(By Mail) The Middle West. There's a name that sticks in the craw of (Brit ish statesmen. All the rest of Amer ica the Britishers can analyze when they attempt to measure the pro or anti ally leanings of Americans. The Middle West stumps them. It isn't anti ally, but it isn't anti German, they say. What is it then? I have had this question asked me by such leading Englishmen as Sir William Tirrell and St. Joo Strachey, editor of The Spectator. An American in Eu rope for two years during the war couldn't answer the question. Here in Mercedes in the heart of the military district where middle west regiments of militia abound you shortly discover why the middle west hasn't taken sides in the European war. "So you were in the war in Europe?" a fleshy officer asks you. You'll find his type throughout the German army; also his broken English. "What side were you on?" "Both sides," you say; and he smiles. His name is F, E. ReM'ho and as brigade commander of the three Minnesota regiments he has some 2500 American soldiers under him. "Look at his face and see if he doesn't look like an Englishman," says Col. H. V. Eva of the second Minnesota regiment, into whose tent Resche has just come. "I was born in England and I know an English face when I see one," continues the Colonel. Resche laughs heartily. "Come on, come on," he says in his broken English to the Colonel, who is his inferior, "Didn't you promise me you'd ride to town with me?" So the man who was born in England and the man who was born in Germany, 'both soldiers in Uncle Sam's army, ride away together in an automobile, laughing. A British statesman puzzling over the Middle West, would have broken his thinking machine at the very sight. When Private C. H. Stingier of Lemington, Nebraska, was drowned a few days ago, Colonel George A. Eberbly of the Fourth Ne braska found a diver from the British army in his regiment who volunteered to seek the body. Kuan Zoo Lee of Korea and Kearney, Nebraska, is a member of Company L. Fourth Ne braska. Omaha and Hastings com panies have several Greeks on their rosters. 'Such men are likely to add to the neutrality -of the Middle West. In the Fourth Nebraska also is Win field Haldt, who was on the Carib, sunk by a mine in the North sea, when he and the crew, with the exception of three killed by the explosions, were picked up by lhe Germans and later released. He's a neutral type. The First North Dakotas include large numbers of Scandinavians and Col. J. H. Frayne is said to be able to give orders in the Scandinavian tongue when necessary. Two hundred and eighty Quaker cavalrymen from Iowa add a further mixture to the mixed hue of the Middle West. An English statesmen in Texas would shortly find an answer to his question as to why the Middle West is neutral. Women Rookies at "Chevey Chase." Lake Geneva , Wis., Aug. 16. Clad in khaki skirts, olive drab flan nel waists, regulation army hats and tan shoes, 150 women rookies here to day are making themselves ready "for any national emergency." The wom en are attending National Service school No. 3 of the Woman's section of the Navy league. They started the day by undergoing a course in mil itary calisthenics. They will do it before breakfast every day for two weeks. The women rookies were ready for the muscle making exercise at 6:40. Breakfast is served at 7:30, police call at 8 o'clock, inspection at 8:30. Drills, classes, lectures and en tertainment take up the remainder of the day. Taps is sounded at 9:30 p. m. Sundays the women arise half an hour later than on week days. Church at 3 p. m. is extra on Sundays. The courses include home care of the sick, knitting and plain sewing, signal work, first aid, diets for the sick, surgical dressings, plain and wireless telegraphy, automobile and ambulance driving. "The women are in earn est, too," said Mrs. Vylla Poe Wilson of Washington, who is directing the course. Mrs. Wilson and her sister, Miss Elizabeth E. Poe, were the first to think of a National Service school for women. The first was held at Chevy Chase, near Washington, in May and was such a success that San Francisco demanded one in June. A fourth school will be held in Rhodo Island some time in September. Pats On The Back Nearly Wrecked This Man A wnter in the September American Magazine says: "I have always been obsessed with a desire to be patted on the back. I am that economic hybrid, the successful failure, just escaping complete wreck by suddenly realizing the truth. The other day, just after I had been pro moted to a position of considerable importance a friend . slapped me on the back and said, "Good Boy, I knew they would appreciate your worth some day.'' His words were gall. I had held the same position more than twenty years before. I had merely v.-on back by hard work a position that in early manhood, I had achieved with out much effort.'

The Palace In Caylon In Whioh This. Ratio li Preserved. , ... , At all times of the year In Kandy, Ceylon, may bo seen followers of Bud dha making tliclr way to the treat Mahlgawa temple, the "Palace of the Sacred Tooth," In order to lny offer ings and flowers ut the shrine of the founder of their religion. Entering the temple, they pass into a small room, sonio twelve foet siuaro, In which la kept the famous tooth of Buddha. The chamber Is lighted by two lamps which have not been al lowed to go out for years. The walls are splendidly decorated, aud the ves sel culled the Karundua containing the tooth Btands on o massive silver tablo amidst a gorgeous array of Jew els and other valuable gifts. ''The Karundua is draped with mus lin, beneath which Is a silver dome studded with gems, and under this Is a dome of gold, beautifully curved aud literally incrusted with precious stones. Two similar coverings He below tueui. and beucnth these Is a small cuse of gold, in which on leaves of a gold lotus reposes tho tooth Itself. This relle, carefully guarded,' Is seldom soon by others than priests. So much In reverence Is the tooth held that to lay an offering to Buddha on the table bearing It Is an ambition which every Buddhist would not fall to gratify If circumstances permitted. Pearson's Weekly. WORK IS HEALTH. Idleness It Often the Causa of Human Disease and Decay. Work Is not the curse ur the alUlc tlon that sonio people think It Is. When taken in proper doses It Is the best of medicines. It Is now being prescribed for ninny forms of Invalidism, such as heart disease, Brlght's disease, nerv ousness nnd particularly for Insanity. The lack of work Is often the cause of ninny chronic maladies, and It Is a wise physician who can determine when one needs work instead of rest and In prescribing the remedy produce no unpleasant situations. About tho most unhoalthful person, as well as the most unhappy and use less. Is the persou with nothing to do. Work Is a dlspeller of fears. It Is the exercise that Is ns essential to tho body and mind as arc food and air. It Is only when work Is carried to excess that It becomes Injurious, as In the case with food, rest and all good thlugs. The Ideal of a healthy, happy life Is no longer a world where work Is not necessary and llfo is one grand sweet song of Idleness. Life Is activity; In the broad sense It Is work work that produces and entails sncrltlce. It Is not less work that we need, but work In the right proportions nnd under the right conditions. Such work Is health. North Carolina Health Bulletin. The Oasis of Jupiter. The oasis of Siva is better known as the oasis of Jupiter Amnion, one of the most famous oracles of antiquity. Tho visit of Alexander the Great to this temple was among the most romantic Incidents of his career. lie came to ask whether be was only tho son of the mortal Philip or the son of the great god himself. Apparently Alex ander received full assurnuee from the oracle of his divine origin, with the promise f unbroken victory until he should be taken away to Join tho gods. And mnny signs showed his superhu man status. Rain fell In the desert Just when his soldiers' thirst required It, and when his guides lost their way two speaking serpents or ravens ap peared to direct them. London Chron icle. ' Took It aa a Joka. There Is a story of Mr. Disraeli at the time of his extremely bumptious youth when ho hnd Just returned from his travels In the east As a young man, mueh under thirty, be met Lord Melbourne, who was then prime min ister, at dinner. Lord Melbourne pro ceeded to dlscourso on the eastern ques tion, but Instead of listening to the prime minister with the respect which he ought young Disraeli said, "It seems to me that your lordship has taken your knowledge of the east from The Arabian Nights.' " Some prime ministers would have snubbed the young man severely. Lord Melbourne was not of that kind. He rubbed his hands with great cheerful ness nnd said to the young man, "And a devilish good place to take It froml" Perverted Proverb. Strike while the Ire Is hot The more waist the less speed.
