consequence to him when in that state what was the hue of his companions complexion.
 Most of the other Thaws had sur plus of apparent dignity in place Of his own excess of vitality. Harry K. Thaw, half brother of William Ills father, was incapable of behaving so vulgarly in pub lie. and such scenes deeply humiliated him.
 The youths capacity for liquor was astounding. Here is an instance. AS he entered the Allegheny Country Club one afternoon where a crowd of his asso- ciates were gathered one of them chal- lenged him to a drinking bout. William Thaw III. was entirely agreeable His adversaries entered the arena in relays. When three successive challengers had rendered themselves unconscious, young Thaw was still able to go on. The waiter declared that Thaw had consumed sixty eight brandy-andsodas.
 His family were in despair They had tried everything they could think of to divorce him from drink, and all efforts had failed Now they sent him to Mercy Hospital an institution largely bene- f1ted by the fortunes of the young mans mother and grandmother. He found him. self in ward with fifty or more other men whose principal business in life was drinking. The Sisters gave them but termilk-nothing stronger. The sight of that buttermilk set Williams always active mind going.
 He was permitted to take a walk every day, accompanied by an attendant. One day he returned carrying great tin bucket filled to the brim with butter milk. The Sisters were highly pleased. Half an hour later the alcoholic ward was in state of riot. Thaw and all the other patients were disorderly. How they had obtained the whiskey was a mystery Thaw's walks were not cur tailed, however, and for three successive nights the alcoholic ward of Mercy Hos pital bore out it's description with ven geance
 Then the mystery was cleared up The irrepressible William had bribed hi! attendant visited an accommodating tin smith, had made to his order hug tin bucket with false bottom, whicl concealed under his generous gifts o buttermilk enough whiskey to "paralyze a whole inebriate asylum.
 Mercy Hospital had no further use fo William Thaw III.

Thaw, he transferred his a tentions to New York, London and Pari' Starting with the American metropolis he proceeded to enlarge the technique ( his chosen art.

 "First. you've got to stop drinking, was the refrain of Miss Bradley's answer ing song
 William was ready to stop anything except loving Gladys Virginia. As evi- dence of his good intentions he stopped drinking for six months. Miss Bradley considered, and suggested that he make it unanimous" William appealed to his delighted mother, who sent to Miss Bradley this note:
 "To Miss Gladys V. Bradley, bride to-be:
 q hereby promise that If you marry my son he will be good. model husband; that he will not return to his former bad habits; that he will not drink intoxicants, and will be good member of society.
 MRS. WILLIAM THAW IL"
 Miss Bradley was convinced, though her sister, Mrs. Anthony J. Drexel Riddle, still retained some reasonable doubts about the possibility of permanently re- forming William. On December l, 1910, they were married. Williams mother presented him with delightful home worth $25O,O00, located on Sewickley

while she produced delicate pink polish on his spatulate nails.
 When William saw the manicurists customer hand her silver half dollar he blushed for his sex. Then he took the vacant chair and offered his own hand for sympathetic treatment. When tine job was finished he gave the astonished girl a hundred-dollar bill-and walked away with a sense of having balanced the scales of justice.
 The pretty manicurist was absent from her post the next day. The hotel man agement reported her ill.
 William got the idea into his head that New York chorus girls were underpa1d, and therefore lacking in proper nourish- ment. He confided in Oscar at the Wal dorf-Astoria, and Oscar, for the reason able amount of something like $5,OOo, helped William properly feed and other wise nourish twenty of the reigning stage beauties.

Egypt amused him much It appears that he amused Egypt, for presently the Thaw family were involved in more or less expensive controversy over the claim of dusky beauty of that country that William had married her. Egyptian women are notoriously imaginative.

- REAT is Dan Cupid of the Olym-
 = pians-and Pittsburghers.

@ REAT is Dan Cupid or the Olym- r pians-and Pittsburghers. 0 Formerly, up to a few years ago, neither Olympians nor Pittsburghers con- sidered the possibility of William Thaw iii, getting on the water wagon If ac- cident had landed him aboard that justly esteemed vehicle 1t would have been simply huge joke. The idea of his get ting on voluntarily and staying on would have been laughed to scorn
 But they were forgetting about Cupid. One day Cupid got busy after his time- honored custom and the seemingly i'm possible happened
 Something else has happened. Just as Cupid rewarded the reformed town scapegrace of Pittsburgh with marriage to a beautiful girl who believed in him, so he has rewarded her for her love and faith by gaining honors for himself and the whole Thaw family which could be gained only by sober man. They have received the news that for gallant ser vices as a pilot in the French military aviation corps he has been commended in army orders, decorated with the Mill tary Cross and promoted to be sergeant all this after five months service as private in the American Corps of the Foreign Legion.
 Thus is reversed the familiar, distress ing spectacle of a girl marrying drunk ard to reform him, and living to repent amid the ruins of her illusions Thus 1t is proved that the same sort Of Drawn and courage and public usefulness which enabled the original William Thaw to win a great fortune and an honored name still exist in his direct line. And. at last, a pleasant chapter is added to the several unpleasant ones in the Thaw family history.
 The psychologists who specialize in juvenile delinquency will tell you that one of the chief causes of misconduct in boys is surplus of energy, physical and mental, which is provided with no proper outlet That was the case with William Thaw III. A big, hearty chap, tireless in mind and body, he had nothing upon which to expend his energies except the task of scattering an income of something like $35,000 year.
 He entered upon tndt task Wiln en thusiasm several years before he reached his majority. He loved jovial company and was most democratic in his choice oi companions Especially after he discov cred that he could easily drink his clut companions under the table while re maining steady on his own legs mil lionaire fellow drmkard was no mor' congenial to him than an ordinary work ing man Of equal convival talents Nor than once in those days he scandailze his family and friends by roaring ms wa down Pittsburgh's choicest avenue arm-i arm with a day laborer-and it was of D

say out west of Pittsburgh. On the ship sailing for New York the celebrated traveller, Doe" Owen-nector Of Laws (of draw poker)-helped him while away the nautical hours. These services were said at the time to have cost him $20O,00o. The Thaw family were moved to act William and his ultimate fortune of S2.5O0 900 must be saved His mother Mrs. Elizabeth Thaw; his sister. Mrs. Bird Thaw Collins, and the latters hus- band, Henry l.. Collins, joined in petition to the courts to have William declared habitual drunkard and incom- petent to manage his estate.
 Highly offended, William sought the solitudes of Watch Hill, Mass, where he came face to face with Gladys virginia Bradley-and Dan Cupid.
 At last Williams superabundant VI tality had found worthy outlet. He adopted new motto, and proceeded to act upon it with the utmost vigor Adapting famous Robin Hood refrain, this was the motto:

 William Thaw, IT, was truly re- generated. After the honeymoon no rolled I'D his sleeves and went to work. looking after his business interests ana assisting his mother in her many charities. Having still some unused energy. he took up aviation as sport. He found that whiskey as stlmulans could not compare with the ozone oi tug upper atmosphere; his capable nanos anv normally level head had found tneir ldeeA avocation. William Thaw's record as 2 man-bird is familiar to all patrons "nu admirers of that sport.
 He invented stabilizer which rendereo an aeroplane all but fool proof" He wal one of the leaders in making mecnanlcai waterfowl of the airship, and became one of it's most expert pilots in this country.

 Ha made daring flights over the Ger man trenches. Several times he was re- ported killed. The special exploit which won promotion and the Military Cross for him was undertaken as volunteer to gain definite information about a certain developing German operation. The feat was an extremely dangerous one. Thaw flew along the German front in terrible rain of shells. Several times his craft was seen to waver. He accomplished his purpose and returned to the French lines. The wings of his aeroplane were riddled, even his garments were torn with rag ments of exploding shells.
 How the French Government recog- nized his services and valor is told above. To-day the erstwhile town drunkard of Pittsburgh is that city's most applaudeo hero The Thaw family is in an esaisSy of pardonable joy and pride :.

 The+ feeling of optimism in London is enhanced by the political effect which the successes of the allies appear to have had on the Balkan states. -Des- patches from Sofia indicate that Bull garian diplomats are eager to convince the allies that mobilization of the army was not prompted by hostile motives. The latest official news from Petro- grad is interpreted here showing that the Russians are distinctly in 8 better position. This seems to be true even in the region of Dvinsk,' where Field Marshal Won Hindenburg- has concentrated his efforts,l perhaps at the expense of the southern front. The German attack now seems to be slack ening.
 Notwithstanding +he successes of the allies, England is not blinded to the fact that it will be light task to push the Germans from positions hon eycombed with trenches. Now that the allies have passed to the offensive they have before them a. problem the serious nature of which is fully recog- nized here.
