a Baron, had a Daughter who started
out as Katie when she carried the HOT
Coffee over to Dad every Noon.
When she got her first Chip Dla-
mond and Father switched from the
Dudeen to Cigars, she was known IN
High School Circles as Katherine.
And when Pop got in on the main
Divvy and began to take an interest
in Paintings, the name went down on
the Register at the Waldorf as hath-
ryn, in those peaked Sierra Nevada
Letters about four inches high.
Katie used to go to st. Joseph $
Hall once, in while with Martin, the
Lad who helped around the Grocery.
Katherine regarded with much Fa-
yor Pallid Drug Clerk who acted as
a Clearing House for all Local Scan
dal.
But say, when Kathryn came PACK
from a vine-clad Institute overlooking
the historic Hudson and devoted to the
embossing and polishing of the re-
male Progeny of those who have got
away with it, she began working the
Snuffer on all the Would-Bes back IN
the Mill Town, and when she got
through extinguishing, the little Group
that remained looked like the Rem
nant of the Old Guard at Waterloo.
Father had to stick around because
occasionally the eight thousand COCO
Tempered Boys on the Pay Roll would
begin TO burn with Wood Alcohol and
the Wrongs of Labor and pull on a
few Murders, merely to hasten the
Triumph of Justice.
BY the way. Kathryn had Mother

Cost of Flying AeropIanes.

It IS estimated that the fuel and
oil costs of an aeroplane of high pow.
er run into about five dollars per hour
Of flight. In England there are from
one hundred and twenty to one hun
bred and fifty aeroplanes, and as each
machine is expected to do about two
hundred and fifty hours flying annual
". the significance of high fuel costs
will begin to be appreciated. 1t will
be measured by fuel and oil bill of
about one hundred and fifty thousand
dollars a year at retail prices. Those
who read the signs expect the rate of
increase Of aircraft to continue to
one thousand aeroplanes, and many
dozens of airships within the next two
years mean probably a fuel and oil
bill of $1,250,000. 1t has been further
estimated that on the above supposi-
ton of development aeronautics may
be expected within two years to take
one-sixth part of the fuel consumption
of all the motor-vehicles in Britain.
OF the total consumption, estimated
by Mr.. Critchley at about one hundred
million gallons a year. 1t seems that
twenty million gallons are used by the
omnibuses and taxicabs OF London,
while motor boats, motor cycles and
sundry users take 100000, so that
on this basis the 100000 vehicles in
England take 100000 gallons.

A German princeling went to pay a
visit of ceremony to a small but an
cient and honorable city situated upon
a branch line of railway. His serene
highness had just stepped from his
private car upon the bunting-bedecked
station platform. Greetings had been
exchanged with the local receiving
party.

burgomaster, ARE those children do

The slave vanished, and almost in an
instant the door opened, and the slave,
bearing in his arms the prettiest girl
in New York, entered and put her
down in chair. Aladdin looked at
her in establishment. She had on a
shabby dress. Her hair was tousled.
Evidently she was from the East side.

1t was on an east Texas train.
The little office pot of an engine,
having wheezed laboriously over
serpentine rails, jolted to restful
stop at no place in particular. Time
passed tediously. Some of the pass
engers stalked nervously up and down
the aisles, while others drew their
felt hats down over their eyes and
tried to forget it. When a half hour
had elapsed the conductor came
through.
Say, friend" said querulous
voiced old man, .as near as you can
tell, what's holdin' us?'

explanation.
Well, why don't you git another

THROW AWAY YOUR

Free Prescription
You Can Have Filled and Use at Home

: Do you wear glasses? Are you a VIC
tim Of eye-strain or other eye-weak-
nesses? If so, you will be glad to know
that there is real hope for you. Many
whose eyes were falling, say they have
had their eyes restored through the prin-
ciple of this wonderful free prescription.
One man says. after trying it: Il was
almost blind; could not see to read at

any glasses and my eyes do not water
any more. At night they would pain
dreadfully; now they feel fine all the

seemed hazy with or without glasses, but
after using this prescription for fifteen
days everything seems clear. l can even
read fine print without glasses" 1t Is
believed that thousands who wear glasses
can now discard them in a reasonable
time and multitudes more will be able to
strengthen their eyes so as to be spared
the trouble and expense of ever getting
glasses. Eye troubles of many descrip-
lions may be wonderfully benefited by
following the simple rules. Here is the
prescription: Go to any active drug store
and get a bottle of DIPLOMA. Fill a two
ounce bottle with warm water. drop in
one DIPLOMA tablet and allow to dissolve.
With this liquid, battle the eyes two to
four times daily. You should notice your
eyes clear up perceptibly right from the

appear. IF your eyes are bothering you,
even a little, take steps to save them

Mexico Rich In Natural Wealth.

In natural wealth Mexico is one of
the most favored of all the lands of
the earth. Its resources are little
short of marvellous. In gold, silver,
and the various precious stones its
possibilities are tremendous. 1t is
rich in petroleum. Its forests are i'm
mensely rich. Its agricultural pos
sibilities are scarcely to be estimated,
so great are they. In all the elements
of natural wealth the country leads
all others. As regards climate, Mex
leo, in its higher regions, is para
disc; and after what was achieved at
Panama, it is safe to say that even
the coast regions may be made per
fectly wholesome and safe.

 ID KILL GERMANS kaisers Ambassador Says eo,ooo,ooo Rounds Being Manufactured In

WASHINGTON, Dec. 9.-The Ger man ambassador asserts that 60,O00,. 900 rounds of buckshot cartridges with a new kind of dum-dum projec- tile, are being manufactured in the United States by American manufac. turers for the use of the allies against the German soldiers.
 He has made no protest to the State department against the manufacture and sale of the carriages, as it is not a violation of the international laws of neutrality to sell cartridges to belligerents, but it is possible that the ambassador will call today upon Secretary Bryan and ask that dunn. dunn cartridges be not allowed sent from the United States for use against Germans in spite of the in ternational regulations which oppose dum-dum bullets of any kind.

Wedae In German Line.

LONDON. Dec. 9.-The allies have driven a wedge into the German line at Roulers, which is ten miles north. west of Ypres, on the railroad line to Ghent. The wedge is being wid ened as fast as new troops reach the scene. The British warships have re sumed the bombardment of the Ger man positions along the coast.
 Advance Not General.
 The allies advance is not general along the entire line. The effort is being made to turn the German righ, flank by forcing the retirement from Ostend towards Antwerp. The new line would require 100000 more troops to hold, as it is much longer besides forcing the Germans to leave the coast towns.
