Best of Disinfectants
Sunlight is one of the bes disin-

from the sun, but certain rays of
light which kill the bacteria w they

KING ALBERT IS AIRMAN.
Takes Trip as Observer Over Belgian
Front. •
From Flanders the Belgian news-
paper "La Metropole," now publishtd
in London, learns that on March 18
King Albert, who was visiting a new
military flying ground of the Belgian
army, expressed a desire to act as
observing officer in an aerial recon-
naissance.
His Majesty accordingly took his .
seat in a two-seater, piloted by the
well-known Beigian airman, Captain
Jacquet, who has already accounted
for several German machines.
Preceded by •a squadron of fighting
planes, the King flew over the whole
of the Belgian Yser front at heights
varying between 3,000 and 6,000 feet,
making numerous observations and
successfully taking photographs.
The German anti-aircraft guns put
up a well -sustained fire, but no
enemy airman ventured in the way of
the royal plane, which effected a
smooth landing at the appointed time
and place.
The King afterward discussed his
observations with the general staff.

Thrilling Adventure of Aviators
When the Aeroplane
Caught Fire.
The extensive use of the aeroplane
hi the European -war makes possible
many thrilling adventures that could
never have occurred in any previous
war. In the Cornhill Magazine, B. E.
P. tells of perhaps the most frightful
experience through which an aviator
can pass. After a successful engage-
ment with a German machine—Two-
tails,— as he called it—the writer's
machine proceeded to carry out its re-
connaissance orders under fire from
the hostile guns.

bearers of the Rifle Brigade and the
Leinstera carried us back to their

heavy shrapnel fire. Thanks to the

we were not burned so much as might
have been expected.
Be . Honest.
For every man who cannot spend
his blood there is a chance to spend
his money in defence of liberty. Con-
temptible as is the military slacker,
more contemptible is the flnaneial
slacker who hesitates even to lend his
money for a price to the nation. Those
who go to the front have a right to
expect that those who remain at home .
will furnish the necessary cash to as-
sure vigorous prosecution of the war.
Few men are so poor that they can-
not buy at least a $50 bond, and none
is so poor as he who refuses too so.
