Soldiers Mentally Affected.

Discussing the mental anguish de-
picted by the tales of suicide, mad
ness and desertion among soldiers, ito.
say nothing of mental frenzy express
ing itself in wanton murder" the Jour
nal of the American Medical associa-
ton says that as yet there have been
no scientific studies of the effect of
war on the minds Of officers and enlist
ed men. But short rations, lack Of
sleep, erotionalism, exposure, exer-
ton, inconsistencies and SO on, might
well unbalance many minds that in or
binary conditions would pass for sane
The first results of an inquiry in our
own army by DR.. e. King, under the,
surgeon generals advice, show that
one-fifth of all the discharges for dis
ease and external causes are on ac-
count of mental disease. Dementia
praecox is the most frequent form,
averaging about fifty-six per cent each
year, Of all the dismissals for mental
unsoundness.

Mark met his gaze quietly. Il have

the feet were of iron. after all"
The next day the failure OF negotia'
tons was announced. On the next
the strike was ordered.
Henley was ready. On the morn.
ing of the third day detached squads
OF strangers appeared In the vicinity
OF the mills, trying to eaunter along
with the air OF casuai ease. They were
Henley's strike breakers, gathered
from many cities.
And the strikers were ready, though
few of them wot of preparation.
The first squad slipped unnot1ced
into the mills, and a second. Then
along the mile or more Of street an
electric word passed from watching
crowd to crowd: "Henley's strike
breakers" The third squad reached
the refuge Of the mills only by a sud
den overbearing dash The fourth
found it's way blocked and itself
pressed back by a surging Cursing
mob. The remaining strike breakers
rallied to this point and in a body
tried by brute force to drive a lane
through the resisting pack of men and
women. But the mob grew faster, gath
cred around the invaders, roughly
jostling them and shrieking taunts and
blasphemies. Blows were struck, mis-
siles hurled. Then above the clamor
a hot was heard.
A cry, "A woman is killed." an

Many weapons flashed from pockets

Bait Should Be SEGREGATED.

One indianapolis man has learned
something about fishing by an expert
enc that he had at Lake Manitou-
On his arrival at the lake he began
looking around for bait, which, he
was informed, was n of the neces-
sary articles in a fisherman's outfit.
He spent ~hard-earned money for a,
supply of frogs and crickets, which
were highly recommended as being
alluring to the lake fish.
Shorty, as he is known, had a nice,
new green minnow bucket. and in
this bucket he placed the frogs and
crickets. That night he slept peace
fully, with now and then a pleasant
dream of heroic struggles with the
big fish of the lake. He vas going
fishing in the morning. He got up.
gathered his traps and calamities to-
gether and then inspected the bucket.
of bait. The crickets had disappeared,
but the frogs were still there, and
they appeared to have fattened con-
siderably during the night.
Since then Shorty has been trou-
bled with the question Of WHAT'S
the answer"

Masterpiece In Mosaic.

At Ivry, a Paris suburb, has just
died a remarkable. old man, a septua-
genarian named Fraissard. He died
in poverty, but a ne chosen he
could have become n of the most
famous European sculptors. AS it
was, he finished life as he began it
more or less penniless. When a boy
he was ~apprenticed % a marble cut
ter, and he at ono discovered his
powers In this direction. For SO
years, says the London News, he had
continued to execute the most beau
tiful works Of art, mostly. in mosaics.
M. Fraissard's masterpieces took him
nearly twenty-four years to perfect.
It is a black marble table. In the
middle is a c~hessboard, on either side
of which are playing cards arranged
in fans. On the table are dominoes
and dice, cigars and cigarettes, and
several coins in gold and silver. All
these, of course, are inlaid. The ma
trials in the table, beside the black
marble, are agate, onyx, p%orphyry,
malachite. lapis lazuli, the tones OF
which are black, red. orange, blue
and white. Ninety different kinds OF
marble also were used.

shots were heard, fired pointblank at
living targets. The melee became a
battle. When it was over, the strike
breakers had fed and two score and
more lay dead on the streets. Through
the labyrinth Of silent machinery and
chilling furnaces a mob that painted
with the thirst for blood hunted out
and shot down those of Henley's men
who had reached the mills. Mad?
Mad as though a bastile waited to be
taken.
Two days the terror lasted. The mills
sacred property!-were wrecked.
Timid posses were driven back. Crazed
orators harangued the mob and tool
for fronic text "the Siamese twins Of
production"
Then with measured tread and
cleaning bayonets came the force Of
the law, and peace-the peace of the
strong-hovered once more over Quin-
by's mills.

La Prensa Of suenos Aires.

La Prensa of Buenos Aires. which
has announced its intention of ignor-
ing all news emanating from the Ger
man embassy in Washington, is prob
ably the most s%umptuously housed
journal in the world. Apart from a
number of spacious and l~uxuriously
furnished rooms for the accommoda-
ton of the staff the Prensa Offices
comprise a well equipped library open
to the general public and a suite of
reception rooms where dances are Pc
riodically given. The journal also re-
tains the exclusive services of a high
ly efficient doctor who is at the dis
posal Of every subscriber, and whose
prescriptions are made up free of
charge on the premises. On the roof
of the offices is an ear-piercing steam
whistle which sounds whenever any
special item of news is about to be
exhibited in the windows.

NO LIFE NEED BE EMPTY
New Joys and New Life Can Always
Be Found to Take the Place
of Those Lost.

Did YOU ever walk down a street
where many pretty homes and we'll
kept gardens could be seen and come
suddenly face TO ace with an empty
house, writes Margaret Wilkinson.
Did you not find the contrast some
thing painful?
You had been passing many houses
that showed unmistakable signs of
life. There were curtains in the win
dow, perhaps a baby carriage or the
children's toys on the veranda, the
lawns we're well kept, the flower beds
were full of blossoms. Perhaps you
| could even see a dear, White-haired
old lady in a pariOr or sitting room as
you passed-or in another home you
caught a glimpse of a small boy with
a large doughnut il his hand-or a
mother talking to her baby as she
lifted it from the floor.
And then you came to the empty
house. The windows were bare and
dirty and there was no vista beyond
them but blank walls. The walls were
stained and streaked with mud that
naughty little boys had thrown. The
weeds were rank n thick in the
lawn and in tie flower beds. The house
was no longer a home of human life.
The life that was in it had gone out
and forgotten it.
Some lives are like empty houses
The humanity, the inspiration and the
soul have zone out of them. Perhaps
there has been a great disappointment
and the new tenant has not beer found
to take the place Of the old--the new
joy instead of the one that could not
be had, the new work that would have
meant success instead of the old work
that did mean failure. And SO the
eyes that the soul should shine
through are lusterless and vacan
The beauty that should abide within
and be seen from without is not here.
The stains Of sorrow and cynicism are.
not wiped away The weeds of dis
enlargement and doubt and hesitation
and fear have choked the kindly
growths that make a home garden for
the personality to dwell in.
But there is no empty house that
cannot be made into a home, if some
one will go and take into it the hui
mainly and the life. There is no life
that cannot find new work and new
Joy and become a habitation for the
soul of a msen or oma to shine
through and to fulfill.

The Rainbow Monkey.

You have all seen black monkeys
and gray monkeys and brown mon
keys, but how many of you have seen
q rainbow monkey?
The rainbow monkeys name is the
mandril and he lives in the billy parts
of Africa. He is, indeed, a weird
looking creature. His snout is a bright
scarlet, and on either side of his long
hideous face are deep grooves of pur-
pie and scarlet and blue. His eyes
are tiny and glow like ugly sparks Of
fire.
The mandrfl has funny, stubby ear
and q tail that Ii only a sawed-on
stump. His hind legs are q deep VIC
let color.
In fact. II you ever ZEE a rainbow
monkey, you probably will exclaim:
There Amt no such ANIMAL"

How Customs Chance.

If some, of the notables Of ancient
times were living now how differently
they would act!
Noah would charter an ocean liner.
Nero would step into the parlor and
turn on the monograph while Rome
burned and the heather ragged. Ben
Hur would pilot a 60 horsepower rae
ing car and spin around saucer tracks.
Jason would hire the great detective
to find the Golden Fleece, instead OF
going after 1t himself. Icarus would
mount to the sun in a Bleriot mono
plane without fear of its wings melting
OF. Napoleon would invade Russia in
q Pullman palace a r Demosthenes
would go on the Chautauqua circuit.
Cain would plead circumstantial evil
dence, self-defense and emotional in
sanity.

CHAPTER XIV.
The Pressure Of Truth.

EL# 81. -
The strike was broken. Engines
crunched and furnaces glowed again
The men, starved out, had crept back
to the mill gates, begging for work
The troops marched away and the
union, at least in Q%uinby's mills, never
raised It's head again.
But at what a cost!
Jeremiah Quinby returned-not,
however, with a blare of trumpets. In
fact, he came almost secretly, though
not wholly out Of modesty; no re.
porter so bold or SO shrewd as to win
to his well-guarded presence. The
cynical public had lately become
deeply interested in the Siamese twins
head Of their author had heaped its
cruel satire.
But Quinby's return was not with
out It's objects. One Of them was to
unseat the arrogant Henley, and to
this Quinby, without concealment or
delay, bent his energies. In the other,
which seems to prove that in matters
Of sex r neither prince, priest nor
peasant, but only man and woman,
more finesse was employed. Only one
person had an linking Of this project
and she kept we'll the secret.
There was heard a merry cracking
Of whips. One by n Quinby won
the minor stockholders over to his
primary object and approached the
point where he could deal the blow,
Henley grfmly waited. Mark was not
approached on the matter, for the sui
f1cient reason that he, too, had been
singled out for vengeance.
"Quinby is back" he told Kazia

then grew serious. "Kazia, I'm going
to build it At least, I'm going to
start it"
"Ah!" She turned away with a sharI
intake OF breath. TIT would be
something worth while."
For an hour. Unconscious Of cruelty
he discoursed of his plans, eagerly and
