Why the Leaves Turn Red

r. S.-What causes the leaves to
turn red in autumn?
An examination Of the withered
leaves Of the autumn foliage at the
time of their turning red shows that
they contain more sugar and less
starch than in midsummer. Leaves of
evergreens, however, lost their red
tints with the return Of the warm sea-
son, and reassumed their green color.
In these plants-i. e., the holly and ivy
the sugar of the leaf is transformed
into starch in sprinxtime. From these
observations two differences can be
drawn-frst, that the red coloring sub
stances are probably Of the nature Of
the glucoses, being in most cases COM
pounds Of fannie substances with
sugar; second, the chief physical con-
ditions for the formation Of the red
color are sunshine, which. ON the one
hand, enhances the assimilation and
production of sugar, and, on the other
hand. quickens the chemical process
that leads to the formation of the
coloring matter, and. furthermore, a
low temperature, which prevents the
transformation of the sugar into
starch In other words. the red tints
of autumn are the direct product Of
the meteorological conditions prevail.
ing during that season.. e.. sunshine
and low temperature.

THE END OF FRIENDSHIP-By Henri d'Yvignac

emit the details of our situation there.
You can see the country in your minds
eye-clumps of bushes and trees, a
village in ruins lifting to the sky its
blackened chimncys, its solitary frag-
ments of walls. it's riddled church
arches, with a shattered clock tower.
Between the village and our first line
trenches, marshy prairie; behind the
village, the Boches. Neither they nor
we had been able to enter it and
hold it.
"1n spite of the incessant hail of bull
let's, certain inhabitants of the village
were obstinate enough to remain there,
hiding in their cellars when the firing
got too hot. Some of these venture
some people even took advantage of
lulls in the firing to work the ground
and to look after their fruit trees. One
OF them. an old woman, bent, decrepit,
wrinkled with age, was particularly &C.
tive. She overdid it. We got to know
her we'll.
"Some Of our pickets began to sus-
pect that she gave information to the
enemy, because two or three Of our
guns were hit right on the muzzlc in q
most miraculous fashion.

Bread Cards

In November, 1893, hence 1874 years
ago, the French National Convention
resolved that henceforth no one should
buy more bread than absolutely nec-
essary for himself and his family. Ac-
cordingly. bread tickets were intro
duced. and every head Of family re-
ceived for his family a monthly card
provided with number Of coupons
corresponding to the number OF men,
bers in the family. Upon presentation
Of this Identification card at the bread
distribution he received the share Of
bread allotted to him. The coupons at
the same time also served as control
OF the consumption Of hour by the
bakers. In order to show the equality
OF the citizens 1t was prohibited to
bake for the wealthy special bread Of
white -four and for the poor bran
bread. The poor ard the rich had to
eat the same bread, the so-called bread

fanaticism have allowed themselves
to be enmeshed in German tolls and
that, while repudiating financial OBJ
legations TO France and other ma
tons, they respect the rapidly in
creasing investments of the Prus-
SLAMS. This view is upheld by the
numerous Russians of position and

These authorities represent the var
ious liberalizing parties in the
Duma which guided the revolution
at the outset, but were afterward
displaced by the Bolsheviki. They
are convinced that Siberians would
welcome an expedition, composed
chiefly of japanese troops, advancing
with Americans, and also, it would
be hoped, with contingents of all the
Allies. The friendly invaders would
deal With German prisoners OF war
and all the many Teutonic devices
for bringing Russia under autocracy
No one will dispute the statement
that such an expedition, authorized
by America, would be world event

one can foresee what Asiatic up
heavals might be stirred up. 1t is
an open secret that President Wilson
has hesitated long and thoughtful

mankind to risks so incalculable.

which opinion is strongly divided and
that it evokes much emotion. I con-

The inal Curb
On Prussian Power

To some extent it was not new.
Poland, with a port on the Baltic,
was included in the Presidents four
teen points. What the Allies have
now done is definitely to pledge
themselves to this plank of the dem
ocratic platform. 1t means cutting
into East Prussia. 1t also means
cutting off Prussia from Lithuania,
Finland and Moscow. An essential
preliminary to such a settlement
will be the defeat Of Germany, and
the defeat must be final.
When, however, we turn from Po-
land southwark we find ourselves in
an unexpected situation. / came to
America early in January, and soon
discovered that your diplomacy
sought to isolate Germany by de-
taching without dividing Austria
hungary. The attempt seemed to
promise well. Every indication sug-
gested that the Emperor Charles de-
sired to shake his dynasty free from
the tutelage OF the Hohenzollern.
An Austro Hungarian federation,
based on home rule all around, with
the Hapsburgs as constitutional
Ink, offered one plan for destroying
Mitteleuropa. The dream vanished IN
the night when the devil entered into
the heart of Czernin and a peace by
conquest was forced upon Rumania.
This meant that the Austrian court,
swept off its feet by successes in
Russia, had sold itself once more to
pan-German and Magyar influences
and that all previous negotiations, of
course unofficial, must be dismissed
as inslncere. There remained but
one alternative. If the Dual Mon
archy could not be freely federated
u must be boldly broken up. This is
the task now on hand.

The Garden of Eden

D, E.-Wkere is the Garden Of Eden
supposed to have been located?
The question about the site Of Eden
has greatly agitated theologians. Some
placed It near Damascus, others in Ar
menia, some In the Caucasus, others at
Hilleh. near Babylon; others in Arabia,
and some in Abyssinia. The Hindus
refer it to Ceylon; one writer locates
it at the North Pole, and q learned
Swede asserts that it was in Suder-
mania. Several authorities concur in
placing it in a peninsula formed by
the main river Of Eden, on the east
side Of It, below the confluence of the
lesser rivers which emptied themselves
into it, about q degrees North lati-
tude. now swallowed up by the Persian
Gulf. an event which may have hap

They did so by means Of dactylon-

of Racial Lines Will

States From Haps-

By P. W. Wilson

bmr,ican Correspondent Of The
London Daily News
IN THE annals of the press I
doubt whether there has been
l. any paragraph at once so
brief SO momcntous and so little no.
t;ced as this which lies on my desk
as I write these words. 1t says quite
simply that the Allied prime minis
ters meeting in Paris, have ap-
oroved of certain statement made
previously by Secretary Lansing.
This statement announced what was
to be the policy of the United States
toward Poland and various prov
jnces of Austria Hungary. 1t meant,
il g sentence, that America is draw
ing the new map of the world.
For year or more it has been
known that President Wilson has
studied with profound attention the
racial problems of Southeastern
Europe AT Washington photographic
'cal maps, showing languages, ances-
try and affinity of each district, are
available for instant consultation.
With her own mingled population
America is rich in experts who can
bring local knowledge to bear upon
conflicting frontier claims, and to-
day something very like a prelimi-
nary arbitration is proceeding as
between oppressed nationalities,
which must be set free if the word
is ever again to enjoy a stable peace.
Hitherto, the Allies have displayed
some slight skepticism over these
arrangements, settled thousands of
miles away. But as the American
contribution Of men, money and
ships has grown month by month, a
more respectful attitude has been
adopted toward American ideals.
Hence the latest declaration from
Paris.

is, therefore, by far the most per-
picking question at present confront
ing President Wilson. Great Britain
and France have an opinion on the
subject which probably favors, or
has favored, intervention. They fear
that Germany may seize all the re-
sources of Russia and use them
against the rest of mankind. What
ever may be the case with the So
viets as whole, there is suspicion
that Lenine and Trotzky in their

success you destroy her spell over
the Catholic south.
Military pressure in France is
thus a kind of poultice or mustard
plaster which is drawing westward
the poison of autocfacy and dissipat-
ing it. AS German man power and
credit and courage are slowly but
surely exhausted. so does her spell
weaken in the East. At three con-
verglng angles there are Allied
forces ready to advance when the
time comes. From Bagdad, Salonica
and Jerusalem strokes must be ar
ticipated.
The question now is whether the
Czecho-Slavs and the Jugo-Slavs,
suffering such thraldom. can do
anything to promote their own lib
critics. From Bohemia disturban-
ces are constantly reported. Po-
land also is FESTIVE. And there is
talk here in America of enrolling
foreign legions, composed of Slavs,
all now regarded as alien friends,
who are prepared to go forth to
help their brethren still under the
yoke. In the meantime, DR.. Ma
saryk's presence at Washington
probably indicates that delinita-
ton Of the various territories is un-
der careful study.
The case does not end there. All
over Europe we cannot but note revo-
lutionary tendencies. Organized
states are on trial. In Britain we
are fully conscious of what move
ments we may have to meet after the
war. Our best brains have been at

"No matter. We pinned the spy to
