 "H'm!" said her husband. The next time Mrs. Lamphead calls you're not at home! Never. never be at home to 8 lady who sold you her h0usel No matter how much she needed the money she will always con- sider you in the light of an intruder and next door to sneak thief!
 Didn't I ever relate to you the hor-
 rfble tale of the Panfeits and Mrs, Bingie It kept 8 whole summer re- sort stirred up for two seasens-the season while the affair was going on and the season duhing which people gradually forgot about 1t.
 Mrs. Bingle was an elderly person left alone in the world with a. small life insurance and the huge rambling array of acres on the lake, which ir days of prosperity her husband had bought with the idea of a manor and peacocks on the lawn, but he nevel achieved more than a weirdly uncom, fortable small cottage and a 10-cen patch of vegetables.
 T imagine that the Bingles got jus as much pleasure out of their plant for future grandeur as though the,

 When the Panfeits up and bough l Bingle Banks the colony thought the. were lunatics, pure and simple. Tn grass had not been cut for years. al the trees needed pruning, fences wer down and altogether it was sad spot
 People said Mrs. Bingle certainly wa lucky--and then began to bestow at tention on the Panfeits.

of Admiralty after I had joined it as Second Sea Lord, and there was mo- body in a responsible position who agreed that the German Navy would really do such a thing as Lord Fisher predicted.
 Well, Lord Fisher was right, as in many cases, and the Navy was unpre- pared to deal with the submarine in that particular direction. But even if the words of Lord Fisher had been believed there was no time to intro duce measures which would have effectually stopped the submarine from getting out. and that Is the only way to deal with them. There is no royal road to the saving of your mer- chant ships from the submarine once the latter has got out of it's harbor. The only royal road is to block him in, and that is an impossible operation.
 But the British Navy was faced with it's task, and it did it's best. It is a superhuman task, because the submarine is a craft which can go under water for "A hours and lie under water for 48 hours. and you don't know where she is.
 People have asked me recently why our losses in the Irish Sea are SC heavy. The reason is this: There is much shoal water in the Irish Sea, sc that the submarine can find plenty o1 places where they can can drop right to the bottom and sit there without s sound. In deep water they can't dc that, because submarine can't safely go deeper than i50 or 200 feet, ane can't lie still unless she goes to the bottom. To keep submerged in deer l water, she must keep her engines going.
 Well, in the Irish Sea a submarine sinks a ship and gets a craft aftel her. Our ship hunts her out, but al soon as things get too hot for tn, l U-Beat, she dives and sits quietly a the bottom until her troubles are over l Our ship must after a time go bael
 to port to fuel Then up comes tn,
 U-boat again and continues her ne
 farious career. Than is the difficult, in that particular locality. She cal sit on the bottom for 49 hours if sh
 likes, and then come up in some othe part of the sea.
 Similarly. the difficulty of keepin;
 them to their own ports is aecenuat
 ed.
 by the fact that the water in an around the Heliogoland Eight fer radius of 150 miles is of a depti
 in which the submarine can sit at tn
 bottom. Assuming that we had sufficient number of craft thorough
 to patrol that area, which stretehe
 something like BOO miles from Den mark to the Dutch Islands. we shout still have to meet this difficulty.
 Immediately you tackle a subma rine he dives to the bottom and wait Iuntil night, when he can come up an
 continue his course without bein
 seen. At night, even on the suffae, a submarine can only be seen for distance of about 200 yards.''

 bringing visitors from the hetel. She
 said she wanted to show them where

She would sigh over the phiox ber- ders and say how honaesick they made her end at afternoon tea time she would Fegale Mrs. Panfeit's guests with tales of how proud Mr. Binsie always 1 had been of that lawn.

AMERICANS CAN

GUS references to their scanty number

and the Berlin Vorwaerts, respective
ly, report on the testimony of German
soldiers themselves that the Ameri-
cans are cool and daring In attack,

have performed what is asserted to be
the remarkable feat Of "for a mo-
ment causing a whole American divis-
ion to waver," and wass only stopped
by fresh American reserves and the
advent Of sixty battle planes
The American attacks, whenever
they occur. are represented as fail
ures by these correspondents. Schuer-
mann says that the latest he hears is
that Metz whose new governor,
Lieutenant General Lequis, was ap-
pointed yesterdays to be a Christ
mas present for President Wilson.
Describing the Argonne fighting, the
feature Of which was the employment
of large numbers of light tanks,
Schuermann says that the Americans
thought tank war good sport. The
Germans thought 1t equally good sport
to pick them OFF with tank guns and
mines and especially with hand gre
nades.
The American prisoners, Rooster
says, behave quietly and decently.
The officers say. according to Rooster,
that America had no grudge against
the German people and when asked
whether America would have come in
