PAUL KAMMERER,
- of the University of Vienna,
has made some intarnSti in o.

@ROFESSOR PAUL KAN MERER,
of the University of Vienna,
l. has made some interesting
experiments ON the common fire
lizard or salamander of Europe,
which have a most important bear
ing on eugenics and the improve
ment of the human race.
He finds that the salamanderI if
kept on yellow soil tends to become
yellow, and that it's descendants in
herit this characteristic. If the sala-
mander be kept on black soil then
he becomes largely black and his
descendants inherit that color.
The Professor thinks that this
proves in a general way that ac-
quired characteristics are transmit
ted, and that if a man be well nour-
ished and developed his descendants
will inherit his strength. This is in
opposition to the long asserted
theory that a child cannot inherit
the qualities its parents acquired
after their birth and which We're not
in the parents when born.
The Professor says lnat II the
salamander be kept for years upon
yellow clay, then his yellow mark
ings become enriched at the expense
of the black ground color. If half
OF the offspring Of individuals which
have thus become very yellow be
raised on yellow soil, the amount of
yellow increases and appears in
broad regularly distributed longi-
tudinal bands. The other half OF
the offspring if grown on dark soil
becomes less yellow, always, how
ever, in close relation with the OPP
posing influence of the color of the
surroundings, and likewise in regu-
lar order-in this instance as rows
of spots along the sides of the body.
If the parent generation of the fire

den soil, after some years it becomes

JUSTICE GIEGERICH, of the Su-
preme Court of New York, has
caused fires of wrath to blaze
beneath fair hair by asserting that
home-wreckers are nearly always
blondes. Having recently tried 220
divorce cases he has discovered that
30 of the correspondents were
blondes.
''The blonde affinity cuts a large
figure in the transientness of Amer
lean homes" says the grave Jurlst,
intimating that-the placard, Danger!
Beware!" should be carried on the
breast and shoulders of a blonde as
sandwich man displays his advertise
ment to staring world. Il don't
know why it is, but it Is asserts the
Supreme Court Justice.
Herman l.. Roth, who has secured
more divorces for prominent New
Workers, and for national celebrities
than any other attorney in the United
States, not only agrees with Justice
Giegerich, but he goes further.
''Ninety-nine of every hundred CO.
respondents are blondes" he says,
and boldly gives the reasons for his
unfaith in the blonde. What he says
will pour oil upon the leaping flames
of rage among the fair-haired women
of all countries. Casting his net in
the dark sea of his experience, Mr..
Roth brings UP these fish of fact:
Blondes are vain. Blondes are
weak-willed. Blondes are tickle.
Blondes love no one we'll save them
selves. Blondes invite Irritation and
challenge insult. Blondes bear the
trademark of the coquette. They
say, in effect: Catch me. am easily
caught"
On hearing what the Supreme Court
Justice and the famous attorney say,
blondes will be tempted to change their
minds about the desirability of their
coloring. Without doubt women have
always believed it good fortune to be
born a blonde. The proof of this is
that if they are not blondes many Of
them endeavor to become so. Coquet
fish women, calculating women, de-
signing women, INSCRIPTIONS women,
hold private seances with beauty spe-
cialists. They go into the beauty shop
laboratory brunettes or mediums or
even of the gray variety of femininity
and come out blonde. Why? Because
they believe that to be blonde is to
be attractive to men. To be blonde
is to be a snarer of men. So women
have thought and so men have be-
lieved.
But blonde character, like murder,
will out. The blonde is being found
cut Justice Giegerich and Attorney
Roth have unmasked them. They
stand revealed to the world as trou-
ble-makers, heartless, designing, self
ish. without affection, without con
tinuity. sans will, sans practically
everything that is admirable save
sunny head. And that sunshine, as
both the man of the Bench and the
man of the Bar have pointed out, is
often not distilled by nature, but has
been poured out of bottle and
straight upon tresses that were once
Of far different shade.
Suffragettes will welcome the ex-
pose of the blonde, because it sheds Il
sidelight on the mental density OF
men. The average man doesn't know
real blonde from bogus one. Mr.
Roth who knows the wiles of women
as he knows his alphabet, says so.
The attorney sums up blondes ar

the Germans would have no occasion

PARIS Nov 19.-Defeat OF the
Germans in their operations against
the allies in the vicinity of Tracy-Le-
Val on the north bank Of the Aisne is
announced in an official French state
ment issued here this afternoon. 1t
states there was no attack by the in
fantry. The French positions in the
ArgOnne forest, il states have been
maintained.
The official cOmmunique follows:
AT the north. the day of yesterday
was marked by a recTudescence of &C
tivity on the part of the enemy's
artillery, particularly between the sea
and the Lys. There was no attack
by infantry
Between the Disc and the Aisne the
operations around Tracy-Le-Val have
terminated very favorably for our
troops. Day before yesterday the
Germans attempted to recapture it
after having taken our first trenches.
But a vigorous counter attack by our
Algerian contingent threw the enemy
back, took from him all the ground
that we had lost and inflicted heavy
losses upon them.
In the ArgOnne we have maintain
ed our position. On the rest of the
front there is nothing to report"
Fierce Fight on North Bank.
This is the first official announce
ment that has been issued stating that
the TurcOs were in the battle front
along the Aisne As they have been
sent TO points where the fighting was
fiercest. il is believed here by the mill
itary experts that there has been q
e terrific conflict within the last few
DAYS on the north bank Of the Aisne.
The French officially announced
that the allies had taken possession
f.,r,
of a cemetery To the northeast of the
village. This was six days ago. and
lighting has probably been in prog
ress in that section for that many
days.
As the French statement says that
the fighting has ended very favOrably
for the allies they have evidently
driven the Germans from their posi-
tiOns in and about the cemetery.
Attacks Grow Weaker.
German attacks against the allies
i'm West Flanders have become much
less violent according to advices
reaching from the north today and
French military experts are now pre-
dieting that the invaders along the
Ostend-Dixmude- Ypres line Will soon
have TO retire. Any offensive move
ment by the allies in that region, how
ever. would meet with the same OBJ
stacles which have hampered the Qp-
erations Of the Germans.
