They say the problem Is unsoived. But still I have a notion That when some man invented you He found perpetual notion You never loaf upon the job.
 But do your stunt most gayly: You are forever in our minds,
 We think about you daily. Down in the dismal. darksome depths In your most humble station. You cheerfully perform your task And ask for no vacation faithful servant, tried and true, We think 1t right to mention The fact we think your masters
 should
 Retire you on a pension. You click and chatter all the day, And seem to tire out never, For men may come and men may go But YOU go on forever.

Paris Fears Zeppelin Raid.

PARIS, Dec. 15.-The military au- thorities have ordered all lights out in this city at nights. Information has been received from, Germany through the secret service that the Germans are concentrating the fleet of big Zeppelins near the border and that they are to raid Paris and de- stroy the big public buildings besides bringing terror to the inhabitants of the city. Two score of aeroplanes are held in readiness to send agianst the big German airships and destroy them. The new Zeppelins carry ten to twelve tons of high explosives which is dropped from a cage hung from 500 to 1000 feet below the ma chine so that one man can drop the bombs from point near the earth, at which they are better able to take more certain aim. The airship re- mains high above all possibility from attack by the rapid fire guns and the cage presents but a small mark. Ev- en if the cage is hit the Zeppelin is able to escape in safety.

London n's Moated House.

The bishop of London inhabits the only moated house in London. The grounds of Pullman palace. thirty-five acres in extent, are entirely surround ed by moat constructed by the Dan ish army which encamped here in S79 According to local historian. "the Danes as winter. came on found the high tides encroaching seriously OF their position. and not liking to leave the river and run the risk of being cut off from their ships they threw up a bank with ditch along the river flank of their army and further fortl fled their position by carrying the ditch round the whole camp. The Danish army gone, it was not likely that any bishop would go to the ex' pense of filling up the moat." The wa ter is now regulated by sluice gates built during the episcopacy of Bishop King. who was appointed in 1611.- London Chronicle.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 15.-Col. Goe- thals has again made demand for warships to patrol the waters near the canal because of the constant vio- lations of neutrality by the bellig- erents. The request is so insistent that the State Department has join ed with the War Department in ask ing for ships to be detailed for the service It is believed that trouble has already occurred near the canal. Many British and French warships are on the Atlantic side of the canal and big Japanese fleet is known to be operating near Panama. It is this latter condition that is feared by the department.

"Iron crosses' Pc Apiece

LONDON, Dec. 15.-The Iron Cross was today conferred on hundreds of Londoners, but not by the kiaser. The crosses are imitation German iron Maltese crosses, and were sold in the Strand and other thorough fares at two cents each, including a long piece of yellow ribbon.
 They appealed so much to several drivers that they purchased crosses and tied them around the necks of their horses, and when a dog appear ed in Trafalgar Square with an iron cross attached to it's collar the own CT of the canine was congratulated on having such a highly honored dog.
 The bands of warlike youngsters who parade the streets on Saturdays when the schools are closed were ire. quently decorated with crosses by older persons who could not wtih- stand the temptation thus to invest some of their pennies.

KITCHEN SINKS.
They Are Low Yet Because They Had
 to Be Low Originally.

They Are Low Yet Because They Had
 to Be Low Originally.
 In recent issue of the Survey the question why kitchen sinks have been made so low was discussed. No one seemed able to explain. Finally a certain maker discovered that the orig inal sinks were made when the wash ing of dishes and other sink work was done in wooden tubs with high sides. Such a tub when used in a high sink came up too far, so the sink was made low. Furthermore, as running water and fixed faucets had not long been made, the tub had to be lifted out of the sink and the lower the sink the lighter the lift
 Through improvements in faucets dishpans and other accessories ot kitchen sinks have been made no one has seemed to realize that the sink could be improved by raising. Sc women were-and are-compelled to endure discomfort when doing their ordinary household work.
 "There may be certain percentage of inconvenience to be reached before the human mind grasps the fact that something must be altered" remarks the Journal of the American Medical association.

Servians Retake Belgrade.

NISH, Dec. 15.-Belgrade has been retaken by the Servians from the Austrians. The Servian troops could not be halted by the Austrians and swept into the city, driving the new Austrian governor-general and his staff from Belgrade. The capture of Valievo was followed by a determin- ed effort to push the Austrians from Servia The battle lasted ten days. The fighting was constant day and night. The Austrians tried to stem the tide of battle, which had turned against them, but were unable to check the victorious army command ed by the crown prince. The Aus trians left an immense amount of war supplies at Belgrade, which they were unable to destroy or take with them across the river to Austria. The Austrian river gunboats covered the retreat of the Austrians, who would have been captured but for the aid of the river gunboats.

WHAT "SHOCK" MEANS.
How 1t May Affect the Physical and
 Mental Systems.

How 1t May Affect the Physical and Mental Systems.
 In medical language "shock" means the depression of the vital forces, both
 mental and physical. The condition may result from many causes and may vary from a faintness and pallor that
 soon disappear to state so desperate that the sufferer dies of it, as in the case of serious accident or difficult
 surgical operations.
 Shock may also be the result of an
 overpowering emotion, like great ter
 TOT. That kind of shock is often seen in the survivors of any terrible acct- dent. Many who have not got so much
 as scratch suffer for long time from
 a state of impaired health. Sometimes their nervous systems are so badly shattered that they never entirely re-
 cover That is one of the many reasons
 why foolish practical jokes are wrong. It is not funny to dress up like ghost, to jump out on timid children from be-
 hind doors. to play jokes" with dead
 mice or snakes. And such pleasantries
 are dangerous as well as stupid. Many an unfortunate child has been made the slave of fear all his life by reAson of shock that some playmate gave him in his youth. The remedies that
 the physician uses are those which will
 restore the blood to its normal flow and stimulate the vital functions. For shock associated with great loss of | blood the best thing is to inject salt ! solution. For shock without hemor-
 rhage, stimulant of some kind is gen.
 erally given.-Youth's Companion.

The clever priests of China often in' sert tiny images of Buddha within the shells of living oyster, which are left undisturbed for about year. At the expiration of that time the images are covered with mother of pearl to such an extent that they appear to have grown in this natural manner. The Chinese people hold these shells In great reverence, believing that Buddha dwells within them. However, should a Christian chance to look upon one of the shells it has no further value to them, as it's charm is supposed to have left it-Scientific American.
