"A LINE 0' CHEER" BT JOHN KENDRICK BAN3S AX EKCOTJIfTEB. I a mother Hen today Surrounded by her chicks-A fluffy -thing with feathers gray, And full of fussy tricks. But when she deemed that I was there To work some injury Unto the youns that were her care A Fighter Bold was she! Bhe ruffled up her feathers fine, And with defiant eye She stood as on tho firing line And dared me pass her by.

'And I was glad that e'en the Hen Had not the mental twist yri find in those back-boneless men "We claw as "Pacifist." I At The Breakfast Table Good morning, Get set for thrift day. i Doing any canning yet? And this Is circus week! Did you give to the Pershing fund? times three cheers for the -Red, White and The summer "don't" is de trop. "Do" Is the tiff word now. Of course you're buying war but you can buy some more. TThat -will the elephants do if there comes a war shortage of peanuts? And you can count yourself lucky that all you have to give is money.

One of the good habits of life to encourage is the thrift stamp habit. Have you got it? But we do wish the English would keep their darned sparrows out of our war garden. "Money or your'life!" Ton give your money, but the boys "over there" "are giving their lives. A few married men flirt with other women. The other married men would it they knew how.

The price of regular beer Is Meadily advancing, and there isn't -much sociability in root beer. But why speak of potatoes as a substitute, when all the time they're the real things themselves? This is the season for canning, not for panning. Put that hammer snugly away in its velvet lined case. According to Mr. Hurley's figures, the merchant marine is growing pretty near as fast as the wheat crop.

Chicago's gas metf.r readers have go-ne on strike. Probably find too IMtle of interest in the reading matter. The allies are SUM of winning a great sea victory "if" the Hun navy comes out; but there's that big "if" in the way. First Hoover says "spare the fats," and now he says "eat pork." How in thunder are we to do both the same time? The Army and Kavy forever! And "also the aviators, the ensl- neers, the Bed Cross, and all the other fighting elements of this country. If that report of an Austro-Hun- Ijarian revolt came from anywhere but Berne, we might believe it.

But Switzerland is an operating base of German propaganda, Hindenburg seems to have lather dropped out of sight. It's Luden- dorff now. And it apparently is a case of if anybody can Ijudendorff can. and if he can't nobody can. And he sure can't.

BROWIf EYES. Bo many things there are that might be said-To say them all, were none too wise. But here's one thing I'm really bound to lady, you have beautiful brown eyes! 'Twas early evening of a day In May, Soft tints of sunset, ingcnng in the skies, Tly gaze enchanted---but only for And then, I turned and looked into your eyes. Been through a filmy haze of tender blue, I saw the distant emerald peaks arise; Jlethought they lovely seemed, and then I ttrrned. To note again the beauty of thine eyes.

It is one of the unfortunate factors in the Democratic party of this city that it is not in shape lo take advantage of the division clearly existing- in the Republican ranks, it is true that division docs not appear very strongly because there is nothing around which it can gather. But it is there just the same. Many is the Republican today in Bridgeport who has a feeling of shame and disgust as he contemplates the straits to which the party has come, compared with what it was in the a when it'had real issues other than the spoils office or the pelf that is possible to pick up by pandering to special elements. there any doubt what the response would be in Bridgeport if the local Democrats could present to the voters a strong ticket such as the party had in other clays, standing upon a platform that demanded unfaltering support of President Wilson as he prepares to place this country in the van in the fight for democracy that is to come? We do not believe there would be much question about the outcome of the voting this fall if a legislative ticket were presented which invited the confidence of every independent voter in the city along the lines indicated. There are hundreds, possibiy thousands, of Republicans who do not care to train with the existing machinists and their bosses.

But they will not leave their party simply to make a change and put those in control who are known to have traded very elements which are most repugnant to the better class of Republicans. What is wanted is a straightforward, clean-cut presentation of Democratic ideas, as represented by Woodrow Wilson, with candidates who really mean to follow where the President leads. One would think the Democrats of Bridgeport could see the advantage of getting together on such a plan. With the machine "Republicans sneering at Governor Hoi- comb, solely because he will not recognize their bosses and take his orders from them after they have broken promises-and we know they break promises, as the profit of the ice trust discloses--who can blame the Governor for having nothing to do with them? Decent Republicans resent the sneers. Now is the Democratic opportunity.

"BIPP" POSSIBILITIES. In addition to many other things, this war is opening up the mysteries of science in many directions, and in no way more than in surgery and medicine. Even in the midst of death new ways of saving life are discovered. Among the latter is an antiseptic which is to add a word to the medical part of the dictionary. This word is "bipp." This word stands for a combination of bismuth, iodoform and paraffin paste, and in the first letters of these four words you have the new life saver of tremendous healing powers.

Some extraordinary results have been obtained in the use of this new ''wonder of surgery," as it is called, and if half the accomplishments accredited to it' are true then "wonder" is surely the proper word to apply. The discovery of this important and most valuable composition is Dr. Rutherford Morrison, the famous operative surgeon. It is pointed out by a correspondent of the New York Sun that "bipp" exercises a strange charm upon the treatment of dangerous wounds. The correspondent tells of a marvelous case treated in a London hospital.

A piece of shell penetrated a soldier's chest and diaphragm, passing into the abdominal cavity. The terrible injuries healed without ill consequences, the track of the missile being excised and the wound sutured after a thbrough application of "bipp." This case is but a sample of many. And not only is this combination useful in wounds, but it does wonders after gas gangrene has set in. depriving that outcome of its chief terrors, since the germs of this infection cannot live in "bipp In describing the use of "bipp" the correspondent says: "By the new process the destroyed tissues and infected areas are excised, the parts thoroughly drenched with pure spirit, and after the application of a thin layer of 'bipp' the wound can in many cases be sown up immediately with every prospect of primary union and no further distress to the patient." Surely is not altogether without some recompense, especially for future generations, when such things come out of it. AS TO O'LEARY.

Jerry O'Leary has been captured. He sprang into the limelight with a publication called "Bull." Through it he gave vent to hatred of the English, while subtle appeals were made for sympathy to the German. Most of us thought him but another of the harmless extremists who had lost his bearing's through hatred of Britain and who felt that freedom could come to Ireland through Germany, the foe of the free, especially as their gold fanned the feeling. Then O'Leary's light went out suddenly, and in this way: He wrote a letter to President Wilson asking Mr. Wilson to take note of the rebuke given his party at the polls, and suggesting that it was due to partiality to Britain.

He asked President Wilson what he was going to do about it. To which the master of the written word replied: "I should be deeply mortified to have you or anyone like you vote for me. As you have access to so many disloyal Americans and I have not, will you convey my sentiments to them." And down went O'Leary amid the guffaws of a nation. However, that was not all. His name and face were posted throughout the United States in company with a couple of German prisoners escaped from an internment camp.

There was a price on his head and a penalty, even of death, may follow if proven guilty of the treason charge. It is a. long way from the heights of presidential correspondence to a price upon one's head for treason. But with O'Leary it seems to have been a sure and swift way. President Wilson had something up his sleeve for O'Leary even when that worthy was bluffing the President of the United States and thinking that he was succeeding.

CHARGE IT TO LUDENDORFF. First it was the kaiser's battle, this drive of I91.fi. Then when the opening attack failed of its objective the second effort was called the Crown Prince's battle. Now a that, too, failed to accomplish the expected, word comes via The Hague that Ludendorff alone planned the whole affair. In April we read this celebrated general outlined to the kaiser and Hindenburg and others the whole triumphant, scheme.

He had detected the spot in the line where the Allie: were weakest. That is, he had discovered this weakness on paper. The report ghcs Ludendorff the "whole credit" for this mighty battle! Is this latest assignment "passing the buck" because of prospective a i looks like it. woulfl never do to have the kaiser or the Crown Prince responsible in these days for a i but complete triumph. The Crown Prince came out of the Verdun engagement badly discredited.

A Mich event and the HohenzoJlenis would be undone. But it is plain to be seen a in i i the "whole credit" lo Ludendorrf the k.usu- and the Prince are stepping from under. Thc next news to be a to the people of a is that LudciulorlT a a slight a i i a error, and a the people prepare fur more sacrifices, with a great and i a cffurt, say about Devens Officer Killed when He Hits Live Wires Lieut. Bottoms, Gaurding Germans, Dies Trying to Fix Electric Lights. CAllP DEVENS, ATER, 17 A.

Bottoms, commander ol' the puiircl over the 300 interned Germans in this camp, was olep- ti-oeutccl when lie touched a carrying- volts, Sat day nisliL, near tlis enemy alien stockade at Bolton. The stockade in which the Germans are interned is illiantly lighted at night and Satuicloy night tlie lights went out. The entile guard ordered out and posted abo'iit the stockade to prevent the escape oC any oC tho piis- oners. Tho officers started an investigation and all the fuses were inspected. Couldn't Find Source.

They weio nimble to fine! tho source ot! the trouble, and while Lieutenant Edwarris to find a telephone, Lieutenant Boltoms and a scigeant continued their hunt J.or the break in the electric circuit. Bottoms climbed a pole just beyond the stockade and in reaching np in the daik- ness placed his hind upon one of the wires i-imnmj? into a trans- loriner. He died instantly and his body fell at tho of tlie sergeant, hose attempts to resuscitate him were fruitless. The German sailors are ctuar- tcied on one of the laigc army farms about eight miles from this ramp and the stocadc sots back hree-quartcrs oC a mile from three roads with all approaches shut oft' by aimed guards, whose orders eome direct from "Washir.g- on through their comraancling officer. All persons arc barred from the v'icmity of the stockade except with the permission of the olfieer in charge and the reason for tho sudden pxtins'uisliing- of tlis lights about the stockade was not made by the authorities.

Lieutenant Bottom's homo was in Texarkana, Texas, and lie was a sergeant in the regular armv for 23 years. At the outbreak of the war he was commissioned a lieutenant in the national army. His body will be sent to Texas and will be buried with full military honors.

Apparently tobacco is one of our necessities, and more so now than ever before; tobacco consumption has increased greaily since the war began. This is partly duo 10 our prospentv, of which smoking- a always been a most sensitive barometer, and partly to the tremendous domand for smolus on the a i of tlie soldiers.

No gilt Is more welcome in tho ticnches (nan that of smoking tobacco. This great increase the use of tobacco lias broiigJi! up again DIP oil-discussed but never' settled question of how much harm smoking docs to the health. It has been suggested that the affliction known as "soldiers heart" might be due to excessive cigarette smoking, and an i i i into 1he maltei- has been made bv the Medical He- search committee. Th'p inquiry, like nearlv all others that been made into the effects ot smoking, gave somewhat inconclusive results. cidcd that ex cigarettes is a contributory eaiue of heart trouble.

A number of cigaiette brockets were examined, a it was that the only ones not affected to some extent by practice were those who did not inhale. Jt was theieforc determined to warn soldiers against inhaling and excessive smoking. Eru'Iless J''or the rest, endless- evidence- may be gathered for each side of the- argument. Many eminent mon, like Dr. ITarvev Wiley, arc firmly convinced that smoking i i i others are equally sine thut it is not.

The fact that insurance companies do not take m- tci account smol-nn? as a factor in longevity is cited proof that it docs not shorten life. Tlie i ol lobacco are also fond of pointing out that men of high achievement of every age and i from Sh- Walter Raleigh to Uncle Joe Cant on, have been heavy and that many of these have been conspicuous examples of health and longevitv as well as of ability. The gist of the matter seems-to that smoking is an individual problem; each one must determine f.ir himself how much he can in- ilge i harm to himself. It also seems to he clear that few men can face life without some i of narcotic comforter--some- iti'ns to stimulate thoir dreams make them forget their troubles. Man Jias never been free of this need.

In all tribes and nations, in all ages, some narcotic has been used to soothe and to stimulate. Tobacco is perhaps thp least a i that can he chosen. Such, at least, seems to be the tacit verdict of civilization. It is interesting to note that the tendcncv of civilized man is to use milder and milder forms of tobacco. This seems to be not he- cause he craves less nicotine, but because his pampered stomach and nerves will no longer support the heroic smokes and chews- of earlier generations.

Dr. W. W. Garner. Hie tobacco expert of tho Bureau of Plant Industry, has recently been making some researches into the early history of tobacco in till- country, and has found that the tendency toward the use of milder leaf can he traced from the earliest HUMS.

Thus the Indians raised and smoker! a tobacco which wns no less than ten per cent, nicotine .18 against the (wo or three Per nc'iil of most modern tobacco.
