SCIENCE HAS PLAYED
UNUSUAL PART IN WAR
Paris.—Paul Painleve, a member of
the French institute, eminent in mathe
matics, deputy for the Latin quarter,
and until recently minister of public
Instruction and inventions, declares
that Thomas Edison “was rather severe
in his judgment when he expressed in
a recent interview his surprise that
science had played sc small a part in
the war.”
“The most important scientific ap
plications made since the war began
are still irfilttary secrets.” said M. Pain
leve to the Associated Press. “When it
Is all over and details of new inven
tions and new developments of old ones,
discovered and put into practice, used
at the front, may be revealed, 1 think
Mr. Edison will revise his opinion, and
that the world generally will admit
that science has done its part.
“To mention only isolated cases, the
processes of wireless communication
and for the registering of sounds at
distances, that is by the ordinary wire
less currents and by ground induction,
have been marvelously perfected
through the requirements of the war.
AH the armies are rivalling each other
n skilful methods for tapping the ene
i >y's lines of telephonic communication
fi .m a considerable distance: not tap
ping as it is generally understood, but
by the use of a marvelous instrument
that enables the sentinel in his ad
vanced listening post out beyond the
front line of trenches to hear the enemy
communications by telephone going
over wires that are several hundred
yards away.”
“No more than an allusion to these
things may be made,” said M. Painleve,
who, as minister of munitions, or
ganized a veritable mobilization of sci
entists and scientific laboratories in
France. The technical section of his
ministry collaborated with inventors to
bring to practical use the interesting
propositions that were found worth
considering. He himself presided over
a special commission of men of science,
charged with the examination of all
new inventions and processes proposed
for use in the national defense, and
must consequently be regarded as in
a better position than any other man in
France to know what science has done
for the war.
“I would mention also,” he said, "a
system that we perfected and put into
use for locating the enemy’s batteries
by sound. The principle was known
before the war, hut it was regarded as
impracticable, it has, since the war,
been brought to the highest state of
perfection and efficiency and for
months has been in use over the entire
front. It has proven so effective that
our adversaries, who captured a motor
car with one of the outfits, have
equipped themselves’ with similar ap
pliances but lacking the delicacy and
the precision . of our instruments. It
whs France that had the entire initia
tive of this brilliant application.
“inventions for following the enemy’s
sapping and mining operations by
sound that were, in all armies, very
crude and insufficient before the war,
have made the most remarkable prog
ress and will reflect honor upon French
science later on.
“Aviation in every respect has been
remarkably perfected by the efforts of
science and technicians since the war
began. Today a pilot goes up in all
kinds of weather without fear of be
ing upset by sudden squalls, so well
have been perfected the measures for
the stability of flying machines. Great
progress also has been made in the im
provement of motors, particularly in
the reduction of their weight in propor
tion to the effective power, so that they
speed up to 150 miles an hour. Final
ly. in spite of the difficulties, wireless
telegraphy has been marvelously
adapted to aviation.”

A Vanishing Art in Masonry.
In the American Magazine, David
Grayson says: -
“In dry walls I think the old s\one
mason takes the greatest pride of all:
for it is in the dry wail—I mean by
that a wall laid without mortar—that
the sheer art of the mason comes most
into play. Anyone can throw a wall
together if he has mortar to make it
stick, but a dry wail must stand out
for what it is. built solid from the bot
I tom up, each stone resting securely
upon the one below it, and braced and
nested in by the sheer skill of the ma
son. The art of the dry wail is the
ancient heritage of New England and
speaks not only of the sincerity and
the conscientiousness of the old Puritan
spirit, but strikes the higher note of
beauty. Many of the older walls I
know are worth going far to see, for
they exhibit a rare sense of form and
proportion, and are sometimes set* in
the landscape with a skill that only
i the master artist himself could ex
teed. Those old, hard wrought stone
fences of the Burnham Hills and
t ’rewsbury, the best of them, were hon
I estly built, and built to last 1,000 years.
A beautiful art—and one that is pass
; ing away! It Is the dry wall that stands
of itself that the old stone mason loves
. best of all.”
Another Slacker.
That citizen is somewhat phoney who
hastens into matrimony, that he may
, dodge the fray: it ought to shame his
1 soul, doggone him, to see how people
! look upon him, upon his wedding day.
i Methinks I see him humbly kneeling,
! his voice all choked with maudlin feel
i ing, before some maiden fair. “The
thought,” he says, "of doing battle out
where the noisy cannon rattle, is whit
ening my hair. So long as I’m remain
ing single, the chances are I’ll have to
mingle with men whom I abhor; I have
no use for soldiers’ labors, X have no
use for guns and sabers, 1 have no use
for war. I’d rather hear my neighbors
hoot me, than have a husky German
shoot me, or prod me with a sword; I’d
rather men should caS me Rabbit, than I
fall into the beastly habit of being
carved or bored. So marry me, sweet
Isabella! Have pity on a cringing fel
lah, who hates the thought of blood, for
if you don’t avert disaster, by chasing
with me to the pastor, my given name
is Mud.” You’d think the girls would
deem him dotty, that they in angry
tones and haughty, would order him
away but Slacker prospers in his woo
ing; girls like his billing and his cooing,
and wod him every day.

The
DESTROYER
By BURTON E. STEVENSON
CHAPTER I.
THE 25TH OF SEPTEMBER.
Monsieur Aristide Brisson, the
fat little proprietor of the Hotel
du Nord—a modest house facing
the Place Puget at Toulon —
turned uneasily in his sleep, as
though fretted by a disturbing
dream ; then he awoke with a start
and rubbed his eyes. A glance at
the dark windows showed that the
dawn was yet far distant, and he
was about to turn over and go
thankfully to sleep again when a
sudden remembrance leaped into
his brain. In an instant, he had
bounded from the bed, struck a j
match, and, after a look at his
watch, lighted a candle. Then he j
returned to the bed, and, without!
compunction, grasped the plump j
arm of Madame Brisson, who was
sleeping peacefully, and shook j
her roughly.
“Wake, Gabrielle, wake!” he;
cried—in French, of course.
Madame Brisson, who was also
little and fat with a white skin
that was her pride, opened her
eyes, stared an instant, and then
sat up in bed.
“Heavens, Brisson!” she cried,
her hand to her throat. “What ,
is it? What has happened? Have
you illness?”
“No, no!” said her husband,
who was struggling with his trou
sers. “But rise, quickly!”
Madame Brisson glanced at the
dark windows.
“I do not understand,” she
said.
“Ah, Gabrielle,” said her hus
band reproachfully, “I should
never liave believed you could
have forgotten! It is today, at
sunrise, that our guests depart!”
“Heavens!” cried Madame
Brisson again, and she, too.
bounded from the bed and begay
to don her clothes with trembling
fingers. “That I should have for
gotten ! Forgive me, Aristide!
What hour is it?”
“It is almost four and a half. At
five, the coffee must be ready:”
“it shall be!” Madame prom
ised, and hurried from the room,
to complete her toilet in the kitch
en.
“Fortunately,” M. Brisson mut
tered to himself, “the fire is laid !”
Then, having held his collar to
the light and decided that it was
clean enough, he buttoned it about
his neck, attached his shiny ready
made tie, donned his little white
coat, picked up the candle and left
the room. Passing along the cor
ridor to the front of the house, he
tapped at a door.
“Who is there?” called a rough
voice.
“Your coffee will be ready in 20
minutes, sir,” said Brisson.
“Very well; and thank you,”
answered the voice, and Brisson
descended to the dining room,
opened the shutters, lighted the
[amp, and spread the cloth.
He was contemplating his han
diwork, his head to one side, when
heavy steps sounded on the stair,
and a moment later two men en
tered. They were both of middle
age, somewhat stocky and heavily
built, their hair close cropped,
their faces smooth shaven and
deeply tanned. They had, indeed,
that indurated look which only
years of exposure to wind and
rain can give, except that, their
ipper lips were some shades light
er than the remainder of the face,
betraying the fact that they had,
until recently, been protected by
a moustache. They were dressed
in somewhat shabby tweed walk
ing suits, and wore heavy well
worn shoes. At this moment, each
carried in his hand a little knap
sack.
M. Brisson greeted then* bent
double, hoped that they had slept
well, foretold a fine day, and as
sured them that coffee would be
ready in a moment.
“Our bags are in our room,
properly labelled,” said one of
them, finding his words with ap
parent difficulty and accenting
them most queerly. “They are to
go to Nice, where we will claim
them.”
“I w'ill attend to it. And you,
sirs?” asked Brisson.
“It is our intention to w-alk.”
“By way of the Cornice?”
“Yes.”
“You will find it a most beau
tiful road; even in your own
America you will find nothing
more beautiful. And how fortu
nate that you will have so fine a
day! Where will you rest to
night?”
1
“At Frejus, probably.”
“A beautiful town, well worth
a visit. Permit me to recommend
you, sirs, that you stop at the
Hotel du Midi. The proprietor is
a relative of mine—a nephew, in
fact; he will treat you well.”
“Thank you,” responded tlm
stranger, and at that moment
Madame Brisson entered, Hushed
but triumphant, bearing a tray on
which was a small pitcher of very
black coffee, a large pitcher of
very hot milk, a plate of rolls and
“crescents,” some pats of but
ter and a jar of honey. She placed
the tray upon the table, greeted
the travelers with the brightest of
smiles, and then, as she flitted
about attending to their wants, M.
Brisson retired to his bureau to
put the finishing touches to the
bill.
This was a weighty business. It
was not often that the little Hotel
du Nord had the privilege of en
tertaining guests from America,
and M. Brisson was thriftily deter
mined to make the most of it. The
price of tlie room, unfortunately,
had been agreed upon in advance;
but there were the meals, and,
above all, the extras—baggage,
lights, attendance, one special
breakfast at live o'clock — one
must be paid for rising in the mid
dle of the night!—confitures, bath
—had there been a bath,? No mat
ter! Wine, cigars—M. Brisson
licked his lips as he put them all
in. Then he made a mistake of live
francs in the addition, and the
tiling was done. He contemplated
it for a moment with satisfaction,
then folded it,' slipped it into his
pocket, and returned to the
breakfast room.
His guests were just rising from
the table, and, a glance told him
that they had done but scant jus
tice to the meal—fully half the
rolls remained uneaten! They
were hi haste, then; so much the
better! He assisted them to ad
just their knapsacks.
“And now the bill,” said one
of them, taking out his purse.
M. Brisson presented it with a
bow. The other took it glanced
at the total, and his face flushed.
He opened his lips to speak,
closed them again, and his eyes
ran up the column,of figures. The
flush deepened, and he opened his
lips; but. when he met Brisson’s
ferret-like gaze, he again closed
them. Without a word, he ex
tracted from his purse a note for
100 francs and placed it in Bris
son’s hand.
“You may keep the change,” he
said.
“Oh, thanks, sir!” Brisson
cried, and he bowed again to hide
the triumphant smile upon his
lips. “Many thanks! A pleasant
journey! And when you come
again to Toulon, remember the
Hotel du Nord!”
The other nodded glumly, and
started for the door, followed by
his companion. Brisson and his
wife accompanied them, again
bade them adieu, and stood for a
moment watching them, as they
went down the street in the direc
tion'of the quays.
“A hundred francs!” said Mad
ame Brisson, and gazed with
veneration at her lord and mas
ter. “But what was your bill,
then, Aristide?”
“Ninety-six francs,” said Bris
son, sourly, “and, for a moment, I
thought the swine was going to
protest it! ”
“If they had not been Amer
icans,” began Madame.

Secretary Baker’s French.
By Fred C. Kelly.
Even war is not without its advantages.
When Newton D. Baker first became sec- 1
retary of war, the task of learning his |

Sundays. And yet for an hour every I

what do you suppose Baker did?
Studied French!
"I have always wanted to speak a little '

MUNICH IS THIRD CITY
OF GERMAN EMPIRE
Washington, D. C,—Munich, the thl-d
fity in the German empire, is described
In the following bulletin Issued by the
National Geographic society:
"The great railroad station at Mu
nich, which the French war office re
ports was lilt by bombs dropped by a
captain of the French aviation corps,
is the heart of a great network of lines
which connect the Bavarian capital
with all parts of Europe. Situated in
a plain on the River Isar. the city is
?00 miles in an airline east of the Al
sation border of France, and about 40
miles north of the Tyrolean frontier of
Austria. Its latitude corresponds to
that of St. John's, Newfoundland, but
owing to its proximity to tlie Alps (25
miles to the south) Its climate is ex
tremely variable.
"In point of population Munich is
exceeded only by Berlin and Hamburg
among German cities. With 596,000 in
habitants, it was somewhat larger than
Cleveland and smaller than Boston in
1910, but it is highly probable that this
number lias been appreciably decreased
since the war began, Just as in the
case of Berlin, which had 2,071,000
people in 1910, but which had only
1,826,000 on February 1, 1916, accord
ing to official figures.
"In physical aspects Munich is one
of the most impressive of modern
cities. Its royal palaces, its magnifi
cent national theater, its great royal
library containing 1,100,000 volumes
and 50,000 rare manuscripts; its broad
thoroughfares, particularly the Lud
wigstrasse and Maximilianstrasse, bor
dered by tlie great office buildings of
tlio Bavarian government, and its fa
mous university, which ranks first
among the German institutions of
learning in the number of its medical
students and second only to Berlin in
tlie number of students of all classes
all these and many other buildings and
institutions make the municipality one
of the chief prides of the Teutonic
people.
"Most of the modern improvements
and practically all of its architectural
splendor Munich owes to Louis I and
his art loving successors. Louis came
to the throne in 1825 and ruled for
more than 20 years. One of the im
pressive monuments of his reign is the
beautiful Propylaea. modeled after tlie
gale to the Athenian acropolis, and the
reliefs which decorate this structure
quite fittingly tell the sory of Greece’s
war of independence and tlie events
transpiring in that kingdom during the
eventful reign of King Otho I, Louis'
son. who was elected to the throne of
Greece in 1S32, but was finally ex
pelled after 30 years. Another beauti
ful Munich gateway is the Siegestor
(Gate of Victory), modeled after the
arch of Constantine in Romo.
“Tlie commercial life of Munich is
scarcely less interesting than its ar
tistic side. In America the name of
ihe city is indelibly associated with
its most important article of export,
beer. In scientific circles Munich’s op
tical and mathematical instruments
have a world wide reputation, while the
art of lithography had its birth here.
More than 100 miles of canals thread
the city in all directions.
“Munich owes its beginning to Duke
Henry the Lion, who in 1158 estab
lished a mint hore and built a bridge
across the Isar in order that, he might
the more easily levy a toll on the salt
ohtained from the springs of Reichen
hall and neighboring villages. Tlie city
occupies the site of the ancient mon
astery of Tegernsee, hem e its name
munichen, the monk). In 1327 the
place was almost completely destroyed
by fire, but it was soon rebuilt by Em
peror Louis, the Bavarian, in the form
which ia rettined up to the accession
of Louis I in the Nineteenth century.
"America has had a share in the
beautification of Munich, for it was
Benjamin Thompson, a native of Wo
burn, Mass., who laid out the magnifi
cent park of 6000 acres known as the
English garden. For his many services
to the Bavarian government tlie Amer
ican scientist and administrator was
made a count of the Holy Roman em
pire and he chose as his title tho name
of Rumford, after the little New
Hampshire village, (the modern Con
cord), where lie had spent his boyhood.
It was Thompson who, upon clearing
the streets of Munich of more than
2,500 mendicants and housing them in
an institution where they became self
sustaining, said: 'To make vicious
and abandoned people happy it has
generally been supposed necessary first
to make them virtuous. But why nut
reverse this order? AVhy not make
them firet happy and then virtuous?’’
Is Uncle Sam a Mean Employer?
From the Duluth Herald.
The American Federation of Labor plans
:l campaign to Induce congress to raise
the salaries of all employes on a grad
uated scale: those getting less than $1,000
a jear to be raised one-third, with a mini
mum of $3 a day. $30 a month, or $!,0S0 a
year: those getting $1,000 to $1,500 to be
raised 25 per cent; those getting $1,600 to
$2,000 to he raised 20 per cent; those get
ling $2,000 to $2,500 to be raised 15 per cent,
and those getting $2,500 and upward to bo
raised 10 per cent.
The American Federation of Labor has
paid something, and we are with it. The
advance in the cost of living has borne
hardest upon those with fixed salaries, and
there are no salaries mere unadulterably
fixed than those paid by the government
There are men—grown men with families—
working for the government at $60 and $00
a month; and In these times Uncle Sam
should be ashamed of himself for offer
ing such pay. Why don't they quit? They
have been long In a sure position, many
af them are well along in years, anil
they dare not quit a certainty for an un
certainty. And who shall blame them?
The plan would be stronger if It stopped
»t the $2,600 limit; though many salaries
above that are absurd—notably those in
[he diplomatic list.
Cut above all. congress should see that
[hose getting the smallest wages are
panted a living wage.
Uncle Sam should set an example of
teneroslty In his treatment of his em
iloyes, not of nlggardiness.
Thrift Is a Passion.
From the Toronto Globa.
Montreal—Robert Rogers, speaking here
in Canadian trade during and after the
var, urged the necessity of thrift.
"Among certain countries of the old
vorld thrift is a passion,” said he. “It
akes the place of riches and Is better for
he people. In Holland. Denmark, Nor
vay and Sweden nothing goes to waste.
Die women know how to economize and
hey practice economy as a fine art. The
>eople of these little countries hate waste
ind you will find no happier people In all
he world. The women practice thrift In
heir clothing by buying sensibly and
rearing seasonably, and they conserve
heir food so that everything counts. A
aimer In Holland will take more out of
Ive acres than multitudes In other eoun
rles take out of 100 acres.”
The uneven diffusion of light ema
latlng from an Incandescent bulb has

Reprisals.
Col. Richard jWoodhouse' said In a
recruiting address In Lexington:
“Nothing will stop the Huns’ bar
barities but reprisals, if Reims ca
thedral Is destroyed, let us destroy
Cologne cathedral. And on every ship
that enters the submarine murder zone
we ought to put Germans of high
rank.”
Colonel .Voodhfiti.se paused and
smiled.
“There's nothing like reprisals," ho
said. “A tobacconist sent a doctor
the other day a ten-doliar box of
cigars, saying lie knew they hadn't
been ordered, but they were so excel
lent iie was sure the doctor would en
joy them. Bill inclosed. Terms
strictly cash.
“The doctor wrote hack :
“ ‘Delighted with the cigars. Though
it is true you haven’t called me in, I •
venture to send you herewith two pre
scriptions for rheumatism and dyspep
sia, respectively, that I am sure you
will like, as they have given universal
satisfaction to ray clients. .My charges
being tjtb for prescription we are now
quits.’ ”
Marital Consideration.
A considerate man who really wants
to make his wife happy will look de
jected and miserable at the station
when she is leaving for the summer.
She carries a heavy heart with her if
he happens to be brutal enough to
look as If he were anticipating a hot
old time.—Houston Post.
Sinks Rapidly.
“What is a sinking fund, Johnny?"
“Pa’s bnnk account when the bills be
