Marquis dArgenson Founded
the Municipal Police System

The first man to organize q munich
pal police system along modern lines
was the Marquis dArgenson, who died
In Paris 197 years ago. D,Argenson
was native of Venice and first
achieved fame In that republic, where
he was state secret agent. In 1897
he went to France and became the
head of the police department In Paris.
Coming Of a high family. he was
considered to have degraded himself
BY accepting this post. but he soon
raised the Office to his own level. The
gendarmes Of Paris were made into
highly efficient force, and D'Argen-
son also formed body Of secret
agents. such as would now be called
detectives. Later he laid the founda-
ton for the French secret service and
sent spies to all countries with which
France might become involved in war.
The system Of international Espionage
he inaugurated was perfected by Karl
Stiezer, who organized the Prussian
secret service and sent thousands Of
bis men into Austria and France prior
70 Prussta's wars against those coun-
ries.

OF INTEREST TO
POULTRY GROWERS

House early, hatch early, lay early.
are the keynotes Of success In poultry
raising" said John L. Prehn, extern
sion poultry husbandman Of the de-
partment Of agriculture and the extern
sion division of the Kansas State Ag-
ricultural college.
AT this season of the year the main
and fundamental point Is to have all
strong, vigorous. well matured pullets
housed in their winter quarters. The
reason for this is that they may be-
come accustomed to their new quarters
and to each other before they start
laying. Moving birds from one place
u another has a tendency to stop or
retard the egg yield. Early housing
means early laying. Early laying
means more profits and early fall lay
ing means early spring Matching. It Is
the early Matched pullet that pays. It
is the early housed pullet that lays.
In placing those pullets in their win.
ter quarters the last general culling
should be done for the winter.
IF this general idea is followed for
a period Of years." said Mr.. Prehn,
"the profits will increase very materi.
ally. Every poultry raiser should
keep in mind the adage, house early,
hatch early, lay early"

1let Time Do It." When It
Comes to Evening Up" Old
Scores CT Fancied Injury

A gentleman who believed he had
been insulted or mistreated by anoth-
81, notes a writer in the Columbus
CO., Dispatch. rushed into the Office
Of friend. the other day-a big bust
ness man-and declared he would get
even" with the fellow In some way.
But the big business man hardly
looked up from his desk as he replied.
Let time do It."
The man Of big affairs then deliv-
cred a little sermon something after
this fashion: II have often felt Ike
getting even with somebody, but ]
have never done 50. ! have let time
do 1t. Time always evens up things
better than I could do so. II q man
doesn't treat me right, there is some
thing wrong with him; he has soma
defect that will prove to be his undo
ing. So when I am offended or mis-
treated or injured, I Just wait. Time
does the work. Why, only yesterday
l found place for fellow who was
my bitter enemy ten years ago-a
man who circulated malicious state
ments against me and tried to ruin
my credit at the bank. He failed mis-
erably in business himself, and went
down and ont. A few days ago he
appealed to me to help him-and did
50. because time had gotten even with
him.
Greater philosophy never came from
the lips Of man. Time evens up all
things. It captures the thief. it pun
ishes the liar. 1t pals the hand Of the
murderer. The orenses that may be
committed against you today are look.
ed after by time. And no man ever
''got even" with another by doing him
an injustice.

important industry in Japan as far
back as the time of the Emperor
Suiko, A. D. 592-629, the art having
been introduced from China. 1t Is
said that paper was introduced into
Europe from Egypt, but in China the
industry may have been as old as in

Stamp Collectors Will Be
Kept Busy Gathering Many
Issues the Result of War

The war has brought about great
changes in the world of stamps. And
stamps themselves have been changed
in appearance.
Practically all Of our colonies had
their stamps overprinted with the
words such as "War Tax" ''War
Stamp" "Red Cross" or just the one
word, war
Our expeditionary forces. too, did
not forget to announce their possess
sion Of conquered country by over
printing the local stamps with "Under
British Occupation" In other cases
the ordinary stamps have been used
with the name Of the new possession
printed on them.
These changes are plentiful enough
to fill book which has just been COM
piled under the title Stamp Collec-
tons for War Museums"
1t gives a splendid idea OF what has
been done all over tie world in tho
way Of war stamps. including pictures
OF q remarkable issue printed entirely
