PROPER DEVELOPMENT OF
THE ARSENAL.

The fact that General Crozier. chief
of ordnance and Congressman Taven-
ner are agreed, at least in the principle
and argument that Rock Island arsenal
lis the essential as well as the ideal
locality for the building of the govern
ments munitions plant, is another
helpful sign of the times
Newspapers of Illinois and the mid
die west are now giving considerable
space in their editorial columns to
approving General Crozier's recon-
mendation In favor Of a monster ma
tional munitions plant in connection
with the federal arsenal at Rock Is
land The Peoria Herald Transcript.
for instance, says: The general opin-
ion seems TO be that the west is en-
titled TO tire munitions plant if for no
other reason that because 1t is the
west This is undoubtedly true; but
there are better reasons-reasons that
will bear weight and have effective
ness IL supporting General Crozter's
plan when It is laid before the next
congress,
"Stratcgica'lv, there is probably no
better site in the country than the
federal island in the Mississippi at

! to locate all the great munitions
/ plants, as they are at present, within
a few miles of the heart of New York,
where an invading nation might take
all with the force it might otherwise
require TO take one
/ From the standpoint Of transp0rta-
tion the Mississippi valley is far bet
ter situated than any section OF the
country. Should an attacking force
invade either Pacific or gulf coast
transportation Of munitions to de-
Tending armies could be accomplished
from central point far easier and
with greater speed than from New
York or some other eastern port. For
the same reason better support could
be given any force on the Canadian
border and the Atlantic coast would
be on an equal basis with the Other
i sections Of the country Although
the east has greater trackage of rail

How to Judge a Doctor.

Because he drives your style OF car
or attends your church, or joins your
order or trims his whiskers in a man
ner pleasing 10 your taste, is mighty
poor reason for employing a physi-
clan. Yet 1t Is a potent factor in his
selection in many instances.
A good doctor is one who never
gets through learning. He reads: he
studies; he Is active in medical soci-
ETY. sessions; books are much in evil
dence and medical journals find a
place in his Office.
Not sumptuous but neatness char
acterizes the furnishing of his place
OF business. Not foppery but conserv-
atism marks his dress He is clean.
even ii he is poor For be it known
that the best doctors are not always
the biggest money makers. Still, the
good physician is worthy OF his hire.
if he fails to collect his fee in a bust
nesslike way he is bound to get be-
hind the times presently, for want OF
the wherewithal TO buy books, medi-
cal journals and postgraduate courses,
But when YOU visit the doctor all of
Ia sudden for the first time you know
nothing Of these details. You have to
1obserye him in action. There are Ger
tain marks by which you may de-
termIae his relative ability.

ine you-insast upon examining you,
no matter what you think is the trou-

Iyou- Not only that, but he examines

Josiah Snider was a widower, 40
years old. The only thing about him
that differed from a hundred men
around him was the fact that he STAN
mered. II was only when he was ex-
cited, however. and great many per-
sons had never heard him stammer.
Josiah stammered when he asked
his first wife TO marry him. He had
been counting a girl for year and was
pretty certain that she would say
yes" but when the crucial moment
Ieame-when he took her hand in his,
when he looked his love into her eyes
his courage received chill.
Mary he said, will you be--be--
be
/ He stopped there and could not go
ahead He was looking for his hat to
leave the house when Mary, who was
a good girl and understood the situa-
ttion, gave his hand a squeeze and re-
piled;
/ Yes. Josiah. 1 will marry you and
make you a good wife, We viii be
married in about TWO weeks if you
want to"
If Josiah was driving to town or
/ hoeing corn alongside of another man
/ he could talk about the weather, poll
tics, religion or anything else without
a stammer. but let something happen
TO excite him and he was off his perch
at once This was not to be laid up
against him; it was simply inconven-
lent for him One day when he was in
his potato field he saw blacksnake
about five feet long The snake was
probably more excited than the man,
but Josiah gave a shout and ran mile
and a half to ring the fire bell. When
the crowd which came ont in response
asked him where the fire was he could
only gasp out:
There is no fire. It's the COL
darndest, biggest, savagest whopper OF
a black-black-bIack-"
And it took 10 minutes for him to
explain. and by that time the snake
had had time TO get into the next
county.
When Josiah Snider was introduced
to the widow Oliver it did not take
him two minutes to make up his mind
that she should be his second wife.

widows at rather late hour he
caught sight Of a man in her garden

sun said, you may not know what the

men do. Every man connected with
the 10 corporations that. according to

them may honestly believe the nation

A Cure for Stammering-By M. Quad.

| The night passed away without an
alarm. The widow was an early riser.
and she was up this morning hetimes
AS she had heard nothing, great was
her surprise when she looked out into
her garden to find a man in the tran
He was sitting down, but he did not
look very comfortable He had a ia
miliar look to her as she stood in the
door. and on gsing closer she was
forced to gasp out;
why, Mr.. snider, this can't be
you?"
| Yes. it is me-" he replied with a
sickly grin on his face.
| But l set this trap for thief!"
] YES, widow. I was going to tell
you that had seen man in your gar
den"
| But why-why- why
/ You mean why did your trap catch
me instead of him? Its because he
didn't show up and did. I was watt
ing for him"
How long have YOU been hcre7"
About FIVE hours. | guess
I'm run for the blacksmith and have

Snider, why on earth didn't YOU hol-
ier?"
Josiah stopped her gong He had
been caught in trap and he realized
that the gossip about it would never
end With the help Of bean pole and
! the widow he managed to prv omen
the jaws of the trap far enough to get
ibis leg out. Then while leaning his
weight on the woman he was helped
into the house His leg was badly
iswollen and needed attention al once
His trousers leg was cut of and he
limb bathed and rubbed and nursed for
1.-TWO long hours before he thought he
could make his way home across the
fields. II was while the severed trous-
ers leg was being basted on to hide his
shank while going home that he found
himself saying to the winow
u know you didn't set out to trap
me, but am caught just the same

led, softly exclaimed the widow.

question.
And the bear trap?" she softly ask
ed
oh. Well throw that away II has
done its duty. 1t has caught NE a
wife and you husband
And the garden thief never came
back again, and the bear trap was
hung up in the wo0dshed with closed
jaws Besides bringing about a
happy marriage, it had cured Josiah
Snider of stammering a doctor to
whom he related the incident in his
confidence told him thar it was the
shock Of the thing In other words
Josiah was shocked into two things al
Ionce.
