The following | been taken i in the Bull Club de { Humbert nen in ch { = Ever team of « information le appearing Saint Hubert ritten by Dr. ber of the club, now hospital at Bussang: mans attached a to each Jager (rifle) battalion, the employment of dogs in | the German army has steadily in- | creased, thanks to the close co-opera- { tion of the authorities with | practical dog men. Foremost in this | respec the Verein fur Deutsche | Sehaferhund (German Sheepdog | Club), founded in 1889, and now hasing more than 4,000 members. | This society, whose studbooks con- tain up to now about 45,000 entries, { also keeps a special register "in view of mobilization." While already in the studbooks the entry of each dog is accompanied by an abbreviated in- dication whether the sheepdog in question h been trained for police duty, ambulance work, patrol work, or domestic duties, this special . war register gives a more detailed infor mation on the same points. About 4,000 dogs are said to be on the register, which is carefully kept up to date. Side by side with the German Sheepdog Club exists the | German Club for Ambulance Dogs, specializing, as its name indicates, in the breeding and training of dogs suitable for retrieving wounded sol- diers. The dogs kept by mémbers of an artic of e Ger since military tis the twu societies form the reserve of | the canine units of the German army, and their owners were warned shortly { before the mobilization to hold them in readiness for requisition by the army. \ While the Jager battalions special- | ize in the employment of dogs for i patrol and sentry duty, they are em- ployed by other regiments as well, up to ten cogs being attached to each battalion. The ambulance detachments, which { Torm part of each German regiment, ! have generally four ambulance 'dogs that are taken out at the same time as the stretcher-bearers go out. The breeds chiefly employed are the so- called German sheepdog--they act- ually come from Alsace and Switzer- land--the Doberman Pinscher, the Airedale terrier, and more rarely the Rottweiler, a kind of cattle dog, and | the boxer, which latter has a long | strain of bulldog in him. Photographs on the Wing. Germany has employed many in- genious devices in the Great War, and ! surely one of the most unique is that ! of employing carrier pigeons for tak- | ing military photographs. Some years | ago the camera employed for this purpose was exhibited in Germany. | It was invented by Dr. Neubronna, | and was a wonderfully light instru- ment, weighing only 2% oz. The lens was only 2in. focus, and the photo- graph produced measured 1%in. | square. One of the models could take eight pictures in succession on a filmi, while another consisted of two ! distinct cameras. The lens of one ; pointed forwards and the other back- T wards When the "carrier" was in flight. In each case the exposure mechanism consisted of a bulb containing compressed air, by the slow escape of which through a ay aperture a lever was operated to release the shutter at the end of an interval of time which could be deter- | mined in advance. A Joke That Recoiled. Professor Ikeno of Tokio univer-! his absent- | i | 8ity is well known for | mindedness. One evening on his way from school, says the East and West News, he struck his head against a telegraph post, "Pardon me, pardon me," he said, and quiekened his gait, A certain colleague of the same uni- versity happened to see this from the other side of the street, and the fol- lowing day said to the professor: "I was surprised last night by your care- lessness, Mr. lkeno. You dashed against me in the street and I feel the pain still." "Oh, was it you?" was the reply. "Please excuse me. I did not know it was you. Jt felt wooden." Then a roar of laughter went round the pro- fessor's room, but at the expense of the colleague. . Amazing Appetites, If a baby had the appetite of a young potato beetle it would eat from fifty to one hundred pounds of food every twenty-four hours. If a horse ate as much as a caterpillar, ia pro- portion to its size, it would consume a ton of hay every twenty-four hours. A caterpillar eats twice its weight of leaves every day; but 4 potato beetle devours every day at least five times its weight in foliage, every bit of which represents just so much money to the farmer. The most destructive of all insects, ho! , is the grasshopper, which, whtn in good health, consumes in a { day mes its weight of vegeta- | tion. No Wonder that whele districts | are devastated by its multitudinous SWArms. Never a Spare Leg. cabby and the chauff~ur had a slight altercation, and the former, in approved sarcastic style, inquired: "And what's that pretty thing stuck up on the side?" "Way, that's a spare rim and tyre "in case any of the wheels go wrong-- a8 any sensible man knows." "Well, I've drove 'osses for nigh on twenty years, an' I ever carried a spare leg for one of "em yet!™ 4 Amber. Amber is belleved by the Turks to be an infallible guard against the in- Jurious effects of nicotine; hence its extensive use for mouthpieces of pipes.

Amateur theatrical companies are proverbially courageous, and perhaps that is the reason why the Puddle- combe Thespians selected "lolanthe" as the means by which they would astonish the natives. As every lover of Gilbert and Sullivan is, aware, one of the most effective scenés in the opera is the rising of lolanthe from the bed of a beautiful river, and it seemed that this scene would go par- ticularly well. The queen and fairies had sung their welcome well, the limelight was full on. "lolanthe! Come, Iolanthe!" sang the fairies, But lolanthe did not appear. The queen waved her wand franti- cally, and the fairies anxiogsly re- peated: "Iolanthe! Come, Iolanthe!" It was a tense moment, and the ex- citement had communicated itself to the audience. Again the invitation was repeated, and then a petulant voice from beneath the water's sil- very surfade was heard: . "Oh, do be quiet!" it said. you see I'm caught on a nail?" "Can't The Emblem He Selected. Lord Saye and Sele is a very strong opponent of "votes for women," apro- pos of which fact he has told an amusing story. He once attended a book dinner, at which all the guests were expected to appear with an emblem denoting the j ile uf & buot Lord Saye and Sele went in an ordinary evening dress, but be carried a lady's petticoat over his arm. No oné could guess what book he represented, but when he told them every one was greatly amused. g His lordship's emblem represented Kipling's famous book 'Life's Handi- cap." His lordship won the first prize. Submarine Position-Finder, submarine to find her own position under water, and will do away with | the dangerous necessity of coming to | the surface for that purpose, is an- | nounced by Mr. Hudson Maxim, the | inventor. Mr. Maxim says that the i implement permits the commander of | a submarine to find his position on a | map at any time, within a hundred | feet oF so. A position indicator, of a | cruiser design, Mr. Maxim claims, is now in use in practically all the navies of the world. Its installation on a submarine costs about $17,000, installed for enly $1,000. = The Vory First Time.

When you feel gloomy and depressed and cannot sleep, suspect your nerves. When you shrink from company and would rather be alone you are losing confidence in yourself, and that can only mean weak nerves.

But take Dr. Cassell's Tablets for such a cendition and you will be astonished at the results, astonished at the bright new health you will gain, at the splendid vigour and vitality they will give you. ® } Mr. Poole, a business man of 60 Infirmary Road, Sheffield, England, says :--* I had lost all confidence in myself, and was actually afraid to meet people.
