FORGOTTEN LANDMARKS, Our Revolutionary patriarchs are receding into an etent history. It is 172 years to-day since George Wash- ington was born, and the distance in fact is incompara- bly greater than the distance in time. ‘When Washington was President he regarded the! « Union as a safeguard against “those overgrown military | « establiehments which under any form of government are “ inauspicious to liberty, and which are to be regarded as pertiquiarly hostile to republican liberty.” It did not, cour to him that the time would come when united America, relieved by its strength from any fear of at- | tack, would spend nearly $200,000,000 a yer on military | & ‘and neve! preparations for aggression. “Observe good faith and justice toward all nations,” @ald Washington, at 2 time when the Republic of Co-| : lombia did not yet exist. “It will be worthy of « free, emlightenet and at no distant period a great nation, to ? give to mankind the magnanimous and too novel ex- ‘ ample of a people always guided ty an exalted justice and benevolence.” Tt 1s doubtful whether our first President ever heard % the name of Manchuria.

By Nixola Greeley-Smith. E have all mot the girl who is misunderstood, and her twin sig- ter, she who does not understand, How {6 she misunderstood? Oh, in every wav! What doesn’t she under- stand? Almost everything, no matter how harmless, that is said to her. Tis girl-is afraid to express om opinion on any subject for fear she may Say soinething that will be taken ex- ception to, She shies even at the time honored topic of the weather, dreading “ thet her views on whether or not it t going to snow may be considered reva- - lutionary, In short, on every subject under the sun she ts a clam, without even that exclusive mollusk is-interesting remembering that only on the half shell. és But there ts this difference between the clam and the girl who does not understand: The clam 1s born with a shel! ~and the girl, through contact with © world where shelldl ’ are necessary, acquires one. She is therefore a more frequent product of the downs town than of the uptown world. For wi a girl lived ‘ wholly in a social atmosphe: of her lif conspire to protect her and mi @ personal shell unnecest ~ ary, Many things thet she and does as a properly -. chaperoned young woman there go uncriticised, wHich, if © subjected to the flerce and often hostile light that beath upon the downtown woman, would subject her to harsh‘ comment and posaible slander, And if circumstances make’ {( necessary for her to pass from one of these worlds to the other, her absence of shell will make itself felt im= * mediately, If she carries into a business office the expected frivolity of ballroom manners the very men who thought tt most \ charming will criticise and misinterpret and condemn {t She will talk freely and naturally and have opinions unti she finds out that she had better not. Until then she will suffer perhaps from her lack of shell, But she need not worry about not having any, for it will ” surely be develope! for her. Sometimes, indeed, It Is overs Geveloped, and from a nice, Hght-hearted little girl who is afraid of nothing, as all light-hearted little girls are apt 10.» be, she becomes the clam girl who docs not understand. ; anything for foar of being misunderstood. The clam girl 18 not funny. She cannot be criticised however much one may criticise the conditions which produce her. [: And she will exist so long as the business woman ts ret Farded a» an economle anomaly and is not taken for granted, except in ways that she would rather not be. } An Appreciation. To the Editor of The Evening World: WISH to cxpress my satisfaction to Nixola Greeley- I Smith for the clear and comprehensible fable, The Cab-. ’ bage ang the Caterpillar.” I am pretty certain that, many a reader of The Kvening World will take a lesson to himself from this very article May I still add that I be- gin to ike her writing more and more every day, as there is a certain go and snap to it. She expresses exactly and clearly the point she wants to put before the eye and mind. ERNEST HERGT, No, 472 West Twenty-fourth at, Clty, Nature’s Distillery. ‘ Chemists at one time believed that petroleum was formed in the depths of the earth by the action of water working on metallic carbons in @ state of fusion. Now that state- mont is challenged by, some geologists, who contend that petroleum is the result of putrefaction of animals which uges ago Were swallowed In enormous cataclysme, similar to that at Mount Pelee. This upheaval, says Prof, Engler, burted millions of prehistoric quadrupeds, lizards, serpents and sea monsters, and during all the cycles of years that have elapsed since then the bodies of these animals have been distilled by Mother Nature in her immense laboratory beneath the earth's face. The result of this distillation, according ¢o this theo petroleum, (onalnesgat fe Better Than the Pump. ‘That formalin may be used for ‘preserving milk without I disadvantage to the consumer ‘is shown by the recently “pub- Hahed researches of Bobring.
