Rome, Feb. 24:-The Pope today
placed a ban on the "harem" skirt.
The Osseryator Romano, the vatican
organ, says the Pope strongly dis
approves OF the sharem' skirt be-
cause it is calculated to diminish
the wearer's self respect and to
abolish such distinction" The paper
says the wearers OF the skirt will be
excluded from all Catholic churches.

he is an essential monogamist,"
while, on the other hand, she is not.
She declares that she has not made up
her mind whether she will marry
Kemp. She says that, like every 9TH
er woman, she hungers for her real
mate" and that when she finds him
she will marry him. She does not
know whether Kemp is her real
mate"
Mrs. Sinclair defined essential mo
nogamist." She said that such a one has
three qualitjes-frst, he is not able to
devote his time to his wife; second.
he should not be so absorbed in his
work that he is not able to keep his
wife from being seen with other men,
and, third, she said her husband was
overdeveloped Intellectually.
She admitted that woman is an in
stinctive monogamist, but said that
the hunger for a real mate"-and she
was most insistent on the word
smate'-is so strong that sometimes a
woman has to commit sin before she
can find him.

Gated in each end Of the ship at the
extreme end of the cone, and there is
q companionway between them which
runs the entire length Of the ship and
uses the bamboo keel as a floor. The

cabin being located in the center.
The four engines each weigh 172
pounds and generate thirty-two horse
power. They n Of a special rotary
type and are practically vibrationless.
They have been tested for months and
found to work perfectly under all con
ditions. Each Of the engines in the
end of the ship is located but twenty
one inches from the propellers.
The arrangement Of the propellers
and the method by which they are con
trolled are special features Of this air
ship. The end propellers are mounted
on flexible shafts and are connected
by ball and socket joints. 1t is there
fore possible for them to be turned to
pull straight ahead or at any desired
angle. Thus it is not necessary for the
atrshdp to depend upon rudders for
steering and so be always more or
less at the mercy of wind currents.
Its course a always be altered by
changing the angle at which the pro-
pellers ar pulling. and it a even
turn in its own length if necessary.
The side %propellers are also mounted
on flexible shafts and can be made to
pull straight up or down or forward or
at any angle between these directions.
These side propellers, it Is claimed,
will make it possible for the airship
to be almost entirely independent Of
ballast during flight. They will make
it possible for the ship to ascend or
descend to its landing place in a YER
tical line or to rise suddenly to higher
attitudes in order to avoid storms and
wind currents. When the propellers
r all pulling directly forward it is
expected they will give the airship a
speed of sixty miles an hour.
The covering of the airship is COM
posed Of $500 square yards Of the
finest pongee silk and is metallized by
q special process SO as to increase it's
gas holding properties. It is first treat
ed in big cement watts with a solution
that preserves the silk. 1t is then
covered with eleven coats of different
materials. the last being of aluminium.
After the final coat is applied the silk
is practically impervious to gas and
under test has held gas for nine
months.
A crew Of four men will be required
to operate the ship, with one man for
each engine. The man in the front
coming tower will be the pilot. There
will be windows on all sides Of the
front tower SO the pilot can see clearly
in all directions. He will be In con-
slant communication with the other
engineers by means of a telephone sys-
tenn and signals and will be able at all
times 70 direct the ships movements.

The ship will be $50 feet long and
40 feet in height. 1t is designed for a
crew Of four and a capacity of forty

six propellers. The gas bag will have
a capacity Of 22S.OOO cubic feet.
The methods of construction give
the ship sufficient strength, while at
the same time they make it consider

Of the ship. The keel has a crushing
strength Of 10000 pounds. Sections of
aluminium six feet square form the
framework. These sections are first
covered with silk and then riveted to-

braced to the center hub of the ship

Hu1nOr and
Philosophy
THE MAGIC WORD.
By DUNCAN N. Smith

II you would hurry to success
Without the shadow Of a guess,
Your honeyed path serenely choose
A winter where the others lose
And be the leader in the game
With honor, riches, power and fame
Here is the key and secret straight:
Concentrate.
When you are listed for a task
Don't forty thousand questions ask
And fool around an hour or so
Before you strike a single blow.
Go at 1t as a busy bee
Without another t:ling to see
And. working early. working late.
Concentrate.
Don't let your mind go on a chase
Through all the mystic realms of space.
Go skipping lightly here and there
And in and out and everywhere
Except upon the work at hand
The problems that before you stand.
To keep the task and record straight
Concentrate.
The heller SHELTER rattle brain
Observes his labors all in vain.
The mar whose mind is focused strong
Upon his task cannot go wrong.
Uniting brain and soul and heart,
He wins before the others start.
He knows the secret of the great
Concentrates.

was sober, and showed no signs Of
intoxication. On cross examination,
witness McCauley admitted drinking
with Cowan and stated that the occa-

belonged to the Cowan machine, or
to any wing Of the Republican party.

Does this not plainly exhibit the
hand Of manipulation and specula ton
that is robbing the Canadian farmer
also, operating within the United
States?
The Free Trader.
| noticed an article by farmer who
opposed Canadian reciprocity, yet IA
vored free trade or course he wants
the free trade part applied to the
other fellow. Let's see how his phil
fellow we go to is the wooden manu-.
facturer and sheep raiser. He replies
y
thing We buy is too high and we
should have free trade, but go to
the other fellow" Then we go to the
sugar refiner, beet and cane raisers
and they reply, Yes, We want free
trade, but go to the other fellow"
Then We go to the cotton manufac-
turer and raiser and they reply, Eyes,
we want free trade but go to the other
fellow" We go the whole round and
get the same reply. Nonsense" ie
the label of such free trade argument.
Consistent Protectionist.
The only consistent argument is by
him whom says that reciprocity at
this time is the initial step towards
destroying the whole protective sys.
TEN and that is just why I am for
reciprocity with Canada. Because the
farmer must pay, the tariff is part
of the purchasing price OF what he
buys, yet the farmer canno' add or
shift the burden when he sells wheat,
fax, barley, etc, hence, it becomes an
axiom that those and those only who
do not control the price Of the one OF
the other-what he buys or what he
sells-are the ones who bear the bur
den of tariff or protection.
We must not forget the fact that We
have reciprocity agreements now in
force with twenty nations, and We
have had reciprocity agreements
which have expired by their owl
terms with some twenty countries. Nc
! injury has resulted from the expira
ton. The reciprocity with Germany
has materially aided the stock raiser
| James G. Blaine, while secretar' o.
state, proved his ability as states
man in developing reciprocity.
