Walk For Health,

A state board Of health advises
Take time to walk-or make time to
walk. The pernicious habit Of hopping
on a trolley car to go block or two
robs many Of the necessary health pre-
serving exercise they should have.
Walk for healthp'
The recommendation is sound, but
why should those who ride i'm automo-
biles be left out? The inveterate users
Of motorcars need to be told to walk
more quite as much as the rest Of u.s.
Nowhere is the riding habit easier to
acquire than where an automobile is at
beck and call. Even the workers who
deem the trolley car a necessity would
often be advantaged by keeping their
nickels in their own pockets and there
by inviting more physical and mental
vigor. We are all sinners when it comes
to the failure to keep I'm touch with the

loyalty is worth a pound Of cleverness.
If you vilify, condemn and eternally

From the Cellar of Life.

Do not be afraid, do not cry out, for
life Is good. L came from low down,
from the cellar of life, where darkness
and terror reign, where man is half
beast and life is only fight for bread.
1t flows slowly there, in dark streams,
but even there CLEAN pearls Of courage,
Of intelligence and Of heroism, even
there beauty and love exist. Everywhere
that man is found, good is; in tiny
particles and invisible roots-but still
it is there. All these roots will not
perish; some will grow and flourish and
bear fruit. 1 bought dearly the right
to believe this; therefore it is mine my
whole life long. And thus l have won
yet another right, the right to demand
that you, too, believe as do, for am
the voice of that life, the despairing
cry of those who remain below and
who have sent me to herald their pain.
They also long to rise to self respect,
to light and freedom.-Gorky in 1.-THE
Peasants"

Army Rifles of Eurone.

The German Mauser can fire faster
than any other rifle used by the armies
of Europe. The magazine holds five
cartridges, packed in chargers.
The British rifle is the outcome of
the South African war. 1t holds ten
cartridges and is sighted from 200 to
$500 yards.
The Italian Mannlicher-C arcano is
rather slow, discharging but fifteen
rounds of shot a minute.
The French Lebel is the longest rifle.
The tube magazine under the barrel
holds eight cartridges. The bullet used
in it weighs 1913 grains.
The Russian rifle is seven inches
longer than the British. 1t is capable
Of firing twenty-four bullets to the min
ute. The bayonet is always fixed.
The Austrian rife is the lightest of
all, yet its bullet, pa grain, is the
heaviest used by any Of the powers. 1t
is very rapid in action.
The Belgian Mauser Of 1889 holds
five cartridges carried in clips. 1t can
not be used as single loader. II
weighs over eight pounds.

Qeanarate Warriora.

1t has long been moot point whether
single or married men make the best
soldiers. Some maintain that the lack
OF wife and family tends to make a
man more reckless Of his life, therefore
good soldier. Others say that the
married man is almost q veteran when
he enters the ranks, being Injured to
combat, therefore a good soldier. A
French colonel was once questioned
upon this point. Both are right" said
he. Look yonder! Do you see that
battalion Of happy, devil-may-care fel-
lows? They are all single men, and
they would take their lives in their
hands. But look again! Do you see
those taciturn, somber, gloomy looking
men there? They are all married, and
in a hand to hand fight they are ter

Pot and Kettle.

There is a proverb much heard now
adays that we never could see the sense
of, The pot can't call the kettle black"
Why not, we should like to know? The
kettle is black. 1t ought to be called
black. Who has a better right to speak
with confidence about the faults Of the
kettle than the pot, which has for years
hung on the same crane and inhaled
the same smoke? II there Is anything
that would make the pot seem less
sooty in our eyes it is giving us a clear
reflection OF the image Of the kettle.
Shall no one point out blackness any
where unless he knows himself to be
speckless? Would the pot rise in our
estimation if it followed the custom
Of its critics and said, The kettle is
white, as white as am?"-Independ-

COLONY of Cousins.

In Catlin bay, close to the great rock
Of Gibraltar, there is a colony so unique
that 1t stands out almost as a tribe dis
tinct in itself. Many generations ago,
during storm, fleet of Genoese fish
ermen put into the sheltered spot and
so escaped the fury Of the sea. In the
boats, so history has it, were many wO-
men, and they became so enamored of
the spot that huts were built and they
remained. Hundreds Of years have
passed, and the little tribe still fingers
on. 1t is colony Of cousins, dwelling
apart in the shadow Of a great rock
and going down to the sea In ships to
earn a hard won livelihood.

Ms colonization in 1889 by mutineers
~ the British warship Bounty and Ia

the Pacific about midway between
Panama and New Zealand, is to re-

The historic event is announced In the

Postmaster Morgan advises that the
steamship Australplain will sail from
New York on or about March Is, 1917.
Via the Panama canal for Pitcairn Is

twenty-five days Of the date Of sailing.
He issues this notice In order that the
patrons OF the postal service may take
sdvantage OF this unusual opportunity
for the expeditions dispatch OF mail
for the place named"
It Is not likely that the mail to Pit
cairn island will be heavy one, since
only one Pitcairn islander, Miss Emily
Mccoy, has ever visited the United
States to make friends here. Miss
Mccoy left the island about fifteen
years ago to study nursing. Probably
she will be the only person in the

ROAD BULLETINS FOR
CALIFORNIA MOTORISTS

WASHINGTON, April 2.-BeginninG
early this month the San Francisco
office of the Forest Service will issue
weekly reports on the condition Of
the principal automobile roads in the
National Forests of California. This
information will be obtained from the
Forest rangers and will be furnished
to newspapers, press associations, au
tomobile clubs, hotels, and other in
terested organizations. by which it will
be made available to motorists.
The twenty National Forests in
California comprise more than 19,500,-
600 acres of land and contain approx.
imtely $500 miles Of road. There are
in addition $500 miles of trail which
make accessible the more remote
regions. Many Of these roads pene
trate large stretches of wild noun
tain country where thousands of peo-
pie go each summer to escape the
heat of the lower valleys.
The present roads are to be supple
mented by others, made possible by
the Federal Aid Road Act, one sec.
ton Of which provides million DIAL
lars a year for ten years for the con-
struction Of roads in or near the Ma
tional Forests in all the States. or
this fund a total of $2S1,751 has been
apportioned to California for the fiscal
years 1918. To provide an adequate
road system for the California Ma
tional Forests the District Forester at
San Francisco has tentatively esti-
mated that the construction or repair
of S37 miles of road would be re-
quired OF this amount 663 miles
would be in the National Forests and
the remainder in the nearby locali-
ties. The roads are intended primarily
for the purpose Of developing the re-
sources of the National Forests, but
would also open up new areas to
tourist travel

Is ullS-
ding" The lieutenant jots down few
words. the description is flashed TO ev-
cry detective headquarters, and the
search for another missing person"
IN on.
Ruth Cruger, pretty high school girl,
was sought by the police. Leaving her
home, happy and contented, she was
swallowed up in the swirl Of the great
city and no clews to her whereabouts
had been unearthed. Because her fam
fly is of prominence and because Of her
fathers insistence the case was widely
discussed and given much publicity,
but the case Of Ruth Cruger was only
one Of hundreds.
Every year there are $500 missing
persons in New York, according to po-
lice estimates. Most Of the missing
persons are girls-pretty, happy girls,
youthful and OF good home training.
They are swallowed in the highways
and byways OF the mammoth CITY,
Most OF them never return, and the
public hears of the disappearance of
bat very few.
Dorothy Arnold went shopping on
Fifth avenue one afternoon in 1910
No one saw her leave q certain shop
she entered, and the four corners Of
the globe have been searched for her
They still seek her.
Ruth Wheeler needed a job, and she
answered an advertisement Her bat
tered little body was found days later,
and a ne'er do well, Wolter, was later
put to death for her murder.
The hacked up body Of Anna Aumul-
Ter was found in the river Hundreds
OF anxious mothers and fathers viewed
her body. believing ii might be their
daughter. Her slayer was also exc
cuted.
These are but a few Of the hundreds
OF missing. Why missing? Police an
swer-white slavery, lack of courage to
face disgrace, failure at business, fam
Hy troubles, broken faith, disappointed
love, wanderlust and the lure of adven-
tire.
Do they come back? Police say of
the $500 or more who disappear each
year perhaps a little more than half
return or are found. The other half?
They seem to vanish.
The telephone bell OF the lieutenant's
desk at police headquarters buzzes-
