XIII Turkey Buzzaro.

The green fly and the turkey buzz
card are two of mankind's worst
enemies, because they help spread In
fantile paralysis germs and other
malignant forms of disease. The buzz
gard was In large measure response
Bile for the spread of rinderpest In
South Africa, cholera In India and
the epidemic that killed off the water
buffalo In the Philippines. The green
fly and the turkey buzzard should
be killed on sight.-Thrift Magazine.

Though there IS some uncertainty
as to the origin of meteoric stones or
meteorites, says the Scientific Amer
lean, they probably are the minute
fragments of the primitive solar neb-

Mr.. Wilson at the PLAY.

When former President Wilson attends the
theatre, which he does once a week, he goes to
a vaudeville show on Saturday night. He ex-
plains that if vaudeville act is dull it is over
in few minutes. Whereas if you happen on a
dull play you have to sit through three acts.
Passing by the profundity of this remark, it
adds little to the current knowledge of the
Wilson psychology, betraying a sort Of rest
lessness or nervousness. Still it is to be doubt
ed if that covers the whole case, since many
people who nervous restless can sit
through even dull three act play without bit
ing pieces out of the furniture. The truth i:
that Mr.. Wilson always has preferred light
stuff on the stage His preference for vaude-
vile is new. He used to like musical comedies
John Kernel, the comedian, used to tell a
story about negro girl who did not share Mr..
Wilson's TASTE but when Mistah Shakespeare
brings de plays to town nah parents got to
chain me to de flo" Subsequently a popular
song called When Mr.. Shakespeare Comes to
Town" was made out of this Kernel jest Mr.
Wilson never had any use for Shakespeare ex-
cept in the seclusfon of his library In the old
days, however, when musical comedy came
to town with Lulu Glazer or even Anna Held
in it, Mr.. Tumulty had to chain Mr.. Wilson to
the floor. Evidently, since his illness, even
musical comedy has grown too combining for
Mr. Wilson. The booking agencies insist OF
their time schedules for acts, except in rare
cases. especially one-act plays There he finds

Lady Astor's Citizenship.

Lady Nancy Astor having travelled over a
considerable part of America telling the wo-
what they ought to do, one of her hearers
has written her a letter asking her whether
she is an English woman American. 1t
is preposterous for Lady Astor to come to
this country and talk about "us Americans"
What would we have to say if German, for in
stance, had come to this country. taken out
naturalization papers, secured election to con-
gress, and then went back to Germany and
made speeches, talking TO his former country
men as though he were still one of them? He
would never secure reelection in any district
in the United States. Whatever may be her
pretense, Lady Aston is not an American in
thought or deed, whatever she may be in words
She was born an Americap-for that she is to
be neither praised or blamed, for it not
matter of her choosing She became a British
subject of her own free will. No one can raise
any question as to her right to do that
The United States has always recognized the
right of foreigners to renounce citizenship in
the land of their birth and to acquire citizenship
here. We have never recognized the right or
the propriety of any one trying to claim citi-
zenship in or loyalty to more than one nation.
1t is a physical, psychological, moral impos-
sibility. Lady Aston chose to renounce her
American citizenship, and however much we
may deplore her judgment, we must assume that
her act in accordance with her desire.
Certainly would not wish to hold here
person who desired to transfer allegiance to
another land, But since Lady Aston has seen
fit to pose some sort Of American and has
assumed superior intelligence and grasp of
national problems which justifies her own
mind in trying to instruct American women in
their political duties, it is well that at least
one woman voter in America has asked her
whether she is an English woman or an Ameri-
can.

Certainly as far back as 30 years ago it

possibly be true because it involved eontradic-

still meet some of the conditions imposed on it.
At the same time for other purposes the ether
had to be conceived as elastic Otherwise there
could never be waves of it. Light was con-
ceived TO be produced by undulations in the
ether. But obviously there are holes in it or
it can double back on itself. SO ether has to be
porus and not porus at the same time Obvious
ly that was impossible, and such a substance
couldn't exist. But scientists found the theory
useful in explaining certain phenomena, so
they used it, and weren't even made unhappy by
the contradictions

what distinguishes a calf from an

1t is a state of mind. Any one who
