Mont Blanc has been accepted as
extending 1912 feet above sea level
just IS feet short of three miles. As
matter Of fact its height has varied
from time TO time. The highest Wis
ible stone In the mountain was III
feet below the top. the crest itself
being made up OF an unknown thick
ness OF ice and consolidated snow.
This cap becomes slightly lower in
summer, due to melting. but Is re-
newed in winter.
Partly hidden among lesser peaks
and foothills. Mont Blanc was prac-
tically unknown TO western Europe
until 1744. At first local mountain
climbers and tourists visited only the
lower ends of the glaciers-amOng
them the famous Mer de Glace-near
the French village of Chamonix. For
more than a quarter of a century a
standing reward for anyone who
would discover route TO the top,
was uncollected. Finally on August
u, 1885, the crest was reached by a
peasant guide, Jacques Balmat. He
became more than locally famous and
received the quixotic gift of patent
of nobility from the king Of Sardinia.

days. was conspicuous during the
struggle for being squeezed between
the Austro-German armies on the
north. and other central powers for
ces attacking on the south.
Moldavia had approximately one
fourth of the population and one
fourth of the. area of the Roumania
OF 1914. The population is a little
less than two and a quarter million,
and the area a little less than 1900
square miles. To the west of Ii lie
Pennsylvania and the Austrian crown
lands of Bukowina. To the east lies
BeSsarabia, with the river Pruth mark
Ing the boundary the entire distance.
On the south is Wallachia, the other
wing OF the Roumanian kingdom.
The Sereth river divides Moldavia
into eastern and western sections,
flowing the entire length of the prin-
cipality along the foothills Of the
Carpathian mountains. Eastern Mol
davia, composed mainly of the high
plateau lying between the Pruth and
the Sereth. is approximately 30 miles
long and has an average width Of
about 90 miles. Western Moldavia
is entirely mountainous, the crest Of
the Carpathians forming the boundary
between it and Austria-Hungary.
The history of the principally OF
MOldavia is of striking interest. 1t
was founded about the middle of the
fourteenth century by the Wallach
VoivOde Bogden. 1t soon grew to be
large state, embracing the present
Moldavia, BukOwina, and Bessarabia.
Poland and Hungary were both rivals
for favor at the Moldavian court, with
neither able permanently to assert its
Overlordship. Stephen the Great ruled
Moldavia from 1857 to 1904, and de-
fed the Turks, winning a signal vic
tory over them at RakOva in 147o.
Gradually growing stronger, however,
the Moslems succeeded again, under
Stephen the Greats successor, in es-
tablishing their mastery.
Although the Turks never settled
the country, they proceeded to build
fortresses, and thus managed to hold
their ground.
Up to 1921 the country was gov
erned by hospodars appointed by the
sultan from the families of Greek ariS-
tOcratS. In that year native princes
were once more made TO head the gov
eminent, but in 1899, Russia having
gained victory over Turkey, was ac-
corded prOtectorate over MOldavia
under the treaty of Adrianople. This
treaty was terminated by the Crimean
war and the treaty Of Paris. There
after, the powers agreed to set up the
two principalities of Moldavia and
Wallachia, which in their turn decid-
ed, in 1S59-61, that they would unite
under one head and become one coun-
try.

WHAT CHICAGO OWES TO
GEOGRAPHY

Chicago is the subject Of one of a
series of bulletins on American cities.
The following description is based on
Geographic society by William Joseph
Showalter:
Geography made Chicago. Its pO-
sition at the foot of the Great Lakes
resulted in its evolution as the farthest
inland terminus of navigation Of the
inland seas.
MADE what IL is by the processes
of geography, Chicago soon returned
the compliment by helping geography
transform other regions. Its slaughter
ing and packing industry has changed
the center of gravity of the meat-pro-
ducing world. It's agricultural nipple
ment industry has revised the eco
nomic status Of more than half OF
the inhabitants of the earth. Its
sleeping-car industry has entirely re-
vised the geography of travel, bring
ing hundreds Of places separated by
mountain and plain close to each
other.
1T is interesting to pause for a
5ird's-eye inventory Of what the city
is today Fourth In population, Ii
ranks first among the worlds great
urban centers in many ways. No 9th
er place butchers as much meat,
makes as much machinery, builds as
many cars. sells as much grain, or
handles as much lumber.

Chicago Plan The beautiful high

been the pride of Chicago, and the
admiration of all who visit the city.
AS n part of the Lake Shore drive
that links the woods of southern Wis
consin with the plains of northern In

"To secure the full benefits of her
situation, the city is undertaking TO
connect her three great lakeside
parks. Already Lincoln park has

curving stretch of green reaching to

per capita, perhaps, than any other
city of the first order In existence.
There is not keep off the grass

all recreational facilities are free ex-
cept the boats in the lagOons.
There is a swimming hole with

CCNOUERING BUBONIC
PLAGUE IN THE
PHILIPPINES

Discovery last summer of a num-
Der of isolated cases Of the bubOnic
plague in the United States lends in
terest to the following communication
to the National Geographic society,
describing how the disease was con-
Quered by American medical author
tiles in the Philippines.
1.-THE United States drove the bu-
bonic plague out of the Philippines
as completely as it swept the yell
low fever out of Cuba.
'Bubonic plague was discovered at
Manila December 20, 1899, and slowly
but steadily increased up TO Deem
Der, 1901. The deaths in 1900 num-
bered 1919, and in 1901 reached
total of 49, The disease was at it's
worst each year during the hot, dry
months of March, April, and May,
nearly or quite disappearing during
September, October, November, and
December. 1t will be noted that the
number of cases in 1901 exceeded that
in 1900 by 200 while the number OF
deaths was about two and q half
times as great, and the percentage
of mortality among persons attacked
increased from 73.4 in 1900 TO 91.T
in 1901.
"On account of the important part
which house rats are known TO play
in the distribution of bubonic plague,
a systematic campaign was inaugu-
Policemen, sanitary inspectors, and
specially appointed rat-catchers were
furnished with traps and poison, and
both traps and poison were distribut-
ed TO private individuals under proper
restrictions. A bounty was paid for
all rats turned over to the health au-
thorities. and stations were estab-
lished at convenient points through
out the city where they could be re-
ceived. Each rat was tagged with
the street and number of the build
ing or lot from which it came. was
dropped into a strong antiseptic So
luton. and eventually sent to the bio
logical laboratory, where ii was sub
iected to a meteorological examina-
ton for plague.
Buildings in which plague rats
were taken were treated exactly as
were those where the disease at
tackled the human occupants. The
meteorological examination of rats en-
abled the board OF health To follow the
pest into its most secret haunts and
fight il there. and was the most i'm
portant factor in the winning of the
great success which was ultimately
achieved.
with very few exceptions, there
was no recurrence of plague in build
ings which had been disinfected and
renovated. As center after center OF
infection was found and destroyed the
percentage of diseased rats begun TO
decrease, and in January, 1902, when.
judging from the history OF previous
years. plague should have begun 70
spread among human beings. there
was not a single case. In February.
one case occurred. In March. there
were two cases. as against 63 in
March Of the preceding year. and be-
fore April, the disease had complete

In some photoplay fire scenes the

and sometimes small models are
burned. Usually convincing illusion
Is created by placing chemical prepa-

concealed places in the building. Then
by staining the film red the illusion Is
almost perfect.
Movies make IL easy for bricks TO
form themselves into walls. Here Is
how II is done: First brick wall Is

and throws it into a pile in front of
the wall. Each time he does IL Ii Is
