MESS you choose The Brunswick as your

Each member of your family has personal pref

certain orchestras, certain instrumental features
A one-record phonograph cannot satisfy all
these preferences because the different record

BUILDING A BOOK.
Cases Where the Ending Was Written
 Before the Beginning.

There has been more than one in. stance in the history of literature of a book being written upside down-that is, it's end becoming its beginning or its beginning becoming its end.
 Probably the most outstanding in- stance of the topsy tGrvydom is "T'he Idylls of the King" Tennyson's great masterpiece As every poetry lover knows, this great series of poems ends with 'srhe Passing of Arthur" and there can be no Goubt that this is the proper and inevitable close of the won- derful pageant of the kings life. But Tennyson wrote that closing passage when he was a youth of twenty, and It was not until, forty years later, the whole series was finished and pub lished In one book that the old poem of his boyhood was found to fit into its place as naturally Gs the broken arm or foot of a classical statue fits the place from which it has been removed. Thus the first became last
 A case of double change Is presented by the novel David Harum." The first part of that book to be written by the author constitutes now chapters 19 to 24-that Is, almost the Inst chapters in the book Then, when the author had practically finished his book, he found that two of his main characters were not introduced to the reader at all until he was halfway through the work. He therefore wrote last of all the two opening chapters for the ex- press purpose of introducing these two essential personages to the reader. This Is probably a record case of topsy turvy authOrship.-Pearson's Weekly.

WHAT INDEMNITY FOR NO
 MANS LAND?

Whatever the peace terms-no matter when they are made-who can estimate just indemnity for No Mans Land?
 That narrow strip which twists and turns between the trenches of EUrope's opposing armies has a yaue different from any other stretch of land on earth.
 Over 5,OOO,OOO men have been Killed since the war began, ac- cordiug to figures computed by ehe War Study society of Copenhagen Hcw many hundreds of thousands have died in No Mans Land will no be known until the army records C all the nations have become a parf of history.
 It is net its width and length that the price of the uneven lane between the barbed wire entangle- ments can be reckoned; the number of it's dead, the bloood which the ground has soaked up, the agony Of wounded men who lived hours or days beyond help of a friend of mercy or an enemy, the thwarted purposes of youth must be added to the estimate.
 With the last breath of every sol diA- dying so. there went out from th- world a spark of heroism - an who can set a price on hroees?
 Every man dying there left be- hind some unfulfilIed ambition, some duty unaccomplished, some plan of living uncompleted, some wCik or love undOne- just as dear to him, and just as likely to be made true by him, had he lived, as any great project or hope of men living in the safe places Of the wo''d today.-Seattge Star.

Coed Manners Help.

A merchant who returned from Eng land just before the war broke out has been voluble ever since on the manners of the children he happened to meet abroad. Apparently American parents and schools do not lay on good manners the emphasis that they receive abroad. Yet good manners, like the gold at the foundation of all money, are current the world over. Emerson noted this: -- Give a boy dress and accomplish meutS and you give him the mastery Of palaces and fortunes wherever he goes. He has not the trouble to earn or own them; they solicit him to enter and possess

WOULD ABOLISH LAW PRO-
 TECTTNG BROWN BEAR

After making tour of the Al sskan peninsula in the interest of the Ohio State university for which he has made an extended trip thru Alaska for scientific ressarch, J. McCracken has written the follow inz letter concerning the game laws Of the territory.
 ''Laws are generally made in good faith (if not for good money) intended for sme vital benefit to a land and it's people. Sometimes Coy tho many; outlines for few. Our Alaskan game law is no exeep- tioR.
 -''The purpoTt of this law is, Dri- marily, the protection of and con serYation of wild life, Well enough But poreupines do not make a good sleeping bag! That is to ssx that because some animals are v"rthy of protection, is no warrant tectioa Is given some of the fine th4s- all are such, Insufficient pro animals found in Alaska, and known depredGtions to them are allowed to exist. For instance, the killing of caribou, moose and sheep for the market, in the interior; certain atrocities to the caribou by the EskimoG Of the Alaskan pneinsula, et". But the glaring defect is the unjustitIable protection of the AL askan brown bear,
 ''Te be sure he affords a bit of sport for the few hunter-sportsmen who come periodically to Alaska, as we'll as giving B few guides a little extra to do. But are the game laws made solely for the small number of periodical sports" or fer the making of a few dollras each year?
 "A settler comes to the Alaskan peninsula, an ideal country for the raising of cattle. The range is Iar.e, free and covered with the bes+ of feed in most places and he decides to go into this business.
 First, he must consider the bear question. This is his only na- tuIal obstacle. If he goes to work to rid his district Of these maraud- CTS, he is liable Of being QTosecut- ed Tor breaking the law ot the land. Bears last year killed the sheep of the U, s. Agricultural Experimental station at Kodiak and these beasts actually make it impossible to raise stock on the ranges that are most adaptable.
 ''Tp carry this matter further, what good, to the residing people, are the brown bear. Their skins are practically worthless and they are a menace to human life. as well as 70 what might become one of the large occupations of the terri tcry. c ,.... ,
 "Tbls may seem a somewhat in significant matter to those interesta in tha pursuit it affects. If any oDe can show us a good reason for tte protection of the brown bear we will rest content; if not we mo-t earnestly say-Iet the protec- tion now given him be abolished. ,"

SUSPEND CONSTITUTIONAL
GUARANTEES OF SPAIN
Madrid Government Takes Drastic
Step Because Of Inability to Cope
With Internal Affair."

By the Associated Press.
MADRID. Juno 26.-The government
yesterday decided to suspend tho con-
stitutional guarantees. Premier Date
went to the palace to obtain the king 8
suspension.
PARIS. June 2s.-The decision to sus-
pend constitutional guarantees in Spain
was reached at special meeting OF
the cabinet yesterday, after which
Premier Dato took to the palace the
decree authorizing the measure to OBJ
tain the kings signature. 1t goes into
effect today.
Dispatches from Madrid give no spe-
cial reason for this action. The con-
stitutional guarantees have been sus-
pended several times since the out
break of the war and were restored
only recently. 1t is assumed that the
passing Is not developing as favorably
as Premier Dato had hoped.
The cabinet headed by Marquis Prieto
cope with the various internal diff1cul-
ties confronting the country. Wide
spread labor troubles. high prices of
necessaries. the cutting OF Of a large
part OF the country's export trade by
the submarine campaign leading to in
dustrial depression: dissatisfaction in
the army and irritation over the per-
ststent pro-German propaganda, which
has been carried on, combined to pro-
duce a dangerous situation, and at
times there has been fear of a revo-
lutionary movement
The Dato cabinet was formed June
IL and subsequent press dispatches
from Madrid said the situation had i'm
proved considerably and that the crisis
had been passed. The new premier.
while appreciating the fact that very
grave problems confronted the gov
eminent. expressed confidence that they
were not beyond solution.
