UNSTOPPING THE SIN K.
When tho drain pipe of the kitchen
sink becomes stopped up. try the foi-
lowing suggested" by Clarence W.
Can‘oll, of Rochester, N. Y., to the
"Technlcal World Maga.zine": Cut a
piece of leather alrge enough to cover
the sink plate. ltemove the nozzle
from the garden hose and make a hole
in its confer large enough to screw the
end of thc hose tcrminal into. Having
screwed on the leather. place this over
the sink plate, hold it tightly down
and tum on the water. If no water be
allowed to leak out from under the
leather. the drain pipe will get the full
pressure from the faucet, and this will
usually be sufllcient to send the ob-
struction through the pipe.

TOYS THAT MAKE '
CHILDREN NERVOUS
Just about this time parents are be-
ginning to wail overthe fate ol the
expensive toys given totheir children
on Christmas. Few of these toys sur-
vive the tirspmonth. Most ol themare
broken, or -tho child is tired of them
by the time New Year’s Day arrives.
‘-‘Our children." a child- expert 'says
in explanation. "are .too nervous. ‘ln-
stead of giving them exciting toys,tbey
should have something soothlag.`l
_induced onefather to have a sandpit
installed for his- nervous little
girl; Sand is soothing. Just dig your
hand into a pan of sand and let it run
slowly through your fingers. Note how
soothing it is to you. lt has the same-
ellfecg on a child which needs to get its
toes into the sand as well as its hands.
“Children are destructive: It seems
to be the nat\u'al bent. Then why
give them mechanical toys that only
need winding up to make them go? I
invariably advise against such toys.
The child soon has them destroyed in
an ei!ort to sec what makes them
“go." Give children something con-
structive. Give them something to
built themselves and at the same time
they are overcoming the destructive
tendency. The juvenile courts are
busy with those children whose ten-
dency to destructiveness has never
been curbed or divided."
One‘of the big toy stores in ' the
United States last fall established a
novelty--a consulting expert for par-
ents in the matter of fitting the toy to
the child. This consulting expert was
not employed simply for the period
previous to the holiday season, 'in or-
der to encourage a larger saleof toys.
He is n permanent, feature of the es-
tablishment. and has already amazed
and peeved the ilrm's salesman by
sppillng some of their biggest sales.
-' ‘The biggest thing I hope to accom-
plish,” he says, "is to induce parents
.to select their children’s toys as intel-
ligently as they are beginning to select
their childrcn's diet. We all know
that the child leams through his play.
Many systems of education are found-
ed on that knowledge. Toys bear a
certain relation to a cliild's develop-
ment.
"Recently I stepped into the home
of an acquaintance where there are
three children. I had seen their toys
the day after Christmas. They were
many and expensive. I wondered how
the parents, who arc in moderate
ireumstances, could afford to buy
them. Like other parents they were
proud of the cxpensiveaess and quan-
tit.y and felt tha; ‘nothing is too good
for our children! '
"But now I discovered a total in-
difference toward their new posses-
sions by the children. They had 'work-
ed them all out,' and ‘shown them off'
to their friends,and the novelty was
gone. The small boy was discontented-
ly kicking at the electric railwaytrain.
The small girl was humming toherself
while she out paper dolls out of a
magazine. The older son was having
more fun with a cheap magnet on- a
string, that .picked up pins and needles
from the carpet (he’d found it in his
mo.ther'.s sewing machine drawer),th9.h
in the complicated moving picturema-
chine his rich uncle had presented to
him. - - '
"The American middle class," says
the expert, "seems to be densely ig-
norant about the. sort of playthlngs fit-
‘ted to their children. They seem to
think that if a thing is costly it must
be just the thing. I am afraid that
parens too .often select for the child
what pleases the parent."
But don't think he will advise you
according to the age of your youngs-
ter.'
"l must see and talk with the child,’_'
he says.-Portland Express.
SHARPENING A WORN FILE.
"When a file gets dull," said the
master mechanic, "you ca. nrestors its
effectiveness by pouring a little nit.r-
'ate-acid over it. This roughens the
raised parts and deepens the sun parts
so that it will again file your nails or
cut a bar of iron."

MENTAL GYMNASTICS
U -TRY THEM
-'A good manydistlnguished persons
have conildedto the public the kind
of mental gymnastics they prnctice,in
order to- Bet- _their ~ minds working
smoothly before they set about their
daily' tasks.
° An English novelist reads a page of
some weighty philosopbysnd compels
himself to reflect' on it for fifteen
minutes or shelf hour. His thoughts
continually wander away to something
more pleasing but he pulls them back
and makes them! take their exercise
and cold bath. so to speak. A famous
justice of the Supreme Court, before
going to work, studies out some hard
mathematical problem. Mrs. .luiia
Ward Howe used to translate Latin
and Greek every day for mental discl-
pliae; and Lord Macaulay, it is well
known, was 'always committing to
memory some big of poetry or prose.
, To commit passages to memory is
the kind of mental gymnastics most
likely to appeal. to boys and girls.
_Some day, when you simply cannot
make headway with your history° or
algebra lesson. lay the work aside for
a. moment. Take some poem or essay
that you like, read s sentence care-
fully, taking note of each word, then
close your eyes” and repeat the sent-
once slowly two or three tlnies. When
you have gone through a passage in
inet way. begin again; read the first
t _o sentences together and repeat
them; -then the next two, and so on.
The third tlmve, if you have paid close
attention, you ought to be able to re-
'peat the whole passage.
Now when you turn again to your
work, you will notice a surprising
change. You will think clearly. You
will have no' trouble in holding your
attention _c-n the lesson. And, stranger
yet, you are actually interested in lt.
The subject has not changed, but your
mind has limbered itself up on ideas
that it liked., A dark day looks bright
to a nian in good "spirits, and the dull-
est' subject is interesting to a. mine
thoroughly alive.
These mental gymnastics may seem
odd or even absurd to one who has
never tried them. But physical exer-
cise also is often pronounced foolish
by persons who have never experienc-
ed- its virtues. A trlal‘ will convince
in one case as quickly as in the othcr.

ACCUBES Ti»l__E._G-ERMAN8 OF AR-
_8_0N.'
BOSTON, Mass., Feb. 2.-The Rev.
Dr. Charles Cox, LLD. F.S.A.. in an
article to the "Antiquary," gives an
account of the ‘celebrated University
Library of Louvain, which the Ger-
mans destroyed.;
' in 1723 _when _thc volumes numbered
i!_pwards_of_ll.0Q0. the library was
.loiised in a il_nq_.a_tone building. Be-
fore long it was increased to 70.000
volumes, and several great scholars
were among its librarians. - Some of
its earliest books were unique, no
other _copy _being in existence.
` In Bddition _to the store of printed
works, the library contained a large
number of .priceless manuscripts.
Many of these nisnuseriptii were irish.
When the _ Four Masters compiled
their marvellous great work, the “An-
nals of Ireland," a large portion of
it was based on the literary treas-
ures of Louvaiu.
It was a fire that wrought the
havoc, and the deliberations of the
destroyers is almost incredible.
"I have spoken to. several Bolgians"
says Dr. Cox. "who are prepared to
swear that they saw soldiers carry-
ing, bundles, of straw onzpitchforks,
which were heaped within and with-
out. the library and augmented by
several wagon loads, and thc whole
was set on fire. so that in a very short
time this vast and invaluable store of
literature was reduced to a heap oi'
ashes."
.l)r. Cox says that in this respect
tho_ "cultured" Germans were far
worse than the "godless French revol-
utionists."
ln 1793, when tlie_French occupied
Brussels, they hail, Dr. Cox points
out; the wit to see that the library
stores of that great town were of in-
finite value. They picked up wagon
loads of the choicest books and man-
uscripts and despatched them to the
great library of Paris. ,
In the following year the French
raiisacked various other libraries in
the Netherlands, including that of
Louvain. The books were afterward
retumed to the places from which
they had been stolen. But the Ger-
mans reduced the whole of this store
of Iitoraturo to a heap of ashes and
the single remnant now extant is a
portion of a signed leaf of a beautiful-
ly illuminated manuscript, which the
wind carried into an adjacent garden.

“POLlCEw0MEN" ARE
NOT A FAMILIAR
SIGHT IN LONDON
A familiar sight in tlic strccts of
London at the present time is thc
corps of policewonien, known as the
Women's Police Volunteers. One of
its members is shown iii our illustra-
tion iri an evidently amusing conversa-
tion with one oi Loiidon°s “best ever."
Dressed in her smart blue uniform and
heavy boots, white gloves, collar and
necktic and regulation hat. sho is an
excellent foil to the sturdy gopd-na-
tiired giant whose word is law and
whose raised finger is uiihesitntingly
obeyed on the streets of London.
The possibilities oi' that great ilect
of Gerinnirdirigibles that hovers my-
steriously in the background iiiziy
loom up as ii mighty factor in the
English mind, hut the iudeilniteness
oi thc threat has not militntcd
against the preservation of law and
order. All possible precautions have
been taken against unexpected attack
from without, while within the Loii-
doiier feels secure under the protec-
tion of the "hobbies" whose special
'work is connected with the women
and the children. Parr of the reason
for calling the latter body into exist-
ance was the distressing increase oi'
drunkenness among women since the
war began.
But the women of Eiiglanil ure
preparing to take a more vigorous
part in the defence of their country
than the perforniaiicc ut' police du-
ties. Soon after the beginning ol’
the war, when Lady Cook proposed
the raising oi' a \\'oiiiaii's corps of
defence, she was laughed nt and
ridiculed, but llie idea gorniiiiatcd
and has now buddeii iortli into a
\vomcn’s volunteer rescrvc, the ob
ject, of which is "to provide a trained
and highly cilicieiit body of women
whose servlcs can be offered to the
slate if required."
Such women, it is said, could bo
trained for signalling, dispatch rid-
ing, telegrnphng, motoring and
camp cooking and could thus replace
men who might be more usefully eni-
ployed on the ilrlng line.
` Four _companies of the womeii's
volunteer reserve already have been
formed. with Viscountess Castlereagh
as colonel. They are to be armed not
for aggression, but "for their own
defence in the last extremity." Thus
 
for eaodoliarsbut requires practically
continuous operation to prevent can-
cellation of license. _ -
