Could Exterminate Germans.

Experiments made since the German
bombardment of Armentieres with n
mysterious gas shell have disclosed
that the poison WAS arslne, known in
the laboratory rs arsenurctcd hydro
gen, one of the deadliest fumes known
to the chemists, according to trench
correspondent.
In ArmeBtleres the gas from the
shells continued It's deadly work for
nearly week, although the shells
were all thrown In one hour. More
than 1000 men, women and children
died, many in commissions and many
stark mad.
The significant fact In regard to the
nrsIne bomb which the Germans likely
overlooked is that while the amount OF
the drug in Germany Is limited. the al
lies have limitless supplies. II Britain
md France wish to retaliate they could
in less than year manufacture these
bombs In sufficient quantities to XIII
every living thing in the German en-
pire.
1t would be question only Of get
ting enough airplanes to carry and
drop them.

Student Would Not Be influenced by
Any Pleasures the World Could
offer Him.

Now behold the student coming up
the street, He is clad in rubber and
shining black. He is thin of shank as
becomes a scholar. He says with
knowledge. He hungers for wisdom.
He comes opposite the book shop. 1t
is but coquetry that his eyes seek the
window Of the tobaccOnist. His heart,
you may be sure, looks through the
buttons at his back.
At last he turns, Charles s. Brooks
writes in Yale Review. He pauses
on the curb. Now desire has clutched
him. He tngles his trousered shil-
llngs. He treads the gutter. He squints
upon the rack. He lights upon a
treasure. He plucks 1t forth. He
is unresOlved whether to buy it or to
spend the extra shilling on his dinner.
Now all you cooks together to save

CHICKENS FOR EMPTY CANS
Trading Of Discarded Tins and BottIes
for Food Is Common in ThIbet,
Explorer Reports.

Bringing with him an extensive col
lection of small mammals. reptiles and
birds, Roy c. Andrews. head of the
Asiatic geological expedition, has ar
rived in New York, after Il year and
a half in the remote provinces of
China.
The expedition spent much of the
time in the mountains of Yunnan and
progressed as far as Thibet. Mr.. An
drews' adventures included everything
from hunting blue" tigers TO buying
chickens at the rate of two for one
empty condensed milk can.
Politically China is in chaotic
state, Mr.. Andrews reports, as most of
the provinces are so far removed from
the central government at Picking that
any change of authority does not
make itself felt, Socially, he declares,
1t is overrun with bandits. most of
whom are recruits from the army AC-
cording to Mr.. Andrews, there is no
great moral difference between II Chi
nese common soldier and bandit.
In many places he found traffic by
water impossible because the army has
u habit of Using small river boats for
target practice.
The expedition found the border of
Thibet an ideal place to live in. Food
may he bought with old bottles and
cans. There are plenty of servants
and no rumor of the war has pene-
trated that far.

19-CYIlnder Engine.

BY leaps and bounds the stationary
type airplane engines are increasing
in power rating in the stern cOmpeti-
ton between the central powers and
the allied nations. In England Louis
Coatalen has been doing commendable
work along these lines, and among his
latest products is the 18-cylinder Sun
beam-C atalen engine, which develops
ATS brake horse power, and has no
fewer than half dozen magnet0s and
an equal number Of carburetOrs, says
the Scientific American. The arrange
ment of the cylinders Is interesting
Twelve Of the cylinders are arranged
as ia the usual twin-six practice while
the remaining six are arranged In the
upper center, forming what is styled
the broad arrow" type.
