Poetic Jurtrea In Erane.

The following is case of poetic
Justice as melted out in France:
A well-known Partisan architect
was sitting In his office when he heard
q knock at the door. Az he wished to
be alone, he took no notice OF the
knock but went on with his work. A
Few minutes later he heard a key
moving in the lock. Not doubling that
his visitor was burglar, the archi.
tect armed himself with revolver
and quietly hid behind some curtains
Presently the thief entered and pro.
eeeded to rife the place. Then sud-
denly he started and grew pale. In
mirror he had seen a revolver lev.
eled at his head from behind the cur
tains.

chitect, and shout 'Polioe!'"
The burglar had no alternative but
to obey, and 80 summoned the officsr

RADIUM DISCOVERED IN IDAHO

Radium, that rarest of rare

springs are the property of the
State of Idaho AMI extensive ex

ment that it contains radium,
Their report. which has just been

The condition of the republican

farmers story Of his fool" dog.
The farmer had fool dog that was
continually running jack rabbits
and he had beaten il many times in
an effort to cure it, hut could not.
One day the farmer was out in
the field cutting hay with scythe
and becoming tired stuck the
scythe into the ground, blade out
ward, and went over and lay down
in the shaue to rest. By and by
the 'fool dog" jumped jack
rabbit way up in the field and away
they started in the direction of the
old farmer. The rabbit dodged
the scythe, but the dog hit it
squarely with his nose and split
in two lengthwise. The pieces
fell apart, quivering and the old
FARMER rushed up and slapped
them together. put some mud on
the dog and bound it up with
bandages. Eo and behold the dog
lived. The farmer removed the
bandages and to his utter horror
he had put the dog wrong end to.

A friend asked him what kind of
dog it was then. The farmer said:
''Why the darn fool thing hasn't
half as much sense as it had before.

ful and numerous this year that tie
woman ON the lookout for Christmas
suggestions has not far to go for ideas
For the girl friend nothing will make
such an appeal this year as a dainty
apron, for Dame Fashion has set her
seal of approval upon aprons. An un-
usually dainty design noted recently
was of white barred muslin IN the
regulation tea apron size, the lower
edge cut in graduated scallops, the
broadest and roundest scallop at the
center, the two each side of this one
sloping off so as to make the sides
shorter than the center front. Each
scallop was decorated with an oval of
punch work surrounded with eyelets
and each oval motif suspended from q
simple vine of solid work running
along their top edges and trailing
gracefully up the sides of the apron
several inches The entire edge W.:
embroidered In scallop effect, and the
strings, also scalloped at the ends. had
a spray of the vine and a suggestion of
the eyelets.
The party bag seen in the illustra
ton is an unusually dainty present. 1t
resembles a flower in construction. In
fact, it looks exactly like just open
ed flower at the top. and at the bottom
the bag has a similar decoration sug
gestive of the calyX.
Above the bag is new style of rib

When Buyinq Furs.

The woman who must economize
buys her furs very carefully. She sees
to 1t that the skin is soft and pliable
which means properly dressed, and
that the fur is the kind coming in and
not just going out. Most furs last
three years in favor, and at present
the brown furs are coming in" Fox,
skunk, brown marten, mink, bear and
wolf are very fashionable, and there is
4 special craze for the brilliant red fox
which Poiret has raised to high favor
This pelt is rather conspicuous, and a
woman who can spend little, but must
dress well, selects more quiet variety
OF fur. Opossum is an attractive pelt
that is also very durable. The set of
opossum furs of the season shows
q smart toque with an embroidered ori-
entail ornament as well as fiat muff
and big neckpiece made of two ami

prcssive
The queen is glad this year for an
other reason to get them away, as
her only son, Prince Humbert, is an
extraordinary studious child and at
seven can scarcely be torn away from
his books. When other children Of
his age would be playing and making
as much noise as possible, if over
looked, he will be founG with a book
in his hand quiet as a little mouse
On any and all occasions he has to
be forced into the open air, and even
there he will lie on the grass under
tree and read if allowed to do so.
The other day the minister of Costa
Rica was received by the queen, and
knowing how fond he is of children,
they were called into the room to see
him. Humbert at once bounced up
to him and dragged him to the win
dow, saying, 81 wonder whose auto

The crown prince is extraordinarily
interested in his fathers collection Of
coins and knows them almost by

so that he may hunt 70 IA coin which
his father does not possess. One day
he really picked up two or three at
Ostia, his JOY being intense. All the
way home in the automobile he held
them tight in his hand, but, alas,
they proved to be of little value. One
of his favorite games is eXcavating,
the garden at the Quirinal being full
of holes in which he pretends to find
untold treasures. The game is en-
couraged, as it takes him away from
his books.
He can read in three languages, TIA

AFFAIRS IN GERMANY.
BERLIN, June THE discussion
in the reichstag of the colonial bud
get brought out interesting remarks
about excessive drinking in the colo
MES as well as about household sla.
very in German East Africa. From
the speeches Of several members it
appears that the German officials and
the few Germans in the colonies are
very heavy drinkers.
DR. Paasche, first vice president of
the reichstag, who has himself trav'
e'ed in the colonies, said Our high
officials are still compelled, as it
We're, to invest a large part Of their
income in alcohol both in Southwest
and East Africa A higher official
must drink up nearly 5000, and the
medium and lower class officials cor
responoingly. They must put the half
of their incomes into alcohol"
Herr Davidsohn, socialist mem
Der, claimed that drinking went to
far greater excuses with the whites
than with the natives, so that it was
common among the negroes to say of
one of their number when found dead
drunk that he lis as drunk as a white
man."
Southwest Africa Conditions.
Herr Noske, another socialist, said
Southwest Africa was the most drunk
en- of all the colonies; that the Ger
mans there availed themselves of
every occasion to hold great drinking
bouts. A member of one of the small
anti-Semitic parties finally offered a
resolution asking the government to
restrict as far as possible the import
of alcohol into the colonies for the
use of the natives. But upon motion
of the socialists the reference to the
natives was dropped and the resol-
ton adopted III the most general
terms Another resolution was adopt
ed asking the government to use its
influence to have the Brussels CON
gress called together again to adopt
more restrictive measures against the
sale of alcohol in Africa.
Members also favored fixing a date
for the final abolition of household
slavery among the native population
of East Africa DR.. Solf, the new
colonial secretary, however, expressed
doubt as to whether it would be feas-
ible to fix upon a specific period for
