new statewide campaign on eu-
genics is planned by the state COM
mission to investigate feeble-minded-
ness. insanity, ETC., named by the gov.

tober.

Or. Barrett, who is the executive
officer of the commission, told of the
work winch mad already been done

report could be made ready for the
governor and the legislature. Many
of the state institutions which con-
tain predetermined cases have already
been visited.
In the school work a blank is to be
sent out with the reports for the year
to each school. This blank is for the
census takers to fill out. There is an

Clever Wife,

Food faddists cause Mr.. Ralph
Nevill to make some rather piquant
remarks in his latest book, "Fancies,
Fashions and Fads" (Methuen), and
he tells an amusing story at the ex-
pense of one of them.
When at luncheon with friend he
observed that he touched no meat.
but ate only certain strange vegetar-
ian dishes, which had evidently been
prepared for his special consumption.
Later on" says Mr. Nevill, Il inquired
OF his wife II this new diet agreed
with her husband.
1T didn't at first she replied. but
1t does now
From his looks he certainly seems
to thrive on It. He never looked more
robust In his life
81 take care of that she went on,
though | hope he won't find IL out.
No man partakes of a more carnivor-
Gus diet than he. Every one OF those
vegetable courses you saw today was
full of the strongest meat juice. which.
by my orders. is put into everything
served to him before 1t appears on
the table"

just served with portion of stewed

Sweden.

The campaign launched by Swedish
patriots to influence the riksdag TO
strengthen Sweden's defenses and
increase the efficiency Of the navy Is
being carried on with great vigor
and enthusiasm. The revelations or
the espionage trial, already set forth
in this column, have convinced the
Swedish people that the Russian bear
is planning to strike a blow at their
beloved country. and many who for
merly opposed the expenditure Oh
huge sums of money for military pur1
poses are now as eager as Sven He
din himself for large military appro-
priations. The zeal of the people Is
shown by the assembling at Stock
holm of 10000 patriotic subjects OF
King Gustaf residing in the various
districts of Sweden for the purpose
of making a monster demonstration In
favor of increasing the nations ar
maments. According to a cablegram
to the Associated Press, the demon
stration was exceedingly spectacular,
causing the entire capital to sit up
and take notice" The army OF pa
triots was greeted with enthusiasm
by the entire population of Stock
holm as 1t marched through the
streets to the palace, where KING
Gustaf was waiting to receive 1t.
The procession was a picturesque
one, composed OF small land owners
and farmers from every part OF the
kingdom. All of them were dressed
In holiday attire and wore emblems
representative Of the districts whence
they came.
The peasants we're warmly well
coined by the king, who stood on the
portico OF the palace. Their petition
stated they were ready to make all
the necessary sacrifices to defend
their country and to assure its inde-
pendence, and demanded that the mat
ter be taken in hand forthwith.
The king replied that he was In
hearty accord with the desire OF the
pilgrims and shared their opinion that
the problem was one which must
be solved without loss Of time.
ION that point" he declared, Il am
determined not to yield. The fleet OF
Sweden also must be strengthened"
Each of the men who marched In
the procession was presented with a
small portrait OF his majesty and as
the demonstrators left the precincts
of the palace they again were loudly
cheered by the populace.
Sven Hedin has become one OF the
most popular men Of Sweden because
of the intense feeling In favor Of q
stronger national armament, and on
the lecture tour upon which he start
ed recently, he is being received with
great enthusiasm everywhere. Hedin
Is brilliant, as we'll as courageous
man, but as a rule his countrymen re-
gard him as an extremist on military
questions. but Just now he is a patriot
after their own hearts.
AS already narrated In this column,
two Persians we're recently arrested
near Stockholm on the suspicion OF
being spies. Now It II claimed that
proof has been found of the fact that
they had been measuring the depth OF
the water near Morkoen (the Mork
island), and It is thought that they
are either Russians or Russian sub
Jects.
