ITALY QUITS PEACE
CONFERENCE
President Wilson’s emphatic
declaration that he will not yield
on the Adriatic question lias crea
ted a profound sensation in the

quit attending the meetings.

In this world. Lift up nature to thine

Cat for honor's sake; that alone is
worthy of a man. And if it sh jeJ-.i fall

Authentic Bronte Relic.
An Interesting relic of Charlotn
Bronte, the novelist, has been presented
to the museum at Haworth, England
It is a traveling trunk used by Char
lotte Bronte. Inside is a label gtvtng
the maker’s name and address In Brus
sels, and there is little doubt the trunk
accompanied Charlotte on her Jour
neys between Monsieur lleger's Pen
slonnat in the Hue d'lsnbelle in that
city, and her home at the Uawortb
rectory.
Composition of Mica.
Mica, so named from its being easily
divided Into glistening scales, consists
of silica and alumina, associated with
magnesia, soda and lime In varying
proportions. Thus there are potash
mica, consisting of silica, alumina and
potash, and magnesia mica. In which
the alumina is partially replaced by
magnesia, passing—as the proportion
of magnesia increases—into soft talc,
which is chiefly composed of silica and
magnesia.
