AGES OF VARIOUS LANDS
Many European Countries That Can
by No Means Be Considered
as Old.

Compared with France and Ger.
many, Switzerland is old. Under Ma
poleon's patronage the sturdy little
Alpine states were united into an in.
dependent but rather loose, fedora.
tion in 1903. In 1S48 a new confed-
Grafton was formed, modelled on that
of the United States, and holding the
cantons together in a more strongly
centralized federal power. In 1874
a revision of the constitution gave
still greater power to the central gov
ernment. 1t Is interesting to note that
at the congress of Vienna the powers
Of Europe agreed never to violate the
neutrality of Switzerland, or to at
tempt to move troops through the
passes of the Swiss alps.
Greece has been an independent
kingdom since 1882, Roumania since
1862, Bulgaria since 1885. Montene-
gro became Independent in 1878 and
was made constitutional monarchy in
1905. The Portuguese republic was
established in 1910. Turkeys new
regime is five years old.
Russia stands, alongside of Eng
land, as our rival in point of age. The
empire of the Romanoffs has changed
but little since the time when Ivan
the Terrible, In 1854. threw off the
Tartar yoke.

LAMENT ABSENCE OF GENIUS
@renchmen Wonder That Great War
Has Not Produced Literary Man
of Great Ability.

That the epoch 1914-15 has not pro-
duced a single genius in France Is
made the occasion for comment by the
French journal, LIE Cri de Paris.
I'm fact" says the Cri, 'it appears
that the stars in our literary heav.
ems have been growing pale for some
time. But the time has produced an
astonishing, almost miraculous phe-
nomencn. Certain works already an
cient, Of which the authors are dead,
have suddenly Secome noted as in.
comparable, which before were not
considered SO beautiful. 1t is the war
that all at once has revealed their
splendor, and today they evoke uni
versal enthusiasm. One may count
them upon the fingers, for there are
but four Of them: A poem, piece of
music, a sculpture and painting.
"The poem is the hymn of Victor
Hugo, The Devoted Ones Who Died
for Their Country Few French knew
it before the war: now everyone
knows it by heart, CT pretends to know
it. The piece Of music is The Mar
ceiilaise. The young people iEag-
ined it was a ritournelle, mere -four
ish. They have just found that it is
a masterpiece. Tie sculpture is the
'Marseillaise' that Rude cut upon one
of the door jam5s OF the arch of tri-
umph. The painting is panel by
Puvis de Chavannes, in the Pantheon,
st. Gcnevieve Watching Over Paris.
So in the midst of the storm that
which was great has become very
great; and that which was mediocre
has become small, very small"

Copyright, 1915. by w. @. Chapman.)
Tom Stibbs was just setting the last
of a sixteen-sheet poster in place on
Sign 81 of the Universal Advertising
Syndicate, when the ladder under him
shook. He looked down quickly.
Hello, there!" he shouted. What
ever are you about?'
A man had come rushing around
the corner at high rate of speed.
AS he turned It he glanced backward.
This caused a stumble. His hat fell
off. The next moment he was up the
ladder. He was nimble, quick-acting
Individual, for like an acrobat he
pulled himself up alongside of the bill
poster. Then he grabbed the long
fiaring paste brush from his hand AMI
gave him a blow directly under the
chin. Tom Stibbs went headlong to
the inside edge of the sidewalk,
uttered a groan and lapsed into in
sensibility.
Almost Immediately two police Off
GERS came dashing around the street
corner. They glared ahead, but the
object Of their pursuit had vanished.
Where's he got to-" painted one Of
the officers.
BLESS me, II know!" retorted the
other. Must have slipped into some
doorway"
"No-aha!" calculated his compan-
Ion and he stopped and picked up the
tell-tale hat. Then he glanced up at
the sign and the ladder set against it.
There the bill poster substitute was
industriously welding the paste
brush.
"Thatll do, my hearty" sang out
the officer, drawing weapon. "A
clever trick that, but we've got you.
Come down and give up your booty
and arrange for a good long term, for
you've grabbed something worth
while this time"
But the man on the ladder had no
thought of giving in SO readily. He
continued to manipulate the brush for
q moment or two. Suddenly he
whirled about. Bang! went the
brush, directly into the face Of one
of his captors. Splash!-the contents
of the pail delugei the other. Trust
Ing to their momentary discontinue
the thief for such he was, sprang to

Starting Becoming a Pest.

The English startling, introduced in
to this country some time ago, is in
creasing in numbers in a manner
which puts the far-famed sparrow to
the rear in the race, and it is claimed
by some that the startling will soon be
a greater pest than the sparrow. When
the startling first came to us as a
stranger he seemed to have some SEM
blance of song or melodious whis-
tie, but around the cities where he
preferably makes his habitation this
whistle is rarely heard, the ordinary
note or conversation of the bird
among his fellows being sharp rasp-
ing sound, like the click of fishing
reel. In order to determine the status
of the starting the government is con-
Quoting number of experiments and
examinations of the contents of the
birds stomachs to determine whether
the bird is truly insectivorous or sim
ply a scavenger of the English spar
row type. One thing contended for by
some persons on behalf of the startling
is that where he appears the sparrow
Is becoming tree bird.

the ground from the ladder and start
ed down the street
Halt, or l fire!' rang out from one
Of the officers
The speeding fugitive disdained to
reply.
The officer did fire. The fleeing
man threw up his arms, whirled about
and went down like clod. The off,
GERS ran up to the spot where he lay.
Done for" reported one Of them
soberly-"shot directly through the
heart"
where's his plunder?"
They searched, but in vain. Then
one OF them summoned patrol
wagon. A crowd gathered, but dis
persed as victim and officers rode
away to the station. All the general
public knew Of the case was the In.
formation furnished by the daily
prints the next morning. This was to
the effect that Barney Flynn, profess
1ional thief, had snatched wallet
containing a very valuable document
IrOm all Olu 6cullcmdu hd"Cu heOW
land Waldron, had fed with it, was
pursued and shot dead, but the wallet
not found.
Either Barney Flynn had passed It
to some unsuspected and undiscov-
cred accomplice, or had flung 1t into
hiding in some obscure spot along his
route.
Two days later there appeared in
the newspaper an offer of $4,000 for
the recovery Of blue oblong wallet
bearing the initials in gilt, "R. w."
and containing a will signed by Abner
Waldron.
Just one week after the shooting
of the criminal young man passed
and repassed Sign 21 Of the Universal
Advertising Syndicate. Ten times.
twenty times, in fact all through the
long afternoon this individual went
over the brief route that Barney
Flynn had followed. Always his eyes
were on the ground.

BirdY Slaughter Blocks.

In country districts where shelled
snails are abundant thrilling thing
1t is to see robin, goldfinch or thrush
capture snail and HE them to Ger.
tain smooth-topped stone, there to soar
high in the heavens and repeatedly
drop the unhappy snail until finally
the shell is triumphantly cracked open
as you would a nut.
These slaughter blocks, anvils Of
stone are to be found almost anywhere
that birds and snails are common. It
is, to be sure, no easy matter, to catch
the resourceful birds in the act; but
even if your patience goes unrewarded
the crushed and broken houses of
she'll scattered near such stones tell
the tale.

AVOIDING Disaster,

The parish priest had spoken seri-
ously to Murphy several times about
the wasteful habit of treating, and
urged him when attending market to
keep his change in his pocket until he
reached home, and then hand it over
to his wife.
Some weeks afterward his rever-
ence, passing through the market, no
ticed Murphy and few companions
leaving Alblic house. NOW, l saw

his reverence.
"Ach, sdl. OF cudn't hilp it, yer

Some world-famous names appear
On the list of the consulting panel
which has been added to the inven.

the radiometer, among other valuable
services to science, and has written
books on such diverse subjects as
beet sugar. dyeing, calico printing and
fertilizers. Sir oliver Lodge is high
authority on wireless telegraphy and
other matters. The other names are
equally distinguished and show that
