HUNGER CAUSED BOYS TO STEAL
-GIVEN ANOTHER CHANCE.
Two boys in the boys court
charged with larceny stole because
they were hungry and homeless, but
one had practical ideas of what to
take and the other ones taste was
esthetic.
Frank Nan, 10, unable to find work
in Cleveland, came to Chicago six
days ago. He is a sign painter and
had the promise of job on Monday,
but meanwhile his funds ran out
In the Saratoga hotel he met a boy
who was willing to chum with him
and the boy had a sweetheart for
whom he wished to buy a gift, so the
two lads wandered into Stevens
store and, while the chum examined
gold IOckets, Frank, without a penny
to pay even his nights lodging, much
less buy meal, yielded to the temp
tation to take two of the gold IOckets
and was caught.
Stevens haven't the MacGuire &
White detective agency. They have
a private agency of their own The
lad told his story in court and Stew
ems detective told Judge Dolan that
anything the court decided to do with
the boy under the circumstances
would be entirely acceptable to Stew
ems. The boy was placed on proba-
ton for six months, as it was his first
Offense.
Henry Carp, II, has no home. His
parents were divorced ten years ago

fAREDERIC HARRISON, BRITISH PREDICTED WAR

Frederic Harrison, the British Posi- twist philosopher and English disciple of Comte, was born in London s4 years ago today, Octo IS. 1891. In spite of his great age he made a journey to the battle one In France only few months ago, and on his return he made some caustic comments on the optimism of his eountrynen-t IN ot that ever heard from any one in France a touch of depression or doubt of the issue, much less complaints against any. one in authority, or any charge at all except against the slack ness at home.' Still, the impression left on my mind by the coolly weight ed utterances. and even by the si- fences, of those with whom I talked, nade me feel how ominous is the prospect of another winter with the Germans still holding Belgian, French and Russian soil" In his book, "The German Peril published last July, the

SATISFACTION.

|
 To occupy place in the conlmun- E ity, such as Nothnagle's home-fur~ nishing store does. is significant of the service it renders this community. A predominatins percentage of home furnishings hereabouts comes from this store. The reason is simple. Nothnagle,s has always been a pop4 uIar priced house and yet has never allowed goodness to be omitted in or der to save d few cents in price. A policy that brings customers back time and again as their needs require NIT. Nothnagle caters to particular people and thoroughly believes that ultimate success depends upon the customer being lastingIy satisfied. When one furnishes a home, the de- sire should be to get as near perna- nency in furnishings as possible While the locality of a home might change from time to time, it's main associations should never, for they are the real elements of, a horne and what a large part of associations the fur nishfngs of a home are, anyone can judge. Remember these points when price alone screams for attention. Next time you are lover town visit Nothnag1e's It will repay you.

venerable philosopher predicted that
 greater horros are yet to come before peace is restored -.
 Let us not think that any kind of words or any kind of agreement or
 compromise or mediation can avail us in this fiercest trial of our English
 b1ood,''' he wrote. .sNor let us yainly
 imagine that the enemy will relax in his delirious trust in frightfulness or spare us one pang which he can in flict on us all It is my firm belief to his own 1and-and we shall drive him back; we must, unless we are to be forever ruined-+scenes of horror, almost of mutual externination. will take place, exceeding anything that we have yet known in ferocity and destruction.''
 Nearly three years ago the philoso- pher published in an English review an article on "The German Peril" in which he predicted that Germany would Icertain1y and inevitably start a general confa agration. He based this prediction on the. statement that Ger many had Hundreds of thousands of proud and fierce Samurai (the sole survivors in Europe of it's feudal chiva1ry) who live only for war and are bred for war and have no profes- sion or career but arms He added: This immense hereditary caste, which has every quality bef1tting a dominant order. has in effect perma- nent control of the whole civil and military organization of the empire and declared that it was determined to have war, in which he expressed the opinion that Belgium, Northern Francs, Holland, either one or all may be the object of assault
