Sometimes the plant is called the
"soapwort," because of the use made
of the leaves.
In England the plant blossoms
from July untilrSeptember, profuse-

first foreign flowers to be introduced
into this country, and thrives in our
gardens and hedges.

FORECASTS OF NO VALUE
Weather Bureau Deerlee so.caIIed Die
coveries That Have Been Given
Z Wide Degree Of Publicity.

The chief of the United Statee
weather bureau and other meteor.
elogists do not put any faith in the
much-advertised system of long
range weather forecasting based on
the occurrence of sun spots and riffs
and shafts Of solar radiation. In
the opinion of the weather bureau it
belongs in the same class with other
methods of long-range weather fore
casting, based on lunar, planetary,
magnetic and astrological considera-
tions, none of which have any scien-
tifc value. When the disk of the
sun is minutely examined with pow
erful telescopes, OF when it is pho
tographed with the aid Of the mod
ern spectroheliograph, the surface
presents a characteristic spotted ap-
pearance, which undergoes slight
changes from day to day, and greater
changes at longer intervals-changes
that depend on the. rotation of the
sun upon its axis and the periodic
recurrence of the sun-spot maxima
and minima. Those and certain we'll
known related phenomena are now
put forward as the basis Of a new
science that would make it possible
to forecast the weather for long
time in advance. But solar phenom-
ena of the kind described have no
direct influence upon the weather at
any particular time and place, and
therefore cannot serve as the basis
of forecasts. The alleged discovery
is regarded by scientific men as be-
ing only one. of those iridescent
dreams that lead some men to assert
that they can forecast the weather
for weeks and mouths in advance,
and others say that they have found
a way to produce rain artificially
or to prevent hail. The weather bu.
reau advises the public to put nc
faith in the so-called discoveries

MADE PRISONER IN BASKET
Actor Rehearsine for Role Of FaIstaf
Got Himself into Most Unpleas-
ant Position.

In rehearsal of the role of the
Fat Knight in "Falstaff," at the
studio of Silvio Helm, Thomas A

in making up for the role, spent q
moment or two trying certain
wicker laundry basket to be used in
the play, and half an hour in trying
to get out of it.
Mr.. Wise was in the same fx-in
real life-that the Fat Knight is in
Shakespeare's farce. He couldn't get
out of the basket. Even when he
got on his hands and knees, he
couldn't shake it off. And Constance
Collier and Isabel Irving, who were
rehearsing the scene with him,
couldn't pull him out. Perhaps they
were laughing too much.
Miss Collier discovered after a
time that the actors prison had re-
movable sides, and extricated Mr..
Wise by sliding out a few wooden
pegs.

HoNoRs FOR LITTLE URUGUAY
It Alone Of Neutral Nations Sends an
Expedition to Aid Of ehaelle-
toms Men.

Uruguay is a little country, espe-
cially as South American countries
60, and few people in this part Of
the world know much about it ex-
cept that it is somewhere along the
upper stretches of a big river, and
that its chief products, as the geog-
raphies say, are cattle and revolu-
tions. This lack of information,
however, probably proves more about
our own mental furnishings than it
does about the lack Of Importance
and inconsequentiality of Uruguay.
Of all the nations not engaged in
3 great war and therefore desperate
fly busy, only Uruguay has had and
promptly acted on the estimable inn
pulse to send a ship to bring Shackle-
toms men back from their dreary
prison on Elephant island, says the
New York Times.
Uruguay's obligation to rescue
these freezing and starving sailors
and scientists is rather less than
the one resting on the other larger
and richer honbelligerents for the in
crease of whose scientific knowledge
as much as that of Great Britain
whose brave explorers risked their
lives.
But it was Uruguay that had the
happy thought and is carrying it out
at its own expense!
The "a, B, c powers,' . in spite Of
all their claims to superiority in
South America, let the chance to do
a beautiful thing escape them, though
they and we know perfectly we'll how
ill England can spare any of its
ships at present for expeditions like
this one.

SAW DADDY's sHREND PLAN
New Jersey Younoster Was Wise With
Wisdom That Seemed Far
Beyond His Years.

Four-year-old John is an intrepid
climber of trees in the orchard Of
his parents in New Jersey. One day
recently his father noticed that he
had climbed higher than ever before,
but, although alarmed for his sons
safety, he did not wish the little
chap to know it. He simply called
to the boy in the treetop to be care
full, and suggested that it would be
we'll for him to come down. The
little shaver made no move, and
after a long silence called to his
father, who was at the base of the
tree:
Daddy, I wish this tree went
right up into the sky"
'Why, boy?"
$50 1 could climb right up and see
God"
It seemed a good time to combine
a little metaphysical teaching with
the principles of safety first, SO the
father said:
"You don't have to climb any
higher than you already are to see
God. Don't you know God is every
where-down in the house with
mother and right here on the ground
-everywhere?"
The four-year-old swung one foot
back and forth from the swaying
limb, and said:

TROUBLES OF LARGE CITIES
Land Ownership In Europe Carries Re.
sponsibilities That Are Unknown
In This Country.

In Europe extensive land ownership
frequently involves municipalities in
improbable disputes: A large town
owning a parcel Of land in a nearby
township proposes to build hospital
on it. The project is not pleasing to
the township; its council prepares a
building plan for the district, and runs
a street through the proposed hospital
site. Berlin itself was, only a few
years ago, treated thus by suburban
neighbor. Electoral laws are severe
Observation-Disclosures is sweeping in ef-
feet. Under the "three class" method
Of apportioning the voting power, a
taxpayer in the "first class" may have
thirty times as much voting power as
one in the second, and 400 times as
much as their "third class" neighbor.
Again, municipal governments are
business agencies with most liberal
charters. They build barracks-in the
larger cities the average number OF
perSons housed in one structure runs
from Frankfort's 20 to Berlin's II
and these structures are material OF
a purely speculative business which
cannot be regarded as healthful in
fluence physically or politically in the
city's life. These things and hum
dred others of similar nature do not
condemn German municipal govern
ment any more than the peculiar ex-
cellences Of the system constitute q
condemnation of the British system in
which those particular excellences are
lacking. But they do bring out the
difficulties of government and empha-
size the fruitlessness of comparison
