confinement; likewise, the French
men would be treated the same way,
the object being to instill a hatred
of each other among the English anG
French, and these prisoners were to
be used as the means of spreading &
the propaganda among the people OF
England and France, finally to bring
about such feeling of haired for
each other among the peoples of the
two countries ss to break up their
military alliance. This same method
was used upon all of the Allied pris-
oners, the object being to set them
all against each other.
He told how the correspondents OF
the papers were invited to the prison
camps, where they found things fix
ed so nicely that it really seemed a
delightful place in which to spend
ones time, and that thousands of
Italians were lured into surrender
ing by being promised such an easy
time, but as matter of fact, these
fine appearances, these operas, enter
tainments, etc., were simply staged
for the days when the ccrrespon-
dents were invited and were by no
means any part Of the regular daily
or weekly routine, but were camou
1age purely and simply; this fact
being confessed to him by one of the
attendants at one of the camps.
He told, too, of how one, William
Bayard Hale, stationed in Berlin, en-
ployed as special correspondent for
the Hearst papers in this country,
was at the same time receiving a
large salary from the German gov
ernment, which probably accounted
for the Pro-German flavor of his
articles, and also accounted for the
loyalty of a certain class of citizens
to the Hearst papers.
Mr.. Curtin's lecture was very
Illuminating one and was full OF
material which he had personally Sc
cured, not hearsay, not taken from
other papers and books, not gotten
indirectly, but things which he had
personally seen and heard. The lee
ture was an illuminating recital of
how things really were in Germany
and those who heard it were amply
repaid for their expenditure of time
and money.

CLAIMS TO HAVE SEEN
METEOR FALL in CREEK
COlOl'ed Man States That Meteor No
ticed by Many Persons Fell Into
Slaughter Greek, at Taylor's Island

A colored man, who came to Cam
bridge yesterday, stated that he was
an eye witness to the falling meteor
Friday night, watching it as it fell
into Slaughter Greek, at Taylor's Is
land. The man stated that he had
been riding his motor cycle, but that
the supply of gasoline having given
out, he was on the Slaughter Greek
bridge, on his way to get his tank
filed, when he saw this brilliant
fash in the sky, and that, in less
than a second, it seemed to him,
whatever it was fell into the creek.
The fall into the creek was followed
by an explosion that seemed to jar
everything around him, and threw a
column of water into the air for
distance of a hundred feet or more.
The man frankly stated that he
was scared so badly that he did not
hardly know what to do. So far,
however, no other persons at Tay-
lor's Island have, been found who
know anything about the matter.

Animals Doctor Themselves.
From the Christian Herald

Animals have a way Of doctoring them
selves that is remarkable. Animals suf-
fering from fever eat nothing. keep quiet,
seek darkness and airy places, drink much
water and sometimes piunge into the
water from time to time. When a dog
has lost its appetite eats that species OF
grass known as dogs grass" Cats also
eat grass. catnip, etc., when sick. Sheep
and cows in the same circumstances seek
out certain wild plants.
If an ants foot is cut, other ants will
cover the wounded part with a transpar-
ent fluid from their mouths. If a CHM
panzee is wounded it stops the flow of
blood by placing It's hand on the wound
or dressing 1t with leaves and grass.
A terrier had an injured eye. 1t re-
manned lying under a counter avoiding
heat and light, although it had been its
habit to keep close to the fire. 1t adopted
the general treatment rest and abstinence
from food. The local treatment consisted
in licking the upper surface of its paw,
which It then applied to the wounded eye,
again licking the paw when it became dry.
Cats, when hurt, also treat themselves by
this simple method.
The methods adopted by most of the
wild animals foT iootorns themselves arc
unknown to man, but there is no doubt
that every animal has the ability to skill.
fully doctor itself.

Americans Are Mooners.

THE Lancer" in the Los Angeles Times.
If you want to know why more than
30 per cent of Americans fail in business
you have only to take a little ride in an
automobile and lodges the pedestrians.
Nine-tenths of them, having nothing to
think about, are absorbed in thought.
They go incoming across the frenzied river
of traffic as though they were alone in an
illinlitable desert. The slightest, %silliest,
childish incident brings them to a won
dering pause in The middle Of the street,
forgetful Of all the dangers.
: And that is exactly he way they do
business. They are always just stepping
out a minute" and leaving their customers
to go somewhere else.
The other day I stopped at a little fish
stall in Balboa to buy bait. The proprietor
had just stepped out. Out or curiosity I
stopped there four times during the after
noon. Every time he had lust stepped
out" 1t began to taxi the element Of
a scientific examination. So l kept OF
Job. His alibi staggered me.

that I am a very busy man
I dare say that he was engaged in some
important conference with the legal or
accounting department of his establish
ment which. by actual measurement, is

The truth is American business men
spend most OF their time kidding" them
selves. The resources Of this country are
SO vast and SO ~undeveloped thai the
big fortunes are the result OF luck. A very

suitable hat for the wife of a man who =
earns 5000 a month. This. point was
decided, officially and finally by the
appellate division of the supreme court
the other day.--From a news story.
We do not wish to say anything that
will get US into trouble with the courts;
but at the same: time we must say that
we do not share the courts opinion. Just
because a man has an income of $A,0W a
month thai is no reason why his wife
should run UP e~xtravagant millinery bills.
Two thousand dollars each month
amounts to less than $25,0oO a year; and
with the. cost of booze what it is $25,0V0
q. year melts down like a wax flower
~transpiantet to the crater Of Hades.
Steaks, taxicabs. clothes, amusements of
all sorts. have gone up in proportion; q
decent cigar. costs three times what it
did a few years 20 1t Is no lime for a
woman to be reekiessly extravasant with
millinery. Twenty cents here and 20 cents
there soon mount up to a dollar.
We try to inculcate the doctrine CT thrift
in the home. Encourage a woman to
spent 20 cents for a hat this spring, and
next autumn she may get reckless and
run up to a quarter. And women, once
they are given the rein in expenditures of
this sort, soon begin to think III large
sums. There Is no end to their wants.
Let a woman AYE a 20-cent hat, and the
next thing you know she will be asking
to be allowed to purchase a dimes worth
of hairpins. The really thrifty housewife
will use %clothespins for hairpins and she
will learn to whittle them out Of stray
bits of wood that she picks UP on the
street, with a pairing knife; and she will
learn to make the pairing knife by
Strengthening out the half of an CID dog
collar rubbing it sharp on the curb-
stone in front of the house in her leisure
moments. n she will learn how. to get
the dog collars to keep herself in pairing
knives without any eNpediture of money
whatever, and maybe bring in a little
cash by dyeing the dogs she gets Tie col
lars from another color and selling them
in another section of the city. We be-
lieve in being just and even liberal with
a woman; and she should have 10 per cent
of the cash which she obtains in this man
her for her own, to spend on food and
clothing for the children.
