Danger Signal.

If the fire bell should ring would
you run and stop it or go and help
to put out the fire? It is much the
same way with a cough. A cough is
a danger signal as much as a fire
bell. You should no more try to sup
press it than to stop nre bell when
it is ringing, but should cure the di-
sease that causes the coughing. This
can nearly always be done by taking
Chamberlain Cough Remedy.
Many have used itwith the most ben
eficial results. 1t is especially val
liable for the persistent cough that
so often follows bad cold or an at
tack of the grip. Mrs. Thomas Beech
ing, Andrews, Ind, writes: During
the winter my husband takes cold
EASILY and coughs and coughs. Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy is the best
medicine for breaking up these at
tacks and you cannot get him to take
any other" Obtainable everywhere.

times led to curious mistakes. On one
occasion the painter. George Morland.

retired to an obscure hiding place In
Hackney, where his anxious looks and
secluded manner Of life induced some
OF his neighbors to believe him for

directors. on being informed, dispatch
ed some dexterous detectives to the
residence, but Morland's suspicious
were aroused by their movements in

bailiffs, escaped from the back to Lon

itors of her husbands name and show
ed them some unfinished pictures. The
facts were reported to the directors,
who presented Morland with two TWEEN

Puzzle of the Arctic Tern.

Ornithologists have finally awarded
first place as migrator to the arctic
tern. Recent investigations have proved
beyond all question that this bird Of
mystery makes a fight every year to-
falling $4,000 miles. 1t is on the wing
literally twenty weeks out Of the fifty
two, with daily average fight of APP
proximately $50 miles. When it Is
winter in the northern hemisphere the
tern is feeding at the edge of the ant
arctic circle, far south of Cape Horn.
When spring banishes winter it re-
turns to the arctic, 1000 miles away
from it's winter quarters, to build its
nest In the arctic regions. Almost
with mathematical precision the tern
arrives in the north every year on
June 10 and on Aug. 25 begins its long
southern fight. Curiously enough, re-
ports of the birds seen en- route are
exceedingly rare. One or two have
been seen in the last three or four
years along the Long Island shore, but
beyond this clew to the course they
pursue nothing at all is known Of the
route they follow.-Ph Philadelphia Rec

A WoMAN's OPINION.
It Went on Record as Decision of the
Supreme Court.

lt Went on Record as Decision of the
Supreme Court.
Gall the justices Of the supreme
court wear gowns of black silk" says
Francis E. Leupp in Walks About
Washington" John Jay, the first
chief justice, relieved the somber mo-
notony of his by adding collar bound
with scarlet, but the precedent was not
followed. The court has sometimes
been styled the most dignified judicial
tribunal in the world, and doubtless 1t
deserves the compliment.
"The arguments made before It are
confined to calm, Unconditional reason

voices or forget their manners or In
dulge in personalities or oratory while
debating, and the opinions of the court
are recited with quietness almost
conversational. These opinions are
very carefully guarded up to the mo-
ment they are read from the bench, but
now and then. after decision has be-
come history, there leaks out an enter
tanning story of how it came to be rem
dered
"Such an instance was In the case Of
an imported delicacy which might have
been classed either as preparation of
fish or as flavoring sauce. The GUS
toms officers had levied duty on It as
a sauce, and an importer had appealed.
The justices, when they came to CON-
pare notes, confessed themselves sore
~ puzzled. and one of them suggested
that since the technical arguments
We're so well balanced it might be wise
to fall back upon common sense. That
evening he carried a sample of the dis
puted substance home to his wife, who
was an expert in culinary matters.
""There, my dear said he, is sauce
for you to try
'With one look at the contents Of
the package, which she evidently rec
ognized. she exclaimed: 'Pshaw!
That's no sauce; that's fish. Didn't you
know it,?

for consultation and on the following
Monday handed down decision over

GLYCERIN IS PECULIAR.


From Chemical Standpoint IL Has
Many Curious Qualities.
One Of the great advantages of give
erin In its chemical employment is the
fact that it win neither freeze nor
evaporate under any ordinary tempera-
ture.
No perceptible loss by evaporation
has been detected at temperature less
than 200 degrees f., but If heated in
tensely it decomposes with smell that
few persons find themselves able to en-
dure. 1t burns with a~pale fame, simi-
lar to that from alcohol, If heated to
about 300 degrees and then ignited. It's
nonevaporative qualities make the COM
pound of much use as a vehicle for
holding pigments and colors, as In
stamping and typewriter ribbons, car
bop papers and the like.
If the pure glycerin be exposed for a
long time to freezing temperature It
crystalliZes with the appearance Of sug-
ar candy; but. these crystals being once
melted, it is almost an impossibility to
get them again into the CONCEALED state
If little water be added to the glyc-
erin no capitalization will take place,
though under sufficient degree of cold
the water will separate and form crys-
tails, amid which the glycerin will re-
main in its natural state of f1uidity.
If suddenly subjected to intense cold
pure glycerin will form gummy mass
which cannot be entirely hardened or
crystallized. Altogether it is quite
peculiar substance.

Urge Compulsory School Attend

ance.

0uOOs
State wide compulsory school at
tendance is urged by the Maryland
State Federation of Women's
Clubs, which will make an effort to
get Legislative enactment at the
coming session Of the General AS
sembly.
A circular has been issued by
the Clubs showing the status OF
the school attendance law in Mary.
land. The attempt to secure the
passage of State wide law failed
at the last Legislature.
The compulsory school attend
ance law, enacted, by the Legisla.
ture of 1912, is mandatory only for
Baltimore City, is optional in IL
counties and specifically exempts
six counties. Those six counties
are Anne Arundel, Howard, Kent,
Somerset, st. Mary's Worcester.
These six counties had. last year,
1906 children in average attend
ance and, 11,326 children out of
school.
Of the seventeen counties where
the law is optional, nine are max.
ing an effort to secure larger at
tendance of children-Baltimore,
Caroline, Dorchester, Hartford,
Montgomery, Prince George, Queen
Anne and Talbot. In Baltimore
county the children of the rural
sections are required to attend a
minimum of 100 consecutive days.
In Hartford the compulsory period
of attendance has been fixed at five
months.
In eight counties there has been
no attempt to adopt and enforce
the law. They are Allegany, Car
roll, Cecil, Charles, Calvert, Gar
ret, Washington and Wicomico.
Frederick County made the law
effective in 1914 10, and it is being
strictly enforced. The compulsory
period in 100 days.
Speaking of the special taxes
levied for school purposes, Prof.
William Ell. Hand, State High
School Inspector, of South Carolina,
says:
The State has no right to levy and collect
taxes for a specific purpose, then permit that
purpose to be defeated at the hands of indif-
ferent or selfish parents. For the State under
the mandates of law, to collect taxes for the
education of its children and fail to give the
education to the legal benefciaries is moral
crime, If not a statutory one. In this connec-
ton one hears much about the sacred rights
and personal privileges of the parent who neg
lects or refuses to send his child to school.
Has the helpless child no sacred rights2 Has
the State not some privileges? The tendency
to shift from the home those functions which
properly belong there is regretable. One of
those functions is to train the children for
their duties and responsibilities in the social
organism Society itself is imperiled when
ever its members are unfit. One of the essen
tials Of fitness is what we call education"
