Carriages without horses shall go,
And accidents fill the world with woe
Around the world thought shall fly
In the twinkling of an eyel
Water shall yet more wonders do,
Now strange, yet shall be true.
The world upside down shall be,
And gold be found at root of tree.
Through hills man shall ride,
And no horse or ass be at his side.
Under water man shall walk,
Shall ride, shall sleep, shall talk,
In the air men shall be seen,
In white, in black. in green.
Iron in water shall float
AS easy as wooden boat.
Gold shall be found and coined
In land that's not now known.
Fire and water shall wonders do,
England shall at last admit Jew;
And the world unto an end shall come
In eighteen numbered and eighty-one.

STEEL FOR WAR use
All of the Output Is Assured to
the United States.
Producers Agree to Furnish All Need
cd at q Price to Be Fixed
Later.

Washington, July 13.-More than
billion dollars worth of contracts for
steel for ships, shells and other war
supplies will be let Immediately, as
result Of the peace concluded between
the government and the steel pro-
ducers.
Following hard upon the presidents
earnest, If not mandatory, plea to
manufacturers to fOrego excessive
profits as patriotic duty, the steel
producers, headed by Chairman Gary
and President Farrell Of the steel trust,
promised Secretary of War Baker,
chairman Of the council Of national de-
tense, that they would supply all the
steel needed by the government at
price to be fixed after the conclusion
OF the trade commissions cost inquiry.
President Wilson Immediately there
after trapsmitted to Chairman Den
man Of the shipping board an authori-
zatiOn to commander ships on the
stocks, shipyards and raw materials,
II necessary. and to begin expenditure
OF the $750,OOO,OO0 fund for construc-
tiOn Of the merchant marine. OF this
amount s250,OOO.OO0 Is for the pur-
chase Of ships now on the stocks
The prOmptitude with which the
steel producers met the terms of the
council of national defense was gen.
orally credited to the bold stroke Of the
president in issuing his remarkable
open letter to the manufacturers when
1t became evident that Mr. Gary and
his associates were inclined to oppose
the Administrations demands. They
quickly came to terms and avoided be-
ing branded by the president as slack
erS
Although the steel chiefs professed
entire willingness to supply the gov
ernment all the steel it needs at less
than market price they insisted for a
time that they would charge other con-
sumers whatever prices the demand
creates. They finally yielded, how
ever, to Secretary Bakers demand that
no more than the price to the govern
ment should be charged the allies and
domestic consumers.
well, I rather think that the gov
ernment will use all the steel that can
be produced for some time and that
other consumers will have to wait" re-
marked one OF the steel magnates when
they had yielded on ali points. The
Inference is that building operations in
the United States requiring large
quantities of steel are likely to be
brought to standstill.

Official Says Political UpheavaI Is
Only Temporary.

Washington, July 13.-Acting Secre-

Importance to Germany's threatened
political upheaval.
Mr.. Polk summarized the depart
ment's attitude as follows:
ut Is we'll not to exaggerate the
real meaning of Germany's internal
strife on her foreign policies or on her
efforts In the war. Any changes that
may take place there would be much
more important if they affected the
military rather than the civilian. If
they reached men like Hindenberg and
Ludendorff for instance"
Mr.. Polk pointed to the view Of the
London Press, which attaches very lit
tie but internal Importance to the crisis
now on. The presence in Washington
Of former Charge Grew from Berlin
and Vienna and Z. S. Grant-Smith
from Vienna gives the government a
very good means of valuing news from
Germany and Austria.

WHY KISSES GIVE A THRILL
1t Is When Chemical Elements In a
Man and Woman Blend Properly
That They'Are Really Mated.

An eminent psycOpath has likened q
kiss to the stroking of a cat, and saws
that the longer you kiss the same
woman the less the thrill you get in re-
turn.
Love Is an electro-chemical action.
and he who says the same effect that is
derived from kiss can be obtained
from the stroking of cat is theorist
and is taking into consideration only
the electro part Of the action. 1t is
likely that the learned psycopath Is not
a man from the great school of erper.
ence, or that he has never been for
tunate enough to come In contact with
the human magnet that did not repel
him.
Compare two human beings, male
and female, with two large storage bat
teries highly charged.
The action to which the batteries are
subjected wears them out as time goes
on. They work harmoniously, and so it
Is with man and a woman SO long
as she Is magnetic she draws the man
to her, and the same thrill Is there, but
once Sue DeSluS TO repel, lnen the mag
net ceases to perform its functions
and the thrill Is gone.
Who would be satisfied to stroke the
back Of pretty cat to bring about the
thrill they have experienced when
brought in contact with the magnet
that attracted them?
When the chemical elements In a
man and q woman blend properly that
is when they are mated; the kiss never
loses it's thrill.-Chicago Herald.
