THE German army has always been considered the most perfect fighting machine In the world, but now Colonel Gaedke, an eminent military expert, discovers that it is laboring under an almost fatal weakness Germany, he says, is developing her industrial activities and her schools of applied science at the expense of her military spirit. The ranks of the army, of course, are kept filled by the compulsory service laws, but the regiments cannot obtain their full complement of subalterns. Every effort is being made by the military authorities to correct this state of affairs and the schoolboys are given such training as may breed In them the desire to become army officers. Our photograph shows a detachment of these youthful soldiers from the Berlin schools.

WOMAN IS FOUNDER

First Savings Bank Instituted by Miss Priscilla Wakefield. Missouri Man Digs Boms Interesting Fact* Regarding Origin of Saving* Institution*—Lived in Parish of Tottenham. Kansas City,’ Mo.—The fact that a woman, Mis* Priscilla Wakefield, was the founder of the first savings bank among English-speaking people was one of the interesting thing* which W. S. Webb, cashier of the Missouri Savings association bank of Kansas City, mentioned in an address before the members of the local chapter of the American Institution of Banking at their regular weekly meeting the other night “There has b,een a great deal written to prove when and where savings banks originated,” said Mr. Webb. “A French writer has asserted the idea originated with Hugh Delestra in 1610; an Austrian author has insisted the first one was founded in Brunswick in 1675, and similar Institutions are said to have been founded in Hamburg in 1798, in Berne in 1787 and in other cities of the continent of Europe at different dates. "No one can go very far with his Investigations of the origin of the savings bank idea until he is brought face to face with the somewhat startling sact —there was a woman at the bottom of it. “We find women today who have risen to be the actual heads of banks; but their work has been easy compared to the efforts of Miss Priscilla Wakefield, who blazed the way for all women—and men, too—in starting the first English savings bank. This remarkable woman lived in the parish of Tottenham, Middlesex county, England. She founded her bank in 1798.” J After speaking of the beginning of the savings banks in America Mr. Webb discussed conditions with ret-

Sees the Mosquito’s End

New Jersey Bugologist Gives Cheering New* of Great import—U*a< Device for Oiling. Newark, N. J. —The end of the mosquito is in sight. That statement Is official It comes from the state’s bugologist and archenemy of the enemy of man, Prof. John B. Smith. And when Professor Smith says the end is in sight he does not mean the business end, but both ends and the middle and all o? the pest for the peaceful, law-abiding tgxpaying, homeloving people of New Jersey. It came out in an address by the bugologist to the Belleville board of trade, and anybody who has ever been in Belleville on a summer night can get some notion of how enthusiastically the members and their guests cheered the official news. The professor use-' lantern slides tn Illustration of bis talk. Some of the pictures showed the way ditching and draining are being done on the Kearny meadows, while others showed the Newark mosquito fighters spreading oil, particularly in sewer basins. Mr. Smith said that not until about the middle of May were the people In the section bothwed to any great extent with mosquitoes. At that time, he added, the breeding place on the Kearny meadows that had been overlooked, was discovered. Much progress was being made toward stamping out this breeding place, he stated, but mosquitoes from there got such a good start that for the last few weeks they have been causing more er loss annoyanoa.

erence to the state of Missouri, deploring that there were so few in tht&” state. “The lack of savings banks in Missouri is not due to the absence of thrift or industry among its people. We must look to the law* of the state to find the reason for lack of means to foster savings. “In the early nineties our lawmaker* attempted to make model laws, but they too much resembled the man who was teaching his horse to live without eating—the horse died. No bank can exist under the present laws and no one would be foolish enough to invest in bank stock, for there is no chance of profit as you will see from the following sections In our laws: “From section 1447 in the Revised Statutes we find the following to be the exact words: ‘lt shall be unlawful for any such corporation to loan mon-

Rubber For Paving Streets

Manufacturers Declare London Will Eventually Discard Old RoadMaking Methods—-Kills Noise. London. —London will be better worth living in when rubber paved streets have made it a city of silence. Imagine, if possible, what the English metropolis will be like when the roll of wheels and the trotting of horses no longer make a lasting din and the noisiest of motor buses make no more than a passing rumble. Rubbermakers think this paradise of quietude sooner or later will be realized. At any rate, when the International Rubber Trade exhibition opens on June 24 at the Royal Agricultural hall there will be displayed for the first time samples of rubber paving, suitable, it is claimed, as a substitute for the present-day methods of paving. A rubber roadway 122 feet long by 10 feet wide will be laid and although each manufacturer employs different

are capable of flying, he stated, forty miles. In speaking of the work being done by Newark under the direction of John W. Dobbins, Mr. Smith told of a device gotten up fcr the perpetual oiling of sewer catch basins. It consisted of an oil can with a long wick hanging over. The device was fastened to the top of the sewer basin. Mr. Smith commented that the device, theoretically, was a fine one, but no reckoning had been made of the fact that in some parts of Newark sewer basins were used as depositories of old and jaby' carriages. So the scheme was not altogether a success. Mr. Smith said that in certain parts of the state, through the persistent work of ditching, draining and oiling, the mosquito nuisance has been practically eliminated.

World’s Revolver Record.

San Francisco, CaL —James E. Gorman of San Francisco the other day established a new world’s revolver record at the Shell Mound range, scoring 467 for 50 shots at 50 yards on the standard American taget. The former record, 465, was made by Captain Galkins at Springfield, Mass., in 1904.

ey upon or to discount or deal in notes, bills of exchange, or other personal securities, or to transact any banking business, whether of issue, deposit or discount The board of directors may, however, make loans to the amount of 50 per cent of said deposit* "Another section provides that no depositor shall be allowed to deposit more than $4,000. Another that a certain per cent shall be set aside for a guaranty and Indemnity fund, which is commendable, but it provides that the stockholders shall receive only six per cent per annum on their stock and that all above that shall be divided among the depositors, whose pass books must be called in once every three years, when the distribution is made. "No sane investorzwill put his money in bank stock where he knows he can make only six per cent, per annum, and with such restrictions as 1 have named would probably eliminate all profits and make his stock a liability instead of an asset”

secret processes, all claim to have prepared a durable material. The initial outlay for paving roadways with rubber composition will cost only a little more than the system at present in use and will be more than compensated for by the prolonged life of the rubber. During many years rubber paving has been used with satisfactory results at some of the railway stations in London. Further, rubber paving blocks are reversible. The opinion is now confidently expressed that the new product is bound to supersede the old style of roadway and paving. If its introduction means the constant roar and din of the traffic is to disappear, then Londoners will gladly welcome It .

CANNOT STAND FOR TROUSERS

Bloomers Save Day for Irish Girls Who Want to Make Hay on Mrs. Belmont’s New York Farm. New York. — think we’d like to go to Mrs. Belmont’s place and learn to be farmers,” chorused two girls, who burst in upon Miss Mary Donnelly at the Thirty-fourth Street Political Equality association headquarters the other day. “But we want to ask one thing. We’ve seen pictures of the farmerettes in the papers, and they made us sort of afraid. They look as if they were dressed in pants. Would we have to wear store pants f “Bloomers," corrected Miss Donnelly, “and they can be as full as you like, and you can make them your self, real fancy if you like, out of pale blue stuff, you know.” Both girls put their names down at once and wanted to rush out to buy rolls of “pale blue stuff,” but Miss Donnelly told them it would be provided for them. Both were Irish; one, she said, was a music teacher, and the other worked in an art store. “But we’re tired of the city,” they sighed. “It’s farming for ours.” When they reach Hempstead they will find a new piano In the cottage where the farmerettes live. Mrs. Belmont purchased it to give variety to the evenings.

BABY’S HAIR ALL CAME OUT

“When my first baby was six months old he broke out on his head with little bumps. They would dry up and leave a scale. Then it would break out again and It spread all over his head. All the hair came out and his head was all over. Then his face broke out all over in red bumps and It kept spreading until it was on his hands and arms. I bought several boxes of ointment, gave him blood medicine, and had two doctors to treat him, but he got worse all the time. He had it about six months when a friend told me about Cuticura. I sent and got a bottle of Cuticura Resolvent, a cake of Cuticura Soap and a box of Cuticura Ointment. In three days after using them he began to improve. He began to take long naps and to stop scratching his head. After taking two bottles of Resolvent, two boxes of Ointment and three cakes of Soap he was sound and well, and never had any breaking out of any kind. His hair came out in little curls all over his head. I don’t think anything else would have cured him except Cuticura. “I have bought Cuticura Ointment and Soap several times since to use for cuts and sores and have never known them to fall to cure what I put them on. I think Cuticura is a great remedy and would advise any one to use it. Cuticura fipap Is the best that I have ever used for toilet purposes.” (Signed) Mrs. F. E. Harmon, R. F.
