London, Dec. 1l.-One Of the Lon
don newspapers has weather stunt
which it pulls twice a year just as
regularly as clockwork.
In the winter, when for England
it gets quite cold, this paper is sure
to have a headline announcing that
on yesterday England was colder
than Iceland. And the very next
day it is just as sure 10 have an
interview with an Icelander visiting
in London.
Among other things the man from,
the land of ice aud SHOWS will say:
Il am taking the first boat back to
Iceland. | can't stand it in England
It's too cold for me"
In the following summer, when
for two days it stops raining and the
sun shines, this same paper is sure
to have Il headline proclaiming that
in London yesterday it was hottel
than equatorial Africa. And just as
surely the next day it will have ar
interview with black man from one
of Encland's mid-African possessions
VINO will say:
ooh boy, | can't stand your heat
| am going back to the African
jungles to get cool"
At one time under the last czal
the Russian possessions, including
Siberia, were supposed to contain
1S0.000,000 people.
1t would be an interesting game
for some statistician to figure out
how many millions of these were
princes and princesses.
Even today, after the Bolsheviks
have murdered hundreds of them, all
Europe swarms with Russian princes
and princesses.
They are as common as June bugs
in summer time And no wonder. Is
a man a Russian prince? Then all
his kids are princes and princesses
And when they marry and have off
spring more princes and Processes

To pay attention to the unkind
remarks would only add fuel to the

how an American tourist once came
near giving his eminence a 1O-cent

The traveller went into the little ca.

Ulster country. A little bent ole
man came up and obiigingly took
him around, discouYsing very intel.
ligently about the points of the
