The time fuse is screwed into the
point of the steel projectile, the pro-
iectile is filled with small bullets, usu-
ally about 25O in number, and is ex-
ploded by means of charge OF black
powder seated in the opposite end
from the time fuse. When it explodes
tie bullets are hurled over range
of about 25O square yards. The bullets
are SO per cent lead and y per cent

twenty-five children.
LAS you pass On to the market to
buy your food a small boy waits on
you. He represents not only your local
child labor problem. but indirectly the
problem Of the little girl who picked
your cranberries and your straw
berries. Even the baskets that the
berries come in represent the work OF
children. The oysters that you have
sent home from the shop were very
likely dredged by boys from eight to
ten up to young manhood, Some were
shucked by little ones Of seven or
eight. The sardines you eat may have
been imported or they may have come
from the coast of Maine, where chill
dren do much of the cutting and can
ming. Canned peas represent child Ia
Dor in sorting. picking and canning.
The coal you burn at home and the
glassware you use probably passed
through the hands Of children. The
drugs delivered to you are often
brought by boy who may have come
to your house direct from the red light
district. The little newsboy. the
shines boys. the boy who sets up pins
in the bowling alley and the young
usher at the movie all need your pro-

SOMETHING ABOUT SHRAPNEL
The Most Nurderous of All Artillery
Ammunition.

How much copper is used in the
manufacture of sarapnel? How much
steel? What other metals? What is
the cost. These are the questions
Wall street is asking.
Expressed in the language of Wall
street, shrapnel is costing European
countries now at war about SIS each
on the firing line. Manufacturers in
this country and Canada are getting
from SIS to more than $18 for each
shell, the additional expense to the
foreign contracts being cost of trans
portation and, in certain instances,
filing the cartridge case with powder
abroad.
From the point of view of engineers,
shrapnel, one of the most effective
agencies for the destruction of human
life yet devised, is an extremely com
plex mechanism, its complexity being
shown by the sub-contracting OF the
order received by the Canadian Car
and Foundry company among so con-
Germs in the United States and Canada.
The company's order called for 5,OOO,-
900 shrapnel, at an approximate cost
of s83,OOO,OOO, or $685. each. Close to
100000 pounds Of copper are being
used in their manufacture, or about
four pounds to each shrapnel.
The complete shrapnel IS composed
of three principal parts: The time
fuse, the projectile proper, hollow
steel shell filled with bullets, and a
bursting charge of black powder; and
a brass cartridge case filled with
smokeIess powder to s:oot the pro-
iectile from the gun. This brass cart
ridge case is similar to the shell OF an
ordinary rifle or revolver cartridge.
The time fuse is a very complicated
mechanical device which may be set
to burst the steel projectile any num-
ber of seconds or feet after it has left
the muzzle of the gun. 1t is as deli

& CHARTER FOR CHILDHOOD.
Ohio Codifies Child Welfare Laws, but
No Other State Does.

Ohio codifies Child Welfare Laws, but
No Other State Does.
If any one asks what the laws af-
fecting children are in New York state
no person in any position can without
considerable research answer the Ques-
ton. according to statement made by
Homer Folks at the Eleventh Annual
Conference on Child Labor The only
state in the Onion where it could be
readily answered is Ohio. since Ohio is
the only state that has codifed its
child welfare laws.
A committee appointed last May at
the National Conference Of Charities
and Corrections, with C. G. Carstens
Of Boston at it's head and Edward N.
Chopper Of the National Child Labor
Committee as one Of its most active
members. is now at work drafting
childrcn's charter that would show
how all laws relating to children
should be co-ordinated and that could
be adopted as whole or in part ac-
cording to the needs of the individual
state.
The benefits of the children's charter
will not be confined to clearing up Of
the principles on which the various Or
carnations and committees which are
interested III the needs and rights OF
childhood should base their work. In
fact. the friends of the charter are in
clined to believe that its greatest value
may lie in the simple fact that it will
encourage cooperation. The drafting
of the charter. which will be in itself
a cooperative effort, will teach work
ers in the various fields to think OF
their work as a part Of a larger whole.
The relation, for instance, between
the school attendance officer. the fac
tory inspector, the juvenile court work
er and the administrator Of mothers
pensions will become a practical help
to each of them. For the child such
cooperation all along the line should
mean that the care that is now avaIla-
bic for the child who happens to come
under the eye of the official or social
worker who is fitted to meet his case
will be extended to larger proportion
Of those who need it.

it, she put him in it, and he soon APP
peared quite comfortable. She got
some dioxygen and put on the torn

ciate what had been done.
Little Bunny lay there on the grass
for few minutes, then suddenly
concluded he needed his mamma, and
Immediately jumped out of his bed
and tried to scamper away. But
gentle hands put him back.

So forwith a small butter plate
was brought and put into the box on
the grass beside the Baby Bunny, and
spoonful of milk poured in. But
Baby Bunny would not drink and
nothing could induce him to. Grass
was tried, also, but the little thing
would not look at anything. His eyes
soon began to droop, and he looked
exactly like a sleepy child. Then he
really went to sleep, all cuddled up
there in his couch of grass.
'Poor little innocent thing" almost
sobbed the good lady, 81 never felt
so sorry for anything in my life"
Then Bunny let his head fall over
to one side, and his tiny little legs
stretched out on the grass made him
look exactly like sleeping infant.

Eyes, very beautiful" came the
answer
Then gentle hand took up the
little bunny moment, and laid him
back in his bed
At that moment the little boy
came in and asked:
"Can | see him now?"
"No, George. You cannot see him
now. He's gone off to his mamma"
And the next morning when the big
tall boy took the box out into the
vacant lot and turned up the soil
where he laid poor little Bunny away,
he remarked, "I'm going to kill that
darned cat yet"

A Bunny Story
Of Rabbits That
Lived In Palisade

Of all cuty cutes, the very cutest
is baby bunny. There is something
so darlingly cunning in tiny, little
bit of just-born rabbit. No wonder
their being the Easter animal flower
has so completely caught everybody s
heart all over the world. A baby
bunny one week old is as lively as
his mamma, only he can't jump as
far, as high, or run as fast.
Over in the vacant lot back of the
two garages in the rear of the George
Quigleys there was little bunny
family that lived until last week in
the happiness of their seclusion
among the tall grasses. They came
and went, papa bunny and mamma
bunny, and no one had the heart to
deny them anything, or to object to
their scampering away when anyone
happened to walk in their neighbor-
hood. 1t wasn't like being AWAY
out in the country where the boys
go rabbit hunting, and think nothing
of bringing in half a dozen dangling
bunnys from their hunting belts. In
Palisade the little boys look upon the
scores of rabbits that live in the
woods as their friends, and some
times when one of them will sit up
in the road and watch boy coming
along, the boys will stand and talk
to Bunny as though he were one of
their own number.
Now, boys and cats are very un-
like in the way they look upon rabbits.
Cats hate all little and grown up
h,,r &c
wrong to hate, but because a cats
nature is very different from boys.
Last Saturday evening little George
Quigley heard loud squeaking near
the garage, and ran in and told his
father about it. Georges father came
running out, not knowing what to do
or which way to run. AS he tippetoed
along in the tall grass up jumped
mamma bunny and scampered away,
looking back over her shoulder as
much as to say, ooh! My! what shall
| do?"
Just then an ugly, gray cat was
seen, she had something in her
mouth, and was making way with it,
and whatever it was she had was
making loud noise like rat Then
it was seen that the cat had beauti-
full little baby bunny in her mouth,
and it was squeaking Justify. The
cat was run after, and caught and
forced to give up the little bunny
There lay the dear little thing, all
bleeding around the head where the
cat had bitten it, and it did look very,
very badly. Part of one ear was eaten
away, and it looked as though there
wust be some other injury somewhere.
But there wasn't.
