Boy Emperor May Go
Back To China's Throne
(By Associated Press)

Peking, July 1.-The Chinese
newspapers are freely and openly
discussing prospects of a far
reaching change in Chinese af-
fairs which they have declared is
possible and even probable this
summer.
One of the dominant figures to
whom all experienced observers
look for an initial movement in
bringing about the predicted
change in China is General Chang
Tsi-Lin, military governor of
Manchuria, whose influence in
the capital is now paramount.
The prevailing belief is that
General Chang is favorable to
the restoration to the Chinse
throne of the boy Emperor who
has long been a prisoner in the
Forbidden City.

BELLS ON SHEEP SAID
TO KEEP DOGS AWAY

Farmers have often desired 4
simple method Of protecting their
sheep from vicious dogs. Here
it is in a letter to the New York
Herald
The method proposed to Mrs.
August Belmont to protect her
sheep from dogs, namely by
hanging bells from their nccks
would have worked satisfactorily
something which | can verify
from personal experience for the
last sixty years. 1t seems strange
to me at this late date that this
simple idea should not be gener-
ally known wherever sheep are
kept.
Ny father owned the farm
near Bound Brook, New Jersey.
On this farm we kept regularly
from $50 to zoo breeding ewes.
During all these many years we
never had sheep bitten by a
dog. This was entirely due to
bells on from one-thlrd to one
half of the number of sheep in
the flock. The bells used to be
of good size and the best pattern
for this purpose is the open clap
per cowbell. When dog gets
into a bunch Of sheep wearing
these bells the din is SO great he
thinks Old Harry is after him and
he quits at once.
Of late laws have been advo-
Gated to kill all dogs found away
from their, homes in order to pro-
tect the sheep. but such laws are
entirely unnecessary if the simple
means described here are adopted

Viper Warfare Balks Imagination

ical warfare work is going on at the Edge
wood Arsenal, Maryland, on large tract
next to the Aberdeen proving grounds.
The chemicals are tested there, the demoli-
tion bombs, the incendiary bombs and the
Regeneration or troop bombs. They are
made at various stations.
There always has been much question
about the submarine, not only of its value
as weapon, but the fairness in its use.
The ruthless campaign of the Germans
when they sent to the bottom of the sea
passenger vessels carrying women and
children, as in the case of the Lusitania,
set the world aghast.
Everywhere the people condemned this
weapon as one that strikes from under
cover, as one that fears to come into the
open to fight. 1t Is an invitation at all
times, as in the case of Germany, to sink
passenger and other merchant vessels
without the customary and well established
right of visit and search.
The very character of the submarine fur
ther makes 1t impossible to take off the
passengers and crew of such ship before
1t Is sunk. Often these persons, II the
commander of the submarine is even that
fair, are set adrift on the high seas in open
boats, to be picked up by the next passing
ship or to die. The horrors of this charac-
ter of warfare are fresh in the public mind.
Four years ago the newspapers were full
0f stories of submarines; those who closely
follow public opinion cannot feel now that
this feeling has abated.
Naval experts are at work now on tor
pedo which will direct itself. Torpedoes
already are self stablizing and self pro-
PEELED. But they travel in the direction in
which they are aimed What the experts
are working on now is a torpedo which
when fired will be attracted by the iron and
steel work on a ship so that the torpedo
will be drawn to it as II 1t we're a magnet
If this development is perfected IL will
make submarines all the more deadly.

LEG Hair on the Tokaido" that is, "Shank's
Mare on the Great Eastern Sea Road")
This book, like a moving picture, reproduced
things surprisingly beautiful horribly ugly,
amazingly varied and quantity enacted on
that great thoroughfare which stretched
from Kioto to Yedo, now Toxic.
This was the main highway of the empire
and was very much like a continuous Strand
or Broadway for its hundreds of miles.
When feudalism fell and the railways grid
iron was laid on fair Japan the glory of the
great highway became a memory. For half
a century it was like a deserted country
road until the automobile restored some of
its former Importance. In the late sixties
1t was still full of life, color and movement.
We must remember that until 1870 Japan
was like chess board. There were nearly
three hundred feudal fiefs and castle lords
in the empire. The majority of these
damios were compelled to leave their wives
and children in Yedo as hostages for their
good behavior when they went to spend six
months of the year in their won dominion.
The coming and going of these feudal
lords up and down the great road, each one
striving to outdo the other in show and
often in sham, with their long trains of re-
tainers banners and even decorated baggage
covers, made this highway continually full
of color and hustle.
Speaking of sham, Takahashi and / often
