How They Laugh.

Travellers have noticed how the
laughter Of the different nations va

musical the Germans laugh in a de-

modic and uncertain, the upper class
English guarded and not always genu-
Inc, the lower class English explosive,
the Scottish of all classes hearty and
the Irish rollicking. The Chinese laugh
Is not so expressive as the European.

"Physicalp valuation OF the property
owned by the X l.. S. & @. Ry. Co.
These gentlemen are working under the
jurisdiction of the Finance division Of
the Inter State Commerce commission.
Every railroad in the United States is
now being appraised 10 the same manner.
There are about 60 gangs OF men en-
gagged in the work in various parts of
the United States. They are very thor
ough 10 their work, and take an inven-
tory OF every thing of value owned by
the various railroads. The headquarters
OF this party is in Chicago. They work
on the railroads Of the north during the
summer months, and those of the south,
during the winter. They travel in
special car, fitted up for the convenience
of the work. These men are all courte-
Gus gentlemen to meet and are experts

A new and very practical dress

has been carefully outlined with fine

very tiny porcelain beads.
This style of embroidery is very cas-

lero Jackets are again fashionable such
embroidery might be used to compose

In this feature Mr.. Blaney has shown

TRUE COURAGE

True courage has so little to do
with anger that there always lies
the strongest suspicion against it
where this passion is highest. True
courage is cool and calm. The
bravest of men have the least bull

Of danger are found the most Sc
rene, pleasant and free. Rage, we
know, can make a coward forget
himself and fight. But what is
done in fury or anger can never be
placed to the account Of courage

Officials Look to Possible Com
Wandering Of Quantities Of
Munitions.
TWO CRISES ARE IN VIEW
Both Mexican and European
Situations Responsible For
Bureaus Preparations.

3 Looking to possible commandeering Of
the vast quantities Of war munitions
and materials now being manufactured
by American concerns for European
use and also for the purpose Of finding
out what are the facilities Of American
manufacturers OF war supplies. the
ordnance department Of the War De-
partment has sent out an inquiry for
data from the munition makers.
That the inquiry is made with both
the Mexican and the European situa-
ton in mind is generally believed.
This Government would not COM
mandeer munitions unless compelled to
do so. Therefore, It wants to know
what the situation IL with respect to
the private manufacturers. whether
they are working to their capacity. and
how far. without interfering with ex-
listing contracts. this Government could
rely on the private plants to supple
ment Government arsenals.
Steps To Be Taken.
IN part. the inquiry has relation to the
steps which will be taken this winter to
add to the national preparedness.
The War Department in a statement
said:
Recognizing the fact that the ar
.senals would be unable to produce an ad
equate supply Of war material to meet
an emergency Of war. 1t has been the
practice Of the Government, both in
time Of peace as well as In war. to pur-
4r0vr1 81 49,
considerable part Of the war material
currently required. This policy makes
It necessary for the ordnance depart
ment to obtain from these establish
ments from time to time information as
to their ability and capacity to produce
various classes of such material.
such extraordinary changes and un-
OF American manufacturers have re.
suited from the demands for material
BY the warning nations Of Europe par
for the Of certain
necessary for the ordnance department
recently to increase correspondingly its
activity to keep in touch with this In
dustrial development.
u, -. - Inquiry Needed. ''''.'
1T is probab able that the expansion
noted has not ceased but officials be-
lieve that a stage has been reached
which renders desirable a general in
auiry as to the manufacturing facili-
ties now in existence. and with a view
to obtaining information on the sub
ject the ordnance department is send
ing out letters Of inquiry to a number
OF manufacturers. accompanied by
forms designed to facilitate the making
Of replies.
. "The War Department expressly
states that It does not now contcm-
plate purchasing any of the material
referred to. as 1t has no special funds
which may be used for such q purpose,
No special inquiry is deemed necessary
for the expenditure. of the limited funds
from current appropriations which are
at the bureaus disposal"
