SOLDIERS ARE WARNED
TO PROTECT INSURANCE.
Efforts Being Made to Induce Men to
Let Policies Lapse, Says E. A. Pur-
dy.

Garter II. Glass, secretary of The
treasury, has notified E. A. Purdy
postmaster Of Minneapolis, that ef.
1orts are being made by certain I'm.
scrupulous life insurance agents te
get returned soldiers and sailors tc
allow their government life insurance
policies to lapse for the purpose OF
inducing them to take out insurance
IN private companies. Mr.. Purdy saws
he has not found that any of the
larger, well established, legitimate
companies are engaging in this prac-
tlce, but that it is confined to com.
pames OF a more or less f1y-by-nigh,
nature.
Under no circumstances Mr.
Purdy says, Should soldiers and sail
ors drop their insurance. It is a dis
tlnct service to the boys and thei,
government insurance is cheaper than
any offered by the various life insur-
ance companies.
This fact is recognized by the in
surance men themselves, for many OF
the leading insurance companies have
issued orders to their agents to en-
courage soldiers and sailors in keep
ing up their government insurance
There are number of points in con-
nection with this insurance upon
which the sailors and soldiers do not
seem to be fully advised.
"1-They have the privilege OF
holding this insurance after returning
to civil life.
"2-To hold the insurance they
must continue to pay the premium
each month. Heretofore this premi.
UNI has been deducted from their pay
each month. Henceforth they will
have to pay it themselves.
"-They may convert the insur-
ance to standard form of govern
ment policy any time within five
years after the termination of war
without further medical examination
eff insurance payments are
more than 81 days overdue there can
be no reinstatement of the insurance
without a new medical certificate.
"5-Soldiers and sailors who re-
ceive injuries in the service should
not confuse compensation they re-
ceive with insurance. If they are re-
ceiving compensation checks they
should keep on paying their insur-
ance premiums just the same until
they are informed by the government

with the Norman conquest Of England
the .sles became more a part Of the con-

An interesting and illuminating fact
that should be borne IN mind when We
consider later relations between Eng
land and France 10 that with the Duke
Of Normandy also King OF England. the
French king was menaced in prestige
more than ever before. II the king OF
the French had previously felt that he
was hemmed in by his dukes on every
side. he now felt that his hngship was
rivalled by tho greater power Of the
Norman dukes.
From this situation arose the rivalry
that for many centuries existed between
the kings of the French and the kings
Of the English. For time one OF the
effects was the maintaining Of close re-
iatioin between England ana Germany.

Children's Books.

n STROLL through the children's sec
|A\ ton of book store or a glance at
IN the lists of childrens books in the
public libraries leaves one somewhat
amazed at the great mass and variety OF
publications designed especially for little
folks. AT first it seems to be fascinating
array, and the astonished adult is tempted
to consider the children of today blessed
so far as their reading life goes.
Second thoughts bring doubts of either
the value or wisdom of such a variety OF
publications for little readers. The doubts
increase as one sees lists headed ''books
for boys" or ''books for girls" Is it pos.
sible that normal, wideawake children
have to have special types of books divided
on sex lines? Don't boys and girls love ad.
venture and fun, exploration, travel and
fairy lore about equally well? Good litera-
ture for children has no such dividing line
any more than for their elders.
That leads to another observation on the
epidemic of children's books. Very few OF
them may be classed as "good literature, =
and those that are worth while are very
often the old ones that have been read and
loved by several generations of children.
The main trouble is that there are so
many limitations. Silly, cheap jingles and
deluge of would-be fairy tales have flood
ed the bookshops. Very few of them are SO
good or so lasting as the real Mother Goose
or Aladdin or the wealth of wonderful folk
tales that have come down to us from the
childhoods of many peoples.
There are plenty of really good books for
boys and girls, and wise parents will not let
themselves be confused and led astray by
the stacks and stacks of silly, sentimental
stuff that has no lasting value. One or two
really good books year, read over and
over, loved and handled until dog-eared
will give the child more real pleasure than
dozen of the other sort. Further they
will not ruin his taste for the good and true
in books and life as he grows up.

DEAR ANNIE LAURIE:
One day a boy came to work In
the store where my father works. so
In that way came to know him by
sight. though I did not know his
name.
Later on he came in one Of my
classes at school. thought him
quite good looking and rather inter-
esting. I talked with another girl
about him, and had an argument
about how his name was spelled. /
dared her to ask him. She refused.
but said she would write a note and
put It on his desk. Finally, however.
/ wrote the note and she put II on
his desk. We said nothing about
spelling In It. but asked him to write
his name on the paper.
He replied, saying that he would "If
you will write your full name on this
paper first" He thought only one
person had written the note. Before
showing mo the note my friend an.
swered It. saying that as she was q
girl 1t was his place to write II FIRST.
We saw that he had misunderstood
the note. and did not destroy his
illusion. We have not received his
answer to the last note yet.

What Really Happens.
There is q lymph or watery fluid in
the cochIea, which is elastic and com
pressible in order to transmit sound
from the outer world.
The fact that water Is hard to conf
press is proof of it's elasticity. Elastic-
ity is the tendency OF the smallest par
tiGles of water to return to their undis-
turbed positions
An incompressible fluid contained be-
tween solid walls is distinguishable from
O compressible one. because each I'M
preston which reaches any part of Its
surface communicates itself Immediate
III throughout the whole fluid, and sets
every part instantly in motion.
In a compressible fluid wave pro-
cteds from the spot of action and travels
with a certain velocity which sets in
motion the several particles of the fluid
cpnsecutively.
In the spiral labyrinth of the inner
ear the dimensions of the whole mass
are Infinitely small in comparison with
the wave length. The walls of the bone
which enclose 1t are also solid.
When a vibration in the air outside OF
tho ear stirs, the communication OF the

is an equivalent loss Of pressure In the
passage below the ear.
In double hydraulic engine a
similar condition of affairs occurs. The
high pressure water is admitted into a
cylinder and the piston Is pushed for
ward and backward alternately.
The piston rod carries the pressure to
the crank shaft. and this does work.
The equivalent unit pressure disappears
In the exhaust water, which is pushed
