WON FAME AS PROPHECIES
Legends Concerning "Mcther Shipton"
Tell Us Little OF fieal Life OF
Remarkable Woman.

In the four centuries and more
since Mother SYMPTOMS birth, her pre-
dictions have from time TO time been
recalled, especially as some new in
ventiOn or historical development has
seemed to bear out her prophecies.
According to the Encyclopedia Britain
MICA, Mother ShiptOn was born near
Yorkshire q good many years before
Columbus discovered America, though
the exact date is in doubt. 1fe leg
end concerning her states that she
was begotten, like the Wizard Merlin
Of King Arthur's Round Table, of a
union Of a phantom of Apollo OF
some other aerial demon in that guise,
and a beautiful young orphan glrl or
Yorkshire named Agatha Soulful. The
baby was christened Ursula Soulful
by the abbot of Beverly. From early
childhood the prophecies displayed
her weird powers, which developed III
scope as she grew older. She mar
ried a carpenter named Shipton, aC-
cording to the legend. and died at
Tic USt VI cNfllHNiiN' yNN'S'
trary to the custom of those times,
Mother Shipton, despite her suspect
ed connection with the devil and the
powers Of darkness, escaped hanging
as a witch, due largely TO the fact
that she had never been known TO
harm anyone. Her EVIL eye was
never turned toward any person, but
exerted It's baleful power IN piercing
the veil of the future.

A Perpetual Trust Fund.

No more appealing suggestions
have been made with regard to the
Allied debt than are to be found in
the letter of Judge Loyett, published
in today's Times. First of all, he
calls attention to the circumstances
under which the loans We're made
circumstances which make it un-
chivalrous as well rs inhumane to
demand the Mound of flesh nominal
ed in the bond. Nevertheless, he
does not recommend unqualified re-
mission of the debt. He urges that
this debt be made perpetual trust
fund, tobe administered for the d.
rect benefit of the allied peoples,
free from any political purpose or
other exploitation. The heart OF
his proposal is that through binding
treaties the interest on the fund
shall be applied: 9 to the payment
of pensions to surviving widows
minor children, and dependent par
ents; CD to the establishment and
maintenance of hospitals, and go to
the care and support of orphans. o.
the aged and infirm, or to other edu-
cational or benevolent purposes.
It has been already suggested
from another source that there
should be conditional cancellation OF
the debt in such amounts as may be
devoted by the several nations to the
education of children. But the pro
posal of Judge Lovett gives a broad
err basis and one that. has a deeper
foundation in humane. feeling. More
over, this proposal comes from one
whose financial advice is of high
value. His contention is that il is
good business" not to demand the
full payment with interest of that
which We loaned, but spent largely
at home. and after we entered the
war The fundamental principle on
which it should rest is that the
world as whole owes something to
the children who have no fair chance
in it because of what those upon
when they are naturally dependent
have sacrificed for the good of the
world as whole.

The papers aref ull of talf of the
need for better farm credits. Several
bills have been introduced in congress
with 8 view TO providing such cred

some NIT so good. oSOme of them

lid and done there Is one thing
which the individual farmer should
have in mind onstantly-namely
that tie extension of credit means
The mourning Of debt If man bor-
rows money, he must repay.
Sometimes the ability to borrow
mney easily is not good for the bor-
rover i year ago if mney could
have been borrowed easily many
wheat farmers would have borrowed
and would have held their wheat for
So per bushel Some of the leaders
OF farm organizations urged their
members TO hold both wheat and
corn. They said prices would go
much higher Members who follow
ed their advise lost heavily Men
who borrowed money paid a stiff
interest and saw the prices of the
grains they we're holding go down
steadily Many OF these men are
broke today.
We favor a system of credits
which will give farmers the credit
they need TO finance their farming
and stock feeding operations. But
We advise our individual readers not

Mice Made Robbery Possible.

Church mice" VIGOROUSLY poverty
stricken, occasionally are able to
throw riches in the way Of others. A
thief entered st. Ignatius church, Bal
tmore, Nd, the other night and stole
valuable Jewels from n safe in the
rear of the altar Inquiry at the rec
tory developed that to a little band
Of playful Church. MICE" now dead
and forgotten by their brethren, may
be traced the existence of circum-
stances which made It possible for the
thief to strip the sacred vessels with
out detection. Many years ago
burglar alarm system was installed
In st. Ignatlus In anticipation of Just
such visitation as the recent one.
One night some mice established
contact with n concealed element of
the alarm system and brought the
priests and the police TO the scene.
The burglar alarm was disconnected
to prevent a repetition of the false
alarm. The view was taken by the
priests that there was in existence
scarcely thief degraded enough To
'amrcr with tie consecrated vessels.
