War pIspIaces Indian Kinu.


The little king of AMMAN, French
possession in farther India, who is dis
trusted because of alleged friendliness
to Germans, has been dethroned.
Paris papers have been discussing the
question of what is to be done with
him. His father and his suite, as well
as himself, must be placed in q home
far from the comic opera throne that
he Occupied. France has many and
widely scattered possessions beyond
the seas. There has been much hest
tatlon as to whether he should be sent
to Martinique, Guadeloupe, Senegal,
Madagascar or Reunion. All these
places :have set forth the advantages
that attach to each one separately, and
the Disadvantages Of the others. This
for the. treason that the e1iles will have
money to spend, over 100000 francs
yearly. It is quite likely that the Re
union isle, In the Indian ocean, will
receive the royal boy and his retinue
and receive the benefit of the revenue
that will be expended for his "board
and Keep"

GERMANY COULD BUILD SHIPS
So Ear as Ways and Construction

According to an excellent naval crit
ic, Hector G. Bywater, so far as buAd-
Ing Ways and construction plants are
concerned, there Is no reason why Ger
many could not have % battleships or
battle cruisers under construction at
one and the same time. Though he
admits that this figure may be aston
fishing, he shows that an examination

states that simultaneously, program

ships ARE well equipped to produce
the lighter craft. He estimates the
total working force in all these yards
at 100000 men.

How He Saved the Situation.

1t is with tremendous seriousness of
mind that the rookie officers do things.
They were preparing to leave for the
Mexican border, and as the rookie
corporal marched his men up to the
truck he felt baffled. He could recall
no order in the Infantry Drill Regu-
1ations for getting eight men aboard
q big gray truck in a military way.
They were already in squad forma-
ton, so he cogitated that he couldn't
very we'll order them to "Fall in" as
they were already all in; then on sec
ond thought he imagined that Fall in"
was just the word, if he only marched
them up to the truck and said it then.
There would be nothing for them to
do but fall into the truck. AS they
reached the truck came the order from
the rookie corporal, Fall in" Being,
as they thought, already completely
fallen in, the men were nonplussed as
to how to fall in any further. 1t didn't
occur to them to tumble into the truck,
and being up against the wheels and
thinking the corporal really meant
Halt. !" they all came to standstill.
The rookie ''noncom" scratched his
head and thought. Then he said: ooh.
hell, All aboard"

WHY IS TABLECLOTH SACRED?
Its Natural Function Is to Get Dirty,
but Woe to the Man Who Gets
Spot on 1t.

"Wby," demanded the Occasional
GrumbIer, in the tone Of one who not
only did not expect, but would not
tolerate, an answer, should a clean
tablecloth be the most sacred thing
about a fairly average family house
hold? A clean tablecloth is not lares
or penates, either or both. It's just a
rag that has managed to get through
the laundry in good shape. 1t can so
through again in just as good shape
or just about as good; and for that
matter, if the worst came to the worst
Gas your wife generally expects 1T toy
it could be replaced without disturbing
the quotation on international eX-
change.
But a woman never thinks about
that. To her q clean tablecloth is
thing to be worshiped, not a thing to
be eaten off of, and 1t never occurs
to her that no magic call bless it with
semipaternal cleanliness. It's got to
get dirty sometime-why not now?
Nothing to 1t! If you overflow the
gravy from the meat platter, which
through no fault Of yours-has been
filled too full, or if you happen to dec
crate the immaculate splendor of the
cloth with q nice red polka dot Of cram
berry juice, you're in bad for the rest
of the day, and maybe longer.
"Of course, when such things hap
pen, the tablecloth is only serving the
purpose for which it is put there, but
that's no excuse. You ought to be
more carefulr This comes across the
table in no uncertain tones. But 1t
isn't in the nature of news, because
you've heard it plenty often before.
II say it is the business of clean
tablecloth to get dirty and get washed,
and get dirty and get washed, and get
dirty and get washed. But what I say
doesn't make any difference. I get in
so bad every time a new tablecloth is
sprung at our house that in my love for
the comfort of dirty ones l am becom-
ing slovenly in my habits. SO what l
say is this: Either you ought to be
affluent enough to have clean table
cloth every meal, or two or three times
a meal if necessary or desirable, or
you ought to be humble enough to be
content to eat off of an oilcloth-cOv-
cred table that can be swabbed off,
without damage or distress of tenn

Photooraphs ERUPTION on Sun

Astronomer Evershed at Svinagar,
Kashmir, has photographed au erup-
tive prominence of exceptional alti-
tude on the disk of the sun. The pho
tographs were obtained at intervals
from near the beginning of the out
burst until the final fragments had
risen to height of II little more than
semidiameter from the suns limb.
The velocity away from the sun was
100 kilometers per second and faint
extensions could he traced at IS min
utes from the limb, representing a
height of close upon half million
miles. Astronomers say this would
appear to be the highest prominence
which has yet been recorded as ap-
pearing on the surface of the sun.

What the Doctor Knows
KIDNEYS MUST BIB RIGHT TO-
INSURE HEALTH.

Few people realize to what extent their
health depends upon the condition of the
kidneys.
The physician in nearly all cases Of
serious illness, makes chemical analy-
sis of the patients urine. He knows that
unless the kidneys are doing their work
properly, the other organs cannot readily
be brought back to health and strength
When the kidneys are neglected or
abused in any way, serious results are
sure to follow. According to health sta
tistics, Bright's Disease, which is really
an advanced form of kidney trouble,
caused nearly ten thousand deaths in one
year, in the State of New York alone.
Therefore, it is particularly necessary to
pay more attention to the health of these
important organs.
An ideal herbal compound that has had
remarkable success as a kidney remedy
is DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root, the great
kidney, liver and bladder remedy.
The mild and healing influence of this
preparation, in most cases, is soon real
lied, according to sworn statements and
verified testimony of those who have used
the remedy.
When your kidneys require attention,
get Swamp.Root at once from any phar.
macy. 1t is sold by every druggist in
bottles of two sizes-5oc and $l.00.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to DR..
Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y, for a
sample bottle. When writing be sure and
mention this paper. Adv.

Trains Can't Go Too Fast.

An eastern. railroad which includes
many steep grades along it's lines has
adopted q new scheme to overcome the
danger from the momentum heavily
loaded train sometimes gains in run
ming down grade. A spur track has
been built at the foot of such grade
and an automatic switch sends any
train that is going too fast up this
branch. If the approaching train comes
along at a safe speed nothing will in
terfere with tbs progress. If it is going
too fast when it passes block a. GER
tain distance above the switch, it is
automatically sent up the spur track,
where it remains until pulled off.

Motor Trucks to Market.

With the possible exception of the
territory around Boston, motor trucks
are now giving better service in South
New Jersey than in any other part of
the country. That is noted farm and
garden section with good roads and
producing crops which must be hauled
promptly to market. One farmer, find
ing railroad facilities unsatisfactory,
sends his motor truck with produce 90
miles to market night after night, and
out Of all this may come n partial solu-
ton Of transportation troubles. 1t is
very doubtful If there will ever be an
other extended trolley line built in
New Jersey, because the auto pas
senger service will take its place. Mo-
tor truck service will, in like manner,
absorb more and more Of express and
freight traffic and do it cheaper and
with better satisfaction to the shipper.
