If this country were to go to war with another country it is altogether vrobable that it would have to depend vpon the manufacturers of other countries to supply in part the muni- tions that would be requirea.” If this country should decide today that neu- trality required that it should not sell arms and ammunition to anyone the game rule could be applied to the Urnited States should it go to war.— Albany Journal. A Hartford man complained to the police that someé one stote his shoes while- he was in the public. library yesterday. It is not to be supposed that the thief took them from his feet. If the chap took off his own shoes, even to ease his reet, he de- gerved to lose them. In Meriden a man would not think of removing his Oxfords in the library and further- more he would not be permitted to do Still we do things differently here.—Meriden Journal. Had BEdmund Burke read the report of the Bryce committee "upon -the Belgian atrocities it is hardly con- ceivable that. he woula ngt. have amended his familiar decraration: “I do not know the method of drawing up an indictment against a whole people.”” For above and beyond all else the Bryce report is an indictment of a' whole people, and it sees the light. in theé face of circumstances which, for the neutral world, will translate it into mere corroborative testimony o2 what has recently’ happened. We Americans must inevitably ' see ' the tragedy of Louvain with the massacre of the Lusitania in the immediate background.—New York Tribune. _Will Bryan run for the presidency for the fourth time 1n 1918? His friends think -he will ana that he is in training for the nomination on the prohibition ticket, not with an expec- tation that he will be elected, but be- cause this will give him the publicity whi¢h to him has real money value. If Bryan had not been a presidential candidate his public utterances on the forum and in the press .would not have brought in a fortune of half a million. It is not to Mr. Bryon's discredit that he has been eager to secure a competency for himself, but he is fairly the subject of criticism for denouncing-others for trying to do the same.—Leslie’s. Exercise and Health. In “Exercise and Health,” an edu- cational leaflet from the United States Public Health Service, a note of warning is sounded. The death rate after the age of forty is increas- ing in spite of more sanitary modes of living and greater protection against communicable disease. The expecta- tion of life after forty is less than it was thirty years ago. This' is' due largely to increased prevaenlce of the diseases of degeneration. The muscles arteries and other organs of those who as a result of sedentary occupa- tion or indolence take too little exer- cise degenerate. Heart dicease, kid- ney disease and other ills follow. Take exercise. Take daily exercise Have a hobby that gets you out of doors. Walk to your business, to your dressmaker’s, walk for the sake of walking. Join a ‘walking club and keep your weekly score of miles. Keep chickens, make a garden, wheel the baby or play golf or any other game, but take two hours outdoor exercise every day. Gymnasium work is good for those who like it and can afford it, but avoid heavy athletics. Don’t try to be a “strong man,” the cham- plon athlete often dies young. Be a moderate, persistent, daily exponent of exercise. You may not burn the family carriage, as Benjamin Frank- lin suggested, but at least, as’he ad- vised, walk, walk, walk. The Carman Film.

McMILLAN 199-201-203 MAIN STREET monologue, and described her ex- periences and feelings in prison, and on trial. Apparently her husband consented to the scheme and they to- gether justified themselves on the ground that they needed money as the trial had cost them $35,000 or $40,000, which is more than they had. It is stated that Mrs. Carman has company and that a Cafman film has been prepared by means-of which she will earn perhaps a8 muchfand possib- 1y more than by s.ppearmg on the stage. We are not convi)ccd of the vir- tue of the manager who excluded her. The moral ground he takes is high enough to shuf, off some of the best paying artists ¥n the boards. A great many of them are trading on their potoriety. which is just what the Car- mans are trying to do. She is not a criminal. She was acquitted and is therefore innocent in the eyes of the law. BEven if she were guilty and hAd escaped by some good fortune or technicality, she would not be worse than others if, eagerly or reluctantly, she sought to make money out of her ill fame. 1f the whole bunch of people of this kind could be kept out of the public eve and people were not in- fluenced to pay money to see them, we would approve and rejoice. But the idea of making Mrs. Carman an exception while so many others are flourishing in notoriously ill-deserved prosperity seems legally unjust and morally inconsistent, ak H a cmfvbgq kiyw The Big Store’s June Sale of Homefurnishings 1 Commences Tomorrow Mommg Here Are Some of the Splendid Values--Wise, Smith & Co.,Harttord ’ . \ REFRIGERATOR SALE, Extremely special offerings, during our June Sale.
