To the slave girl who attended

STOP RECKLESS DRIVING.


Marylands automobile operators
are prohibited from taking single
drink while at the wheel Of a car.
Commissioner Roe, whose depart
ment has this matter in hand, says:
Il have decided to put an end to
reckless driving. and especially to
reckless driving superinduced by
strong drink, If it is possible for me
to do so.
ITO accomplish my purpose, 1t will
be necessary for me to refuse to dis
tinguish between people who drink
little and those who drink much.
shall, therefore, in the future revoke
the license of every automobile driver
who is brought before me If it can
be shown that the accused has been
drinking while operating his car.
This, in my judgment. is the only
safe rule to follow. l do not wish
to pose as an authority on drink or
what constitutes drunkenness. l see
no ray of hope in so-called sobriety
tests
Therefore. | must conclude that a
chauffeur or car owner who has taken
one drink is as guilty as the motor
operator who technically is consid-
cred full. / am vested with full au-
thority by law to forfeit licenses for
such offenses, and 7 certainly shall"

PRODUCTION DECREASING.

During the first eight months of tn.
fiscal year 1914-15 the production OF
beer in the United States has de
creased more than three million bar

only natural, is assigned by some tc
the increase of prohibition territory;

TRAGEDIES CAUSED BY LOVE
Many Cases or Record Of Ruined ivs. Women as We'll as Men Have

Love troubles have been the cause of many curious actions on the mart of men and women who have suffered dis appointment in that direction. A curi. ous house owned by Doctor Phenie of London was in class by itself, it's ex. terror being ornamented with eilt statues. It was built by the doctor for ms prospective bride who died few hours before she was to have been married. In the extensive grounds. too, masses of carved stone could he seen.

 women as we'll as men have become hermits when loves young dream has come to an untimely end. In the eigh- teenth century there died woman who had not left her room for 30 years. owing to a love disappointment. and Just few years later a similar case was brought to light. In the second in. stance the lady had vowed that she would never see the light of the sun again" owing to being tilted in love. She religiously kept her VOW, living in a darkened room till the end of her days.
 This country has produced martyrs on the altar of blighted affection. For more than twenty years an old fellow shut himself up in a miserable room in Pittsburgh At last, when it was de. cided that he should be arrested on the ground of insanity. it required the united strength Of four constables to secure him.
 The police, on searching his house. were astonished to find thousands of dollar note ;. The grate was filled with silver dollars, the furniture was stuffed with them, whilst jars and bottles were filled to the brim with money. So much wealth was found that wagon had to be brought to convey it to the bank, where 1t was found to amount to over $5O,0O0.

QUEER USE OF GRAMOPHONE
nat instrument Is Not Designed Merely for Amusement Has
 Been Proved

The gramophone is sometimes put to strange uses. The leader of an Af- IICah hunting expedition, who set oilt on motor trip from the Cape to Cairo. recently used it as decoy for tigers ana hlppopotami. In tiger hunting it IS usual to tether a lamb to a tree: US oleatlngs attract the tiger within reach or the hunters. Before leav- Ing England, the explorer had some records made by bleating lambs, and says a writer in Answers, he tried them on the unsuspecting tigers of the African jungle with considerable sue. cess.
 The record makers gained one of their greatest triumphs when they sue ceeded in getting good nightingale ana blackbird records. The chief diff nculty was the objection that the Dlrds had to the sounds of the re- cordlng machine. The clever men got round that by setting up a dummy recording machine, in the horn of which they put some of the birds ia. yorte food
 When bird entered the horn to get the food the clockwork was set in motion. The little creatures soon grew accustomed to the sound, and so, after much tedious and discour. aging labor successful records were made. These records are selling in thousands all over the world.
 The gramophone is also of service in more serious and more scientific undertakings. Records of all dialects and languages spoken in Great Britain have been made and preserved in the British museum for the benefit of posterity. The people of the thir- ueth century will know by the help of these records just how Manx and Gaelic sounded, and how the cockney lingo differs from braid Scots" Sev- eral of the universities also have col. lections of the same kind.-Youth's Companion

All art is matter of nature or life acted upon by man. part taken out of it's accidental surroundings and given artistic form. At either side of the field of true art is a waste place. where art ceases to have beauty. And the waste on the one side is reached when the artist becomes so enamored of life that he forgets to interpret, to give artistic form, and only brings forth d photographic image; while the waste on the other side is reached when the artist perfects his form but forgets to put life into it.-Sheldon Cheney.
