SCIENTISTS KEEP At WORK
Turmoil Of War seems to Have Had
Little Effect on the Develop
..-. msnt Of ideas.

80 thick and fast come the devel-
opments Of science in these days that
men are losing their sense of astonish-
ment. The impossible becomes the
actual 80 often that 1t Is unsafe to
say that anything cannot be done. A
few months ago the first telephone
message was transmitted across the
continent. Today We hear that .
still greater distance has been covered
by = wireless telephone. Forty years
ago q current Of electricity could not
be made to jump moro than . few
inches through . vacuum. Today
there is no known limit to 1t, or rath-
or to the capacity of new instruments
to detect 1t. Some electrical On
gineers believe that messages could be
sent to the moon, and perhaps out into
infinite space through the ether Just
as easily as from San Francisco to
Honolulu through the atmosphere.
With all this, no man can tell what
electricity is. AL we know about 1t
is that when . certain thing IL done
certain results follow.-New York

SOLOMON ON ENGLISH BENCH
Judge Suggested That Half-starved
Bear Be Allowed to Eat
Lame Pony.

A Snowman named Viso Markinko-
witch, belonging to band of Serbian
gypsies, was charged the other day
at West London with i'll treating q
brown bear and pony.
Inspector Brockhouse said the bear
was tied by the nose and neck to a
van, and fell down when it's chain
was undone. 1t was In a neglected
condition, and when offered some
pieces of bread simply took them
like pills" bolting the food ravenous-
ly. The pony, which was also tied to
the van, was lame. Both animals
were being dragged along.
The prisoner, through an interpret
er, declared he was Ill, and If doctor
would certify him well he would be
willing to go to prison for twenty
years.
A veterinary surgeon said the bear
wanted feeding up, but it was cruelty
to allow the pony to live.
"Then it would be better If the bear
ate the pony" the Judge said, "for the
bear would then be fed and the pony
would be out Of its misery. I under
stand that these wild and carnivorous
animals have to be kept half starved
or they become dangerous?"
THAT is so," said the witness, but
not 30 much as in this case"
A remand was granted, not to en-
able the bear to eat the pony, but to
allow the prisoner to engage an attor

deliberately sat down and began taking
off the new shoes. Looking down at her,
he could see that she was breathing fast.
She whipped off the new shoes and had
the old ones on her feet before Eadbrook
could imagine what the difficulty was.
But, like good shoe man, he knelt before
her and laced up the shabby shoes.
"Aren't they all right?" he inquired,
perplexed.
"Sure they're all right" she answered,
without looking at him. "I'll come back
with the money if you'll lay them aside.
"But, Miss" he protested.
"Listen!" she shot at him from tightly
set lips. "You're too easy. You--I-"
She stopped, and her lips trembled.
Something about her manner informed
Eadbrook that she had been, or was now,
or expected to be, in trouble. He forgot
that the shoe store had been losing money
for the past two months, and thought
only of the fact that this was woman
who seemed to be in hard luck. He
coughed discreetly and said:
"Excuse me, but if it's because-you
don't feel that you could afford-let me
make you present"
She had had all that she could stand.
The tears streamed from her eyes, and she
sat down with her head on her out
stretched arm, which rested on the back
of the bench, and shook with sobs.
Eadbrook, considerably stirred at the
spectacle, resolved upon bit of boldness.
He knelt in front of her, took off the old
shoes again, and replaced the new ones.
She did not resist. Then he said, "rhere!
The pleasure is all mine," and wondered
what was to come next.
AFTER a moment the girl raised her
4 head. A look of suspicion suddenly
came into her dark eyes. She gave Fad
brook piercing glance, and hard
expression came around her mouth. She
said coldly:
"Well, 60 ahead Say it'll"
"Say what?" asked the young man.
"Oh, I don't mind. Go ahead. Say
what's in your mind. / don't blame you.
Go on and ask me when you can see me.
Ask me whether wouldn't like to go out
for carriage ride, Or"
"I don't see what you mean-" began
Eadbrook.
"Don't bluff" she cried bitterly. "Be

away shoes for the fun of it. Nobody
gives anything without comeback

It's all up to me. l know it,.
you're mistaken, said Eadbrook, who
was beginning to understand the drift of
the matter. "I thought you might beer
temporarily iy-er-whatd do you call it
and really wanted to let you have them.
I don't care if I never see you again. I'm
pretty busy this morning; so, if you'll ex-
cuse me"
He turned his back upon her and went
toward the desk. 1t was only after he had
sat down, and was making show Of get
ting back to the books that he heard
light step behind him and heard voice
say near his ear: as that honest Injun,
kid?"
He resented being addressed as "kid."
1t sounded positively indecent to his
conventional ears. He replied sharply:
as ,nhat honest?"
"That you don't want to see me again?"

upper knee. After a while the girl rose,
shook herself, went to mirror, and coolly
arranged her hair. There was not sign
of tear in her eyes.
"Sit down here, Rose" the man said,
looking up. 81 want to talk to you."
She sat down, facing him. There was
no longer on her face the slightest sign
of emotion Of any sort. She was placid,
receptive, and insouciant.
ado you know where his store is?"
"Yes."
"Thats all right. You know what I
want. Information. You get it,.
She looked at him a moment. Then
she said:
"All right, Bill. But it's shame. It's
shame"
The man laughed.
FULL of determination not to let the
public business interfere too much
with the conduct of his private affairs,
Walter Eadbrook came down to his store
early next morning, sprinkled the side
walk in front with his own hands, let
down the awning against the sun, and
was working over his accounts.
Eadbrook realized at this moment that
he had been neglecting his work shame
fully. He had been doing everything, al
most, in the past few weeks, except attend
to his own business. His clerk was ineffi-
cient and lazy. The store had really been
registering steady loss, rent and over
head expenses considered, since Starr came
to town.
And even now, in the midst of his own
troubles, Eadbrook suddenly laid down
his pen and went to the safe. He took
therefrom several books, the records of
the Boosters Association, of which he was
treasurer. He was soon poring over these
In defiance of his own needs.
At this juncture opportunity came tap
ping gently.
1t was pretty young creature. Ead-
brook Immediately recognized her as the
gypsy-loolling girl he had seen frying
bacon in front of tent on the Coppns
lot. She walked in like queen. Her
shoulders were thrown back in a way that
instantly recalled to Eadbrook the pic
lures he had looked at, as boy, in the
back of the family Bible-pictures of
Eastern women carrying water-jugs on
their shoulders. She was simply and pref
tily dressed, except as to her shoes. Those
were shabby.
"Good morning!" she laughed at him,
showing her even white teeth. DO you
sell shoes?"
There was something infectious about
her tlippancy. Eadbrook found himself
replying: mo, l am a grocer"
She laughed so heartily that Eadbrook
concluded that he had said something ex-
tremely good and he laughed, too. Then
he remembered that he was dignifed
business man, and asked mechanically:
"What size, please?'
"A wide four with medium heels, if
you've got them
Eadbrook brought down box from the
shelves. His customer sat on the long
bench, and Eadbrook observed that she
seemed instinctively to drop her skirts
over her ankles. He knew that his GUS
toner was a dancer, and that she danced
in short skirts, and it puzzled him. He
concluded that she was stimulating mod
esty merely to make an impression on
him. He shrugged his shoulders, like a
man of the world and fitted the shoes.

women are coming to the right
which are naturally theirs. They are
becoming more Independent and they
no longer will stand to be mistreated

Laws are becoming more liberal to
women. The new status of women in
the business world is also teaching
them to stand up for their rights and
take advantage of the laws which have
been made to favor them.

lieve the world is justified in laying
aside some of it's traditions about mar
riage. There Is no reason why people

he grants divorce, he always trys to
