London, May 17.-Viscount Haldane,
lord high chancellor. in the house of
lords to-day sounded a note of warning
to the nation on the possibility of con-
scription. He said:
I'VE are fighting for our lives in per-
haps the most tremendous war in his
tory. and, even though we may think
that under ordinary conditions and in
time of peace the system of voluntary
enlistment is one from which 1t would
be the most difficult to depart. yet we
may find that we shall have to recon-
sider that situation in the light of the
tremendous necessities of the nation.
/ think conscription may come, but it
is we'll to remember that our volun-
tary system has given us an army
which, for quality, compares with any
thing that can be put in the field"
Lord Haldane's announcement ap-
pears to confirm the idea prevalent
here that. while recruiting has been
satisfactory, the heavy fighting which
has been taking place in Flanders,
where the Germans have for a long
time been attacking with the greatest
violence h British line, many more
men will be required if victory is to
be attained.

 One afternoon. shortly before Christ mas, as we were idling in the Ameri- can bar of the hotel, my friend told me that Muriel had invited us to tea at her cousins that afternoon. and ac- cordingly we went there in company.
 As we sat together Muriel smart figure in pale blue gown, poured tea for us and chatted more merrily, I thought, than ever before She seem ed quick and nervous and yet full of hap piness, as she should indeed have been, for Jack Durnford was one of the best fellows in the world, and his miraculous.

AIDS THE DIGESTIVE ORGANS
importance of Thorough Mastication of Food Is Hardly Properly
 Understood.
(TO BE CONTINUED.>

Chew your food we'll" Is motto which should be written large on the walls of dining roons restaurants, and every other place where human beings eat. The reason is that in or der to digest food in the shortest pos sible time, and with the least possible effort, 1t must first be dissolved, and this can be accomplished only by ade- quate chewing.
 Just how much thorough chewing Iessens the strain on the digestive ap. paratus can be seen by very simple experiment.
 Take a one-inch cube of hard, solid. non-porous sugar candy and drop it into a pint of water It will take at least half an hour and perhaps much longer to dissolve, because a cube of this size has only six square inches of surface exposed to the solvent acs tion of the water.
 If, however, a similar cube of candy is broken into 100 smaller pieces be- fore being placed in the water it will dissolve 10000 times as quickly. be- cause there is now 10000 times as much surface area exposed.
 In digestion we have to deal not merely with simple solution but with the chemical conversion of insoluble into soluble substances-a much moro difficult process. For this reason a one-inch cube of solid food would take much more than 10000 times as long to digest as the same quantity which has been reduced to fine bits by the action of the teeth and the saliva glands.
 Science now believes that much modern dyspepsia arises from our hav' ing lost the habit of living on hard, dry foods. When all our food was so hard that it had to be we'll chewed be, fore we could swallow it our salivary glands were kept moro active and our teeth cleaner

 "Well?' I asked, much interested.
 Again, two months later, when the villa of the prince of Montevachi, at Palmero, was broken into and the whole of the famous jewels of the princess stolen, 1t was very strange fact that the Iris was at the moment in that port. But it was not until the third occasion, when the yacht was at Villefranche, and our squadron be- ing at Toulon got four days leave to go along the Riviera, that my sus- picions were aroused, for at the very hour when was dining at the London house at Nice with Muriel and a schoolfellow of hers, Elma Heath - who was spending the winter there with lady who was Baron Oberg's cousin-that a great robbery was committed in one of the big hotels up at Cimiez, the wife of an American millionaire losing jewels valued at thirty thousand pounds. Then the robberies, coincident with the visit of the yacht. aroused my strong suspi- cion. I remarked the nature of those documents stolen from Malta, and recognized that they could only be of service to foreign government Then came the Leghorn incident e which you told me. The yachts name had been changed to the Lola, and she had been repainted. 1 made search evening she was purposely run aground in order to strike up a friend ship at the consulate, Russian gun boat was lying in the vicinity. The consufs safe was riaed, and the scheme certainly was to transfer any thing obtained from it to the Russian gunboat."
 But what was in the safe?" asked Fortunately nothing But you see they knew that our squadron was due in Leghorn, and that some extremely important dispatches were on the way to the admiral-secret orders based upon the decision of the British cabi- net as to the vexed question of Rus sian ships passing the Dardanelles-- they expected that they would be lodged in the safe until the arrival of the squadron, as they always are. They were, however, bitterly disap' pointed because the dispatches had not arrived"

Yawn for Your Health.

Doctor Naegeli. professor of medi- cine at Liege university. commends the practice of yawning as a physical reviver. A good yawn. the professor maintains, is excellent for the lungs. and for all the breathing organs as we'll. But there is an art in yawning, he says, just as there is an art in breathing. Every yawn should be as deep as possible. so as to bring all the muscles of the throat and chest into action, and also to fill the lungs with current of fresh air.
 Doctor Naegeli has known of many cases in which a sore throat has been alleviated by persistent yawning says the London Chronicle.

TWO MEN ARE ARRESTED AS BEING SECRET SERVICE
 MEN.

Five Steel Mines, Said By the Police to Belong to Prisoners, Later Were Found in West
 Hoboken Storehouse.

 According to Captain Tunhey of the New York anarchist" squad, Fay confessed that he came here to work out a plan for stopping the shipment of munitions. He said Tunney ayers. that he was supplied with $2,000 for carrying out his operations. Papers found in his room showed he was a German secret service agent.
 vast quantity of high explosives and survey maps of New York har- Dor were found in the prisoners room ill Weehawken, N. J, where the ar. rests were made.
 Both men are held on technical charges of disorderly conduct. An additional charge of attempted brio cry may be made against Fay. He is said to have offered police officer S1,OO0 to release him. and made an advance payment of $60 when tke off cer agreed to his proposition.
 The men are declared to have been testing a bomb in a small grove when apprehended.
 Five steel mines. said by the police to belong to the prisoners, later were found in West Hoboken storehouse. Each was packed in a separate wood en case, and fitted with an attach ment which might be fastened to the stern of ship by a wire. Contact with the propeller of a ship would ex- plode the mine, it is said.
 Two suit cases found in the men s room in Weehawken were filled with explosives, letters written in German and official-looking documents. Among the explosives were several sticks Of dynamite and various kinds of acid used in the manufacture of explosives One of the papers, -. is ascertained by the police, showed Fay to be a lieutenant in the derman army anc connected with the foreign office ii Wilhelm -SStra The police assert that the prison CTS have admitted the ownership of ; high-powered automobile and A sneed, motor boat, both of which are in Wee hawken.
