DEDICATED TO THE SERVICE OF THE PEOPLE, THAT NO GOOD CAUSE SHALL LACK A CHAMPION, AND THAT EVIL SHALL NOT THRIVE UNOPPOSED.
PITER AND THOR ARE HERE. BUT WHERE IS THE GOD THAT IS
CALLED LOVE?
(BY H. D. S.)
IT IS probaWe that the next few weeks will witness
in northern Italy tragedies like those of Belgium,
except far the worst excesses against the human
dement. Neither Germany nor Anstria-Hnngary will
care to make quite such a record as has been written
in Belgium, but so far as historic cities, buildings,
monuments, cathedrals, etc, are concerned, Italy is
not likely to escape frightful injury and partial de
suiK'tion. Already many of the more precious art
works have been removed to southern Italy. But of
course it is impossible to remove or protect the great
bulk of them. They must take the chances of war
chances that are not like any chances they have had
to face in the last 500 years.
The chances of war, in this new and terrible develop
ment of human fury, are not alone those of deliberate
and cold blooded destruction. Cities will be defended,
and of course they will be bombarded. Church and
cathedral towers will be used by the defenders and the
invaders for observation points, and of course they
will be shot down and blown to pieces. Palaces and
art galleries will be nsed for headquarters and barracks,
and of course they will be shelled, and airmen will drop
bombs upon them. Saints who have stood with uplifted
hands for a thousand years will find themselves in
the way of shrapnel, and they will unsuccessfully try
to dodge. Chapels and shrines will be used for kitchens
and hospital bases. Ancient and honorable ruins will
become forts behind which great mortars will squat.
Bridges dating back to the Caesars will be blown up
to gain a few moments delay.
Those who have been in Italy will feel the pang the
more keenly, bat even those who have not seen Italy
can imagine what it means to have the path of war
and the way of the invading Germanic hosts lie through
Verona and Udine to Brescia, Mantua, Cremona, Parma,
and Milan; to Padua and Venice.
Actual invasion is not likely to proceed beyond the
Po river. France will assist Italy in protecting Pied,
mont. The Austrian fleet can make its stand in the
upper Adriatic But it is highly probable that Lom
bardy and Venetia with the Austrian Tyrol will be
come one of the fiercest battle areas In the present war;
unless the Germanic empires are already further spent
than now appears. Italy may be able to keep the war
away from her own territory, but she must make the
thrust quiekly or lose every advantage of the aggressor.
Italy has deliberately chosen her course when she might
have remained neutral and at peace. Win or lose, there
is fathomless woe in store for her.
Northern Italy is the battleground of more than 20
centuries. Scarcely a province but turns up its battle
relics with every furrow. But never was a war fought
there in which so much and so concentrated bitterness
of unquenchable hate entered as in this war.
Through flowery Alpine passes and across the blue
Adriatic vengeance will seek its prey. Merciless, merci
less. I
A Life Saving Station For Babies
The Tammany tiger celebrated a cheerful and lively
126th birthday the other day.
o
The English suffragets are doing a good job in adopt
ing war orphan girl babies, even if they make militants
out of them.
What to do with Dernburg is an embarrassing ques
tion. The unofficial mouthpiece of Germany has no
responsibility, no official status, he has only a particu
larly inflammable tongue, and just now when Uncle
Sam is demanding cool thinking of the country Dern
burg seems to be in the way. i
Thursday evening there will be an entertainment at
the Toltec club for the benefit of the baby sanatorium
at Cloudcroft. The cause is one deserving of unanimous
support, and the response to the call should be generous.
Those who cannot attend the party can at least give
.something, and all may assure themselves that the
money will be conserved with careful economy and
well spent to save the lives of infants.
The worst foe of babies in this climate affecting
babies of all classes of the population is -the sudden
change from cold to heat. The next most formidable'
foe is improper feeding, and this is most likely to
affect the babies of the laboring population, though
it affects all in varying degree. Impure food causes
much illness especially impure milk. Unsuitable food
causes much illness the practice of feeding babies food
that is meant for older children and grownups. A long
course of popular education is necessary in order to
correct the unfavorable conditions due chiefly to ignor
ance, partly to poverty. But climatic changes must be
met as they occur.
Cloudcroft is a mile higher than El Paso; it is
always cool, and the air among the pines and firs and
spruces is always clean and bracing. Experience in
hundreds of cases has demonstrated that the mere
change of location from El Paso to Cloudcroft is often
an effectual remedy in cases of infants' intestinal
diseases. This change, accompanied by proper medical
treatment, careful nursing, and right diet, results in
most cases in saving life and effecting a cure.
It was in order to ,hring the advantages of Cloud
croft within the means of all, that the Cloudcroft baby
sanatorium was established. It is the free gift of a
public spirited El Paso citizen to humanity. It is
supported by voluntary contributions.
A moderate charge is made for accommodations aad
treatment in eases where the parents are able to pay,
but no case is refused in default of ability to pay a
fee. It is intended that all sick babies whs can be
helped by the change of location and who have no com
municable disease shall be taken care of there, with or
without price. The Cloudcroft baby sanatorium is in
no sense a private institution. It is not an investment
for anybody's profit It has never made exposes aad
never wilL It is administered by a board of directors
who give their time and effort to the cause for the
sake of the babies.
The public should inform itself fully about this
unique institution on the mountain top, where health is
restored almost miraculously, and where little babies
sick unto death are brought in on pillows to be jjukkly
revived and sent back to their play. There is 'nothing
like it elsewhere in the "United States. It is one of
El Paso's most valuable possessions. It belongs to the
people, and any friend of humanity will be glad to
assist it to do its special work of service to the little
ones.
So do not overlook the opportunity presented this
week to help. If you so desire, you may send your
contribution to The Herald and it will be acknowledged
and turned into the maintenance fund of the institution.
Every dollar will do something toward saving the Kf e of
a baby. '
If you had ever seen one of the poor "wilted flowers
restored in sparkling beauty to joyous existence, yea
would hardly hold on to your purse so long.
If yon had ever seen those tired, bine eyelids opes
for the first smiling flash of full consciousness. after,
the crisis had been safely passed, yoa weald not hesitate
to give a little.
Maybe your baby will be the next: Who knows?

;-ish Is So Named Because.
e a Lat as It Looks Lik
I ifLE catfish is so named because!
I he looks about as much like a
- fish as he does like a cat.
He is one of the commonest citizens
in American waters and if his disposi
tion was as bad as his looks he would
be more unpopular than a. crocodile.
He consists of a vast, comprehensive
mouth with a specially constructed
head, built to accommodate M. After
a catfish's head is finished there isn't
enough left of him to make a very im
pressive body. He is therefore mostly
head. However, It Is a flat head with ,
a slanting brow. The catfish is not
rioted for his intelligence. He can be '
caacrht with a common hook and any
old bait as easily as a confidence man
.an be hooked by a smooth oil well '
promoter
The catfish is liberally decorated .
with spines and wears two horns over i
his lace which look like the whiskers
of a Chinese mandarin. He is more re
spected on account of his spines than
for anv other reason. No man who has '
ca r-essed a kicking catfish in a .careless j
raoraert catu Dnatr ainzseil to e Ia"
miliar with him again very soon. A
hornet's tail harts worse than a cat
fish's spine, but not for so long.

school boy and the Mississippi river
fisherman. Some catfish are content to
weigh half a pound while some of them
lie in the channel of the great alluvial
rivers and let the food-laden water
flow through their croton tunnel faces
until they attain a weight of 150
pounds and have to be hauled oat with
a windlass. When the Mississippi
fisherman feels a tug boat pulling on
his line he gives three cheers and hauls
away until he peers Into the cavernous
grin of a channel cat. Then he loads
him on a wagon, wraps wet leaves
around him and travels through the
country sawing off catfish steaks until
nothing but the grin is left. The cat
fish is not as talented gastronoraicaUy
as the speckled trout, but he Is a su
perior article of food when skinned and
dehorned and should not be scorned on
account of his looks.
Catfish are said to be able to leave
the water in dry spells and travel long
distances on land, pushing themselves
along with their spines. It was this
talent which inspired tbe early Ameri
can steamboat men to build craft which
could waddle over sand tars when
necessary and navigate long distances
on the damp remains qf a river which
had evaporated two days before.

Bedtime Story For tKe Little Ones
"Mary Caw-Caw and Uncle Wiggfly."
By HOWARD B. GARIS-. '
"W
rELX do you think you are
going to like it here. Uncle
Wiggfly?' asked Norse Jane
Fuzzy Wnrzy of the rabbit gentleman
one morning as he stood on the porch
of bis new hollow stump bungalow and
locked all around.
"Whj, yes, I think I sha.ll," he re
plied. "We may have many new ad
ventures here In crow land."
"Yes, that is very true," went on
Kurse Jane. "Especially if that lively
chap. Jimmie Caw-Caw. is home from
school every day."
"Oh, Jimmie is a good boy: he doesn't
really mean to be bad, and be can't
belp being mischievious til crows
are," Uncle Wiggily said. "He doesn't
mean any harm."
Not even when he pulled all the
lairpins out of Miss Flippity-Flop's
head feathers?" asked Nurse Jane with
a laugh.
"Oh, well, she didn't seem to mind.'
spoke the rabbit gentleman, who, with
the muskrat lady, Morse Jane Puny
"W uzz , had come to -tbe crow land for
a -visit. The crows, including Jimmie
Caw-Caw and his sister Mary, lived In
a big nest house in a tall pine tree, but
a hollow stump bungalow low down on
the ground had been found for Uncle
"W lggily and Nurse Jane.
Oh. Dnele Wiggily!" exclaimed a
voice at one side of the hollow stump.
"will jou please take a walk with
me'"
"Ha! Who are you?" asked the rab
bit gentleman, looking around.
' 1 m Jimmie's sister Mary." the voice
went on. "You met me yesterday, you
remember "
"Oh, yes. of course I did," said the
rabbit gentleman, bowing to the little
crew girL "Why, certainly, I will be
glad to take a walk with you. Shall we
go in my airship or my automobile? 1
brought both with me"
"On, jou funny Uncle Wiggilyr ex
claimed Mary Caw-Caw, as she looked
in a mirror, made of a little puddle of
'aater, to see if her green neck ribbon
had turned red. But Jt had not.
"How can we walk if we ride in an
airship or an automobile?" she askea,
feien if your auto does have German
bo'ogna sausages for tires!"
"Well. I suppose that wouldn't really
be walking to ride," said Uncle Wig
gily. "But it will not be walking,
either, if you fly up in thS air. Mary."
' Oh. rll not- do that," promised the
little crow gil, as she pulled up one
stocking that was slipping down. "I'll
just hop along on the ground with you,"
she said.
"All right, come along!" invited the
rabbit gentleman. "But where Is your
brother, Jimmie?"
'Oh, he has gone to play some games
with the other crow boys," Mary said.
It s just as well, too, for he is very
full of mischief today," she added. "Be
fore he flew away he tied Aunt Flip
jjif -Flop s feet together with one of
jm shoe-strings and she nearly fetl
don nstairs."
Oh, my' How shocking!" cried
Unrip W iggily.
"Oh. it didn't matter much the little
c-ow girl "aid. "Aunt Flippity-Flop is
al-nays stumbling or falling and once
o- twice more, up or down stairs,
doesn't matter. She is used to it"
How odd!" said Uncle Wiggll "But
If we are going for a walk, Mary, we
had better start."
So, leaving Nurse Jane Fuzzy Wuzzy
to sweep, dust and set to rights the
hollow stump bungalow, the rabbit
gentleman and the crow girl set out
for a walk through the woods, Mary
taking with her ja. pew doll, named
Bessie Rosycheek Prettygirl. whose
hair was as curlv as a carpenter's
shavings.
"Are there any adventures in these
Toods" asked the rabbit gentleman,
a he hopped along on his red. white
aid li :e striped rheumatism crutch.
"Once In a -while I see one," said
Mary. T found two the other day and
ate them."
"What? Ate an adventure?" cried
Uncle Wiggily. "Impossible, child."
"But I did." said Mary. "There's One
now. Watch me eat it." and she nicked
1 up an acorn, took off the shell In her
strong Dill and chewed the -white inside
kernel. ,
"Oh, that isn't an adventure!"
laughed Uncle Wiggily. "An adventure
is when something happens to you. like
getting lost or "losing your lollypop."
"Oh. I thought an adventure was
something good to eat!" the little crow
girl laughed and said: "But if an ad
venture is something happening to you,
I think you are going to have an ad
venture right away."
"Is that so? What kind: a good one
or a bad one?" asked Uncle Wiggily.
looking all around, sort of anxious like.
"A bad one, I'm afraid." said Mary
Caw-Caw, "for here jomes the big, bad.
bald eagle-bird chasing after us. He's
always maxing trouoie fs tnat nua
haded eagle.
And. just as she said that, down
from the sky. into the woods, swooped
the big bald eagle-bird, with no feath
ers on top of bis head.
"Ah, ha!" cried tbe bald eagle. "A
nice fat rabbit, eh?" I haven't seen one
as fat in a long time! I guess Til take
him with me!"
"Oh, please don't!" begged Uncle Wig
gily. looking about for a place to hide,
but there' was none. The eagle's eyes
were very sharp. No one could hide
from him.
"res, I'm going to take you!" cried
the bald-headed bird. "I'm going to
fly away with you!"
"Oh, no, you're not!" suddenly said
Mery, the crow girl. "You shan't tae
Uncle Wiggily!"
"Who says soT" asked the bald eagle.
"I do!" cried the brave crow girl, and
with that Mary flew at tbe eagle, and
with her bill she picked him so hard
on his bald head, where he had no
cushion of feathers, that tbe eagle
cried.
"Oh. Ill be good! Til be good! Oh.
Wow! I won't hurt Uncle Wiggilyr
And away he flew to the drug store to
gel some court plaster to put on his
bald head.
"There," said Mary, "that was an ad
venture. Uncle Wiggily!"
"Tee," said the rabbit gentleman, -it
-was! Thank you very much for saving
mo from the eagle. Mary."
Then he and the crow girl walked on
through the woods some more and had
a nice time.

said H. G. Lelghton. "The reputable
agencies here do a real good In secur

who come to the border every year.
But vigorous action should be taken
against the fakers. The Mexicans, es

"Even where property has not been
