II is idle to presume hat anything
that we can do here today will have
any material influence In the immedi-
ate settlement Of the greatest war in
history, involving more than half the
people of the civilized world, but we
can raise our voices In earnest protest
against conditions in Europe too terri
bic to contemplate in loss of life, in the
destruction OF property, In the suffer
ing of homeless women and children
and In the effect upon the world at
large. Commercial activity Is checked,
industries are paralyzed, civilization is
being forced backward, human i'm
pulses are being supplanted by the bru-
tai practices of war. The cries of the
innocent have sounded call for relief,
and with dynamic force that call Is
generating sentiment through the
length and breadth of tEis country for
peace. Every one seems sobered and
serious and determined. That one
word has taken on a new significance
new meaning-peace-pe for hui

and onward course Of civilization, peace
and rest and tranquility for the mil

How 4 Rabbit Runs.

The position of the rabbits feet in
running is not understood except by
old hunters. Young spOrtsmen are as
tOnished when, upon examining their
tracks the first time. they find. as they
think. that they always ran backward.
Fol the slight tracks of the forefeet
are really situated behind the larger
and widely separated prints Of
the long hind ones.
AS this animal springs the fore feet
strike the surface near one another.
while the hind feet are spread apart
and brought to the ground some dis
lance in advance. outside of them. AS
these strike. the fore feet. which have
touched the surface but lightly. are
lifted. and the spring is again made
with the hind legs alone. In making
the longest leaps the fore feet strike
in a line. n behind the other, and at
some distance in the rear of the hind
ones. as If they had been again raised
before the latter had touched the sur
face.

HE MISSED A

In spite of their night-and-day ac-
tivity in raiding and destroying the
hundreds of illicit stills that are man.
ufacturing moonshine in the mount
aims, the revenue officers of Georgia,
have found time to report the discov-
cry of an invention, which, had it been
patented by it's d~iscoverer, might have
brought him an immense fortune. The
art of distillation is an ancient one,
yet little progress has been made in
the process since the first "worm" or
twisted tube was used to condense the
vapors which arise from the boiling
liquid. Frank Whatley, a Georgian
conducted a still on his place in the
Blue Ridge mountains. Since prohi-
bition went into effect, the demand for
moonshine has leaped to enormous
proportions. Whatley saw that if
he could increase the output of his
still he would make more money. So
he set to work and constructed a still,
which, according to the officers, I'm
stead of the usual worm or coil, con-
tanned device with a double surface
for ~condensing the ~vaporized alcoholic
fumes. The device is enclosed in an
air space in which the vapors float
and are condensed rapidly as the wat
err passes through the body of the
cylinder. 1t is the most efficient 0 n
densation system we have eve seen
and it is a pity Whatley did not try
to market his device instead of MAX
ing moonshine."
