A GOOD MAN NEVER DIES.
A good man never dies
In worthy deed and prayer,
And helpful hands and honest eyes,
If smiles and tears be there;
Who lives for you and me
Lives for the world; he tries
To help; he lives eternally.
A good man never dies
Who lives to bravely take
His share of toll and stress,
And for the weaker fellows sake
Make every burden less;
He may at last seem worn,
Lie fallen, hands and eyes
Folded-tho we mourn and mourn,

From Europe come reports that certain
kinds of manufactured articles imported
from the United States to supplement the
war-dimInished supply Of domestic products.
are often Of an inferior quality European
purchasers are saying that some American
manufacturers, elated a the opportunity OF
making big foreign sales at top prices. are
overlooking quality in their desire to turn
out goods and fill orders. If this Is the
case II even small percentage of Ameri-
can manufacturers are following this short
sighted policy of profit for the day, they are
doing a thing which cannot fail TO injure
them In the long run and which will greatly
harm American industry generally. This
war has given American manufacturers
great opportunity to establish highly profit
able commercial relations with Europe
relations which they will desire TO continue
when the war is ended. And there Is no
reason why the bulk Of the business gained
through the war should not be retained per-
manently. America can build up and ex-
tend her foreign trade relations-proYidin
she establishes a reputation for being the
producer Of first-class goods. Every order
OF shoddy and inferior articles which
crosses the Atlantic now viii count against
US when we bid for foreign BUSINESS after
the war. Permanent trade relations can be
established only by giving full value for
money received.-Milwaukee Journal

Bullet in Train

Editor OF "JVhat Do You Knop"-Kindiy
decide upon the following supposition: In
the last car Of a train going at the rate of
so miles an hour stands a man who in
tends TO take the life of the engineer, whom
he can see through the open doors of the
train. The Intended assassin draws a re-.
volver which will fire a bullet at the rate
of 60 miles an hour. He fires through the
train mot outsidel. Does he hit the engineer
(allowing that his aim is accurate). and, II
so, what is the rate OF speed OF the bullet
when II strikes him? j. ].
Actual experience, such as throwing a
wad OF paper from one seat to another in
a moving train. gives the answer He would
hit the engineer. The reason Is that the en-
gineer, no matter what the rate Of speed
Of the train. remains a fixed distance from
the man In the last car. II the man ran
through the cars TO touch him he would
arrive, going at precisely the rate his legs
took him. He would be. let us say, ten
miles nearer the destination OF the train,
but his own rate of speed would be iuAt
what II was II the train were standing still
If the bullet could go go miles an hour in
definitely 1t would be going 80 miles an
hour when il hit the engineer-that is, so
miles In relation to the motion OF the train
and l20 in relation to the earth. For OBJ
viously the bullet even before II is fired, Is
so, the shot gives It so more, until it lodges.
