Escaped Front Lightning Bolt
Many people visited th-e home of

Suffering from intense shock and for
several days confined to her bed Mrs,
Fischer -kia.ows what it means to
escape death by the proverbial eye-
lash. Mrs. Fischer was sitting, on the
side of her bed writing a letter when
the bolt of lightning struck the chim-
ney and .boomed into her room. She
scarcely recalls what happened. It all
occurred in a split fraction of et sec-
ond, The bolt of lightning made a
terrific explosion when it struck the
chimney and screamed jowo the flue.
After coming down the chimney and
entering the bedroom where Mrs.
Fiseher was sitting, the lightning div-
erted in four different directions. One
bolt knocked down the stove pipes in
the hedroam and went through the
ceiling into the kitchen where it tore
up a piece of 'linoleum sm the floor, A
second went through the door into
an adjoining; bedroom and out

telephone wire in the kitchen and
went ontside on the ground wire.
The fourth holt is the one that Atruck

clothing on which she had been eh -

of each of the ten eyeholes in her left
shoe was actually burned inti her
instep. The ten red holes on her
swollen foot could be plainly seen.
Bricks from the chimney were scat-
tered all over he yard, neatly of them
broken to fragments.

•
When one heard the name Kew to-
day one usually' thinks of a famous
gavdtin and a great botanical 'centre,
end for 1 great many years Kew has
been renowned as such.. However, a
few eenturies ago Kew was merely a
small village on the Thames several
miles from Landon. It was an attrac-
tive little village set in pleasant •coun-
try .surroundings. 'Royalty and others,
recognizing its ,beauties, built resid-
ences there and established gardens.
Mary, Dowager Queen of France and
sister of Henry 'VIII, lived at Kew,
as did also at about the same time,
one, l'orner, known latet as
the father of English botany: This is
the 'firet connection Kew had with the
science of which it is noW the head-

of economic value which have been

Doctors and nurses everywlhere

phia found a house in which a lone
woman had been .dead and unburied
foe a week; another found a husband
dead in the •same room where his wife
was 'lying with .newbeern twin babies.
Hospital coaditions were a nightmare:
wards designed for 30 .people •would be
jammed with 70, half of deem dying;
when 'the day nurses came on duty
they would firtd many new faces in
beds where others had died ,during the
,night. Doctors and nurses were fall-

three days, Cemeteries appealed :for
more gravediggers. In several cities
there was a shortage of coffins,
The epidemic, while furious, was
brief -a few cases one 'week, a few
more the next, then a terrific increase
with a vast number of deaths, then a
rapid subsidence toward normal. And
with that subsidence there came a ra-
pid recovery of morale. No wonder -
for, by the 'beginning of 'November,
it was clear even to the most skepti-
cal not only that the influenza was ,011
the way out, hut also that the war
was ending, ending in a victory be-
wilderingly sudden and complete.
Came the Armistice celebrations.
Who cared now abut influenza,
about masks, or 'keeping away from
crowds? Only one thing mattered: the
war was over,
NEARLY F.ORGOTTEIN
How many readers under the age
of 215 years have ever heard -Of the
great in'fluenza epidemic of 11216?
Eveie many of those •who lived
through, it will recall it only vaguely,
For While it swept through the coun-
try, during the last two months of the
World War, more exciting news was
filling the newspapers; Ludendorff's
final thrusts into French territory had
been turned hack, and Foch was Par-
rying through the Allied, counterat-
tack, Yet the epidemic took half a
million American ,lives -1,0 times as
many as yee lost in battle.
Nor was this an American epidem-
ic only. In 'India it killed some five
million people. It spread alneost sim-
ultaneously to the remotest regions -
Africa, Labrador, the 'Philippines, the
South Seas. In Alaska Whole villages
Eskimos lost their enbire adult popu-
lation; in Western Samoa 7,000 out .of
30,000 perished; in Fiji some es ,or 90
percent of the population of Suva fell
111. The total loss of life from the epi-
demic was certainly much larger, in
a few .months, than the loss in all the
years of 'fightingein the Viorld War.
According to tbe British Ministry
of Health, the epidemic ranks "not
lower than third, ,perhape second, up-
on the roll of great pestilences" of all
recorded histary, its rivals being the
plague of Justinian's reign and the
1146-cenbury Black Death. Yet you
will find only the most fleeting men -
doe of it -if any at all -in the history
books.
Since war hysteria ran high at the
time, many Americans imagined that
influenza germs -had been brought to
American coastal cities by German
agents. Unfortunately for this theory,
one of the places evbere the epidemic
was first reported in the whole world
was Camp Funston, in ,Kansas, on
March 5, 1916. It spread quickly
through the camp, in comparatively
mild form. But in the same month the
same disease -or what looked like it
--arepeared in such widely separated
places as China. the 'Japanese Navy,
and the Freneh village of Chaumont.
By April, the disease had reached
British and German troops at the
front and American troops at Brest.
In May it was spreading through
Spain with increased virulence; hence
the name "Spanish iatluenza." By
June it was running wildly thraugh
Europe, including Germany and' the
Scandinavian countries, and had
reached India.
Then it moved westward again -
back acroes the Atlantic. And all at
one it was no longer a mild disease,
either in the United States or other
countries. Now it was terrifying, One
case in every six or seven turned into
pnetnnonia so severe that a patient
hai only about two chances in three
of pulling through. It leaped from one
end of the country to the other, doing
its greatest damage among young
men and women. By the first of .0cto-
ber the epieleinic had reached its peak
in Boston (and simultaneouely, 'believe
it or not, M Bombay, India); by the
middle of October it had reached its
peak in Philadelphia and Baltimore
(and also in Liverpool and Vienna);
and so on, through the entire United
States. and the entire world.
Nobody. -knew just how the disease
was column nice led, but the canting
together of people seemed to have
something to .do with it, .and 'therefore
football games and boxing matches
were cancelled, the 'Kentucky races
were called off, and many places of
amusement closed. In Boston and
Washington the public school SeSSI.0118
were suspended. In New York the
public library discontinued abe circu-
lation of 'books, and the New York
Telephone Company, with. 1000' opera-
tors ills, asked subscribers to use the
telephone only for urgent Calls.. In
Seattle and many other cities, every
place of public assembly was closed.

AN OWL THAT HUNTS
BY DAYLIGHT
The snowy owl lives on tile Arctic
tuadral throughout the 'summer
months when there is no dankness,
so be must ,perforce hunt 'by day-
light. Nature has adapted his sharp
eyes .to this need, an unusual oeie
itt
the world of owls. :Thus he has t•to
difficulty in spotting the Artie hares,
mite and lemmings which -supply his
staple articles of diet.
A few of ;these birds usually mig-
rate as far south a.s the northern
United States each ,winter and their
diurnal habits prove .disconcerting
10
some .furred and 'featheeed residents,
On one occasion a !flock of crows
were observed "mobbing" a snowy
,believing him too be partially
by the sun, but s.everal suff-
ered from a sudden -rush .of silent
wings an.d unerring claws.
IDaubtless because most of his nor-
mal habitat is treeless, the white owl
of the Arctic, even when woods are at
hand, !prefers to ,perch on the ground,
But he .usually chooses some low 'hill-
ock 'where he can command a view of
open spdces, In •the polar prairies the
nests are found on the ground on
some Such eminence, eight or ten
white eggs, as large as a 'pullet's,
being 'laid in a slight depression •with
little or no lining.
Warm white down covers the
youngsters literally ifrom head to
foot. Likewise in the adults, ciosely
set feathers grow to the very toes,
even the bill bleiag ,almost concealed.
The male may be pure white or al-
most so, while the ,female, consider-
ably larger than her spouse, is norm-
ally barred with sl.aty brown on a
white background.
At irregular intervals of eight or
ten years a mysterious disease car-
ries 'off most of the Arctic hares.
Men as -well as four -,legged beasts of
prey go hungry in these dreaded sea-
sons, but the snowy owl spreads bis
powerful pinions and .flies southward.
During these special migmtions com-
panies of she or eight are often found
in 'New England and even farther
south. Individuals of this Eskimo
race ,of owls have even been reported 41"
in tropical Bermuda arid on ships a
thousand miles from land.
The following menus may suggest
some new ideas for picnic baskets:
Camppfire Menu 1
Toasted Bacon and Tomato Sand-
wiches
Fruit Salad, Berries or Melon (us-
ing the luscious Canadian 'fruits as
they come in season)
Buttered Scones
Lemon Cheese Tarts
Cocoa for All or Coffee or Tea for
Adults -Cocoa for Children
Campfire Menu 2
Cheese Filled Rolls -Toasted
(Split rolls and spread one side gen-
erously with grated cheese mixed with
butter. Put together and toast over
coals of campfire.)
Fresh Vegetables such as Radishes,
Lettuce, Green Onions. .(Fresh from
garden, market or store.)
Fruit Shortcake,
(Sloth rich tea 'biscuits. .Cover bot -
tont halves with sweetened, crushed
berries, or sliced. fruit. Berries may be
prepared at home and carried in cov-
ered sealer.)
from regular meals, and takes little
time and effort in home preparation.
No matter what typs of picnic, the
hamper should include a variety af
foods that will combine to provide a
complete, balanced meal., and in fig-
uring the amounts required, allowance
should be made for the hearty appe-
tites always in evidence on such occa-
sions
Picnics should be happy events far
everyone, and in no way should the
enjoyment be marred by elaborate
preparations. The catnpfirep picnic is
voted as among the mast popular,
praloaloly because it is a real change
