To speak of the "comforts of home" in connection with life in the trenches seems a glaring misuse of language, yet that is the term that a correspondent of the Associated Press applies to the quarters of the Bavarian soldiers in northern France.

There used to be a legend that the hardships of campaigning strength- med the constitutions of those who escaped the missiles of the enemy. Professor Landouzy, dean of the Paris Faculty of Medicine, has made recently an important pronouncement on the subject. According to the London Hospital, Landouzy forecasts that the war will contribute at least 10,000 tuberculosis patients to France alone. The explanation he gives is simple and convincing: The terrible htigue which the soldiers on the ftr.. " line must endure leaves its per- manent marks. The resistance of many of the soldiers is reduced. Then a large number of men who once were hberculous but who have been "eured" have enlisted. For them a return of the disease is extremely probable. The sick soldiers in the ordinary routine would be discharged from the "my. Landouzy nukes a plea for them. They are we: invalids, he de- elnm, as much as m the wounded.

"To the rear of these trenches, far underground. are so-called Unter- stande, or shelters, where the soldiers live when not on duty. These places are surprisingly comfortable, under the circumstances. Most of those oc- cupied by the offieers are provided with big four-post-beds.

Once there came I cough iii a sneeze. A person suffering from hemor- rhage, or extreme loss of blood, ex- hibits symptoms that correspond in severity with the quantity of blood that he has lost. It is sstonlshing to see how much blood a person can lose without serious danger to life, but it is only by watching these symptoms that the observer can judge when the danger point is ap- proaching. Pallor, of course, appears early, sccomponied by a weak and rapid pulse, and a fall in the tem- perature of the body. If the hemor- rhage is violent, and is not checked, the mucous membranes also grow pale, and the patient may break out into a cold sweat. He usually com- plains of thirst, and he should be per- mitted to drink freely. _ More ominous symptoms are those that show the higher centres-the brain and the heart-are being starv- ed by lack of blood. Vomiting is one of these symptoms, unless it is caus- ed by the mere presence of blood in the stomach. If that is not the case then the vomiting is serious, be.. csuse it means that the lack of blood is cousins an acute anemia of the higher centres. A late symptom, serious for the same reason, is rest- lestness. When that is followed by loss of sight, and then of conscious- ness, it means that unless the loss of blood can be checked the result must be fatal.

What these means are must depend on the state the patient is in and the site of the bleeding. If that is easily reach- ed the hemorrhage can be stopped by packing, or by pressure, or by binding with ligatures. Sometimes the state of the patient is such that it is best to stop the flow by the pressure of the hand or fingers, while other steps are taken to relieve the constitutional symptoms of shock and collapse.

I The'two ships, therefore, travel in a straight line fastened together, while from the mast of the collier to the deck of the warship stretches a [transport cable for carrying coal l, bags. Sacks of coal that weigh a ton are hoisted from the foot of the col- lier's mast to a platform at its head, below which there is a net to protect deck hands from falling pieces of coal. By means of wheels that run on the cable, automatic winches force the load along the sloping transport line at a rate of three thousand feet a minute. On reaching the deck of the battleship the load is automatically re- leased, and the transport starts on its return journey. By means of this apparatus sixty tons of coal can be carried every hour across the Cap of water that sepa- lrates the supply ship from the battle- i, ship. The great advantage is that (both vessels can move at the rate of IGd knots an hour while the coal- ‘1 ing goes on. ' No one could remember, and they laughed together at their own silli- ness.

Thus there is a great difference between fats and other foods as to their food value. Collier and War Vessel Do It Sailing Twelve Miles an Hour. How the British vessels of war are coaled, while sailing through heavy seas at a rate of twelve miles an hour, without hindering their activities in any way, is told in the Manchester Guardian. A collier, packed to the hatches with coal, gets into touch by wireless with a battleship whose bunkers need to be replenished. On sighting the vessel, the supply ship manoeuvres un- til it is within four hundred feet of the battleship. The collier then dis- patches a small boat that carries two cables; one end of each is attached to the masthead of the supply vessel. The lines pay out as the boat ad- vances, and when it reaches the war- ship the sailors fasten the cables to the stern of the ship on the port and starboard sides. “It’s us!" cried back two familiar voices, and suddenly the rest of the hay mil fell.

When we come to study desserts adapted particularly to summer pur- poses we flnd they ought to be neither excessively sweet nor exces- sively rich in fats.

All of Shakespeare's ladies appear with little money purses of satin or velvet, and, so far As we have ob- served, they never carry anything more than a “hunky" in them. Not so the real woman. I saw a beautiful live Juliet the other, day carrying a guliet of satin brocade, and she took from its luscious and expensive depths more articles than were ever dug from the pocket of a busy small boy whose business was that of col- lecting. The cor-sage is a mere wisp of chiffon-nothing more than a high girdle, in Net-with narrow shoulder bands, from which flutter bits of flow- ing chiffon caught with more blue roses. There is a narrow band at the waist of dull blue brocade, laced front and back corslet-fashion, a little vogue note that prevails just now and which is youthful and pretty and gives the little curve at the waist which is much sought-after years of straight front and huge waist lines.

It shows up everywhere, in every col- or, on every kind of a woman and of every kind of a silk that looms ever contrived to weave.

"There', not much Petticoat rule nowadays, in spite of votes for wo- men,' was said. Many women make the mistake of carrying these elaborate bags when they are attired in everyday costume. Such'grand affairs are really for tea- dances and other dress-up affairs. One looks overdecorated lugging about a gold-lace-trimmed silken Juliet when one wears a serge gown and a plain sailor. Good dressing requires a lit- tle heavy thinking, and that is why it is desirable that the feminine packs shall pay heed.

The black powdery ma- terial is made up of the spores. These spores serve the same purpose to the fungus as the seed of wheat does to the wheat plant. Each spore on com- ing in contact with the particular grain which it attacks and being placed under favorable conditions, will cause that particular kind of smut. It has been estimated that one smut ball in wheat may contain over a million spores. In the case of the “Stinking Smut" or "Brunt," which is the common smut in wheat in this locality, the “Smut Balls" are burst either at threshing time or by hand- ling, and the spores stick to the grain. The fungus passes the winter in this state. When the seed is sown and germinates the spores also ger- minate, and the very line fungus threads enter the young wheat plant. This is the only time that Infection can take place. These very fine threads follow up the growing stem, they had been with gaus"--Aets iv., 18. It was rather a representative group, including a lawyer, a physi- cian, a stock broker and a clergyman. The general opinion was that Christ was an extraordinarily good man. Then the clergyman changed the tsub.. ject. He spoke of literature and the drama and dwelt upon the compelling character that genius had put into books and upon the stage. He men- tioned great names in history. The group was a well-read body of men, and the discussion became general up to the inevitable lull, when the clergy- man began to ask questions. A Description From An Ancient Mnnuscript Seht By the Presl- dent of Judea to the Senate of Rome. To show that by carefully treating the seed, smut con be prevented, one hss only to note how successful some farmers have been in controlling the disease. On one farm visited the fur- mer treated all his oats except those sown on one sore. This scre is from M to 80 per cent. smut, while in the rest of his crop there is not more than a fraction of one per cent. of smut. Another man, who treated all his seed, and he claims that he had quite a lot of smut last year, but this year he has very little smut compared with the field. of his neighbors, who did not treat their seed. In talking to an- other farmer, he states that his lose this year from smut will be $100. By way of experiment, a farmer treated the seed sown on part of a fleid and the remainder of the tUtd was sown with untreated seed. The crop grown from the treated seed has scarcely a head of smut, while that grown from the untreated seed is from 40 to 50 per cent. smut. This shows that the treating of the seed is quite effective in the control of the disease. The wheat crop, while not nearly so badly damaged as the oats, has in some sec- tions, where treating the seed has not been practised, quite a sprinkling of smut. A great my people Are of opinion that smut ll ceuud by weather and soil conditions at time of seeding. This is a mistake. Smut is n fungus disease, end unlesn the spores enun- lng the disease are present on the seed when it in put into the ground, there an be no smut that year. A glance at the lift history of the fun- gus will fully explain this point. "What Think Ye of Christ?" "So and so was indeed a stupendous character, but what would you tren- tlemen say is the when, defect in his nature?" There were instant re- plies. “Caesar was too ambitious." said one. "Bo and so must have been an epileptic" (this from the physi- cian), and there were flaws to pick at the mention of any name. Then the clergyman asked quietly, "What does any of you consider the deft in the eharaeter of Jesus '." There wu silence. "Gentlemen, pray do not con- sider my feelings or fear to offend me by anything you might be tempted to say of my Master; I am asking in reverent but intense curiosity." do} There Wu Still Silence.
