ODD THINGS IN THE WAR

When war is being waged strange things some
times occur,-thngs that are queer and inconsst-
ent. These occurrences receive incidental mention
In the columns of the newspapers and the maga-
zines, and may of themselves be of little or no
import yet they are interesting.
French and German soldiers recently established
postoffice near their firing lines, we are told in
the dispatches, where they exchange mail The
soldiers of the hostile armies gather there, if we
may believe reports, and get their newspapers and
letters as though they not engaged the rest of
the time in killing another.
This instance is merely another form of the Gus
tom, followed by Union and Confederate soldiers
IN the Civil War; of meeting at the picket lines
and exchanging tobacco, or gathering to get water
for their wounded from common source This
queer practice is record here in our own state
on tablet at Spangler's Spring. on the battlefield
of Gettysburg.
There have been little incongruities and big ones
since the opening of hostiities in Europe. The
soldiers cannot quite adjust themselves to their
changed environments. Consistency in small things
cannot well be expected of men who kill the cows
IN community to get meat, and let the babies
starve for want of mix

bonds under sane restrictions, for the first time
since the Exchange was closed at the outbreak Of
the European war, may be regarded as sort of
experiment or "feeler" put out to see how the
wind is blowing in the great Wall Street financial
center.
There undoubtedly has been revival of conf.
dence among investors since the panicky days when
the European hostilities upset the financial world
and caused the securities markets Of this country
generally to close to prevent an unloading of for
efgn-held stocks and bonds which undoubtedly
would have resulted in securities prices going to
smash in this country with resultant tremendous
losses to American investors.
While, of course, financial conditions have not
reached the normal state of before the outbreak Of
the European war, the decision of the Stock Ex-
change authorities in reopening the bond depart
ment under restrictions designed to provide safe.
guards against precipitate liquidation from abroad
is in line with the sane and conservative course that
has been followed consistently by the Exchange S
governors since the war started.
The resumption of systematic dealings in bonds
is justified by the prices of securities have
taken in recent private sales in this country and
sales made the New York Curb market, and it
paves the way for the gradual removal of restric-
tions from trading in other securities and for the
consequent revival of great business enterprises de-
pendent upon the floating of loans.

WHAT AMERICANS OWE BRITISH

Something of stir was created in American
financial centers by the publication yesterday of
the statement made by David yd-George, Chan
cellor of the Exchequer, in the British House of
Commons, that the United States owes Great Brit
ain $5,0O0,0O00O0, with the implication that the
inability of Great Britain to collect this debt has
tied up British business, caused financial dead
lock and placed handicap on Great Britain in the
matter of meeting the expenses of the war.
Of course it must be assumed that in referring to
$5,000,O00,000 debt of various American individ-
uals or corporations to British Subjects Lloyd
George had in mind chiefly the amount of British
capital invested in American securities
The closing of the American stock exchanges
along with those of the rest of the world at the
start of the European war; of course, prevented
British security holders from selling their Amer
lean holdings and realizing cash on them; but it
must be borne in mind that had not the American
exchanges closed there would certainly have been
tremendous crash in securities values due to the
unloading by the British of their securities at any
cash figure they could get for them
The dumping of $4,000,0O0 900 or S., ,0O0, 900 900
of British-hed American securities, along with bill
lions of American securities held by investors in
other parts of Europe, as would have occurred had
the American exchanges not been closed promptly,
would have meant tremendous losses not only to
Americans but to the foreign holders of American
securities as WELL
The protection to securities values, given by the
action of the American stock exchanges in closing
down, was therefore to the benefit of foreign hold
ers of American securities as well as to the benefit
of American investors, and so Lloyd-George has no
real cause for complaint at the inability of British
ers to quidate their American holdings, if that was
what he).was driving at

THE FORTUNATE FAT PERSONS

Hardly anybody objects to stoutness of body
except the fat persons themselves Most lean per.
sons are strongly in favor of it, and long for it as
applying to their own frames, even in moderation
If stout persons would know how most of their thin
associates envy them, they might be more apprecia-
tive of their corpuency
An actress, who knows from experience advises
stout persons not to worry for they cannot help
themselves, but rather to smile
That does not mean grin and bear it!'' Fat
persons should smile not despite their stoutness
but because of it. Most of them do one or the
other; it is hard sometimes to tell which
That this fortunate class of persons is in general
a class of smilers is well known fact They need
to beam with their spacious countenances. If they
do not do it, nobody else will feel like attempting
1t. Lean persons do not often break into smiles
except they catch the contagion from their good
natured opposites.
Aside from all these considerations, it is well to
call to mind the old German maxim: .'Fat gives

The Power of Vodka

Much interest was taken in a bottle
of vodka, or Russian liquor, that was
being shown by a man in a Market
street cigar store last night. The own
er was just from New York, and had
bought the liquor as a curiosity, as he
believes, it has never been seen in this
vicinity, at least has never been offered
for sale by any Of the wholesale liquor
stores or behind the bars. Vodka is a
pure white liquor distilled from stale
bread, potatoes, or any other thing that
you might think would not form the
basis of whiskey, and it is said to be
most potent as an intoxicant, albeit its
qualities as a thirst -assuager are said to
be nil, one drink creating desire for
another one until the man who par
takes of it to any great extent is laid
out fiat. One drink will make a man
wealthy, two will make him hellicose,
three will make him steal his own
pocketbook and four will induce him to
stone his grandmother. The Czar of Rus
sia has forbidden it's manufacture and
sale in Russia, and as the Russian gov
ernment held the manufacturing priv
ileges, the Gar at one stroke of his
pen created condition of temperance
in the home country. Volka can't be
made in this country-at least the kind
of vodka that was made in Russia
but brand of white forty-rod whiskey
much resembling Fit is made, but it
lacks the potency of the Russian ma
tional beverage.
