Japan has undertaken to reforest

This is piece of far-sighted common

Now, what Gardner wished, he ex-

stand the rest of Brunt's trick as well

the division on time.
The click of the telegraph instru-

he explained to Brunt that he had
come to relieve him.
Then he listened intelligently while
the other explained the situation Of
the various trains. He took the book
and ran over it with practiced eye.

Suddenly the ticking of an instru-

and listened. 1t was the tower man

seventy-three had passed on time.
Again came the call Of the telegraph
instrument. Seventy-three again. She

PHYSICAL BLIGHT AS
FRUIT OF THE WAR
Offspring Of Survivors to Be
Weak and Crippled,

Neutrality-suspicious. Europe of the fu-
ture. no matter upon which side vic
tory rests, declare medical men and
scientists, will sweep the devastating
hand Of physical blight. Children with
crippled forms. weak bodies and un-
balanced minds will fill the cradles of
every nation now at war, offspring of
the men made unfit for parentage by
the rigors of the great conflict.
DR.. Ales Hrdlicka, curator Of the Ma
tiOnal museum and noted anthropOI.
ogist. is one Of the savants who has
studied the effect Of Europe's conflict
upon the children yet to be born. 10
him the present war presents a vastly
different aspect with regard to future
generations than any conflict has ever
presented before.
Since men Of science first began to
study the effect Of wars upon the hu-
man races it has been admitted that
whenever the best physical examples
ct a nation went to war to be destroyed
the physical manhood Of that nation
suffered. Then it was discovered that
for every man killed or fatally wound.
ed four died Of disease AS warfare
approached it's present modern charac-
ter the number of killed and wounded
in each engagement decreased. while
the number who died from natural
causes" increased. Army physicians
say that the percentage of mortality
from wounds in the present conflict is
likely to be far less than it has been in
the wars Of the past. ~ ...
But the scientists-both medical men
and nthropologists-addt to that state
ment their belief that the loss Of the
men killed in the war will not detract
from the physical welfare Of Europe's
future sons 0ne-hundredth part as
much as will the men who return un.
wounded from the field. because war Is
no longer primarily an annihilator Of
life. so far as the calculations of science
are concerned. but shatterer of nerv-
GUS constitutions. creator of neuras-
thenic wrecks, weakened mentalities
and sapped vitalities

This has come as something of d

It's something on the order Of the

Adoos are reported to be taking is
situated at Chevy Chase, not far from
the Chevy Chase club. Of which Presi-

A cottage at Chevy Chase comes
very near being the kind of house
known in 1880 as a mansion. Chevy
Chase Is the most exclusive suburb
of all the suburbs around the capital,
and the man who buys house there
finds his deed quite full of clauses.

of the house he must build on the lot
