It now costs 1876 francs to set up one

The Successful SpecuIator.

The conversation around the ticker
had turned to the question of financial
courage and the small proportion of
spectators who ,are able to make a
heap of all their winnings and risk it
on one turn of pitch and toss." And
one trader said:
''Has it ever occurred to you that
exactly the same qualities are needed
for successful speculation as for COM
mand of an army? Your big specula-
tor must be a man not only of keen
judgment but Of quick decision, and
he must be big enough to change his
position on the instant with fuctu-
atings market conditions. He must
never let himself be taken by surprise.
He must, if suffering from immediate
loss, be able to put that behind him
and plan. to snatch victory from de-
feat. Finally he must have the su.
prepe quality of the soldier-courage.
Pehaps this is why there are so few
really successful spectators. "-Wal]

WAGE WAR ON ALFALFA PESTS
Parasites Will Be Imported to Fight
Destructive Work Of WeeviI
in Many States.

Within the last dozen years a de-
structive insect called the alfalfa wee
vii has appeared numerously in north
ern Utah and parts of Idaho, Wyoming
and Colorado. 1t is a small beetle, and
does a lot of damage to one Of the
most important forage crops.
The United States bureau of ento-
mology has been called upon to fight
this beetle, and in addition to devising
means for destroying it has gone SO
far as to import from Europe (whence
the insect ca1ne) fly parasites that
prey upon it over there. The parasites
are Matched and bred in little wire
cages covered with cheesecloth, which
are scattered thickly over the alfalfa
fields.
What is most desired is to prevent
the spread of the beetle into other re-
gions. By adopting the control meas,
ures already worked out the farmer
can prevent injury to his alfalfa at a
cost of only 81 an acre per annum-
a cheap rate.

FLYING FISH NOT A MYTH
Capable of Sustained Flights
Through the Air.

Does the flying fish really fly? Or
does it merely leap out of the water
and glide through the air?
This is a question that has been
much disputed; which is rather odd
considering how many people have
had opportunities to watch at leisure
the aerial "stunts" of the fnny species
in question.
The fact, as asserted by eminent
naturalists, is that the flying fish does
fly. In flight it will sometimes turn
at right angles, or even at very acute
angle. Nay, more, it is occasionally
observed to turn about swiftly and
come back ina direction opposite to
that in which it's course was begun.
From the bow Of ship one may see
the wings Of flying fishes flap as they
hurry to get out of the way. When III
full flight the outlines of their "wings"
are blurred to the eye, so rapid are
the flappings.
They sometimes fly $50 or 200 yards
without rising more than a couple Of
feet above the surface of the sea.
Often they are observed to rise over
the crests Of waves and sink into the
hollows. These performances could
not be accomplished by mere leaping
and gliding. =.
Flying fishes are able to rise to a
considerable height, and often come
on board Of large steamers. Such a
vessel is as high above the water as a
tall house. When they arrive upon
the deck they cannot rise and fly
away; but the same is true of many
sea birds.

LONELY MAN DIED BELOVED
Hermit of Grubb Street Had Kindly
II N Qualities That Endeared Him To- 7
f&<,Sz Many Who Never Knew Him. =.

2H .t. tj--E,' si, ,
Usually when one hears of aahermit
It is to associate him with the will
>derness OF some desolate place, where,
surrounded by wild nature, he passes
his time like the beasts Of the field,
depending upon :. the fruits of an un-
titled earth for his sustenance and to
a cave in the rocks for his covering
at night. , -..-.
But the story of Henry Welby, the
hermit Of Grubb street. as told in a
curious old work published in the sew
enteenth century, is of man pos
sessed of wealth who retired to his
mansion owing to the bad treatment
Of a younger brother, and who for
forty years was seen by no one; neith-
er did he leave his house until his
death, on Oct. 20, 1886, when he was
borne on the shoulders of the men
who carried him to his grave. .
On his retirement from the world
he took very fair house in the lower
end of Grubb street, and had it pre-
pared for his purpose and in such a
way that the three rooms in which he
lived enabled him to eat, sleep and
write without ever being seen by his
servants. His food was of the sim
plest character, and when his bed was
making he went into his study. In all
of these years he tasted neither flesh
fish nor wine.
On Christmas his table was loaded
with great cheer, but of it he never
tasted, sending it to- the poor of the
neighborhood. His benefactions to the
needy we're great. and his death was
sincerely mourned by many who had
never seen him.-Chicago Journal.

TURK EY HELPED 3 7 GERMANS:
Jute Bags, Designed to Block suez

It is always a pleasure to acknowl-
edge a debt Of gratitude to ones foes.
The German occupation has left many
a. nightmare in this poor land; but
some benefits as well. One Of these
has recently come to light. Hundreds
of poor are peddling on the streets of
Constantinople jute bags, with handles,
which are very convenient for carrying
home rice or onions or bread or patti
jan (egg-piant) or any other purchase.
For six or seven cents, one can have q
good strong bag. a.
The story Of these is interesting.
During the early days of the war, when
the campaign against Egypt was un-
dertaken, the plan was conceived of
driving the British back to the Suez
canal, filling up the. canal with the
sands of the desert, and walking over
into the new Promised Land, and thus
"delivering' Egypt from the yoke of
tyranny. To facilitate this project,
the Germans sent into this country
millions Of jute bags, which were to
be filled with sand and piled into the
canal in hurry when the eonquering
invaders reached it's banks.
When the American committee for
relief in the near East sent out it's
shiploads of supplies for the starving
of this country, and no warehouses
could be had for love or money at Con-
stantinople, the fine large German
warehouses at Derindje, on the gulf OF
Nicomedia, were reQuistioned for this
humanitarian purpose, and granted to
the relief committee In these were
found about one million of these Ger
man bags For long time they were
left alone; but recently some enter.
prising firm has got hold Of them, cut
each one in two so as to make it of
convenient size, stitched up the ends
put handles on-and the population OF
Constantinople thanks the Germans
for their unintentional gift! And the
SueZ canal is still open for traffic.

Pace was discovered in the Indiana
State Reformatory, at Jeffersonville,
where he had been sent last October
to serve from two to fourteen years
for forgery. The Kentucky mountaineer
confessed to officials that ne escaped
Jail at Manchester, Clay County, and

Correspondence between Governor
Morrow of Kentucky and Governor
Goodrich OF Indiana led to a condi-

he walked from the Jeffersonville prison.
Pace was taken back to Clay County

Pace killed his father, for whom Re
was named, and his stepmother, Mrs
Mahala Pace, on January IS, 1916. He

that no country in the world had to
