(By mail.) — “Germany must regulate and adjust its currency and financial sityation if it is to avoid- conditions worse than Rus-| sia’s.” / Thie statement of Hugo Stinnes, coal and iron %ing, is onme of his aerguments in ais fight against so- cializationn of the German coal mines. S tinnes takés the position that, with- Germany’s- finances in a muddled, almost kankrupt condition, socalizatién is an impossibility. If the financial structure( topples, ac- cording to his thcory, Germany_ is ruined forever. The entente can ste in- and take what it wants. And, sccialization of the mines will not alter the general financizl situation— except perhaps to make it worse. He contends, further, that the two or partial socialization with both capital &nd labor represented—will make for higher expenses and lower production. Singling out the coal mines for socialization is, actording to the miring king, an impossible propo- ition, The whole national economy muzt be cleaned up and improved, and this singling out procdss would cnly meen a further wrench of the entire structure, h contends. ~.'The present national investiga- tion ‘into means of socialization of the mmes,” Stinnes told a group of industrial chieftains, “must take the whole economical “Bituation into consideration. . “If we are unable to regulate our currency, we will be unable to buy any more grain. We need perhaps about 15,000,000,000 marks for for: eign foods; to that amount must be added' around 20;000,000,000 marks deficit in the post and ‘railroad ad- ministration and the burdens of the army of occupation. Against this we have only our labor. if we do not regulate pur currency, worse con- ditions will come here than in Russia. “Removal of the coul minihg from the complex of our economiT life would spell the ruination of our economy.” The industrialists adopted a reso- lution saying that full socialization of the mines would mean national death, and weuld ruin the workers’ situation. Proposing Made Easy. In Slam a declaration of marriage is very_simple. It is considered a pro- posal merely to ofter a-lady a flower, or to take a light from a cigaret if she 1s holding it In her mouth, so that even the most timid youths need not fear the ordeal. Think Before You Speak. It Is a good thing to say what you think, agd to be truthful, but never forget to think what you say and to be thoughtful.

KIND TREATMENT IS NEEDED Docile Creature ls Willing to Make Friends With Keeper—Will Re- sent Rough Handling. Kindness should not be forgotten, for the cow is a docile creature willing to be friends with her keeper when she finds out that he is her friend and no reason to fight. The more intelli- gent and sensitive the anfmal is, the more likely It 18 to resent unjust treat ment. Bell_That Worked Miraclew ™ Many tales of the supernatural are) told concerning evil spirits and the ef3: cacy of bells in warding them off; likewise regarding the power of con- secrated bells for bringing blessings. In an eld chapel at Killin in Perth- shire, Scotland, was a bell called that of St. Fillan, which had the reputation of curing lunacy. After the sufferer had spent a night in the chapel he was in the morning placed with great solemmnity under the bell, and in many cases recorded in the old. chronicles the faith was rewarded. Shared Fame With Friend, It 15 said that virtually all the plays to which the names of Beaumont and Fletcher are attached were written by Fletcher alone. Beaumont was friend of Fletcher’s and lived wi him, they bad a kind of David and Jonathan affection for each other, and ‘Beaumont's name is said to have gone on the piays more for sentimental reasons than for any other.

This was on' Sunday afternoon, when the battle took place, and it was not wuntil ‘the following Tuesday that Sir Gérvase's son found ‘the ' body " of his father. When discovered it was entirely na- ked, having been stripped by camp plunderers. The body was also cov- ered with wounds, sixteen of a major naturé belng counted. Beling brought from the field, efforts were made to accomplish what ap- ‘peared hopeless resuscitation. Rub- bing ‘was tried and-after a long time a faint warmness pervaded the sup- posed corpse, finally resulting in vol- untary:movements of the limbs, Sir Gervase recovered completely and lived for ten years after what was considered almost a miraculous revivi- catfon, . The doctors were of the opinion that he- owed his life really to the brutal Indifference of = the. robbers, as the coldpess of the nights had ‘coagulated the. blood and prevented him from biceding to death.. Had he been brought off the fleld, they said, and put-in ‘a warm place he would un- doubtedly Have died owing to the fact a1 that, he would not have received. prop- er attention, but which circumstances provided.—Chicago Journal. > Wanted Worth-While' Order.

A number of professional men readily agreed to this. . The book shop was opened and clerks from other party of the store were transferred to it. To onme of these went a scholarly resident of the *|city to buy an erudite treatise on an .| obsqure subject. It- was not in stock and the customer asked that it be or- dered, giving the names of the vol- ume, its publisher and its author. The young saleswoman entered these on an order blank and stood looking ex- \pectantly. “Have you all the detafls? Is there anything you.do not understand?” fn- quiregd the customer. “How many dozen do you want?” answered the salesgirl. ¢ _ Shapes of Hair. A Chinaman has a round head.
