1918, had the Americans not come in, though it
would certainly have won later even without U.s.
That may go down with some British super pa
tro's, but the more level-hesded residents Of the
tight little island know that it is bunk. Britain,
like France, had combed out the last Of its man
hood. In the fateful early days of 1918 when Lu-
dendorff let loose his ayaanches Of fighting Ger
mans, both Britain and France Keeling under
the shock. The echoes Of it heard clear back
in Warrington where the reporters were told By
gravefaced American governmental officials tina:

war was over and the Germans on top.

It's all Of piece with persistent Europe wide

military aid was practically nil. The conclusion
naturally follows: since men did nothing the

Movies In the Home
New York WORLDLY

From Rochester comes the news that fourninnte
movie films made in quantity for home consump-
tion Will be the next innovation to reach the mar
ket. Heretofore, people who own their own pro-
Jectors have been restricted to brief films taken
with their own cinema cameras, or pictures they
could rent from "film libraries" Now it will be
possible to form private film collection. Movie
fans can buy four minutes Of Jackie Coogan or
Charlie Chaplin as they buy four minutes Of Nine.
Jeritza or Fritz kreiser They can borrow frop,
neRhbor four minutes Of the finish at Churchill
Downs or of mountain climbing in the Himalayas
as they now borrow the latest novel,
But If four minutes, why not forty? II pamphle1
films. why not fu-volume films? In a nation Of
ll50oo.o0O, quantity production holds the key to
many seeming mpossbilites. Obviously, at pres

dollars to screen be paid for only through thou
sands OF movie houses charging a quarter to 81
apiece to tens Of millions IF patrons But there are
good pictures that be made for few tens or
hundreds of thousands Of dollars. Instead of pub
fishing the less costly pictures to several thousand
movie houses why not publish them to hundreds
OF thousands of homes? Or when the costly pic
ture has had its first run, why not cheap editions
for the firesdc?
At any rate, even in it's present forn-baby learn

Daily Health

Editor Journal Of the American
Medical Association and of Hygeia,
the Health Magazine

When serious illness develops in
the ordinary home, particularly in
the family that lives in small
apartment, the telephone wires to the
corner drug store are kept busy,
and messengers beat path to the
door bringing, piece by piece, the
things that are necessary for the
care Of patient in reasonable COM
fort.
As everyone knows, things pur-
chased hastily in emergency are not
always the best that can be had or
the cheapest. Since certain
amount Of sickness occurs in every
family sooner or later, the fore
sighted poison will have available,
in relationship to the family medi-
cine chest, the necessary apparatus.
Fountain syringes can now be had
made Of rubber or of metal or of
porcelain. All are satisfactory.
Rubber requires care and attention
when not in use or it will spring a
leak or be found unworthy at the
time when it is needed. A two-quart
enamel or aluminium can is durable.
These are now made so that they can
be used for the double purpose of
application of heat or for syringe.
TuDDeT SneeC saves the mousse
hold linen in times of illness. In
emergency, a piece Of table oil cloth
about a yard long can be substituted.
In the absence of both, several thick
nesses Of newspapers can be used
temporarily.
A patient severely i'll will require
utensil for body excretions, since
carrying the patient to and from the
bathroom is undesirable.
Bandages Of varying widths can
now be bought in any DRUGSTORE and
supply of these kept in a cardboard
box is as necessary as the medicine
chest in any family where there are,
children.
If a patient requires fresh air

IN NEW YORK

New York, July S-The home

in its high rent belts.
The peak price has just been
reached at Fifth avenue and 77th
street, where there rises an apart
nent house in which 20 room suite
sold the other day for something
like $4,000. Down payment of $22.-
500 a room was paid and mortgage
taken.
Up to this time the record had
been held by an apartment taken
by Mrs. w. X. Vanderbilt I'd, for
which was paid about 100000.
The most colorful figure wander
ing in the push-cart crowded streets
of the east side is an ice tea ven
dor. R
He carries, strapped to one shout
der, huge brass samovar that
reaches almost to the ground. Its
tip is decorated with tiny flags Of
all nations and bound about it are
festoons of artificial flowers. AS he
walks, the metal glistens in the sun
like gold. He goes about on hot
afternoons, getting his patronage
from the sweating push cart dealers.
He pours out his beverage with a
skillful tiltrof his back and straight
ems up again when the drink is
poured. So expert is he at the pour
ing process that he never touches
the samovar with his hands. Crowds
of youngsters gather about him,
watching this trick and hoping some
day to see him spill a few drops.
But he never does.
This is the season for street
shrines in the foreign colonies Of
Manhattan.
First one saint and then another
is feted on the crowded sidewalks.
Walking down Houston street the
other day found St. Colagero await

The saint of the poor man is

trict where need cries from almost

be carried. about the streets. even

proceeds it. and troops Of children
parade, dressed in gay costumes. The
drab background of New York seems
10 fade as these pageants pass and
there comes to take its place the air
OF some medieval city Of the old
world.
For several blocks the street hangs
with pennants, and along the curb
appear dealers in holiday candies
and toys, bright candles and tinsel.
1t is also the custom that all who
can afford it shall leave contributions
on the shrine. Dollar bills are pin
ned to the raiment Of the figure and
within few days hundreds of dol
lars are fluttering in the wind. Those
who cannot afford dollars leave
dimes, quarters and half dollars at
his feet. 49,

If the increasing incidence of robbery Of diamond
statesmen the last few years is now inducing extra
precautions the band Of daring and highly skilled
diamond thieves will be forced either to 20 to work

There may be some understandable trade reason
why statesmen have carried fortunes in gems around
with them in leather hand baggage as carelessly as
though the bags contained nothing more valuable
than personal belongings, but the practice has al

the ordinary purse-snatcher. but it does not fool
the diamond thieves, who apparently keep many Of
these ssleamen under espionage from the time they

There lived a sage in days of yore,
And he a handsome pigtail wore;
But wondered much, and sorrowed
more,
Because it hung behind him.
81. :
He musan2uppn this curious case,
And swore he'd change the pigtail's
place,
Ard have it hanging in his face,
Not dangling there behind him.
And though his efforts never slack,
And though he twist, and twist, and
tack,
Alas! still faithful to his back,
The pigtail hangs behind him.
