Leipzig possesses a monument
which rises only a few IncheR short
of .'100 feet. "The Battle of the Na
tions" monument stands In the middle
of the plain where Blucher routed Na
poleon’s army. One million cubic
meters of earth were displaced to
make room for Its base. It Is sur
rounded by an enclosure a quarter of
a mile wide and nearly half a mile
long. ‘
Next to the Pyramids It Is the high

the costliest Tills distinction belongs
to the national memorial to Victor Bin-
tnanuel 11, erected on the Cnpltollno
hill In Rome at a cost of $20,000,000.
It took 31 years to complete this huge
pile of marble steps, covered with
statues, bas-reliefs, and mosaics. Snc-
conl, the architect, who designed It
died long before the work wns finish
ed. but he left models complete In
every detail, and hls original plans
were never tampered with.

EXTRAVAGANCE is the curse of mankind. It means
spending all you earn and going into DEBT without
having something SUBSTANTIAL in return.
There is the old saying: “It's only three generations
from plow to plow.” The father earns, the son spends;
his sort’s son goes to work again.
When you have a GRIP on niopey why not HOLD it.

Colors Save the Eggs.
We have heard a great deni about
protective coloration In nature, and
when we consider the advantages
which accrue to protectively colored
eggs we may wonder why some eggs
have remained pure white through the
ages, why others are of the most con
spicuous greenish blue, and why still
others stand out by their spotted or
speckled patterns, says the American
Forestry Magazine. White eggs are
for the most part laid by hole-nesting
species of birds like the owls and
woodpeckers, and since the eggs nre
well hidden In their dark cavities It
has not been necessary for them to
develop. protective coloration. The
bright greenish blue eggs of most of
the thrushes, for example, must he
hidden In nests which are concealed
In dense vegetntlon and the speckled
eggs of the ground nesting sparrows
depend for their snfety upon the good
hiding of the grass-woven nest

Modem Casablanca.
A fire guard In the Shenandoah na
tional forest not so long ago found him
self In a predicament similar to that
of Casablanca, although his decision
was not so silly. Discovering that
there were three boars at the foot of
the lookout tower In which he was
stationed without arms of any kind, he
telephoned for permission to leave at
the first chance to get a gun. The
district ranger replied that the for
ests were dry, that a fire might start
anywhere at any time, and that he
must stay where he was. hears or no
hears; and the guard stayed. After a
time some one who had “listened In"
came to hls rescue.—Youth’s Com

Japs bating Frog Meat.
Frog meat made Its first appearance
last month in the menu of one of the
most popular restaurants of Tokyo,
Japan. Frogs had never been consid
ered as a food until very recently by
the Japanese.
In 1018 Dr. Watonabe brought some
edible frogs from the United States.
They were kept at the Infectious dis
ease experimental station, where ex
periments were made In breeding and
raising.
The government has taken steps to
encourage the raising and eating of
frogs.
