Says hearts Really Break.

Poets and romance writers for ages have been on firm ground when they have pictured broken-hearted swains and maidens.
 According to Dr. Strickland Goodali, a noted heart specialist, 1t IS u physi- ologIcal fact that hearts do break. But he says, joy and not woe or hard work Is more frequently the cause or broken heart. In his long experience he has found that emotion rather than hard work has been responsible for broken hearts.
 Don't get Into temper, says Dr. GOodall, because 1t increases the hearts work by seventy-two foot pounds Running upstairs is foolish, because the increase Is 152 foot pounds, If man spends one day In bed weekly he saves his heart 99S.4 foot pounds"

MANY VARIETIES OF SHARK
Some Sea Monsters More to Be Feared Than Others, but All Ferocious
 to Degree.

There are many families and varle- ties of the shark. Some of these fam ilies are smaller, more COwardly ana less successful as killers than other families, says the Kansas City Star. They are not especially fierce toward things that are bigger and stronger than they. The dusky sharks and the sand sharks are not believed to be man killers, but they are man eaters when the opportunity arrives.
 The largest and ferCest shark Is the great white shark. Ills disposition Is to kill and eat, and he Is so large and strong and self-cOntident that he will attack anything that swims, and man Is little more than A minnow or a her ring to him. The great white shark nhablts the trOpic and subtropic seas. The normal length of the teeth Is one inch and they are fiat, triangular and saw edge Many of these sharks have been killed that were 30 feet long.

mlcrobe Factory.

London, England, boasts a microbe factory. Biologists In general. and bac- terlologists in particular, are able to serve humanitarian interests only by close study of authentic strains of rec ognlzed bacteria, carefully cultured In their various species and classes. Yet II Is only quite recently that the needs of medical workers in this respect have been fully met For their sup ply1of disease microbes for experiment. tai purposes. British scientists were very largely dependent upon the courtesy of colleagues in other coun- tries. Before the war. for instance, a polite note to Nj Binot of the Pas teur institute in Paris was quite the recognized procedure adopted by a medlco who wished ts start or add to microbe menagerie. Charaeteristically an effort to commerelalize this an-im- portant traffic was made by krai al Prague, but that source of supply was never satisfactory.

Case Presented to the Great Sheeriuck Bones Hardly Worthy of His
 Wonderful Brain.

It was the office of the famous de- tective. Mir Sheerluck Bones.
 The visitor. a man of rather small height but liberal width. sat down.
 Married !" snapped Bones.
 How do you know I'm marriedr' gasped the visitor.
 By the samples of silk to be matched In your yest-pocket. and your hunted, haunted, expression" replied Sheerluck.
 The man gasped.
 Tt is marvellous how you know thingsl" exclaimed the man. But il Is about my wife l came to see you. She acts so Queerly lately. She talks to herself all the time, stands before her mirror and talks to herself. It's awful And she does the most ter rIble things. She'll put cake of soap In the soup and scrub the pans with the soup bone, talking to her sef all the time"
 And the poor man wiped his brow neryousIy.
 How long has this state of affairs been going ou?" asked the great de- tective.
 "Oh, for about a week now. And. Mr. Bones cant stand Il any longer. It's driving me crazy. I'm afraid she'll sell the baby for a bundle of rags, or something"
 "H'm! Er, isn't 1t just possible that your wife is merely practicing and rehearslng her speech for the next meeting of the National Women's Rulers of Home league? see its meeting takes place tomorrow night.
 By love! You're right. She Is third assistant chairman of that lcnguc. forgot lt"
 With a relieved cry, the little man rushed home, and even forgot, in his slud relief. to pay the great detec- lives fce.-London Answers.

The kaiser showed them a map which had been drawn by General Hoffman" continues Nowak But sud. denly there was d scene For a few minutes General Ludendorff entirely lost his composure his military bear ing and tone. He grumbled and shrieked at the kaiser. He seemed to have lost all control of his nerves The kaiser could not receive any gen eral over Ludendorffs head The kaiser's boundary could not be final It must be reconsidered.
 General Field Marshal von Hinden. burg also grumbIed We must study the matter we'll"
 The kaiser gave in. He said: Then 1 await new explanation-" Nowak writes: The kaiser proposed to Lu. dendorff that he himself should go to BrestLitovsk to study the tangled problem on the spot. But the general deemed it best to refuse gruffly. The crown council, which had been sitting through the drama of the supreme war lords in painful silence. separated"
 Nowak relates the epilogue of this scene: General Ludendorff demanded General Hoffmanns resignation be. cause Hoffman, without first secur, ing Ludendorff's permission had at the order of the kaiser. held disser. tation on Poland for his benefit Gen. eral Ludendorff wished General Hoff. mann to be given the command of a | division at the front.

The secretary of foreign affairs, Dr. von Kuehmann. was also opposed to the annexation, under no circumstances did he wish any more Poles for Germany. and suggested join ing the Russian Poles to Austria as a solution which would placate the chauvinists.
 To check Ludendorffs annexation program General Hoffman and von Kuehlmann took the matter up with the kaiser and quickly persuaded Will helm H., that an increase of Polish population would be a danger to the internal security of Germany. The kaiser with his two authorities on Russia. faced vOn Hindenburg and Lu- dendorff at the crown council meet. ing in the Bellevue palace the evening Of January 2. 1918, when the terms of the coming Brest-Lituvsk treaty were to be discussed.

DAUGHERTY TELLS HOW
 POLITICS GOT HIM

Attorney General Harry N. Daugh- erty has been intensely interested the last day or two In reading the news from Berlin that a herr medical councillor, Dr. Magnus Hirschfield. had announced the discovery of a new theory in medicine.
 Talk and get we'll" said the learned doctor. Air your troubles and relieve your mind and soul and body of all their worries and all their grief"
 This item had a particular appeal to the attorney ge..eral.
 The only thing is." he opined, however, that the doctor who or oered me to talk got me in a pack Of trouble-years and years of 1t. It all happened while I was at college. had continual troubles with mr throat. My vocal chords became af- lected, and the doctor told me one day that l must exercise them more. He said Just plain conversation wouldn't do. l must make speeches.
 Well, l started making 'em all right and the fun began. When A lellow gets to making public speeches, he Is gone. He is headed in but one direction. Politics will get hln Just as sure as gun Is iron.

Police SoIUe Puzzle of Fighting q Duel
 With q Single Sabre

Berlin. December 24.-Dlffi- cuIty of fighting . duel with one snbcr was almost solved by two young men nj GOrIotz. The younger, n working man of IS, had challenged his friend. teIegrapher of 23, to duel be- cnuse he hnd dared to fIirt with his sweetheart and even to call her "dar1inG." The lads father heard of the plan and warned the police, who ordered the two rivals under open arrest to bring their deadly weapons to the po- lice station. They arrived with a rusty and nntidiluvian saber of curved form which appeared to be of Turkish origin nnd said that na they possessed only one weap- on they had arranged they should take 1t in turn to hack at one another.
 The police sOlemnly took pos session of the weapon md the dueIists decided that honor was satfsfied.
