NAVID LLOYD GEORGE has
~ aroused q lot of animOsity by a
badly timed interview in which he
tells OF his recent discovery Of "a Sc
Cret compact" signed in April, 1919,
between Woodrow Wilson and former
Premier ClemenCeau concerning the
occupation of the Rhineland. He said:
II always have been attacked as the
villain in the piece. / have just re-
ceived the documents from the foreign
office. The French now wish to pub
lish an agreement between Mr.. Wilson
and NJ. Clemenceau and desire me to
agree. This is a little late to ask my
consent. l never have seen the dOcu-
ments before"
The British foreign office says Lloyd
Georges story is inaccurate; that the
French government wished to publish
n yellow Book" containing certain
documents connected with the drafting
Of some articles of the treaty Of Yer
saIlles and asked the permission of
the British government that the lat
ter as a matter Of courtesy first sent
the proof sheets to Lloyd George, and
that he did not reply or return the
proof sheets. NJ. Clemenceau and An
Dire Tardieu warmly deny the truth OF
Lloyd Georges statements. The for
mer says: IF Lloyd George will pro
duce a secret agreement between viii
son and me, l will pay the repara
tions." Tardleu told the chamber Of
deputies: "The text that Mr.. Wilson

SUES ESTATE OF MAN
WHO HANGED SELF
St. Louis Woman Asks So.
900 in Unique Action.

st. Louis.-When John p. Martin,
formerly manager Of the Martin build
ing, came to the home of Mrs. Mary
Shupe. he agreed to conduct himself
in an orderly manner and not interfere
with the welfare of the family.
But q few months later he went to
the basement of her home and COM
mitted suicide by hanging himself
from a water pipe.
This, Mrs. Shupe contends, was q
violation Of his agreement, and she
brought suit for $4,000 damages in
the Circuit court against Joseph e.
Martin, administrator of the estate Of
John Martin.
In committing suicide at her home,
she complained in her petition, Martin
"acted voluntarily and intentionally
and knew he would disturb and dis
rupt the peace and quiet Of herself
and family.
Martin, she explained, lived at her
home as a rOomer and bOarder for
about six weeks prior to his death.
During that time, she declared, he
conducted himself in q reasonable
and orderly manner, according to
agreement.
But, without even notice or warn
Ing" Mrs. Shupe alleges. he went to
her basement and ended his life.
The next morning, she complains,
she went to the basement and collided
with Martins body. The discovery.
she added, severely shocked her nerv-
Gus system, and as a result her health
was greatly disturbed. She later be-
came "sick and ILL.," she asserted, and
had to get the services of three ply
sicians.
The illness, she said, Is permanent
and she is unable to perform her
household duties. =
Martin is one of the heirs to the
Martin estate.

There are several characteristics

4 minimum resistance caused by losses

The coil which l shall describe pos

about three-eighths inch wide, and

The outside circumference OF the
ring is first divided into 90 parts. This
ls done by dividing the circumference

Of the points left by the dividers.
Next divide each space in half. Do
this three more times and cut a notch
