CHICAGO WHEAT MARKET.

Chicago. Sept. "A petition has reached the on
Gals In Washington for the removal Of the duty Of

which would mean lowering the price to cents

movement mainly New York people, who are
investigating the high Price Of living. and who feel
that the farmers Of the United States, who have
enjoyed great prosperity for many years, should sell
their wheat. the price is certainly higher than
they have received for sone time.

MODERN WAR IS MERCIFUL
Under Existing Conditions the Wound
ed Are Given a Fair Chance
to Recover Health.

A general impression is that with
powerful weapons Of great precision
greater loss of life and greater pain
are caused. The view Is almost GER
tainly inaccurate. The modern bull
let, says the Scotsman, unless it is of
the soft-nosed type, is on the whole
merciful, and either kills outright or
gives its victim a fair chance OF re-
covery. 1t does not, as a rule, mutt
late.
The ambulance corps was practical
ly unknown GO years ago, and not
only Is aid brought more rapidly to
the wounded, but it is far more eff
fective than in the pre-Lister days.
Rapidly of conveyance has increased
beyond all comparison. In the pres
ent war it is true to say that in many
cases men have been lying in a Brit
ish hospital within "a hours of re
ceiving their wounds. If the risk OF
being hit is greater, the chances OF
recovery from injury have been i'm.
mensely increased.

NO GREAT DEMAND FOR BOYS
Male Children a Poor Second With
Those Who Would Become
Foster Parents.

The French are receiving in their
homes refugees from Belgium and
northern France. The Germans are
doing the same as regards the refu-
gees from oriental Prussia"
The speaker was a returned tourist.
He went on:
Many French and German house
holds have neither room enough nor
means enough to take in a whole fam
lily. They must confine themselves to
n child. Well, they invariably bid
then for a little girl. They never want
a boy.
Il have e in my travels several
hundred of these offers to take in
children-and every blessed offer was
for girls. What is the cause of this?
The cause must evidently be that
girls are better behaved, more amiable
and nicer all around than boys.

~ography, has taught me that female
children stand miles higher in popular
esteem than male children. What's
