AUTOMOBILE RECIPROCITY.

1t is a good idea to look into the automobile
regulations of this jurisdiction with view to estab-
fishing peace and amity with our neighbors. An auto
mobile in Washington is pretty certain to be an inter-
state affair." because the District is so small that
hghpowered at full speed is liable to get out OF
bounds before it can be stopped Then if it happens
to have slipped over into hostile territory the driver
gets mulcted
This city is credited by the census with having
more autos than any other, in proportion to popula-
ton. Our people have more to gain than anybody
else by maintaining friendly relations with neghbors
and avoiding oppressive licenses, conditions, etc.,
upon cars from other Jurisdictions Reciprocity is
precisely the thing that Washington needs in this
regard.

ADIFFICULT DIFFERENTIATION.

To the Editor of The Times: Will you please inform
me what is the difference between the Mauna Loa and
the Mona Lisa?" SUBSCRIBER.
1t is always pleasure to accommodate SUBJ
scribers with exact and authenticated facts on any
possible subject, but in this case compliance is more
difficult than commonly. We suspect that the sim-
larity of names has suggested to Subscriber more
marked likeness between the subjects of her inquiry
than would be apparent if they we're actually viewed
The possibility that both names apply to the same
object is undoubtedly erroneous. To define the DIFF
ferences requires nice discrimination.
Prior to the Mona Lisa eruption in France cou-
pie of years ago, sharp differentiation might have
been possible because till that time it supposed
that only the Mauna Loa produced eruptons. Now it
is known that both do; those of the Mona Lisa being,
however, of a violent spasmodc, Gallo sort, while
those of the Mauna Loa are cosmc, orderly and
conventional.
Our impression is that by weight the Mauna Loa
is rather larger than the Mona Lisa Also, somebody
once stole the Mona Lisa and ugged it off and hid it.
There is no record of such a mishap Detailing the
Mauna Loa, and the data at hand seem to warrant
the belief that it will not happen.
Both the Mauna Loa and the Mona Lisa are
credited with the poentialty of intense ardor. Either
might be expected to produce effervescent outpour-
inps indicative of keen temperamental enthusiasm
Indeed, it seems difficult to generaze the differ
ent attributes of the two great works. Perhaps the
most effective summarization will be given in the
statement that the Mauna Loa is one of the most
tive volcanoes in the world and the Mona Lisa the pic
ture of strikipgly beautiful woman.

two weeks to a day from the time her
husband was taken and almost the same
suddenness. Although missing her hus-
band more and more as the years went
by and longing for his companionship,
she tried bravely to be cheerful and not
shadow the lives of those around her.
A devoted wife, mother and grand

Death of Ellen A. Bisnett.

Passed to the higher life, at Onset,
Mass, July 7, Ellen A. Bisnett, widow of
the late Louis A. Bisnett. Mrs. Bisnett
was born in East Montpelier, Dec. %,

March ], 1868, living after that many
years in Montpelier, later going to Brat
tleboro for a period of five years, NOV
ing from there to South birmingham,
Mass, where her husband died very sud-
denly, going from the house in apparent
health to be brought back lfeless the
2ist day of July, 1910. After his death
she made her home with her daughter
in Boston.
She had not been in good health dur
ing this spring, although nothing more
serious than rundown condition was
apprehended and the family had planned
to spend the summer at Onset, thinking
to renew her strength Fsr six days
she enjoyed the beauties of the place,

A Kaiser story.-The following an
ecdote Of the kaiser Is taken from Ex-
celsior, where 1t is stated to be vouch-
ed for by member of the German
Yacht club. The Hohenzollern was en-
tering a Norwegian harbor some time
ago. The kaiser became very impa-
tient with the slow progress made, and
himself sounded the telegraph to quick
en- up the speed. Immediately, to the
kaiser's great amazement, the pilot, q
gray headed Norwegian named Moro
huns, rushed to the speaking-tube and
shouted to the engineers: SLOW. slow.
Pay no attention to the telegraph"
The kaiser's anger was great at the af-
front. pilot, consider your
self under arrest" IT shall not leave
this place." replied the pilot without
turning a hair. Il am in command OF
the ship, and no one-not even an en-
peror-shall give me orders" The enc
of the story is inevitable. "The OH
GERS present looked at each other In
silence" 1t continues, knowing that all
the rules of the sea were on the pilots
side; but they were amazed to see MS
majesty leave the bridge and allow the
pilot to take the yacht through the
straights without interference" The
finale reads like any fairy story. The
next day the kaiser's bad humor had
entirely disappeared, and he bestowed
a decoration on the old pilot, at the
same time appointing him his official
pilot in Norwegian waters.-Westmins-
ter Gazette.

Tobacco and Brains.-That over 90
per cent of all boys who fail in the
grammar and high schools are smokers
is asserted by Prof. M. v. O'Shea Of
the University of Wisconsin, as quoted
in the university's Press Bulletin
madison, December 16.) The tobacco
evil, he declares, is the most serious
one that the public schools have to
contend with. We read:
Most boys do not learn to smoke be-
cause they like tobacco, but because
their school fellows smoke. 1t is a So
cial thing with a boy. BY doing 1t he
thinks he Is one of the crowd and
not an outsider Unruly boys are al
most always addicted to the cigarette
habit. Smoking robs pupils Of their
docility. Records kept of the work Of
students who were not addicted to the
smoking habit when they entered the
high school but who acquired 1t later,
show that not only did these pupils be-
come harder to manage, but the quail :
ty Of their school work also declined
greatly. What hold the smoking evil
has gained on public school boys is in
dicated by the statements made by q
number Of high school principals who
declare that from so to 80 per cent Of
high school pupils are now using Gig
arettes. 1t Is an interesting fact that
the strongest sentiment against smok-
ing has arisen in communities In which
the raising Of tobacco Is the principal
industry. Tobacco men do not want
young boys in their own community to
smoke, and in a number Of places In
Wisconsin, various organizations have
taken a stand against smoking by
school ildren."-Lterary Digest.
