ports that a gigantic war monument
to commemorate fallen Silesian SOL
diers is to be erected in the heart Of

New Menace.

An oldtime son Of the Fatherland
was reading the evening news after
the days work was ended. CHANGING
over the various headlines, his eyes
fell on one which threatened to call for
the services of Sherlock Holmes or
a Philo Gubb. .....
He read and reread, muttering the
puzzling words over and over to him
self. He wiped his glasses, turned up
the light and looked again. But the
words read exactly the same.
Some terrible thing had fallen on
the front Of a street car at Niagara
Falls and killed motorman. The old
Germans son just then stepped into
the room, and was amazed to hear his
father say "Well, I'll be hanged-Ic-
kick-Ic-kick-kel. What in the - is
an ic-kick-kelY
The son took the paper and read
that large icicle, breaking from the
gorge, had fallen on the passing car
and had killed the motorman.

Grated. We cannot increase the strength
Of our muscles hy sitting in a gym

TO stand alone as the habit of leaning

The man who tries 10 give his chill

will not have so hard a time as he
had is unkncwingly bringing disaster
upon them. What he calls giving them
a start will probably give them set

They are naturally leaners. imitators,
copiers. and it is easy for them to de-
