Great Britain is arranging a syetern of pensions for men broken in the iwar and for the dependents of men who have fallen in the war. The scheme is not yet complete because, owing to the peculiar composition of the British armies—more than five millions were raised by voluntary en- listment—the adjustment of a scale of pensions that shall be reasonable and fair to the varying degrees of sacrifice which men belonging to widely differing degrees of social sta.a tion made when they joined the col- ors is a complex business. The first difficulty arose when a proposal for a flat rate pension was under consideration. A general fiat rate was found impracticable. Five dollars a week in the case of an agri- cultural laborer would have been more than a peace -time wage, but for in- numerable other cases it would have been wholly inadequate. So a decision was made in favor of a low flat rate, to be supplemented according to vary- ing necessities. The low flat rate provides for a widow without children from 2.50 to $3 a week at the age of 35 and ra- ther lass than $4 at 45. There are increased allowances for widows with children ranging up to a total of $5.40 for a widow with four children and more if the mother is over 35. For motherless children the allow- ance is $1.20 a week. A man who is totally disabled will receive $6 a week, with more than 50 cents for each child, and a man partly dis- abled such an amount as with the wages which he may be deemed cap- able of earning will amount to $6 a week. A generous interpretation is to be placed on the term "disable- ment." A man in a condition of dis- ease which has been aggravated by war service will get four-fifths of the disability pension. For officers and their dependents there are different scales, and one new feature is that the widows of Lieutenants and Sub -Lieutenants will get the rates hitherto allotted to the widows of Captains. The ratesvary from $250 to $500 per annum, with rates for children ranging from $80 to $112. In all cases where an of- ficer was killed in action or died of wounds in the war the widow also gets a gratuity in addition to the pension. Officers up to the rank of Captain totally disabled will receive pensions of $750 a year for all be- low fifteen years' service, and $50 ad- ditional a year for each year of ser- vice in excess of fourteen, up to a maximum of $1,250. Higher ranksffi get higher rates. Pensions for o- cers partly disabled are proportioned according to the degree to which earning power is impaired. In cases where the impairment is only slight the officer may receive a gratuity up to $2,500 in lieu of a pension. An Odd Sequel to a Heroic Defence By a Few French Soldiers. This is not primarily a story of murder. ,It is rather the story of the discovery , of that murder, of the amassing. of proof against the mur- derer, of the proof of that old adage that "murder will out." There is something about blood guiltiness, it seems, that forces confession, writes Herbert Corey from Gerbervillers, France. Two years ago the Germans burned Gerbervillers. The world knows the story. Sixty chausseurs with a pair of machine guns held up a German army at the crossing of the little river that runs through this rural village. The German artillery had not come up, by which the sixty might have been blown away. The river was in flood and could not be forded. No army can charge down a narrow lane toward machine guns while the guns have cartridges and their men have marrow. It cannot be done. So that the Germans burned the town when the sixty chausseure finally ran short of cartridges and went quietly away. The Germans also led fifteen old men out into a pasture field and blinded their eyes and shot them down in groups of five. Many other things were done for Dee policy of terrorization was being tried out. The Germans still believed that war could be made so terrible that France would quit fight- ing—being a fresh proof of the Ger- man inability to understand the psy- chology of another people. The towns- people who remained during this, reign of terror were hysterical with fright, for the most part. It was only later they began to piece together from each other's story a comprehen- sive idea of what had happened. "But the baker," they asked. "Where is the baker?" The baker had disappeared. No one knew what had become of him. His house had been burned down and had fallen in a mass of calcined brick and stone upon his baking ovens. Somehow, no one knew how --the story could not be traced—the tale grew that the baker had been thrust into one of his ovens and burned alive by the soldiers. No one had seen it. - Burned Him Alive. A Wife's Wit. "I've got an awfully witty wife," boasts Solomon Beach. "I get most of my good stuff from her, to tell you the truth. Sometimes, though, her wit is a bit too sharp for comfort. Now, the other evening I came home feeling sort of mean. I had a corn that was rising thunder with me, and I wasn't in the best of humor. Well, I came limping up the walk and my wife stood at the door, eyeing me suspiciously. "What makes you walk so funny?" she said. "Corn!' 'I snapped, grduehily. "Oh," she said, turning away. "I thought maybe it was lye!" Brightens One Up There is something about Grape -Nuts food that brightens one up, infant or adult, both physically and mentally. What is It? Just its delightful flavor, and the nutriment of whole Wheat and barley, including their wonderful body and nerve building mineral ele- ments ! A crisp, ready -to -eat food, with a mild sweetness all its own ; distinctive, deli- cious, satisfying— Grape-Nuts "There's. a Reason!' Canadian Prawn, cereal Ca, Ltd., Whelan, Out, No one could be found who had been told this grisly thing by a Ger- man. But the tale was there. It would not be forgotten. "Let us search his ovens," the vil- lagers have asked Sister Julie, that nun who has more courage than an army corps, and who drew her six trembling sister nuns in line behind her to oppose a German army, and who opposed it successfully. Nothing I appeals more quickly to the Germans than that sort of courage. But Sis- ter Julie pooh-poohed the idea. "Who heard the story first?" she asked. "Give me some proof there is truth in this story before we go dig- ging in a pile of dust ruins. There are more important things to do. Who is to feed my old people and my little ones while you please your- self by idly digging about in dusty ruins?" The story would not die. It had an amazing vitality. Of all the stor- ies of murder in Gerbervillers this one seemed the most enduring and the most fragile. It rested upon not an atom of proof, but every one be- lieved it except hard-headed Sister Julie and her six nuns, who devoutly believe what Sister Julie believes and no more. This week a soldier whose home is at Gerbervillers came back on permission. It was his first per- mission during the war. For two years he had only known that hit home town had been stamped out of existence. e "And they say," his townspeople wound up their narrative of sack and flames, "that the Germans burn- ed the baker alive." "I know all about the baker," was the soldier's surprising answer. "They burned him in his upper oven. He screamed as they thrust him in." Last week on the Somme the French army took many thousand prisoners. This .Gerbervillers man was one of those who was set to guard them, with others of the Ger- bervillers company.

"Above the lines, looking towards the German trenches, was a great cluster of kite -balloons," wrote a famous war correspondent, in describ- ing the beginning of the great Brit- ish "push.' - "They were poised very high, held steady by the air -pockets on the ropes of the baskets where the artillery ob- servers sit. I counted seventeen of them, the largest group that has ever been seen along our front. "Sausages" they call these kite -bal- loons in the Army, the name coming from the odd, sausage -like appear- ance the craft have in the air. They have one great advantage over the ordinary, old-fashioned bal- loon; not only can they be held cap- tive in a stronger wind than an or- dinary balloon, but they are also much steadier in the air, thus rendering the position of those "up" for purposes of observation, etc., more secure, com- fortable, and effective. Instead of being round in shape, they are elongated, and the part known as the "kite" is a kind of half - open attachment at one end. This acts to the main balloon much as a tail does to a kite, catching the wind and steadying the balloon. A kite - balloon appears to be reared up on one end, as if the ballonet were weighted and dragging the rest of the vessel almost perpendicular. These observation balloons are held captive by means of a strong wire cable. The cable is held and paid out by an engine stationed on ,the ground. In a light wind a balloon may even be "anchored" to a motor vehicle. The observers in the basket of the THE BRITISH MIDSHIPMAN STUDY or THE "MIDDY" IN PEACE AND WAR. GerMans,Confessed. One of the Germans examined his regimental insignia with interest. The German looked at it and turned away, and Came back and looked at it and turned, and finally Came back again. "Your regiment," said he, "was raised around Gerbervillers?" The French soldier asked sonic questions. The German said that he and others of the prisoners had been present at the buraing of Gerber - "If my officer would let me, I would slip my bayonet through your middle," said the French soldier, grit - thug his teeth. "You would be right," said the Ger2 Man soldier. "We did awful things there. I did none of them. I kept my hands clean. But the others did them. It was an order." They talked off and on for three days. The German seemed to have something on his mind. He would lead up to the subject and then shy away from it. At last he bolted it. He could resist no more. The sen- tence came from him as though he could not close his teeth on it. "We burned the baker in his upper Oven," said he.. "He shrieked as we thrust him in." The French eoldiee got all the names and all the details from the German. Then be came home to Ger- bervillers on permission, and after everything else had been talked over, this story of the baker Came to the front, The French soldier went to Sister 'Julie with his new evidence, ,and that capable woman—she is He Is Highly -Trained, Efficient, and Self -Reliant Young Man, Cocky, cheeky, perky, essentially a boy of boys, the British midshipman has proved time and again during the stress and Arab; of North Sea Watch - hog, tend the myriad small sea affairs that have happened during the war, that he is. the equal of the best and oldest of veterans when the real thing, with all its grisly horror and deliber- ate, machine -made slaughter, comes to the great eilent service, writes Admiral G.

GUARD BABY'S HEALTH IN THE SUMMER The summer months are the most dangerous to children. The complaints of that season, which are cholera in- fantum, colic, diarrhoea and dysentry, come on so quickly that often a little one is beyond aid before the mother realizes he is ill. The mother must be on her, guard to prevent these troubles, or if they do come on sud- denly to cure them. No other medi- cine is of such aid to mothers during hot weather as is Baby's Own Tab- lets.

Effort to Restore Traffic on Interior Water Route. China is reported to be -considering the restoration of the old meal sys- tem, of which there were at one time 60,000 miles within the empire. Cen- turies before the Christian era the great rivers of China were diverted from their natural courses, the wa- ters of one turned into another's bed and the waterways carried along in the diaection of desired traffic. The ancient Grand Canal extends from Hangchou to Tientsin, travers- ing the provinces of Chekiang, Kiang- I su, Shangtung and Chili, the total length of the canal being about 850 miles, says the Christian Herald. China is in desperate need of trans- portation, and it has been estimated by engineers that the canal system can be restored at a less cost than that which would be involved in the building of the necessary railways. With the canals again in operation the railway building can go on at greater leisure. DUKE AS AN INDIAN CHIEF.
