ably the very earliest specimen extant
Of an artificial leg This remarkable
limb Is considerably over 1000 years
old, having been unearthed in 1885
from tomb at Capua, which was built
at least as far back as 300 b. Q. Yet

construction 1t might vie with many OF
those turned out today, 1t is mad

bronze rivets to hollow wooden core
and Is modelled SO as to accurately rep

artificial leg was connected with the
living stump by means Of a cirrlet OF
sheet bronze edged with small rivets,
probably used to fasten a leather lin

him for once. When he got home din

Hope Is the boy. blind. headlong,
pleasant fellow good TO chase swallows
with salt: Faith Is the grave, expert
enced yet smiling man. Hope lives on
ignorance; open eyed Faith Is built
upon knowledge OF our life, Of the
tyranny Of circumstance and the frail-
ty Of human resolution. Hope looks
for unqualified success. but Faith
counts certainly on failure and takes
honorable defeat to be form Of VIC
tory. Hope Is kind old pagan, but
Faith grew up In Christian days and
early learned humility. In the one
temper man is Indignant that he can

ROUMANIA'S RULER.

Ferdinand, King of Roumania, who succeeded to the throne in October, 1914, is 51 years old today, having been born on Aug. "A, 1861. He is the nephew of the late King Charles, the German prince who was elected to the Roumanian throne just half a century ago, soon after the union of the Dan- ubian principalities of Wallachia and Moldavia under the name of Rou- mania. Prince Carles was a scion of the house of Hohenzollern-S -Sigmarin- gen, and his rule was subject to Turk ish suzerainty until 1881, when he was proclaimed king. Russia aided Rou- mania in throwing off the Turkish yoke, but the Czar annexed to his do-
 ninions the province of Bessarabia in which there are more than a million Roumanians. Austria also took pos- session of large territory principally inhabited by Roumanians. To unite these lost provinces under the Rou- manian flag is the dream of every patriotic subject of King Ferdinand. As a German and a Hohenzollern, it is believed that King Ferdinand is in sympathy with the Central Empires. but this sentiment, if 1t exists, is by no means shared by the masses of his people. The Roumanians have a great sentimental attachment for France, and are disciples of French culture manners and literature. To fight against France is to them unthinkable, and the monarch who sought to force them to do so would probably have a brief reign.
 King Ferdinand married, in 1893, Princess Marie of Saxe-Coburg and

Teutons Rush To
 Halt Czar's Forces

Berlin. Aug. 24-Government cir cles here, though none too optimistic, view the Rumanian situation calmly taking the attitude that it is Ruma- nia's next move. The feeling is that the central powers have done every thing possible to meet Rumania's views and that Rumania, in persist ing on matters desired by the entente and her own. expansionist party. will find the central powers ready. in which event it is to be expected every effort will be made to insure that the new war theatre is on Rumanian soil.
 Information from Vienna indicates that the Austro-Hungarian govern ment, bearing in mind the results sof the negotiations concerning Italy's claims before that nation entered the war, has been at no time disposed to offer Rumania similar concessions for fear such action may be taken to have other significance.
