DISEASE BEATS THE GUN.
Eighty Per Cent. of Deaths in War
Due to Disease.
'Notwithstanding modern medical
science, eighty of the deaths in the
present war are due to disease, as
-agaireat twenty due t&, gun fire.
These are the figures compiled by
Dr. 1+. N. Sandwitlh, writing in the
Hospital, London, This same pro-
portion obtained during 'the Russo-
. Turkish war of 1877-78. During the
American Civil W.ar there were
three deaths to disease to every one
from wounds; that is to say, .a mor-
tality due to disease of sixty-six
and two-thirds per cent.
During the French expedition in
at ' •" Madagascar in 1895, according to
the writer, only ,twenty-nine deaths
occurred in action as against seven
thousand who died by disease. In
the Boer War the losses from dis-
ease were enornious, notwithstand-
ing the improvements in military
hygiene then in force,
The Japanese, however, during
the war with Russia, were .able by
exercising the most scrupulous care
to reverse the ratio. In the case of
their troops only one man died of
disease to every four who died of
wounds.

some other tempting bit of bread.
Here are some recipes; not >new,
but, nevertheless, good. Better,
perhaps, beeause they have been
tried and found satisfying and re-
liable. .
Plain Mullins. -- One egg, well
beaten; a tablespoonful of butter
and a tablespoonful of sugar, with a

powder thoroughly and add to the
first ;mixture alternately with the
milk. Bake in hot buttered gem
pans 25 minutes.
Sour Cream Biseuits:-four cup-
fuls flour, one teaspoonful soda and
one teaspoonful salt sifted together,
one pint sour cream, Roll. out on a
floured board, having the dough
one inch thick. Cut with biscuit
cutter and put the biscuits in a
greased pan just, touching each
other. Bake frons twelve to fifteen
minutes in a hot oven.
Cornmeal Rolls. -1% cupfuls of
white flour, three-quarter cupful of
cornmeal, four teaspoonfuls baking
powder, one-half teaspoonful salt,
one tablespoonful sugar, two table-,
spoonfuls of butter, one egg, three-
quarter cupful of milk. All mea-
surements level. Mix and sift dry
ingredients into a bowl, chop but-
ter in with knife, beat egg, add milk
and add all to dry ingredients to
make a soft dough that can be han-
dled;
andled; add more milk if necessary
turn onto a floured board, toss
lightly and roll out one-half inch

ter, put a piece of butter size of a
pea in centre of each round; fold
round in centre so opposite edges
meet, put 'onto a buttered baking
sheet; rub the top with milk and
bake in a quick oven twelve to fif-
teen minutes.
Coffee Buns. - Sift together two
quarts of'ilour, a pinch of salt and
a teacupful of fine granulated su-
gar. Make ahole in the middle of
this, pour in one pint of home-made
yeast, and mix thoroughly; then
stir in one-half teacupful of melted
butter. Mix to astiff batter with
lukewaran sweet milk; knead into a
smooth dough and let it stand in a
warm place overnight. In the morn-
ing knead again, roll out 'lightly
and cut with .a biscuit cutter. Put
in a greased baking pan, allowing
about one-half inch between. Brush
the tops with snilk and sprinkle -with
granulated sugar. Bake in a mod-
erate oven for about 30 minutes."
Southern Corn Bread. -Sift two
cupfuls of cornmeal twice with an
even teaspoonful of soda and as

a. tablespoonful of melted butter;
lastly the prepared flour. Have
ready three we'll -greased deep jelly
cake tins (warmed), divide the bat-
ter between them and bake in a

Some Flourless Recipes.
In these days when flour is rapid-
ly increasing in price, housewives
should try and see what they ,can
accomplish in the bakery line with-
out the aid of that usually all-im-
portant item -flour. The 'recipe for
'Potato Biscuit" should prove
good. Take two •cups flour, three
tablespoons shortening, three tea-
spoons salt, two cups mashed pota-
toes, about two cups milk. Mix as
ordinary biscuit and roll thin. Bake
in' quick oven.
Another one for "Bran Bread"is
given, and to any housewife whose
income has not risen with the price
of foodstuffs, either of these recipes
should be of value in helping to feed
a hungry brood. Bran Bread. -One
cup molasses, two teaspoons baking
soda (dissolved in hot water and
added to molasses) ; stir well until
batter foams, then add one pint
of sweet or samilk, one quart of
bran, two cups
ps of wheat flour, one
teaspoon salt,. Mix well and bake
one hour in slow oven, This makes
,two good-sized 'loaves.of fine health
bread..

are not so well known, .All the most

Many people when they contract
a slight cold do not pay any attention
to it, thinking perhaps that it will pass
away in a day or two. The upshot is
that before they know it, it has settled
on their lungs,
Too much stress cannot be laid on the
fact that on the first sign of a cough or
cold it must be gotten rid of immediately,,
as failure to do this may cause years of
suffering fromserious lung trouble.

THE TOLL GATHERER
i J (
� I
The fall rains had undermined a
section of the track and played mis-
chief with a quarter of a mile of
embankment. Whaa:.lw Diose seri-
ous, the hill stream, sijiich had `risen
like the .Ganges at flood time, had
weakened two piers and the .retain-
ing walls : of' the railway bridge.
Doucy, one of the company's civil
engineers, had been sent up post-
haste from Delhi to repair the dam-
age. He was to get the day labor-
ers from the village three or • four
miles down the valley. They had
helped in building the road, and
•could therefore be relied upon.
Doucy found the job bigger than
he had expected. The wrecked em-
bankment did not present unusual
difficulties, but the repairing of the
stone work was a more serious mat-
ter. Under the pressure of the
seething flood, the big scows that
held the workmen were continually
slipping their cables, and either
taking a few tons of wateraboard
at 'a gulp or sinking altogether.
Then the donkey engine had to fish
out as many of the stone blocks as
its grappling hooks could• seize and
yank up the scow. The men cling-
ing to the network of life ropes be-
low the bridge had to be rescued
and .induced to attempt the danger-
ous work again; all of which used
up valuable time.
As the camp was large, it was
necessary to send a bullock cart to
the village every other day for rice,
mealie flour, and other food sup-
plies. During the second week' one
of the carts did not return. The
next day a foreman who had gone
to -investigate found it in the road
With a broken -necked bullock be-
tween its. shafts. Some twenty or
thirty yards from the rim of the
bank that ran along the roadside
lay all that was left of the driver.
The spoor of a large tiger led off
into time jungle, but Doucy and his
trackers failed to run the beast
down.
Several days later the tragedy
was repeated. Another dead bul-
lock lay in the red dust almost at
the same point where the first had
been killed, At the tail of the cart
was -the driver's empty gun; the
body of the. driver was found under
a tangle of flowering creepers.
Doucy ordered a goat and its kid
to be tethered on the bank, and
that night and the, night after he
took up the watch on a little plat-
form built in the branches of an
adjacent tree. But the tiger did
not appear. As he had to keep
himself fit for his work, the engi-
neer let one of his assistants .take
his place in time tree on the follow-
ing nights. Meanwhile the cart was
sent out with a, bodyguard of four
picked men besides the driver, and
thus escorted, at made several trips
without mishap,
The coolies began to snap their
fingers when the toll -gatherer, as.
they had dubbed the tiger, was men-
tioned. He was a coward, they de-
clared. He could overpower a driver
asleep on his cart, but his heart
failed hien when it came to facing
several armed men. They would
burn his whiskers on the camp coals
yet if he did not look out.
Suddenly, however, a mad bullock
cart came spinning into camp with
the ashen -laced driver crouching
among' its rice bags. All the others
had been killed and eaten, he de -
elated; only his own extraordinary
courage had saved his life. The at-
tack had come like a bolt from the
blue, and no vigilance could have
forestalled it. Presently three of
the escort, dust and covered with
sweat, came running into camp ; the
fourth had been killed. The sur-
vivors all agreed that everyone had
been brave and that the toll -gath-
erer was invulnerable.
Everyone now realized that this
was an unusually determined man-
eater. The coolies refused to drive
the supply cart, and were almost
ready to break casmep in a body.
Doucy saw that he must himself get
rid of the toll -gatherer if he wished
to retain his -workmen.
He made his arrangements with
some ingenuity, Out of some
brown cloth and a framework of
bamboo he put together a figure
that when stuffed with grass was a
fair imitation of a man. He wound
a dirty turban round its head, add-
ed clippings from the tail of his
horse for hair, and roped the thing
to the seat of the cart. The fol-
lowing day he got into the body of
the cart with his rifle and drove to
the village.
Nothing happened on that rip or
the next, but Doucy. did.. not give
up. On the third, trip he kept as
close a watch as ever, and was par-
ticularly careful on his way back
from the village. It was a very hot
afternoon. The groaning and
squealing of the ' =oiled wooden
ceiving,that it could not escape in
that direction, it wheeled again
sharply. The quick turn tipped
over the badly balanced part; it.
eaxne down like a box on Doucy and
the provision bags.
All this happened in half a dozen
seconds. Doucy had hardly realized
his position when he beard a moan-
ing bellow from, the bullock, and
knew that the tiger had grappled it.
Pinned on his back between tlto
provision bags, Doucy felt the toll -
gatherer give the dead bullock a
tug that made the solid cart quiver;
but the harness held. The tiger
Was puzzled, and the first time he
snarled. The sound -was powerful
and murderous. . Then the tiger
started to .circle the cart to :see
what the matter was. When he had
gone halfway round, his footfalls
ceased, and Doucy heard his heart
pumping and thudding in the ghast-'
ly 'silence.
Then he became aware that one of
the tiny chinks between the bags no
longer 'showed a thread of . sunlight.
Something had blocked it. He knew
what it was before he heard the deep
raucous intake of air with which the
tiger drank the odor of human flesh.
Doucy struggled to reach the rifle
lying under ,his feet. The toll -gath-
erer tore at the obstructions. With
a dry and horrible sound his claws
ripped one of the bags. •
As the great paw gutted it of its
contents, Doucy felt the bag loosen;
then it collapsed like a deflated bal-
loon, and the cart settled a little on
that side. It relieved his cramped
position just enough to enable him
to grasp his - rifle. He instantly
thrust the muzzle under the edge of
the cart.
He had not a second to waste and,
with the butt of his rifle pressed to
his side, fired where he knew the
beast must be. The answering
roar of tine tiger showed that he had
been hit ; but he was not crippled,
for he threw himself upon the cart
with great fury and tried to tear
away the side with his teeth. Fail-
ing in that, he pushed his paw un-
der the edge of the cart, and his
unsheathed claws, sweeping fierce-
ly through the low opening, nar-
rowly missed Doucy's face.
Doucy aimed again instantly and
fired. The toll -gatherer gave an-
other roar that ended in a deep,
gurgling cough that told of a wound
through the lungs: Doucy heard
a heavy thrashing sound and the
rattling of gravel against the side
of the cart. Then everything was
as still as death except for the
pounding of his own heart.
Bathed with sweat and half stifled
by the close, hot air under the cart,
he waited a long time, There was
no sound outside except the buzzing
of hundreds of flies about the bul-
lock.
At last Doucy began to push

Verse 1. Israel went out against
the Philistines to battle. -The Phil.
istines were last mentioned in
Judges, chapters 13 and 16. It was
evident that Israel was not able to
-throw off the yoke of the Philis-
tines. This .servitude lasted . for
forty years (Judg. 13. 1). It termi-
nated about the twentieth year of
Samuel's judgeaabip (1 Sam. 7. 13,
14).
Eben-ezer, "stone of help," and
Gilgal, ""heap -of -stones,' bad a spe-
cial significance (Josh. 4. 20). Eben-
ezer is at the bead of the vale of
Sorek, where Israel defeated the
Philistines (see next lesson, 1 Sam.
7. 12).
Aphek means fortress. It was one
of the strongholds of Samaria in
northern Sharon, where tine Philis-
tines assembled twice, once before
they invaded Israel and ones be-
fore they crossed the _plain of Ess-
draelon, It was not far from the
Mizpah of Benjaanin, and was un-
doubtedly the Aphek of Josh. 12. 18.
3. People means the .army. The
elders had a council on the evening
of the defeat and resolved to send
the ark of the covenant of the
Lord in battle.
Wherefore hath Jehovah smitten

This was the cry of the former time
