Louisville Courter-Journal: Ex-Sena-
tor Bailey of Texas, writing to the
editor Of State Topics, a Texas news
paper, who had said that Andrew
Johnson became senator after he
had been the president, falls into
curious error although" writes the
ex-senator, that statement is accurate
enough for general purposes, 1t Is not
exactly accurate for democrat like
you. Andrew Johnson never became
a senator after he had been the presi-
dent It is true that after serving as
president for the unexpired part Of
Mr.. Lincoln's second term. Johnson
was elected a senator from Tonnes
see. but he did not live to- take the
oath Of Office as a senator from that
state. and. therefore, never became
senator after being president The
ex-senator Is wholly mistaken. An
drew Johnson was elected to the
United States senate, he took the
oath of office and his seat. and he
delivered memorable speech to
crowded galleries. He then went
home and died.

BEAUTIFUL ITALY

daries save for strategic purposes,
and diplomatists, none. The western
chain of Alps bends southwark to the
Mediterranean, ending presumably in
the great headland between Nice and
Monaco. Across this physical boun.
dairy line Italy's western limits NAYS
been thrust back and forth through
centuries, reaching once far beyond
Nice, at present not quite touching
Mentone, which is fifteen miles to
the east of it. In the central Alps
the southern slopes belong to Italy,
although, of course, the greater por-
tion Of the chain lies in Switzerland,
but the eastern Alps, to the south. as
well as north, are Austrian.
OF beautiful, romantic Tyrol, at
present warpawn, the writer says:
Occupied at the dawn of its his
tory by wild Celtic tribe-the
Rhaetians-tamed by all-conquering
Rome into the tributary province Of
Rhaetia. the northern part OF Tyrol
was Germanized as early as the fifth
century On the other hand, the
southern part remained Roman, even
to the extent of Remaining the Teu-
tonic Landgobardi, who swept up into
it from the plains of the Pc. The
southern part, like Italy itself, con-
quered its Teutonic conQuerors, i'm
posing upon them it's language, its
customs, it's life and thought. even
while submitting to their laws. In
part at least this much disputed, Ital-
ian-speaking, Italian-looking district
was long ruled by Verona and by
Venice: hundred years OF Austrian
rule have not made Of Trent, the
most prosperous little city Of south
Tyrol. or Riva, the picturesque port
upon Lake Garda, anything but Italian
towns. Natural sympathies and geo.
graphical boundaries combine to
make the Trentino most desirable to
Italy: yet no one may wonder that
Austria is reluctant to yield it.
Milan, the rich, modern, metropolis
Of the north, where industry is con-
tinually throbbing and where the life
of steadily strengthening commerce
pulsates, not many miles removed
from the Austrian frontier is thus
described by Mrs. Albrecht:
MILAN Is today such halfway
house for people rushing up and down
the earth. from the Mediterranean to
the Alps, from Venice. to Como; 1t is
so very we'll known, so very crowded,
SO busy, SO bustling. one feels there
is nothing more to be told Of her.
Perhaps because she seems so entire
" modern, because she bears so few
traces of her earlier years, one feels
she does not appreciate her past.
This, however, is not SO. She has been
literally t1ampled into the dust SO
often she would have nothing but
scars to show but for the invincible
courage which made her instantly
build on her ruins the foundations OF
yet greater things"
And Milan, the last restoration, the
monumental modern city of business
has again been brought upon the
battle front, and the struggle, as 1t
has been through the centuries for
Milan. is again between the Teuton
and the Latin. r, r.r,fn-.rs.,.

NEW YORK, July 13.-The change
in Wall street sentiment visible ever
since the text of the German nota
was published on Saturday. continued
to display itself today. There was in
fact, more general and vigorous
movement Of recovery than on any OF
the three past business days. Today
the early advance in prices extended
In considerably larger degree than
yesterday to the standard investment
shares-even those which are the nat
ural marks of European liquidation.
The war order stocks. however, again
led in the advance and the violence
of the movement in some of them had
the usual effect towards the close of
giving a reactionary aspect to prices.
The market therefore ended irregular
with a number of the previous ad-
vanceS Cancelled
One reason for the late reaction was
the fact that the upward movement
since Saturday morning was largely
based on rerurchases by professional
operators who last week had counted
on Germany's reply as a probable dis
turbing influence. Another, douh.-
less was that the scope and continue
ance of the unselling are not yet do
termined.

thriftless habits.
The intent to save has usually to be
acquired and the child who is taught
that he must deny himself a present
qualification in order to meet future
need has learned the very first lesson
in economies and one that will serve
him as a valuable implement with
which to hew his way to success later
on.
If we could have thrift taught IN
