' tory of the world. the days of the

gold rush in California when the
ends of the north poured their
hordes into the state and put an
end to the reign of the old Spanish
families. Not alone is it a drama.

The triumphant vaudeville show

ing damages from the trades pecp..le
The existence of this gentlemen and
his "skin game" was revealed by E
I. v inden. vice-president of the

’London and Counties Retell Fruit-

crera end Fiorists' association.

Mr. Vinden also disclosed that so
many damage claims. honest as well
as spurious, are made sgsinst fruit
dealers that they have entered into
a novel insurance scheme which pro-
tools them against claims up to 10.-

000 pounds.

The banana skin lives up to its
traditions as a. menace to pedestrians,
but Mr. Vinden pointed out that
orange pips also are famous for up-
setting people. while there are real
risks in spinach and cabbage and
even a tiny been contains enough
son to cause a. hard fall.

The frulterers' insurance covers
not only falls. but also protects the
dealers in the case of claims arising
from ptomaine poisoning and even
from suits over the testing of a

the church ritual. The Queen and
other ladies of the palace attend in
simple dress and wear no hats. 1’or
they are at home and are lust as in-

Radiation is the source of life‘and

ed, to the theory of Georges Lake
llOVIkY. laid before the Academy of
Sciences by Professor d'Areonvei.
Life, according to this thesis. ends
when the vibration of rays is inter-
rupted.

One of the facts that M. Lakho.
vsky cites in support-of his theory
is the sense of direction in migra-
tery birds. He says that insect;
larvae, and plants on which these
birds live. sent out. rays into space
Just as all living matter does. Ml-
grstory birds. he says, are supplied
with organs which allow tls‘cm to‘
receive these rays Just as the anteri-
nne of a wireless post intercepts
waves or as the human eye takes
in waves of light. The birds steer
toward their food.‘ guided by the
rays that it emits. with the same
certainty that human beings move

The marshals of France over 70
years of age are in danger of ice-
ing their active jobs. The \‘iar Min-
istiy is considering a measure for

rejuvenation of the whole army
sla f. and in order to milks nay for
younger officers in staff and in-
spection work it is necessary to get
rid of some of the older men. The
measure under consideration would
retire Marshals Joffrc. Foch Lym-
tey and Fnyolie.

These Marshals. as well as Persia
and Frunchct d‘Eaperey. are sup-
posedlyln active service. Each of
them has some task of'lnspectien
to perform and each has his own
personal stuff. Petein and Frenchet
d'Espercy. however. are the only
ones who have important posts. The
former is designated Commander
in Chief of the army in case of
war and the second is designated to
command a group of armiesi.

If the retirement of .loffre, Foch.
Fayoile and Lyautey is decided up-
on. the .whole war council will be
revised. as they are ex~officle mem-
bers so long as they are in active
service. Younger officers will be
named to succeed them. though it
is rcported on excellent authority
that General Sarrall, who himself
reaches the fetal age of severity in
April. will be one of the chosen.
even though he can serve (only a
brief moment. This satisfaction is
demanded by his political friends as
compensation for his recall from
the post of High Commissibner in
Syria.
