THE WAR CITIES

Rheims, a city OF France, Of the
department Of the Marne, 80 miles by
rail northeast Of Paris. The town is
well planned and built, and its streets
are traversed BY tramways.
Since the Franco Prussian war the
town was surrounded with detached
forts that render il a great entrancb-
ed camp. One that IN the present
war the Germans have been unable
TO pass.

OUR TROUBLES.

Our troubles come like storms,

away.
With the sunshine sparkling
round US in the glory of
the day.
They seem to threaten danger,
And the darkness brings us
fear;
But we rise up in the morn
; To a sky that's sweet and
clear.
We cringe before the tempest
and We shrink in fear and
dread.
Our troubles flee like shad-

When we least expect them

And the storms have left the

And the bonny skies are :

The love that reaches patience
gives US strength to trust

And that's the way with trou- :

When We most expect the
blow.
The storm is but a bubble

Mr.. Randall says that he can't say
that this has been done or will be
done, but he don't dare to suggest that
1t cannot be accomplished. Light,
heat and rays of other kind can be
reflected. He concludes by saying:
"Once this problem is solved there
Will be no war. If the allies were pos
sessed of equipment that would permit
the arcing at distance of powerful
electric currents, the war would be
won in 30 days and allied troops would

terrible death engine invented by an
Italian scientist. Dazzling swords of
fire, more deadly than are highest ex.
plosives, followed by annihilating ex-
plosions, are capable of destroying en-
emy trenches with one binding flash,
according to his claims. Mine sweep
ers equipped with this device could
fire mines thousands of yards distant.

be used to form most successful bar
rage and could wipe out the defenders

The scientist is credited with hav-

manner as to produce the results de-

In describing the results of these

IN the Illustrated World, says that the
scientist was asked to burn through
three-inch plank of hardwood. In
an instant, the writer says. the plank
was scared and broken as lie 1t had

Officials then asked the scientist to
explode two bombs, one hidden along

minutes the bomb along the bank ex-

Just as surely as time is running
short to buy merchandise at these
prices, so surely are supplies of good
goods in the market running short,
because all things give way before the
government and many mills are now

derstand what a curtailment of out

it means a further advance in prices.
Apart altogether from any further
curlai}ment of output productive costs
are rising and rising. Then this is
lime when a merchant must be very
frank and make things aas clear as
possible.
Outing the past three or four
mnrths, in spite of the diminishing
output secured for us, thirty to thirty
five thousand dollars worth of the
best merchandise to be had in this
country for the price, together with
out regular stocks in hand, these
great new purchases constitute what
is reaas onably believed to be an as
