TOY MAKERS IN TRENCHES.
Spent Bullets and Shrapnel Splin-

The correspondent of the Neue
Zuricher Zeitung tells of trvo interest-
ing episodes of trench warfare on the
Western front, which indicates that
now and then there are some pleas-
ant moments to relieve the monotony
of the soldier's life.
"Among the German troops," he
says, "a new industry has been de
veloped in the trenches. From the
spent bullets of the French troops the _

they are enabled to make some extra

not send over enough shrapnel to
meet the demand.
