One of the many curious features of these outrages is that the Gov- ernment. experts have not yet been able to decide what sort of fluid it is that the suffragettes are using in their letter-destroying campaign. Careful analysis has not revealed the particular com- pound which these militant ad- vocates of Women's Rights have concocted to annoy the public. In the case of this letter the fluid penetrated through the envelop which was of stout paper, and into the letter itself. -The back of the envelope is almost com- pletely blacked out. This letter happened to be only one of the several hundred wnich was suffi- cient decipherable to be deliver- ed to its destination. The black fluid had apparently been placed ina tube with some automatic arrangement, or radio-active sub- stance, which ensured its ¢iect- ion amongst the lettere when the tube fell thrgueh the mailing box. It is reported that the militant sufferagettes now contemplate another campaign of violence. It consists of starting fires in the subways with which Loudon is now honeycombed. A fire in any of the subways would be certain to arouse such a panic as to out in the shade any previous disaster due to a smiliar cause And those who, inevitably, would suffer most, would be the women and childre tyr ren. — Financial Report Of Town.

London, Jan. 13—The British secretary of state for foreign affairs Sir Edward Grey, and the ambas- sadors of the powers have made representations to Rechad Pasha regarding the projected departure of the Turkish delegates, which is equivilant toa definite rupture of the peace negotiation, for which Turkey is considered respons'ble. In reply, Rechad Pasha said that he was not responsible for the sus- pension of the work of the confer- ence, which was decreed by the al- lies not only without asking his opiuion, but without even allowing him to express it when he begged them to do so, He had waited a whole week, hoping that reflection would bring the allies to a more reasonable and moderate view. but as no move nad been made on their part in this direction and no desire had been manifested to hear what further rectification of the frontier Turkey had prepared to indicate— naturally without ceding Adrian- ople—the Turkish plenipotentiaries conld not remain in London inde fin- itely, In deference to England, which had treated them so bospitably, and out of regard for the other powers, whose ambassadors regretted the rupture of the negotiations, - Re. chad Psaha consented to telegraph to Constantinople asking fur defin- ite instructions, The allies also are tired of wait- ing. They do not believe that the note which the powers will present at Constantinople will have the de- sired efiect, but not wishing to take a decisive step without due notice to Europe, they have notified Sir Edward Grey and the ambassadors of their intention to denounce the armistice contemporaneously with, or shortly after the presentation of the note to te Porte, The allies will resume the war four days later. In fact, it is remarked that Greece has never ceased hostilities; that Servia has nothing while more to conquer, with respect to Moutenegio, the armistice has never been observed by Turkey, whose soldiers have made freqvent sorties from Scutar), Therefore, the resumption of hostilities realy concerns only the Thraocean field of operations, of seems to be limited to the conquest The Balkan tary experts here think that under where the activity the allies of Adrianople. wili- present conditions, Adrainople can be taken in a few day by the sacri- fice of 5,900 men.

THE HARM IT DOES MANKIND. od The Case of the Farmer, the Saw Mill- er, the Tanner and Jones Senior—Be Satisfied With Your Sphere, Says the Scrap Book Socrates. By M. QUAD. {Copyright, 1912, by Associated Literary Press.) ¥ friends, | have about a dozen scrap books at home,and most of them are filled with arti- cles on climbing up tn life. About nine people out of ten that can write for publication seem to feel it 4 duty toward the rest of us to advise us to climb up. They take it that every one should make a mad scramble for the top of the heap and that no one should be left at the bottom or in the middle. The case of this one or that fs cited, and if the farmer's hired man who reads the article don’t make a sudden jump for the top he is put down as a man without ambition, 1 once knew a farmer who had a nice farm and everything in the way of comfort. He plowed and sowed and reaped, and his back was not broken =x > asd x rth, nese i BOUGHT A DANCING BEAR AND A HAND ORGAN, in doing it. His family had good enough clothes to weur, and when tax time came along he bad the money to pay and some left over for the bank. That farmer was taking solid old comfort and growing better off each year when he got bold of one of those tomfool articles about climbing up. He turned pale and gasped as he fin- ished reading. Cicero bad been the son of a cooper. The old man bad brought him up to coop barrels and firkios. But for drawing a thousand plunks in a lottery and giving balf of it to his father to let him open a dell- catessen store with the balance the boy | would uever have been heard of thir- teen miles from home. The Sawmill Man. Cicero became a great orator. How? That’s the part these climb-up writers leave out. He got it by standing at his store door yelling for customers, He was a barker. There was nothing io the article to tell my farmer this, He we simply advised to climb and be- come great. He thought it over for a week and then sold his farm and bought a half interest in a cireus. He thought that the best way to get bim- self before the public, but at the end of the second season be hadn't a dol- Jar left. He had climbed up, and he had climbed down, and he is today working as a hired man for the farmer who bought him out, We have with us bere this evening the owner of the red sawmill here at Red Beet Corners. It’s the only siw- mill, red or blue or green, for twenty miles around, It saws on shares or for cash, It gives full measure, and the customer gets all the knots he is entitled to or money refunded. The owner of the mil! isn’t making a for- tune, but he is getting along and let- ting the other fellow do the worrying. None of you will have to chip tn to pay the funeral expenses when he dies, Three months ago the sawmill man got hold of a climb-up article and was at once seriously affected. Chris- topher Columbus bad went and gone and discovered America, and here he badn’t done a durned thing but run a mill. His shirt collar grew limp as he realized what the world was losing. He lost bis appetite and moped around, and refused to tell his wife what alled him. She, poor thing, uaturally laid it to a tapeworm. After thinking and thinking, the husband decided to climb up by selling bis mill and investing the proceeds in a patent machine to punch the pits out of plums. He ar- gued that a plum pit puncher must advance to a highway commissioner, constable, sheriff and a member of the legislature in natural sequence, and he had thoughts of the days when his clarion voice would ve heard in the halls of congress. The Tanner, By and by that good wife got on to- the racket through bis talking tn bis, sleep, and the sudden check she put upon things jarred the whole county. The mill wasn’t sold. Had it been sold and the plum pitter | brought out the busband would now be filling a suicide’s grave. | —~ se eae Tig = TN na | Te a THE LEADER. RAYMOND. ALBERTA. ‘| peck of plums was raised In the United States. We ran everything to eucum- bers, I know a man who once owned a tannery, He was a good tanner, and he had good men in his employ. They called — a square nan, and be was great enough to be respected all over bis county. He had about $200 in the Blissfield bank, and bis bogs ran at large in the streets. They made bim grand marshal on Fourths of July, and he hed a reserved seat at every circus. I must not forget to mention that he was also foreman of the hook and Inda- | der company, and was always the first to enter a burning building and throw the looking glasses out of the window, Want anything better than that? Wouldn't you call it a good thing and hang on to it? The tanner was satisfied with his greatness and turning out the cow: skins and morocco with promptness and dispatch when that fool thing came along to upset him. Some one had written that there was room at the top, that the world was crying for | more great men, that the golden oppor tunity was knocking at the door, and it had been published and fallen under the tanner’s notice. He had never been called a sucker, but he bit at once. He swallowed hook and line and fishpole. Yes, my friends, the tanner set out to climb. He sold out and started In to write a book on the hides he bad tanned, and then came his Waterloo. He aimed to be a Shakespeare junior, but he brought up a thousand miles this side of it. own hide. The Case of Jones Senior. I never discuss family affairs in pub- Ie except to point a moral or adorn a tale. I had a father once. He sup- plied the cooper shops of three coun- ties with hoop poles to make barrel hoops of. There was money in the business. It was almost looked upon as a profession. Solely because he was In the hoop pole business, and not at all on account of his religious fever, my father was always looked to to pitch the tunes in church. We had the only fireplace in any house In the village. . My mother was the only woman for niles around that could afford a new bonnet every year. My father was the only man that had a blue swallow tailed coat with brass buttons. We kept a cow, a hog and a horse, and the cackle of our hens was a com- fort and a joy. ' There were thousands of acres of state land around us from which father could steal his hoop poles, and the supply bid fair to hold out for forty years. Anything lean about that situation? Hoop poles going in and the cash com- ing out. Mother getting fat with her contentment, and father holding bis own around the waistline. Then came the crash. It came as suddenly as a brick house falling over on a passing deacon. Father sat down yne evening to read his weekly paper, and the first thing that stared him in the face was: “Are you going to climb to the top?” It struck him like a bullet. E Pluribus Unum. For years and years he had been | flattering himself that hoop poles were at the top, and it knocked him out to find that they were not knee high. He was told that he must have ambition, energy, high aims and all that, and that article made a fool of him from hair to toenails. He wanted to be a Plato, a Demosthenes, a Napoleon or a Washington. Well, the father of the man who stands before you sold out his bust- ness and bought a dancing bear and a hand organ and started out to be great, He argued that be had got to get be fore the world to do It, and he got there. He also got other things, in- cluding sentences to jail. Within two years he was a wreck, and within ‘three he was dead, His dying com- mand to me was to hunt the world ever and find and break the neck of every man or woman who had ever written a climb up article. As to myself, if | am great, it is not owing to anything | bave read. | have never striven, I have never sighed for jthe top of the heap. It was a cloud- burst that gave me my first start, and being struck by lightning and heaved up by an earthquake helped me along. My friends, you have a sphere. If it is a good one be satisfied. If only so- so, then wait for a cyclone to blow you into the next state and set you up as the only and original manufacturer of the Three Star Brand of pure cider vinegar.

Curious Experience of a Visitor In @ Little French Town. St. Lo, a little town in the Manche department in France, bas no public bath house such as those found in most French towns and cities, for the pri- vate bath in France is yet, as it were, in its infancy. The youngsters of the town bathe in the Vire, but the 12,000 other inhabitants think themselves above such a thing as a bath. Visitors can get a bath, it is true, but they must order four liters of water, all that they are permitted, and it is taken to them. Not long ago a visitor in the town wished to tuke a bath. He went to the bospital to ask permission to take a bath there, as in Brittany this is the custom in towns where there is no pub- lic accommodation. The visitor's re- quest was received rather coldly, and he was told that be would have to make his request in writing to the di- rectors of the hospital. This he did and patiently awaited a response. Nove came, and the visitor left town. Two days Inter the response came | and followed him from town to town up had returned to France, until be throughout | with hin Paris.

And Why Candle or Lamp Light Ap- pears White to the Eye, Phere is a relation between the color _of flame and the energy of the combus- tion causing it. The niore vigorous and complete the combustion the higher the refrangibility of the light A flame burning In a tardy and restricted way | emits rays that are red. When burno- ing in a more complete and effective manner the emitted rays change to vio- let. The flame of a candle or a lamp con- sists of a series of eccentric luminous _ shells surrounding a central dark core, These shells of flame emit light of dif- ferent colors, the innermost one—that ‘in direct contact with the dark core— being red und having a temperature of exactly 077 degrees F. Upon this and in thelr proper order of rafrangibility are shells of light which are orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet. The reuson that such a flame does not appear to us as a nest of cones of different colored light ts this: When | we look upon such a flame all of the rays issuing from the different layers or strata of concentric }uminous shells are received by the retina of the eye at one and the same time. This can only tin press with the sensation of neutral oF white light ‘The Nine tn the Calendar.

The figures 3 and | 7 occasionally fall into odd combina- tlons, but neither of them has ever yet served for a longer period than a bun- dred consecutive years in our calendar since the present mode of calculating time was established. It is also clear that from their relative positions among the numerals it is an impossi- bility for either of them to appear in date reckonings continuously for a longer period than a century.

Strong From Without and Sometimes Doubly Strong From Within. Nobody knows who invented the bar rel. It has been used since time imme- mortal. Barrels are used for all manner of articles, solid and liquid. There are barrels for bolding sugar, salt, apples, potatoes, and so on; for all sorts of oils, from the beaviest lubricants to the most volatile products of petro leum; for beers, wines and all sorts of beverages. It is contended that the barrel is the strongest structure of its size that can be made from an equal amount of wood. Its contents are fre quently the strongest that can be made from liquids. The barrel has tremendous power of resistance to pressure from within and from without, A barrel set op end will, it is claimed, support half the weight of a railway car while the truck Is taken from beneath for repairs. Yet the primitive barrel is put together without nails, screws, bolts or pins. It is entirely self fastened. The barrel is smaller at its ends than it is In its middle, so that the wooden hoops, self locking, may be driven on tightening the staves and pressing the heads into the chines. Although not ealked, berrels are water tight. A small barrel is a keg, a big barre! is 4 cask, and a still bigger barrel is a bogs bexd.—Harper’s Weekly. Hotel Tips In Advance. The Japanese custom of administer- ing the hotel tips inmmediately upon ar- riving is clearly explained by Stafford Ransome. In former days the Japanese inukeeper made a swall charge for the food he supplied, cost price or there- about, and the guest, upon arriving, made a present of money to the house and another to the servants, indicating thereby both his own social rank and the class of accommodation he expect ed. However wunificent these presents, it was polite for him to write “common stuff’ or “rubbish” on the paper ip which he wrapped them up. Fearful confusion resulted when Europeans with our ideas of tipping first came. Presented with a bill for the ridicu- lously smal! sum of 2 shillings, they thought a shilling tip handsome, when as much as 6 shillings was probably anticipated.—London Chronicle, Bread Upon the Waters.

ORIGIN OF A FRENCH DISH. The Order Michelet Received and the Way He Filled It. The names bestowed upon certain dishes have often an origin entireiy dis- tinct from technical consideration, This ts true of the well known epi- grammes @’agneau a la Michelet or a la Toulonse, as it was more frequently called. Michelet was the cook of @ young French marquise of the century who was noted for ber lack of educa- tion, On a certain occasion she gave a din- ner to the officers of the regiment Choiseul-Cavalerie. During the fune- tion her guests spoke of a banquet that they bad attended on the previous evening, at which the host bad enter- tained them with many new and bril- Nant epigrams. The marquise supposed that “epigrams” referred to culinary surprises. Consequently she summoned Michelet, her cook, and ordered him to prepare some epigrams for dinner on he following day Michelet was greatly troubled as to how be was to obey the order. He recol- lected, bowever, that he bad iv the larder some very superior lamb. He braised the breast, removed the bones, cut the meat into pieces and bread crumbed and fried them. He then cooked the cutlets, arranged them on a@ dish alternately with the braised breast aud served them with a suituble gar- nish wnder the name of epigranmes d’agneau a Ja Michelet, by which name, or 4 la the concoction has since Toulouse, been known The Tongues of the Balkans. Too many ianguages are spoken ifn the Balkans. A traveler in that region writes of the babel “Turkish, Bulga- rian, Serbo-Croatian, Roumanian, At menian, Greek, Albanian, Kulzo-Wal- jachian, Chinget the la age of the gypsies; Spanivle, the | of the Jews of Spanish or Vortuguese descent, aud the language spoken by the Ger- man, Austrian, Reumavian and Rus- sian Jews. Add to this Arabic, Persian and Syrian, largely spoken in Constan- tinople; Itallan, on the northeast coast | of the Adria; Russian, in the northeast- ern parts of Roumania; various Austro Hungarian idioms spoken in Rosnla and Herzegovina and the Caucasiin languages of the Circassians and Geor- gians.” Not one of these languages is of common use.
