nail. and then YOU will holler. but
twill not avail. Old men by the
hushel are starving today, and

blow to learn what a jag meant.
i'll days long ago, they now might

please The old men are stray
ing through alley and street; the
old men are praving ior some
thing to eat; they throng IN the
city, starved, weary and lame oh.
chez, what a pity. oh. Charles,
what Il shame. And once they
were blowing their rubles with
grace; and once they were going
your idiot pace. Their clamor-
ings reach you, their signs and
their groans; do they nothing

Predicts Sentimental Boycott.
There is bound to be a sentimental
boycott for many years on the part of
the belligerent nations against the
goods of their enemies,'' declared DR..
Veditz. Germans will not buy. English,
French or Russian goods If they can
possibly help It. and it Is safe to say
that German goods will not easily be-
come popular with the allies, or that
Belgium will regard with favor things
marked Made in Germany Now why
should not American goods take the
place of the conmo ODDITIES from coun-
tries that are tabooed?
Costs Billions of Dollars.
Everybody knows this war is cost
ing the participating nations billions
of dollars. That money must be raised
by taxation, and of course
the manufacturers will come in for the
lions share of this new burden. If
this means anything il means increased
costs of production, and increased costs
of production is apt to mean an in
crease in selling prices sufficient to
selling to neutral markets.

his graduation, in 1886 he was ordered
to England to take up the study of naval
construction at the Royal Naval College,
Greenwich. His achievement at that in
stitution in competition with picked men

structor for the twenty eight years since
his appointment has been conspicuous

charge of the work OF the experimental
model basin at the Washington navy

sign of hulls of large vessels. 1t is
