Piracy on the China Coast
linggkong Press: No complete pro-
teeliou against plracy on the China
roast has been devised, nor can be
iu the present circumstances. Fifteen
Jcars.:ago the opinion was given by
eta experienced shipmaster that the
prc;ruce of armed guards was the'
n100t practical preventive measure
against piracy, and this remains the
Otoet. effective form of protection.
These measures have so far proved
Joe per cent, efficient, for since the In-
irminel0in on British ships of armed
military guards after the Ankleg out-
rage last year, no attempt at piracy
has been ever made on a ship so pro-
te'olyd. Now, for some reason, there
Is talk of these military guards being
evehdrnwn at an early date, and the
supgo3tlon is not looked upon with
any savor by the officers of the ships
affected.

Ice Jams Destroyed
By Use of Chemicals
Prof. Barnes of McGill Has
Learned How to Reduce
Their Menace to Life
and Property
Winter is not what It used to he,
now that ice engineering hag conte
into practice. New methods of meet-
ing cold weather conditions in near
ern rivers have been especially neces-
sary. There, with successive cold
waves, the Ice jam forms, sometimes
closing ports and causing losses 1e11 -
;Ong Into enormous figures. When
the St. Lawrence freezes, for exaup:e,
and ehips cannot reaeli Montreal, the
losses are estimated at about $1,500,-
000 a week. Ice jams my also mean
the overwhelming of entire cern-
muntles of Roods.
Remedying such ice conditions as
these calla for the services of a Ie!-
entitic specialist; and so the ice en-
gineer has conte into being.
In his task be uses a number of
chemicals, Outstanfic,t among them
is calcium' chloride. It has been
found very effective in relieving ice
pressure when destructtoa of a jam
is not necessary. A track of the
chemical laid along the line of a tvall
gives adequate productive. Some-
times a series of holes is made in the
jam and calcium chloride is inserted
mixed with gravel, sand or coal dust,
which serve to carry It into the ice;
or the chemical in flakes may be scat-
tered on the surface. Wherever it
touches the ice the ice rots. Sodium
chloride may also be used systemati-
cally for rotting and destroying ice as
may calcium carbide, crude sulphuric
acid and hydrochloric acid.
The moat effective and spectacular
reagent that has been used In Ice en-
gineering is thermit, long familiar in
welding operations. Professor How-
ard T. Barnes of McGill University
made prolonged researches in its use,
Thermit consists of a mixture of
aluminum metal and iron oxide.
When its temperature Is raised to
2,800 degrees Fahrenheit, the alurntu•
UM combines with the oxide, releasing
the iron, molten au' white hot; which
in turn reacts with the water of the
ice to generate hydrogen 00 suddenly
that an explosion resells, though
thermit itself is not explosive.
COINSTiPATED CHILDREN
Constipation is one of the most
common ailments of childhood and
the child suffering from it positively
cannot thrive. To keep the little one
well the bowels must be kept regular
and the stomach sweet. To do this
nothing can equal Baby's Own Tab-
lets, They are pleasant to take and
can bo given to the newborn babe
with perfect safety. Thousands of
mothers use no other medicine for
their little ones but Baby's Own Tab-
lets. They are sold by medicine deal-
ers or by mail at 25 cents a box from

The flret comparison between th
costumes of last winter and this 1
tate coming to the tore of the tailore
shirtwaist. Many of the younger ole
ment skate In cloth skirts, pleated o
slightly flared on hip yoke, and tut
in crepe blouses with mannish turn
over of flat claudlno coitus. One ver
smart blouse noted was of tub sills 1
broad stripes of white and light blu
with a navy skirt. Often a Ilgbtweigh
Jumper is worn over the blouse, but
this jumper, too, is usually tucked in-
to the belt.
The one-piece woollen dress is an-
other fashion endorsed by well-dress-
ed women at the Petals de Glace,
White collars, leather belts and, not
infrequently, a bolero cut to the bod-
ice are features of these dresses,
most of them in fine tweed mixtures,
Many of the skirts are pleated, es-
pecially in knife pleats stitched part
way down, but a greater number than
last year are flared.
Madame Barbey, who, with her
daughter, is among the best skaters
1n France, is wearing a green woollen
dress this whiter, with green felt hat
to match. It has a cream color collar,
and is made princess style, with a
wide flare to the skirt Most of the
very good skaters, who sometimes go
in for exhibition dancing, wear prin-
cess dresses.
Mlle. Barbey has an attractive one
of brown velvet with beige collar and
cuffs; Mlle, Andree Joly wears black
velvet, with tiny cream net collar
close to the throat and a black velvet
hat on Dutch cap lines and black
shoes and stockings.' Another of the
good skaters also wears black velvet,
but brightens it by heavy lace collar
and cuffs., and a beige facing to her
skirt to match her Wolters, shoes
and stockings.
The rank and file of skaters prefer
less spectacular costumes, and ones
which would be suitable for other
sports. Tho swc-ater jumper worn
without a blouse is still seen, provided
it is hand knitted and in modern de-
sign; and a few jersey cardigan suits

War Guilt
"The war -guilt belongs to all Eur•

hare proved this. Germany's exchl-
sive ;,utIt or Germany's Innocence are
fairy -rales for children on both aides
of iha Rhine. What country wanted
the war? Let us put a different ques-
tion: What circles in every country
wanted, facilitated, or began the war?
1f, instead of a horizontal section
through Europe, we take a vertical
section through society, we find that
the suer of guilt was ie the Cabinets,
the sum of innocence in the streets
of Europe.
"In no country had the man at the
machine, in the workshop, or at the
plough any desire to break the peace,
or any interest In doing so, Every,
where the lower classes feared war,
and fought against it till the eleventh
hour. The Cabinets, on the other
hand, the War Offices and interested
circles that worked with them, the
ministers, generals, admirals, war
contractors, and journalists, were
driven forward by ambition and fear,
by Incapacity and greed, and drove
the masses forward in their turn. The
less control a Government had to
fern', the heavier Is its historical re.
spousihillty. For this reason, while
exact calculations of relative respon-
sibility are impossible, one can say
that Vienna and Petersburg stand
first, their seconds, follow them, al-
though at very different intervals;
London comes a long way after.
