For three months the youngster
lowered between life and death in
bed His left elbow, shoulder and
knee were hurt, his chest crushed and
his abdominal organs had been
bruised seriously. The doctors cut
open his body and removed part of his
intestines.
The boy recovered in measure
just enough to get around and go to
school part of the time. But some Of
the hurts which he suffered in his
abdomen can never be remedied, the
doctor says.
His father, Edward Bonneau, filed
suit against Mandel Bros. and Atty

''It is business proposition with
the stores. They pay insurance to
indemnity companies which hire
shrewd lawyers to settle all personal

right out of the hands of the depart

"They have to pay insurance
whether or not they buy tenders, SO
it is cheaper for them to try to kill

There are tenders passed by the in

THE glory Of Polands past and
the hope OF her future are Cracow
and Lemberg. for ii was the former
that was her capital In the yesterday
OF history and the latter that Is her
capital today and which would be
her capital tomorrow were Polish
dreams to come true. In Cracow,
the great city of Polaud's past, the
royal palace stin stands: but it is
used as a barracks and not as the
home Of king,
The cathedral is now the Nalhal-
Ia Of its departed greatness, for there
sleep the kings and the heroes from
the Jagellons to Kosciuzko Not far
away is the Kociuskoberg, one OF the
most remarkable memories ever rear
ed By the hand of mana huge
mound OF earth brought by loyal
Poles from every battlefield in the
world consecrated with Polish blood.
THE country around Cracow is
flat and is devoted almost wholly to
small farming and trucking. The
peasants dress in white jackets and
blue hreeches and wear iackboots;
their women folk. with large, bright
shawls and picturesque headdress,
brighten and give spirit to the country
side.
From Cracow to Lemberg the ira
veler encounters good land; it is fair
~ level and entirely innocent of fen
ces. boundary stones marking partS
lines. and tethers or herdsmen keep
ing livestock where it belongs
The same methods of agriculture
that we used in the United states be"
fore the days OF the self-binder and
the grain drin are stin in force in
that region.
1T is in Lemberg that the only
Polish dominated legislative assembly
in existence holds its sessions, for
Lemberg is the capital of Galcia and
the Poles, both because of their
shrewd political ability and their nu-
merieal weight, control the Galieian
legislature in the face of their rivals
the Ruthenians of east Galicia. The
city of Lemberg is largely modern
compact nucleus surrounded by
scattered suburbs,
While Galicia is almost wholly -
agricultural region. and while larse
percentage of that agriculture is car
ried on in the oldtime way. there
are some few manufacturing neigh
borhoods and Industrial districts Dis
tilleries occupy first place among the
industrie. and there are many beet
sugar and tobacco factories. Petra
leum springs abound along the Car
pathians and some of the towns in
this region grow from small villages
to modern Beaumonts between New
| Year and Christmas.

THIS MAY ENTERTAIN
MY HEARTS DESIRE.

(From the Argonaut.)
Ny hearts desire is nothing great;
Say just a little eight-by-eght
Log cabin in the northern woods
Where can wallow in my moods
And wade around in solitudes
And rubber boots;
Free from excitement, noise and
dudes,
Yes. that just suits,
Ny hearts desire is nothing much
A little yenison, and such
Sweet trout as markets neer Afford
A little time to praise the Lord
My own peculiar way, for these
Simplicities that ever please
And never pail
The mind, as in the birchen trees
The thrushes call
My hearts desire is nothing large;
The open sky. the river marge;
The sovndless woods, the empty
shore;
Pine needles on the parlor floor.
And hazy lazy hours Of life
Just breathing air;
One couldn't ask much less--no
strife,
Peace everywhere.

RINnNI,

Among the seaports recently visit
ed by the Austrian fleet Rimini. an
cient Arminum, the Adriatic seaport
opposite the diminuitive republic Of
San Marino, is city of typical ital-
ian charm, place intimately asso-
ciated with the the big events of early
history, fascinating for the strange
romances lived within its bounds, and
filled with memories of those absorb
ing contributions that go TO make up
the Italian temperament.
This little port forms the subject CT
today's study of war geography issued
by the National Geographic Society at
Washington
"Rimini, just below Pola, the Aus
trian naval base across the Adriatic,
once an Umbrian colony, then an
Etruscan port, and later acquired By
Rome as a base against the Gauls, is
a picturesque monument to the past
rather than a place of present large
Importance,
When growing. Rome met Garth
age for the mastery of the maritime
world, Rimini became an important
naval port. Here was stationed a
Quaester of the fleet, and from here
the merchants of Dido's city were
harried on their ventures through the
Adriatic .and IOnian seas.
The power of Rome reached out
through this port for the control OF
the Mediterranean, of earths one
great mercantile sea. Rimini is no
longer a point Of significant strategic
value to the power on the italian pen
insula. but in Roman days it was a
vital element in the plan by which

THE FLYING BOAT IN WAR

- N the subject OF national
VI defense Glenn H. Curtis
who knows something
about aviation believes the
greatest opportunity for the fu-
ture lies in use of flying boats
or seaplanes.
Here is an interesting state
ment from the noted inventor
In my opinion the great
est field for the develop
ment Of America defen-
sive forces is with the fly
ing boat or seaplane. The
underseas crafts have
demonstrated their i'm
portance, but the aircraft
has two distinct advant-
ages.
First, it has four times
the speed of the subma-
rine.
Second, its range of
vision is almost unlimited
as compared with that of
the submarine.
1t is, therefore, of great
est value for reconnais-
ance, while with incresed
weight-carrying capacity
and devices for accurate
bomb dropping it will be
as efficient as the subma-
rine for offensive purpOs-
es at the present time.
And again, aircraft can
be used to great advant-
age in protecting large
ships against submarine
attacks.
With reference to prepared.
ness Curtiss is the type of man
to be consulted. Preparedness
for war is not preparedness
unless it is up-to-date. What
good would it do this country
to have a vast number of bat
tleships if little submarines or
seaplanes could come along
any time and sink them?
The success Of the submarine
in the present war seems to as
sure its supremacy over the
battleship and cruiser. Will
the flying boat supplant the
diver?

AN ELECTRIC LAW OF
GRAVITY

v as Jefferson Jackson
See to tell us that we
have been wrong all the time
about the law OF gravity.
Things do not attract other
things with force exactly
proportionate to their mass.
They attract in proportion to
the number of atomic electrical
currents which go flowing
around them in the same direc-
ton.
In an age which rides, talks
sees and hears by electrity, this
new scientific proclamation
does not come upon us with the
tumultuousnesS of a shock. The
evolution of X-rays, of ultra
purple light forces, of radio
activities and various wireless
marvels have taught us long
since, in the presence of any
fresh evocation, merely to Won
der what next. Prof. Sees
theory of gravity happens to
be next at the moment.
The new proposition detracts
nothing from the peculiar glory
of Sir Isaac Newton's falling
apple. Beyond doubt that APP
pie did fall and did start a
train of thought which became
a long One-centuries long, in
fact. If we believe the Cali
fornia professor, however, it
fell not because the earth had
a greater pull in the mass but
because the earth is girdled by
more of those electric myster-
les with which our Edisons and
Marconis love to play.
! What difference does it
make, anyway, the man with
no love of science in his heart
may ask, so long as the solar
system stays as it is put? But
the man with imagination has
no place for so sordid and cyni-
cal a thought. The gigantic
scheme of electric control
which makes this new gravity
idea possible will interest him.
What prevents those fluid
runaways such as sometimes
perplex all hands in trolly
power house? And what will
happen if some day a tremen-
dous short circuit carries its
consequences to the whole So
lar outfit.-New York World.
! The kaiser is astonishing the
English with his bold cam
paigns; it is about time for
John Bull to really get into the
war.

1t seems easy for strikers to
win their point when their la
Dor is essential for war pur-
poses.

think a dog should rave a trial
