DEPORTING A WHOLE NATION
Kaiser, in Action Toward Belgium, is
Partly Following Style First Set
by King Sargon.

Only few years ago, comparative
ly, the great King Sargon was held by
critics to be biblical myth, a monarch
who never ruled Assyria, but excava-
tons in that ancient land confounded
the alleged historical experts, says the
Newark News. And now comes along
no less an authority than John Dyne-
ley Prince, former statesman Of New
Jersey, master Of some twenty ancient
and modern tongues, and head of a
department in Columbia university,
calling attention to the fact that Sar-
gon first set the style Of deporting a
whole nation that is being partly fol-
lowed by the kaiser in Belgium.
It was some 1900 years ago that
Sargon carried the ten tribes of Israel
out Of the promised land and filled up
their country with Arabs and tribes
from northern Asia Minor, and he did
such a good job that the Jews never
came back. History, however, does
not always repeat itself, as witness

The article was very sympathetic and
referred to the mobile patriotism"
of Henning in going to prison and

Food for the Doc.

Meat is the natural diet Of the wild
dog and should be an important item
in the sporting dogs diet, observes
Outing. So long as 1t is untainted it
makes little difference whether it is
horse, beef or mutton, but pork is not
SO good, and any quantities Of fat
should not be fed. Generally it is
best to cook the meat in sort of
stew with vegetables mixed, but occa.
sionally dinner of raw lean meat is
welcome change and serves as O
tonic and mild laxative. During the
hunting season it is mighty good
Sunday dinner for the shooting dog.

SEIZURE OF HOUSEWIVES
FOOD STOCKS IMPOSSIBLE


The government has never consid
cred any plan of Selling foodstuffs
owned by householders. Nor is there
any policy of this kind suggested for
the fnsure.
In spite of this fact, the United
States food administration has been
obliged repeatedly to issue official de-
malls Of rumors that the government
intends communicating preserves and
canned goods put mp in American
homes.
These rumors were originated partly
by pro-German propagandists and part
ly by constituencies grafters. who
sought to profit through buying from
inisinformed housewives.
The year 1918 will see home canning
and and preserving piaetticed On greater
scale than ever before in the nations
history, officials in Washington believe.
And they are assuring all patriotic
