 It has been stolen by a second hand dealer, taken to America and sold there was the startling cry that rang out all over France. but the bubble of alarm burst when some months afterward November Is, 1915 the head was found in the cellar of the archbshops house on a pile of broken stone along with the saints and madonnas that had also fallen there from the portico of the cathedral.
 The precious figure was mutilated but not irreparably so. it is believed, and restoration is not thought to be an inn possibility
 Monsieur Antony -Thouret, and ex- pert on Gothic art, has made a state ment to the effect that if all the clipped pieces of stone, even to the very dust. are collected and sorted out from this mound of rubbish one could hope to conserve the head of the "Smil- ing Angel for the glory of the cathe- dral and the edifcation of future gen erations.

Lisbon, Portugal, May 29.-(Corre- spondence of the Associated Press) Although the origin of the fire which destroyed the naval arsenal in Lisbon on April 19 is still undetermined, it is said that the fire was foretold several weeks before it occurred in a warning letter to the government, supposedly from Germans, threatening a long se- ries of reprisals if Portugal persists in participation in the war. It is also reported that the minister of war, Ma jor Norton de Mattos. has been threat ened with death if he persisted in the inquiry as to the origin of the arsenal fire or any similar disasters.
 The burning of the arsenal was CO., incident with the sinking of the Ncr- wegan steamship Terie Vixen as was briefly reported by cable The vessel had on board 65,O0O tons of wheat from America. Her sinking in Cascae bay, 15 miles west of Lisbon, is the first in- dication of German submarine activity along the Portuguese coast. Advices had been received previously from Lon- don that German submarine attack against the Portuguese coast might be attempted and Capt Leotin do Rego, commander of the Portuguese naval di- vision, anchored in the Tagus, recently learned of the presence of two German submarines which are supposed to have scattered mines in the neighborhood of the bar.

ARTISTS PROTEST ON
 WAR PROFITS TAX

Berlin, May 29.-(Special.)-In the name of the Berlin Artists association, it's president. Prof. Rudolf Schulte, has protested vigorously to the proper au- thorities against the recent ruling that the "war profits tax" shall apply to all receipts of more than 1000 marks &C., cruing from paintings
 The whole tendency of such a rul- ing Professor Schulte contends, will be to depress automatically the prices of works of art to a point below 1000 marks. and thus work injustice and injury to aspiring and ambitious art ists or to the families of men who have died recently and who are dependent upon the returns from inherited paint ings.
 A tax of this sort, Professor Schulte declares is nothing more or less than direct penalty for earnest, energetic artistic work. and at the same time a distinct encouragement to the produc- CTS of copies of famous works of art. Individual effort and initiative, he feels, will suffer inevitably at the expense of initiative work.

TREATING ULCERS OF CoRNEA

Solution Of Salt Water.

Ulcers OF the cornea in calves may
be caused by several things, such as
bruises, assesses, or boards from fox
tail; or 1t may be the result OF Sc
we're attack OF pink eye. You can tell
ulcers of the cornea from pink eye by
means of the discharge. Instead OF
pus, you will find an acid, watery fluid.
If 1t should be ulcer OF the cornea. or
ulcers formed by very violent cases
of the pink eye, the treatment is about
the same. Take a stick of nitrate OF
silver, sharpen as you would a pencil,
get an attendant to hold the head of
the calf, keeping the eyelids back, and
touch all parts Of the ulcer lightly with
the stick of silver nitrate. Wait a few
minutes and bathe eyes with a solu-
tion of salt water.
Repeat this operation in about three
days. Unless you have a distinct pro-
lection on the cornea of the eye, do
