Painters Frenzy.

The painter-engraver, Alexander Lu-
nois, excelled in Oriental scenes. He
had passed half his life in the hands
of the NIusselman. His works were
full of light, full of color, full of move
ment. During his last Illness, at Par.
is, where his elegant apartments
looked out upon the quay, he was on
his couch, burning up with fever.
From time to time he threw a glance
upon a beautiful Van Dyck. The pic,
ture was covered by a glass. Sudden
~ in the reflections Of glass of water
he imagined that he saw in the spark
ling light q dance of odalisques, such
as in former days he had seen in Con-
stantinople. He could not restrain
himself. He leaped from his bed and,
all trembling, he seized his palette.
mis- brushes, and frantically set at
work upon a marvellous sketch. His
wife found him, nude save for slight
covering over his shoulders, his eyes
sunken, his teeth chattering, painting
with the fury of mailman. She led
him back to his couch. He died few
days later, and the last picture Of the
great artist remained unfinished.

FIRST TEACHERS TO CHINA
Missionaries Followed the Close OF
the War With Great Britain
In fe45.

The first general attempt to intro
duce Christianity into China dates
from April "a, 1915, when the Chinese
government, following the disastrous
war with Great Britain, granted per-
mission to foreigners 10 teach the
Christian religion. Missionaries from
many countries began Immediately u
flock to China, but In most places the
white devils were received with hos
tility. The Emperor Taou-Kwans,
who in the latter part of his reign
favored the introduction of European
arts and religion, died in 1850, and
his son, Hieng-Fung, adopted a reac-
tionary policy. ..-..
One of the odd results of the intro
duction of Christianity in China was
the appearance in 1851 Of rebel lead
err who called himself Tien-teh, and
who announced himself as the restor-
err of the worship Of the true god
Shang-ti, and derived many of his dog
mas from the Bible. He called him.
self the brother Of Jesus, the second
son of God and the monarch Of all be-
meath the skies, and demanded uni
versal submission. His insurgent fol-
lowers called themselves Taepings, or
"'Prince Of peace" but the title was
utterly belied by their atrocious deeds.

SMALL SUM FOR "CAMILLE"
Alexandra Dumas Fills Received Only
$50 for Manuscript of Great
.s Story.

s. In the Hotel Drouot recently, the
library of Jules Claretie, the eminent
French journalist, novelist, dramatic
author and former director of the
Coincide Franchise, who died in 1916,
was sold. Among other gems, his COL
lection Of books included the manu-
script Of Alexandra Dumas Fills "Tale
Of a Lottery" sixteen pages in all, pub.
lished in 1851. The manuscript con-
tanned a letter from Dumas to Jules
Claretie, informing the latter that for
these sixteen pages he was paid the
sum of $240.
II was almost as much ashamed as
was pleased" writes Dumas, "to re-
ceive this amount. 1t was far more
than l was paid for my entire manu-
script of La Dame aux Comellias,'
which l sold to Michel Levy for the
sum Of $50.
y This novel, which Michel Levy pur-
chased for $50, yielded the latter $780,
600. Long after he had signed it.,
Dumas regretted this contract which
enriched his publisher at so slight o
profit to himself.

NHY ONE MORE
LOAN IS NEEDED
It Will Settle Nations War
Debts and Will Care for
Sick and Wounded.

Once in a while some one asks:
whats the need Of another Liberty
Loan now that the war is over?"
Revenue from taxes will not be suf-
ficient to pay all the bills, so the
people will be called upon to provide
the money by subscribing to govern
ment bonds. This money is going to
pay off the army of producers at home
the farmers, merchants, manufac-
turers and others.
America had just begun to fight
when the Hun decided it was time to
quit. Allied leaders expected the war
to last another year and the United
States government was turning out
ships, arms, ammunition and food to
oyerwhelm Germany in one big
drive.
Treasury officials have revealed
that in 1919 America would have had
tank at the front for every seventy
| five feet of line We would have had
ten tons OF mustard gas ready for
shipment for every ton Germany
could produce. Thousands of batter
les of guns would have been in act
ion for every one America had in 1918.
Everything else was being produced
in proportion. -
This gigantic preparation brought
an early end to the war and saved
thousands of lives. Victory Liberty
Bonds will pay for this work which
had been contracted for and was be:
ing delivered when the armistice was
signed.
There are other purposes for which
money is need. Part of our army OF
100000 men must be kept in Europe
until the peace treaty is signed.
These soldiers must be fed, clothed
and otherwise maintained. Then they
must be brought home.
The sick and wounded must be car
ed for in hospitals. The army must
be demobilized There are thousands
of manned soldiers, heroes of the
great war, who must be taught self
supporting trades and given an oppor-
tunity to earn their living. .
| This reconstruction work at home
must be carried on. The job must be
| finished. The American people who
| furnished the money to win the war
must supply it also to bring the'na-
| ton back to a peace basis.

Not Easy to "Get Off the Earth"

So great is the power Of gravitation
that man Is practically prisoner upon
the earth's surface, even the aviator
who temporarily escapes to height Of
10000 feet or more. Yet a human be-
ing might leave it forever, If he made
his departure at sufficient speed to
overcome the weight Of the ball upon
which we live, 7000000,000,0 900, 000,-
100000 tons.
The rnuzzle velocity Of shell from
the most powerful cannon is about s.
900 feet per second, but this projectile
will fall to the ground after traversing
few miles, so its speed would have
to be greatly exceeded by the indlvidu-
al desiring to penetrate into space.
If a projectile could be fired at
rate Of 10000 feet per second, writes
Charles Nevers Holmes In Popular Sci
ence Monthly, it would probably never
fall to the surface.
[ When science makes possible an ini-
tial velocity of $4,000 feet second,
about seven miles, then a projectile
would burst through the attraction OF
our planet and rush on into trackless
space.
