Identifying Us.

We travel but seldom. When We
do adventure out of our beaten path
we love to go in style. Just before we
made a recent trip we discovered that
our faithful gripsack presented an ap-
pearance Of premature senility. An
obliging relative, who Is retired
farmer, volunteered to refurbish 1t
with an embrocation which he had
evolved for use as a harness dressing
or hair restorer. we have forgotten
which. When applied the preparation
smelled somewhat obtrusively, but our
kinsman assured us that the odor
would soon pass away. With our reti-
Guile glossily bedaubedt we took our
seat In the train. By this time we
had become used> to the scent, and
ceased to notice it. Presently VEN
cradle citizen OF Tywoppity seated
himself beside us. We gave him our
views Of the weather, the war and
sundry other subjects. 1T wouldn't
surprise me if you was mighty smart
man." our seatmate eventually obs
served. you're a horse doctor, amt
ye? You shore smell like one."-Kan-

Tn view of the importance of farming, CTS ought to be exempted from war service2'
 "No, a thousand times no," said Un- cle Dan, striking the table so hard to emphasize his protest that he tipped over vase of flowers. 'We must have no class legislation. The duty to serve is the common duty of all, and no class must be relieved of this ob- ligation. The question of exemption must be personal one and decided by the facts surrounding each case. In no other way can we have square deal, and to insure this, it is the duty of congress to pass immediately the Chamberlain bill, OF some such meas ure which is fair to all classes. It would settle all these questions and do it fairly. Safety now and safety hereafter demands such legislation, and let me suggest that you and your friends get busy with your congress- man and senators and urge them to prompt action.
 "It is time for us to realize that we are not living in a fools paradise; that this great country of ours cost oceans of blood and treasure and it is only due to the loyalty, sacrifice and service of our forefathers that we have a country, and it is our highest duty to preserve it unimpaired and pass it on to posterity, no matter what the cost may be. Our citizenship and their ancestors came from all parts of the world to make this country a home and enjoy it's blessings and opportu- mites; hence, in the crisis before us, it is the duty of everyone to stand squarely back of our country and be prepared to defend the flag. Every one in this crisis is either pro-Ameri- can or pro-German. Great as the coun- try is, there is not room enough for TWO flags"

SEEKS LIGHT WITHOUT HEAT
Biological Department of Princeton University Hopes to Fathom Mys-
 tery of Luminous Animals.

Long strides are being taken by the biological department of Prince ton university to obtain light with out heat, says the Electrical Experi- menter. If the discovery fully real- izes it's expectations 1t will doubtless revolutionize modern lighting.
 Profs. Edwin Conklin, Ulric Dahl gren and Edmund N. Harvey are working on luminous animals in an attempt to fathom the cause of their luminosity, which is 99 per cent light. Modern electric light pro- duces only from 3 to per cent light, the rest being wasted in heat.
 Professor Harvey obtained con- siderable quantity of the luminous material from small fish found in Japan. He has partly analysed the substance, finding that like the pro- teids of the living bodies it can be kept for years by drying it and seal ing 1t in vacuum tubes. When re- leased, moistened and exposed to oxygen it will light into clear, bluish phosphorescent flame.
 The substance is very powerful, as it is still visible when one part of it is diluted in 1,70O,OO0 parts of water.

COMPARES TOMMY AND PoILU
Writer Asserts That Alongside That of French, English Face Looks Stupid
 -Latter's Body Angular.

At the Care de Lyon poilus are taking trains for the South. This is our first real sight of them in their tired glory. They look weary and dusty and strong; every face has character, no face looks empty, or as if it's thought were being done by others. Their laughter is not vulgar or thick. Alongside their faces the English face looks stupid, the Eng fish body angular and neat. They are loaded with queer burdens, bread and bottles bulge their pockets; their blue-gray is prettier than khaki, their round helmets are becoming.
 Our Tommies, even to our own eyes, seem uniformed, but hardly two out of all this crowd are dressed alike. The French soldier luxuri- ates in extremes; he can go to his death in white gloves and dandyism he can glory in unshavenness and patches. The words "in extremis" seem dear to the French soldier; and con amore he passes from one extreme to the other. One of them stands gazing up at the board which gives the hours of starting and the destinations of the trains. His tired face is charming, and has look that I cannot describe-lost, as it were, to all surroundings; Welshman or a Highlander, but no Englishman, could look like that.-John Gals worthy, in Atlantic Magazine.

YEAR BUT OUTLOOK
ENCOURAGING

The universitys school of practical
agriculture opened yesterday with an
enrolment of Al, exactly 20 less than
the total registration Of last year.
Sixteen of the students enrolled are

cipal of the school, this morning.
Several students have written to in
form me that they will be unable to
reach the university until Friday or
Saturday and feel sure that others
will arrive unheralded within the
next few days.
'Of course, war conditions have
had tendency to deplete our roll but
there is every reason to belive that it
will be quite as near normal as the
registration in any other department
of the university"
are women enrolled in the course in
household arts, three are taking the
short course in draiying and the re-
meinder has decided upon agricultural
work. The class to be graduated at

PETROGRAD - Premier Kerensky
told the preliminary Russian parlia-

curing an honorable peace by Christ
mas. The premier in his address to
the parliament declared:
eff unconscious fanatics, assisted by
conscious traitors, had not destroyed
the fruits of democracy military eff
forts, we would have had an honorable
peace by Christmas"
General Alexieff, the former COM
'mander of the army, declared that
Russia is passing through this painful
period because the nations spirit is
overwhelmed with the idea that Rus
sia cannot continue the war.
The local workmen's and soldiers
council adopted a resolution declar-
ing that Premier Kerensky conspired
to surrender Petrograd to the Ger
mans to lay the blame on the Bolshev
Xxi radicals.
