Why Japan Has Few Autos.

A report just issued by the bureau
of foreign and domestic commerce says
that as a general rule there are no suit.
able roads to be found throughout the
Chinese republic. Shanghai is the cen.
ter for mOtorcars, as result of its
foreign population Of approximately
10000. Registered cars in the city
number about 1000, and some two OF
three hundred are In storage.
There are only 200 cars In ali OF
Japan, but the recent prosperity has
greatly stimulated the demand. Ameri
cans have had most Of the business
since the war started. The abundance
Of money among the buying class and
the desire to own cars is, however, of.
set by the lack Of suitable roads and
bridges.

Why Sell Eggs by the Pound.

For several years the plan of selling
eggs by the pound instead of by the
dozen has been agitated among the
Canadian grocers, and In some towns
the system has already been put In
practice. A trade journal which called
upon large number of dealers for an
expression of opinion Of this point
states that the weight of opinion vas
In favor of the movement. The only
obstacle In the way Of unanimous In
dorsement of the plan is that the pub,
lie has not been educated to buy in
this way" AS refuting this objection
1t Is pointed out that in view of the
wide variation in the size of eggs the
consumer would quickly realize that
the system offers fairer and juster
basis Of charge than mere number.

How Soft Coal Is Made Hard.

Converting bituminous coal into an
equivalent Of hard coal Is late de-
velopment that will have a far-reach-
ing effect on American industry, ac-
cording to Popular Mechanics maya
zine. The new fuel is entirely smoke
less and under the new process by
products now wasted are recovered.
These largely compensate for the cost
of conversion. A plant has been in
operation in the East for some time,
perfecting the process and making
tests of practical character. The
raw coal Is subjected to distillation
process at low temperatures, the resi-
due being pressed into hard, durable
bricks that are again subjected to dis
tillation and produce an intense heat.

For many years medical men have
been hunting for place that would be
absolutely germ-proof. and at last 1t

we have learned a great deal about
the air that we never knew before. II
we go high enough. there are no germs
and the pressure Is less also as we
60 higher up. The question now Is,
wouldn't 1t be good thing to put our
hospitals up there, at least those deal
ing with open wounds and diseases
that needs lots Of fresh air, such as
tuberculosis? Enormous airships could
be anchored above our heads and the
patients could be carried up In air
planes. Stranger things than that are
happening every day around us, and
physicians say that the idea even now
is more than a pipe dream. Such a
hospital would be ideal for children
with the ricketts,. Up in the clouds,
where there was nothing but pure air
and sunlight, the very lack of which
caused their disease, they would prob
ably come down in few weeks totally
cured.

HOW RECORD OF WARS
NV HAPPENINGS WILL

BE SHOWN TO POSTERITY.
In order to keep q true and au-
thentic record Of the great world
war. Austria year ago request
ed the burgomaster of every
town and city. both In Ger
many and Austria. to record
events and occurrences during
the conflict In their various CON-
munities.
According to a German news
paper. this will constitute a ire
mendous amount Of authentic
material from which a compre-
hensive history Of the war can
be written In the future. The
Idea Is to learn how each town
and city suffered during the war,
the food the population had,
what they ate, drank and wore,
how many from each community
went to the front, how many
were wounded. and how many
died, and anything of interest
relating Immediately to the
struggle.
The material is to be sent to
the public librarian at Vienna,
who will compile II and file II
so as to make 1t readily avail
able. 1t is estimated that this
matter alone will require over a
hundred volumes to adequately
tell the story of the struggle and
privations Of the people. This
will not include the history of
the military operations, descrip-
lions Of battles, ETC., which will
be written by military experts
who actually took part In them.
In addition several eminent
painters and artists who went to
the front will contribute illustra-
lions giving pictorial concep-
ton Of the struggle. This en-
tire history will require years of
preparation, but when completed
1t Is asserted that II will be
the most interesting and compre-
hensive history of great strug-
bic that ever has been compiled
or published.

plies. When they started back to
America there were no cargoes for
them in French ports. so It was neces-
sary for some of them to carry some
thing for ballast. There being nothing
else handy. tons upon tons Of French
soil was loaded into the holds Of re-
turning ships just to balance them In
case they encountered rough weather
on the voyage.
When the ships reached America the
soil was unloaded and used to reclaim
marshy lands. More than fifty acres
Of lowland was filled with this French
soil at the st. Helena naval base. This
land was never used before the French
soil arrived. Now IT Is being made into
attractive grounds. which may also In
clude flower gardens.

THE TAIL OF THE DOG.

There seems to be going odd reversal Of opinion
with regard to the peace treaty proper and the League of
Nations covenant Incorporated in it,
There is little more talk heard about separating the
covenant from treaty and considering each its
merits without regard to the other Even the enemes
Of the League of Nations admitting that this can
not be done. The two stand OF fall together
And standing together, they assume new relation
to each other Instead Of being appendage to the main
treaty almost begins to appear that the treaty an ap
pendage to the covenant
The situation is put with striking clearness by Of
the New York newspapers Pointing out the abvious I'M
perfections of the settlement, it says:
'What saves it, what guarantees safe and reason
able Interpretation in accordance with the needs of JUS
tice is the League Of Nations which is the instrument
through which the treaty is be executed and the tribunal
through which it is to be construed and applied"
President Wilson himself seemed to take this position
in his address to congress- His faith in the German
treaty as stands obviously based not on any confidence
in the explicit provisions made by the Paris conference so
much as in the handling Of them by permanent inter-
national executive body succeeding the peace conference
1t would be absurd of course, to expect treaty OF
such compey and of such severity with regard to the
Central Powers to administer itself But the emphasis
now placed on the League of Nations the admnisra
tive power provided to execute the treaty. and also as
the judicial tribunal to determine its application in any
questionable case is something new.
Formerly the League of Nations was thought OF
by many of us merely the tail Of the peace dog Now
it looks as if the tail may wag the dog.
