MERC|FuL DEATH
FOR FREAK TWINS
Though Source of Wealth for Parents
Was Cut Off

BERLIN, August IA strange
freak of nature has persisted with
the Bilbel twins. who died several
days since within ten hours of one
another. These unhappy girls, who
were the children of bank messen
ger, were Joined to one another by
their heads, and the junction was so
complete that when one of them
ssuccumbed to Whooping cough the
doctors decided that any attempt at
separation would only add to the suf-
ferings of the survivor.
The twins, who were two and a
half years old, had been exhibited in
most of the capitals of Europe and
the parents are said to have profited
by their display to the extent Of
$780, Perhaps there are no grounds
for regretting that they failed to
grow to an age at which they could
realize their miserable plight. AS it
was, the death Of the second of the
twins seems to have been a suffi .
GENTLY painful one, the child contfn
ually striking out with her fists at
the body of the dead sister.

SOME TUNNEL BORING
IN RECORD time

BERNIE, Aug. 1.-The record for
the Hauenstein base tunnel, five miles
"a yards long, which has been pierced
from the south side, the engineers af-
forwards passing throughout to the
north and returning by motorcar. The
tunnel is entirely in Swiss territory,
and one entrance is near Often. Work
on this tunnel, which is to shorten by
20 minutes the time of the approach
journey to the Gothard line, was begun
on January 81, 1912, and at one time
as many as 1000 workmen, almost ex-
clusively Italians, were employed. Ac-
cording to the contract the tunnel must
be pierced by January 10, 1916, and
should the contractors succeed in pierre
ing it Is months sooner than contract
time they are to receive a bonus of
from $4,000 to 100000.
The line it was also stipulated, must
be ready for traffic by January 10,
1917. 1t is confidently hoped, however
that, as it has been pierced IS months
before contract time, so it will be ready
for traffic IS months before the period
stipulated The firm of julius Bergen
Uimited) Berlin, received the con-
tract for the work, greatly to the dis
gust of the Swiss, because their ten
der ($3,963,545) was very considerably
lower than the lowest Swiss tender
The Swiss Federal railways estimate
that the tunnel and two small but es
sential portions of approach line will
cost about 100000 before they are
fully complete.

The use of Sage and Sulphur for

hair beautifully dark, glossy anu

But brewing at home is mussy ana

at any drug store for q SO cent bottle
of "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair

old recipe which can be depended

beauty to the hair and is splendid
for dandruff. dry. feverish. itchy

Surely this is a move in the right di-

the tide turned? Away back in 1883,
Roger Sherman and others began to ad-

SEEMING the sale and controlling the
business A hundred years ago when
the sons of God gathered themselves
together as in the days of Job, this
Satan of high license came also among
them and through all the century fol-
lowing, he has been going to and fro
through the earth and walking up and
down on it But in 1926 Rev. Lyman
Beeches demanded that ardent spirits
be banished from the list of lawful
articles of commerce. In 1882 the grand
jury of New York said the time had ar
rived when license should no longer be
granted. Then came the decision of
Chief Justice fancy that prohibition
was constitutional, and the tremendous
decision of Maine, followed by Massa-
chusetts, and thirteen other states that
prohibition was practical
Then came the war; and the internal
| revenue liquor law which gave the
liquor traffic an appeal to the last re-
sort of our American politics-the bal
! lot box. First, Illinois slipped her
cables, then New York dropped out of
the fight, Iowa. Pennsylvania, and the
other states followed in rapid success

The very important issue of state

campaign in favor of a constitutional
amendment will be shortly instituted.
This, like all other important ques-

PIANO INVENTION
BY Which instrument Is Given Organ
Tone

PARIS, August IA conversations
was given this wee bky the Society
of French Civil Engineers at which
some visiting British engineers were
introduced to a new invention by
two Frenchmen, NJ Maitre and M
Martin, a piano in which the notes
are produced by the wires being set
in vibration by an electromagnetic in
stead of being struck by hammers.
The mechanism is operated in the
usual way by a keyboard, but, in
stead of dying gradually away as
they do in ordinary piano notes, they
maintain their volume as long as
the key is pressed. The effect p-o-
duced Is similar to that of an organ
and makes the piano an entirely new
and different instrument.

LOCATING THE RESPONSIBILITY

My purpose is to consider the queS-
ton of responsibility. Here is this So
cial and national curse, building its
great brewcries in defiance of public
sentiment opening it's countless doors
in our busiest streets, buying the sill
ence of the press, and seeking to throt-
tie the pulpit. 1t is here by permission;
there are some, therefore, whose per-
mission must be gained before it can
be removed.
It Has Not Been Long Since the Drunk
ard Himself was Held to be Re-
sponsibIe for Drunkenness
He it is who creates the demand, he
organizes the market.
If there were no drinking, there
would be no saloons This is an an
| cient argument, worthy of the days
when liquor was kept in grocery stores
and before the Internal custom hat
| been adopted of mixing poisonous
drugs with the drink, so that the thirs
| would be inflamed, rather than salts
fled by a glass, and thus the suppl!
create it's own demand. And there arr
men who seem to know no better now
Temperance fossils of prehistori
eras, who ought to be, ashamed 0
themselves for not hiring out to som
museum of natural curiosities, and tax

they belong.
