NOT MODELS OF c0NSTANcy
Observer Has Found That House
Wrens Occasionally Figure In
Birds divorce Court"

Little birds in their nests agree
So likewise do their parents, presum-
ably. But there has been much specu-
lation as to whether pairs of birds,
once married, do or do not perpetuate
the welded relation from year to year.
How about the house-wren? 1t Is a
gentle and virtuous bird, almost semi
domestlcated, as one might say, mas
much as it customarily builds its nest
In or about human habitations. People
who have watched the habits of house
wrens have often been heard to say
that they were sure the same pairs re-
turned to the same nesting places sea-
son after season. They were pro-
claimed as models of marital con
stancy.
However, Mr.. S. Prentiss Baldwin OF
Cleveland, who for many years has
made the trapping and banding Of
birds his special hobby (afterward re-
leasing them to be subsequently -e
trapped perhaps and fdentifed), has
found that housewares are no more re
liable in their cOnjugal relations thar
folks. In some instances these rell
tions are perpetuated from season II
season; but often 1t happens that
house-wren, male or female, indulge'
in a violent filtration, even making
bluff at starting housekeeping, ant
then making final choice Of another
mate. Divorces occur. A gentleman

BRINGS BACK ACTION OF BRAIN
Remarkable Power Of Smelling Salts

"JoAN' VICTIM OF INTRIGUE
French Bishop Said to Have Been the
Tool in the Hands Of the
Duke of Bedford.

Pierre Cauchon, bishop of BeauNtais,
who was ambitious to become arch
bishop of Rouen, framed" Joan OF
Arc and caused her to be burned at
the stake, according to Henry W..
Harris, Jr., writing in the Boston
Globe.
The untutored maid who had
spurred the French on to victory, just
as Englands hordes appeared to have
overrun the country, was captured
by the duke of Burgundy, a rebel
against the king of France, and he
sold her to the duke of Bedford, regent
for Henry vi, the boy king of Eng
land, for $4,000.
Bedford sought to discredit Joan OF
Arc to her people, hoping in this way
to upset the coronation of King
Charles VII of France, and gain the
throne for the British king. Bishop
Cauchon, who was seeking Britain's
aid at Rome, was chosen as the tool.
He it was who formed the court which
tried the maid and convicted her OF
heresy. She was ordered to be burned
but the sentence was committed To
life Imprisonment on condition that
she quit wearing pages costume
wear women's garb instead, and sign
a paper, or rather put a cross to 1t
as she couldn't read or write. she
did so. The paper was a "confes'
sion" of all the framed-up charges
Later she was tricked into breakAg
her VOW and was practically forced
to wear the pages clothes again
Then she was discovered" in this
garb, accused of breaking her vow anc
ordered burned at the stake.

CHANGES IN MAPS OF WORLD
Almost impossible Of Belief Has Been
the Increase in Knowledge In tho
Christian Era.

Mapmakers are having busy time
in these days of everchanging bound
aries. Europe has regrcuped itself,
and the old map of our schooldays is
wrong from top to bottom.
But what tremendous changes have
taken place in the Christian era,
comparatively short time in the his
tory of the world. observes a writer
in London Answers. The Romans
map of the world was the Middle sea
the Mediterranean-and the lands
washed by its waves. To sail out Of
the Straits Of Gibraltar-the Pillars
of Hercules-was as great an adven-
ture as being shot in rocket to Mars
would be today!
For another thousand years, after
the decline of Rome, very little prog
ress was made. India was a sort of
fairyland, China-or Cathay-might
have been in the moon, Russia and ST.
IBERIA were wholly out of bounds.
America was not dreamed Of, Aus
tralia had never been heard of, no Eu-
rOpean ship had ever sailed on the
Pacific ocean.
Then, quite suddenly, came the age
of exploration. The Spanish and Port
uguese navigators, followed by the
great English Adventures, doubled
the worlds land area for the map
makers. But even then the maps were
fearful and wonderful. America was
a piece of all guesswork. The greater

NEW ALPS TUNNEL
WILL OPEN SOON
BY HENRY WOOD

ROME, Feb. 25.-Announeement
has Just been made that, barring acci-
dent, the second tunnel under the
simplon pass. The Alps. and which
runs parallel TO the present one VIII
be opened for traffic during the com
ing summer.
Its operation is expected to stimu-
late an Increase immensely both pas
senger and merchandise transportation
between the channel ports and the
Mediterranean and Adriatic.
Work on the second Simplon tunnel
has been In progress since 1912. De-
spite the war a certain amount Of work
was at all times kept up.
In building the present tunnel, the
engineers were able to utilize the gal
lery which had been built when the
first tunnel was constructed for the
purpose Of ventilating the latter In
fact, the new tunnel Is little more than
en- enlargement and adaptation of this
gallery, although the engineering prob
lens involved were fully as great as
those Of the original tunnel construc-
tcn.
The first tunnel was pierced at
cost Of over SIS. 100000, whilst the
second one will cost only about 81
600, 900.
The two tunnels now have total OF
about twelve and . half miles Of when
five and a half are on Swiss territoi5,
and the remainder on Italian soil.

HARDING FAV0RS
ACTIVE WORK TO
SAVE u. S. FORESTS

WASHINGTON. Feb. 25.--CU. PD
Greater strides toward "a national
/ forest policy were made In 1920 than
ever before, Charles Lathrop Pack,
president Of the American Forestry
Association, told the members at the
Spening Of the annual meeting Of the
organization AT the Willard Hotel
Pack called attention TO the fact that
President elect Harding IS heartily in
favor Of forest legislation and quoted
this message from the incoming presi-
dent:
ut is perfectly practicable and fea-
sible 10 provide for a new growth Of
timber and an imperative duty to inn
prove our forest protection. can
think Of no forward look IN relation
to the good fortunes Of America which
does not contemplate forest policy
which will assure us the essential In
the lumber line for all our construc-
tive activities"
The Sneel forest bill has been intro
duced in congress. Pack pointed out
and behind this measure was The unit
ed approval, he said, of n9t only the
American Forestry Association but
every business interested, such as the
American Newspaper Publishers Asso-
citation and hundreds Of wood using
Industries and the United states For
es. Service.
with the coming of a new con-
gress said Pack, I'VE are at the point
where something constructive can be
done in the perpetuatlon and preser-
vaton of the forests, one Of the ma
lions greatest natural resources. Con-
servation has been quite a bugaboo in
times past. but the call Of war upon
our resources has awakened the ma
tion to the fact that the American For
estry Association has not been calling
wolf in the wilderness just for the
fun Of it, The fact of the matter is
If we do not get something done there
will be nothing but the wilderness in
which to call wolf and then 1t will be
too late.
Waste must be stopped. Our for
ests are being used or destroyed by
fire four times faster than we are re-
producing them. We must put the
idle land to work We must have for
est crops coming long every year just
as we have corn and wheat crops.
The great encouraging note comes
from the man who will take next week
the highest office in the gift of the
American people He is newspaper
publisher and knows all about one big
phase of the high cost of forest pro-
ducts-the pulpwood that goes into the
making of news print. You can be as
aured, from his message ] have just
read you that he is with us on this
/ great question and on the fact that he
! is with us the country is to be congrat-
