John Ellis, England's hangman,
retires from business, giving no
reason. He hanged Roger Case
ment and Edith Thompson, the last
woman hanged in Great Britain.
Ellis was paid fifty shillings,
about $3.50, each time he hanged
a human being. That was for the
hanging. They paid him fifty
shillings more "for good conduct"
Good conduct" meant that he
must stay out Of drinking saloons
at the place of execution before
and after the hanging. This made
him lose money; in the old days
public houses would pay the hang
man to stand at their bar.
The more he drank the more the
hangman talked, the more he
talked, the more terrible became
his stories of the groaning, beg
ging, pleading or game indiffer-
ence" of the men around whose
necks he fastened the rope.
If you think hanging or other
capital punishment necessary ITO
frighten criminals" devote a mo-
ment's thought to Ellis, the British
hangman.
If a crowd rushed to see him,
buy him free drinks, and listened
to his tales of horror, do you think
hanging really prevents crime?
1t does not, on the contrary, it
stimulates crime, by stimulating
admiration for the criminal.

the world. She can sustain the
weight Of a two-ton elephant, and
allow men on horseback to ride
over a bridge of which the weight
rests upon her.
In old days, such a lady would
have been courted by many.
She might have been that ANA
zon queen, who told Alexander the
Great that she would like to be
the mother Of his children, mes
sage followed by an interesting
meeting.-Alexander having sent
the only reply that a polite man
could send-being bachelor at
the time.
What became of the result Of
that meeting? Who knows but that
this powerful Italian woman may
be the descendant Of Alexander the
Great?
Now, however, a child moving
an electric switch could raise a
thousand times the weight Of that
two-ton elephant. Mere muscle
doesn't count any more. But strong
women, not able to lift elephants,
but with good strong bodies free
from nicotine, alcohol, late hours
and general foolishness, are as inn
portant as ever they were.
Upon them depends the brain of
the next generation and future civ
ilization.
Nature is wonderful" There
are birds like animals, animals like
birds. The strangeness Of creation
is inexhaustible. The University Of
Pennsylvania sends an expedition
to catch a hoazin, bird that breaks
stones with its beak, swims like
duck, flies like a bat. The same
expedition will look also for q
"Bellbird." Instead Of singing 1t
tinkles like a bell.
There are snakes that swallow
their young to protect them, then
let them out again. There is a
lady toad that lays her eggs on
the back Of her husband, who hops
around cheerfully in the sunlight,
Matching the load. Nature really
is wonderful.
