the plane OF sense and the plane
of spirit. In the plane of sense live the
lower animals, only now and then Just
breaking for moment into the higher
plane In the world of sense man is
immersed also; this is his start and
foundation; but he rises into the plane
of spirit, and here lives his proper life.
He is emancipated from sense in a way
that beasts are not.-John Burroughs,
in Harper's Magazine.

full month at my work.
MY stomach, back and head would
throb SO ! could get no rest at night
except by fits and starts, and always
had distressing pains.
i was quite certain the trouble came
from my stomach, but two physicians
could not help me and all the tonics
failed and so finally I turned to food.

learned what might be expected from
leaving off meat and the regular food

change to Grape-Nuts would be lust
what was required, so | went to eat.

from the bad dreams. Indeed, this
food has made such a great change
IN me that my wife and daughter have
taken 1t up and we are never without
Grape-Nuts on our table nowadays.

frequently have nothing else at all
but saucer Of Grape-Nuts and cream

How Elephants Get Their Sleep.
''That elephant" said the circus

He is ninety, and what little sleep he
requires he takes on his feet.
'An elephant in his prime only
sleeps five hours night, and the older
he grows the less sleep he needs. This
good fellow here practically needs no
sleep at all. At whatever hour of the
day or night come to him, he stands
patiently in his place, rocking from
side to side. know he sleeps little,
but for years now his maps have been
so short that he hasn't bothered to lie
down for them. Nearly all old ele-
plants are like this. Louisville Cour-

RUSSIA is SATISFIED.
The Course Taken BY the United
States Satisfies Russia.

st. Petersburg, Sept. 1.-THE de-
cision to disarm the Russian cruiser
Lena, now at San Francisco, and to
keep her there until the end of the war,
was the result of a communication
from Capt. Berlinsky, commander of
the vessel, reporting that she required
extensive repairs and that it would be
difficult to complete them Within the
period allowed by the United States
authorities. The fact, however, that
there is little disposition to criticise
the decision of the United States shows
that the admiralty was not reluctant,
after receiving the captains report, to
a3qulesce in her disarmament. The
comment of the Russian press also in
dioates recognition of the fairness of
the course of the United States, the
prompt measures taken to protect the
Lena beirg especially commended.
