London, January 27.--The special
committee appointed BY the Balkan
plenipotentiaries drafted note to-
day notifying tho Turkish plenipOten-
tiaries that they propose TO break of
the peace negotiations The note was
not submitted TO the Balkan delcga-
iions. which held no meeting to-day.
Instead, the delegates gave luncheon
in celebration OF the saint day OF Saba
the patron Of the Orthodox Church.
Tho note as drafted is very brief. II
reminds the Turks that since January
sittings Of the peace conference have
been suspended. without Turkey max
iug any move toward their resuTn ptiOn.
while events in Constantinople are the
best proof that Turkeys answer To the
demands Of the allies concerning Adria-
nople and the Aegean islands will be
negative.
on this account. unless the Turkish
delegation has fresh proposals 20 make.
the note points out. the allies see no
alternative but definitely 70 break Of
negotiations
The Servian ex-Prenier. NJ Novako-
witch. will give luncheon Tuesday in
honor OF the other delegations. after
which q meeting viii be held for the
purpose Of examining the note. Thus
another day will be gained before facing
the question Of reopening the war.

Of the allies. which. he declared. was

IF the allies had played noble

INTERESTING TRICK TO PLAY
Board Projecting Over Table and Gov
cred With Newspaper Cannot Be
Knocked TO Floor.

Take an ordinary board. two or
three feet long, such as a bread board
and place It on the table so that about
one-third Of its length will project
over the edge. Unfold newspaper
and lay II on the table over the board
says the Popular Mechanics. Any
one not familiar with the expert
ment would suppose the board could
be knocked on by hitting It on the
outer end. It would appear to be easy
to do. but try 1t. Unless you are pre-
pared to break the board you proDa'
bly, will not be able to knock the board
OF.
The reason is that when the board
Is struck It forces the other end up and
the newspaper along with It This
causes q momentary vacuum to be
formed under the paper, and the pres
sure Of the air above. which Is about
fifteen pounds to the square inch, pre-
vents the board from coming up. This
10 an entertaining trick to play at an
evening party, and also makes SIM
pie and interesting experiment.

WHAT MAKES A GOOD TALKER
Doctor johnson Says, Among Other
Things, There Must Be Presence
OF Mind and Resolution.

A man may have the gift Of CAB
without being a good talker, the Lon

was Macaulay, who had no restful
spaces Of silence.
Il WISH" said Sydney Smith. who
could listen as we'll as talk. Il wish
that Macaulay would see the differ
ence between colloquy and soliloQuy."
And on another occasion: oh,
yes. We both talk a good deal; but
don't believe Macaulay ever did hear
my voice. Sometimes when | have
told a good story l have thought to
myself: Poor Macaulay! He will
be very sorry some day to have
missed hearing that!'" The differ
ence between the two men was that
between the clever talker and the bril-.
liant bore.
But the elements Of success in con-
versation will be variously defined.
Doctor Johnson, who must take rank
with the foremost Of the worlds great
takers, had his own theories on the
subject.
There must in the first place be
knowledge" he said; there must be
materials; in the second place there
must be command of words; in the
third place, there must be imagina-
ton. to place things as they are NOT
commonly seen; and in the fourth
place there must be presence Of mind
and a resolution that It is not to be
overcome by failures; this last IL eS

Now Enjoying.

Young girls are finding the mannish
shirts made Of striRed or plain wash
able silk or crepe de chine very much
to their lining. Most Of the models
are absolutely masculine in the Sc
verify o; their lines. This, however.
appeals to the girl who likes to ex-
plot the latest fad OF fashion. Those
who dislike the plainness add jabot
OF lace or a bow at the neck line, but
the majority prefer to wear the blouse
as It is, with q simple fastening OF
buttons down the front.
The buttons are Of crystal. white or
colored to match the blouse and
stitched with heavy white silk.
A cape collar finishes the neck and
is most becoming to girls. It exposes
the throat in front and is comfortable.
It differs from the polo collar. mas
much as very little Of It shows from
the front. At the back there Ii am

Slate gray, blue, pink, velvet and
stripes arc equally favored for fash

worn with cape collar Is knotted
and has loosely hanging ends. II
may be of velvet, striped silk or dot

| BLAME PLACED ON PHYSICIANS
Growth Of Drug Habit In United etatsp
Alleged to Be Due to oplnteo
Ordered In Prescriptions.

That 90 per cent. of all the cocaine
and morphine manufactured In this
country is used by persons who have
formed the drug habit through physi-
clans prescriptions is the. startling
statement made by DR.. L. F. Kebler.
Chief Of the Division OF Drugs, Depart
ment Of Agriculture. This statement,
and others, proving that physicians
and not patent" medicines are TO
sponsible for the appalling growth OF
drug addiction in the United States
was made by DR.. Kebler In an address
at Washington, before the American
Society for the Study Of Alcohol and
Narcotics.
DR.. Kebler is quoted by Washington
papers as having declared that drug
using had increased 100 per cent. in
the last 40 years, and that American
medical men vera not discriminating
enough in their use of opiates. Their
overindulgence to their patients, he
said, is creating thousands Of drug
users every year.
1T is very sad thing to say that
our physicians are doing the greatest
work in promoting the use Of cocaine
and morphine" said the doctor. State
laws are not saving the public from
the grip Of the drug habit, and the
American public is sinking tighter
and tighter into the black abyss Of
the morphine and cocaine fiend.
1.-THE worst Of 1t is that the impor-
tation Of opium into the country n
becoming larger and larger year by
year. have heard 1t said on reliable
authority that 80 per cent. of the CO.
caine and morphine manufactured In
this country is used by persons who
have formed the habit through doc
tors prescriptions"
Almost simultaneously with DR.. Keb-
ler's address, DR.. ]. A. Patterson, at
Grand Rapids, Michigan, in a public
statement said that 10 out of every 20
patients who come to an institution
with which he is connected for treat
ment for the drug habit owe their
downfall to physicians prescriptions.
