AH arms and am munition in Ireland have been called in by tho government, and it is now a crim inal offence for anybody to be in posses sion, however, innocently, of such articles. Permits have been abolished. Needless to say, the Sinn Feiners have not given up any weapons and the order has only operated against ordinary people who kept guns for sport, or happened to pos sess souvenirs of the war. The 'German cartridges brought home to their fathers by many Irish boys would appear on a eharge sheet as so many rounds of dum dum ammunition, and even a disabled revolver falls under the km. Thg souvenir, therefore, now re pose in the government stores. Borne loyal people wore not quick enough in responding to tin? government orders and have had to pay for it in the police court. In ono case a man who had a permit for a gun thought it would be all right if h? told the police about it without go inj' to the trouble of lodging it at the military barrasks. The police knowing his position, encouraged his delusion., but that did not save him from prose cution and the facts showed how needful was lite government's precautions, for the. bum Feiners got into his houxe and made, away with his gun while tho prose-t-iiiioii was (tending Bread Upon the Waters. "When I was a tittle child," the ser geant sweetly addressed his nieu at the end of an exhaustive hour of drill, "I had a set of wooden soldiers.

Then I wanted them baek and cried, but my mother said, ' Don 't cry, Bertie, some day you will get your wooden soldiers hark.

Each trip he had been delayed by inquisitive persons who bombared him with Foolish Ques tions, Nos. 1-1000, inclusive. Finally an old lady stopped him: "Young man," she said, "what do you do when a machine gets up in the air ami- runs out of gasolinef '' "''onndentiaMy, .ma'am," he replied, "that's just what's happened now.

AMUSICAL ADVENTURE FOR AMERICA Newspaper dispatches state that there Is a plan afoot to have a na tional carillon at Washington, D. C as a tribute to tbe soldier dead. Contact with tbe men and women of Flanders has directed American at tention to one kind of music, vital in the national Uvea of these people, which cannot even be heard ia thls( country. A carillou Is made up of a set of tower bells httuned to tbe intervals of tbe chromatic scale, usually cover ing a range ef four octaves. To attain Mich a rant the bell producing the lowest note must weigh several tons, while tbe smallest weighs scarcely twenty pounds. The rVllg aro connect ed! to a keyboard or to a clockwork mecliiuilsiu which causes their clap- lers to strike. Producing music from the bells re quires great skill and dexterity on tbe part of the bellninster. for he must use his feet for tbe larger bells, and the. muscles of both his wrist and elbow are brought into play In producing the tremolaudo effect usually given. A ftiM carillon Is not the result of a chance molding of metal but its mak ing Is s much an achievement wrought by a wise combination of excellent ma terlal and deep thought as a Stradi- vaiiu. Lovers of caVlIlon nnislc coin- pare the tones to those of a pianoforte In delicacy and to an organ In majesty. WTien touched by the band of a master like Penyn, the wizard of Ma lines, the music elns to come veritably from tbe heavens and to settle In peace and benediction over the surrounding coun try. From the even rows of red-topped roofs and the trees of the surrounding level spaces In Mallnes the Immense flat-topped tiotblc spire of St. Roin bauld once arose. The cathedral dated from the thirteenth century and has for hundreds of years been known tho world over for the remarkable silvery quality of its bells. So mnch attention had been given to making it the best of its kind that Its bell makers gained wide reputations and the town Itaelf became tbe headquarters of bell found in. The tower, vast and mysterious against the luminous sky, aemed to dominate the dry. While compelling the attention It stirred the Imagination, as It kept watch over Mallnes and tolled the passing of the hours with Its hugest belU When not attached to the wonderful mechanism that con trolled the ringing of the carillon, this bell required eight men to ring It. Tbe range f tbe bells of ibis carillon was great enough to admit of many diffi cult operatic selections. Tndny the majestic lower mingles its dust with that of the ruined city over which It had for centuries guarded. The carillon of Antwerp HeK. the greatest number of hells of any in Handera sixty-five. It has been said that fiv-.ii the cathedral tower on a clear morning 126 carillons could be seen. IhmaM () '(.'uHuglm u. who succeeded Terence MiicSwiney. It is retried that.

In as interest ing statement regarding Cardui, tho Woman's Tonic, Mrs. Wesley Mabe, of near here, recently said: "I haro known Cardui .for years, but never knew Its worth until a year or so ago. I was in a weakened, run-down con dition. I became draggy didn't eat or sleep to do any good; couldn't do any thing without a great effort. I tried different remedies and medicines, yet I continued to drag. "I decided to give Cardui a trial, and found It was Just what I really needed. It made me feel much strong er soon after I began to use it. I be gan to eat more, and the nervous, weak feeling began to leave. Soon I was sleeping good. "Cardui built mo tip as no other tonic ever did. "I used Cardui with one daughter who was puny, felt -bad and tired out all the time. It brought ber right out, and soon she was as well as a girl could be. We think there is nothing like Cardui" Do not allow yourself to become weak and run-down from womanly troubles. Take Cardui. Yon may find It Just what you really need. For more than 40 years it has been used by thousands and thousands, and found just as Mrs. M&ie Ascribes.

"He's always playing Idiotic tricks on me. and I'm jetting tired of It. This morning, as I was leaving home, I found my front gate nailed hut, and I had to climb over it, and nearly broke ' my back doing It" I wouldn't give three cents for a boy who didn't play tricks," re plied tbe hotel keeper. "I ex pect you were as giddy as the rest yon t were young. Whenever a boy pnts up a Job on me, and I feel my self getting mad, I recall some of my own exploits when I was a lad, and that enables me to forget my troubles. "I was looking through an ancient album last evening, and saw the pie- rurea or a ioi or peopie wno ten on the earth many years ago. They were venerable men and women in my schooldays, and I had played tricks on every one of them; not with mal ice aforethought, but Just .because a kid mubt have his fun. "There was a picture of old Aunt Betsy, who used to come to our house once In a while, on a visit, and as soon as she came she took charge of every thing. She knew how to do things better than anybody else, and she was always criticising my mother's meth ods. Whenever mother started to do anything, Aunt Betsy would take the job out of her hand, saying she would show the right way to do It. "I had heard somewhere that if yon put a drop or two of acetic acid In a gallon of cream, that cream will never make butter. I had a great memory for such facts, and kept them on file where they would be useful. One morning mother said sbe would have to Nhnni. and she got things ready. I knew that as soon as she, started Aunt Betsy would want to show her how it slionld be done, so when 1 bad a chance, I dropped some of ihe Held Into the churn, which was one ef those old upright affairs, with a dasher that yon worked up nnel down until the butter came. "Mother seated herself on a stool and begun (burning, and then Aunt Betsy came along, and suid that while she was a modext and unassuming woman, she did claim to know a lit tle more about churning than anybody of her weight In that part of the country. 'Let me do It, tny dear, said she. 'and I'll have butter In seven minutes by the clock.' So she took hold of the dasher and began slapping away with It. She worked and worked, and the sweat began rolling down ber face. snd every once In a white she'd lift the lid of the churn to see what siled the doggone cream, and then she'd pour In some cold water, and then some hot water, and the more she wrestled away, the less sign of butter was; there. "She whanged away at that dlng b rusted churn for two. hours and couldn't get results, and she was so mad and disgusted over It she want ed to pnek her trunk and go back home. Mother saw me rolling around in the yard all doubled np with un holy mirth, and she realized at qnce, by deductive reasoning, that I was responsible, and the licking I got that evening took the edge off my sense of humor for three weeks. "Another time. Uncle James was vis iting us. He used to sit in n. rustic chair under an apple tree and doze, after dinner. Re had a bald head, and his hat always slid off after he had snored a few times. One day I sneaked up behind him with a feather - ..... ... waw and began tickling his la-uu. lieu slap bis dome of thought and cuss a little, and then doze again, when I would get busy with the feather.' That went on for quite a while, and I was having the time of my life. I never heard any language more highly col ored than Uncle James put up. "My mother heard him saying things, and came to the door and asked him what was the matter,and he said a ding-donged lopsided By wa$ chewing his scalp off. He had chased It away three million times, but I al ways came back. ? I got another lick ing that night, and my mind was oc cupied with serious things for a month."
