loved general who fell in action. HE
did his duty-will you do yours ?"
Literary England is represented in
the campaign by numerous quotations
of martial application taken from
Shakespeare down. Current war
poetry is circulated on handbills. Men
who cannot enlist themselves on ac-
count Of age or physical disability are
urged to bring forward another re-
cruit. AS a last resort, 1t is pointed
out that 1t is far better to come for
ward voluntarily than to adopt an at
titude which will force conscription.
The conscript will have to take all the
chances of war; his pay will be less;
in place of honor he will have only
shame; instead of a welcome from the
boys in the trenches he will be re-
ceived with cold contempt. DO you

A long list of more or less epigram-

for use in the leaflets and Autographs.
Enlist Now" "a Million Men, mo

few of them that occur again and
again. God Save the King" of
course, you find at the bottom of al
most every poster.
But the great bulk of the poster
literature is, of course, part of the
movement to stimulate recruiting to
the last possible degree. The ideas
take q hundred shapes and forms, but

"2. DO you feel happy when you

children when they ask, Father, why

And so England is meeting the en-
listment problem. There is nothing
else like it in Europe because in the
other countries, both central and al
lied, service is compulsory. But it is
OF particular interest to us in the
United States, because in case of emer-

NINE LIVES IN ONE

l am told that one has to be very
careful as to the source Of his clam
supply. Some of these bivalves feed
in the water near the copper deposits,
and the copper poisons their meat.
The captain of one of our coast survey
steamers, in speaking of this recently,
told me how his life was saved by a
pussy cat. Said he:
1T was a narrow escape. I had
bought fine mess of CLAIMS and was
just about to eat some of them raw
when I decided ] had better test their
edibility by giving one of them to my
cat The pussy ate it, and q moment
later she rolled over and went into
convulsions. She kept on kicking until
every one of her nine lives had de-
parted. The CLAIMS were poisoned by
copper, but they looked as sweet and
healthy as any / have ever seen. Had
the cat not been near, would have
tried them without question, and /
really believe that that cat saved my
life. = Frank G. Carpenter, in the

Mexican Report Condemned
Fletcher Nomination Up

Washington, d. c., Feb. 19.-Sen-
ator Fall, author of the resolution that
the facts leading up to the recognition
by the United States of the de facto
government of Mexico, headed by
Venustiano CarranZa, be submitted to
the Senate, was bitter in his condem-
nation of the manner in which the re-
quest had been complied with.
THE fact that political corre-
spondence was withheld from the
American people demonstrates that
there was some mystery about that
recognition which fell like q bomb
shell in Mexico and the United States,
he said.
"I cannot understand why the
American public is still kept in the
dark. 1 object seriously to this cutie
fish diplomacy of the administration
this throwing out lot of ink to con-
ceal its movements"

Its Brightness
PUZZLED OVER WILSON

Paris, Feb. 1S.-Mme. de Thebes
who on December 80, 1918, predicted
that in the following year France
would be drawn into war, to-day
prophesied that the war would con-
tinue for five years, and that peaceful
calm would not be re-established for
dozen years after that.
"A black red year upon field of
blazing gold," is the phrase used by
the famous seeress in summing up
her prophesy for the World CORE
spondent.
Nine. Thebes. whose annual proph-
esy has been delayed by her illness,
war, although intimates, including
many influential personages, had en-
treated her not to paint the future too
blackly.
Between us and the sun of VIC
tory" she said, "are great clouds of
struggle and sacrifice. Even the
warmth which the sun will eventually
dispense will not end our efforts and
suffering.

tion of the cycle of Mars, which, be-
ginning in 1909, must extend over

" IOlllllluS Ou It's way LOT q peTlOu OF
five years, and peaceful calm will not
be re-established for more than a
dozen years after that. So it is writ
ten concerning the influence of Mars"
Nine. Thebes became explicit re-
garding the fate of the Germans who,
she said, will become slaves of the
earth where they have been masters
and whose Kaiser's days are num-
bered.
"The bloodiest Hohenzo1Iern will
die either by his own hand or by that
of one of his countrymen," she de-
clared.
The horoscope for America inspired
madame's unbounded optimism, she
said:
Americas brilliancy in the heavens
is unshadowed for the present. The
future will bring certain black mists
arising from the menace of social up
heavals due to the great fortunes ac-
quired through the misfortunes of
Europe. An excess of prosperity
that is the one fleck on the bright
ness of the perspective, as far as the
United States is concerned F"

WHALE MEAT FOOD FOR MEN

During my travels in Southeastern
Alaska l have met Mr.. Patterson,
who tells me that great many silver
salmon run up the Kobuk river every
season. They begin running about
July 20, and shortly after that you can
see miles of salmon racks.
| asked Mr.. Patterson as to the
whales of the Arctic Ocean. He re-
piled:
I'VE have the white whale, and
that in great schools The fish are
fifteen feet or more long and the larg-
est of them will weigh three or four
tons. They are especially valuable for
their skins, which sell for as high as
10 cents a pound when green. The
whale meat is eaten by the natives
1t is of a grayish color and full OF OIL"
The best oil comes from the sperm
whale, which has cavity in it's head
full of fat. A single sperm whale is
worth as much as $4,000. 1t will some
times produce many barrels of Valu-
able oil. the best of which sells for $50
per barrel. The cheaper grades sell
for much less. the poorest bringing
only about $12 per barrel. Some of
the whale meat is saved for cattle
food. It sells for $40 per ton. The
fertilizers bring from $40 to $27 ton.
Whale beef is said TO be healthful and
palatable. - Frank G.. Carpenter, in
