TWO R0MANCES OF THE WAR
Woman Adopts Nephew and Niece,
and Long-Separated Brothers
Meet in England.

London.-Here are two romances of
the war
A boy and girl, Belgian refugees, at
Swansea, were adopted by a man and
wife of Abercynon. The children now
prove to be those of the wife's dead
sister, who went to Belgium as a gov
erness years ago. A locket which was
found on the little girl led to the dis
covery.
There has been at a hospital in Car
diff a remarkable reunion of two broth
ers who had not seen each other in 16
years. One is Martin Gaffey, of the
Second Leinster regiment, the other
John Gaffey, of the First Connaught
rangers. One of the nurses noticed
the coincidence in names and this
led to their meeting. When John
joined the regiment Martin was still
a child. One brother was wounded in
the right arm, the other in the left
arm.

KAISER KEPT EYE ON BANKS

Trouble.

which is well known to French f1nan-

moned the president of the Reichs-
bank and asked him:
In case grave international po-
litical event should arise tomorrow
would the German banks be able to
pay their deposits? ?"
The president replied that such an
event would mean bankruptcy The
kaiser then said:
We'll, arrange it so that if l ask
you the same question soon you will
be able to give me different answer"
The president of the Imperial bank
has ever since insisted that the Ger
man banks kept an active watch on
their liquid assets At the beginning
of June he convoked the representa-
tives of the great financial establish
ments of Berlin to remind them of
this necessity.

SUPREME COURT RULES
AGAINST TECHNICALITIES

The United States supreme court

by the government with having caus.
ed the transportation of two women

ton"
The highest court in the land ruleo
that such technicalities have no bear.
ing on the justice of the case, an6
upheld the charge against the defen
dants.
Many men guilty of the foules,
murders have gone free through
technicalities trivial compared to this
one.
The supreme court has set a goot
example for trial judges in ignoring
immaterial ~defenses, a the Sal
Lake Telegram.
We believe the time is comine
when sentiment will force the use OF
common sense in administration oil
the law and there will be no suef

because the prosecutor, in drawing

the gun with which he did the killing
was a deadly weapon. This very
thing has happened.

THE REFRESHING CASE
OF MISS HEATH.

How refreshing to turn from Mexi-
co, ALBANY, politics in this town and
from the Matteawan fugitive, to con-
slider briefly Miss Elizabeth Heath
name redolent of Nature and Mother
Earth! How inyigorating to get
away for a moment from plots, chi
caneries and deeeits to enjoy the fine
exhibition of human sympathy which
the plight of Elizabeth Heath elected.
It goes without saying that human
sympathy exists always, but, pes
simistic. We lose sight of it, and so
add unhappiness to existence.
Miss Elizabeth Heath. a typical
Irish girl, eighteen years old and
pretty-an orphan, and pretty, mark
you-cannot find honest work. For
two weeks she seeks employment,
sleeping in the parks, poor child and
at the dead of night, bathing in the
park lakes. keeping herself clean
morally and physically, too. At last,
despairing, but true to herself. she
takes poison, having pinned this note.
which would have been a splendid
epitaph, to the clean. darned, blessed
shirtwaist, I'D rather die than not
be a good girl"
Thank goodness-thanks. perhaps.
TO her goodness--she does not die.
The doctors in the hospital to which
she was taken gladly subscribed
money to help to raise her from the
depths of despair. Please remember
that the doctors In a hospital easily
recognize those maligners who pre-
tend virtue. The police who arrested
Elizabeth Heath under that law
which stamps the human tired of
life a criminal joyfully "chipped in"
to give her a purse. Everybody
knows that the honest patrolman,
9S per cent of the force, has not
much money. 1t Is not difficult to
see Patrolman Toomey going home
and telling his wife of Elizabeth
Heath and saying. Il gave a dollar
for her" And here's another for the
Colleen says Mrs. Toomey, from
the sayings. Let the landlord wait"
But, finest of all, women are driv-
ing to the hospital in motor cars, or
taxis, and saying, earnestly. IF
Elizabeth Heath needs a home. mine
is open to her, or I haven't a daugh-
ter. send her to me-" and so on Isn't
it splendid? Isn't 1t encouraging?
Forget the Vaccinations. the schem-
ings. Pity, mercy. charity, exists
and will always.

impunity what the woman is damned
for doing. The man Gus in him
self the weaknesses that he never
forgets in her, and he expects her to
lightly condone in him the offenses
for which he puts her out of doors.
The most absurd and arrogant
provision of this double standard of
conduct is the theory that obtains
that a woman who has had a past
should reveal 1t all to the man who
asks her to marry him before mar
rage, and that If she doesn't do SO
she has been guilty of a most treas
enable act.
But no woman expects the man
she marries to make a clean breast
of his past life to her before they
are married, moi does any mar feel
called to recite the litany of his sins
to his prospective bride or deem him.
self dishonorable In not doing so.
And in this. I think, he is exactly
right. The past of a man or woman
concerns the individual he or she is
going to marry only in so far as TO
the character it has produced in the
man or woman and the complications
II has brought about.-Dorothy Dix.
