THE SEAL UL By EDWIN BAIRD. WHEN THE NILE CROSSED RED SEA FEAT ACCOMPLISHED BY GEN. ALLENBY. Old Prophecy Fulfilled When Arabia Regained • Her Freedom. "R'iten tin?

But could anything seem more im- possible of fulfillment? Surely not. And yet the mimeo bee been Drought to pass. The waters of the Nile have crossed over to Arabia and that country, so picturesquely in- teresting to students of history, has been freed of the Turkish yoke, Look at the map.

I.e:lu, is salty But the "sweet water canal" taps the river at a point far up, bringing northward a plentiful supply of Mild good to drink. It was Allenby who bit upon the idea of tapping the "sweet w -ter canal" and fetching its water by a "siphon" across the Suez canal In Ken- taro, whence it could be carried by pipe line though the desert into Arabia and as far ea the army might proceed. The array engineers undertook the business with great expeditiousness and in a remarkably short time a twelve -inch pipe wts laid, connecting the "sweet water canal" with Mes- tere. It wa,s of course, an iron pipe, and the sections required for crossing the Suez Canal were laid on the bot- tom of that waterway. It may be said here, by way of parenthesis, that the British, to help in the defense of the Suez canal, had resorted to a very curious and interest- ing expedient They dug out gaps in its banks in a number of places and therein put battleships, of abso•ete Pattern but formidably gunned, to serve at forts. As Allenby's army advanced a hail - road was built, keeping pace with it, to facilitate transportation. In the beginning, before the pipe line was constructed, water was carried by camels to the workers and the troops guarding them, in tanks of galvanized iron, As the railroad progressed, the water was forwarded by rail and siphoned into canvas reservoirs erect- ed in convenient places. These reservoirs were called 'eater dumps,' and were made of water- proofed white or green canvas, their average capacity beingabout 2,300 gal- lons. From them the water was si- phoned into camel -borne iron tanks for distribution to the troops. "Cisterns" of Palestine. The railroad was built in stretches of five or ten miles and at the end of each stretch wells were sunk to pro- cure water for the horses and camels. Then a small partyof engineers would go ahead, protected by mounted troops and search for water. This method was pursued after the pipe line, which was carried steadily ahead through the desert, had been put into operation, for it was very de- sirable to economize the supply of drinking water for the soldiers, and the animals could get along well enough with the somewhat blackish fluid derived from welts. Experience proved that the most likely place to look for water was at the foot of one of those high sand dunes which, driven by wind, are per- petually though slowly travelling over the desert. Suclt a dune has a steep side—which is the side away from the prevailing wind—and at the bottom of this sand cliff was a good place to dig. It was found that a horse would drink water with six parts of salt in 1,000, A camel will acept water with fifteen parts of salt in 1,000, When Allenby's forces got as far as the Judean hills the problem of water solved itself in au entirely different way. It was still the rainless season and the country was so rocky as to offer little opportunity for well dig- ging. But, happily, during the march toward Jerusalem muds rain water was found stored front the previous 'winter in curious "cisterns" hollowed out of the rock. These are in many cases natural, having been merely im- proved by the natives. They aro like gigantic jugs, many of then twenty feet or more in diameter, but invari- ably with only a small opening at the ground level—a sort of bottle neck which, to prevent evaporation, is ens, temerity corked with a boulder, The most interesting part of the story, however, le the bringing of the Nile across the Red Sea. For that, in effect, was whatwas accomplished, in- asmuch as the Suez canal is a con- tinuation, though artificial of that body of water. And when the miracle was actually performed, Arabia, in obedience to the age•old prophecy, regained her freedom Orders Must Be Obeyed. A lieutenant was inspecting the tents after taps to see that all the lights were out. Approaching one tent that was between him and the noon, he commanded, "You in tent three, put that light out!

Hot water and sugar will give- practically ivepractically the same results. It is to be hoped that the supply will eventually equal the demand but economists are sounding warnings to those who have a tendency to extrava- gance in the use of this popular eon- mudity, For there is a world scarcity at present, and it is most probable that the supply will not be sufficient to •meet the demand for some year'.. This means that sugar will continue, to be expensive and that the wise housewife ]u planning the ,,upplces needed in the Monne for the next year or six months must take definite recognition of the increased expendi- ture necessary. We have accustomed the Canadian palate to too intense a flavor of sweet- ness and this is an excellent time to• snake a change.

It is an excellent sweetener, provid- ing we get the first grade. Iloney is the sweet of ancient times, pure and delicious. Bible references to it are numerous and indicate the esteem in which it was held. Its value as a source of enemy was early reeognized, Honey is as sweet as sugar and when used in cooking it is necessary to remember only its water content. Corn Syrup is a manufactured pro- duct and consequently contains no minerals and no vitamines. It is glu- cose. The process of manufacture used to -day results in a perfectly wholesome syrup which we need not fear to use as a sweetener. It is per- fectly digestible. Maple Syrup is the aristocrat among sweeteners. If your farm has yielded a supply of this delicious pro- duct, congratulate yourself. It can be used in jams, cakes, puddings, and ices and the delicious result will al- ways be remembered. Raisins and Dates are among the very best and most healthful sweet- eners obtainable in addition to the fact that they are themselves avail- able for dessert use.
