DESTINED TO BECOME DESERT
Great French Colonial Territory In.
North Africa Seems to Hold Out
Lizzie Promise.

Wadai was the last point of colonial
expansion of the French before the Eu-
ropean struggle drew their energies
and attention homeward. The great
African territory was added to the
French Kongo only short time before
the war broke out.
Very few white people have actually
visited Wadai, but tales of the region
are numerous both In upper Egypt and
in Tripoli. Occasionally some Of the In
habitants of the little-known region
can be seen In the bazaars of Khartum
or Algiers. Wadai lies at the
head of caravan routes that cross the
desert both from the Mediterranean
and the Nile. It bears bad reputa-
ton, even for North Africa.
1t Is known as one of the last strong
holds and sources of supply of the
slave trade Its people are divided
into conQuerors and conquered-the
former belonging to powerful ma
tive tribe that holds the Mohammed-
an faith and the latter including all
manner of very primitive savages. Up
to very recent times these savage peo-
pie are known to have been captured
and sold as slaves along the Barbary
coast. The French only established a
In 1912, so that they had
title opportunity to break up the
rade before the European war.
In physical appearance Wadai is de-
'cribed by the caravan men as vast,
ow-lying plain. Great tracts Of 1t have
lever been explored. 1t seems to have
nee formed the bed of great inland
ea, Of which Lake Chad, in the south
vest, is the shriveled remnant. In
act, the Sahara Is steadily encroach-
ng on 1t from the northward. 1t is
rossed by the old channels Of several
ivers, but without a single flowing
tream. At no very remote geologic
pooh of the future Wadai will appar.
ntly become part OF the great des-
TT to the north.

"CHEAT-B BREAD"

Many names are suggested for the
new bread, but there is not, nor is
there likely to be. any agitation for
the revival of the name it once bore
cheat or cheat-bread. Notwith-
standing that Drayton in his POLY
olbion" calls it common cheat, the
term is not as disparging as it looks.
lt>was probably derived from the
French "scheter," for it meant
bought bread. Bakers were permit
ted to make it from flour not quite
so finely bolted Cor sifted) as that
used in the houses of the rich, and SO
it contained the ingredients found in
the war bread of today. Still, it
ranked next to the manchet, which
was made from the finest white flour.

ANCIENT BIRDS WERE GIANTS
incapable Of Flight, but Of Immense
Proportions and Evidently Great
Physical Power.

Insofar as birds are concerned.
some of the oldest fossils, in the mat
ter of time (Miocene), which have
fallen into the hands of science, are
those representing great fightless
fossil avian giants of Patagonia in
South America. They belong to the
Phororhacidae.
Judging from such parts of their
fossil bones as have been found, they
were evidently great terrestrial birds
of prey. Some of the species were
small, but this is made up for by the
others; and in the case of one of
them (Bronttornis), it had a thigh
bone considerably larger and longer
than that of an OK.
Of all the remarkable fightless
birds of this group, however, was the
giant Phororhacos; it must have
been over eight feet in height, with
skull bigger than that of full
grown horse, and much deeper than
above downwards. We know little
or nothing of these birds or what led
to their extinction. With its great
size, Phororhacos must havesbeen a
terror to the animals upon which it
preyed. Skulls and some other bones
OF this bird have been discovered

If we are to credit the testimony on
the subject offered by naturalists, man
is not the only animal who carries on
his warfare by means of organized
bands, and calls in the forces of ma
ture to assist him. There have been
witnessed in Africa fights that were

In form, |. e., balloons.
One naturalist was stoned out of
pass in a very few minutes by these
creatures, who sprang upon lodges and
stones, looked down for a few. mo-
ments on the valley, growing, snarl-
ing and screaming, and then began to
roll down stones with SO much vigor
and adroitness that the intruders took
to flight. The balloons evidently knew
the value of cooperation, for the nat
uralist saw two of them combine their
efforts in order to set a particularly
heavy stone rolling. One monkey,
bent on making the most of his mis-
sile, was seen to carry a stone up
tree, that he might hurl 1t with great
err force.
Once, while some balloons were
crossing valley, they were attacked
by dogs, and, as is usual during
march, the females and young were in
the center, the males heading the col
umn and bringing up in the rear. As
the dogs rushed upon them the males
turned and faced their enemies, growl-
ing, beating the ground with their
hands, and opening their mouths wide,
so as to show their glittering teeth.
They looked so fierce and malignant
that the dogs-Arab greyhounds, ac-
custonied to fight successfully with n.y.
enas and other beasts of prey-shrank
back. By the time they had been en-
couraged to renew the attack, the
whole herd had made their way, cover
ed by the rear guard, to the rocks, one
six-months-old monkey excepted.
This little monkey sat on rock sur
rounded by the dogs; but he was not |

NO FEAR OF DETERIORATION
Many Excellent Reasons Why the Eng
ilsh. Language VIII Maintain
Its Supremacy.

Referring to the fears of certain
scholars that the English language
will deteriorate because English
speaking people are SO widely scat
tered, Brander Matthews says in the
Yale Review:
I'VE are led to the conclusion
that the dispersion of those who
speak English is not now a danger
or even q disadvantage. We can see
that there may even be advantage for
standard English in that it can
adopt, whenever it sees fit, the new
words first tried out in one or anoth-
er OF its separate territories. These
new words are at first only localisms,
British or American or Australian.
They may not survive for long; they
may remain localisms doomed to
perish sooner or later; or they may
be adopted at last by the main body
OF those who speak English and who
write it. Cad and fad were at first
only localisms, struggling for exist
ence and getting slowly into use spo-
radically In England, until at last
they achieved peaceful penetration
INTO the United States; then they
ceased to be mere Criticisms; they
won recognition as useful words
worthy OF admission into standard
English. A like fate has ,Ssfallen
boss and boom, the first localism of
New York descended from the days

CHANCES In Mems Clothes.

Fashion is doing Its bit too. The
International Custom Cutters conven.
ton ruled out patched pockets, belts
and turned-up trousers. If they would
only 60 back to the old-fashioned shirt
cuffs, sew the buttons on the trousers
on the outside Of the waist band, and
take off yard or two Of the fourth
hand neckties we would get somewhere
near where the weary are at rest. They
already have made overcoats f1t more
closely in order to save material, but
they dissipate that saving by making
sack coats trifie longer. OF course,
there is sort Of economy in long
sack coat, for in ruling out the patched
pockets all other patches are, doubt
less, included. 1t is quite hard for
fashion convention to make a mistake
II it only changes the styles.-Ohio

OUTSIDE PALE OF HUMANITY
That German Spies Can Be Classed
Only as Dangerous Reptiles, ls
Opinion Of One Writer.

1t is not dishonorable to be spy,
says the Santa Fee New Mexican. One
Of the Americans we most revere,
whose only regret was that he had but
one life to give to his country, was
shot as spy. The spy must be most
daring and coul ageous, must face ex-
traordinary perils, must have remark
able nerve and resourcefulness.
That, at least, Is the conception Of
the spy which we had until the Ger
man spy got into the game and made
the word synonymous with all that Is
most execrable In treachery and Gun.

spy has come to mean an incendiary

water, dynamiter and train wrecker.
q coward and human reptile.
The fate which made Capt. Nathan
Hale immortal is much too good for
the men whom America has sucked
and who have become vipers at the
bosom of their adopted mother. The
sooner government valves charity and
and drops hesitation and half
way measures the better for all con.
cerned.
The German who breathes word OF
disloyalty should be interned, no mat.
ter who he is; the one who conspires
against the government or its work
should be promptly put to death. We
are at war. The traitor at home helps
kill our boys at the front. Why should
the government parley with him?
