 Need of Better National Defense.
 Apropcs to this subject, it may be said we should create and maintain an adequate army and navy. We are deficient in this respect. We have an effective navy, but it's capacity Is much below the standard that should be maintained. There have been differ cnces of opinion in congress when ever the question of eniarging the army and navy has been presented for discussion, and no doupt all those giving expression to their conclusions have intended to be honest. However, 1t Is possible that not uncommonly a member of congress has been willing tc, vote for large appropriation to provide local improvement in which he was particularly interested and at the same time has opposed the build ing of an additional ship or the equip ment Of another regiment.
 We should especially maintain a better navy-one equal, at least, in every respect to that of any other mutton. So far as the army is con cerned, a large force of reserves, properly trained with adequate SUD- plies for use in times of emergency, such as General Wood and others ad- vocate, would probably be sufficient. But we should be prepared at all times to, protect our borders on the sea and also our commerce wherever 1t extends. The nation with an in- adeni1ntA navy must always labor at a great disadvantage with respect to its commerce in times of trouble, or even Iii times Of peace. The pru;ection of our property and our business Is es- scntial and can cnly be secured if We maintain large navy. which shall in cirdc the most efficient personnel and

 The Business Outlook.
 I will add few word1 in regard to present business conditions. As you know, during the last three years I have not been especially encouraged as to the immediate future but as to the long future I have been a great cptimist, for reasons which have been given from time to time. Assuredly we may build our hopes and expecta- ticns on the opportunities which this country offers Is seems to me at the moment the outlook for improvement in our lines of activity are better than they have been for more than a year. This is undoubtedly in part the result of increased expectations at far prices, due to the European wars, but in my opinion also because of a change in sentiment toward business, which now SC ems apparent. The captain of in- 6ustry will again become popular in the United States, and this sentiment has been brought about py the efforts of business men to satisry the public ] in regard to their reasonable demands. The individual, or aggregation of in- 1ividuals, or the nation, whose stan- dard of conduct conforms to the | golden rule will on the average secure i he largest pecuniary success.
 The clouds of distress, suspicion and | hostility are breaking. in the rift we nay see the sunlight of better things md better conditions.

from Belgium. That the German Off
cials were within their rights none
viii deny, but as the detail of the
dreadful affair, together with the spir-
it of the victim, are brought TO light,
the feeling persists that the iron rule
of war should have yielded to degree.
When the final announcement was made
to her that she should be shot she said
calmly:
| have no fear nor shrinking. have
seen death so often that 1t IS not
strange or fearful to me. / thank God
for this ten weeks of quiet before the
end. My life has always been hurried
and full of difficulties; this time the
rest has been great mercy. They
have all been very kind TO me here,
| But this / would say, standing as | do
in the view of God and eternity | real
ize patriotism is not enough. must
have no hatred or bitterness toward
anyone.
There are certain instincts that are
deep and persistent to disobey which
does violence to our common humanity.
We only wish that those instincts had
been needed in the ease of Miss Cavell,
that she had been dealt with little
more tenderly, that grim war had been
something less than inexorableness
when it faced this woman who died so
beautifully. Dead? She shall live
forever and her last message viii be
engraved on the imperishable pages of
history.

TWISTED MESSAGES

He was telling off on his fingers the
main points of his errand, when, turn
ing a corner, alas boy on the run
drove him directly off his feet, lin
gered for neither apology nor explana-
ton, and poor Marvin went headlong
into the ditch. He arose wrathful and
disordered, his wits all astray. There
was little willingness or system as to
the frame OF mind with which he blum
dered through his double errand;

game OF marbles with some playmates
and forgot to even claim hat other
cookie from his pretty : .er. Then

grown out of the episode of the double
message Marvin had got mixed up.
When he arrived at the home of Mr.

HOW BRASS PINS ARE MADE
Process Is an intricate One, but the
Work Is All Done by Ma
chinery.

To make a pin in an intricate pro-
cess, but it is all done by machin.
cry. A spool of brass wire running
on steel posts is fed into jaws which
bite off the length of the pin. A small
length is left to make the head, which
is formed by three rapid blows of
hammer which moves forward one
twentieth of an inch at each blow, The
pin then drops to an incline in which
are grooves deep enough to admit the
shank, but not the head. AS the pin
moves down its point comes in con-
tact with a cylinder with a file-like
surface, which causes the pin to turn
round so that it is sharpened on all
sides. 1t next drops into a receptacle,
where a layer of pins is placed, and
then layer of Underground tin until
the pan is filled. Heat and chemi-
cal solution coat the pins with tin.
They are then polished in a barrel
revolving rapidly They are placed
in the paper by a machine. which
SEXES the paper and crimps it into
divisions as wide as the length of the
pins. The bottom of the box is made
OF square steel bars, which allow the
shanks, but not the heads cf the pins
70 pass through. The bars are in mo-
uon, thus shaking down the pins un.
III row is formed, wsen they are
clamped in place by the bars. A foid
OF paper is pushed up against them
ana pressed into place This is re-
peated until the paper is full, when an
other takes its place. 1t all sounds in
trleate' but, being done by machinery,
II Is rapid and cheap, else we could
not have the billions of pins that we
waste.

face OF the lovely girl In the arm chair

face reminded him of a beautiful rose.
lie longed to kiss those dropping eye
lids.
Mr.. Dunscombe started back as q
mufied figure darted around the side
OF the house.
Hey, you!" spoke quick, cautious
tones. take this stun and keep a close
lookout The girl is doped, and it's q
chance to ransack the rest of the bed

The speaker thrust a small bag into
the grasp of the astounded Mr.. Duns-
combe, dashed away and the startled
reverend woke up
why, it's a burglary he gasped.

dashed up the steps The screen door
was hooked on the inside. Mr.. Duns-
combe tore 1t open with a wrench,
darted across the floor to the tele-
phone and took up the receiver.
Central" he shouted, send the pc
lice at once to Mr.. Trips home. 1t

eddy.
Then with distracted look at the
helpless Leonie, he ran at baseball
club belonging to Marvin standing up
in corner of the room. seized it and
ran out on the porch.
But his cafl had been heard. He
noted a racket as of some one coming
down the stairs. Then a sharp whis-
tie, and two sinking forms made for
the street and disappeared amid the
night shadows.
All the thoughts OF Reverend Mr..
Dunscombe were for Leonie now. He
returned to the ell room. There was
q dead faint Of chloroform in the air.
He threw up all the windows. He
dashed into the kitchen and returned

Soon someone would come, he felt

nearer-nearer. He could not help 1t!
The tempting lips we're so close! He
pressed one fervent kiss upon them,
and then drew back aghast at his inn
pulsiye temerity his conscience
named 1t "treachery."
There was a knock at the door, and
there he confronted Lettie Bond, gaz-
ing in with wonderfilled eyes. Had
she seen that tender caress? Oh, he
hoped mott And then he stumblingly
explained the situation.

you from Leonie," said Lettie, land

The police arrived just as Leonie
had reused her dear friend from her
insensibility. Then it was discovered
that the little bag given by the bur
glar to Mr. Dunscombe held all the

''You-you won't tell?" he flushed
and fioundered, as he walked home
with Lettie.
