KAISER NAMES HERTLING
CHANCELLOR OF GERMANY
Bavarian Prime Minister Succeeds MI
chaeIis, Who Esae Been Appoint
ed Premier Of Prussia.

Amsterdam Oct. 31.-COunt George
Won Hertling, the Bavarian prime min
lister, has been appointed German i'm
perial chancellor.
Former Chancellor Michaelis has
been named prime minister Of Prus-
sia.
Count Won Hertling is Well-knOWn
for his reactionary prOclivities and is
regarded as representing the most ex-
IRENE junker and pan-German position.
He is one of the oldest German states
men and has repeatedly given evidence
Of arrogant contempt for government
by the people, as exemplified in the
United States.
Doctor Michaelis, by virtue of his
present office as chancellor, has also
been minister president" Or premier,
of Prussia. The change means that
Michaelis is denoted from his place as
chancellor, but will retain his job in
the PrusSian ministry.

CITY IS YELLED IN SMOKE
England, Flaming Furnaces Roar
Night and Day.

Manchester is the industrial heart
of England, the heart of the black,
smoky North, which is to the pleas.
ant London south like a foreign land.
Under it's veil of fog and smoke. the
flaming furnaces of Manchester roar
night and day, turning out steel and
shells. The Manchester district is
more impressive than anything Of the
kind America can show, because it is
more concentrated. It is as if nine,
tents cS Tie american steel business
were gathered into a single Pennsyl-
vania county.
: Baedeker says that on a clear day
you can see 600 giant factory stacks
at one time from hill near Manches-
ter. This statement has long been
suspected as the solitary bit Of humor
in the 81 ponderous volumes of Bae-
deker. 1t may be true, but it has new.
er been confirmed, because there are
no clear days in Manchester. When
all the 600 stacks are pouring forth
smoke and the fog steals down, it is
dark at noon. On a good average day
you can see for several blocks, and
only few electric lights are neces.
sary. The trolleys will probably burn
their headlights, but that is force of
habit on the part of the motorman.

DRAMA OF THE MIDDLE AGES
Miracle Plays Were Popular Among
the Great Guilds of England in
Fifteenth Century.

In England, during the middle ages,
though no theaters were built, some
forms of dramatic entertainment were
extremely popular, and were carried
on with much splendOr of dresses and
other properties. In the fifteenth cen
fury almost every one of the great
guilds or secret fraternities acted
some sort of miracle play, usually
chosen with reference to the patron
saint of the guild.
Inventories Of the theatrical proper
ties of some Of these guilds still ex-
list, and in some cases the list includes
the most gorgeous silk and gold dam
asks and magnificent damascened
armor, altogether worth in modern
money some thousands of dollars. The
story of st. George rescuing the prfn-
cess from the dragon was very favor
tie subject, the princess being clad in
the richest dress, adorned with real
jewelry of high value, and st. George
wearing very costly and elaborate ar
NOR. The dragon was an immense
monster made of leather, large enough
to contain seven or eight men, who
worked the various parts of it's body.

CoIors of the Rainbow.

The colors Of the rainbow vary ac-
cording to their size, and the size diff
fers according to the bigness of the
raindrops. Large drops produce mar
row rainbows and bright, clearly de-
fined colors. The colors are general
ly as follows: When the raindrops are
in the average one millimeter in diam
eter we see q violet, pale blue, blush
green, green, yellow, orange, pale red
and deep red rainbow; when the drops
average three-tenths millimeter, the
rainbow is violet, pale blue, blush
green, green, yellow and orange. Drops
of one-tenth millimeter produce the
succession of very pale violet, vio-
let, whitish blue, whitish green. blush
yellow and pale yellow. Drops of one
twentieth millimeter (fog) give white
tinted with violet, very vivid white,
a white tinted with yellow and very
pale yellow.

ASSISI is REMARKABLE CITY
Shows How Influence Of One Man
With an Idea Can Persist Through
the Centuries.

A remarkable city is Assist, show
ing how the influence of man with
an idea can persist down the changing
centuries. 1t is seven hundred years
and more since st. Francis lived and
died here, and yet today Assist is lit
tie besides the city of st. Francis. His
name lends it whatever fame and i'm
portance it may have, and something
of his kindly spirit seems to hang
about it still.
Assist is g. bare little Italian hill
town, built of dull stone, with narrow,
winding rocky streets, looking out over
one of the fairest prospects in all
Italy. Here st. Francis was born OF
rich parents, here he led an idle,
spendthrift youth, and here he was
suddenly seized with the idea of uni
versal brotherhood and the necessity
for poverty. Here he founded the
Franciscan order, praying that it's dis
tinctive sign might be never to pos
sess anything under the sun and to
have no means of living save by beg
ging."
He carried out his rule in strictest
practice, living in q hut Of reeds built
where now stands the church Of st.
Mary of the Angels. He felt O. great
love for all things created, so that he
hailed the sun as his brother and
preached to the fishes. All CT these in
cidents in his career and many 9th
ers are set forth in noble frescoes by
Giotto in the Franciscan church at
Assist.
In Assist, too, is the tomb OF St.
Francis, in little chapel of the Fran
ciscan monastery. The tomb is sur
rounded by beautiful marbles and rich
work in beaten bronze. The world
has loved st. Francis, but apparent
ly it has never understood him. Else
it would not in all reverence have
surrounded his vault with the rich
luxury of beauty against which his
whole life and all his teachings were
but one great protest.

TEUTONS LOSE u. S. PATENTS
American Firms Will Be Licensed to
Manufacture Drugs Invented
by Teutons.

Washington, Oct. 31.-The vast store
of German scientific information in
this country was opened today to
American manufacturers in regula-
tons issued by the federal trade COM
mission, under which enemy-Owned
patents and copyrights will be licensed
for use by citizens Of the United
States.
When the regulations had been made
public the commission met a group of
medical men to consider licensing the
manufacture of certain drugs, princi-
pally salvarsan (606), used in .virulent
blood diseases, and nontoXic substi-
tutes for local anesthetics, of which
the supply in this country has run
dangerously low since the war inter-

Origin of Order of Odd Fellows.

Details of the origin of the indie
pendent Order of Odd Fellows are OBJ
scure and probably will always remain
so. From incidents attending the extern
sion of Freemasonry in England, Amer
lea and elsewhere in the period be-
tween it's arrival, in I'LL, and year
174O, and from similarity of emblems
and to some extent mechanical arrange
ment of ceremonials some investigators
believe that the order of Odd Fellows
was an offshoot of Freemasonry. First
recorded lodge was in England in 1745.
It's membership consisted Of mechanics
and laborers. Provisions were made
for comfort and recreation of members
and practices of contributing to relief
of needy and unfortunate brethren be-
gan early.-Exchange

WHEN A COLD Is NOT A COLD
IL 1t Lasts Longer Than Three Days
1t Is "NasaI Sinusitis," De-
clares Physician.

"A cold in the head which lasts
longer than three days is no longer
such, but nasal sinusitis," said DR..
John j. Hurley of Boston in an address
reported in the Medical Record.
Doctor Hurley was arguing that
grippe" and influenza were nothing
but an inflammation of the sinuses of
the face, that labyrinth of the passages
in the bones of the nose, cheeks and
forehead which empty into the nose or
pharynX. After comparing all the
classic symptoms of influenza as de-
scribed in the textbooks with those of
sinusitis and pointing out their SINH
larity if not identity, he called ''influ-
enza" and grippe" the "alibis of ig-
nOrance"
The familiar Influenza bacillus dis
covered by Pfeiffer is found in many
but by no means all cases of so-called
grippe. 1t has a spe al affinity for the
sinuses of the nose. But there are
many other bacilli-all of the pus-
forming kinds-that produce the same
effects
Sinusis is nothing but the formation
Of an abscess in the sinuses The pa
tient needs no drugs what he needs is
to have the sinuses emptied. This is
easy in nearly all cases; a specialist
can open the swollen passages with a
cotton pledget on the tip of a bougie
and generally nothing more is needed
than the touching of the passages with
nitrate of silver. Once they begin to
discharge their pus freely the cure is
rapid. Cases in which an operation is
necessary are the rare exception.
