The following inspiring letter from the snii of Colonel Vloland. of Bo- logne, France, is reproduced here. It breathes so magnificent a spirit of Patriotism that it seems to deserve worldwide publlcity:~ My dear F'ather.- If this letter reaches you you will have had the honor of having your son killed by the enemy. I was yesterday proposed for promotion and for the Cross of the Legion of Honor. I do not think I havedone anything io deserve such a py, without regret, proud of having mixed my blood with that which so many heroes before me have shed that France may be more beautiful and more respected. I shall die, if God wills, a good Christian and a good Frenchman. My last thoughts will be of niotlier. whom I shall have rejoined; of you, my dear father, who are so brave; of my poor little sweetheart; but I wish my last breath to whisper, “Vive le. France!" -Your Son. . CAMILLE VIOLAND.

I. . . - ZEPPELIN AIR RAID i The sir raids are the natural out- come of spring. for fairly settled wea- ther conditions can travel far from a base with any great hopes of return- ing safely, says the Liverpool Journal of Commerce. We can only hope that. from this point of view, the climate feats of this country will be strictly in accordance with previous practice for if such proves to he the case dur- ing the coming summer months. the Germans will find that our tricky, un- stable weather will prove as deadly ',an enemy to their air raiders as our cruisers were to their now extiinct sea raiders. _ _ _ __ _ These fully anticipated air excur- sions have definitely proved s. num- ber of important points, from which we have every justification for draw- ing the most satisfactory conclusions. Summarizing these points we may say thatz- (a) The enemy’s aircraft show the greatest reluctance to trying conclu- sions with any of our armed sta- tions, where preparations have been made to receive them. (b) The craft used are of the famil- iar type, and they have not shown themselves to be possessed of any ex- ceptional qualities. (c) The failure to strike any posi- tion of military importance shows that the darkening of the coast and the putting out of all lights in the threat- ened area leaves the Zeppelin hope- lessly groping in the dark and unable to drop bombs with the faintest like- lihood of hitting any definite objective. (d) The bombs themselves have 'proved comparatively harmless. (e) The destructive load carried is smaliangl serious damage is purely a matter of chance, and therefore a. re- mote possibility. A nuinber of people expressed _sur- prise at an enemy’s, aeroplane appear- ing during the day. but in this re- spect it must be remembered that iiightjying by aeroplanes, except on known routes, -over comparatively short distances is an extremely dan- gerous undentaklng. The aeroplane must, therefore, come during the day light, and return before dark hence mid-day apperances of these craft are most likely. It is almost unneces- sary to say that these visitors stand a very good chance of being inter- cepted on their return journey by our coast-defending aircraft. The anti- _aircraft gun has also to he reckoned with, although its value may be said to be more or less of a potential char- acter, in that it prevents, or rather increases, the risks of any airmen ily- iiig low. The Zeppelin is not bound to travel and arrive during the night and it con- sequently chooses the dark, when the danger fromt anti-air craft guns, rifle fire and pursuing aeroplanes is at .a minimum. Another advantage of the Zeppelin is that it has a longer radius of action, and can therefore avoid our defended basis and attack more distant parts of the country. For this reason the east coast is likely to re- main tlie favorite resort of the en- emy’s airships. But that is a. matter which need not worry residents along these shores, for except in the Tyne _and London districts. these trips are likely‘to be chiefly in the nature of trials. ` That the enemy will make an at- tempt to raid London and possibly the Tyne, in force, can scarcely be doubt- cd, but from the results achieved by the recent raids we may conclude that the damage done will only be local, and not witliln the Province of the enemy to regulate. Moreover, the nights are now getting shorter, and consequently the probability of the raiders reaching our shores undetect- ed is smaller, while the possibility of a safe return is still more remote. 5 When this air fleet. which the en- _emy has no doubt been building at a feverish rate during the winter, does arrive, it will be chiefly a. qiiestlon of chance whether we escape with so little loss as hitherto, but it is quite certain that these raids can have ab- solutely no influence whatever on the war. Considered from this point of view the whole idea of Zeppelin raids appears to be on the part of the ac- tions of individuals who allow their childish selfishness and petty spite to get the better of them. We can scarcely imagine anything more baby- ish than this desire of Germany to do some little harm to the inhabitants of this country without consideration of the trouble involved or the possible cost.

The Kansas City Union Station was turned into a. big side show, and sev- eral persons missed their trains in an effort to get a look at Mrs. M. A. Gow- dy, 16 years old, weight more than a quarter of a ton, or to he exact, 587 pounds. Aside from being “the biggest girl in tlie.world," Mrs. Gowdy is a bride Until two weeks ago, when she was wedded to Gowdy. a tall, lank and weighing 118 pounds, she was Miss Jossie Jolly. "lt may be nobody loves a fat man, but there’.s men who loves fat women -didn't I catch a husband ‘."’ said Mrs. Gowdy. ' “I don't see why women who are fat are forever complaining. I am satisfi- ed-I like to be fat. You don’t catch me rolling around on the floor or tak- ing any of these new fangled exercis- es to reduce. I wiint all l've got and I'll not object to more weight.” Just to show she could “step about a bit," Mrs. Gowdy did a. buck and wliig dance for a select audience in the hair dressing parlor in the sta- tion. CHARMED LIVES. The hah-breath escapes from death which many soldiers have had in the great war must be making those for- tunate "Tomniies" firm believers in the saying that “it is better to be born lucky than to be born rich." Hardly a. day passes but we hear, says the Glasgow Herald, of a. case where a soldier owed his life to something which he had on his body at the time. and which was the nieuns of deflectlng the bullet from its intended billet. A German hiillet, for instance, struck a Connaught Ranger on the breast, but it fortunately came in con- tact wlth a plug of tobacco, and he got oft’ scratchless. Another- lucky esi cape from what might have been a mortal wound.,liappened to a. Royal Scots Fusilier. During a severe fight he suddenly felt the shock of a bullet. “I am hit," he said to his chum. Look- ing down. however. he saw that the bullet `liad struck a clip of cartridges in his left hand pouch, but had done no damage. The first cartridge must have been a little loose, as it twisted round when it was struck the bullet was turned off instead of going strai- ght through fhe soldier’s body, as if would have done had all the cartridges been firm. A BACHELOR’S ROMANCE. Captain the Hon. George Henri Douglas-Pennant, if the .Grenadier Guards, who was illed in action in March, left nearly the wlioie of his property. worth altogether £63,687, to Mrs. Phyllis Langhorne Brooks, of Mirador, Greenwood, Virginia. He bequeathed his game trophies to the National Museum of Wales, at Car- diff, £200 to his godson, Raymond Cuthbert Quilter, and the residue to Mrs. Brooks. Mrs. Brooks is one of "the five beau- tiful Langhorne sisters,” as the daugh- ters of Mr. Chiswell Dabney Lang- horne, of Greenwood, Virginia, have been described. Mrs. Charles Dana Gibson, Mrs. Wal- dorf Astor. and Mrs. Paul Phipps, of London are others of the famous sis- ters. The fifth, Mrs. T. Moncura,Per- kliis, died in Aprili Captain Douglas~Pennsnt, who was thirty-eight years old, was a half-bro- ther of Lord Penrhyn. His will was made on October 21 last. AMERICAN DYES. Amerlcaii textile companies are at last making a serious effort to estab- lish chemical dye works in this coun- try, to take the plare of the German color factories isolated by the war, says the Chicago Journal. It is a good move, but to meet with permanent success it must take a somewhat broader scope than is men- tioned in the dispatches. It is not enough to provide a mere substitute for or imitation of the German pro- duct.. Any such output in sure to be .swept aside as soon as Germany gets into the field again. The new industry must strike out on new lines. It must pit Yankee ingenuity against German patience. It must improve the quality of chemical colors, not rest content with providing something "just as good." There is plenty of room for improve- ment. Some of the colors derived from coal tar are among the most beautiful tints the world has seen. But some are merely garish. and not a few of the really admirable ones are not permanent. Worst of all, per- haps, they lack the ability to grow old gracefully. Fabrics treated with the vegetable dyes of our. fathers fade into safer and more winsome shades .of the original color with the lapse of time, while most of the anlline dyes begin to be ugly as soon as they change in any degree from their first state. These 'are faults for which there ought to be some remedy. If Ameri- can colorist find that remedy they can establish a prominent and valuable industry.
