According to "The Accountant’.’
a financial journal printed in Lon
don. a stock speculator was asked
to explain the measure of his par
ticular success. This is his an
swer: “Very simple. I pay for
something 1 can't get with money 1
haven’t got and then sell what 1
never hao for more than it cost."

try through thick and thin, cables
us tha. there can be no pe-aco until
Prussian militarism is crushed.
Why modify it by saying "Prus
sian.” There can be no peace un
til all kinds of navalism are wiped
out. And that looks a long time
away. ____
Americans who now travel on
the high seas surely realize that
the risk is all their own. The pres
ent situation demands that no
American citizen put himsel.f in
jeopardy or make it harder for his
government by needlessly .and
heedlessly taking passage forl:.u
rope. War has not been decl ined,
but the submarine is no respector
of persons or diplomatic corre
spondence.

The joke will be on the Germ ans
if they disabled their interned
ships, as they are reported to b.ave
done in the Philippines, and 'then
war with America fails to come.
This would mean tha\ at end of tl^e
war the merchant f ,eet which Ger
many will desperately need for im
porting food anr^ raw materials will
be laid up a b year or more in
American fp ts for repairs. These

*oigns th? .t Germany intends to
bring on the war.
It was to be expected that Pres
ident Wilson would not have the
undivided support of congressmen
and senators in the recent crisis.
Such is the story history hands
down to us. No president has
gone before the country in the face
of war without' opposition in the
legislative branch of the govern
ment. Mr. Lincoln’s worst ene
mies were not aligned against him
in the uniforms of confederate
soldiers. They were found in the
North, some of them holding high
positions of trust and honor. No
schoolboy can forget Horace Gree-j
lee'e constant agitation agamstthe,
war in the darkest days of that
conflict and his reiterated insist
ence in his influential newspaper
that “the war is a failure.”

Why Best for Babies?
'‘Granny” Chamberlain „, , , j t /-m t i • . r' i
1 am often asked why Chamberlain s Cough
Remedy is best for babies. Well, there are several reasons:
First: It is perfedtly harmless and can be given with every
confidence to the youngest or most delicate child. *
Secondly: It contains no alcohol, opium, chloroform, mor
phine or any other narcotip.
Thirdly: Children like it, and no persuasion is needed to
get them to take it. %
For the above reasons alone it is impossible to get a better
medicine for babies than
Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy
But aside from its safety it relieves coughs and colds, is the
best remedy known for croup, and when given as soon as the
croupy cough appears it will even prevent the attack.”

Old Idea of Gulf Stream,
Once Taught in Schools,
* Changed by Later Study
It Is only by speaking loosely thnt
the skippers of several incoming ships
cnn say, as reported, that the presence
of many shurks along the coast was
due to a shifting of the Gulf stream.
What they mean was that the northeast
drift of warm water is greater than
usual, broader, perhaps, or closer in
shore, or possibly a degree or two high
er in temperature than is customary at
this time in this latitude, says the New
York Sun.
The Gulf stream as a distinct cur
rent cannot be identified north of the
thirty-second parallel of latitude, which
it crosses between the Bermudas and
the Carolina coast. There it divides
into small streams. The westerly winds
blow upon it and break up its surface.
Its warm waters become mixed with
the colder ocean and it becomes an ele
ment of the northeast. At the same
time the warm currents are recogniza
ble as far north as 40 degrees latitude,
a trifle south of New York; beyond 40
degrees north and 00 degrees west
longitude no test of temperature, salt
ness, color or motion serves to distin
guish them from the rest of the ocean
drift.
Who does not remember having it
Impressed on. him in his schooldays
that the ministrations of the gulf
stream alone made habitable the Brit
ish Isles? It is not true, as patient
study has shown. The southwest
winds bring moisture from the ocean
to Kurope, and this great blanket of
moist air contains much more latent
heat than dry air at the same temjlbr
ature. From the moist air come
clouds, fogs and rain, which condense
heat and water upon the Old World
and prevent the loss of ground heat i
by radiation. That is why there is
such a striking difference in temper- j
atures upon a single line of latitude
cutting the two continents.
While the warm water flows north- ;
east from the Mexican gulf the cold
water on the north is finding its way
southwesterly, deeper down. When
the cold current strikes the tropical
zone it becomes hented nnd rises to
flow northeast again. The Gulf of
Mexico is like the coll of pipe in a
gns water heater; it supplies intense
heat in a small area and adequately
tempers half the seas.
