Airshins In War.

The vision of aerop1anes and diri-

havoc against the enemy's fleets,
camps and cities is badly dimmed by
the news item from Berlin. This con-

in these columns by the statement
that tests of new projectile to be
fred from an army rifle proved its
ability to cripple any airship that
comes within it's range The projec-
tile is small shell, which sets fire
to balloons and would injure an aero.
plane so as to cause it's immediate
fall.
While the tests at Halense are not
officially announced, it would be an
aspersion on the inventive resources

CINE to make offensive war so horrible
that it must be abolished.

open arms. With youth of his pro.
clivities and inherent weakness the
outcome was inevitable. At no time
overload of study, he regarded resi-
dence in college as a most desirable
emancipation from the restraint of
home life. The love of books he con-
sidered a pose and he scoffed at the
men who took their reading seriously.
The university attracted him mostly
by its most undesirable features, its
sports, its secret societies, it's petty
cliques, and its rowdyism. The broad
spirit and the dignity of the alma
mater he ignored completely. Directly
he went to Yale he started in to en-
joy himself and with the sophisticated
Underwood as guide, went to the
devil faster than any man before him
in the entire history of the university.
Reading, attendance at lectures, be-
came only a convenient cloak to con-
ceal his turpitudes. Poker playing,
automobile joy rides, hard drinking
became the daily curriculum. In
town rows and orgies of every descrip-
ton he was soon recognized leader.
Scandal followed scandal until he was
threatened with expulsion. Then his
father heard of it and there was a
terrible scene. Jeffries, ST., went i'm
mediately to New Haven and there
followed stormy interview in which
Howard promised to reform, but once
the parents back was turned things
went on pretty much as before. There
were fresh scandals, the smoke Of
which reached as far as New York.
This time Mr.. Jeffries tried the plan
of cutting down the money supply and
Howard found himself financially en-
barrassed. But this had not quite
the effect desired by the father, for,
rendered desperate by his inability
to secure funds with which to carry
on his sprees, the young man started
in to gamble heavily, giving notes for
his losses and pocketing the ready
money when he won.
Then came the supreme scandal
which turned his fathers heart to
steel. Jeffries, ST., could forgive much

himself once. None knew better than
he how difficult it is when the blood
is rich and red to keep oneself in
control. But there was one offence
which a man proud of his descent
could not condone. He would never
forgive the staining of the family
name by degrading marriage. The
news came to the unhappy father like
thunder-clap. Howard, probably in
a drunken spree, had married secretly
waitress employed in one of the
sporty" restaurants in New Haven,
and to make the mesalliance worse,
the girl was not even of respectable
parents. Her father, Billy Delmore,
the poolroom king, was a notorious
gambler and had died in convict
stripes. Fine sensation that for the

That was the last straw for Mr.. jeff

again. Howard bowed his head to
the decree and he had never seen his
father since.

Almost none of the things which

Beino Natural.

Can you, if you be the gentler sex.
walk down the street behind an ele-
gantly gowned woman and restrain
the impulse to initiate her poise of
head, her carriage and the fascinating
ways she possesses? Have you ever
been in a crowded room where one
woman was the center of attraction
and seen someone trying to initiate
her? A woman is most charming
when she is natural. A woman who is
natural, even in her erratic moods,
does not give offense. One cannot imi-
tate the ways, manners and style of
another without appearing ridiculous.
The incest women we meet are those
who do not pose or seek to initiate

posed to temptation. But for those
born with the devil in them it came
hard. 1t was all matter of heredity
and influence. Ones vices as we'll as
ones virtues are handed down to US
ready made. He had no doubt that
in the Jeffries family somewhere in the
unsavory past there had been a weak,
vicious ancestor from whom he had
inherited all the traits which barred
his way to success.
The crowds of hungry workers grew
bigger every minute. Every one was
elbowing his way into neighboring
restaurants, crowding the tables and
Bullets, all eating voraciously as they
talked and laughed. Howard was
rudely reminded by inward pangs that
he, too, was famished. Not thing
had passed his lips since he had left
home in Harlem at eight o'clock that
morning and he had told Annie that
he would be home for lunch. There
was no use staying downtown any
longer. For three weary hours he had
trudged from Office to office seeking
employment, answering advertise
ments, asking for work of any kind,
ready to do no matter what, but all to
no purpose. Nobody wanted him at
any price. What was the good of a
man being willing to work If there
was no one to employ him? A nice
lookout certainly. Hardly a dollar
left and no prospect of getting any
more. He hardly had the courage to
return home and face Annie. With a
muttered exclamation of impotence
he spat from his mouth the half-con-
sumed cigarette which was hanging
from his lip, and crossing Broadway,
walked listlessly in the direction OF
Park place.
He had certainly made mess OF
things, yet at one time, not so long
ago, what a brilliant future life
seemed to have in store for him! No
boy had ever been given a better
start. He remembered the day he
left home to go to Yale; he recalled
his fathers kind words of encour-
agement, his mothers tears. All, If
his mother had only lived, Then,
maybe, everything would have been
different But she died during his
freshman year, carried off suddenly
by heart failure. His father married
again, a young woman 20 years his
junior, and that had started every
thing off wrong. The old home life
had gone forever. He had felt like
an intruder the first time he went
home and from that day his fathers
roof had been distasteful to him. Yes,
that was the beginning of his hard
luck. He could trace all his misfor-
tunes back to that He couldn't stand
for stepmother, a naughty, selfish,
supercilious, ambitious creature who
had little sympathy for her predeces-
sor's child, and no scruple in show
ing it.
Then, at college, he had met Robert
Underwood, the popular upper class
man, who had professed to take a
great fancy to him. He, timid young
freshman, was naturally f1attered by
the friendship of the dashing, fascinat-
ing sophomore and thus commenced
that unfortunate intimacy which had
brought about the climax to his trou-
bles. The suave, amiable Underwood,
whom he soon discovered to be a gen.
tlemanly scoundrel, borrowed his
money and introduced him into the
sporty set, an exclusive circle into
which, thanks to his liberal allowance
from home, he was welcomed with
