Although she has concentrated an
army along the Austrian border and a
navy within striking distance of the
Adriatic, Italy is still employing every
means available which may lead TO a
peaceful settlement with Austria of the
question of territorial concessions. Ad-
vices from Rome indicate that even
should Italy become embroiled in the
war she will not strike for some time. II
is believed in Rome that the decisive
struggle among the nations now at war
will not begin before early summer,
which would allow Italy considerable
interval in which to decide upon a poll

memento of q noteworthy achieve

before the war broke out.
Father Was Gunsmith.
Little known as he is, Browning
has been a gun inventor all his life,
a born one. His father was Jonathan
Browning, a native of Tennessee, who
moved to Iowa in the early thirties
and conducted a gun store and tink-
er's shop near Kanesville on Mosquito
creek. In 1852 Jonathan Browning
crossed the great plains with an OK
team, a three months journey, and
settled in Ogden.
In his fathers shop in Ogden John
M. Browning made his first gun at
the age of thirteen from iron taken
from his fathers scrap heap. In 1879,
when twenty-five, Browning obtained
his first patent 1t was for breech-
loading rifle. In 1884 he perfected his
famous repeating rifle, and in 1895
the box magazine which was used by
the United States army in the war
with Spain.
His name was unheralded in con-
nection with all these inventions, be-
cause in every case Browning sold
his patents. 1t was the name of the
maker, not that of the inventor which
became famous.
How He Used "kick."
Browning's friends tell an interest
ing story in connection with the dis
covery. The inventor, they say, en-
tered his shop one morning carry
ing a rifle and a block of wood
through which he had bored hole
the size of As bullet. Fastening
the block to the floor, he set up the
rifle so that the muZZle just touched
the hole in the wood.
He explained that if the idea he had

Peculiar Case of Oklahoma Boy
Again Draws Attention.
Is Rapidly Regaining His Normal
Health and the "Ossified" Condi-
ton of His Body Is Dis
appealing.

Enid. Okla.-Merle Rea, the thlr-
teen-year-old son of Mr.. and Mrs. r.
A. Rea of near Enid, Okla, who at
tracted nationwide attention a few
months ago as the 'ossified' boy, is
rapidly regaining his normal health
and the ''ossified" condition Of his
body is disappearing. This boy was
afflicted in a way that was a puzzle to
all the physicians who examined him,
and there was never a man for long
time who would even attempt dag
nosis of the disease. The boy was al
most human rock
Some time before the disease made
it's appearance he received fall from
a second-story building, striking on
his back and shoulders. He appar-
emily was not seriously injured at the
time. but some time later his mother,
in washing him, noticed that there was
a hard place on the back of his neck.
Soon this became very noticeable and
began to spread. The boys body was
literally petrifying. His skin became
so hard from the top of his head to
the soles of his feet that he was not
able to move around at all. Then the
disease began to spread to his internal
organs and the flesh of his body. His
tongue became hardened so that he
couldn't move it at all.
About that time physicians all over
the western part of the United States
became interested in the case and a
number of clinics were held and the
lad examined in every way. However.
according to them, there was never
parallel case before in the history OF
medicine.
Finally treatment was taken up
on the supposition that the lad had
been injured in the fall and that there
was a spinal cord pressure that was
in some way tying up the muscular
action to an extent that the part OF
the body affected was simply dying.
Apparently the guess was correct,
for the body responded to the treat
ment, and the lad now is almost well.
His disease in the first place and
then the apparent cure, form one of
the most amazing cases science has

OCTOGENARIAN Is A WALKER
New Jersey Man Attributes Almost
Perfect Health to Daily
Exercise.

HammuIlton, N. J.-William Berns-
house, who is known as "the grand old
man of Hammonton,' attributes his
almost perfect health to the fact that
he is an enthusiastic pedestrian and
that he never INDUCED in Intoxicating

the forties, at a time when there were
less than a dozen. houses in what now
is the second largest municipality in
Atlantic county.
Although in his eighty-second year,
Bernshouse averages from fifty to
sixty miles of walking each week.
About a year ago he was one of a
party of surveyors who inspected and
appraised the damage done to a tim

were burned over by fire, supposedly

MARK GRAVES WITH NAPLES
plan Proposed to Honor Canada's
Dead Who Have Fallen in
Flanders.

How to mark permanently the rest

dian soldiers who have fallen in Flan'

which the people of the dominion have
given considerable thought.
From a member of the Overseas
club comes the happy suggestion that
since the maple leaf is the emblem OF
Canada, maple trees be planted over
the isolated graves and along the
roads leading to the cemeteries. He
has already sent millions of seeds to
France, and is to send more.
The species chosen is the sugar
maple, and so France in time Will
have a beautiful memorial of the
