Few of the men who huve given their Uvea to the air have met a more lm rOsslve ond than the handsome, jfold-rn-halrrd yoiinsa'ui.tiiMPXiitnlc I'allfe llirwiis the favorite pilot during the wnr of MuJ. (iiilirlt-1 il'Aniitiiizlo. tho lliillan poet who begune one of the greatest airmen. s a I'ulll evidently had motor trouble when rli3it over tho AIM. Willi ex traordinary skill he lnmleil his oiarhine on a Binder fi.tiUO feet li-li. Getting out of it unhurt, lie sinned to efcnb down the mountain side. Anostono soon set In around lilin. hut on he ploil deil through the floundering drifts to wards Uie little .village of Hourg St. Mnrltz, -in the valley below. For a weiote day'-nt least he stumbled for ward, without food and pierced by the bitter 'cold. 44 Then, when he was 2iK yards.from a mounlalu hut,- anil w ithin sight- of the Alpine village, his strength guve out and he sank down Into the snow. His courage urged him to another ef fort; the snow wns found with the marks of his struggles to rise again. But he could do no more, and there, two days later, n passing, peasant found the gallant young Italian pilot lying with his head on his arm as If asleep, half-covered by the snow, and without a bruise on his body. So did the Alps which be had con quered revenge themselves upon Na tale l'alli, who bad escaped death in 140 raids over the enemy lines in war. EASY TO IMPROVE MEMORY Whole Secret Is to Concentrate the Mind Entirely on the One Thing in Hand. People nf poor memory nre general ly Inattentive and full to concentrate. Systems like Pet munis... help to poml memory In that they focus the mini, on the thing at htnui. Dreamers rend, and for the life of them cannot tell what the last sentence was, unless It wns something In which they were vividly Interested waking them out of their dream, and then It Is fixed for pood, thus showing (hat memory is conditioned on attention and concen tration. IV cure this r ipiires herol? trontment. Make it n religious resolve to attend only to the tiling In hand. If It Is reading, concentrate on the hook so thoroughly Hint every sen tence takes clearly deliued meaning in the mind. One cannot think of some thing else and nt the siiuie time un derstand anil remember what he Is reading. The trick in the panic of memory Is to overcome dreaming, alt straction, Inattention. It can he done hy persistent, patient, long-conllnueil effort. Getting Acquainted With America. The United Stales Ins been getting the greatest advertising during the last two yearn that any nation has ever received, and the results of this Fhould be reaped in foreign trade. Just as any merchant obtained custom from an advertising campaign. Since the beginning of the war there has been a steady stnuiih of foreign missions on tour in the I'nited S Mites, liended by men of prominence in their respective countries. They have vis ited the shipyards, the steel mills, the camps and the industrial cities, nnd they huve seen the miles of fertile farm lauds and gained new concep tion of the vnsiness of America nnd Its ability to put over bjg things on a big scale. A convention of the League of Nations In Washington will add still more to this world knowledge of America's resources. The chief thing now to be sought is the holding of the advantage gained.

In the days before the war the castle of Siiaudau, xomo eight in II m north- a west of Berlin, was famous as the of- J ficinl reposltoryOof the German warji clt. In the Julius tower of the ens-fj tie was tored some fti,UUO,U0O nuirlSji In gold, the money hefrg part of tliuj war Indemnity paid by Kmce In 1871. 1 There it was kept "for tin purpose of;, Immediate use In ciee of war." What ' J happened to Ibis gold reserve In 'Mil Is not known, but in interesting slde-IJ light Is thrown on the great treasure i chest by the account which has .lust j J come to hand fsuii Berlin describing i how some LM.lKHl.tlOO. lei was reTonlyj abstracted from the "citadel at Span- j I dau." during the disturbances which J followed the .signing of the armistice..! The money, which was part of the, amount hurriedly removed from Roil-' nianla wh.n that country wns evneu ated, wns lodged In the citadel "he cause there was no room for It In the Julius tower." Now, w hat the outside world Is Interested to know Is: Was this ltouniaulan money crowded out of the Julius tower because the Julius tower was already tilled to overflow ing wllh specie? To he sure it was a large sum that claimed aduil'sslon, no less than .r)0,0on,too lei, but then any one who knows the Julius tower knows that It Is a luryo place.

Among the war inventions that prob ably will prove valuable In peace time is a magazine hypodermic syringe that may be used -0 times without re tilling.
