Writer Calls Attention to Truth Which
ls an indictment Of the
sterner Sex.

We men are accustomed to deride
the garrulity of women; yet I doubt
IL any women under the sun could COM
pete In loquacity with a pair or trio
or quartet of young men engaged in
the exchange Of views on metaphysics,
literature or art. We two or three or
four spent ambrosial nights, Robert
III. Gray writes in the Atlantic. There
were no problems too knotty, no
reaches of hypothesis too vast for us
to attempt. .~ilr
That was n time Of life to remenii
Der, when the mind was growing like
corn In hot weather. 1t is a pleasant
thought that all over the land there are
little bands of youths doing as we did.
I get wind of one now and then--some
boy with all the fire and foolIshness,
some girl with all the sensibillty and
sentimentalIties, by a chance look or
word carries me back, as q whit Of L.
laos or mignonette can transport rs
into our childhood.
He Is q poor man who never was
foolish. 1t Is appalling to think over
what he has missed. am glad that
there was a time when / was omnis-
Client; that there was time when an
opinion was attractive because 1t was
radical, and the miserable little vir-
tue of prudence" was not a part OF
my moral code. think 1t makes me
more charitable toward youth.
Whether 1t does or not, there can be
no doubt that the surest corrective
and sweetener of life is vivid
memory.

OWES MUCH TO WATT
Scotsman the First 10 Realize and
Make Practical the Wonderful
Power Of Steam.

"Science took tear from the cheek
Of unpaid labor, converted II Into steam
and created giant which turns with
tireless arms the countless wheels Of
toll"
Thus Ingersoll's poetic explanation
Of the origin of the transformation
Of pent-up steam into controlled and.
industrially valuable mechanical ac-
tIon. Elaborated In a more prosaic
manner, James Watt, young Scotch
man Of Glasgow, and an instrument
maker by trade, once had nm idea. II
was most revolutionary idea. Men
had been working on steam engines
for many centuries, but they had pro-
duced nothing Of any practical value.
In the engines of that period steam
was admitted into only one end of the
cylinder. and about the only use such
an engine had was to pump water. And
II wasn't very good at that. AS for
using an engine to turn wheel-why,
nobody had thought Of that. 1t sim
ply wasn't being done. But James did
1t. He let steam into both ends of the
cylinder instead Of only one, put fly
wheel on the end of shaft and a
crank on the other. and there was the
steam engine, all ready for its real
business.
Watt was born In Greenock. Scot
land, on January 10, 1916, his father
being q builder, contractor and mer-
chant.

Masculine Comfort.

A man once said that the things he
looked for In a room were a comfort
able chair, a strong writing table and a
good light. That does not seem much
for a man to want, but how many men
get It? The girls and women Of the
household decorate and furnish their
rooms to please themselves, but 1t Is
not often that very much thought or
trouble is spent on the mems rooms.
One reason that they don't think more
about It Is that as most men have these
comforts at their Offices they do not
bother to voice their opinion about
what they might have at home.
Every one who has boarding house
is rather anxious to rent the rooms to
men, as they are proverbially less trou-
BILE and easier to please than women.
How much more easily the rooms might
attract men IL they should bear In mind
the three things this man said were es-
sential to his happiness.

FRENCH GUN SCHOOL IS

Large Force of instructors AS

Paris.-An American newspaper man
who has been able to visit the artillery
training school at Fontainebleau de-
scribes the preparation the French mill
tary authorities are making In view OF
the training Of American officers.
Whereas otherwise very stiff exami-
nation is necessary to pass into the
school, In the case Of Americans special
facilities will be made. -Four months
will be required to fit the latter for the
grade OF what Is called here aspirant,
which is the grade preceding second
lieutenant. Sixteen hundred American
pupils are expected at Fontainebleau,
and a special corps Of English speaking
Instructors has already been formed so
new arrivals can start work with a
scant knowledge OF trigonometry, ele-
mentary physics and chemistry.
The ordinary procedure Is to be as
signed to a regiment of artillery. At
the depot the men are equipped with
uniforms and everything, necessary,
then sent to Fontainebleau as soon as
possible. Men anxious to avail them
selves Of this opportunity might even
come to Europe on their own initiative,
for they would be looked after by the
American military attache and the min
istry of war and would only require a
very limited outfit, consisting OF changes
of summer and winter underwear and
riding boots; If possible, also sugar.

Caution on American Destroyer.

Queenstown. American naval off,
GERS are highly amused over a recent
wireless romance" connected with an
American destroyer. The story well
exempllfies traditional sea caution and
hangs on the fact that by reason OF
two Americans having been roommates
at st. Johns college at Annapolis years
ago information was confirmed at sea
that otherwise would have remained
doubtful
One man is civilian doctor, who has
taken an important post In Great Brit
ain; the other Is a paymaster in the
navy. Two days before the destroy
ers sailed from the United States these
old friends ate a farewell dinner. The
doctor was to sail by a liner, but was
ignorant Of the ships name and date
Of sailing. The paymaster was under
orders to join his destroyer.
When several days at sea the de-
stroyer got into distant connection one
night with a certain vessel and made
a code inquiry as to the vessels posi-
ton, course and speed. No direct re-
ply was made, the vessel fearing sub
marine trick and the possibility OF a
stolen code book. Instead Of answer
ing a demand was made to the destroy
er, "Give the name Of your ship In
code" The destroyer complied.
Even this was not enough. A second
wireless was sent out. What Is the
name Of your paymaster, who Is the
friend Of DR.. -, a passenger aboard
this ship?"
Then the paymaster OF the destroyer

THE MAGIC FLUTE.

Possibly you do not know that the
elder bush is a fairy plant. 1t grows In
fairyland, and all the elderberry
bushes, or elder trees, as they used to
be called, are in the care of the elder
mother, who watches over them, re-
warding those who help and Furnishing
those who harm her children, as she
calls her elder bushes.
The fairy horns and all their musical
instruments are carved out of elder
wood. If you have ever made a whis-
tie from the elder wood you will notice
that 1t has delightfully."- mellow tone.
And once there was a little boy who
was wonderfully fond Of music. At
evening, when he took home the sheep
he had all day been watching In the
forest, he could only talk of the Won
derful music that was to be heard
there.
One day as he wandered by his ia
vorite brook In the forest he noticed
that one Of the great bushes by the
stream was broken.
Poor thing! I'll tie 1t up" said
the shepherd boy. He bound up the
broken limb, and he thought a rustic
passed through the plant.
One dag the boy lost one Of his sheep
and after taking the rest of his flock
home started back to the forest to seek
1t. After searching a long time he
found 1t asleep under the elder bush
which he had so carefully tended.
AS 1t was very late and they were
far from home, he curled down beside
the sheep and went TO sleep, and In his
sleep he had a strange dream.
In this dream lovely lady rose from
the elder bush.
II am the elder mother" she said
You have served me and mine. Now
we shall help you. Look well at this"
And she handed him flute, at which
he looked long and carefully.
When you awaken make one of the
same kind Of the wood Of the elder
bush beneath which you Sleep" she
commanded.
The boy did as he was told, and,
though he had never tried to make any
thing OF the kind before, the minute he
raised the flute to his lips he found 1t
would play the most delightful music.
Just as he began to play the king
went riding by and was so enchanted
by the music that he asked the little
boy to come with him to court and
play for him every day.
And there the boy played all the
songs which he had heard in the forest
the songs of the birds, the splashing
of the waterfalls, the MARBLE Of the
brook over the stones and the signing
of the wind through the trees-and the
whole court praised him, and the little
shepherd boy became rich and famous.

MARINES IN ACTION IN sANTo DOMINGO.
United States marines have been great
factors In initiating toward perpetual
peace among the defenseless people OF
Haiti and Santo Domingo, who were
worn out by years Of internal strife.
These advance agents of American civ.

whom ravaged the customs money
