ENGLISH URGED
 TO WORK SEVEN : : DAYS ON FARMS
Sunday Labor One Way to Ward Off Starvation, the
 Food Dictator Says.

London, March 3O.-Ir an effort to stir the English farmers and work CTS on the land to a realization of the danger of starvation that, he says, threatens the country, Sir Arthur Lee, Director General of Food Production, a new department created as result of the intensified submarine cam- paign, has issued this appeal:
 ''To all ploughmen and workers on the land: In the trenches German shells come over on Sundays as well as on weekdays. German submarines are just as active on Sundays as on any other day. The enemy takes no holidays. He uses every hour to des- troy your country and kill your broth CTS.
 Twill you not work every hour from daybreak to dark-weekday and Sunday-for the next few weeks ? Your work now may make just the difference between winning the war and losing it.''
 Sir Arthur's appeal speaks volumes for the seriousness of the food situa- tion in England. we have got to do our maximum amount of planting by the end of April" he said. "We have got to work Sundays and holidays or our crops will not be a success. It is our best answer to the submarine menace and the sooner the people realize it the sooner will they conquer the danger of starvation"
 Sir Arthur is making stupendous efforts to carry out his program of tilling the soil and planting all the seeds possible by the end of April

LORD DUN!SANY. :!

It is a long way from Broadway, New York, to Somewhere in France" and to be favorite of the brilliantly lighted thoroughfare and a hero at "the front" at one and the same time seems a difficult proceed ure, yet the gap has been bridged and the feat performed by Edward John Moreton Drax P1unkett, the eigh- teenth Baron Dunsany. He holds a title that was created in 1439, but the family strain has not. deteriorated, for Lord Dunsany is not only a great dramatist and poet, but gallant and able soldier, who has serve dhis coun- try faithfully and we'll. Although he is Irish, and the scion of an ancient Hibernian clan, he helped to suppress the riots in Dublin last year, and was wounded in the street fighting in that city. He has also spent several long periods at the front in France, and has displayed great bravery under fire. The present struggle is not his first experience of warfare, as he took part in several battles during the South African war.
 It has only been in the dramatic season now drawing to close that Lord Dunsany has gained wide fame as a dramatist on this side of the At lantfc. Within the last few months his name has been on the tongues of all who take a serious interest in the drama, and his popularity is to con- fess yourself tout of it'' in New York today, and his vogue is gradually ex- tending over the American continent. The man whose one act plays have been the sensation of the season is described by his friends as a lank giant six feet two in height, fond of sport and outdoor pastimes, and re- | markedly careless of his attire-at least, when wearing citizens clothing. He is in his thirty-ninth year. Lady Dunsany was Lady Beatrice Villiers, daughter of the seventh Earl of Jer- sey, and her critical powers are said I to have had an important part in 1 moulding the Dunsany plays.

TIE CUI[LOTINE

It is probable that the reader notoriously gentle-is not in any inn mediate danger of having sentence of death passed upon him. 1t is as well to be prepared for all contingencies, however, and little consideration devoted to the various methods in vogue for inflicting the death penalty may not be amiss. According to the testimony of many medical experts, those who shrink from a painful de- parture from this world would do best to commit their capital crimes in France. since the guil1otine is held to be the instrument which gives> least pain to it's victims.
 Most of us shudder with horror <at the very name of the guiHotlne, as- sociattng it with all the excesses of the French Reign of Terror, yet 1t bears the name of a man of gentle and an1iable character, who was ami mated by philanthropic motives. This is the 17sth birthday anniversary of pr. Joseph Ignace Guillotin, about whom the world entertains such strange misconceptions. Because the gui1lotine was introduced during the French revolution, it is generally SUD- posed that D. Guillotin was one or the ferocious fanatics of that bene- violently malovolent period. Because the instrument of death bears his name, he is often said to have been its inventor. Most persistent of all these notions is that D. Guillotin was himself the first put to death on a guillotin. All of which beliefs are without foundation.
 , Anxious to alleviate the horrors of capital punishment, and to reduce to a minimum the sufferings of those put to death, the kindly physician opposed the adoption of machinery which would dispense with axe, sword l, or rope, and urged that that no dis elimination be made in penal sent ences in favor of persons of quality AS a result of pr. Guillotin's proposals a machine for decapitation, described by Dr.. Antoine Louis, perpetual sec etary of the Academy of Surgery, was adopted. Somewhat similar machines had been used in Germany, Italy and Scotland, but the guillotine was 9 { considerable improvement on these earlier devices.
 Dr. Guillotin had no share what aHor in the inHenfton or construction
