The general elections In France re-
suited in a great out of the radicals.
They lost many seats in the chamber
and Clemenceau's victory was SO pro-

HOW CHILL HURTS HEALTH.

Chilling the body reduces the
power of protection against bacteria.
There are certain cells in the body
which are known as phagocytes.
When they come in contact with
bacteria they surround, devour and
digest them. If the temperature of
the body be abnormally reduced the
phagocytes are not SO active. This
partially explains why chilling of
the body may be followed by an at
tack of pneumonia. The cold does
not produce pneumonia-no more
than narrowing field produces a
crop of corn or wheat. Narrowing
the field prepares it for the growth
of planted seed; chilling the body
prepares it for developing the plant
ed germs. 1t is wrong to speak of
the cold air treatment of pneumonia.
Plenty of fresh air, less laden with
germs and the poisons eliminated
from the body, helps to maintain the
fighting efficiency of the body, pro-
vided that the body be kept warm

ELEPHANTS sHREWDNEss.

An interesting tale was told, a
good many years ago, of an African
elephant in the Dresden geological
gardens. When offered an apple
which was in bad condition and
stale, this elephant at first accepted
it; but then, suddenly, as if he had
realized the trick that was being
played upon him, he paused, looked
closely at the apple, and then hand
ed it back to the person who had Of
fered it. The elephant did not drop
it, but waited until the man took it
right out of his trunk, just as he
had handed it to the animal in the
first place. Surely this proves that
elephants do not lack originality

WHERE TREATIES WERE MADE
Many Places Made Famous Because
They Witnessed the Formal
Ending of Wars.

In looking back on the war the
names of many localities associated
with peace treaties will be recalled.
Amiens, that fell temporarily into
German hands early in the war, was
the town where the treaty bearing
its name, after being negotiated in
London, was signed between Great
Britain, France, Holland and Spain,
in 1902, and was the occasion when
the Bourbon, the great bell in
Bruges belfry was rung for the first
time. Cateau is also famous for a
treaty signed there. Cambria Of
military fame going back centuries
from the Canadian capture, has also
been the scene of several negotiated
peace acts. The most curious is
what has come down to us in history
as the 'ladies' peace" because the
delegates who settled the quarrel of
peoples were Louisa of Savoy, moth
er of the French King Francois L.
and Margaret of Austria, aunt Of
Charles V, emperor of Germany.
Another interesting township with a
peace history that was overrun by
the Austrians when they made their
break through at Caporette in the
autumn of 1917, is Campo Formio,
not far from Udine. The treaty
was between Napoleon and Austria,
and was signed in 1877.

MAY HAVE WANTED A MEAL
chipmunk IN Boston Park Showed
Every Determination Of Ending
Life OF That Turtle.

A few days ago q chipmunk was
seen drinking at the pond in the
Boston Publ, garden. lie may have
been an escaped pet from a nearby
house; or possibly turned loose by
some boy who had tired Of his pet
While the chipmunk was drinking
q turtle rose to the surface, swan to
the curbing and climbed up on the
stone to sun himself. The chipmunk
watched the turtle for second. then
darted at it 6ercely.
The turtle quickly drew in his
head; and the chipmunk ran to the
turtles rear and bit at the tail,
which the turtle quickly folded in
out of the way.
The little chipmunk then began
biting at the shell of the turtle, and
he tried to get in between the two
layers Of shell in order to find a
vital spot where be could bite the
turtle.
Finally a man interfered, and
picked up the turtle to throw it into
the water; and even then the chip
munk jumped up in the air and
tried to reach it. When the turtle
was thrown into the lake, the chip
munk ran chattering to the waters
edge; and then scampered up into
a tree.

PRINCESS HAD WRONG IDEA
Small oirps Paper Not Prepared fos
Special Presentation to the Eyes
OF Royalty.

A good many years ago, when
Queen Alexandra was still princess
of Wales, she had accompanied the
prince upon a ceremonial visit to
one Of the great Midland cities,
where, after the main object OF the
day, the laying Of corner stone Of
a hospital, had been accomplished,
there followed a round of visits to
public institutions, with speeches
and the presentation Of bouquets,
addresses and resolutions.
AS the royal carriage was return
ing, a blocking of the road ahead de-
layed it in front Of a school, The
children had been given a recess,
and we're crowded on the curb to see
the royalties. II had been compost
tion day, and very pretty little girl
in a white dress still held her COM
position IN her hand. Moved by
curiosity and the presence OF her
comrades behind her, she stepped
into the street and stood close by
the royal carriage smiling shyly up
into the princess face. That
gracious lady returned the smile
and, seeing the paper clutched in
the child's hand, assumed that it
was one more loyal address and
stretched her hand out to take it.
The surprised little author surren-
dered it silently-and just then the
procession passed on.
A few moments later Princess
Alexandra, glancing down, was
struck by something unusual in the
aspect of the paper in her lap-prob-
ably a certain scrawliness and inki-
ness-and opened it for a better
look. She read this astonishing
title:

Aboard President Wilson's Special
Train-A continuous ovation along the
Pacific coast and then on his eastward
way back toward the capital was given
to President Wilson as he came
toward the end Of his month daylong
speaking tour ia behalf OF the League
of Nations. California, particularly
the delightful city Of Los Angeles, went
Wild IN Its enthusiasm for him and his
advocacy Of the League, and 1t was
In that state, perhaps, that he did his
most successful missionary work.
Hiram Johnson, California's former
governor, now her United States sena-
tor. and considered by her as the most
likely Republican candidate for the
presidency in 1920, had before the ar
rival of President Wilson, convinced
a great number OF citizens that the
League as at present formulated was
not a good thing. He had told them
that the United States, because OF It.
would be drawn into every petty
European quarrel; he argued that we
would lose our sovereignty by Joining
with the European nations. He had
blamed the president for asserting to
the possession by japan OF the PENN
sula of Shan Tung in China.
