Artificial MIX a Complex Mixture.

"To show what an arsenal of chem
icals has to be employed when wei
want to copy nature" La Nature
prints the formula for artificial milk,
as recently patented in England. 1t is,
as follows: In 200 pints of water at
S5 degrees Centigrade, dissolve 400
grains of phosphate of potassium or
the equivalent quality of potassium or
of soda. Add sugar sufficient to make
AS per cent of the final product and
mix in 20 kilogrammes of extract of
nuts. Boil, then distil and treat with
a culture of Tactic ferments until the
desired acidity is obtained. Pasteur
ize at 60 or 20 degrees Centigrade, and
finally add a small quantity of citric
acid. This can be dried and sold as
q powder.

Chinese "KnIfe Coins"

Can you imagine woman going into
local department store, asking for a
camisole or a chemise or any one OF
those hundred or more delicate things
that women wear, laying dollar bill
on the counter, and receiving three
safety razor blades as change?
You can't. And yet if the United
States treasury department would take
a tip from the Chinese that's about
how small change would stock up for
womankind and others, in America.
For practical purposes the Chinese
''knife coins on exhibition at the
Old National Museum at Washington
can't be beaten. With a perfectly
formed razor, colored man with carv-
ing tendencies would only need a few;
cents in knife" change to be in a
paradise of his own making.
Luckily, museum officials say, the
''razor coins" are many thousands Of
years old. and there isn't any fear ex-
pressed that the ancient style will be
adopted by the government.

Only Job That Would Suit Him.

At one of the draft examinations an
rascible young man made it clear that
he did not care for any part of war.
While surgeons were humping him he
explained that he would not claim ex-
emption but that he wished heartily
that the government had asked him to
do any service sexcept fighting. He
hated fighting on any account.
A surgeon looking over his official
examination paper, noticed that the
young man was chauffeur.
"Well," the surgeon said, sit is O.
12-to-1 shot that you will be driving
an ammunition wagon or something of
that sort How would that do?" The
young man looked thoughtful. ''The
only job I'd like in war;" he said,
"would be to operate taxi for re-
treating general"

Their LIFE SIMPLE
Wandering Mongeart Arabs
Dwell in Pastoral Simplicity.
Children Attend School Only if They
Wish, and Are Never Corrected
Youths May Be Considered
Men at Very Early Age.

The Mongearts are a tribe of wan
dering Arabs which inhabit the Sahara
or Great desert of Africa. Their time
is wholly occupied by tending their
cattle, and because they are little
skilled in the use of arms, Mongeart is
a term of contempt among the people
by whom they are surrounded.
The Mahometan priests are en-
ployed in travelling about the country
to instruct the children. There IS
nothing like force in the, educadon Of
a Mongeart boy. The little fellows meet
in the morning, of their own accord,
at the place of instruction, which is
to them a place of recreation.
They go there with small board
inscribed with the Arabic characters
and q few maXims of the Korac
The oldest and the best informed re-
ceive their lessons directly from the
priests, and afterward communicate
them to their companions.
They are never corrected, because it
would be a crime to beat a child who,
according to their popular notions, has
not sufficient reason to distinguish
good from evil.
This lenity extends even to the chill
dren of Christians, though in a state Of
slavery. They are treated in all re-.
spects like the children of Arabs, and
the man who should be rash enough to
strike one of them would endanger his
life.
Very different is their treatment Of
negro children, who may indeed join in
all the amusements of the young
Arabs, and even attend the public
schools, but, if they be guilty of fault
| they are severely punished.
When the child of a MOngeart be-
comes tired of the places of public in
struction, he quits them at pleasure,
and without feeling constraint or hear
ing reproach; goes and employs him
self in tending his fathers fiocks; and,
accordingly, there are very few among
them who can read. Those who perSe
we're in the study of the Koran are
made priests, after having passed an
examination before the learned elders,
and enjoy the greatest public consid-,
Grafton. They have no need of cattle,
for those of the nation being theirs,
they find their subsistence everywhere.
1t is generally at seven or eight years
of age that these children have their
heads shaved, nothing being left but
four locks of hair-one of which is
cut off in a meeting of the family at
each remarkable action performed by
the child. If, at the age of twelve or
| thirteen, he kills wild boar or other
beast of prey that should fall upon his
flock, he loses one of his locks. If, in
the passage of q river, a camel be car
ried away by the stream and he saves
it by swimming to its assistance, an
other is cut off. If he kills lion, a
tiger or warrior of hostile nation in
surprise or an attack, he is consid-
cred as man, and his head is entirely
shaved.

SAYS LPAC|F|STS
ARE j. s. TRAITORS
EIihu Root Makes Statement in
Chicago Address.
SPEECH CHEERED BY CROWD
Asserts Arguments Against War Are
Enemy acknowledgements As
sails NaturaIized Citizens Who
Are False to Oath.

Chicago, Sept. l5.-Before $4,000
persons gathered at the war mass
meeting in the Coliseum Elihu Root
defined the word traitor as it ap-
plies in this crisis.
Arguments against the war, since,
we have entered the war, are enemy
arguments" he declared, while the
great crowd shouted it's approval.
Their spirit is the spirit of re-
bellion and the effect is to hinder and
lessen popular support. They encour-
age the enemy"
When the thrOng had given vent to
its hearty appreciation he paused dra-
matically and declared:
Such persons are rendering more
effective service to Germany than they
ever could render on the battlefield
with arms.
Their purpose is so plain that it is
impossible to resist the conclusion
that the greater number of them are
attempting to bring triumph to Ger
many"
Summing up this terrific broadside
against propOgandists and others who
are hindering the government in the
vigorous prosecution of the war, the
gray-haired statesman declared:
anyone who by argument is him
dering the government, and knows
what he is doing, is a traitor"
Gonapers Other Speaker.
Mr.. Root, who appeared on the
platform with Samuel Gompers as CO.
speaker Of the evening, mentioned no
names in his powerful address.
He severely took to task naturalized
citizens who have shown an inclina-
ton to be false to their new country.
''Naturalized citizens who are false
| to their oath are requiting by evil
the good that has been done here in
generous and unstinted hospitality in
this land of the free," he declared.
The big meeting was held under the
direction of the Chicago chapter of the
National Security league. Long be
fore the time for the speaking to be
gin the great hall was crowded.

Rheim. Shall Not Be
Museum Ayers Cardinal
Determined That Cathedral Is to Re-
.. main Such in Any Event.

Suggestions are being publicly ad-
vanced as to the destiny of the Rheims
Cathedral, says an Associated Press
news item. Discussion centers on
whether it should be restored as a
Cathedral transformed into some sort
of a national memorial dedicated to
those who have lost their lives in
the war or left as a monument to
Teutonic barbarism. The question
cannot be definitely decided perhaps
until the German guns have been
driven from Fort Brimont and the final
condition of the historic fame, after
90 many months of bombardment, can
be ascertained.
Meanwhile, Cardinal Lucon, Arch
bishop of Rheims, who has remained
beside his beloved Cathedral through
out the bombardment, is firmly de.
termined that Rheims shall always
have it's temple.
II protest with all my energy" he
has said, and shall never cease to
protest, against any project that seeks
to make Rheims Cathedral into some
kind of museum or metropolis. Those
who have such ideas do not consider
what Rheims is for the Church, for
France, and for the whole world. All
such proposals are impossible"
