The old men in certain public insti- tutions receive their week's tobacco after their weekly bath. The tobacco is a reward of merit; no baccy until a bath and no baccy unless a ‘bath. This may seem a funny story to some persons and an unpleasant one to others, but.it-is really something more than cither.sad or amusing. It is a study in psychology and it con-| cerns everybody, because everybody desires, to, live j s long as possi- ble. . It is customary ‘for the “young to find fault with the ,perversities of the! old, but how many persons’ plan, in| their youth, to make themselves love: ly and lovable at 80 years or more a It can be done, for we are in our decay what we started out to be i our growing formative years. Often we excuse selfishness, stub- bornness, crabbedness, an unclean skin or “general cussedness” on the ground that great grandfather is old and can't help it. It is altogether too late for him to learn how to be gra- efous. But his descendants can profit by his failure. We act in old age according to our inner consciousness. Our defenses fall from us and we betray our weak-; nesses. We reveal what we have been all our lives but what we have man- aged to conceal. The habit of our mind controls us; we no longer con- trol it. If we have wanted to say and do hateful things all our lives, we will be mighty unpleasant members of a family when our dream of living long comes true. ‘But if we have always tried to be Kindly, adaptable and energetic, our relatives will not have to apologize for our conduct before they bury us. In short, if a bath, the chief cere- mony of civilization, has been part of our daily routine, we will never have to be bribed to take .one once a week when we are old. We shape the last of life in the first of it. Thousands of French women have given up cigarets, so that their sol- dier boys can smoke. Attention, Amer- ican ladies! Right face! Mark time! Throw! THE RUSSIAN CRISIS. It is proper and pertinent, at this} period, that the common people, who; do the fighting and dying, should de-| mand information of the war manag®-| ments, the American included. What is being done and what is going to be done about Russia? Are the allies going to it an-! other fiasco, such as those in the cases | of Gallipoli, Greece, Rumania and Italy? Are they going to sit gazing, key in hand, while Germany steals the Russian mule, and only attempt to/ lock up the barn after it’s empty? That the latter is ‘just exactly what! is transpiring is already strongly in-| dicated by what Lord Robert Cecil,; minister of blockade, promptly offers | on the Bolsheviki peace proclamation, { the final er | until Ru: | know how it's done to us, but it sure jis done. lover there are becoming topnotch when he says: “If it represents the real opinion of the Russian people, which I do not believe; it would be a direct breach of treaty obligations and Russia’s alliance.” Hang the real opinion of the Rus- sian people! The real fact is that such government the Russian peo- ple have, or seem able to get, is play- ing into Germany's hands; thar it is as trying to rel » a million or more German veterans for service on the western fro tening ion of Rumania and For the allies n people to “tind” Uiemselves is not only stupid hut criminal, also, for it means addi- and continued slaughter. ‘Treaty tions in the hands of those itin- erant anarchists, Trotzky and Lenine, are just as sacred and safe as they would be in the hands of the kaiser and Von Hindenburg, and no more and any puttering over such obli- tions by the allies is rank comedy, to be paid for in blood. What are the allies going to do about Russia? What are WE going to do about Russia? We cannot recognize tho Bolsheviki government and help Russia with food, fuel and funds. The Russian gov- ernment that is not against Germany is against us. The Bolsheviki may run things for three or four months and then give way to something bet- ter, something standing for the genu- ine popular opinion and aim. But the crisis is immediate and pressing. With- in those three or four months Italy may be devastated and Rumania ut- terly ruined. Shall we say, “Fight with us or eat with Germany?” Shall we join with the allies and pay and supply the big proportion of the Russian soldiers who still will fight Germans and who perhaps actu- ally represent the real opinion and desires of the Russian people? Or, shall we just let things slide is sold out to the German Hy also of Maly. r for the Russi tional pob! autocracy? It is time for our administration to give Russia, to give the allies, to give US its exact attitude toward such international treachery as is now un- der way at Petrograd. iOnly folk in Oregon, Washington, | Wyoming, Idaho, Colorado and Kansas will get a good view of the total eclipse of the sun next June. But, cheer up! Maybe the rest of us will be getting a good view of the totat eclipse of the kaiser.

Jury Visibly Affected. It was a recital in which scenes were rapidly shifted. The first was a luxurious estate in Chile, where the defendant spent her childhood. Then followed a reference to the three years the young woman spent in a convent in England. There was the return to her Chilean home and her acquaint- ance with De Saulles, fresh from lau- rels won-as-a football star at Yale. Then the witness told of her brief courtship- and the wedding in Pari in 1911. Married Life Nightmare. From this point, the story was one of domestic infelicity aud of “indiffer- ent neglect,” and the unfaithfulne: on the part oc the husband, which eventually led to the divorce court. These years of unhappiness for the defendant were described asa “hor- rible nightmare” in one of the several letters written by Mrs. De Saulles as read to the court and which inter- spersed her testimony. Next came the climax of the narra- tion—Mrs. De Saulles’ account of the band’s home near Westbury, L. I. the night’‘she failedin her endeavor to obtain: possession, of her son, and in a moment of ssponsi lity, accord- ing to her claim, fired ihe revolver shots. There was no reference, throughout the five hour recital to “hynothyre- osis,” the thyroid condition which her attorneys say was partly responsible tor her temporary mental derange- ment. BS Bes iy Mrs. De Saulles story having been told there are to be examined several other witnesses on behalf of the de fendant, and then the way will be cleared for a long battle of alienists and other medical! specialists repre: senting the prosecution and defense, which is expected to be waged before the case finally goes to the jury. J Lawyers connected with the trial to- "i. night predicted it will continue well into next week. The Tragedy. Mrs. De Saul reciting the story of the tragedy, said: \ “When De Saulles failed in his promise to return Jack to me early that evening,” said the witness, “I determined to go to The Box and get him.” Mrs. De Saulles then told what she claimed she could remember of the five mile automobile trip from her home to that of her former husband “When I entered the ‘house, | saw baby coming down the stairs with Caroline. (Mrs. Degener),” she con- tinued. +I wanted to take him and run. Then Julius (De Saulles’ valet) arrived. 1 think J asked ‘him, ‘Where is De Saulles?? Then he appeared I said, ‘I think it is pretty last of yin to keen babv away fro ] don’t know what he said. 1 ald, * have come to take him home with. He looked at me. He said, ‘You can't have him—you never can have him. Stunned by Husband’s Words. “I think I was stunred then,” con tinued une witness after a long pause “had a frightful pain in my head.” There was another silence—fully ¢ minute in duration. Then the defend ant added: “L still seem to hear those words!’ When Mrs. De Saulles failed to sa; anything more, during an interval f which every eye was fixed on the lit tle woman on the witness stand an: every ear was strained in anticipa tion of an additional statement, Jus tice Manning asked: “Is that all you have to say?” “That is all 1 remember,” came the scarcely audible reply. “When did. your senses return?’ asked the justiced “I don't know. My head was hurt {ing me terribly. 1 didn't know where 1 was, but J know now it must have been in jail. That is all | remember. Memory a biank. . The last part of the story came ir a faltering, uncertain manner, as i the speaker was striving vainly tc | Tecall something. There was a seem ingly interminable space between the words, and her tone lowered until th concluding sentence, “That is all remember,” was almost a whisper. During a brief stay in London an¢ later while they were living in New York, Mrs. De Saulles said her hus band repeatedly embarrassed her b- failing to appear at social function. which they had arranged.
