labeled with the quantity of contents
when shipped within the jurisdiction
of the Federal Food and Drugs Act,
say the officials of the Bureau of

The requirements of the net weight

WILL NEVER TRY THE
KAISER rs THE BELIEF
Are Unable to Discover What Steps d
Can Be Taken-tiolIand Slow
To Surrender Him.

Paris.-The best opinion expressed
m peace conference circles here is
entirely incredulous concerning the
possibility of bringing the kaiser to :
trial.
No steps whatever have been
taken to, that end, and those most
intimately concerned are unable to
discover what steps can be taken to
make him amendable as he enjoys
the sanctuary of Holland, which can
not be violated unless single ma
ton can specifically indict him for
an extraditable offense In that event
he must be tried by tribunal and
under the laws Of that nation, not
by mixed tribunal before which
he could be brought only If surren-
dered by Holland. And Holland, re-
garding him as political offender,
shows no sign of surrendering him.
No analogy is offered by Napoleon
as he surrendered to an enemy pow
err. That the ex-kaiser will be
brought to trial is not entertained
in any responsible quarter in Paris.
Besides, the objection to making a
martyr of him reduces the keenness
of his pursuit, although it is not
likely it will be formally abandoned
for some time.
The leisurely procedure of the Ger
mans over the treaty raises the
question whether the allies will give
an extension beyond the Is days
maximum for their representations
I hear they may get one or two days,
not more.
The Italian problem is still unset
tied evoking the possibility Of cri-
| teal situation.

SOME WIVES WE'RE THEsel

Small Village.
Two women, curiously enough, seem
to have the record for the largest
families that are known. And both
lived across the ocean. They each
had exactly the same number of chill
dren: sixty-two! e.4r
One was the wife of poor weaver
in Scotland, who bore her husband
forty-six boys and four girls, who
grew to manhood and womanhood,
and twelve others who died ere reach
ing their prime.
An English baronet adopted ten of
the sons-rather a large order; three
other landed gentry took ten each,
and the remainder were brought up
by their parents.
The other woman was a peasant
girl Of Tuscany, Gravata by name. She
set the seal on the family reputation
and assured herself of endless fame,
although she led off unostentatiously
enough with baby girl, by present
ling her husband with six little boys,
and followed that the next year with
five more!
Then came triplets twice, which
were followed by quartet. Then
ensued a long procession of ones and
twos, and, as wind-ups lest her
reputation should suffer eclipse, came
four more boys-all at once. bringing
the grand total of her living chill
dren to sixty-two. Thus, two women
gave birth to 124 children; a small
village.
