there has been marked increase in

is nothing in this feature of the sit

we would commend to holders is: If

Everything, of course, is not exact
iy as we should like to have it. For
example, there is shortage of 40 per
cent in the flaxseed crop, which has
hurt the National Lead Company, and
caused an extraordinary rise In the
cost Of linseed oil; but that is all the
better for the people who have lin
seed oil to soil. and will help them
probably to make good any losses
they may have sustained in previous
years, just as the high price of cot

Johann Gottfried Gale died at Pots
dam July IL. His departure has caused
not ripple in the motion of the earth
yet it has not been SO long time since
his name was in the mouth of the
whole scientific world; for it was to
his clear vision that the place of Nep-
tune among the heavenly bodies was
fixed. Gale was a great astronomer.
on September 20. 1916. he was the first
to see the new planet from the Observ-
atory at Berlin, having been requested
by Jean Joseph Leverrier, teacher or
astronomy in the Ecole Polytechnique at
Paris, to look for 1t in the place as
signed to 1t first by John Couch Ad-
ans. an English astronomer, and at
forwards rLeverrier. This discovery
was an event unique in scientific his
tory, and was brought about by the
disturbance in the motion of Uranus
caused by the attractive force OF Nep-
tune. From 1880 to its discovery as
planet by Herschel, Uranus had been
repeatedly recorded as 1iXed star.
Later observations did not agree with
earlier observations, and 1t became
evident either that the earlier obser-
vations were erroneous or that Uranus
was running wild. Adams suggested
to the Royal Astronomer of Great
Britain that these orbital Irregular
ties could be accounted for by the
presence of planet OF sufficient mass.
The Royal Astronomer did not appear
to care anything about It. and when
appeal was made to Leverrler, tha'
great Frenchman proved in two papers
submitted by him to the French Acad-
envy that only an exterior body could
produce the Irregularities in the IRA
MAN orbit Gale was asked to look
for it, and he found 1t within less than
one degree from the spot indicated by
the French,lan in his calculations,

STOLEN FOR AN AMERICAN.

The story that Davinci's master
piece, the Mona Lisa portrait, has
been stolen from the Louvre gallery
in Paris lacks conhrplation. although
the New York Sun, connoisseur in
art, says that the" consensus Of
opinion was that in view of similar
thefts that have been made from the
Louvre and considering the value and
charm of Davirci's great painting, its
acquisition sooner or later by a col
lector Of unlimited means was not at
all Improbable Which would seem
to prove that there are some art col
lectors of unlimited means who ought
to be in the penitentiary. We have
known of robberies of the same sort
before in this country--down South
during the war when family treasures
We're stolen to enrich Northern col
lectors; but that was done In an
abnormal condition of things. 1t seems
however, that the breed of thieves has
not improved greatly, since it is re-
marked, without surprise, that some
collector was expected to steal Mona
Lisa" There are many sacred relics
In the churches of Europe, and it
will not surprise us If some collec-
tor of unlimited means shall yet bar

themselves at least comparatively
safe.
1t is said that New York mill
lionaire collector has the original
Mona Lisa" and that his initials are
| "E X. w. w" We do not know any
| collector with such initials; but 1t
would appear that the thief has been
traced as far as New York, and that
is something for the detectives to
begin with. Is there anything In our
laws which would compel the receiver
], of such stolen goods as this to give
up his swag? Suppose the original
, picture is in New York. how is any
e body to prove 1t, and how is the

certain that Porter Charlton uld not
