WHY BRITAIN KEEPS A KING
BY DR.. Frank Crane

Surely nobody wishes the young Prince Of
Wales or the newly married Princess Mary, or
their brothers. or parents, or grandparents, or
their sisters and their cousins and their auntS"
anything but the best of luck and all happiness.
Americans who attended the wedding of the
Princess, and even those who mingled with the
street crowds and witnessed the tremendous
the whole affair Sympathetically and have felt
glad that the British people were enjoying them
selves heartily in their own way. I
But down in the bottom of his mind the
American visitor could not help wondering why
in the world these hard-headed BritisherS get
SO excited over Royal Family, and also how
long this sort of thing is going to last.
Of course it cannot keep up forever The
present Royal Family are rather a decent lot
and are StudiouSly behaving themselves and try
ing to live up to what is expected of them,
which indeed must be rather difficult. But in
the nature of the case in the course of several
generations some king is going to come along
who will kick over the traces and make trouble.
When that time comes the British public will
very probably bundle up its Royal Family and
send it packing, although with many expressions
of regret.
The real, MAN, strong and tap root reason
why Great Britain maintains its Monarchy is be-
cause it always has
Doing thing because we always have done it,
ana because our IatnerS, ana 1atnerS 1atnerS ola
it before us, is probably nowhere in the world
so strong a principle as it is in Great Britain,
unless it be in China. This is not entirely a
bad thing. 1t gives State certain stability.
Things stay put You don't live in constant
fear that you will wake up some morning with
your throat cut by some bunch of revolutoniStS
in the name of Liberty, Equality and Frater-
nifty. In England more than anywhere else the
saying of Montague is appreciated, that "The
oldest and best known evil was ever more sup
portable than one that was new and untried"
Another reason why Great Britain clings to
her kings is that its Government is not quit.
like any other Government that ever existed
1t has no birthday. There is no particular time
when it began. Like TopSy, it just grew. It
has no written Constitution. It's law, so called
common law" is mere capitalization of Gus
tom.
| Besides this it has no colonies or dominions
or protectorates which really belong to it, with
the exception of few scattered islands in the
ocean.
The Parliament of Great Britain has no au-
thority over its possessions except as an ad-
visory body. Canada, Australia, South Africa
India or Egypt do not Belong to Great Britain.
| These countries govern themselves and would
resent any Interference with their internal af-
| fairs by London.
! The Monarchy is the totem or symbol that
! holds all this commonwealth of Nations" to-
| gether.

NERVE EXHAUSTION
By H. Addington Bruce

a FEW words today to the unfortunate
~ many who, having decided that they
- are victims of nerve exhaustion, have
long but vainly been doctoring themselves
with various 'tonics.'' I would point out to
them to begin with, that nerve exhaustion
is seldom, if ever, the definite disease they
evidently take it to be.
It is, rather, symptom Of disease, and it
may be a symptom of any one Of an astonish-
ing variety Of diseaE0d conditions. Numer-
Gus, indeed, are the causes which give rise
to the familiar nerve exhaustion symptom
complex of fatigue, irritability, and tension
of mind and body leading to accompanied
by feelings Of restlessness, digestive troubles,
and troubles of sleep.
Sometimes nerve exhaustion of an extreme
sort develops as a consequence of bad work
ing habits. And by this do not primarily
refer to the habit Of overworking.
That is not often true cause of nerve ex-
haustion. Comparatively few people really
overwork. But multitudes work too hur-
riedly for their good multitudes adopt work
ing methods that put needless and constant
strain upon them, multitudes work in work.
ing places so unhygienic as to poison and
weaken their systems. All these things can,
and frequently do, cause nerve exhaustion.
And when nerve exhaustion is thus caused,
is it reasonable to expect that tonics will
cure it. even though consumed by the gall
Ion? Does not common sense suggest that
the necessary thing is to change the condi-
tions under which one works, so far as it
is possible to change them? 2
Nerve exhaustion again, may be a product
Of nothing more than uncurbed emotionality,
expressing itself in chronic worry or envy or
hate. Worry, envy, and hate have, literally,
poisonous effect on the organism, and are in
deed capable of producing in time a severe
exhaustion of the nerves.
In such cases can tonics be of any real
benefit, so long as the poisons of worry or
envy or hate are permitted to accumulate?
Would it not be wiser to substitute for the
tonics self-education in the matter of emo
tional control?
And, further, it is important to know that
may be indicative of some more or less Sc
rious state Of organic ill-health.
Assessed teeth have been known to cause
nerve exhaustion. So have infected tonsils,
and infections localized in other parts Of the
body. Sometimes nerve exhaustion is
early sign of tuberculosis, sometimes a sign
Of other diseases as dangerous as tubercu-
losis y
Happily, it is not nearly so often indicative
Of grave disorders as of readily remediab1e
ailments due to faulty habits of thinking
and living. Since, however, it is of such va
ried origin, and since some of it's causes are
such that delay in eradicating them may have
deplorable consequences, self-diagnosis and
sef-treatment with tonics can never be rec
commended as the proper course to take.
The one wise course, in fact, is to seek
competent medical aid. And it is the course
I would urge on all afflicted with the sundry
discomforts and disabilities popularity sum-
married. under the names of nerve exhaus-
ton.

ways" They have cherished enthusiasms.
They have acquired tastes and habits and
anyone interferes with these at their peril.
Yet as soon as a couple are married which
ever one is the more intOlerant and tyranni-
cal by nature, begins to try to break the
other one in, and to deprive the other of all
of his or her little personal liberties. Some
times the oppressed one is weak enough to
give in. Sometimes he or she fights back, but
in either case, the beans are spilled.
For there is no record of any human being
ever loving his or her jailer, or being happy
in captivity. Greater than the love, of man
for woman, or woman for man, is the love
for personal liberty, and so we inevitably
come to hate those who deprive us of it, no
matter in what relationship they stand to
u.s..
We all know that for ourselves. We know
that the thing that we desire most in the
world, the one thing that makes most for
our happiness, is just the right to have our
own way in little things, and yet we are
cruel enough, and selfish enough, to be will
ing to~rob those about us of this inestimable
blessing.
Strange isn't it, and stranger still that we
do not realize that our miserable, egotistic
tyranny, is driving those from us whom we
most desire to keep closest to us
And strangest of all is that this tyranny
is about nothing. There are men who insist
on picking out their wives, clothes. Other
men who will not let their wives make a
single move without asking their august per-
mission. Other men who require their wives
to turn in an itemized account of every cent
they have spent If these men think that their
wives are happy, or that they are loved
they make the mistake of their lives.
And there are women who nag their hus-
bands for forty or fifty years about smok-
ing. Women who force their husbands to
give up all of their pet hobbies. Women who
never let their husbands eat or drink any
thing they like without telling them how
bad it is for their stomachs. Women who
pick out their husbands neckties, and tell
them how to have their hair cut. If these
women suppose that they are still enshrined
in their husbands hearts, they have another
guess coming to Them
It is a common observation that six
months widow or widower generally looks
six years younger than she or he did before
losing the partner of his or her bosom. 1t is
because the widowed one has recovered his
or her personal liberty, and for the first
time in years is enjoying the privilege of
doing as he or she chooses.
The moral of all of which is that if you
would be happy, though married, don't try
to boss your life partner. Every man and
woman has certain inalienable rights that
even a husband or wife should respect.

Diesel and the Jungle Quarts

DEOPLE love to talk about how great
inventions are stumbled on" But
that carries a wrong idea. It is what
the stumbler does after stumbling that
counts. Almost any man is likely to stumble
on something once in his life.
In the shades of the Malay jungles an ex-
plorer named Carveth Wells found a dwarf
with a remarkable invention.
The dwarf, small coffee-colored chap
nearly as low in the human scale as the dog
eating Igorot Of LuZon before the white man
took an interest in him, had fire-making
tool. 1t was not the conventional friction
device, familiar to every Boy Scout. 1t was
singularly ingenious implement.
The dwarf had made cylinder of bone,
with one end closed In this cylinder work.
ed plunger, also of bone, with a leather
packing to make it approximately alright.
To kindle blaze, the dwarf placed bit
Of dry tinder-dried vegetable powder-fibre
on the end Of the plunger, inserted it in
the open end of the cylinder, and struck it
single sharp blow downward. When he
pulled the finder out it was on fire.
The process, a reversal of the vacuum,
caused combustion by the sudden compress
sion of air.
Now, that jungle Ndwarf's invention made
use or exactly the same principle as the
famous Diesel engine, which generates heat
by compression
The difference in the net result was in
Rudolf Diesel's brain.
The jungle dwarfs Of Malaysia very like
ly have had this compression fire-maker for
some thousands of years. Yet it never &C.
Cured to them to apply the principle to
anything except making fire.
Diesel, German who was born in Paris,
oddly enough, discovered this same pripci-
pie in 1898. Probably he stumbled on it,
But he did not content himself with MAX
ing an ingenious cigar-lighter. He toiled and
studied three years to no apparent end, and
in the fourth year he demonstrated success
fully his INSTRUMENTATION engine.
One great difference between Rudolf
Diesels brain and> that Of the Malay jungle
dwarf was the faculty of Imagination, the
greatest and most useful brain faculty de-
veloped by civilization.
1t is fine thing to exercise the magma
ton. Studying the Einstein theory may but
ter no parsnips,. but it is likely to strength
en- faculty that may grasp and use the
next idea you stumble over.

all it was natives of the Siberian coast who
deserted and reported the misty outline Of
the now mooted land.
Although the diplomatists have not yet
seized upon the tangle, those ever-versatile
savants of the press who hang back from
nothing in the heavens above or the waters
under earth, much less on the mere surface
of the globe, are into the thick of the con-
troversy. Thus the Toronto Star declares:
cts our island. 1t may not be worth much
to us, but it is worth more to us than to
anybody else. It's ours, and we have it nail
ed down. If anybody thinks it ought to be
un-nailed, Ottowa will discuss that with them
so long as typewriters continue to be manu-
featured and until the last spruce tree of
our illimitable forests has yielded up it's last
sheet of paper!" This, while not in King
Cambyses vein, is belligerent enough to
draw from the San Antonio Light the spir-
tied rejoinder: LAS for climate and soil
Wrangell Island is not much, but we may
need it in case the icemen in the United
States get too gay The ice may be bit
too salt for domestic use, but it will be
just the thing for soda fountains. So, we
think we will keep the island"
Far be it from us to fan flames of inter-
national dispute. In justice to American pos
terlty, however, we are constrained to ask,
who knows but that the time may come when
this now cherries chunk of Polar rock will
blossom like dales of Georgia? Changes as
wondrous the earth has seen, if scientists say
sooth: and within another five or fifty mil
lion years, such shifts may mark our planets
axis or such mutations the solar system, that
orange groves will flourish where now only
meagerest moss survives, while fields now
greening through Aprils silvery showers
will be manacled in ice and roamed by snow
white bears. Prudence, then, would appear
to require that reserve due right to
Wrangell Isle in event of such a transfornfA-
tion by the year, say, 1567341922 A. D.

Where Death Turks
THOSE are tragically compelling figures
to which President Winburn, of the

to which President Winburn, of the
Central Of Georgia Railway, directs
attention, showing that within the four
years ended December 81 last twelve thou
sand seven hundred and fifty persons were
injured in automobile accidents at grade
crossings, while four thousand three hun
dred and fifty were killed.
That such casualties for the most part
are chargeable, if not to recklessness, at
least to incaution on the part of motorists
is not to be gainsaid. Exceptions there are
but exceedingly few. If only the incorrigibIe
speed fend were involved the matter would
be of slight concern. But hundreds of driv-
ers whose lives are really worth preserving
and who are not hare-brained gamblers with
fate, will take hazards as dangerful, as need
less. On these and on the luckless ones in
their care falls the grimmest weight of death
and injury-on these good folk who will
not stop, look and listen:
Significantly enough, moreover, it is at the
crossings considered least perilous that the
largest number of accidents occur. This fact
bears striking witness to the need for I'M
relaxed vigilance. At points of obvious dam
ger most persons will be wary and thereby
avert misfortune. But when seeming safety
puts vigilance off its guard, then are dread
full things most likely to befall. There never
has been and never will be grade crossing
safe for a driver whose attention is wander
ing. Not to be heedful, not to be unfailngly
careful at these crossings, though one en-
counter them thousand times day, is to
invite disaster and deaCn.

The Nation Studies the Pecan

L Is Interesting u lSdFu LudC approximate
| ly half of the twenty-five thousand dol
lars which the agricultural appropriation
bill allots to the bureau of plant industry for
the study of nut culture will be used in ex-
Fermentation with pecans, and that a large
part of the research work will be conducted
in Georgia. Thanks to the insistence of SEN
ator Harris the sum first allowed for this
useful enterprise was substantially increased
as were also the amounts recommended fo7
investigation and development of processes
looking to the manufacture of sweet syrups
from new agricultural sources. Through such
inquiries, at once practical and scientific, mil
lions Of dollars may be added to potential
farm values and fresh empires of prosperity
unfolded.
Particularly welcome will be the expert
ments with the pecan. Within little more
than a decade Georgia's production of this
delectable and nutritious nut has increased
from some three hundred and sixty thousand
pounds to upwards of three million; and
when it is reflected that the better grades
bring from forty cents to a dollar a pound,
the Importance of this growth is ap-
parent. In Georgia, authorities say, is oc-
ours the ideal combination of soil and climate
for pecan culture SO that this industry is GER
tain to become prime factor in the common
wealth's prosperity. Now that the subject is
to receive especial attention from the federal
department of agriculture, developments may
be expect deto move with quickened pace.

4 Merru Wranq7e
A MERRY war of words has broken out

A MERRY war of words has broken out
n over the aptly named Island of Wran-
CELL. To whom does that bleak strip
Of granite and ice thrusting itself from the
Arctic ocean, some four hundred miles north
west of Boring strait, belong? To Russia, the
casual observer might reply, seeing that the
island and the country of the Muscovites
are, SO to say, horses of the same color-on
the map. But now comes Canada asserting
right of domain on the ground that her great
explorer, Stefansson, at the head of an ex-
petition sent out by the Dominion Govern
ment, has verify trod the shores of Wran-
CELL and so established title. To this claim,
however, some in the United States bought
lily demur. Was it not the American explor-
er, Long, they ask, who first sighted the is
land, back in the eighteen sixties, and who
generously named it in honor of the famous
Russian traveller, scientist and statesman,
Baron Ferdinand Wrangell? Indeed, did not
another American, Hooper, explore it in the
early eighties and re-christen it New Co
lumbar" Still another claim may be set up
by Russia, upon the tradition that first of
