whv Iana Are Understood.

Every one is eager to add to his
fund OF information concerning the
Japanese and there are not many lay
men who can tell why the Japs are
understood. Japanese surgeons have
made measurements Of their army,
which show that the smallness OF the
stature is due entirely to the almost
dwarfed condition of the legs. This
is no doubt due to the fact that from
childhood the Japanese practices an
unnatural way of sitting upon the legs.
When a Japanese child is old enough
to sit upon the floor his legs are bent
under him. This in time dwarfs the
growth OF the limbs, Actual deform-
ity is less common among the peas
ants than among students, merchants
and others of sedentary habits. There
is no doubt the coming Japanese, who
are rapidly acquiring Occidental GUS
toms, will change this habit of sitting
upon the feet.

.METEoRITE MISSED 2 BOYS

Boston.-A meteorite dropped into

feet Of them. Both we're thrown
down and overcome by fumes from
the white hot mass. The eyebrows
of one we're nearly singed OF. The

The young men are John Mcdonald

Butler is q member Of the senior class
of the Maiden high school In sup
port OF their statement the two point
to the Jagged mass in the hole in the

Both complained OF violent attack
of nausea. This they thought was
caused by inhaling the fumes Of the

struck the earth and thought 1t was

TAME OWN SAVAGES
Madrid Paper Urges That Spain
Care for Its Own.
HeraIdo Declares IlIiteraey In Alton.
SOS Kingdom Amounts to Nation.
al Dissraee-12,ooo,ooo People
Cannot Read or Write.

Madrid.-ln an article headed
SPANS National Disgrace" the Her
aldo de Madrid (newspaper) says:
out OF the total population OF some
100000 that Spain possesses. H.
100000 can neither read nor write. In
thousands OF villages and small
towns in the interior OF the country
no one knows how to read or write.
There are in Spain 10000 rural
villages without schools OF any Kind
and many thousands which can only
be reached by a bride path, there
being no high roads nor railway COM
munication OF any kind. Attendance
at board schools Is voluntary, not
obligatory. Seventy.six per cent, OF
the children in Spain are illiterate'
and this is especially noticeable IN
the capital.
With such facts, such shameful
ones. before US as the foregoing We
have embarked on q mission (whlcn
is costing the country millions) to
civilize Morocco. II II were not SAD
1t would be laughable. Let us hrst
set ourselves to educate and tame
the innumerable savages we have
among us before attempting to civil
ize Morocco.
And this is Spain in the twentieth
century! Would that heaven would
send us a minister with the tempera-
ment and energy of Lloyd-George!
Will those in power in Spain never
awake to the real needs OF the coun'
try?"
In this connection 1t is interesting
to note that the first battalion OF the
Kings Own regiment has recently
gone to join the army in Morocco,
and that among the officers accom-
panying 1t was H. r. II. the Infant
Don Alfonso de Bourbon, the lnfanta
Eulalia's son and the kings cousin.
The little prince Of the Austrias, heir
presumptive to the Spanish throne
is honorary colonel of the regiment.
He addressed the following telegram
to the captain commanding the bat
talon:
Greatly regretting that my tender
years do not allow me to place my.
self at the head Of my regiment,
which is about to take the field in
Morocco, | salute my comrades and
brother officers, not forgetting the
rank and file, wishing them all good
fortune and occasions to add new
laurels to their famous regiment"

and Prince Albert we're sounded on
the subject. Had any woman OF royal
rank been willing to share his throne
1t is certain that he would have mar
ried her at once. But none desired to
marry this parvenu among royalty; he
did not really belong.
All the while he was growing more
and more in love with Mdlle. de Mon
tito, passing hours in her company
and leading her mother to believe that
her daughter might soon become an
empress. His other matrimonial
schemes came to nothing. He felt
that he had been snubbed and more or
less Inundated, yet even then he said
nothing about marriage to the lovely
Eugene. 1t is said that he offered
her q left handed alliance. She was
not to be acknowledged as his wife.
but she was to be magnihcently pro-
vided for and was to share his heart
II not his throne But Eugene indig-
nantly refused this Offer She turned
and left him and for while declined
to receive him, because he had insult
ed her.
This was the sort Of treatment to
make Napoleon yield. He brooded
over her beauty and his love for her
became almost frantic. He asked Eu-
genie to his residence at Compeigne
and in the romantic woods of the
chateau offered her his throne. They
were married with great pomp in the
Cathedral of Notre Dame.

THERE ARE TIL r E E
GOOD REASONS why
you should have your car
overhauled now and worn
parts replaced.
FIRST: The garage man
can give you better service
and you can spare the
car better now than later.
No matter whether you are
going to keep the Car, or
sell or trade it in on a new
one-it will pay you well
to have it thoroughly over
hauled, worn parts replaced
by new ones and body re-
painted.
SECOND: We are able to
furnish replacement parts
for all models of above
makes of cars within 48
hours from receipt of or
der. Have concentrated
this branch of the business
at Newcastle, Ind. (center
of population of the U. 81
Here we have a $1,750,000
investment in plant and
stock. $4,000 separate bins
of parts.
THIRD: And perhaps the
best reason why you should
secure your requirements
now-we must increase
prices 20% January lst,
when the new parts price
lists will be off the presses.
NOW NOTE THIS-Never
before in the history of this
industry has a new con-
Germ, having bought the
plants and assets of a bank
rupt one, taken upon itself
the obligation of furnishing
replacement parts for the
cars it never made.
