Safety Chain Which VIII Anchor Wal

From sad experience, many a man

let is attached to the safety chain de-
scrlbed In the Popular Science Month

without taking the coat along, tool
A fine steel chain connects the wal
let with the coat pocket When you
pocket your wallet, this chain is wound
up on a spring-revOlved drum in a very
thin casing which is sewed to the bot
tom Of the pocket. The chain, which
has its free end secured to your pocket
book, is about foot long, so that you
can draw 1t out conveniently. Should
a pickpocket attempt to rob you, the
rug on the chain would betray him.

TAXING FILMS IN BELGIUM
Germans Take Pictures Showing Sol
dlers Distributing Bread Among
Hungry Populace.

That seeing is not necessarily believ.
ing, where a motion picture camera Is
employed for purposes of Influencing
public opinion, Is shown by an article
in the Princeton Alumni, describing a
visit to a Belgian village, occupied by
German troops. The correspondent
writes:
In the middle of the scene was
little line of ragged Belgian men, wom-
en- and children. They had been gath
cred from the nearby streets. They
seemed much frightened. Appeared a
dozen underofficers and privates car
rying loaves of bread. These they
thrust into the hands of the people In
the line, while in a corner the clicking
camera recorded the touching scene, to
be shown In Germany and Austria and
In neutral countries throughout the
world, Of "Kind-Hearted Prussians
Feeding the Belgian Populace."
That was what the camera showed.
But what 1t did not show were the
fields of Kansas and Manitoba, or the

had brought the wheat that had been
converted into the flour from which
those loaves were made, or the Amer
lean dollar sign indicating who had
paid for the lOaves, or even the Bel
gian agents to whom the distribution
was the morning and evening work.
That day these agents had been thrust
aside and their bread taken from
them. "On this OCCASION, they were
told, "our soldiers will perform your
task. You can leave the loaves and
go home" thought l had a story to
tell. l was disappointed when my de-
scriptlon fell rather fiat. ave have
heard all about 1t before" men in
formed me. "That comedy is being
staged from time to time all over Bel

lures, but we wish they would leave
our bread alone"

Iapan RaIsIna medicinal Herbs.

Prices of all medicines have In
creased to such a degree In Japan
since the outbreak Of the war that
the japanese Medical Investigation
association has undertaken, with the
aid of the department Of home af-
fairs, to stimulate the growth OF
medicinal herbs of all kinds, and at
the same time TO prevent the expor-
tation of all medicines from the coun-
try. The Hochl of Tokyo regrets that
Japan still has TO import medicinal
herbs 10 manufacture its medicines.
Many varieties OF these herbs are cui-
tivated in Japan, but the government
has not especially encouraged the In
dustry. AIN experimental station was
established In Tokyo about 1888, many
Of the plants being brought from Ger
many, but the station was abandoned
In 1850. The Hochi argues that japan
can and should produce most Of her
own medicines.

After about six weary rounds between

OF the buffers reply, and said he'd just

peeaylno Wood Injuries Tree Roots.

Decaylng wood and old dead roots
in soils is often the home of mycelium
and other decay fungus, which become
parasitic ON the roots Of fruit trees
and shrubs and produce rots which
cannot otherwise be accounted for.
This parasitic action has been traced
to wounds on tree roots, but invesu-
gators have usually passed It by, as
the organisms found were considered

source from decaying wood In the soil
not considered.
