Thermometers Vary.

The readings of old mercury ther-
mometers are often too high, while
spirit thermometers with age are IL
able to give indications lower than the
actual temperatures. Shrinkage OF
the bulb, forcing the mercury up the
tube, has been suggested as the cause
of the high readings. For the OPP
posite effect, several theories have
been offered-such as taking up some
Of the spirit in an invisible film wet
ting the bore of the tube, or chemical
combination of the spirit with the
glass or evaporation through invisible
cracks-but 1t Is now believed that an
explanation simpler than the early
ones is available. Mercury thermom-
eters sealed off when almost filled,
contain practically no air, the tubes
thus being given the reduced internal
pressure favoring shrinkage. But
spirit thermometers are sealed with
the bulbs in a freezing mixture, so
that they may contain as much air
as possible, and such bulbs are con-
stantly subjected to an internal pres
sure greater than outside. This gives
the tendency to expand, allowing the
spirit to fall too low In the tube.

AUSTRIAN DEsP0T IN ITALY
Excellent Reasons Why Commandment
In Town Of Buje Was Feared
and Detested.

During the war, Austria, fearing
and hating the Italians of Istria. placed
every town under drastic military con-
troll.
1t was the chief task of Colonel
Vogelhueber, commander Of Buje. to
make the Italians feel his presence.
They had felt it one day. licensed by
his latest DEGREES, they had come in
crowds below his windows. discussing.
gesticulating, angrily demanding an
audience, until his troops had rammed
them in the stomach with the butts
of rifles and driven them off-off to
their homes where they would find that
during their absence a few more OBJ
jects had mysteriously disappeared,
wooden clothing, perhaps, or some
pieces of furniture or cherished pic
ture. Not stolen. of course, but "requi-
sitioned." 1t was neat.
He had had a good day but he
would have a better evening. They
had wanted an audience. Very well.
That evening he would grant an audi
ence to their leading citizens. More
than that-he would dine them!
The leading citizens of Buje will
not soon forget that dinner. The meal
itself was excellent-infinitely better
than any that they had had for months.
1t consisted of meats "requisitioned"
from their own herds and fiocks, grains
from their own fields, wine from their
own cellars. The host, Colonel vogel-
hueber. sat at the head of the table,
all smiles and benignity. He was
solicitous that every one should have
plenty. When the repast was finished,
he rose.
He called the attention Of the Ital-
ians Of Buje to the fact that he had
sent very few of them to Austrian in
ternment camps. He emphasized his
tolerance and liberality in this matter.
His action, however, had been guided
by definite purpose. 1t might please
them to be Informed as to the purpose
which he had had in mind.
II do not care to intern you," he
said. in smiling climax, because
prefer to execute you!
'"The troops of Italy are at present
making some advance. / wish simply
to announce to you now that before
they ever reach Buje shall have the
pleasure of seeing every man Of you
shot. Good night, gentlemen. The
pleasure has been nine"
Then, showing the yellow streak al
ways present in such natures, he
hastily summoned his soldiers, and
every guest was escorted to the street
at the point of bayonet.
A gay, dashing wag was voglehu-
Der. Dashing he was certainly, g few
weeks later, when the italian Ber-
sagliere swept into Buje so suddenly
that he did not have time to make good
his promise, but found it prudent to
run to save his own skin, even leaving
a precious carload of stolen treas
ures behind him.-Willard Price, In
World Outlook.

FIREWORKS
The Chinaman has New Years fire

| The Chinaman has New Years nre-
works.
Christmas fireworks are common IN
the South. Their noise does not adj
vance any Christmas idea; neither
does noise, fire and carnage OF old
fashioned "Fourths" inculcate patrio-
tism.
The want Of fireworks rests on a de-
sire for excitement, not patriotism.
Thoughtfui men and women recog-
nized these facts years ago and found
no justification for the heavy fire
works toll in life, limb and property.
A nationwide campaign against the
inexcusable sacrifices resulted, and
year by year the toll was lighter.
Wisconsin took an active part IN
this campaign. 1t has been worth
while. The property loss due to fire.
works the last three years in Wis
consin was as follows: 1917-$12,O60;
191S-$3, $50; and 1919-$470.
AS against the large sacrifice of
life and limb in former years, we
learned of no fatality or serious ac-
cident, in this state, last Fourth-of-
July. We hope to have none this
year.
Fire prevention prevents. Love OF
humanity has triumphed over mean
ingless noise.
Picnics, band concerts, children's
pageants, parades and other suitable
amusements and exercises will re-
habilitate independence Day as day
of real rejoicing and patriotism.
The laws and regulations governing
fireworks last year are unchanged
and in full force and effect.
Section 4397a prohibits the sale
and possession and bringing into the
state of fireworks containing picrie
acid, picrates, chlorate of potash COM
pound, dynamite, mixture of dyna-
mite or other high explosive mix
lures, explosive canes, using blank
cartridges or explosive paper caps,
blank cartridge pistols, or and fire.
crackers more than inches in length
and one-half inch in diameter.
Order 6095 of the General Orders
on Fire Prevention reads as follows:
"No fire crackers, rockets, torpe-
does. Roman candles, bombs or other
fireworgs, and on pistols, cannons, ex-
plosive canes, blank cartridges, or
other similar appliances or displays,
shall be stored in place nearer than
200 feet from neighboring building,
except wholesale storage IN original
packages. Such fireworks, applianc-
es, or displays except rockets and
Roman candles, shall not be discharg-
ed, fired, or used within 200 feet from
any building. This order shall not
apply to fireworks displays made und-
er the direction of town or municipal
authorities, provided the same do not
violate the provisions of Sect. 1881
of the statutes, and provided further
that no fire balloons shall be stored
or used under any circumstances"
Many cities have ordinances on this
subject.
1t is the duty of the police officials
to strictly enforce the state laws,
regulation, and the local ordinance.
Municipal celebrations should be
held in parks or other places away
from buildings whose single roofs
are ever ready to catch and spread
fires.
Let sanity prevail over dangerous
folly.

 In a telephone conversation Friday, Manager Warhurst of Plainfield in formed the Ashland management that the royal rooters" were coming down about 500 strong and that noise making devices to help out their voices were at a premium.
 This will please the Jewett City fans who have a reputation well established for noise makers themselves.
 This series should prove to be one of
