WHEN KINGS WERE FIGHTERS
In the Old Days Rulers Were Not
Kept Out of Battle, But Led
Their Soldiers.

The tendency of czars, kaisers. kings
European war personally is marked
Several times it has been necessary to
pull the kaiser off the firing line. King
George, beyond all doubt, is just as
brave, and the car IS known to have a
similar nankering for the trenches. AS
for the king of Italy, if his country
were to enter the war it would be en-
tirely impossible to keep the gallant
Victor Emmanuel ii out of the first
fight that happened, with his inherit
ance from long line of fighting kings,
and particularly from his father, King
Humbert. whose personal intrepidity,
shown at Novara and elsewhere. over
came all dynastic objections to his eX-
posture to bullets and bombshells.
1t must indeed be CALLING to the en-
perors and kings to have to keep out
of these scraps. In the old days it was
always the business of kings to lead
their troops IN the very forefront of
battle. Consider Richard Occur de
Lion, for instance. He fought day aft
er day in the Crusades, performing
prodigies of valor. Even Richard III,
the alleged hunchback, stood or rode
for hours in the front rank, slashing
and spearing and beating down all OPP
position. In those days a king had to
be fighter. In other words, every inch
king.

URGES VALUE OF HOSPITAL
Medical Expert Declares Mother Love
Cannot Take the Place o: the
Trained Nurse.

"Skillful home nursing is a great
blessing says DR.. II. w. Hill of the
Minnesota Public Health association.
Everyone wishes that every mother
might be a skilled nurse, for such serv-
ices are required at least three to four
times by each child for serious infec-
lions as well as for many minor trou.
bles. But skillful nursing in the home
is beyond most mothers, despite all
loving desire to do the best for their
sick ones.
When actual knowledge of the care
OF really sick persons is needed, and
especially where infectious cases are
concerned, not only is the average
mothers training insufficient for the
patients best welfare, but lack of
practice as well as inexperience tells
heavily on the mother in her efforts
to prevent the spread of infection to
others. A trained nurse is invaluable
in such cases, but even better is it
that the sick one should be removed
to a hospital. This is especially true
for the patient suffering from tubercu-
losis, and avoids danger to the other
members Of the family as we'll"

Amateur Truce Makers.

Toward the end of the last siege Of
Paris by the Germans in 1S70-71, the
custom grew up of observing an in
formal armistice of about an hours
duration at shutdown. when the hun
CRY citizens, or some of them at all
events, used to come out and purchase
sausages from the Prussians and Ba-
varians in the advanced trenches at
about ten times their normal price.
After awhile. however, the custom
came to the knowledge Of Won Moltke,
who effectually and promptly put a
stop to 1t by shooting some half dozen
or more of the amateur truce makers.

War and Copper.

Since the commencement of the
twentieth century nearly 100000 tons
Of copper have been extracted from
their ores, and have been consumed in
the chief manufacturing countries of
the world, and now the demands of
war are further diminishing the
worlds copper supplies. The value Of
this metal, at an average price of $50
per ton for the whole period, is G4S0,-
100000, or nearly two thirds of our ma
tional debt How long can the earth
continue to supply this enormous
amount of copper. or to keep pace
with the increasingly rapid growth in
the demand of the red metal? 1t would
certainly seem quite probable that
within the next twenty years all the
known" ore reserves of the existing
mines will be worked out, and that I'M
less new ore deposits of vast extent
are discovered, copper will become one

HeIuoIand's Lighthouse.

The most important lighthouse at
the present time, so far as actual oper-
atoms are concerned, is the light of
Helgoland. the island which Germany
has turned into a naval base. The
Helgoland light is an electric one and
the most powerful in Germany, and is
claimed by the Germans to be the
most powerful light in existence. The
light consists of cluster of three re-
revolving lights, having a lighting
power OF 100000 candles, magni-
tude of light which from figures alone
is hard and difficult to realize. The
lights are on the searchlight principle,
and the cluster is surmounted by a
single light, of the same kind and size.
that can be revolved independently
and three times as fast as the three
lights. The single light is put into
use in case of accident to the cluster
OF three. The electric power is gen.

Her knowIedae of Music.

The names OF musical compositions
do not always convey the impression
that is intended by their composers, as
one listener discovered recently at a
San Francisco concert. One woman
was much interested in the music and
sat as close to the orchestra as posi-
bic, attenively listening to every note.
A popular air had just been played. Ii
was catchy. melodious bit Of music
and was received with warm applause.
Immediately following it on the pro-
gram was DvOrak's "Humoresque," and

Surueon's First Aid.

This is the sad story of a man who
was rendered hors de combat at his
first drill. He had Joined the o. T. C..
He was anxious to be as smart as his
more experienced comrades. In the
endeavor to give an extra smart salute
he managed to dislocate his shoulder.
Happily there were some medical STU
dents in the company who contrived
to replace it. One consoled the suffer
er by telling MIN a classic medical
story. To put a shoulder back the
surgeon puts his foot against the pa
TENTS armpit and pulls strongly at the
arm. A student had done this, when
the examiner said: Boots, sir, How
dare you keep boots on?" The stu
dent meekly bent down and began to
unlace the patients boots.-Manches

SHOWS STRENGTH OF HABIT
Caused French to OeViate From
Regular Ways.

II was Carlyle. We believe. who re-
marked the narrow orbit OF great
events. While mobs were tearing at
the stones OF the BaStile. groups of
men in other parts of Paris haggled
over copper coins, quarreled over the
depredatiOns of house cats, discussed
poetry and philosophy or matched pre-
dictions on the weather. The fall of
the Bastile was to echo down the ages.
But the world Of accustomed ways con-
tinued its way unchecked.
An American, lately returned from
Europe, reports that the most aStonish-
ing thing about the war TO him was
the absence of signs of war.
when you travel by rail if you did
not know that war was in the country
you would never suspect it unless you
wondered why a red-hatted blue-coat-
ed guard. with a rifle carelessly swung
over his shoulder. was noticeable now
and then by CTussroad or near the
buttress OF an important railroad
bridge
The big black and white horses are
blowing in the fields. the red and black
cattle and the sheep and hogs are
grazing i'll the fields and pastures.
AS you approach Paris at night. you
see families dining by uncurtained
windows in blazing light. You are as
tonished after your London experience
of semidarkness to find the boulevards
ablaze and no apparent fear of aerial
enemies or sky invasions, although
aeroplanes and Zeppelins and bombs
may be flying and fighting only so
miles away.

PRONOUNCED DEAD,
INDIAN NOW RICH
After Cataleptic Sleep ETC. NAH
kah Is Driven From
His Tribe.
IS ONLY RED HERMIT
Though Dead to His Tribesmen He
Was Not Dead to the Government
and Received His Share'of
Usage Property.

Arkansas City, Kan.-Thirty years
ago E-to-mah-kah was one of the finest
young bucks in the Usage tribe of In
dams. He was noted among the tribe
as a mighty hunter and trapper. His
was one OF the finest strings of horses
possessed by the tribe, his wives were
among the handsomest of the Indian
maidens, his voice was heard and heed
ed in the tribal councils.
Hence there was a Wailing and
mourning when the news ran around
the camp that E-to-mah-kah was dead.
The medicine man of the tribe de-
clared that an evil spirit had taken
him and he was buried according &c
tribal custom.
Body Kept on High Platform.
Now the Indian custom decreed that
the dead should not be buried in the
ground. They were wrapped in their
best blankets and the body placed on
raised platform, high enough to es-
cape the wolves that roamed the west
ern prairies.
E-to-mah-kah was not dead. He was
simply in a deep cataleptic sleep,
known to medical science of today,
but totally strange thing to the sim
ple-minded red man. Coming to life
he climbed down from his lofty perch
and went back to his tribe, or rather
attempted to do so, for his tribe cast
him forth. With shrieks and bowls
they flew from him as from the devil
himself.
Ban on Living dead Man."
Forlorn. forsaken, nowhere to go and
no place to call home, he was dead"
to the Indian world indeed. For years
he eked out precarious existence, far
from the haunts of his fellow Indians,
