BRITISH PRAISE
WILSON PEACE NOTE
London Press Calls II stern RebuIke to
Feeble Spirits.

London. Aug. 30.-Nothing President Will
son has said, written or done since he
declared the entrance of the United States
into the struggle against militarism has
called forth heartier endorsement by the
British press than than which is to-day
accorded to his reply to the Pope's peace
note.
The unambguous directness of the Pres
ident's language III hailed as wholesome
and bracing plainsspeaking. especially by
newspapers which constantly oppose pa
cifst tendencies. These newspapers regard
the note as a stern rebuke to the feeble
sepirits,' who see in the Pope's proposal
an acceptable basis for negotiations.
The message also is welcomed as recall
ing the attention of the civilized world to
THE monstrous character of warfare let
loose against mankind by commin en-
envy" which 1t Is commended there has

Butcher In the Hospital.

At the time Of the seven years war
there was very little knowledge of sur
gerry, and the surgeons were often no
more than BARRIERS, inexperienced and
uneducated. They were commonly
known as the Company Of Pain n
name that fitted them admirably.
Lieutenant Butcher, afterward the IA
nous field marshal, was wounded In
the foot by a musket ball. At the
hospital to which he was carried sew
eral surgeons began to probe the
wound and cut promiscuously in its
vicinity. Finally Butcher inquired, In
spite of the pain. What sort of tall
oring are you trying to do? The wound
is large enough already, 1 should
think !" "We're looking for the bullet"
answered one of the offended surgeons.
"Oh! Ohw cried Butcher angrily.
"Why didn't you tell me that before?
I have it in my pocket" And with
that he drew from his pocket the bull
let, which he had extracted from the
wound himself.

Diseases Of Plants.

Parasitic diseases affect plants as
well as animals, but the problems of
immunity Of plants have received lit
tie attention. From n comparative
study of healthy and diseased plants
r.. w. Thatcher has now brought out
the interesting fact that there are two
types Of resistance or immunity. In
one, the engines or other active sub
stances excreted by the hyphaet Of the
growing parasite r a~ntagonized by
the tissue material Of the plant sat
tackled and in the second, the infect.
ed tissue is so sensitive that 1t Is
killed ut the point Of entrance Of the
parasite, which Is thus starved to
death from failure OF Its supply OF
food material.
