EXPLAINING Gravitation,s LAW

If you ask a scientific man why a
stone falls to the ground he will tell
you that he doesn't know. Not long
ago he would have replied that it fell
to the ground because the earth and
stone attract one another. This is very
much the same as saying that an I'M
supported stone falls to the ground
because as has been ascertained by
frequent experiments, an unsupported
stone falls to the ground. Scientific

Lincoln watched the old mans grief
for minute and then exclaimed:

goes"
Then he wrote:
dob White is not to be shot until
further orders from me-"
Why" said the old man sadly, Il
thought it was a pardon. You may
order him shot next week"

The woman was the wife of one Of

husband her husband was.

There is no quarrel about the ex-

are not placed on the Swedish prohib-
itory list--although England may think
that the export is excessive. But may
say, without violating the secrecy OF
the negotiations which are still under
way that the chief obstacle is the
question of the exceptions which we
are bound to make to our prohibitory
export list in the way of special Ii
censes granted to Germany. In or

The old gentleman was little con,

vorce. In fact, he was very pleasant
about it.
But the thing that did worry hin:
was that he wanted to be sure to
have the jury remove his disabilitie )
at the same time, so that he could
marry again as soon as he wanted to.
The court stared and the jury grin

decided to grant Mr.. Camps request,

it, "Mr. Camps disabilities were re-

IF she permits the transit of sup
plies between England and Russia and
joins in any attempt to prevent the
transit of supplies to Germany, she is
becoming an important base of sup
plies for the allies and is at the same
time really entering into the war
against Germany. Sweden's modest
desire is to be allowed to carry on
her normal industry and to observe a
strict neutrality-which means helping
neither side in military or indus
trial way, to the exclusion of the other.
In this uoint of view she differs with
the United States, which is supplying
England alone. Sweden does not con

at is logical, therefore, that we
should hold up supplies destined for
Russia while England's stoppage OF
our imports of raw materials interferes
with our industry and trade with Ger
many. We are sorry that Russia il
forced to wait for her supplies which.
have accumulated here, but while our
ships are being held in English prize
courts, we think the action entirely
justifiable.

publication of such figures would lead
to obvious difficulties.
Moreover, we cannot guarantee, as
England would like to have us do, that
supplies will not under any conditions
be sent into Germany. Not only would
we suffer from not being able to get
what we need from Germany, but we
would then be partisan to England.
"As to the assertion that our i'm
ports have increased beyond our own
capacity for consumption since the
beginning of the war, this is not gem
orally true. Our poor harvest and
our inability to get grain from Russia
and other supplies from Germany has,
of course, increased our exports from

ognize England's right to interfere
