Can Count on Italy's Friendship.

Miss Amy Bernardy, member of the

responded to the call to colors, is about
to undertake the work of making
permanent provision for the care Of
children of these soldiers who were
killed or wounded. Some of these chill

them are in this country. Already
many of them are being cared for in
Italy, on private estates, and Miss

Italy's Attitude Toward Greece.

another communication from the
Italian government also was received
here today, referring to the Italian at
titude toward Greece. This dispatch,
dated June 10. states:
In official political circles it is con-
sidered that the step taken by the pro-
tecting powers against King Constan-
tine could not have been avoided in the
interest of the allies. and especially in
the interest of Greece herself. King
Constantine had put himself in a posi-
ton which prevents him from saving
his nation which he had so seriously
compromised with his personal policy
The continuation on his part Of resist
ance to the protecting powers would
have induced them to take even more
radical measures. That means that he
would have put Greece in the position
of being treated as an enemy by the
same nations, with serious prejudice to
the monarchy.
Nobody in Italy has ever denied
Greece the right of existence in full and
complete independence. On the con-
trary. if there Is a nation which has
an interest in having Greece not form
ally but effectively independent. this
nation is Italy. Italy hopes that Greece,
under the young King Alexander. will
stop representing the disturbing ele-
ment and will gather from the recent
experience sufficient elements to create
for herself. with a policy of loyalty
toward the allies, that future to which
she has q right.

FINDING THE ALTITUDE.
How Airmen Measure tho Heights to
Which They Ascend.

"uISn uoy HoSSOOs
Altimeters or Paragraphs are used by
aviators to measure the heights to
which they ascend. Both of these in
struments are constructed on exactly
the same principle as the aneroid ba-
rometer. They depend upon air pres
sure. At sea level, where the air is
much compressed by its own weight,
the pressure is about fifteen pounds to
the square inch, but at greater heights
it becomes less. The barometer is gov
erned by the pressure and so indicates
the height above sea level.
There are many forms of barometers.
The simplest is a bent tube Of glass,
shaped like a very long letter ] and
partly filled with mercury. The upper
part is closed, and the space above the
column Of mercury is a vacuum. The
lower or hook end of the tube is open
and subject to the pressure of the at
mosphere. AS the pressure becomes
less on rising above the surface, the
mercury in the long part of the tube
falls. The extent of the fall indicates
the height.
Airplanes use one of these inStru-
ments mentioned. which are practically
self registering barometcrs, and when
the airplane comes down the instru.
ment shows how high it has been car
ried.-Philadelphia Press.

Why a Horse Rolls.

Horses are fond Of rolling on the
ground, and no animal more thorough
~ shakes itself than they do. After
a roll they give themselves a shake
or two to remove anything adhering
to the coat. The habit is of much
service to horses living in open plains.
On being turned loose at the end Of a
journey an Arab horse rolls in the
sand, which acts as blotting paper, abe
sorbing exudations from the body. A
shake emoves the sand, and the coat
soon dries. Cavalrymen in hot climates
sometimes put sand on their horses as
the simplest and quickest way Of drying
them.

When the Duchess of Westminster

II have heard much about you,'' he
said. "Your worthy name is we'll known

Goose Fat.

Goose fat makes eXcellent pastry that
is absolutely free from any flavor of
the bird or Of the onion stufing. The
pastry turns out light and ''short"
when this sort Of fat is used. A Bel
gian recipe is as follows: Throw all the
fat left after drawing the goose into
cold water with a little salt as soon as
the goose is drawn. When the bird is
half done ladle off some of the dripping
before it browns or becomes strong and
as the roasting proceeds leave only
enough dripping in the pan to haste
with. Next day put the dripping, with
the fresh fat, in a stewpan, with slices
Of apple, and onion if approved. Add
salt and pepper. When done clear it
and strain it into a jar. Cover it and
keep it in a cool place.

M IN JAPAN.
The Only Lasting Title a Mar Gets
Comes When He Dies.


The Japanese have many quaint Gus
toms handed down from generation to
generation. One of the strangest is
that Of their naming ceremony. When
n month old a Japanese child gets it's
first name with ceremonial. Trumpets
are blown, and the child is borne in
great state to the family temple, and
behind the procession march the house
hold servants carrying the infants
wordrobe. The servant in the rear of
the procession bears a huge box, in
which is the priests fee. together with
three slips of paper, on which three
names are written. On reaching the
temple the names are thrown into the
air, and the first that touches the
ground is the one which the child re-
ceives.
When three years old the child is
again named, accompanied by elaborate
religious rites. At the age Of fifteen
his education is supposed to be fin
ished, and as he then enters manhood
according to japanese law he is again
named.
When he takes to business he re-
celves his business" name, by which
he is known in the commercial world,
and upon every upward step in life he
receives Il new name. II his master
happens to have the same name he
must at once change it, as it d~etracts
from his s%uperior's dignity. At his
marriage his name is altered again,
and his last and only permanent one is
that given him after death, which is
written on his tomb.-London Answers.

The Furtiye Look.

Here is something worth while for
bachelors to consider.
A Boston woman says she can detect
a bachelor as far as she can see him.
She always knows a bachelor by his
furtivc look. The furtive look, she ex-
plains, is something akin to that of q
hunted animal, always on the watch
for snares and pitfalls. Of course this
may apply only to Boston bachelors,
but it would be well for all other sin
gle u~nfortunates to take a good look
at themselves in the mirror and find
that telltale look. If they do there is
an easy way to efface it.-Claveland
