AVERAGE lnteIliuence.

There have been number of re-
ports about the results Of the psy-
: ehologic tests in the army which are
not particularly encouraging. OF
course it is all very well to find that
more than half Of those taken in the
draft were of an average or of, a
higher intelligence and that four out
of every 100 were of Every SUPERIOR
intelligence and eight to ten out of
every 100 Of superior" intelligence.
This will probably average up higher
than what would be secured in any
European country, but the fly in the
ointment is the high relative percent
age of those who are below average"
intelligence, or of an inferior" intelli-
gence or are Every Inferior with
several grades and degrees even below
the very inferior"

PATRIOTS GET POOR REWARD
British Soldiers Who Won High Dis
tinction Have Right to Com
plain Of lngratitude.

X X -
Attention has been directed to the
hard case of men who won distinction
in the great war, and seem to have
been forgotten, by two dramatic Incl
dents. One is the public statement by
Sir Douglas Haig that a demobilized
officer who won the " c., d. s. o.,
and M. C., is at present trudging the
streets of London in search Of work,
The other is the announcement that
Mr.. Arthur Richings has rejoined the
Cardiff police force as an ordinary
constable, Notwithstanding the fact
that he has just relinquished the army
rank Of lieutenant colonel.
The latter's record is an astounding
one. He was promoted second lieu
tenant on the field, and his subsequent
promotions were astonishingly rapid.
Mentioned in dispatches three times,
he wears six wound stripes, the Mons
Star, the Croix de Guerre with
palms), the Military Cross, and is also
a Chevalier of the Legion of Honor.
Perhaps one may be pardoned for
questioning whether there is not some
thing wrong with an army admins
hation which allows man with an
active service record like that to dis
appear into the decent obscurity of a
police constable's tunic. - Montreal

INTRODUCES DRUG in LUNGS
French Physicians Method Of Admin.
istering chIoroform Said to BE
Pronounced Success.

A new method of administering
ehloroform, brought out in France by
DR. Guisez, is described in the Scien-
tific American. The doctor no longer
applies; the drug by the usual COM
press or mask placed over the mouth,
but introduces the chloroform vapor
directly into the lungs through tube
running into the windpipe. The tube
method has already been employed
in several hundred cases, and with
great success. Besides being very
useful for operations to be performed
on the head and neck, it is of great
interest because it never produces
nausea.
The effects of the new method will
serve to explain the reasons why chic
reform operations always produced
nausea when operating by the former
method, for it appears evident that
the nausea was caused by part of
the chloroform vapors being absorbed
by the oesophagus and the stomach.

Nelson's Victory Guns.

Recognition of the English silent
navy" which did so much to win the
war has come in the presentation of
two communion cups to the Royal Ma
val Barracks church of Portsmouth,
England. These cups We're used on
Nelson's flagship Victory in the battle
of Trafalgar. Thus the glory that was
England's in the earlier days joins
hands with the glory Of the present,
and the spirit of Nelson is linked with
the spirits of the brave men who stood
by in all the long months of the North
sea vigil. Nine years ago these cups
were given to church in Glasgow.
The widow of the rector of this par
ish now gives them to the navy as the
most fitting holder of the goblets,
which We're made about 1900.

Doing Him a Favor.

When my cousin, newly commits
stoned, was sent to Camp Grant he
found himself in command Of a, lot Of
draft men drawn mainly from our
Stun district. One in particular took
quite a fancy to him and never lost a
chance of doing him a favor. #
One day after the man had been
in camp only week or so. he ran
breathlessly up to my cousin, who was
in the far end of a trench. He re-
membered to salute after fashion,
then stood plainly trying to think what
to do next. Finally he burst out,
BEAT it, mister, while de COINS good.
De boss is after youse, and gosh, he's
sore!"
The colonel was at the other end of
the trench calling for the officer in
charge Chicago Tribune.

MOST FRAGRANT OF FLOWERS
Baltimore Admirer Declares the Breath
OF the Lilac Stands Unmatched
for Sweetness.

When the lilacs breathe, odors of
Araby become fetid and astringent in
comparison. When the lilacs breathe,
their odorous breath carries the fra
GRANGE of the distillation of a genera
ton of life and love that they have
gathered to themselves, where they
have bloomed by the garden wall or
against the porch pillar. The old
home-wonderful in the vividness of
It's memories and associations-is Gre
ated by the picturing of beauty and
tenderness that the fragrance of the
poisoning lilacs brings to the mind.
one sees the path through the garden
winding down to the clump of lilacs.
Inc faces of other days are framed
IN the pictures that fancy creates
through the magic of the lilacs.
The panicles of bloom are in full
flower and the blooms will be hailed
with joy by the multitudes who have
In their feelings the sentiments to
which lilacs appeal. They are medi-
tative and reflective kind of flower.
They come so quietly in the spring.
They bloom forth so abundantly and
magnificently. They sing their con-
cert to the airs of April and cause the
four winds of the heavens to become
their survivors to the joy of man
kind.
The lilacs are the softest and most
persuasive of all tints, those of laven-
der and purple, with some of driven
whiteness. How wonderful their
beauty, the assembling of the blossoms
and their disposition upon the branch
How full of art How exquisitely
Dresden Is the lilac as it swings in
the breeze! And every lilac bush is
product of years of growth, and that
growth goes on perennially until one
and another generation is laid be-
meath the sod, and the lilac has been
intrusted with the cherished memories
of youth and maturity and age-passed

O'Brien, former judge of the Supreme
court of New York, recently gave "the

Gen. Coleman Dupont and % of the

YOUNG HEROES AT OXFORD
many Customs and Traditions Of the
University Are Likely to Seem
Tame to Them.

Inc returning hero, fresh from battle
fields, will no longer rush TO the
cricket fields and the river at Oxford
with the zest of young barbarians at
tnelr play, observes writer in The
Nation Uondon). To one who NAV
wear the ribbon of the Military Cross
or the D. S. o. the position of his col
lege boat in the Fights can no longer
seem the one matter of life and death,
and even the halo of goal shines
with diminished glory.
So, too, in lesser pursuits. How
shall he dwell upon the squabbles of
compartments in ancient Greece, when
ne himself has motored from Saloniki
to Athens in day, and on to Sparta
IN the next? Or what will he feel
when questioned on his fading mem
cries of the irregular verbs? Probably
most public school boys are haunted
to old age by a dream-a terrible
n1ghtmare-of being put on" by the
old headmaster when they have not
taken the trouble to prepare line of
the passage. 1t makes no difference
that they are more than so and the
headmaster has long been dead. The
horror of the situation remains APP
palling, and the dream is far more
frequent than any Of Freud's mag
mary perversions.
The feeling Of the soldier returning
to the class and. lecture room will be
much the same, with sense of fulfil
ity added. For. indeed, it is impossi-
BILE to go back in life and second child
hood is not like the first. Little vic
tins play regardless Of their doom,
but not men who have known what
doom can do.

chicaqo's Oldest Saloon.

When the dry law went into effect
and Chicago's 6000 saloons went out
of business, it ended the career of
Chicago's oldest saloon which was es-
tablished in 1887, the same year Chi
cago was incorporated as city. Since
that time the business has passed
through the hands of a family of four
generations. Indian camps were a
common sight in Chicago in those
days. The city had about 5000 inhab-
itants; to-day there are nearly 3.O00,-
600 persons
