Smelter Foreman Made Great Gain SAYS HIS FRIENDS THOUGHT HE COULD NOT RECOVER. "I already have gained thirty-two pounds on Tanlac and now everybody is amazed at my wonderful recovery", was the remarkable statement by W. D. Jones, foreman on the feed floor of an El Paso, Texas, ?melter. "About eight months ago," he continued, "I was taken down with what was called Malaria. Then my stomach got in a terrible fix, and o+ritnt K++1/* T oof fn "form in lumps in my stomach. I hav^ gone as long as three days without eating, except a glass of milk. I developed a frightful case of rheumatism in my arms, nepk and shoulders. Though I tried everything I heard of,. I steadily grew worse until I was helpless. I do not believe slept three hours out of the twentyfour, and what/ sleep I did get did aot rest me. "I dropped down in weight from >ne hundred and sixty pounds to )ne hundred and eighteen pounds? iust a frame of skin and bones? ind had spent over two hundred Iollars for treatment.

His Democratic Ways, and Courage In the Face of Danger, Have Greatly Endeared Him to Both Soldiers and Citizens. The war has cast some kings down from their thrones and held up others to the scorn of the world. But it has also made some honored and beloved, not by their own people only but by millions of the citizens of other countries. King Albert of Belgium is one; King Victor of Italy is another. Victor has not the imposing presence and heroic bearing of Albert, but his soul has risen nobly to the occasion. The extreme democracy of Italy, says Mr. Herbert Vivian In "Italy at War." has alwavs emressed itself in the freest criticism of the monarchy. During the agitation of May, 1915, when toany persons feared that Italy might shrink from war, the name of King Victor Emmanuel III was frequently taken in vain. The press published impudent caricatures and openly accused him of being swayed by Austrian sympathizers. Poor little man! So small, and rather alone! He has a splendid wife, worthy daughter of the old lion of Montenegro, and he finds much homely happiness In his sturdy family. But he has been the subject of many slights and much indifference; indeed, only in Italy is it known how near he was exiled in May, 1915. But the time for pity has gone by, and the king is now by far the most popular man in the kingdom. He is almost a dwarf, with a colorless face slightly bronzed by the elements, a crisp, manly voice, and a way of laugh in? with Ms eyes, tie sranus erei-i, with his short legs wide apart. His hair is beginning to grow gray, and there are furrows on his forehead and beside his mouth, yet he bears himself like a young man, walking fast and never tiring. He speaks little and simply, alwayo to the point, looking men straight in the eyes and awakening x strong feeling wherever he goes. He buzzes about the battle front In a little gray motor, without escorts, and with no precautions for his safety. He sleeps little and cares not where; he is quite happy in an Alpine hilt or on straw. His fare is of the simplest? a little cold meat, bread, cheese and chocolate?and he !s always ready to share it with the nearest soldier. He says "Tu" to everyone in a fatherly way, and welcomes familiarity from the soldiers. They treat him as one of themselves, bet none have ever taken advantage of his good nature. He laughed heartily when an old soldier called out to him: "Nay, majesty, what be doing here? This is no place for thee. Get thee gone at once!" He interests himself In all the men he meets. "Dear me," he says, "what a lot of post cards! Are they all for sweethearts? Give them to me and I will send them with my own letters. tViirirro nof ho (^plflvprl " UUV.U ouvuiu 1/v ? "Why do you look so glum? No news from your family? Cheer up! I'll send a wire for you to Inquire." The soldiers see him praying with glistening eyes over a dying comrade. "For your majesty," gasped a dying soldier as he stretched out his arms. "Not so, my son," was the grave reply, "for Italy." Another Incident that happened on the battle-front gives a picture of the king's courage. In tho mMst of shell fire a lieutenant who had J'allen, mortally wounded, called a soldier, gave him a few keepsakes to convey to his family and then ordered him to fly. But the soldier tried to carry the lieutenant to a place of safety. Some gunners called to him through the in fernnl fire: "Save yourself! Save yourself!" But still he remained. In the distance a motor horn could be heard, and^the whisper went round that the king had left the field. The soldier still struggled with the officer's body, but tfce lieutenant died in his arms. Flinging himself on the corpse, the youni; fellow exclaimed with tears: "Even the king has gone away!" Then a hand touched his shoulder. Tie shook himself, rose and stood at attention. "My dear boy," said the king, "the car has gone, but the king Is still with you." And there he remained till the end of the day. Enemy Son of British Princess. Claremont, the fine old mansion and property at Esher, in England, where the greatly lamented and once tremendously popular Princess Charlotte, daughter of George IV, spent her married life, lias been turued into a girls' school under the pressure of war. The duchess of Albany owns it now, whose son, the duke of Saxe-Coburg Gotha, is married to a niece of the German emperor, and is in the war against us. There is a pretty strong feeling in England against permitting him to inherit the beautiful property at his mother's death. The Horrors of War. "This war is dreadful!" "Why, what's the matter now?"

Services of Aviation Expert, Before * His Untimely Death, Were of the ' Greatest Value to the Coun> try He Loved. i The men whom we could least spare, I "and there are none we would willingly spare, are the men who are giving ? \ their lives to stem the fury of the German onslaught, writes F. H. Simonds in American Review of Reviews. j ^ It is this thought which must be in the mind of all who knew Col. | T?~Ar\n^ fA fVic\ annmV I I\ajiiUI \j. ?JUiliLi?, ucau #.v vuv vuvm^ In the early days of the great German offensive in March. Among all the Americans who felt and foresaw the coming of this war to our own j country, none with clearer vision or S( more instant response set himself to I a the task, alike of preparing himself e and of striving to persuade his fellow-countrymon to prepare themselves. He chose for his work the aviation branch and for the fhree years, while the war was still remote and meaningless to millions of people T on this side of the Atlantic, he devoted his life to study and to practical n training in flying. V When at last the war came, no p American of his age counted greater j , material success or was richer in the j things men sacrifice for an ideal, than | Colonel Boiling. General solicitor for 3\ the United States Steel corporation, q respected and honored in the legal ^ profession for his attainments and his promise, recognized as tne one whose influence and power for use- C fulness in the future was to be great, \ happy in a home which gave him all ^ that a man can hope to receive on this side of his life, Colonel Boiling ? .laid aside all of these things to re- i G spond to the call of his country, not j j only willingly hut ready trained for g practical service. For those who knew him and loved him the tragedy of his death, a S death which all who knew his daring j spirit, the unfailing response it made ^ to every challenge of Ganger and difficulty foresaw, does not lie in the' fact that he met the death he ex- I pected and they expected for him. jy Rather it is found in the realization that a man who might have done so much more in aiding his country and " his countrymen to prepare for the E w/\r*l rfi'iirrrrlr\ xt'linca com*!r?nc? \V?>rr* cn l. 1CU1 Oil ?? uvoc OV4 ?

Penny postage, which disappeared ' _ at midnight Sunday, June 2, was one ' of the great triumphs of peace, and ' succumbed only to the demands of ^ war. Although the price has gone, the C principle remains, and nothing has been a truer index to the march of ^ | progress than the penny stamp. Its * first use in 1840 for inland postage ^ amounted almost to h revolution. That E date fixes the "great divide" between ]\ the old postal systems and the new. The-penny stamp, probably more than 4 any other influence, exercised a power * in holding together the scattered bonds j of kinship and acquaintance through- ^ ' out the far-flung British empire, and , as a factor in imperial trade it provided the facilities upon which modern ^ : trading depends. I. Many years ago King Edward, then ]; 1 prince of Wales, said he looked for- j c ward with hope to the day when every > English-speaking man, in whatever | ^ part of the world he might be, should j l | be regarded as being as much an Eng-1 tj ' lishman, so far as the penny post was j ^ concerned, as if he lived in Kent or Sussex. C E Origin of "Crater." A The word "crater," from tho hole! ^ made by a mine and afterward fought j j for, has thoroughly estahliehed itself j in the language of the trenches. It is, ^ highly obvious and inevitable borrow- j G ing from the volcano. : e But the volcano itself took the word ' j from the original "crater"?the mix- j ing bowl (from the verb meaning to | mix), in which the Greeks from the ] L earliest known times, mingled water: j\ with tho wine that they seldom eared ! i or dared to drink neat. i _ These craters, which stood in con- ' , spicuons positions in the hall, were ; F often of huge size, and the resem- j blance to them of the volcano's orifice ' ^ struck all ancient observers, who vsed j the word "crater" in the modern vol-1 canic sense.
