quaint bits of old France that are de-
lightfully reminiscent of medieval
times, and seem a portion Of some
vanished village.
Nancy a Fine City.
Across the plateau Of the Argonne to
the southwest lies another charming
city, Nancy, the capital of the depart
ment of the Meurthe ct Moselle. 1t is
the seat of bishop and was the for
mer capital of Lorraine. 1t was once
the residence of the dukes, of whom
Stanislaus Leczynski, the ex-king Of
Poland, was the last. 1t is considered
one of the most picturesque and best
built cities of France, the surrounding
vineyards adding greatly to the beauty
of its situation.
Since Strassburg was taken by Ger
many, Nancy has risen in Importance,
and now her academy is of high re-
pute Nancy's Ecole Forestiere. or
forest school, is the only nursery Of
the kind in all Europe. Until a few
years ago the British government sent
pupils regularly to this school of for
estry, under the charge of an officer.
Nancy boasts a fine hotel de vile,
which was built in the seventeenth
century, and it is hoped this will es-
cape the fate of Louvain.
In the Grande rue is the Palais
Ducal. Its handsome porch dates from
the beginning of the sixteenth century.
The building illustrates the best form
of late Gothic in France. Within the
ducal palace is another museum, the
Musee Lorraine, but the larger part
of the fine collection was burned by
the Germans when they invaded Nancy
in 1871.
Other Famous Towns.
Ecouen, beyond the forest of Mont.
morency, is noted for it's splendid
chateau, which was built in the six
teenth century, and is typical of the
period. 1t is now utilized by the
French government as a school for
the daughters of the members of the
Legion of Honor of lower rank than
those who are educated at st. Denis.

ARE MEN OR WOMEN, MORE
FAITHFUL TO LOVE?

To keep one sacred flame
Through life unchilled. unmoved;
To love in wintry age the same
AS first in youth We loved;
To feel that We adore
To such a fond excess
That, though the heart would break with
more,
1t could not live with less
When l hear people speak of men
being inconstant ever, to one girl con.
slant never, think it pity that they
have no acquaintance with the noble
men have known. Men who admire
too ardently on short acquaintance are
few and far between. If you intro.
duce gentleman to lady today and
a short while after ask each how they
like the other, the woman will tell you
frankly: Il have met him so few
times that I really cannot form an
opinion. He seems to be pleasant,
therefore agreeable. But men have a
habit of putting their best foot for
ward when they are toeing the mark
of first acquaintance" The man will
tell you: She is a beautiful girl,
with charming personality, but we
have not been thrown in contact suf-
ficiently to determine each others dis
position"
This conveys the idea that before
they are willing to fall in love, men
require something more than beau
tiful face and bewitching manner. A
very youthful man might be caught by
dash and glitter. The older man
knows that is like the froth from
champagne-when the bubble is blown
off the wine is tasteless. When the
supply of brilliant small talk is ex-
hausted girl finds it difficult to be
entertaining.
The man of good judgment wants a
sensible young woman whose judg-
ment, ready sympathy, and good lis
tening qualities make her an agree
able companion at all times and under
all circumstances. Esteem is the
foundation of his love. The oftenef
he meets such a woman, the more
grateful is he for the privilege of
her friendship. When he is lonely
he turns to her for consolation as the
sunflower turns to the sun. Slowly
and by degrees comes the thought to
him that man would do well to
rest his happiness in such fair hands.
When this thought becomes fixed
in his mind the lamp of love has been
lighted in his heart; the steady flame
cannot be easily extinguished. II
aught happens to part them, never
again, of his own volition, would he
fill her place. The hearts of women
are faithful in love, but their natures
crave love fully returned. or course,
there are those who love but once
and forever, There are others OF the
sex who, having known love, will
never afterward consent to live with
out 1t. II the object which inspires 1t
is tickle and from them should go, they
dry their tears and look around for
someone else to comfort them. You
hear great deal about men breaking
women's hearts, but you seldom hear
OF the men who are martyrs on loves
altar. 1t is easy to be faithful in love
IL hearts are truly mated. Weighing
both sides carefully, faithfulness in
love is the uppermost trait in both
sexes. Men hide this characteristic
a little better.

rimony by fraud; led to suppose that
they were wedding a man of exem-
plary habits; that they had gained
true and loving mate.
Also. they declare that they would
as soon have jumped into the fire as
to have become the wife of a man
having sucl a violent disposition had
they but known it, though they kept,
company steadily fer years. AS mat
ter of fact, these women did know the
disposition Of these lovers. If they
did not, it was because they willfully
blinded their eyes to their shortcom-
ings. When lover begins to get will
fully lax in his attentions to his sweet
heart-for instance, having no hesita-
tion in breaking his engagements with
her repeatedly for no special reason,
Indifferent as to whether she likes it
or not-he does not need to wear sign
to the effect that he'll make her a
careless husband.
If his eyes are on every pretty girl
whom they pass, regardless that her
eyes are on him, she doesn't have to
light a dozen candles of her imagina-
tion to see clearly that he'd give her
no end of trouble after marriage by
too much admiration for other women.
If he's always chewing cardamom
seeds and cloves when he comes to
see her, she ought to reason It out
that he does not take them for his
health. If he's on the street with her
and leaves her for the ostensible pur-
pose of getting a cigar in the corner
saloon and comes out wiping his lips,
explaining that they didn't have his
brand, she's a very gullible young
woman not to know that he's had a
drink; and If he cannot refrain from
repeating this operation at least cou-
pie Of times during their walk, it's
the irony of amusement to hear her
complaining in after years that it was
the last thing she ever dreamed of
that she was marrying drunkard to
disgrace her and the children.
So on the women write, naming all
the faults in the calendar. Once in a
while one of these husbands writes
me trying to defend himself from the
charges he knows his wife has made
in letter she has sent out to me. He
says, with blunt frankness: It's all
moonshine that Mary didn't know
what sort of a fellow l was when we
were going together. She knew
came from a long line of ancestors
who loved women, not wisely, but too
well; and with me money burned in
my pocket. 1t was come easy, go
easy. And as for my reason for stop
ping at saloons, she should have had
sense enough to know i did not go
there to pray" Girls should study
their lovers carefully and raise what
complaints they have to make before
marriage, or forever after hold their
peace.

STICK TO 1T
Until Coffee Hits You Hard.

1t Is about as well to advise people
to stick to coffee until they get hit
hard enough SO that they will never

and the principal center of the man

It is interesting to visit one of the
'chateaux de commerce" in Reims, as
the French style the caves or wine
cellars in which the golden beverage
is stored. They are chill and damp
underground warehouses often seven
ty-five feet below the street. The long
lines OF cavernous iabyrinths are
weird and gloomy In spite of their
neatly kept whitewashed walls and
the scrupulous care bestowed upon
every bottle of the precious liquid in
the endless rows and rows of long
dark vaults.
Every Bit Of Good Ground Titled.
Before the war the Argonne region
had the we'll cultivated look so typi.

bordered the well-tilled fields each side
of the beautifully kept roads. which
are such a constant surprise and de-
light to American autoists. In Ar
gonne almost every field has a his
tory, and every acre shows the init
mate association of generations of
ahrifty French peasants with their ma
tive soil. Wherever 1t is possible to
raise crop, a crop is raised, and
every particle of tillable ground is
utilized.
All the little French towns and vii
lagos seem akin. The relationship of
one to the other Is evident, exactly as
in the great cities OF France. Even In
the metropolis of Reims there are

STOP EATING MEAT If
KIDNEYS OR BACK HURT
Take Glass Of Salts to Clean Kid
neys II Bladder Bothers YOU
Meat Forms Uric Acid.

Eating meat regularly eventually
produces kidney trouble in some form
or other, says a wellknown authority,
because the uric acid in meat excites
the kidneys, they become overworked;
get sluggish; clog up and cause all
sorts of distress, particularly backache
and misery in the kidney region; rheu-
matte twinges, severe headaches, acid
stomach, constipation. torpid liver,
sleeplessness, bladder and urinary ir-
ritation.
The moment your back hurts or kid
neys aren't acting right, or II bladder
bothers you. get about four ounces Of
Jad Salts from any good pharmacy;
take tablespoonful in a glass or
water before breakfast for few days
and your kidneys will then act fine.
This famous salts is made from the
acid of grapes and lemon juice, COM
bined with lithia, and has been used
for generations to flush clogged kid
neys and stimulate them to normal
activity; also to neutralize the acids in
the urine so it no longer irritates, thus
ending bladder disorders.
Jad Salts cannot injure anyone;
makes a delightful effervescent lithia-
water drink which millions of men and
women take now and then to keep the
kidneys and urinary organs clean. thus
avoiding serious kidney disease.-Adv.

IN HE Argonne region is a most
important portion of the long
line of conflict now raging all
the way from the inundated
territory between Dixmude and
Nieuport on the North sea, down to
the southeast at Muelhausen and Alt
kirch, near the Swiss frontier The
valleys of the Aire extend Longitude
nally through the Argonne district,
which is a fact of the utmost impor-
tance, as the region forms a natural
eastern France.
Many forests clothe the rocky Ar
gonne plateau, which extends along
the borders of Lorraine and Cham
payne, and forms part of the depart
ment of Ardennes. Strictly speaking,
the Argonne region is about sixty-three
miles in length and between nineteen
and twenty miles wide. 1t stretches
in southeasterly direction between
the Aisne and Meuse rivers, forming
the connecting link between the pla-
teau of Haute Marne and Ardennes.
Its average elevation is estimated to
be about 1,150 feet. Among its num-
erous forests the beautiful forest of
Argonne is especially well known. The
region contains many steep and diff
ficult defiles which materially in
crease their strategic Importance.
These defiles lead from the basins of
the Meuse to that of the Seine, dis
trict already famous from the Argonne
campaign of Dumouriez in 1892.
The Prussians under the duke of
Brunswick were disastrously repulsed
at Valmy, a little village SO miles
southeast of Reims. The battle of
Valmy, fought September 20, 1892, is
often classed as one of the most de-
cisive battles of the world.
Reims Great Commercial Center.
While Reims is principally noted for
it's famous cathedral, it Is also one of
the most important cities of France.
1t lies on the Vesle, in the department
of the Marne, and was originally the
