German Prisoners of War Do a Large Amount of Salvage Work and Allied Troops Have a Good Share. Since time armistice, salvaging of metal on a large scale has been going on in all of the war -areas of the West Trout. Thousands of •tons •of scrap steel have been salvaged from all the battle -fields. A good share of this sal- vage work has been done by the troops of the Allied armies, but also a large amount of it has *been done by the German prisoners of war. At' practically all the railroad sta- tions in the neighborhood of Etain and. Bar -le -Due train -loads can be teen of the crooked, rusted. barbed-wire en- tanglement rods, stacked up like cord- wood, waiting for shiprnent. . There' are small of miscellaneous scrap -iron, and piles of havy corru- gated steel sheets are a characteristic sight in salvage dulling and railroad yards throughout the battle regions. In the centre and toward the eastern end of the line this work has been car- ried nearer to completion than at the northwestern end. In the northwest, along the British front, the salvage work has proceeded a bit more slowly, perhaps, but certainly not less thoroughly. Prisoners at Work. In the past winter and spring Ger- man prisoners of war were going over the shell -shot battle -fields which had been a part of the British front, tear- ing down the corrugated iron shelters, picking up 'duds' or unexploded shells, clearing the thickets of barbed wire and chevaux-tie-frise, storing and pil- ing np all the salvaged metal in the e,lmps and loading it on the freight ,Sts and Canal or river barges. In the salvage dumps you can see wrecks of camions, tanks of all descriptions, great piles of metal helmets, rides; bayonets, knives, shells and shell - cases, machine guns, and, in fact, all the metal debris of warfare. But the one lasting impression made on most observers is that of acres of corrugated steel sheets and barbed wire and the twisted rods around around, the bees stayed in the hide, which the barbed-wire entanglements t but every time the wasp approached the small entrance hole a bee came out and walked round in a circle, do- ing sentry -work till the wasp departed. All hour later a wasp—presumably the scout—was found dead on its back on the top of the hive, and'the bees were busy again. A French inventor has modeled a monoplane from a winged maple seed.

Tobago, Near the Mouth of the Orino- co, Probable Scene of Great Adventure. The name of Robineon Crusoe - It forever linked in our memories with a desert island, No particular island conies to my mind as we think of this castaway hero, yet Cringe. himself, or rather Defoe, tells us exactly where his island is, and all but names it, writes Niksah, , For many years Juan Fernandez, a Chilean island off the eastern coast of South America, was known as Cru- goc's Island because another adven- turer had spent five years there in. solitude, and it was thought for some time that Defoe had recorded this her- mit's experience. But following Crusoe's directions. that he landed on an island in a lati- tude of eleven degrees, near the mouth of the Orinoco river, and in sight of the island of Trinadad, we come upon the island of Tobago, the only' one answering the description. An interesting discovery which gave prominence to Tobago as the real Crusoe's Island occurred some year's, ago, when the skeleton of a goat was unearthed in a cave on the island. This; coincided remarkably with Cru- ad in h founddying n that e e' statement so s goat In a hillside cave and later buried it there. "Crusoe's goat" became for a time an object oP great popular in- terest and figured as a prominent ex- hibit at the Chicago World's Fair, Tobago's failure to obtain greater recognition of its importance as tire.

The Anglo -Belgian' commission, ap- pointed to consider the question of the reconstruction of Ypres, has recom- mended that the central portion of the 'town be not rebuilt, but remain as a historic monument, says an Ypres despatch. That.; area Includes the ruins of the Cloth Hall, the cathedral, the Church of St. Martin, the Palate: de Justice and the adjoining cloisters. It is bounded on the north by the ,Marche de Bole, , on the east by the Rue de Dixinudq, and on the south by the Grand >Place, with, however, in- cluding any ruins on the_epposite side of the square, and on the west by the Rue des Hailes._ Nearly 1,000' civilians already have retnrr--ed , to'-cltvene amid the .ruin.

Walked on by an Elephant An African wanderer gives an in- teresting account of time reckless dar- ing of the natives in moments of ex- citement_. Late in the afternoon he' shot two elephants and early the.next morning sent some of the attendants out to bring in the tusks. So many hours passed without any tidings of the party that he began to be anxious. In the late afternoon he saw in the distance several men, some mounted, and others on foot, while one led' a camel with a curious -looking load. He bad a foreboding that something was wrong and in a few minutes he clearly perceived a man lying uporm°a makeshift litter, carried by the camel, while Dan and Suleiman accompanied the party horseback, They soon came up. Poor little Dick, a plucky and active ally, lay, as the man thought, dead upon the litter. They removed him gently, adminis- tered spirits, and on examination found lois thigh broken a little above the knee, Fortunatdlt was a simple fracture, Dan now explained the cease of the accident. While the camelmen and others were engaged in cutting up the dead elephants, three aggageers found the tracks of a wounded bull that had escaped into the thick jungle: He was tracked to a' position within a s of the hundred rd three Y two or h dead elephants. ' As there were no guns, two of the mei resolved to ride through the nar- row passages formed by the large game and take their chance with the elephant, sword in hand. Dick, as usual, took the lead on his little gray mare. With the greatest difficulty he advanced through the tangled thorns, which had been broken by the passage of heavy game, To the right and left of the passage it was impossible to move. • Dan bad wisely dismotilited, hut Suleiman followed Dick: On arriving within a few yards of the elephant, which was invisible in the thick thorns, Dan crept forward on foot, and discovered ]rim standing . with ears cocked, evidently waiting for the at- tack. As Dick followed on lois little gray mare, the elephant caught the white color and at once charged. Escapewas next to impossible, Dick turned his snare sharp round, and she bounded off; but she caught in the thorns andfejl, throwing her rider in the path of the elephant, only a few feet behind in full chase. The mare recovered herself in an instant and rushed away, The -elephant, occupied by her' white color, paid no attention to the man, but trod on him in the pursuit and broke his thigh.

The salesman put a one pound weight on one plate of a counter scale, while upon the other he laid a tidy strip of white paper upon which to lay the cheese. Then he removed the wire screen from over an English cheese that stood near on the counter and picked up a large,,,sharp knit°. Without a moment's hesitation or deliberation he set the edge of the knife down on the cheese and then crowded the knife down through it, cutting off a wedge shaped piece which now he laid on The natives of Paraguay, in drink- ing rinking tea, do not pour It from a teapot into a cup, butfill a goblet withthe beverage and then suck it up through a long ornamental tube. atinard'a Liziment Cures Colds, Lie.
