SIGNS IN PARIS STREETS REGAL
TERRIBLE DAYS.
L
Germans Made Air. Attacks on Eiffel
Tower Where French Government
Communicates With Vttorld.
There remain in -Paris rnany grim
reminders of•the terrible days of the
opening of the war, as well as evi-
dence' o1 _its progress, shys a dories-'
pendent.
In the Hotel de Crillon partieularlly
there- are in the corridors several
framed documents and proclamations
which form' an interesting history.
There is one proclamation issued by
General Gallieni early .ie September,
1914, announcing to Paris that he had
taken over the military command of
the capital and that he intended to
tarty out lits duty to the last detail.
Alongside this' is a great red sheet,
now framed and covered with glass,
an original of the anuouncoment of
General von Hissing to the people of
Brussels that Edith Cavell and a dozen
other persons had been found guilty
of various "crimes" against the Ger-
man army of occupation and were to
be put to death. Outside the Crfllon,
around the corner in the Rue Royale.
there remains under glass cue of the
original general mobilization orders
posted in August, 1914, to call all
French reservists to the colors.
Eiffel Tower Well Guarded.
In these days of alternating open
and closed diplomacy one of the most
interesting places is the Eiffel Tower,
where communication is maintained
by the French government with the
rest of the world. The value of the
radio, and particularly of such a great
plant as that in the Eiffel Tower, is
readily appreciated when it is recalled
that there is virtually no other means
of communication with: "points east."
However, the Eiffel Tower is a send,
ing station only, all messages being
received by a chain of subsidiary sta-
tions. Thus -messages canbe sent to
Arlington from the Eiffel Tower, but
messages. from Arlington to -France
are received: at Lycra, which is the re-
ceiving station for radios from Ameri-
ca.
Other foreign sending plants liavo
other receiving stations in France, all
connected with the Eiffel Tower. The
Tower now earns its salt by transmit-
ting We hundreds of messages that
go to the new nations and the troubled
factions of the East.
Paris is enabled to send word to the
Czechoslovaks, the Poles, u.: Sorbs
and even with enemy and recalcitrant
groups if necessary. The, a is a pneu-
matto tube system connecting the
study of Mr. Clemeneeau with the
transmission room at the Tower, and
the "Tiger" has only to scratch out a
note and push a buttan to tell Mr.
Paderewski the latest, During the
war the Tower was elaborately pro-
tected. That is, the chambers in
which the transmission apparatus' is
maintained were protected. The Ger-
mans made several attacks against
this great pillar, but neither their
Gothas nor their Berthas scratched it.
TRAITS OF OUR INDIANS.
Hudson Bay Company Finds That They
Can be Trusted Absolutely.
One of the most distinctive features
of the Hudson Bay Company is its
cultivation of the Spartan virtue of
truth upon the part of its employees
in dealing with the Indians. No mis-
representation is permitted for the
purpose of effecting sales in that ser-
vice or for any other purpose and any
infraction of the rule is promptly met
with summary'dismissal.
This money making corporation
thoroughly believes; and -its long ex-
perience fully demonstrates, that the
Indian of the North woods is not only
industrious but honest.
TJpon this theory on Indian comes
into a trading post early in August or
September without a cent, He has no
furs to -sell, but he has many needs to
supply. He requires flour, tea, sugar,
bacon, a new gun, powder, shot and
billets, traps and many other things
to lasthim for eight months, He has
no money, but he has honesty and
skill, so he is furnished with all he
desires. The company gives him
credit on its books, for supplies aggre-
gating from 1200 to $500, and the In-
dian, with loaded canoe, departs into
the forests to his hunting grounds
three hundred or four hundred miles
distant.
The trader loses no sleep, for be
]snows that when Pune has thawed out
the ice of the lakes and streams the
canoes will return bearing their valu-
able furs and he will then balance ac-
counts with his former debtors. who
have returned to discharge their debts
and to receive credit for the addition-
al furs they have brought to the
trader.
One summera post trader was ask-
ed about the frequency of bad ac-
counts. Ile replied that he had never
had a bad account, that it sometimes
happened that the Indian was unable
to make full payment, but in such
cases the payment was simply post-
poned until he had a more successful
hunt.
The only event which prevents the
Indian from paying is his death.
The first month is the. critical
period in the life of a shi"ty

Oxford Revisited.
Back to these weather-beaten walls,
And the scent of my Oxford rose,
Where many a ghostly footstep falls
And a kindly soft wind blows!
Blasts of an icy gale were mine
In the blood-stained years outside,
Far from the gates of my Mother
Shrine,
With the shadows of Death and
Pride.
And God be praised that the vessel
built
By the banks of our hallowed stream
Has weathered the jagged rocks and
silt,
And the gusts of an ugly dream.
On your lawn. to -day are the loving
arms
Of the old unchanging trees
That take no count of the hurts and
harms
And the woriidly fickle breeze,
When the sun goes down, I am Home
—thank God!
With each dear unchanging thing—
The tower, and the trees, and the old
gray quad,
Where my heart and the ivy cling.
Away from the long grim trench I trod,
And the song that the bullets sing.
Recompense,
I saw two sowers in Life's field at
morn,
To whom came one in angel guise
and said,
"Is it for labor that a man is born?
Lo I dm Ease. Come ye and eat
my bread!"
Then gladly one forsook his task un-
done
And with the Templer went his
slothful way,
The other toiled until the setting sun
With stealing shadows blurred the.
dusty day.
Ere harvest time, upon earth's"peace-
ful breast
Each laid him down among the un -
reaping dead.
"Labor hath other recompense than
rest,
Else were the toiler like the fool," 'I
said
"God meteth' him not less, but rather
more
Because he sewed and others reaped
his store."

not -an infrequent sight t6 see thein
racing at a furious pace over hilland

NERVE CENTRE O1? CANADA'S

—Never Failed in Duty.
The Divisional S'ignallers of the
First Canadian Division —the nerve
centre of the fighting arm—aro near-
ing home.
Although non-combatants, the Di-
visional Signallers have performed
heroic service and are an important
cog in the 'fighting machine of the
Canadian Corps. Day and night they
worked? keeping the lines of commun-
ication's open, laying out new ,lines
and repairing shattered lines. They
went about their work unsung and
unheralded, rarely getting any glory,
but still discharging their duty that
was vital to the directing operations
of the army..in the field;
'Without the Divisional Signallers
the fighting units could not carry on.
If.' was these lads who worked side
by side with the infantry and artill-
lery. Hundreds have met their death
out in the open working away oh the
Mies, while hundred's have been
wounded in carrying on the important
task of keeping all the communica—
tions open between the units of the
division.
In the fighting at Ypres, down to
the Somme, back to Vimy, on to Pas-
chendaelc, and through the fierce
fighting of Cambrai, Arras and other
famous battles, the Signallers never
failed in their duty and Canada
should welcome these silent heroes
with open arms. To them too much
credit cannot be' given for the suc-
cess of the Canadian Corps in the
great war.
"Communications."
"Communications — cothinunica.
tions!" or "Give us a line!" was the
often -repeated cry of the infantry or
artillery when the Canadians raced
into action, made an adve ce, or m.11-
led off a trench raid, or when the
Boche hit back and laid: down a bar-
rage that ripped the signal communi-
cation wires to tatters.
To the divisional signallers fell tete
difficult task of always keeping the
likes of communication open from di-
visional headquarters -to brigades,
and thence on to battalion or artil-
lery lines. The different branches of
the fighting machine had to keep in
touch with each gth2i', the infantry'
calling up the artillery, the artillery
talking to the front 'lilies, dlvielonal
staffs directing battles and brigade
stairs carrying out orders. It was all
part of the machine, and it was the
signallers' that kept each unit in
touch, whether in the front line in
trench warfare or out in the open.
The First Divisional Signal Com-
pany is made up of four sections, each
one attached to one of the three
brigades, and the other with head-
quarters . They carry wireless equip-
ment, signal lamps, flags and wire.
They also ,had "listening ,in" ap-
paratus, This is an instrument that
is put out in No Man's Land and
stuck in the ground to hear what the
Huns are talking about, that is, if
they talk too loud. These "listening
in" phones are put out at night by
signallers and run through barbed I v
wire and placed as near the Huns'
line as possible. It is an excellent
device for detecting conversations,
and often works as a safety valve
for the Canadians in catching their
own men who talk too freely or too
loud in the front lines. For instance,
once a man was asking a certain bat-
tery to send up ammunition and he I
spoke so Rotel that lie was heard on
the "listening in" phone and could no
doubt be heard on the Hun's line if
he had one out, thus the location
would be given away to the enemy.
"Wig -Wagging" Seldom Used.
their Work of keeping the lines from
the various fronts open. For example,
just before the battle of Courcelette
on. the Saitime in September, 1916,
one signalling corps had 20 lines in
order, buried and running up to the
different fronts. Everything was 0.
K. 30 minutes before the zero hour.
The next minute some Hun shells lit
right on top of the massed wires and
tore every line. ' The "show" was to
start in 30 minutes!
C,ommunicdtions had been cut. But
the signallers Bustled out and in the
midst of a devastating shell fire ran
otic new lines, repaired all communi-
cations, and Completed the task just
eight minutes before the Canadians
went into action. Two of the men
were gassed.
At Viddy in one spot the lines were
cut 27 times during the fighting, and
the signallers worked heroically to
keep thole' donirades in touch with
all units,
Signallers are composed of line-
men, telegraphers, operators, cable -
men, drivers anis despatch riders.
MONEY WAS NOT NEEDED
In These Times of Soaring Prices We
Envy the "Barter" Days.
We are very apt to accept gold,
silver and bronze coins as being
money, without thinking of some
other objects fulfilling the same pur-
pose. It might be interesting to
'readers to state a few cif the differ-
ent things that have been used as
money, or a method of exchange, in
the past, and also, in some cases. in
the present.
In the earliest days, cattle were
cry commonly used for this purpose.
Fancy paying for things you bought
with cows! It had its disadvantages,
naturally, for if you wished to pay
for something of less value than your
cow, how were you to settle things?
Necessarily, you were not trading
with a dead animal, and could not
cut it up to suit your requirements.
Therefore, you would have to buy in
arge gnantitiee.
But in those clays of little trans-
port, your money being cattle was
very useful, as you hadn't got to
carry it. You could drive your money,
when you wished, without much
trouble.
At one time in Switzerland eggs
were used as money, and dried cod
was used for the same purpose in
Newfoundland. Nails have been
quite a usual forlir of money in yeti -
out' places, especially in Scotland;
rice has been used in India,, tobacco
in Virginia, dates -in Northern Africa,
and skins in various places.
Even at the prlestrnt time ?scope of
metal are used by the natives of
West Africa as currency, but in
those portions owned by the British,
coins are gradually being introduced,
In West Africa it is a tiring job to
carry much of the native money, for
the hoops of metal are very much
Pike crochet hoops, though not so
heavy. The coins being introduced
there now have a hole through the
?centre, so that the natives can string
their money together and carry it
round their necks.
I have seen a wiitile string of these
coins, and they are quite weighty,
but fall short of the burden formed
by the hoops of metal when carried
in numbers.
When metal began to be accepted
as the general method of exchange,
ingots were used, sometimes shaped,
but often a rough piece. of whatever
metal it was. In. Egypt they adopted
the habit of staonpie1g on the ingots
a likeness to animals, which had been
one of the former methods of ex-
change.
Coins have been made of various
metals. Some 'were once used in
England made of tin; and, of course,
nickel is used no in various Con-
tinental countries,
The signallers did little work with'
the flags, "Wig -Wags" as they are
called in the artily. This visual sig-
nalling was rarely used on the western
front and only frequently when em-
ergencies arose through heavy light-
ing or When the troop's got out into
the open in the closing months of, the
war. Signallers with flags are a
good target for the Hun and would,
if sighted, give away important hid-
ing posts for observation work. At
the Vimy Ridge show visual stations
were erected and manned up to the
front line, but were not used as the
wird communications were kept go-
ing.
The story is told where a signaller
in .a tower near Viniy was "getting
in touch" with his flags just -before
the zero hours when the Huns spot-
ted the flags and wiped the party out.
The chief signalling done was over
telephones, telegraph and wireless..
The signallers had to run their lines
out up to the front line many times
under heavy shell fire. The biggest
trouble was that the communications
were constantly chattered by enemy
fire, and the signallers and linemen
had to go out and fix up the lines or
string out new wires, and many met
their death from shell and snipers'
bullet's.
Each battalion has fifty-six sig.
millers under a signal officer and are
responsible for keeping up communi-
cations between alt.parte of the bat-
talion aid with flank battalions and
brigade headquarters. In trench
warfare the divisional signallers
maintain an eiailorate system of
Man and Besot..

'Which they neglect them to possess;
They do not count the Pleiades,

They do not know the leaf and stem
And, bud and flower beneath their feet.
They sniff at Stars -of -Bethlehem,
And buttercups are food to them,
No more than bitter food, or sweet.

I yet possess the human heart.

Care of Ferns.
Ferns should be set into a tub once
a week, showered and left to get the
roots thoroughly wet; this is better
than just pouring water on top evlery
day, although if the foliage is dry they
need that, too. Where roots protrude
from the bottom of the pot, repotting
is necessary; use soma fresh soil and
be careful in the handling. House
plants repay the little care required.

The One Favor Asked.
On the occupation of Cologne Gen-
eral Sir H. C. 0. Pinner was assigned
a splendid villa belonging to a weal-
thy German.. After the General's
arrival the ovvr�iier of the villa got
hold of the A.D.C. and to him, with
many bows and flowery words, ex-
pressed his deep sense of the honor
of having so great a soldier under his
roof. Had the General any com-
mands for him? He had but to ex-
press a wish for it to be fulfilled.
"I will see," said the A.D.C., who
departed and presently returned.
"Has the General any orders for
me?" ' cried the eager Teuton.
"Yes," seed the A.D.C., "at least
the General desires something."
"Aeh, vet is it, vot is it?"
"The General's one and only de-
sire," coolly answered the A.D.C., "is
that during his occupation of your
villa you will be neither seen nor
heard!"

The Stool Was All Right.
Down on a southern plantation the
dairy hands were accustomed to do
the milking squatting down in primi-
tive fashion. until the owner introduc-
ed milking stools with other improve-
ments. But the first experiment was j
hardly a success. The Barky who Brit'
sallied forth with the stool returned,
bruised and battered, and with an
empty pail. "I done my best, salt," he
explained, "Dat stool looked all rigbt
to me, but de blamed cow she won't i
sit on it."

Ouch 1 ? 1 ? ! 1 This kind of, rough
talk will be heard less hers in town if
people troubled with corns will follow
the simple advice of this Cincinnati
authority, who claims that a few drops
of a drug called freezone when applied
to a tender, aching corn stops soreness' I
at once, and Boon the cern' dries up
and lifts right out without ;lain.
He says freezone 18 an ether com-
pound which dries immediately and
never inflames or even irritates the
surrounding tissue or skin. A quarter
of an ounce of treasons will cost very
little at any drug store, but is eulll-
ciont to remove every hard or soft
corn or callus from one's feet. Millions
of American women will'iweleome this
announcement since the inauguration
of the high heels.
