Saturday-The Old Fever
MY FAVORITE STORIES
BY Irwin S. Cobb

For years this tale has been one Of Sam
Blythes standbys
Sam was born and reared in western New
York, on the lower fringe of the Adirondack
region. He says there used to be guide
over in the mountains who, being reckless by
nature made a speciality of escOrting city
sportsmen into the wilderness during the
hunting season Any North Woods veteran
Will tell you this is a hazardous calling.
Moreover, the mortality figures prove it.
Green sportsmen invade the tall timber
carrying high-powered rifles and shoot at
everything they see moving in the bushes.
The result is that few of them kill one
another but the majority destroy their
guides, even though the latter for self-pro-
lection wear red shirts and red hats and
white neckerchiefs.
This particular guide, so graphically re-
called by Sam, had several close calls. Final
ly when a bullet had ripped his shoulder
and another had blown his cap off, he had
an inspiration. He made himself a suit Of
awning cloth of broad alternative stripes of
white and blue.
But the first time he wore this costume
abroad they brought him home again, bored
through and through. AS he emerged from
thicket a city gunner stationed across
clearing had plugged him.
At the inquest the remorseful slayer was
introduced a witness.
''Now look here" said the coroner, "of
course nobody accused you of killing poor
old Jim Intentionally. But it does seem Curl
Gus to me-and I imagine it strikes the
members of the jury the same Way-when Jim
was in striped clothes which you could make
out mile away, that YOU, standing not a
hundred yards distant, should mistake him
for a deer"
Il didn't mistake him for deer said
the city chan: Il thought he was zebra

they are not guilty, their accusers are
brazen perjurers. Whether, therefore, it be
theft or perjury, that is SO prevalent at the
national capital, the revelations Of abound
ing criminality there alarming.
The matter which should arrest most seri-
Gus attention is not any particular case OF
crime, or number of cases, but it is the
fact that many criminals have grown up
under our elaborate and expensive system Of
education. Evidently mere education alone
does not prevent crime promote good cltl-
Zenship. The educated classes are as much
disposed to crime as are the illiterate.
The States which compose the American
Union eXpend annually above q billion dol
lars on their public school systems in addi-
ton to the vast sums expended for the pri-
Vate schools and the colleges and universe
ties in the land. Nevertheless the waves OF
crime roll on and mount higher day by day
Manifestly We can not depend upon mere
education to arrest moral evil. This We
might have known by little study of his
tory. Nations have risen despite ignorance
and poverty, and they have persisted when
most enlightened and wealthy. The Greeks
and Romans, when most cultured and opu-
lent, were subjugated by uncouth and savage
forces sprung from a fresher and nobler
race While they were gazing daily on the
most impressive forms of architecture, walk
ing amid the noblest statues, boastlng OF
their unparalleled refinement, and prating OF
their progress, their morals were becoming
more foul and feeble. All their cultures did
not enable them to resist the attacks OF
the unettered barbarians under Marie and
Attila. All their literature and art and edu-
cation did not eradicate one evil passion
from their souls or eXtinguish one ponuting
propensity from their natures.
Such has been the in all subsequent
times among modern nations. Remarking
uLon this fact Sir Archibald Alison said near
ly hundred years ago, with the spread of
knowledge and the growth of every species of
social improvement, genuine depraVity has
gone increasing with an accelerated pace
and every increase of knowledge seems but an
addition to the length of the lever by which
vice dissolves the fabric of society,".
This able and famous historian went on to
give the philosophical explanation of the fact
follows: at is not simple knowledge, it is
knowledge detached from religion that pro-
duces this fatal result and unhappily that is
precisely the SPECIES Of knowledge which is
the present object of ferYent popular desire
The reason of its corrupting tendency on NOR
ais is eVident-Where detached, it multiplies
the desires and passions Of the heart without
any increase to its regulating principles; it
augments the attacking without strengthening
the resisting powers, and, thence, the disorder
and license it spreads through society.
The inyariabe characteristic of a declining
increase in the force of passion, and pro
gressiYe decline in the influence of duty, and
this tendency is increased by nothing so much

MANFRED GRAIN

LONDON-That grain fortified by ma
nure produced by living creatures has more
nutritiVe value than grain fortified by the
best known combinations of artificial fertil-
izers is indicated by experiments recently
carried out at an agricultural station in
India. Grain grown from land artfcally
fertilized was found to be lacking in Yitamins
as compared with grain grown from soil fer
tilted with animal manure. The report Of
the work is published in a recent number of
the British Medical Journal.
The experiments were conducted with
pigeons, fed diet of natural milet. The
birds fed with millet grown from artifcially
fortified land tended to develop the charac-
teristic paralysis resulting from yitamin de-
fciency and they also suffered loss of weight
1t was found that the efficiency of grain in
promoting nutrition and prev nting beri-bert
bore no relation to the yield per acre, for al
though land well fortified by artificial ma
terials gave twice the yield of wel-manured
SOIL the grain from the latter was decidedly
the best in the content Of yitamins.

WEATHER BALLOONIST

WASHINGTON.-Loss Of ballc due to
unsuccessful efforts to keep their balloon at
a constant level forced DR.. G. l.. Messenger,
Of the weather bureau, and Lieutenant James
T. Nicely, of the army air service, to a prema-
ture ending of the sixth flight undertaken
by DR.. Messenger to Investigate the ways of
storms. The landing was made at Hen
derson, KY, about o'clock in the morning
of May 8, a little less than nine hours after
these aerial explorers had assembled from
Scott field, at Belleville, III.
The flight one of the shortest of the
series, the total distance being only about
125 miles in a southeasterly direction. At
the beginning the balloon assembled quickly
to 1000 feet. AT this elevation the balloon
hoated between two layers of cloud that eff
fectually cut off all view of the earth and
sky, and no calculation of its position was
possible.
Toward midnight, rain and snow began to
fall forcing the balloon down, and after
much of the ballast had been expended a
gentle and successful landing was made in
spite of rain and darkness. The feature of
the fight was the interesting cloud phe7
nOmena observed.
