Just how far they can go without | police interference is worrying the bookmakers, who already are laying their plans carefully for a bit of un- der-cover betting when the New York |racing season starts on May 20. Last | year there were a few raids, and this iycar. according to word which has gone out in the shape of a tip to the {racing fraternity, strictness will be the rule. The arrest over in Maryland a few weeks ago of a hundred Washington | betting fans, among them a congress- man or two, has made the pony-fol- lowers here a bit chary. There has been a bit of betting on the Q. T. jthroughout the winter, but the old pool rooms days are far in discard— at least the police say so. The-stewards of the Jockey club, who met here the other day, tenta- tively picked May 20 as the date for the start of the racing season here- abouts. It is by no means certain that the Westchester Rgcing associa- tion will open the sport in New York state, for there is talk of reverting to the Aqueduct track. Jamaica, which had to split its dates last year, *|may be in line again.

When a cold extends to the-bron- chial tubes it is called bronchitis. For this disease Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy is excellent. Mrs. Will Har- ris, Zanesville, Ohio, says of it, “Last Winter I was bothered for several ‘weeks with bronchitis.

Floods Reach Crest. Today the floods have reached their highest. They extend ten miles in every direction from the Yser. Roads, built'higher than the country- side criss-cross the inundations like strips of . crust across a pie. Here and there are farm houses in ruins, occupying islands scarcely above the water. Most of the trees are now |prone in the mud and ooze, the ground having become too soft to hold the roots firmly. An occasional windmill, like a dead. thing is seen lying on its side in the water. Waterfowl Only Living Thing. ‘Wagons, carts, caissons of cannon, haymows and whatnot dot the waste, but as one looks about over the ex- panse he does not see a single living thing save-a few waterfowl. This is the scene of the fighting in Flanders. Both the Germans and the Belgians have built up, rather than dug trenches along the roads and every intersection is a small = fort. Throughout the day artillery 1s pounding away but very seldom does the infantry. come into action so long as the daylight lasts. ‘When they do it is to fight in water ‘waist -deep, with occasional tumbles into the drainage ditches with whica the always somewhat wet farms were liberally cut from the war. The slightly - wounded fall strangling to death in the water. Infantry engagements, because of the floods, must necessarily be along the roads where machine guns play havoe. Surprise attacks are prac- tically impossible unless a comman- der wishes to see his men annihilated. Dark, even stormy nights, are best for this kind of fighting and a bright moon puts a:stop to storming expe- ditions. Flanders Like World’s End. But rain or moon; the night is kept fairly.light by means of aerial bombs which the Germans shoot 100 feet into the air. When they ex- plode noiselessly they leave a great, white luminous ball of fire, making things everywhere as clear as day for nearly a minute. So.the Germans guard against surprise attacks. The war in Flanders is a war un- to itself. It has rules of its own, special to it and applicable to no other part of the line. And dreary! It is the gloomiest spot on earth. One is given the impression . that when all living things shall have perished from the face of the earth, the world will look just like Flanders. Doubt and Progress. If on any point we bave attained to certainty we' make no further inquiry on that point, because inquiry would be useless. The doubt must intervene, before the Investigation can begin. We have the act of doubting as the Decessary antecedent of ali progress. Here we have that skepticism the very name of which is an abomina- tion to the fgnorant, because it dis- turbs .their complacent minds, because it imposes on them the fatigue of in- quiry and. because it rouses even slug- gish understandings to ask If things are as they are commonly supposed and if all’ is really true which they from their childhood have been taught to belleve.— From Buckle’s “Hiutory of Civllization.” Manhood’s Estate.
