To Good Purpose,

That Madame Sarah Bernhardt
should have become Il French subject
has puzzled great many people. The
seeming mystery is explained, however,
by the fact that when "the Divine
Sarah" married Greek in the early
eighties she took her husbands ma.
tionality.
The famous tragedienne tells an
amusing little story of two kind
hearted old ladies who set out one day
to buy a couple of seats for Bern
hardt matinee" On their way to the
theater they changed their minds, de-
termined to deny themselves pleasure
and to give the money for the seats
TO two poor relations instead.
They did so. A short time afterward,
meeting the poor relations. they ven
tured to express hope that the money
had been found of good service.
Indeed ii was" they were told. I'VE
bought seats for the Bernhardt mat
inee and enjoyed ourselves i'm
mensely"

asst Indian Ejuhter

One of the most distinguished as
well as one of the last famous lndEln
fighters who subdued the hostile red
skins of the West is Lieut.. Gen. Nelson
Appleton Miles. Born in Westminster,
Mass, August 8, 1899, he began his
military career ut the outbreak of the
Civil war, starting as Il first lieutenant
and winning his way by sheer merit
and fighting ability to the rank of ma
.jor general of volunteers. Just half Il
century ago he entered the regular
army as colonel, becoming briga-
dier general in 1880, IL major general in
1890, and lieutenant general in 1900,
three years before his retirement from
active service. General Miles took
part in the campaign against nearly
all of the more formidable Indian war
chiefs, including Sitting Bull, Crazy
Horse, Geronimo, Chief Joseph and
NatcheZ. He represented the United
States army abroad during the Turco'
Grecian war, and was I'm unofficial OBJ
server ut the more recent Balkan wars,
while his son, Maj. sherman Miles, was
military attache with the Balkan al
lies during Aose bloody struggles. Gen
eral Miles was in Sofia, the capital OF
Bulgaria. at the outbreak of the pres
ent European war.

ODD NAMES GIVEN CHILDREN
Seems an Injustice for Parents to In
flict Some of Them on Their
Helpless Offspring.

1t would seem q poor sort OF humor
to label a child with a Christian name
which fits the surname all too well,
like Sardlne Box, Jolly Death, Holly
| Stick, Rose Bush, Long Street, Seldom
Early, and the like, but 1t Is done,
nevertheless.
or course, Nemesis is sometimes on
the track of these practical jokers,
only his revenge is probably wreaked
ON the namebearer rather than on the
parents. For instance, Wild Rose
sounded very appropriate in infancy,
but when the pretty Miss Rose mar
ried the fascinating Mr.. Bull and she
had to sign her resignation paper Wild
Bull it sounded bit queer
Somebody, of course, nobody Is to
blame. Nobody was in the case of
Hetta Simpson, who married Mr.. John
Lott, but she got numerically chatfed
over the combination, Hetta Lott.
But the font-iend who perpetrated
the following joke upon his uncon-
scious though wildly protesting BARN
must have known what he was doing.
Probably if the parson had twleged
the diabolical design of the smiling
father he might have transposed two
of the names and spoiled the plor,
The parents were called Gum. and
when the parson asked for the child's
baptsmal names the father whispered,
Benjamin Isaac Godfrey" and 1t
sounded all right. But fancy that lad
writing all his life such conceited
signature as b. |. q. Gum! It's too
dreadful!
There are certain names that are
"off the map" Such are Jezebel, Ana
Mas, Sapphire, Judas and Beelzebub
But occasionally parents have been
known to take II mean revenge on u
new and unwelcome arrival, as, for
instance, One-too-many Johnson, Not
wanted Smith, OdiOus Heaton. Poor
kids
Sometimes the idea is the reverse.
SO profoundly thankful are the hap
by pair to have new baby that they
must express their joy at the font.
Thus we get Merry Christmas Fig
got, Welcome Jones' but it is difficult
to admire such names as NOah's Ark
Smith and Ammo Domini Davis.
Many people wr0ngfuIly conclude
that the names bestowed by Bunyan
upon his immortal jury at Vanity Fair
were very exceptional But his Mr..
Hatelight and Mr.. Liyeloose had their
counterpart in the local director of
Bunyuns time.
Singularly enough, volume pub
lished in 1900 gives copy of Jury
Return made at Rye, Sussex Eng
land, in the late RebelliOus TrouhlOus
Times"
The names of the II were: Meek
Brewer, Graceful Harding, kill-sin
Pimple Earth Adams, Weep-not Bill
ing, More Fruit Fowler, HOpe-fOr
Bending, Return Spelman, Fly Debate
Roberts, Stand Fast On High Stringer,
Be Faithful Joiner, and Fight the Good
Fight OF Faith White.

BENEFITiNt BY WAR
HOW LEADING RUSSIAN WOMAN
VIEWS CONFLICT.
For One Thing, She Says, at Has
Taught Us to See World Larger
Than the World of the Fam
lily Doorstep"

"You will learn in America that thu
great war will have its benefits, th'
doctor said at is teaching us ina
we are strong; ii has issued cal
commanding us to organize ana acl
not only in war. but in peace; 1t has
tauehI us to see d world larger than
the world of the family doorstep. IL
has shown us that we can do all the
necessary old duties and have energy
and desire to accept new labors. rms
morning at breakfast my children
spoke of Russian victory. l said to
them that the great Russian victories
were in the new thought and visions
of the people"
The doctor did not speak Of any
class or sex; she made no distinction
between different kinds OF Russian
hearts and Russian heads. There are
almost twice as many men, women
and children in the empire as In our
states. and the doctor seemed to ln-
clude them all. The doctor was near
ing middle age, but was still pretty
even In severe wooden suit.
The reason for her disregard OF sex
Is not difficult to define. Russia Is the
foremost undcveloped country in the
world. Like its own fiat gray eXpans9
of physical surface, beneath which uIl-
touched treasures of resource lie,
crust of mystery covers the human
resource of the Russian millions. The
charm of Russia is not III its romantic,
hazardous, youthful past, but in the
suppressed SETTLING of human force
beneath the crust. What will burst
up through il? What will this war,
cracking open the surface, rending the
cover, let loose?
When | went to Russia to put my
ear where | could hear beneath the
crust the new bubble and heavng OF
potentiality, writes Richard Washburn
Child In the Century, the volcanic
seething which the war has filled with
new tremors, did not think of the
Russian woman ut all.
1t Is the women, | think, who today
possess Il vision calmer than that Of
the Russian men. From woman l
received the coolest and the wisest
analysis of the politics of the empire
and the most sensible forecast of the
struggle between the people and the
bureaucracy. Through woman | OBJ
tanned the greatest fund of informa-
ton about the future commercial de-
yelopment Of the land and about the
opportunities for American business.
A woman drew for me the clearest
picture of what was needed to organize
for military victories. 1t was the WOn-
an Of Russia who, without distortion
Of self-interest, of prejudice or fear,
could see what the new human growth
required Of compromise with the pres
ent form of the government and what
of fight to finish. And that is the
most delicate question which Russia
must determine in the decade which
follows the final peace.
