likes the fine brick houses in the neigh

would make ideal homes. Unlike her
mother, she even likes the house in
which the family lives. But after the

Dreams are a good test of the need
Of sleep and many times answer the
question of overwork or idleness, ac-

lectured at the Harvard medical school
on "Sleep."
"It is possible to judge by ones

said. "If the dreams are Of a ram
bling variety, the kind that seem to

a pretty good sign that you are not

connected with the days work are

Submarine Torpedoes.

Launching a torpedo from a subma
rine is simple. The torpedo fits closely
In a tube or cylinder, with an opening
ut the rear made alright when closed.
At the desired moment there is a dis
charge of cordite and the torpedo is on
its way.
When the torpedo is projected from
a ship or boat into the water d lever
Is thrown back. admitting air into the
engines, causing the propellers to re
volve and drive the torpedo ahead.
The torpedo travels under water at a
high rate Of speed. II carries a large
charge Of explosive, which Is ignited
on the torpedo striking any hard sub
stance, such as the hull of a ship.
The distance the tube is submerged
depends on the target, but the nearer
the surface the more effective.

Traaedy OF Beinq Dull.

In the Woman's Home Companion
Arnold Bennett describes the tragedy
Of being dull:
'The man lacking imagination is the
utterly matter Of Fact man. He is nee
essarily the man who meyer has and
cannot have any point of view except
his own. He is the Wordsworthian
man to whom a primrose by the rivers
brim was strictly a, yellow primrose
instead of being a miracle. He is i'm
priGoned in what to him is the actual,
and he Is always the exact center Of
the prison, which is of thickest iron.
His tragedy is that he does o sus-
pect and is incapable of suspecting
that he is in prison at all and that the
prison walls and ioor and roof entirely
prevent him from really getting at
any other human being whatsoever.
He is always in his own place. This
is the deep meaning Of dizziness. and
this is the dun mans doom"

ridden in the house by vote of 286
to LOG. Party lines were ignored in
the fight, republicans and democrats
being almost equally divided on eth
er side.
An effort to override the veto will
be made in the senate without delay
and advocates Of the measure say
it is certain to be successful.
For 20 years there has been fight
to establish a literacy test as re-
striction upon immigration.
Four times such provision has
run the gauntlet of congress and been
vetoed by President Cleveland, by
President Taft, and by President VIII
son in 1915 and this year.
The senate Monday by vote Of 62
to 10 repassed the immigration bill
over the veto of the president despite
q warning from the state department
that the Asiatic exclusion section
might result in disturbing amicable
relations with Japan.

Repeat Statement That Rejection Of

Powers to Resume Ruthless

Feb. Sit was stated positively In
high political circules that the German
orders for the conduct of submarine
war could not and would not be modi
fled; that in Germany the determine
tion to enforce the prohibited zone or
der was absolute and final and that
the only security for shipping was
avoidance of the prohibited zone.
Germay, SO the Associated Press was
informed, resorted to this measure af.
ter the shameful" rejection by the
entente powers Of peace overtures and
only after the fullest determination
and as the imperative weapon in de.
tense of it's threatened interests; Ger
many can not relinquish this weapon
the only one promising speedy end
to the war-reluctant as Germany was
to take this step.
The government had hoped that the
United States would see it in this
light and was and is actuated by no
animosity to the United States in it's
determination. Germany, therefore, so
the high informant of The Associated
Press continued, is very keenly disap-
pointed and grieved by the terms of
Mr.. Wilson's message but the govern
ment can not alter or modify the
course upon which it has determined.
This official added:
I'VE can only hope and trust that
American ships and American citizens
will avoid the danger zones laid down
in the German memorandum"
