Andrew Carnegie, apropos of a war
advocate, told a New York reporter a
little story.
"The arguments' of this war advo
cate—the argument that warfare per
fects a man's character, for example—
are just as senseless ae that of the
Bullfrog fire-eater.
"The sheriff of Bullfrog told a fire
eater that, since he had already killed
seven men, he must cease to go armed.
"'What!' roared the ilre-eater.
'What, me not go armed? And every
little Bullfrog wild flower has a pistol
and shoots!'"
Napoleon's Vain Struggle,
One hundred years ago the Emperor
Napoleon, after having fought three
battles with the allies in three suc
cessive days, met Blucher himself at
Vauchamps, and, after a keenly fought
engagement, drove the invaders back
with considerable loss. By the four
engagements with the Silesian army,
fought between February 10 and Feb
ruary 14, Napoleon gained 18,000 pris
oners, whom he at once sent to Paris
in order to raise the depressed spir
its of the populace. In that, however,
he only succeeded imperfectly, for
while Blucher was temporarily held
in check Prince Schwartzenberg ad
vanced up the Seine toward PariB, and
the Russians under the Emperor Alex
ander were likewise pressing steadily
forward with the French capital as
their objective.

PARIS NOT PREPARED
FOR LEH6THYSE6E
In Case of War French Capita]
Would Face Famine in
Four Days.
Paris, Feb. 14.—In case of war the
city of Paris would probably find itself
without bread within four days. This
alarm has been sounded by the mu
nicipal council after a thorough study
of the possibilities and the announce
ment lias resulted in a popular demand
for measures to assure an ample food
supply In case of a conflict. This minis
tor of war and the under secretary of
state have decided to take up the
whole question With the municipal
council for further study with an en
deavor to solve the problem.
Military authorities point out that
during the first few weeks of mobiliza
tion in case of war, all railroad trains
and lines would bo reserved exclusively
for military trains and no supplies for
the civil population could be trans
ported. it has been proposed among
other things to buy 10,000 tons of flour
to be kept in a public waiehouse and
to be used as necessity arises. It is
suggested that the state contribute
Immediately $90,000 as a first payment

the municipality $40,-

supply of flour and wheat Is consid
ered most Important the authorities are
also planning to eonscrvo stocks of
other necessary things, including wood,
coal and oil.

known retired army official, "an order

a time when all the problems of na

They would burn all the time and

scratch it, it was always so sensitive
to the touch. I could not let my

of the kidneys escape, attention until

LITTLE CHANCE TO LAND HIM
Either Young Man Was Very Slow or
the Bait Was Not Sufficiently
Attractive.
Reginald Vanderbilt said at a pre*
Easter wedding in N'ew York:
"How interesting it would be if we
could know how all these pretty wed
dings came about! Often, no doubt,
the girls themselves brought them
about, unless, indeed, the man was
too inordinately dense, like Travers.
"Travers met a pretty girl last win
ter in Bermuda. He danced with her,
he wheeled with her for strawberries
and cream, and he bathed with her in
the pretty blue pool with its lining of
azure tiles.
"But he didn't propose. Was he too
bashful? The girl, at any fate, one
afternoon in a tea garden, offered* to
read his future, and, holding his big
brown hand in her slim white one,
she murmured, as her finger .moved
delicately across his palm:
'This line indicates that before
you lies—happiness.'
She paused wifcli downcast eyes.
But nothing followed. The young man
sat beside her, grinning sheepishly.
Her lip curled in disdain, and she
added, in a clear, cold voice:
'But this other line indicates that
you'll never overtake that future.
You're too slow.'"
Taking Life Easy.

"In the southern part of Arkansas,"

were one day sitting on the porch
when a funeral procession passed the
house. The man was,. comfortably
seated in a chair which was tilted back
on its hind legs against the side of the
house and was engaged in whittling
on a piece of wood. As the procession
proceeded he said:
'I reckon or man Williams has got
about the biggest funeral that's ever
been held around hyer, Caroline.'
'A purty good-sized one, is it Bud?'
queried, the wife, making no effort to
move.
•"You betcher!' Bud answered.

said the woman. 'What a pity I ain't
