TRUCKING THE CREDUL0US.
Lures Of Gold Brick Schemes For the
Small Investors.

oH0II unVVDSOTos
Will persons with money never learn
how to take care Of It? Will they
never guard themselves against the
horde of tricksters who make q bust
ness of taking advantage Of the cred
ulous and especially of credulous WO-
men?
Bear in mind that no one will make
money for you when he can make it
for himself. If he offers to give you
the key to wealth, suspect him, for
such keys are kept by their possessors
and are not given away to strangers.
The postoffice a year or two ago
showed that over $50, 100000 had been
lost by persons who listened to the
gold brick schemers, but the game still
goes on despite the vigilance of the
postoffice department and the passage
Of protective measures, known as "blue
sky laws" by many states.
Will the people never learn to dis
count the alluring literature which
these shysters send out and which Is
written for them by some of the sharp.
est and brightest writer's of our day,
whose services can be easily obtained
for n few dollars?
! advise my readers who receive
these tempting propositions to send
them at once to the postmaster gen.
eral at Washington for investigation,
That is the business Of the postofice
department., and it will he only too
happy to take up such matters.
Small investors are particularly the
victir's Of these bunko schemes, for
the false notion prevails that man
or woman with a small amount OF
money cannot buy high class invest
ment securities such as successful in
vestors prefer. This is erroneous. An
investment can now be made in the
best of paying securities with as small
an amount as $40 through the partial
payment plan, which is readily under
stood, though tue term may sound

GETTING Out From Under.

1t is probably quite natural that
there should be considerable rivalry at
Ft. Harrison between the student Off
GERS of National Guard training and
those with no previous military expe-
rience, and sometimes stories are told
which might not be told If 1t were not
for this rivalry, says the Indianapolis

a squad of fellOw-students through

rather intricate nature and tre pro
cess proved to be like climbing a roof,

mand, delivered Ns sternly as possible,

USE PLATES AFTER 16 YEARS
Photographers Find They Do as Good
Work as New Ones Without In
creasing Length Of Exposure.

Many photographers have boxes Of
plates that they are afraid to use for
fear of failure, yet are lOath to throw
away. They should know that plates
IL years old may be in perfect condi-
tion.
Charles and Joseph VallOt take about
40 dozen Lumiere OrthOChrOmatic A
plates up Mont Blanc every summer
and they never use them all. Recently
they took out their old plates, some OF
which they had bought 16 years ago,
and tested them on landscapes of some
difficulty. Without increasing the
length Of exposure they found their
pictures as perfect as those taken on
brand new plates.
La Nature notes that the plates were
packed in ordinary boxes and piled up
in room Of a house at ChamoniX,
which at certain times is very damp.

SCIENCE OF WAR Is CHANGED
Developments Of the Past Three Years
Have Rendered Obsolete Most OF
the Old Methods.

During the last three years the sci.
ence Of war has undergone radica!
changes, rendering obsolete much
which past effort and study had es-
tablished as standard. III. II. Wind
sor writes in Popular Mechanics. Cav
airy has largely given way to infantry,
which now moves farther and faster
in motor cars than was ever possible
with animals. Machine guns have
changed with conditions of infantry
attacks. Heavy artillery at long range
now accomplishes much of what for
merly was assigned to an infantry
charge. The difficult and always peril
Gus work of the field spy and scout
has been left behind by the airman,
who goes forth openly and noisily,
sweeping over enemy lines at a mile
minute. On sea, it is no longer the
ship which can shoot the farthest, or
the fast cruiser which cannot be over
taken, that sinks the most enemy ships,
but the submarine whose underwater
missiles are often unseen and never
heard. A.
Trench warfare as practiced today
is an evolution of the old earthwOrk
idea, but so changed and expanded as
to have little resemblance. 1t was
German invention, worked out to in
clude streets and alleys with main
arteries OF communication from the
rear, and complete underground habi-
ltations capable of housing men by
thousands. These underground rooms
are not only one but often two stories
deep, the lower level being reached by
concealed trapdOors In the japanese
Russian war the japanese made use Of
zigzag open trenches as means of
approach to fortress, but to nothing
like the extent employed now.

somethinu New About Birds.

Prof. A. A. Allen, in the Scientific
American, declares that pOlygamy ex-
lists among several varieties of our
common birds. The felicity Of mated
birds and the "cooing dove" theory has
received a shock from Professor AL
lens discovery. Mr. Robin does not de-
serve all the praise that has been
showered upon him; neither does Mr..
Wren, for they are both polygamists,
says Mr.. Allen. He tells Of finding two
different pairs Of robins nests, the
two nests in each pair built exactly
alike, Joined together and having a
common foundation. Two female rob-
ms raised broods, sitting side by side
in two different nests, one male robin
presiding over both households.

Korea Gold Mine for Japan.

The total output of the Korean
mines last year exceeded 15,0NS -
yen ($7,50000O. This amount is
greater than the gold production Of the
mother country, says the East and
West News. The three largest gold
mines in Korea-Unsan, Suan and
Changsong-are managed by foreign
ers. The largest gold mine entirely di.
rected by japanese is the Asano, in Su-
nan district South Pyongando. Ken
song mine in the same province, man
aged by the Furukawa firm, is equally
prosperous. Hochang mine, in Song
chon district, Is developing greatly.
Most Of the gold ore produced in
Korea goes to Japan for refinement,
bat a refinery has recently been built
at Chinnampo that will save some of
these shipments.

most TERRIBLE THREE YEARS IN WORLD HISTORY

dlSfigured unfOrtunateS, preventing the
suppuratiOn Of injured tissues, curing
severe burns and doing many other
marvelS.
Widespread Destruction.
The worlds possessions have been
destroyed at q most alarming rate,
Scores of great cities, hundreds Of
towns and thousands of villages lay
in crumbling, brick and mortar. Mil
lions of homes have been devastated.
New enterprises, new railroads,
bridges, schools, colleges, and a myriad
other works of peace have failed to be
built as they would have been in the
normal development of nations. In
stead, the old equipment has been
wearing out. Railroads in the warning
nations have steadily deteriOrated for
lack Of men to repair and replace
them. Everything that does not serve
the immediate purpose Of war has
been neglected.
Somewhere between seven and ten
million tons of ocean shipping lies at
the bottom of the ocean, the prey OF
the submarine the mine and the raid
ing cruiser. 1t will take many years
of peace for mankind to catch up in
material things.
Education Halts.
In the things of the mind the world
has halted, too. Schools and colleges
are nearly empty. The usual quota Of
| doctors, lawyers and trained tech
nicians is not being turned out. Even
elementary education is undoubtedly
suffering.
Against this rs to be set inspiration
to the human brain of extensive travel.
The war has stirred up many sluggish
brains. Probably fifteen million Rus
sian peasants, who otherwise would
never have strayed fifty miles from
their native villages, have gone thou
sands of miles away from home to
fight and seen strange lands and peO-
pies and imbibed new ideas. They
have been learning many things.
The war has now gone the three
years allotted by the late Lord Kitch-
ener. His famous prediction was con-
sidered pessimistic at the time 1t was
made. Few believed the war could
last so long. Many were ready TO prove
by pencil and paper that exhaustion
would end the struggle within twelve
months of its start. Still it RACES,
each day more fearful, and the end is
not yet.

AVIATION MAKES GREAT PROGRESS

to place such a large number Of
planes on the front as to enable the
long thought of raids on interior Ger
many to take place.
Steps were taken to rush an appro-
priatiOn through congress for more
than $600,000000. Factories were sur
veyed for their ability to turn out fly
ing machines and other somewhat hur-
ried preparations were made. But the
work seemed dstressingly slow,
The situation now appears gradu-
ally changing and with aeronautical
experts assisting the government and
with all the money necessary to de-
velpp our air resources for year at

fare.
Zeppelin raids on England con-
tinued for part Of the last year !;
then the Germans seem to have sud
denly given them up on account Of
the heavy losses involved.
Instead of dirigibles, the Germans
began to use against London and other
English centers large squadrOns Of
their newest airplanes.
Superior to the Germans
On May 26 German bombers killed
76 persons in Dover and Folkstone.
On June 13 the greatest air raid Lon
don had experienced took place. A
squadron of Teuton fliers killed 1853
persons and wounded 430, largely
women and children.
Germany sent over new type air.
plane Of giant size called the Gotha
to raid London July 7, Each of these
enormous mechanical birds mounted
four guns. They were so large that
flying over the metropolis at $4,000
feet altitude, the populace thought
them unusually low and daring, The
result Of the raid was 43 killed, 1877
injured.
The principal object Of these latter
raids seems to have been to draw Brit
ish air forces from the west front,
where they are superior to the Ger
mans, for the defense Of the capital.
The Germans figured rightly that
there would be a storm Of demand on
the part of Londoners for better dir
defenses.
Every great battle on land now sees
a second battle in the air above. The
British officially announced that an
engagement between air forces July
12 on the west front was "the most
severe experienced since the CON-
mencement OF the war" AS result
30 German and 0 British machines
were brought down.
