TO A FLOCK OF GEESE

That ride In wedged ranks the blue
And unmarked roads of Paradise
Who else but God had tutored you
fhat wind beset and tempest form,
To buffet you with mighty sledge,
.He still sweep onward through the storm
With that unbroken wedge?
Thrill me again. ye serried host,
With that shrill challenge which defies
The strength of whatsoever post
Is set to guard the bending skies
against such rangers as ye are
That dare with swift and rhythmic
wings
The night unlighted OF star
To guide Gods feathered things.
fe are the joy of being wild,
The sign and symbol of a blcst
Estate so sweet and undefiled
II breathes its spirit undistressed
Adown the heights to which have scared
Since Eden was our deepest sighs-
Thrill me again. ye CLAIMANT horde.

Waves Attain a Height of
400 Feet in Stormy Seas

Some Of the most terrible storms at
sea are experienced. not in winter, as
might be expected. but during the heat
Of summer. Waves Mt the seaside are
however, totally different and very
puny compared with those in mid
ocean. A Queenstown steamer report.
ed waves 100 feet In height during an
Atlantic gale. Waves Of so feet to 20
feet are common to the Atlantic. but
II is in the Indian ocean that We look

Cold regions also experience immense

Cornish coast was once bombarded
with a wave Of 200 feet.

there is always danger that trappers
will deplete the trapping grounds and
permanently decrease the number Of
fur animals. the federal specialists
say. Regulations and seasons should
be carefully observed, so that the fur
supply Of the future shall not be en-.
dangered.
For the fiscal year ended June 80.
1918, the foreign trade of the United
States in raw and manufactured furs
reached the largest total in the his
tory Of the country. While exports
were only $13,9O3.83 as compared
with $15.729. 100 for 1917, the imports
were $3S.3S9. 1872 as compared with
$21 .553.375 for 1917. The total foreign
trade in furs increased over 40 per

Why French Girls Prefer
To Wed Yanks Instead of
Natives of Own Country

To win an American husband seems
to be the ideal of more than 40 per
cent of the Partisan young women.
At all events that is the result of
an inquiry conducted by L'Oeuvre,
Paris daily newspaper which
publishes series Of letters setting
forth the reasons that have guided the
writers to give preference to Ameri-
cans over their compatriOts.
Those who would rather marry
Frenchmen base their predilectl0n
largely on patriotic grounds, but
large percentage of young French
women confess to a whOlehearted ad-
mirati0n of the average Americans
breezy good humor and courtesy Of
mnnner toward the other sex.
Several French girls who have had
opportunity to observe American home
life appreciate the easy camaraderie
between the sexes. and they come to
the conclusion that a good comrade
must make good husband.
Some fair writer's say that French
lovers are given to talking Overmuch
and are too fussy about their personal
appearance.

War Boosted.
Our Wealth
Americas Greatest Danger Now
b Pride. a Writer Says

Uncle Sam has become the worlds
greatest captain Of industry. Here
are the figures, according to a writer
in Omaha News:
We have 6 per cent of the worlds
population.
We own per cent of the worlds
land.
But we produce 20 per cent of the
worlds copper.
We produce 66 per cent Of the
worlds oil.
We raise 60 per cent of all cotton
raised.
We produce 33 per cent Of the
worlds silver.
We dig 80 per cent of all coal used.
We mine 40 per cent of iron ores
and 20 per cent Of the worlds gold.
We manufacture S5 per cent of all
motorcars manufactured. and operate
10 per cent of the worlds railroads.
We grow 25 per cent of the worlds
wheat.
Before the war England was, on the
surface, the richest nation In the
world. At that time the United States
owed $4,000 ,OOO, GOO to Europe.
Now Europe owes the United States
$4,000, 100000.
In two years we shall have passed
England as shipbuilder.
All we have to do to go to the wall
is to become junker nation, with no
other than material ambitions. He
whom the gods would destroy they
FIRST make mad.
But let's not do that. Let's be SEN
xible and decent and thankful that we
are so fortunately situated. And let's
Try to make the best use Of our COM
bined wealth so that everybody will be
prosperous and educated and comfort
able and happy.

Some Fellows Who Do Not

When you find fellows wearing that

suiring for a new Job In an undertone
you can put It down that work and
they don't get along well together. The

Of great many aspirants Of the nickel

the matter is they are just downright
lazy and can't work longer than II

Muscular Effort Is Cause
Of Nearsightedness, Notes
an Authority on Subject

1t is generally agreed that myopia,
or nearsightedness, Is an acquired de.
feet resulting from the elongation OF
the eyeball, but its causation has not
yet been determined, the evidence for
the assumption that near work pro-
duces near sight being unsatisfactory.
DIR. Eldridge Green, writing in the Lon
don Lancet, advances the theory that
the primary and essential cause is an
obstruction of the outflow Of the
lymph. The obstruction may be pro-
duced by severe muscular effort, e. g..
by lifting heavy weights, when feel.
ing of tension is always felt in the
eyes, which appear, in extreme cases,
to be starting from the head. This
is more especially the cause of pro-
gressive myOpia among warehouse
boys, porters and others whose work
involves excessive effort, while with
those engaged in sedentary occupa-
tions the form Of exercise taken may
be responsible, e. g., wrestling, rowing,
digging, and also coughing. Thus
when signs Of commencing myopia ap.
pear anything likely to increase the
intraocular tension should be avoided
There is no need to avoid reading

Narration Of Butterflies

Conquest Of Typhoid Is
Compared by Physicians
With Tetanus Victory

Wonderful achievement in medicine
comparable with the victory over te-
tanus is the conquest Of typhoid fever.
Typhoid fever has been one Of the his
toric pestilences of armies. The dis
covery in 1880 Of the germ which caus-
ed it was one of the very earliest
achievements Of the bacteriOlogists.
Yet even in 1898. writes Maj. w. w.
Keen in Yale Review, when published
a book on the Surgical Complications
and Sequels Of Typhoid Fever" SO lit
tie was positively known about 1t that
1 had to assemble proofs that the ty-
phoid bacillus could reach the blood
stream, that 1t could cause assesses in
bones and muscles, could cause gang
rene Of the tissues and even Of whole
limbs, infections Of the gall bladder.
and many other surgical disorders.
In that same year in the war with
Spain we learned fearful lesson of
what 1t could do. Every fifth man in
our army Of 1O7, 600 was attacked with
typhoid. It caused over SO per cent
Of all the deaths in that war. Had the
same ratio held in the British army Of
over 100000 in the world war there
would have been more than 1000 900
cases of typhoid. Instead Of that.
down to November, 1915, there had
been only 4,571 cases! In our own
army on the Mexican border in 1915,
among 10000 troops only. one man fell
Ill with typhoid, although 1t was prevo-
lent in nearby towns. In our pres
ent army, from September 2. 1917, to
January 25, 1918. with a daily average
Of 742.625 men assembled from all over
the country, often from places where
autumnal typhoid was taking it's an
nual toll Of lives, only 119 cases of ty--
phoid occurred. Had the 1893 rate
prevailed there would have been 144,-
568 cases. AS soon as all these re-
cruits were protected by vaccination.
the case rate fell SO rapidly that in
the II weeks from December z, 1917,
to April 5, 191S-a period longer than
our war with Spain-there were only
ten cases among probably nearly l.,
10000 men.

Smallest Bird ls, American;
400 Species Of Hummers;
Only In Western Hemisphere

The smallest and most brilliantly col.
Cred of all feathered creatures are the
humming birds, and Of the 400 species
nome Is to be found elsewhere than In
this western hemisphere, notes a writ
er in the Arkansas Gazette.
The largest Of these birds are no
more than eight and a half inches and
the .mallest about two and three
eighths in length. OF these the larg-
est are never seen far north and the
smallest rarely. The ruby-thrOated
hu;nmlng bird, called by Audubon "a
glittering fragment Of the rainbow"
breeds from the far southern states
as far north as Labrador and winters
from southern Florida to Central
America. remaining with us from May
to october. It's length is about three
end one-quarter inches. The upper
plumage is metallic green, the male
having ruby red gorget, a white col
lar on the throat and deeply forked
tail of brownish violet. The female
is Of palmer colorings. The eggs, new
er more than two, are white and about
as large as peas.
1t Is popular mistake that hum
ming birds feed only on the honey in
flowers. They really for the most part
feed on. insects, gathered with their
harbed and sticky tongues from flow-
ers and leaves. They are, notwith-
standing their diminutive size, very
pugnacious and will attack birds much
larger than themselves, so that the
English sparrow, with all his vaunted
courage, dare not intrude on their
nests.

The popular idea that a person
