"HospltaIi.ed" a New Word.

A new war word has appeared
which. unhapplly. we are likely to hear
very often In the future. The word
is "hospitalized." says the Manchester
Guardian. II is. applied to soldiers
who have been a long time In hos
pltal, whose minds have lain fallow
and have lost mental fiber. So far
little has been done In an organized
way to rectify this deterioration.
1t is chiefly among officers where
disqualification" is evident. In many
cases young officers who have been
seriously wounded and had long con.
vnlescence have found. when they
went back to the army or were inya.
lIded out and returned to their pro.
fesslon or business, that they were fnr
from what they were before. thei,
mental energy having weakened. and
they were unable to grasp affairs.

What Germany Escaped.

Aerial torpedOes in the form of di.
minutive airplanes were among the
American war-waging prospects when
the signing of the armistice ended the
struggle.
A powerful weapon of destruction
which could have been used with ter
rife effect against fortifications. cities
and opposing armies was in process Of
experimentation, according to facts
which have leaked out at Washington.
The secret Of the invention has
been closely guarded. Even now the
authorities are unwilling to make pub.
lie the details. Except that they ap-
peared tOyllke, compared with the air
plane, the construction was similar,
engines and planes being provided.
Unlike airplanes, they necessarily had
to be self-propelling without pilots to
guide them. The torpedoes had a
range of 60 miles. r
BY means Of wonderful mechan-
ism 1t was claimed to be possible to
direct their course with great pre-
cislOn. At the exact moment desired
the torpedo would explode. destroying
the miniature airplnne, of course, but
causing widespread destruction. The
tOrpedOes were designed to carry 300
pounds of 7 N 7.

Keeping Up the White House.

President Wilson has been extreme
ly conservative In allowing expendi-
lures for the White House since he
has occupied 1t. and not a dollar has
been expended, particularly since the
declaration Of war, that could Dos
sibly be avoided. Last year, however,
the walls In the state parlors were re-
pnpered, but the same design of wall
paper was kept In all Of the rooms.
The handsome patriotic design of the
blue field and stars. which was re-
stored In 1903. and which has been 30
popular. still graces the walls of the
blue chambers. The rugs were re-
placed by new ones. while dainty new
curtains Of lace were hung under the
heavy draperies. All the furniture
has been reupholstered In the same
pattern. These small renovations hive
given to the first floor at the White
House very attractive appearance.

SIMPLY REFUSE TO Be OLD
Many Men considered Beyond Their
Prime Enter the Lists With
Their Youth Renewed.

Two thousand years ago Cicero
wrote Of the occasional old man "whose
mind stands out Of the reach Of the
hody's decay" and only few months
ago farmer Of seventy-five, whose
body as well as his mind was still
young. went into an employment office
In Philadelphia to obtain position In

who come back from retirement at an
advanced age and make great successes
in this or that Industry.

Never roo oId to Learn.

1t has often been said that man
cannot learn a. new trade after he Is
forty, but this statement has frequent
ly been disproved. Peter s. Du Pom
ceau was eighty when he wrote his
valuable treatise on the Cochin
Chinese language. and had only then
recently taken up the study; and the
late John Bigelow was still an author
turning out a book when he passed

Had Elephant. Break Step.

1t is a tradition among newspaper
men-and one that may be founded on
fact-that In the old days when Bnr-
NUNS elephants were marched across
the Brooklyn bridge, in the quiet
hours before daybreak, the keepers
were instructed to prevent the huge
animals from keeping step lest the su-
proposition Of strong vibrations might
injure the structure.

Quality That Counts.

It Is no great matter to associate

naturally pleasing to all, and every
one willing enjoyeth peace, and low

But to be able to live peaceably with
hard and perverse persons, or with

contrary to us. is great grace, and
a most commendable and manly thing.

SLEEPING SICKNESS A MYSTERY

The sleeping sickness known to the medical profession encephalitis lethargica a mysterious malady which, following in the wake of Englands flu epidemic, struck terror to London and other English cities, has appeared in Chicago.
 Four victims have been reported here so far Two are dead. The others. have been abandoned by phy- scians to sleep from which they will never awake
 Government medical authorities have launched exhaustive research into the strange disease No fear is entertained however that will spread into the proportions of the flu epidemic despite it's apparent relationship
 Dr. Charles A. Elliott, specialist, declined to be interviewed recently the cases he had observed but referred the questoner to the Journal of the American Medical association, issue February S. This reviewed the appearance of the malady in England and the futile efforts of commission to diagnose. The editorial reads in part:
 Last spring considerable alarm was awakened in Great Britain at the outbreak, notably in London and Sheffield, of illness presenting group of unusual cerebral symptoms
 "The distinctive features appeared to be those of an acute general disease associated with condition of increasing anguor. apathy and drowsness passing into lethargy
 Progressive muscular weakness passing into complete disablement, and a combination of various cranial nerve palsies were characteristic signs
 The initial symptoms of the disease are a head ache and often double vision This latter is due to a paralysis of the eye Then followed paralysis of the cranial nerves and deep sleep.
 Cases observed in Chicago indicate that the suf- ferer endures death panlessly, never awaking from his sumber. The sleep has been known to continue for week more.
 It is added that the disease itself is not con- tasious-Chicago Herald and Examiner

The Extra Session

There is talk of special session of the legislature. That talk however, is not heard in any quarter of authority The governor who call the session if there is to be one, has not yet indicated discovery of the need of it, and he will probably not make announcement of such discovery; if it should be made. until he has completed his investigation of the of legislation which thrown upon him in the latter days of the regular session.
 s The popular belief that there will be an extra session rests upon the supposed need of state road legislation The governor however it is understood believes that while statewide program of road con- struction is desirable there will still be- plenty of funds to carry road work, by co-ordnating the efforts of counties that employment will be given % all who need it or who would accept it.

Senator Reed and the Democrats

The resolution adopted by the democrats of the house of the Missouri legislature requesting the resig nation United States Senator James A. Reed, does of course that that is expression of the legislature. Anyway the senator is not likelyoto resign. The republicans of the legislature no doubt would join in the resolution if they thought it would any good their motive would be different from that of their democratic brethren. They would enter tain lively hope of eectng republican senator more easily than they elected Judge Spencer Joseph w. Folk last fall.
 We do not think that it good politics for the Missouri democrats to take this action with respect Senator Reed There why he is not acceptable to either democrats republicans and fault the democratic legislators found with him. His offense his bitter opposition to the League of Nations and his venemous references to President Wilson
 The latter offense would ordinarily have procured a unanimous democratic condemnation. Yet only fifty democratic members of the house could be brought together in resentment against the senator and it may be presumed that considerable part of that number did support the resolution because of his views to the League of Nations. Anyway, it has been made plain that that proposition has by means the sympathy of nearly all the democratic members of the house, and that if any democrat foolish enough bring the subject before the house, he would invite defeat.

 So, unless there should develop some other need for session than has yet manifested itself, will be none notwithstanding the physical signs of it in legislative chambers where the desks yet remain in place.
