Questions With Answers by the
Writer Who Asks Them.
Gentle reader, if you are a young
man of military age do you feel that
you could-stand in your place in a
•quad trench and do your duty as mu-
zhiks and other peasants of monarchi
cal Europe have frequently done? My
own opinion of you is that you could
not, and my opinion has tbe strength
of a conviction. I do not care whether
you are a clerk or a college professor, a
lawyer or a laborer.
Supposing you were advancing in
open order of attack and bed reached a
point where, with your captain killed,
your platoon commander wounded,
your Une, unable to go forward, was
lying in tbe open and your only chance
for Ufe was to find tbe range of tbe
enemy and shoot at him so correctly
that he in turn could no longer shoot
correctly at you. Would you listen to
tbe order* of your corporal? Would
you take tbe range he gave you, care
fully adjust your sight and fire every
•hot as carefully aa If you were trying
to ring a cane at Coney Island or make
a new step In a dance?
No; you could not do it, and. faiUng
to do it, you would be killed by some
peasant of the type that you see work.

The vilest smelling drug known to
the chemists la called cacodyl. It Is a
combination of one atom of arsenic
with two atoms of methyl. It was first
made in 1760 by Cadet de Gassicourt,
but Bunsen gave It Ita name, which has
three roots—cac. meaning vile; od.
emitting odor, and yl, substance, the
substance emitting a vile odor.
Dr. Douglass W. Montgomery of San
Francisco has this to say about It in
tbe Journal of tbe American Medical
Association:
“Our forefathers Imagined sulphur
compounds to be the worst smelling
things and so, in creating a hades,
plentifully supplied It with them. In
comparison, however, with the produc

Gootho on Books.
It is with books as with new ac-
quaintances. At first we are delighted
if we find we agree in a general way,
if we feel a friendly Influence upon any
of tbe chief sides of our existence. It
Is only upon closer acquaintanceship
that tbe points of difference become ap
parent. and then the value of reason
able conduct Ues not in shrinking back
at once, as is often the case with chil-
dren, but in bolding fast to tbe things
in which we agree and arriving at a
clear understanding about the things
in which we differ, without on that ac
count wishing to come to an agreement
upon them.—Goethe.

A Cargo Hard to Handle.
Asphalt is said to be the most diffi
cult cargo for a vessel to unload. The
asphalt is taken out of the asphalt
lakes in Trinidad in a semifluid state
and by tbe time tbe vessel reaches a
northern port has hardened, so that to
unload it It is necessary for the men to
go into the hold and dig it out with
pick and shovel. This takes time, and
a vessel carrying such cargo always
has to arrange for a considerable stay
in port
