SOME COMPENSATION.
Evidence that there will be somn
Compensation to the United States for
the loanna which Its trade hi mistnln-
Ing by keapon of the war la appear
ing. _
Announcement Is made that the Car
negie Slid company ha* aecured ft«in
the government of Queensland. Aiu
trall*. mi ft 'ice for 17.000 tons of rails.
This Is the largest order for steel for
exiKirt that has been placed In this
country since the war began.
It was placed here because tt could
not be filled elsewhere. Several weeks
ago a representative of the Queens
land government arrived at Pittsburgh
and placed a tentative order for the
rails After some days he canceled It,
Having that the ralla would be bought
in Europe.
l.ast week, however, the Qtiecnaland
representative's secretary came to
Mtteburgh and reopened negotiations
Thla time tint order was closed. Mani
festly, efforts to place it In Kuropo
had proved futile.
it may he expected, then, that or
der* for manufactures of steel w ill
come to this country from other users
•who have been heretofore supplied
from Europe.
And It Is not Improbable that Amor
lean manufacturers will be sblojo hold
gome of this diverted trade eveß when
Trace baa been restored and produc
live activities In Kuropo have been re
sumed.
WHERE 18 THE RESPONSIBILITY?
Somoon* writing to the New York
Timm asks:
“Why thin indignant outcry against
the drat ruction of the Cathedral at
Ithelma? I* thin a greater horror than
the wanton (testruction of human
lives? Arc not th* numberless live*
sacrificed in this dreadful holocaust
of Infinitely greater value than all the
)irlcel«*» treasures and cathedral* In
the worldV"
There ia something jet, of higher
importance than the numberless live*
which are being sacrificed, it I* the
Christian idea There is eve. I con
tention among the not lon*, u I" where
the responsibility for shall
rest. Every nation engaged 'n It Is
attempting to repudiate thla respon
sibility.
The war of opinion amt argument la
aa vigorous and unremitting. In ll*
way, aa the war of guns and bayonet*.
Th* nations are calling for Judgment,
but here in America we need to think
more of ihe world-wide error of war
fare than of apodal condemnation,
•ither of the (lerman* or the aillea.
Fortunately, this country has been
held out of war..
Let us be thankful that the bur
dens which the war In Europe ts now
imposing upon ua In America are
slight— bad aa they are— tn compar
ison with those which are crushing
upon men and countries nearer to the
center of the trouble
Hurely. it Is amaslng that here In
America we ehould bear the Incon
venience and hardship* of errors In
European civilisation. But, an Intel
ligent acceptance of our own hard
ships, together with sympathetic ap
preciation of what this war means to
agonised human beings tn other lamia,
bring* us with broadened vision and
larger grasp to the question of why
1* wsr?
It 1* simply because tbe greet hu
man family have not yet learned
enough of sympathy and good feeling
to realise that strife and armaments
are things which reverse the wheel*
of progress and wipe out the thing for
which tt Is most worth while to strive
When th* cost of this war la sum
med up—if ever It la summed up—
we shall come to realise that the most
real and vital waste of It alt la th*
waste to the eoul of civilisation
Material development may come out
of conquests hr arms but true prog
ress dimes only by the victories of
more lovely and more quiet foreea
The full responsthlttty for all IhU
Buffering and trouble cannot real upon
any one nation alone, nor upon any
band of nations.
ft rest* tn cleaving to the belief that
thmnrh armament* and armlea a na
tion can he made great Tt rests In
putting faith In physical atrength
rather than In honor: In believing In
Jealousy and emulation, rather than
love and development And. let ns
add. It rests to a certain evtenl upon
each separate individual wh i gives
hi* support to these false and destruc
tive standards.

HANS AND THE WITCH.
Hans was In deep trouble. His fa
ther was dead and now he was an or
phan, and a very poor one, too, for his
older brother, Hugo, told him that
there was nothing to give him out of
the estate.
“You are a lazy boy,” exclaimed the
older brother after the funeral, “and I
do not mean to support you at all.
Father left me the property. Clear
out! You can have the lame horse to
ride, this broken pan and that old
black hen to take with you.”
Hans was not big or strong enough
to dispute with his brother, so he sad
ly ate his breakfast, hut the saddle on
the lame horse, tied the broken pan to
the saddle and took the old hen, under
his arm. Then he set out to seek his
fortune. On and on he went till night

begin to fall and ho was at the hank
of a wide river. He gathered some
grass for the horse, built a fire and be
gan to boil an egg which the hen had
laid. As he sat warming himself he
heard someone approaching and saw
an old woman hobbling up. She seem
ed to be very poor and very hungry,
for she was thin and dressed In rags.
“Have you a bite to spare, kind sir?"
said the forlorn creature.
Now Hans was hungry and tired,
but he felt so sorry for the woman that
he replied: “I have a nice fresh egg
which you can have and welcome.”
After she had eaten the egg the old
woman said again: “I am very tired
and want to get to my home tonight.
Could you let me ride your hors* back
for übout five miles?"
Ilans told her to mount and that he

A Logical Woman
She Admits It
Dear John:
I have your letter, and I am so glad that you
found everything satisfactory. •
When you asked me.before you left town so hur
riedly, to buy you a few things you needed, and send
them on to you, the commission rather frightened
me—you are so particular. Shall I tell vou what I
did?
First. I made out a list of just what I wanted,*
and then I studied very carefully the advertising col
umns of the daily newspapers. I compared the
prices, checking off from my list the things that
I wanted, and then I shopped.
And—here is the great wonder of it— I found
those advertising pages to be GUIDES ! I could
-.never have accomplished what I did without them.
It has convinced me that even experience in
shopping is not absolutely necessary if one will only
make a close study of the daily newspapers.
Even a woman ertn be logical 1

would lead the animal, for It was dark
and she could not see how to guide a
lame horse well. Bo he led the horse
back for five miles until they arrived
at a queer looking cave under a bank
of ferns.
Here she alighted and thanked Hans
gratefully. “I know who you are and
all about how your brother treated
you,” she said.
With this she took a large stone out
of her pocket. It looked to Hans like
a big lump of glass.
“Go hack to your brother tonight,”
she continued, “and tell him you have
found a great fortune and returned.
Show him this. It is a burning stone
which will harm all wicked people who
take It In their hands, but no one with
a kind heart like yours. Your father
wished you to have half of all his
property and you must make your
brother promise to give you that half."
“But how can I do that?” asked the
boy.
“Easily,” replied the witch, “for
when he finds you have this stone,
which he will think is a diamond, he
will take it. It will burn his hand,
hut nothing can stop the burning ex
cept the magic verse 1 will tell you.
But he must promise to give you hack
the property he has stolen from you
before you say the verse.”
So Hans took the stone and ran
home. He showed it to Hugo, who was
glad to get a chance to steal it and
pretended that he made Hans wel
come. But when Hans got In bed,
Hugo sneaked np to his room and
grabbed the stone, thinking he was
getting a diamond worth hundreds of
thousands of dollars. Hans heard him
and sprang up. No sooner had the
big brother gotten the stone In his
hands than it began to burn and he
commenced to scream.
Hugo was suffering so terribly that
he gladly made the promise. Then
Hans said the verse taught him by the
witch, which ran like this:
Burning stone,
Leave him alone,
Abacadabra,
Kunhun kabra.
As soon as Hans had said the magic
words, the stone stopped burning, and
when Hugo opened his hand he saw
only the ashes of the rock—it had
vanished.
Rut the older brother kept his word,
for the burn taught him a lesshn. He
gave Hans his half of the estate, and
for the rest of their lives the two
brothers remained together In comfort
and peace.
