INVENTIONS OF THE WAR.

A. Russell Bond, managing editor of
The Scientific American, and author
of "On the Battle Front of Engineer
ing" etc, has written remarkably
interesting and stimulating book in
'Inventions of the Great War; which
has just been published Much Of
what was invented for war purposes
can be made serviceable for peaceful
uses.
Three great inventions, says Mr.
Bond. controlled the character of the
fighting between 1914 and 1918, and
they were all American. THE sub
marine was our invention" he goes
on; 1T carried the war under the sea
The airplane was an American inven-
ton; it carried the war into the sky
We invented the machine gun; it
drove war into the ground
The most important invention made
during the war for war purposes was
the tank, and that was British, though
America may take some pride in the
fact that she offered the inspiration
in tractor
Probably the most outstanding con
tribution of Germany to the war,
though it cannot be classed as an in
vention, Mr.. Bond says, was poison
gas. But perhaps the Germans were
sorry they ever used it, for the allies
were soon producing more and even
deadlier gases than their enemies.
Austria contributed the long range
gun, which was spectacular. and might
have been destructive of morale upon
victims other than the French. But
Austrias huge portable cannon were
remarkably effective: they made use
less fortreSses that had been con
structed and maintained at enormous
expense.
For the first time since the war the
secret Of the terrible methyl, or Lew
isite, has just been given out. Methyl,
which has been produced at the rate
of ten tons a day, is seventy times
deadlier than mustard gas, and, had
it been used. it would undoubtedly
have ended the war at once.

THE SUCCESSFUL MAN.

Have you ever noticed what differ
ence there is between the appearances
of men? We do not mean mans
physical appearance or the clothes he
wears; we mean the air of individual
ity he exhibits in his association with
other men.
There are those who pose-who
seek to make others believe that they
are something which they are not.
Putting on the 'front.'" it is called.
All such efforts usually fail in the end.
A pose is like a lie or a theft-it is
certain to be found out Some time,
and. when the truth is discovered, the
man who has been depending upon
those false pretenses to aid him in
building up Z career loses all the adj
vantages he may have gained.
Look closely at the really successful
man and what do you find? If you
are keenly observant, you will dis
cover that he actually radiates self
confidence. AS he walks the streets
you can tell by the way he holds his
head and the swing of his body that
he is a man who can be trusted to
come pretty near to doing whatever
he undertakes. 1t isn't a pose with
him. 1t isn't an air of self-assumed
superiority, donned for the purpose of
advertising his capabilities to the
world 1t is born of consciousness
that he is master of himself and of
men

PRIEST TELLS WHY WORLD
DIDN'T END.

Now that the last day of the world"
has passed and the world didn't end
after all, probably a good many of us
are wondering just what all the fuss
was about anyhow. Father NJ. S.
Brennan of st. Louis, an astronomer,
whose opinion has been quoted many
times. explains just what might be ex-
pected to take place in the heavens on
December II.
The solar system, he said, would be
DeTturbed, or, to use a term more
readily understood, six of the planets
would be drawn slightly out of their
orbits.
The phenomenon would be due to
what is known as a near conjunction.
Six of the planets, Neptune, Jupiter,
Saturn, Mars, Venus and Mercury.
would be on the same side of the sun.
Uranus was to be on the opposite side,
and the earth, off to one side with it's
inhabitants looking on.
Jupiter, Saturn, Mars and Venus
are morning stars, and such an align
ment as took place December II will
not occur again for nearly two thou
sand years
Though six of the planets were to
pull in one direction, Father Brennan
didn't expect the weather on the earth
or sun spot activity to be affected.
AS the solar system is static-that
is, tending to revert to it's normal con
dition-the perturbation soon will be
rectified, and the planets will get back
to their regular orbits.
In fact, they would not be drawn
aside enough for the perturbation to

but astronomers with their accurate
instruments would be able to indicate
the number of degrees the planets are
out of their regular orbits.

THE DOG OF 1T.

When he jumps on you with muddy
paws,
When an ancient bone he gnaws,
You'll hear some cynic say
In a cold disguised way,
That's the dog of it,"
The dog of it''-perhaps it's true,
But when you're down and out and
through,
When you haven't single friend,
His love lives to the end,
That's the dog of it
When the heart most loved grows
cold,
And you're ugly, poor and old,
Though he hasn't enough to eat,
He follows with love at your feet.
That's the dog of it."
And when you're under the ground,
Forgotten your lonely mound,
He will remember, and steal away
To lie beside it night and day.
That's the dog of it,

SToRk'S VISIT TO SCOTLAND.

The white stork of the continent of
Europe, which is encouraged in most,
and even protected in some, of the
countries to which it resorts to breed,
and round which much story and le-
gend have gathered, has been known
for centuries to be an occasional Wis
itor to the British isles, chiefly to Nor
folk, but very rarely to Scotland,
though it has never been known to
nest or even attempt to do so in Brit
ain.
However, record of its having
nestled in Scotland appears in Good
alls edition of the Standardization.
This work was begun by John For
dun, who died about 1884, and was
continued by Walter Bower, the abbot
OF Inchcolm. 1t is in Bowers chroni-
cles for 1416 that the story appears

Commenting on this, Lord Lagle
