"1 now have shaken hands twice with you." "All right. my dear lady,"* the ad miral replied, raising bis cap. "I'ui flad If meeting tlte pleases you.

Under the prophetb and Judges, Israel was a democracy. It was not until they were fascinated^ by the barbaric splendor and unrestrained li cense of the heathen nations around them that they began to be dissatisfied with their own simple ways and to long for a klrfg and a showy court. It was the lure of sin and worldly vanity. Samuel warned them against courts and kin^s and told them of what would happen, but his warnings went unheed ed. The vision of the age of peace, began as early as eight centurlerf B, O.. tint It was not until the Clftjstlan era, that the world change In the oxlsilng order fqlly dawned upon the minds of men. The Idea of a league of nations is not new. Such a league was fore shadowed by Jean Bloch, In his re* markahje book. "The Future of War." Issued 20 years ago. It was also fore seen by Emanuel Kant, who, tn his en say on "Perpetual Peace," wrote thnt the law of nations must be- based on the federation of free states. At dif ferent times leaders In national and International reform have had visions of such a lcrtigue, but always as a pos sibility of the remote future. It has remained for the United States to promulgate it at a time when tha world seems prepared to listen. Wiping Out Predatory Animals. "Touring 101S hunters of the United States department of agriculture killed 83 gray wolves In New Mexico, 34 mountain llon^, 15 stock-destroying bears, 1,860 coyotes, and 350 bobcata . we are told. These animals were killed at a total expense of $64,860. and the saving effected by their de struction, on the basis commoitly ac cepted by stockmen, amounts to $215, 050 annually. Hunting during the spring period destroys many younjr, and thus prevents Increase. Many coyotes not accounted for in the fig ures given were destroyed by poison. The killing of these animals marks a long stride In extermination of gray wolves and other predatory animals, and the saving Is cumulative for years to come. Pats the 8altt Two reporters were boasting of fhe ^ speed of their shorthand writing. "Whenever I am reporting at a meet ing on a warm evening, all the people try to get near to my table'. "Why?" asked the other. "Because," said the pen pusher, "my hand goes so fnst that It creates a current of air like a fan." "A mere nothing," said number two. "I always have to report on wet pa per, or else the current of air caused by the movement of my hand would blow It away. Resides the paper has to be wetted % every few minutes, be cause the friction caused by the rapid movements of my arm would set fire to It In no time." U*c_for Rat Skin*.
