tion seized the goat undid it's bell tied it round
his own neck and commenced to push his way
on all tours through the bushes, tnkling the bell
and rustling among them as he went. Nearer
and nearer the gendarmes he came, but he just
went boldly on In the dark acting the goat" to
such good purpose that the unsuspecting SEN
tinels merely thought that old goat was eating
its way along among the bushes In the erratlc
way goats have. So Bellacoscia passed right
through the guarding gendarmes and clean away.
When morning dawned the certain capture was
not effected and Bellacoscia free to give
more trouble in the future. Another time ne
was flying from capture, the gendarmes close on
his heels when he found the way blocked by
river in food and escape seemed Impossible
Every minute his pursuers were gaining lie
could not cross, and 70 go back meant certain
capture Again his wits saved him. He scram-
bled down to the marshy banks of the river where
there were some dark, reedy pools cut hollow
reed nut one end in his mouth and sank himself
down into the Shiny black water till he was
completely covered with only the broken end
of the reed projecting into the air, and through
this he breathed In comfort. The gendarmes
came rushing down to the river, where mo-
ment before they had seen the fugitive, but now,
when they reached the place, Belacoscia was
gone-clean vanished as If he had been spirited
away and they went back to report that the
devil had certainly got him for he had undoubt-
edly been there, he had never gone away, and ne
certainly was not there now!"
Towards evening we reached Evisa, a happy
little village rejoicing in a grand position. and
we'll worth visit II 1t were only to see the
view looking down the gorge to the Gulf of Porto,
that alone would be worth the Journey. Just be-
fore the forest OF Atone commences one should
leave the road and scramble across field to a
projecting mass OF rocks, for there can be seen
a sight that must equal many Of the finest pros
poets in the world for majestic beauty. An I'M
mense gorge enclosed by magnifcently shaped
mountains extends below, crowned at the end by
that king of them all, Cappo dOrto, and away
beyond lies the blue sea, all hazy and soft In the
distance While standing on the rocky projection
overlooking this impressive scene, sense OF
uttleness comes over the beholder, and one ceels
almost like an intruder in this solitary spot,
Where silent Nature reigns alone
Majestic on her craggy throne.

WHY THE GERMANS LEAD.
Influence Exerted by the Continuation School,
In the Fatherland.

An American manufacturer who had wondered
at the success of his German competitors was
struck by certain big, flaming, ofhcialooklng
posters on the bboards and around public build
ings in Berlin. He might have seen similar
posters in every city and town In Germany
Twice year these official posters summon the
youth of the land to obligatory attendance at the
trade and commercial schools, Hubert Evans
writes in Harper's Weekly. Indirectly they tell
why the American or the English manufacturer
finds in the German such dangerous competitor
They reveal the secret of Germany's wonderful
commercial and industrial prosperity and OF her
commanding position as a world power. To the
phiosophicay inclined they suggest interesting
dreamers into nation Of materialists and doers
There is scarcely anything in all Germany 30
new and modern as the continuation schools
This whole movement has been matter OF only
a few years and in its present form the continual
ton school is a child of yesterday. These insti-
tutions receive from the nation more care and
solicitude than is bestowed upon the children OF
the imperial family. They still In rapid
process of change and development. Their very
success has encouraged further changes and
more stringent legislation in their behalf. 1t is
only few years ago that imperial industrial
law was passed giving community authority to
establish and maintain obligatory continuation
schools for youths thus making good the failure
of certain German state governments to provide
for such school by state law. One OF the last
acts of the reichstag last December was to amend
this law so as to make It apply to all girls en-

vIENNA'S WAY WITH WOMEN

has just got back from spending part
of his honeymoon in the Austrian cap

Times. my own experience was EN-

II was told that 1t was considered
good form for man to offer to buy
drink for any woman he met on the
street unescorted. If she repealed his
advances he apologized and walked
away, and both were supposed to for
get the incident.
THE wife of the Georgian was out
alone one day when an officer, with a
smile bowed to her and invited her
into near by cafe. She was indig-
nant and ordered him away He bow

Later in the day the woman was
out walking with her husband. She
had told him about the incident Of the
morning and he was feeling like al

wife?' he demanded. with other words
which some might consider approprl-

hauled off and knocked the officer

when the Georgian and his wife
reached their hotel at dinner time two
officers were there with orders that
the trunks Of the Americans should
be packed and that they be escorted
to the next train leaving for another
country. The Georgian protested, but
the others insisted, and they escorted
him and his wife to the train and
saw that they left on 1t.

of this sort usually have several dark

Although the house here shown is
not large, being % feet wide and 4S
feet, inches long, it gives the OBJ
server the impression of largeness.
1t is an excellent type of residence
for city in which the lots average
so feet, a size that will admit Of
room for lawn and plenty of space
for light and air. A house thus set
out amid pleasant surroundings will
have all the good points Of its de-
sign fully appreciated and displayed
to the best advantage.
The tendency in the city Is toward
crowding, on account of the increas-
ing value of land, of course. This is
to be regretted because when lots
are too narrow houses cannot be
shown to good advantage no matter
what the excellence and artistic quail
tiles of their design may be.
Fifty foot lots are large enough to
meet most builders requirements,
but in many cities, as in Chicago, for
instance, the rule is 35 feet This
disadvantage is often made greater by
the owners inslstence on very large
house, or by an arrangement of the
rooms that requires that the building
be wide.
Too often the residence is suited to
the builders demands rather than to
