DUCK RIOS ROOM OF FLIES
Management. of Chicago Hotel Will in
the Future Pin Its Faith to
Domestic Bird.

The manager of big Chicago hotel
has found a very simple solution OF
the fly problem. 1t is a flock Of ducks.
The ordinary hotel perhaps has no
particular accommodations for live
ducks; but in this there sa fountain
In the center of the approaches to the
various dining rooms. The fountain
has a large basin. and just by way OF
novelty the manager several months
ago placed few ducks In the water.
They padded around and enjoyed 1t.
and the guests enjoyed seeing them.
But, better still, the ducks also enjoy
ed the flies that attempted to enter
the dining rooms and feast upon the
good things therein. The tiies-in
Chicago, at least-fy low; and ducks.
as any one who has ever seen them
knows. are especially quick In catch
ing insects. The consequence Is, this
particular hotel. once troubled with
flies, now has practically none. And
the ducks, once lean to verge OF
scrawniness, are fat and sleek.
The duck method Of disposing OF
the fly nuisance cannot. OF course. OBJ
tain in private households to any de-
gree: but in this particular hostelry
the ducks have caused the wire fly
swatter and traps to be thrown into
the ash heap.
Perhaps next year the enterprising
manager will attach some sort Of q
meter to every duck. so that at the
end of the season he can tell how
many flies each busy fowl has disposed
of with neatness and despatch.

Found Use for Sawdust.

In the consideration Of change
from steam to electric drive in st.
Paul (Minn.) saw and box mill, the
one stumbling block was the matter OF
the disposition Of the sawdust accumu-
lated about the machinery. Under
the old system this was made use Of
under the boilers, and thus it saved
the expense of fuel and of being car
ried away, but the. problem was event
ually solved by the erection OF stor-
age house where the sawdust was
stored in the shape of bales and dis
uosed of during the winter, when 1t
demanded higher price than could
be secured in the summer. In winter
the material Is in demand for bedding
in stables. The change from steam
to electricity proved to be desirable
one from every standpoint after the
matter Of the disposal of the refuse
was solved in this manner.

PLENTY OF MONEY in ITALY
Burden of Financing the War With
Turkey Has Not Been Appreela-
bly, Felt by the People.

An illustration of the hitherto un-
suspected prosperity of Italy Is the
fact that she has not had tc borrow
. cent Of foreign money for the ex-
pense OF her war with Turkey. This
war had cost Italy up to May II
S41.sS0.O00, or just 100000 a day,
alace 1t began on September 27. 1911.
Nevertheless, her sh per cent. govern.
ment bonds are quoted in the markets
Of Europe between 81 and SO. varying
OF course. from day to day. Bonaldo
Sringher, director-generaI of the
Bank Of Italy. has Just made an Of.
Hcial report stating that italian en-
igrants send at least $9o.00o,0o a year
back home. while tourists spend al
most II not quite rs much in Italy.
Either one of these sources Of wealth
would more than suffice to pay the
entire expenses Of the war. Money
is 80 abundant in Italy that when
popular subscriptions weree opened in
many cities for military aeroplanes to
be presented to the government, the
lists were filed in few days, the
total amount of the subscriptions far
exceeding those of similar nature in
France. in spite OF the wave of popular
enthusiasm for aeroplaring in the
latter country. 1t Is worthy Of note
that this war has cost Italy In human
lives only 81 officers and $40 men.
according to the official figures, an
unprecedentedsy small loss for eight
months Of active warfare.

Marvellous Surgical Feat.

An ex.soldier. named BlomQuist, has
Just been pronounced cured. in Stock
holm, Sweden, after one OF the most
remarkable operations on record. A
year ago Blomquist was accidentally
shot in the head during the maneuv-
ers, and it was found that one half Of
the brain had been injured. and that
the only chance Of life for the patient
lay in its removal. After much de-
liberation by the doctors the perilous
operation was performed. with the
marvellous result that within a few
weeks Blomquist recovered. He was
in full possession Of all his faculties,
but on being tested in the matter OF
reading and writing. he was found to
have entirely forgotten the meaning
OF the alphabet and numerals. One Of
the doctors undertook to re-teach him
ail the forgotten lore. and after a not
very considerable time and much in
dustry, Blomqu!st is again able to
read and write. He has now left the
nursing home, where he has been
under the care OF the doctors, and re-
turned to work on his farm. He is
robust in health and shows no trace
physically or mentally Of the ex-
traordinary experience he has had.

SUBJECT KING VISITS PARIS
Bey OF Tunis, Conquered by France,
Said to Be an Enlightened and
Educated Man.

An interesting guest Of the French
nation during the festivities on the
national holiday was Sidi Mohammed
en- Naceur. the Bey Of Tunis. who
then returned the visit made to Tunis
last year by President Fallieres.
When France. after short cam
paign. took possession in 1881 Of
Tunis, the present Bey succeeded his
cousin, Sidi Mohammed ell Hadi. But
the French did not follow in this col
ony their policy of~Algeria; they left
the Bey the empty honor of royalty.
AS matter of fact. as the head Of
the royal family and the local head
of the church. his power Is great, al
though outwardly he is subject OF
the French conQuerors.
He has accepted the role Of vassal
sovereign and Tunis is almost as
peaceable as any French province,
largely due to his influence. He is an
accomplished scholar, has written
books IN French and encourages the
education of his countrymen.
Possibly he realizes that il he took
a different course he might not long
be able to enjoy the pe.ace that is one
OF the show sights or the suburbs Of
Tunis.

disability, he slowly came into his

seems almost grotesque that staid,
conservative Oxford-so jealous Of her
learning. so hearty in her abhorrcnce
OF 1.-The Philistines"-should have con-
ferred on this man her degree Of Doc
tor OF Civil Law; but Oxford did it.
and Booth deserved it. For into the
very heart of Oxford and of all of de-
cent English Booth had driven his own
conviction that the most venerable Of
human laws are but dead letter un-
less and until they are suffused and
applied by the Higher Law Of Love.

Tea is native to Japan, China and

1t is found in a wild state. The
plant has been carried to many coun-
tries and grows with almost as much
vigor as in it's native lands.
Tea was first introduced in Europe
by the Dutch in 1866. The leaves Of
the coffee plant have long been used
as a substitute for tea by the lower

GERMANY LAST OF EMPIRES?
Kaiser Wilhelm, With Prophetic Eye,
Foresees the Inevitable Coming OF
Triumphant Republics.

my son will be the last of the EN-.
perors," Kaiser Wilhelm Is said to
have told the historian, Karl Won
Kroon, recently. "All the world will
be republican within so years. Ger.
many will be the last Of the empires.
1t is inevitable"
The kaiser Is credited with being a
far-sighted politician as well as an
able upholder of his prerogative as
sovereign. He sees the drift OF the
times as other crowned heads see it.
Monarchy is passing. even In England.
1t has passed in France and Portugal;
it has become merely nominal in other
European countries. Even China has
become a republic. Germany is con-
servative on the subject, no doubt be-
cause 1t has had excellent rulers.
From an American point of view 1t
seems likely that the last nation to
change, as the kaiser prophesles-to
be even later than Russia.
Monarchism, like feudalism, has had
a proper place in the evolutioD c5f CIV
ilization, but, like feudalism, it must
go. There have been a few real kings
and queens whose work for the world
has been great, and the ideal of king
ship, as Carlyle paints 1t. inspires
high sentiments and noble deeds. But
this Is an age in which kings and
queens have little to do and in which
education is SO widely diffused as to
make the real leaders recognizable as
the need of them arises. The world
progresses politically as it progresses
materially, Intellectually and morally.
