1aoore to Women.

When you have lost the power Of in
terest in things that are common, then
leisure frightens you with its empti-
ness because, your natural sensibili-
ties being deadened, there is nothing
In your surroundings to occupy atten-
ton. Therefore you keep yourselves
frantically busy, not in utilizing the
time but merely in filing it up.
Our everyday world is like Il reed;
its true value is not in itself; but
those who have the power and the Sc
renity of attention can hear the music
which the Initiate plays through its
very emptiness. But when you form
the habit Of valuing the things for
themselves, then they are expected
furiously to storm your mind, to decoy
your soul from her love-tryst Of the
eternal, and to make you try to smoth-
err the voice Of the Infinite by the I'M
meaning rattle Of ceaseless movement.

When a boxer has a good left hand,
he invariably is good boxer. 1t is Of
great aid in keeping your opponent at
a safe distance when in distress.
When Twas novice. my left hand
saved me from whole lot of punish
ment. 1t is the best blow to meet

1t is good to know how to use
this left jab, because you may be
attacked on the street some dark
night. Besides, a left jab develops
the arm muscles.
To develop good left jab there
is nothing better than shadow box

Locates-WeIl Trouble.

When 1,4O0-fOOt well in west

the superintendent of the water works
wondered how he could locate the trOu-

and to follow them by the aid Of Il

at Il depth Of 40 feet, where loose
packing permitted surface water to
enter.

sides a left jab to be a good boxer.
and it would be futile to try to out
line a complete course for a man to
follow to develop an attack and the
punch that he must have to win ring
battles.
When you have proceeded as far
along the route as this you will need
expert advice and assistance in de-
veloping your own style OF attack and
defense; you will begin to know your
own abilities, shortcomings, and pos
sibilities and it will be necessary to
individualize in your work-to find
out what is the most effective thing
for you to do to make yourself an
accomplished boxer.

In order to expedite service over
the Sierras and care for the increased
volume of traffic which war demands
have produced, the Southern Pacific
railroad has instituted a program Of
extending every station passing track
between Blue Canon and Truckee. This
will enable the company to handle
trains of So to 81 cars instead Of As
as at present, and will greatly facili-
tate the movement Of perishable as
well as ordinary freight.
There has been spent on the con
struction Of second track from Rock

and SPARKS to Truckee, owe Sl2,OOO,-
600. The additional construction now
announced will enable the company 10
secure greater efficiency on this eX-
penditure by increasing the CONNER
cial train length over the Sierra Ne
vada mountains. The capacity of the
track for freight service between Blue
Canon and Truckee will be increased
about 81 per cent by this means.

The census upon which the above fig
ure is based is the first to be taken In
Albania since the great census Of Au-
gustus. made some 1900 years ago.
Combined Italian and native courts
were instituted and as a result, the
classic Albanian feud rendered super
fluous, hence illegal. Schools for little
children have been opened throughout
the country, in number 124. with 1914
teachers.
Civil police service distinct from or
binary military surveillance has been
organized with a view to granting as
large a liberty as is compatible to the
civilians. The horrid Turkish prisons

navigation between Albanian ports

CAREER OF EARRING
Misfortune That Befe!I Him in His
Railroad Baptism.
sk|DDED ALONG TOP OF CAR
So Stripped Of Clothing That He Had
to Stink Around Until Dusk Before
Starting for Home-Studied
Engineering.

Albert J. Earnings railroad baptism
was eventful and disastrous. Born not
far from Rugby Junction, Wis, in Jam
uary, 1S4S, he wanted, on leaving
school, to enter the railroad service
rather than to serve in his fathers
store. =. c. Forbes writes in Leslie's.
A husky fellow, by the name of Tom
Pollard, whom young Earling used to
help with his lessons, had become con-
ductor on the Milwaukee road, running
between Milwaukee and Lacrosse.
During vacation the young conductor
gave the lad a temporary job as brake
man on his train, an extra" which
Il certain part of the road. Tom had
a sweetheart and was anxious to ex-
pedite his train so as to enable him to
reach the point where she lived, and
when the train failed to do this the
first day. he roundly scolded the two
brakemen. The next day, the same
thing happened-except that the scold-
ing this time was much more severe.
Chance Was Disastrous.
The third day the crew were deter
mined to speed up and take a chance,
with the result that they ran full tilt
into an oncoming train on the single
track. Tom and the others, who were
at the front Of the train, jumped but
Earring happened to be on the top Of
Il box car toward the real and, having
no time to jump, sluatted on the u n
ming board on the top Of the car and
gripped it firmly with both hands. The
impact sen him skidding from end
to end Of the car, decorating his hands
and his body painfully and so stripping
him Of clothing that he had to stink
around until dusk before he could start
for home.
He decided then he would rather be-
gin his railroad career rs a telegrapher.
Took Up Engineering.
The youthful telegrapher who had
worked at night and attended college
during the day had meanwhile taken
up the study Of engineering in his
spare time. He stepped himself in en-
cheering books worked out engineer
ing problems, lost no opportunity to
inspect engineering feats and contract
ed a desire to shape his career SO as to
afford scope for the exercise of what
ever engineering taste and talents he
possessed. When a 26O-mile extension
was to be built in Iowa between Marion
and Council Bluffs, Earring was dele
gated to supervise its construction, and
here his engineering skill proved of
practical use.
Other and more responsible posi-
tons, both Of supervision and con-
struction, We're filled by Earling in the
late '7Os and early SOS. In 1884 he
became assistant general superintend-
ent Of all the lines and in 1888 gem
eral superintendent. Only two years
more passed before he was asked 10
become general manager. Here, also.
although only turned forty. he made
good, and was rewarded first with the
vice presidency, in 1895. and then, In
1899, with the presidency.

The transformation of Avlona
seemed at first beyond human capac-
ity. Only those who have seen some
thing Of the orient will appreciate the
filth. the tortuous plan, the general
baseness of this semioriental port, as
it was before this war, as it had been
for centuries, as 1t might always have
been. it seems, had not some newcom-
err arrived to make the herculean at
tempt to clean these truly Augean
stables. But fortune favored the new
Corners. A fire burned out the old mar
ket and the center of town. Austrian
aviators destroyed many Of the sur
rounding dwellings. A great open
space was left in the very spot where
the hopeless bazaars had once stood.
TO the Italians an open spot and leave
to build on 1t are all a n.>.a needs to
enjoy perfect bliss. They set up tenn
porary bazaars and set to work. From
buildings OF immediate need they have
passed to monuments and a plan is
now on foot to adorn the new public
square with a tall clock tower and
adequate fountains, for which a new
aqueduct four miles long has been con-
structed and another Is about to be
built.

thirly inhabited by an old race, the
so-called Toski, forming the southern
branch Of the Albanian family. The
district has been conquered more than
once but 1t has always remained sOIle-
what backward. During the civil wars
in ancient Rome, q number of old sol
diers and other partisans of the beat
m factions, migrated thither. But
their number was too small to enable
them to give durable backbone to the
indigines, who, though wild, have rare
ly managed to present any organized
resistance to an invader. For the TOs-
ki do not apparently share the admir-
able love Of independence of the north
ern Albanians. They are indeed a
mild race and unless pushed to hope
lessness by extraordinary oppression
easy to govern. And, strangely enough,
all the Albanians, though they prove
themselves in foreign lands amid other
surroundings to be a quick-witted peo-
pie, capable Of many things, though
they obviously possess many of the
major virtues, have at home remained
essentially semibarbarOus. Today,
though they do not oppose. they do
almost nothing to aid the Italians in
their great work Of transforming the
country, and their general impassivity
is rather like a stodgy burden which

ITALIAN military operations in Al
bania may or may not bear fruit,
but the benefits Of Italian Occupa-
ton will prove lasting. In more
than n respect the satisfaction which
Italians have always found in likening
themselves to the ancient Romans is
justified. For the Romans possessed a
certain quality which one can call by
no better name than civilizing genius.
Where Rome passed Roman footprints
still linger indelibly, says Edgar Ansel
Mowrer In a letter to the Chicago
Daily News. Though the empire Of
Trajan Is less than a memory. the
Roman road, the Roman bridge, the
Roman building or wall have lasted
long after other later constructions
have crumbled into sand. for the ga
sOn that the least Of the Roman en-
terprises Incorporated the Roman
idea" n of the strongest conceptions
European humanity has ever known.
Those old stern soldiers and COVER
nors civilized and embellished the peo-
pies and lands they ruled. But they
not only built cities and pushed roads
TO the ends Of the earth wherever the
cohorts advanced but more enduring
cities, more substantial bridges and
better roads than this earth had seen
before or has known since.
Modern Italy has inherited much Of
the Roman idea" Italy today shares
the old love for bureaucratic govern
ment, for order, for solid construction
outwearing the mere ''utilitarian"
product, for in it's way Italy bankers
after the same vicarious Immortality
of lasting monuments which possessed
the builders of ancient temple and
basilica. And, like the legions Of long
ago, the Italian army Of today advances
to civilize and builds for an entire
age. Ample evidence for this state
ment may be found IN the roads and
military works" at the Italian front.
but, better still, in the occupied terri
tories Of southern Albania, which Italy
has either taken for itself, as Avlona,
or is holding for the barely conceived
state Of Albania, whose approaching
birth it has so sententiOusly an
nOunced.
Only to n limited degree can this
work Of amelioration be attributed to
any but generous motives.
