Allied Navies Should

By WINSTON SPENCER CHURCHILL.

THE great number of vessels a

THE TROUBLENIAKER

As @ trOublemaker, according to the Seattle Post Inteligencer, the German kaiser has never been sur passed. Concerning his influence in China and elsewhere, it says:
 "Chna's present revolution, it is stated by D-. Hugh de Valin, of the federal health service ip the Philippines, is another manifesto tiou Of the kaiser's ability to en- broil nations in trouble. German gold is being paid to crcGte dissea- sious among Chinese and prevent the republic from entering the war on tie side of the allies. The Wash ingtou government, in it's recent very friendly note, has suggested to China that its entrance into the war against Germany is Of second ary importance, and that the princi- pal necessity is to resume and con- r:Hue the political entity of the re- public. This seems entirely req sonable; China could exort little in nuence in the war, but the over throw of it's republican government would be a real injury.
 "Ispen newspapers seem to have been needIessly alarmed over Uncle sans note to China, doubtless also duly excited by the kaiser's agents. The world has never had such e general trouble maker and mixer as Wilhelm.

The Chinese "Five KinsS!"

"The Five Kings" is the name of the sacred book in which Is incorporated the religion of the Chinese as well as a great number of other peoples of the orient. The doctrine is a complex sys- tenn of moral, social, political and reli- gious teaching built up by Contucius on the ancient Chinese traditions, and. although It's author lived more than R-e centuries before the birth of Christ, it is still perpetuated as the state reli- zion of the Chinese down to the pres ent day. Conrucianism is a religion without positive revelation, with a minimum of dogmatic teaching, whose popular worship is centered in offer ings to the dead, in which the notion of duty is extended beyond the sphere of morals proper so as to embrace al most every detail of daily life.

from there are true. Correspondents say that Mir. and Mrs. Whitlock have been forced to live on black bread and the other coarse and meager fare of the natives of the country.
 AS mayor of Toledo Mir. WhitlOck es- tablished an enyiable reputation, and his writings have intrenched him in literary favor. Mrs. WhitloCk also Is well known in literary circles, having contributed to leading magazines.
 In every Belgian town you will find some kind of witness to the peoples regard of this pair. The shops sell varieties of cheap little colOred post cards, poorly drawn, some of them, but all bearing MT. Whitlock's likeness and a few words of devotion and grat- itude. Medals bearing his profile have been struck. Engrayings of him are on sale in many cities. Almost every thing he says or does. goes by word of mouth from one to another all over Belgium. When MT. and Mrs. Whit lock walked down a Brussels street all the men doffed their hats, and all the women, and even the children, bowed to them.

An END9rln6nL WlEN a SGEh VI VI w
 uaI Motion Effect.
 4 novel experiment in the demon stration of perpetual motion Is to be performed simply. A glass beaker about six inches high and four inches in diameter Is filled with water to the height of about four and half inches, and two and One-half to three ounces of commercial aniline are added, which will sink to the bottom Of the vessel
 The temperature of the beaker and It's contents Is now raised to ITO or 1I6 degrees F. by means of a burner, when 1t will be observed that the aniline will rise to the surface of the water, from which 1t will hang In 8 mass or curved outline. Almost immediately the sus- pended aniline commences to alter in shape, and gradually & large drop an rnch or more in diameter detaches It. self from the mass and falls through the water.
 And now, the detached drop having fallen to the bottom of the beaker, comes the surprising part Of the ex- pertinent. The fallen drop is seen grad ually to rise to the surface, where 1t Joins the mass from which 1t previous ly broke away. At once another drop commences to form and, having be- come detached, falls and rises in the same manner as the previous drop.
 So long as the temperature Of the water Is maintained at TO degrees or over this procedure continues.
