SHORT ITEMS.

The eight moths old daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. II. W. Jackson of Amigo,
passed away on Tuesday morning of
last week. The remains were brought
to the home of V. G. Ringle Thurs
day afternoon and where the funeral
was held The body was laid to rest
in Pine Grove cemetery. Mrs. Jack
son was formerly known as Miss An
toinette Ringle Of this city and was
united in marriage to Mr.. Jackson
who was former superintendent of
this city's water department.
The game of base ball between the
Eagles and the Elks last Sunday at
Yawkey park was one of the most
interesting games seen on the local
diamond this season, partly because
of the teams being made up of Wau-
sau residents and partly because of
the great pitchers battle between
Leistikow for the Elks and Gaedtke
for the Eagles, the former striking
out twenty Elk batters and the latter
succeeding in putting thirteen Eagles
on the bench via the strike route.
The hitting of both teams was rather
weak or the pitching of the pitchers
was exceptionally good, one way or
the other but we think the latter
preferable. The Eagles got the big
end of the hits with four while GaedU-
Ike only let Borowitz' men have three
singles and the game ended with the
score: Eagles, 3: Elks, 0.

TIME TO THINK OF RABIES
This Season as Bad, If Not Worse,
Than During the Hot Days of July
and August.

A few cases OF rabies have been
reported in various parts of the coun-
try, and 1t may be well to recall that
this is the season of the year when
the disease is most likely to occur
and has been most often seen. Chill
dren should be carefully kept from
contact with stray dogs at this time,
and pet animals guarded in the same
way. The carrier of the disease is
practically always a strange animal
that has wandered from distance
There is no need for alarm, how
ever, for but few cases of the disease
occur and there is comparatively lit
tie danger. If our smaller towns par
ticularly could get rid of the owner
less animals which are not properly
cared for there would be very little
risk from the action.
The occurrences of cases now may
serve as a reminder, however, that
IN spite of the term dog days"-ap-
piled to July and early August, and
often taken to mean that dogs are
than any other-rabies occur least fire.
quently during these two months. If
this is borne in mind a number of ami
mails suffering from thirst will be
saved from falling under suspicion of
having rabies In the hot weather and
from being treated so as to increase
their suffering-New York Herald.

Bitter Remark From His Young
Mistress.

Dolly was not quite six when her
mother bought flock of nine Ply
mouth Rock hens and rooster, and
diligently explained to Dolly that the
rooster was the papa hen" and the
rest we're all mamma hens" After
two or three days of confinement, to
accustom them to their coop, they
were let out to wander about the
yard, and Dolly was set TO watch
them. The hens stayed together nice
", but the rooster showed tendency
to wander into the next-door neigh
boris chicken yard. Dolly chased him
back time and again, until she was
tired and out of patience. She turned
her back for minute. and when she
looked round there we're the hens up
by the coop, while the rooster was Sc
dately pacing across the garden to-
wards the next yard.
Dolly stamped her foot on the side
walk and screamed: "Come back
here, Come back to your own fam
ily." The rooster proceeded with per
feet eduanimity. Dolly watched him
for q moment with look OF utter dis
gust. Then her mother heard her say,
very emphatically:

"AUT0 LEG" LATEST MALADY
Due to Over-Fondness for Motoring
and Too Great Devotion to That
Form of Pleasure.

"Auto-leg" Is new, 1913 model, dis
sease. Women, according to medical
authority, are more subject to it than
men, as the sterner sex take more Wig
orous exercise.
"Auto-leg," we are told, 'is a cramp
due to sitting In one position for hours,
while the veins and muscles are I'M
der strain from consecutive shocks
and joltings over the roads"
There is, however, quite formida-
BILE array of troubles which have been
charged against motoring, and which
is somewhat strenuous one for wom-
en-.
Those ailments are due almost en-
tirely, however, to speeding and to
fear of accidents
The auto eye, for instance, is a
spasm of the ciliary muscles which
govern accommodations for distances.
TO this those who have errors Of re-
fraction are especially prone. Speed
ing over an unknown country through
devious ways the sight is constantly
attracted to objects now near and now
in the distance, and thus an abnormal
strain is placed upon the visual me-
chanism
Women are warned not to take their
motoring too seriously, and when they
observe distressing symptoms to see
their physicians.

No work under heaven is more i'm
innocent girls; no crime is more das-
tardly than the sale of their youth and
innocence: no charity is greater than
that which lifts the sinner from her
sin. But the fact that we habitually
apply the term white slave" to the
entrapped child, shows that a power
full and popular sentiment is absolved
from the shackles of accuracy. Also
that this absolution confuses the
minds of men, The sentimentalisu
pities the prostitute as a victim, the
The sentimentalist conceives that men
prey, and women are preyed upon;
the sociologist, aware that evil men
and women prey upon one another
ceaselessly and ravenously, has no
measure of tenderness for either. The
sentimentalist clings tenaciously to
the association of youth with inno-
cence. The sociologist knows that
even the age-limit which the law fixes
as a boundary line of innocence has
no corresponding restriction in fact.
It is inconceivable that so many books
and pamphlets dealing with this sub

TIME GIVEN LANGUAGE STUDY
English and French Is Thoroughly
Taught In the Lower Public
Schools Of Germany.

The Germans are famous for their
thorough mastery of languages. The
university graduates are expected to
converse in Latin and to read Greek
authors at sight. Even the pupils
whose education has been confined to
the public schools can generally use
French and English in common con-
versation without difficulty. The Sc
cret of this mastery, which is SO I'M
usual in this country, is the thorough
ness of the study required
An American delegate to an educa-
tional conference abroad last summer
found a class of girls nine years old
busy with two French verbs, and us
ing them in all varieties of form in
translating from German into French.
In class ten years old they were
using all the regular verbs and the
common parts of speech in the same
way, analyzing, constructing and Civ
ing the rules in French.
At eleven years they were using the
irregular verbs, memorizing French
poems, writing compositions in
French, and all the conversation of
the classroom was in French. From
, this they pass to the higher French
literature, thinking and talking wholly
in French. A similar course is pur-
sued in English.

Wilson s Altitude.

President Wilson's message to con-
gress on the Mexican situation was a
strong presentation of a sound policy
and of conditions as reported through
reliable sources from that country. 1t
was an assurance of the friendly in
terest of the United States in its zeal
BUSINESS to treat the situation with
justice and indicative of the thorough
understanding and comprehension of
the problems involved. 1t should in
spire confidence both at home and
abroad.
The administration has pursued a
leYel-headed policy throughout the
Mexican situation. A consideration of
demands proposed to the Huerta gov
eminent. with conditions in Mexico
comprehended cannot be regarded as
unjust or needless.
Throughout the controversy there
has been noticeable lack of jingoism
in the United States. Here and there
armed interference has been suggest
ed, but the conclusion is widespread
that unless American rights are out
ragged the hands-off policy, adhered to
by the administration, was the best
for Mexico as we'll as for America, at
least at this period of the political
turmoil.
In arriving upon conclusions and in
all diplomatic intercourse the presi-
dent and the state department have
noticeably pursued a policy of the
most thoughtful consideration and
care Both Mr. Wilson and Mr.. Bayan
need much to divert them from their
pacificatory attitude. Months of
suspense in regard to Mexico during
which the administration has been
more then busy with its large program
of affairs at home have seen the Situa-
tion to the south most carefully in
yeStigated and indicate that the
present regime is fully equal to the
crisis.
In answering the proposals
through Mr.. Lind the Huerta
government is arguing beside the
question 1t has for its fund
amental hypothesis that it is in
power through means which should
be recognized and which tend toward
governmental stability. The admins
tration refuses to grant that the
Huerta governments in power legal
ly. Huerta is in power, but not
through popular expression of the
citizens of Mexico.
The inertia which has characterized
the past few months is indicative that
all Mexico wants speedy adjustment
of affairs. There is not the desire for
constant warfare and government
opposition. Peace is desired. Both
the theory and practice of govern
ment, with the situation at hand
analysed as completely as is possible
point to the efficacy of the popular
election, which should be conducted
