AGAINST D'RoEHN.
Runaway Collector Fails to Return and
Case Decided by Default.

Case Decided by Default.
Burlington, July IA judgement
was rendered IL city court against } w.
DeRoehn, the runaway collection agent
who operated an agency in the Strong.
The case was brought by John Looney
and Judgment was rendered for him to
recover damages Of s57 and costs Of
1926. This is only one OF a number Of
cases pending against DeRoehn In
every case it was necessary that con-
tinuance be taken in order that the de-
fendant might have proper notice. He
has not been seen in Burlington since his
hurried departure when he learned that
creditors were after him.
When DeRoehn first came here he se-
cured a large amount of business from
various concerns and his methods proved
successful The only trouble was that
he failed to turn the money he collected
over to the concerns to which ii belong
ed This caused some discomfort and
writs We're issued against DeRoehn but
he had his ear to the ground and before
the officers reached his Office he was well
on his way out OF the state.

RAILWAYS IN BELGIUM.
Unique System in Operation on the
Government Roads.

Railway travel is cheap in Belgium, ac-
cording to a report received at the State
Department from United States Consul Nc
Nally at Liege. He says that the Belgian
state~ralway sells tickets on a time basis
which enables the holder to travel continu-
ously, if desired, for the period stated on
the ticket, within the limits of the country
For instance, 8. five-day ticket Will cost
S3.S6, and fifteen-day ticket STU Dur
ing the life of one of these tickets it
serves as a pass, and 1t is only necessary
to show it upon request. The above rates
refer to second class only All that is re-
quired to obtain these tickets is to present
at the office an unmounted photograph of
small size, which is attached to the ticket
as a means Of Identification When the
ticket is purchased an extra 96l2 cents is
demanded for the safe return of the ticket
after it's term of usefulness expires. On
the morning after the expiration of tte
ticket 1t can be delivered at any ticket
office along the line and the extra amount
paid will be returned. An extra charge is
made for baggage, except such as is car
ried by hand The charge for a trunk or
box is about half the fare of the passenger
travelling second class, which. the consul
says, is always the popular grade in Bel
GUM and comfortable in every way.

Australian Federation Insufficient.
From the Sydney Bulletin.

Although the Australian commonwealth
Is only in The fourth year of it's existence,
and it may seem early yet to talk of sub
sttuting an improved machine for one
which has had so very short trial, yet it
is none too soon to remind all good Austria
liam federstlists that their work is by no
means finished. Australia has achieved
federation but it is not sufficient to sit
down and admire the beautiful machine
that has been created. As a matter of
fact In Australians circumstances, fedora
ton is very insufficient device.

The Hansom's Glory Waning.

From the London 0nlooker.
1t is the constant falling of the hanson
cab which accounts for its decline. Its glory
is departing We have discovered that there
is no real enjoyment in hanging on tightly,
and firmly planting both feet against the
doors while a scared horse goes skating
down perlous inclines: moreover, women
especially resent the monetary loss they
suffer by the contact of dirty wheel with
a new frock Several well-known fashiona-
ole ladies use nothing now but ''coupes,"
or falling them four wheelers.

Where are the soldiers stationed in this
country, Mr.. Secretary"
'"They are to be found in every part of
It," was the reply. Eve had a rearrange-
ment of the military commands last jan
uary. BY these the territory of the United
States is divided into five grand military d.
visions. each of which is divided into two or
more military departments. Each division
is commanded by major general, and ca CHI
of the departments, with one exception is
under a brigadier general. Four of the five
divisions comprise the United States proper
and the other is In the Philippine division
The Atlantic division includes all the east
ern states, taking in the Atlantic coast the
gulf coast as far as Louisiana and the
Canadian frontier as far as Lake Erie. If
You will draw line from Erie Pa, to Mo-
bile, Ala, you will mark the western boun-
dairy OF that division. The northern division
takes in large part of the basin of the
Ohio, the Missouri and the upper Mississippi
and all our northern states from Lake
Erie to western Montana. 1t is divided
into the three departments of the Lakes,
the Missouri and the Dakotas The
southwestern division takes in the lower

and territories and states along the west
ern frontier. 1t is divided into the depart
mont of Texas and that of Colorado. The

Are You Too Plump

How to become slenderl Let the maid
en- inclined to embonpoint follow this
advice, and her form should become as
willowy as she could wish; Rise early
and take a cold bath, rubbing vigorous
ly afterward with a coarse towel or
flesh brush. Take cupful of water
before breakfast. Take one small cup
Of tea at breakfast, some dry toast,
boiled fish or a small outlet and a bak-
ed apple or a little fruit At dinner,
which should be at midday, take white
fish or meat, dry toast or stale bread,
vegetables or fruit (elther fresh or
stewed); for supper, toast, salad, fruit
and six ounces of wine OF water. Hot
water with lemon juice in it is also
good for supper. When you have fol-
lowed all these rules and find yourself
fairylike in proportion then you may
begin to contemplate smart clothes
such as only the slender can wear.

THE GAME OF TURTLE.
The Player with the Strongest Nus

The Player with the Strongest Nus
cIes Wins Out.
Here's a game for boys and girls
who have good, strong muscles. II is
called turtle"
Any number may play, and no one
player Is "it." for all are "it' together.
The game commences by each chOos-
ing the kind Of turtle he intends TO be.
One perhaps is a land tortoise, another
a snapper, another a mud turtle, and
so on. Then they all sit in a row,
resting their chns on their knees, and
each holding his left ankle with his
right hand and his right ankle with his
left hand This is a very difficult posi-
tion TO keep. AT a given signal the
turtles start for a goal short distance
away.
1t is the object of the game for the
turtles TO waddle to the goal and back
10 the starting point without removing
their hands from their feet. Many LEI
go before the proper moment, the 9th
ers shout, Dead turtle.'. and keep on
leaving their unfortunate companion In
the background. The rules Of the
game demand that he wait there unit
the first successful racer reaches hin
on his way back and touches him witt
his elbow. by which he is supposed tC
instill new life into the poor dead tur
tie. The latter Immediately starts ouf
again and finishes in the best style he
can. AS there are always several dead
turtles. he is never lonely In his effor
TO succeed. The winner IS, Of course
the one who returns to the starting
place first.

few moments remove the coin, and
nothing will be seen on the surface,
but breathe on It where the coin was
lying. and an image OF II VIII appear.
If you polish the coin instead OF the
metal or glass the same effect will be
produced when you breathe on the sur
face.
II you have a plate OF glass that has

the lines Of the engraving will become

rarely.
Does all this sound like magic2 The
explanation is a natural one. On the
surface Of all solids a layer OF gas,
vapor and fine dust gathers. When
you polish the object the layer is re
moved or It is altered by the contact
OF other solids If the object is breath
ed upon the breath condenses more
easily on some parts than It does on
others, according TO the condition or
state OF this layer, and therefore any
marks made on 1t will become visible.
