Fletcl1er’s Castoria is strictly a remedy for Infants and Children. Foods -are specially prepared for babies. A baby's medicine is even more essential for Baby. Remedies primarily prepared for grown-ups are not interchangeable. It' was the need of a remedy for the common ailments of ~Infants and Children that brought Castoria before the public after years of research, and no claim has been made for it that its use for over 30 years has not proven.

broken," said a corre- spondent of the London

Times who left Berlin at the end of January. "There is no dignity in the Way they carry their defeat." Com- Daring the way in which the Gs- inans take their loss of the war with the way the French acted after 1871. the correspondent continued:

"The Germans seem to have lost

all spirit of enterprise. Only the most necessary work is done, and even that is badly done. Nobody seems to care. Nothing ls' done to iransform the factories which had served the

purposes of war into factories for Peace production. in some of them the workmen are kept and paid,

though thc works stand still. The workmen pass the day playing cards. But do not think they are saiished. ln one factory where not a stroke of work had been done for months the workmen, or card players. even asked for an increase of pay ami a six-hour day. When this was refused they threatened to strike.

“Capitalists do not dare to invest

their money in industry, mines or commerce, but try to smuggle it. out oi' the country out of reach of sociali- zation and taxes. Several people ivhom I did not even know came and offered me large sums if I would smuggle their money and securities into a neutral country.

“When Germans discuss defeat, as

they often do even with strangers, they never admit that they were beaten in a military sense. One often hears the expression ‘our in- vincible field grays.’ They admit two causes of di-fezit, the British blockade and British propaganda; those to- gether shook the morale of thc peo- ple and prepared fhe revolution. That oven a decisive battle was fought be- tween Canibrai and St. Quentin they ignore, as well as the fact that the final blow of Marshal Foch's offcn- sive was to_bo delivered by Gen. Castelnau in the south about Nov. 15, which, of course, was known by thc German negotiators and prompt- ed their dcclsion to accept uncondi- tional surrender.

“It seems to me that only the So-

cialists in Germany understand that the basis of thc armistice was nn un- conditional capltulation; tho others seem to imagine that the ariiiisiice was a kind of preliminary peace in which Germany obtained certain giiaranlees on the basis of Mr. Wil- son‘s fourteen points. Only thc So- cialists admit that the situation is such that thc German Government will havc io accept the Allies’ peace conditions, however hard they are. But the Democrats still make an at- tempt to show some national pride, or perhaps kccp up the national bluff dear to thc old government. They often say that if the peace condi- tions go one single inch further than Mr. Wilson's points thc Germans will have been cheated, and the Govern- nicnt may rcfusc to sign them.

"The Socialists hate war too sin-

ccrcly to think of revenge, evcn if they also would resent u diminuallon of Gorman tcrrltory and hea,-vy in- dnmnitics. But the Conservatives are chauvinists, and preach revenge whatever may happen."

Pill-making Crabs. , These tiny creatures, most. of

which are about the size of a pea, are in abundance on the shores of the Malay Peninsula. They are usually iirst noticed on the beaches after the going out of the tide, when they make the beach look covered with loose, powdery sand and holes of var- ious sizes. Upon looking more close ly' it is seen that little paths con- verge in the sand to each hole and that the sand itself is in minute balls.

At the approach of an observer

there immediately becomes apparent :i peculiar t.winklc_the simultane- ous and rapid retreat of a myriad of thc tiny crabs into their holes.

Should the watcher take up his

position by one of the holes and remain perfectly motionless, they will in time come out, when he can seo them at work.

Coming cautiously io the mouth

of the hole the crab will rcconnoitre. Satisfied that no enemy is near, it will venture about its own length from its lurking place. Thon, rapid- ly taking up particles of sand in its claws, it deposits them in a groove beneath lis thorax. '

As it docs so a little ball of sand

is rapidly projected iliroiigli its mouth. This onc put aside, the pro- cess being repeated iinill the smooth bf-acli is corcrcd with little pellets or pills. This is evidently thc crah’s method of extraciing particles of food from the sand.

Ancient Botany.

The oldest botanical work in thc

world is sculptured on the walls of a room in the great temple of Karnak at Thebes, in Egypt. It represents foreign plunls brought home by an Egyptian sovereign, Thotme-si III, on his reiiim from a campaign in Ara- bia. Tho sculptures show not only- the plant or tree. but the lsav<>s,» fruit and seed pods separately, after- ihe fashion of modern botanical treatises.

A New Discovery.

composed of n mixture of a special clay and cork, has been discovered by a Norwegian engineer. The clay and cork mixture is burned, and the re- sult is the formation of a very light substance that is said to be eminently suitable for all heat insulating Dur-

and she accepted by wire, and neither message was delivered.

. _.,. _Q

Every day he shall march 15 miles

with full pack and equipment, carry- ing a quick-llrlng rifle and n load of hand-grenades. He shall wears trench helmet and never be allowed to take it ol. _ `

At the end of his 15-mile march

he shall be made to cross marshy ground with water up to his waist.

He shall be made to walk down

sudden communication trenches in which telephone wires shall have been artfully arranged so as to en- tangle him.

He shall spend every night in n

narrow trench, in which n few dozen rats shall be kept, and near which there will lie some decaying car- cases.

As soon as he begins to doze off a

few hand-grenades shall be exploded, as well as a mine, which should throw him bodily some ten yards away. ` Every night he shall be made to walk for two hours in the dark across broken ground, and to cross several wire entanglements while carrying cases of hand-grenades.

As for_ hygiene and comfort, he

shall change his iinderclothes only on the first of each month, so as to heconie ii. prey to vermin; he shall be allowed to wash on that day only.

For rations, hevshall be entitled to

one tin of bully~beef per days, with a quarter of at loaf`of bread, and, as an appetiser, some sardines in oil; hc shall drink either water oi' sour wine, half u pint for each meal.

This shall last for 365 days in thc

year. During the meal hours one might improve his mind by reading aloud to him selected passages from Bochc philosophers, in lieu of the customary reading of the comiiiunl- que.

Thus porlieps he might be made to

realize the sufferings endured by millions of men who, through his fault, were sent to the slaughter.

No Hindu 'Caiiusi us.

All able-bodied members of thc

Hindu family must contribute their labor and earnings, whether of per- sonal sklll or agriculture and trade, to the common stock; weaker meni- bers, Widows, orphans and destitute relations, all must be maintained and supported; sons, nephews, brothers, cousins, all must be treated equally. for any iiudue prefcrenco is apt to break up the family.

We ha-ve no word for cousins-

they are either brothers or sistcrs-- and we do not know what are cousins two degrees removed. The cliildrcn of o. first cousin are young ncpliows and nieces just the same as tho chil- dren of your brothers or sisters. Thc family affections, thc family ties, are always very strong, and tlicrcforc the maintenance of an equal stand- ard among so many members is noi so diillcult as it may appear at first eight.

Moreover, life is very simple. Un-

til recently shoes wcro not iii gen- eral use at home, but sandals without any lcuther fastenings. I have known of a well-to-do middle class family of several brothers and cousins who had two or three pairs of lcnllici' shoes between them, these shoes bc- ing only used when they had occasion to go out, and the slime practice is still followed in the caso of the more expensive garments, .like shawls, which last for generations, and with their age are treated with loving care, as having been used by ances- tors of revered memory.

The jointfamily remains togcihcr

sometimes for several generations until it becomes too iinwicldly, when it breaks up inio smaller families, and you thus see whole villages peo- Dled by members of the some clan. --Bhupendrauath Basu in Journal of the Itoyal Society of ArLs.

afternoons inside baking cookies and pastries, the woman who would spend her Sun- days cooking ram- lly dinners. can't be bought for love

or money.

Women have

discovered that they, too. want to live. You won't find ii woman who will toll and spin 24 hours a day and smile at the end of it and say. "All's right with

the world."

Thank goodness for that! It is a

fortunate thing that the entirely un- seldsh woman no longer exists or that any woman who still is constituted af- teri this fashion is not appreciated these days.

We don't want martyrs in our homes

any more. The day of slaves is gone, the woman who still has no time for self-development-whlcli is -what the "selfish" women of today are doing-is out of place. The labor-saving house- hold devlces were not invented ns or- naments. They were iuvcntcd so that women would use them und have time to become more wonderful and better as a result. -

The world ls too wide-awake to be

able to tolerate a woman who can speak only of how she starches cur- tains and how she cooks herpotroiist tender. The world wants women who road the newspapers, who know some- thing of the progress of science and invention, who take more than a cas- uul peep out- their back doors. The unsclfish woman who sacrifices herself for her home to such an extent that she cannot develop hcr iulnd and soul is a creature of the dnrk ngcs. We want the "selfish" women who have learned how to devote the lcnst time to ,irksome dutics and the greatest amount of time to iuiproving their minds and making themselves iinppy.

HARMONY IN THE WARDROBE

Combinations of Colors May Be Adopt- ed, Enabling Each to Have Own Color Scheme.

Ever since she hecame old enough to

have any serious thoughts about her personal appearance, xi ccrtnln girl has had a dcslre for perfect harmony in dress. 'The combination of a purple dress. a red hat and a brown coat, for instance, distressed her.

A scant purse made it lmpossiblefor

her to purchase n complete new outfit every time one new garment was add-

ed to the wardrobe. so she conceived.

the ldcn of iidoptlng a color scheme for lierself. She chose blue and brown, as thcsc had nliviiys been favorite and becoming colors. These colors combine bi-nutltully, never clash, and the comblnntioucnn be found in ma- terials suitable to all seasons and oc- casions. After she made up her mind ,she was never tempted to depart from her rule of purchasing garments in some shade of her adopted colors only. and soon perfect harmony prevailed in her wardrobe.
