Qe order to make a thick dressing @ome people put the whole in a. bot- te and we)!, ; ssed another time. Perhaps a bet- ter way to make it is to put a half teaspoon of salt and some pepper with the requisite amount of vine- gar in a shallow bowl and then whip the oil into it, just as in mak- ing mayonnaise. This' will make a thick, creamy dressing, which should be used as soon as whipped, as it will quickly separate. The French call this dressing both FY Vinaigrette and a marinade. It fe called a vinaigrette dressing when #@ fs used with cold boiled meats, and allowed to rest in it un- til seasoned. It is called a marin- ade when pieces of raw meat or fidh are dipped in it, or, preferably, allowed to lie in it an hour before broiling. Nearly all the fish steaks ere improved by this treatment, some slices of onion or some onion Juice being added to heighten the seasoning. Like mayonnaise, addi- tions of various sorts are made to -the French dressing.

The general of brigade wished Allenbys division to lead the triumphal procession into the town; it had taken the hon- ors in the fie'd, and was to be sent to the top of the class. But, though first in every attack, Allenby de murred when it came to a parade of victory. He excused himself with 'my men and horses-are fatigued,"' and came quietly in the day after. A Letter of Condolence, Of General Allenby's cordial re- Jations with his junior officers no better indication can be given than the letter-he wrote to Lady Cham- pion de Crespigny : "Dear Lade de Crespigny--I and the whole of the cavalry division sympathize with you and we feel deeply for Nor- man's (Lieut. Claude Norman Champion de Crespigny) loss, But I must tell you he died a hero's death.

It is just because he is a soldier through and through that he is several other things besides. and can sit down while a battle is raging to write a perfect letter of condolence.

It was really beneath his dignity them. owever, his silence was due to the absolute use- 'lessness of his speaking. 13. Hearest thou not how many things they witnees against thee -- The leaders and the multitude were unbridled in their speech. They were making whatsoever accusa- tions against Jesus happened to come into their minds. 14. Insomuch that the governor marveled greatly--The accusations against Jesus evidently were 680 irrelevant and immateria] that Pi- date supposed'a word or two from Jesus would clear him.

Now at the feast the governor was wont to release unto the multi- tude one prisoner, whom they would--The governors of Rome ait had sufficient knowledge of the Jewish tenacity to know that it was best not to cross them if there was no absolute necessity for so doing. Hence they had accustomed them- selves to make certain concessions, such as the releasing of a prisoner at the time of passover 16. A notable prisoner called Barabbas--The original has Bar abban. If the spelling were Bar rabban the phrase would mean "son of a rabbi." Bar abban is the ac- eusative of Bar abbas and means "son of a father."

His-wife sent unto him--The incident of Pilate's wife is histori- cally doubted. Why, is not clear. The wives of Roman provincial gov- ernors were privileged to accom- pany their husbands to the pro- vinces (Tacitus, Annals III., 32- 34); so her presence is probable. 'Being present, she would have been greatly stirred by the arrest and trial of Jesus, for even in the inner household of the governor Jesus was known.as.a righteous man. Her reference to him as that righteous man shows well how he was.known. She knew her husband better than he himself and feared he would not be equal to the wiles of the Jewish leaders. 20. Now the chief priests and elders persuaded the multitudes-- In epite of the fact that Jesus stood alone and unrepresented, much persuading evidently was necessary to get the multitude to prefer Bar- abbas to Jesus. 22. What then shall I do unto Je- sus who is- called Christ ?--Pilate had tried hard to escape passing judgment on Jesus. He was on Pilate's hands and Pilate knew not! what_to do with him. The plight of | this Roman official is truly pitiable, 23. Why, what evil hath he done? --The "why" is an exclamation of surprise. Pilate could not under- stand why the Jews wanted to kill esus.

Theyare not concerned about this aspect.of the matter. They are bent on carrying their point. To stop to answer ques- tions would have thrown them into confusion. 24. When Pilate saw that he pre- vailed nothing--He was powerless. On another oceasion a Jewish mob stood its ground against a Roman governor to his discomfiture. Pi- Cie evidently knew this and wanted no unfavorable report of his admin- istration, in this instance, to go back to Rome." His attempts to persuade the crowd in favor of Je- sus only raised a tumult. "Took Waiter and washed hie hands before the multitude--This was a Jewish custom which the Jews would un- derstand, The leaders of the Jews, at least, also understood how com- pletely Pilate was undone in the doing of this act: I am innocent of "scourging" was a barbarous prac- tice among the Romans from which Jesus was not té be exempt.

These are ail shrapnel and shell wounds. Whether the comparative harm- lessness of the rifle fire is to be maintained is doubtful. According to expert opinion the German rifle is the least deadly arm used in the Great War. It fires a bullet of only 154 grains, and at- tains the extremely high muzzle velocity of 2,882 feet per second. This light ball at high mee cuts through flesh so cleanly that the resultant wound hardly incommodes the victim. The British rifle is considered one of the best all-round weapons in the ;war. It carries a 215-grain bullet at a muzzle velocity of 2,060 feet. It is sighted up to 2,800 yards, be- ing the longest range rifle used in any of the armies, is short and easy to €Arry, and has ten shets in its Magazin® against five for any of the others.

FACTS IN MODERN WARFARE. Horse Is Still Used for the Courier Service. A column of infantry marching four abreast--the regular marching form--will pass a given point at the rate of 175 a minute. At that rate it will take a division, which con- tains about 10,000 men, aibout hour to, pass. A division will fully miles of trenches. The regulation. distance, in the manning of a trench is a yard to a man. -There are three lines, however, needed fully to man stich, defences--the fir- ing line, which is down in the trench, a yard between each man; the sunport, which is back a short distance, and the reserve, which is behind the support. These three parts of the defence are of equal size. In locating an enemy dust clos are often excellent indications. =, low, thick cloud indicates infantry, a high and thin cloud indicates cav- alry. while a broken cloud indicates artillery or wagon trains. An ex- perienced scout can closely estimate The the character and strength of an enemy solely by the dust cloud. An aeroplane, to be perfectly safe, must keep at an elevation of at least 4,000 feet above the ground.
