 What is it tonight?" asked the caller
 Guess said the professor invitingly.
 "Microcci?" No
 "Conoocci?' ''No.'
 "Spirochaet?'
 s.No.'
 The visitor ran the scale of micro-or- ganisms as far as he knew it, and then said: T give it up. What is in the pot?'' E "Sausages, replied the professor blandly.

How the land labored heart break

how the invader FOR eight long months
heid the conquered 1nnd and under his
efficient mastery made its soil prodnce
prodigaliy. its manufactures pour
forth their wealth In redcubled meas
ure; how he laid tax after tax on the
men whose necEs were under his foot;
how, toward the end. he gathered his
transports IN MI the hnrbors. and how.
when the American army ut last 4Oo'-
600 strong. moved towardNthe coast. he
embarked all his men within seventy
two hours and sailed away unscatne1
these things were but inevitable con-
sequences.
The United States OF America never
knew how much wealth the conquesta-
dore had squeezed from the conquered
territory In acquisitions. IN fines, IN IL
.ense fees, In taxes on imports and ex-
ports and in war levies. Statistictans
figured for years afterward to discover
from the wildly tangled accounts now
much he had cxtorted. They figured
and quarreled for generation over
the vast amounts that the United
states had lost by losing the markets
of the world, for when her ports were
opened she found that the markets
were gone.
Men said that from first to last tho
Invading army had taken sum not
short of four billions of dollars But
whatever the sum, it vas as nothing
