China is reported to be considering the restoration of the old canal system, system, of which there were at one time 60,000 miles within the empire.

He Is Highly-Trained, Efficient, and Self-Reliant Young Man. Cocky, cheeky, perky, essentially a boy of boys, the British midshipman has proved time and again during the stress and strain of North Sea watching, watching, and the myriad small sea affairs that have happened during the war, that he is the equal of the best and oldest of veterans when the real thing, with all its grisly horror and deliberate, deliberate, machine-made slaughter, comes to the great silent service, writes Admiral G. R. Freemantle in London Answers. Caught young--at the age of thirteen--initiated thirteen--initiated into the alphabet of his profession at Osborne, developed in the magnificent sea-school at Dart- mounth,' he is taught in the training cruiser that his primary duty is to obey, and to go on obeying. His Varied Joys So when the midshipman comes at last into his own, and is included in the compliment of a great battleship, he is a boy no longer, but a highly- trained, efficient, and self-reliant young man. The curricula of his schools are far different from any found on shore. Instead of. Latin, with its boring declensions, declensions, the mysteries of astronomy and navigation have been opened before before him ; he has made a bosom pal of the sun, and gets him to tell him the time and the position his ship occupies occupies on the wild waste of waters ; he calls the stars by pet names ; guns and ammunition have 'been invested with charms peculiarly their own, and instead of handling shot-guns and potting potting at rocketing pheasants and grouse, as do the brothers he con- temptously terms "shore loafers," he juggles with gigantic pieces of ordnance ordnance firing half-ton shots, and often with real ships as targets, especially in these days. Boating is no longer a mere pas- GUARD BABY'S HEALTH IN THE SUMMER The summer months are the most dangerous to children.

The mother must a ^ ve by the soldiers. No one had "But the baker," they asked. "Where is the baker?" The baker had disappeared. No one knew what had become of him. His house had been burned down arid had fallen in a mass of calcined brick arid stone upon his baking ovens. Somehow,. no one knew how--the story could' not be traced--the tale grew that the baker had been thrust into one of his ovens and burned DUKE AS AN INDIAN CHIEF.

An Odd Sequel to a Heroic Defence By a Few French Soldiers. This is not primarily a story of murder. It is rather the story of the discovery of that murder, of the amassing of proof against the murderer, murderer, of the proof of that- old adage that "murder will out." There is something about blood guiltiness, _ it seems, that forces confession, writes Herbert Corey from Gerbervillers, France. Two years ago the Germans burned Gerbervillers. The world knows the story. Sixty chausseurs with a pair of machine guns held up a German army at the crossing of the little river that runs through this rural village. The German artillery had not come up, by which the sixty might have been blown away. The river was in flood and could not be forded. No army can charge down time; it is a seurce STdSiJ LS! 8 ™a seen it. Burned Him Alive. No one could be found who had been told this grisly thing by a German. German. But the tale was there. It .would not be forgotten. "Let us search his ovens," the villagers villagers have asked Sister Julie, that nun who has more courage than an army corps, and who drew her six trembling sister nuns in line behind her to oppose a Gerinan army, and who opposed it successfully. Nothing appeals more quickly to the Germans than that sort of courage. But Sister Sister Julie pooh-poohed the idea. "Who heard the story first ? " she asked. "Give me some proof there is truth in this story before we go dig Doomed. Anxious Mother--"Young Millyuns seems to be quite friendly with you of late.

It was his first permission permission during the war. For two years he had only known that his home town had been stamped out of existence.

A kite- balloon appears to be reared up on one end, as if the ballonet were weighted and .dragging the rest of the vessel almost perpendicular. These observation balloons are held captive by means of a strong wire cable. The cable is held and paid out 'by an engine stationed on the ground. In a light wind a bajloon may even be "anchored" to a motor vehicle. The observers in the basket of the balloon are in telephonic communication communication with the "station" below, which in turn is in telephonic touch with the artillery. At a height., of six hundred feet the range of vision is twenty-eight miles, and the observers' work comprises both "spotting"-the effect of shell fire, and, if necessary, taking- photographs and making maps of the giound beneath beneath them.
