EARL OF DUNDoNAnD. @ TO-DAY, SCOTTISH HERO
 OF BRITISH ARMY

Men of ancient lineage have not, with a few exceptions, attained great in the modern wars of Great Britain but one of the most notewor- thy exceptions is the Earl of Dun donald, who was born sixty-two years ago today. This Scottish noble holds a title which dates from 1869, and a barony even o1der< The twelfth Earl began his military ca reer in 1870. and first saw active ser vice. in the Nile expedition of thirty years ago. He served in Stewards expedition through the desert to the relief of Khartourn, and took part in several battles. When volunteers were called for to ride across the desert, through a country swarming with the enemy, to carry dispatches announcing the death of the gallant Gordon and the fall of Khartounn, the young Scotchman undertook the mis- sion, and accomplished it in safety. For this daring exploit he was pro- noted to the rank of Lieutenant Colonel, and became a popular hero. He again served his country in the South African war, and his brigade led the final advance into Ladysrnith He was the hero of several engage ments and was made Major-3eneral for distin g1ished services in the field. After the war, from 1902 to 1904, he was commander of the Canadian mill itia.
 A number of the EarPs ancestors achieved fame as warriors and scf- entists. The ninth Earl made many valuable contrib butions to the science of chemistry, and his son invented tunne1ng under water by compress ed air and other engineering methods and Improvements. The latter also distinguished himself in des{ Voying a false report of NapoIeon's death, for speculative purposes, and, al- though he was later proved innocent, he was imprisoned for year and eaz- pel1ed from the navy in disgrace. He sought a refuge in South America, where he performed great exploits as the commander of the navy of the Chilean patriots, and helped to gain the independence of Chile and Peru Admiral Cochrane, as he was then known, thus became enshrinedi In
 South American history as one of the great heroes and patriots, and both Chile and Peru have erected monu-
 ments to con1memorate his name.

THE WRONG WAY TO KEEP LOVE

Dear Miss Libbey:
 [. go with 8 young lady am deeply in love with her. Kept steady company for over a year. She is as kind and good as she can be, but 1t seems so strange when we go to a party I'll ask her to play the piano and she refuses. But if the other boys ask her she plays for them. The same way at dances. If ask her to dance she takes her time in getting up to dance. But if any of her schoolmates ask her she gets right up and waltzes off with them. It makes me feel bad. I can't under stand her at all. Kindly let me have your adv1ce on this, if you please.
 HARRY.
 Some young girls imagine that they are acting very cute to be contrary to lover. They think they are be- ing independent Have an earnest talk with the girl, telling her firmly, but convincingly, that you have about concluded to part from her that she may enjoy more fully the society of those whom she is so anxious to please. I think this should have the desired result.

TO-DAYS POEM
OCTOBER.

October of the wine.red leaves
 Wbat memories are in thy name, And what sweet imagery perceives The hills with wizardry afane! ,. The dogwood glowing on the height, The sumach set against the sky, And. on the pure, crisp air of night The wild goose ha1fooing it's cry! October, thou art beautifu1-too
 rare-too beautiful to dieI Like soldiers in their tents of gold, - The fields are wonderful with corn, And rnists of meIlowness enfold
 The world of faerie at morn. The Hunters Moon invokes romance Upon the soft and shadowed air, And all the stars of Heaven dance For joy of beauty everywhere. How red like the West, has come to
 glow When day goes riding to his rest. And what soft winds contrive to blow Their sweets from Afa.by the blest! The ki1deer calls upon the shore, The sky grows mystic like the sea, And all the arts of fairy lore.
 Are working magic in }tl1e tree. October, thou are happiness
 dearest dreams come true in
 thee!

NO SUNDAY NIGHT BEAU

Dear Miss Libbey:
 I keep company with a fellow who treats me very well The only fault I can find he never makes a date with me on Sunday nights, although through the week see him very of- ten and go to places of amusement with him. hat can [ do to have his company on Sunday nights also?

PARIS, Sept. io.-The
Germans on the north bank
of the River Aisne are re-
forming their lines. They
have heavily entrenched the
low hills and seem prepared
to make a determined stand,

they will try to hold their
present position until they
have completed stronger de-
fenses to their rear.

Conditions are becoming increas-

Heavy rains have continued The
rivers are raging torrents. Bridges
have been generally destroyed. Pom

streams are too swollen to ford.
The countryside has been con-
verted into a bog.
German Position Strong
Military experts admit the Ger
man position on the River Aisne is
the strongest they have held since
they invaded France. Defensive
conditions are said to be ideal.
Nevertheless, IL is expected they
