The cartridge consists of a steel cylinder containing numerous small pistons that move at right augles to the exis of the cylinder and expand when water is injected into them with a hand pump. After drilling a deep enough hole the workmen insert the cylinder and then set to work at the hand pump, The tiny pistons expand until their free extremities bear ageinst the mass of rock' with constantly increasing force and the rock is gradually frac- hired under tremendous pressure. The operation, it is said, is not only cheap- er than the ordinary blast but disin- tegrates a larger area of rock. • • • ...

A Chateau of Dark Memories St. Germain-en-Laye, the scene of the peace negotiations with Austria, is described by a correspondent in the Manchester Guardian.

A distinc- tive feature of the assemblage of stone is the small Gothic chapel, which was completed in 1238 by Pierre de Montereau. The visitor to the present chapel is depressed by the dour expression of the earchitecture, which makes a striking contrast to the cheerful design of the other cha- teaus of the period. St. Germain as it stands to -day is a product of the passion of Francis I. for building. "This versatile monarch celebrated here his nuptials with Claude, daugh- ter of Louis XII, The arcticests, who • received instructions in ail probabil- ity direct from Ihe kine, employed brick for tbe building, which stands to -day shorn of the speolaus gardens which Du Cerceau shows in the orig- inal drawing, now in the British Museum.

The exiled James II, found an asylum here after the revolution of 1688, ‚and fro mthis year until his death in 1701 numerous plots and intrigues were hatched favoring a second restora- tion. "Finally we come to Napoleon I., who converted the place • into a school for cavalry officers, and after, his deposition it was used for a time as a militray prison. During the reign of the third Na.poIeon agita- tion was rife concerning the restora- tion of the old chateaes, with tbe consequence that Pierrefonds was r - paired by Viollet le Due, and St. Ger- main underwent complete restoration on the lines of the original plans between the years 1862-1908. Apart from the general cheracter of heavi- ness, the architecture of the chateeu has considerable merit, There ate features recalling the fantasies of Chambord, combined with others of pure Italian origin. There is a courtyard of irregular . shape, in some respects a legacy from the earlier fortress. The steep pavilion reef of the period is conspicuous by its absence, balUStritdes, terraces •=•••[..•••••••••••••••• s SINCE 011,70 30WRAC011611 • and eupolae of graceful shape, 'com- bined with massive channey-stacks, usurping the place of traditional features.

There is little danger that Bulgaria's; awful offences will De overlooked, and the probability is that in proportion to the number of her army, more Bul- garians will be handed over for trial than either Germans or Turks. The Bulgarian atrocities committed against the Serbians have been the subject of a special investigation by the Allied 'low- ers, an international commission having earofully examined all the evidence. The report it has made is one of the Most terrible ever drawn up, and is hardly surpassed by the report on the .Armenian inetssacres. Many of the details aro absolutely utifit for print, eor so many of the mimes svere those against women. The Eaulgars seem to have outstripped even the TtIrks in their treatment of wo- men in the enemy country they overran, arid that their conduct wassapproved by the highest Bulgarians authorities is proved bY the fact that the Bulgarian Bishop Melontlye, in addressing a num- ber of 'Macedonian won -ten in the village of I3ogumil, told them not to. be afraid of the Bulgerian soldier who visited them; "even If they tonne themselves with child, ti ere would be no harm in it," With this sort of ecolesiatical sanc- tion it Mtto be imagined show the Bul- garian troops conducted themselves.

No, 8, Ellensburg, Wash. There are women everywhere who long for children in their homes yet are • denied this happiness on account of some functional disorder which in most cases would readily yield to Lydia Ese Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. Such women should not give up hope' until they have given this wonderful medicine a trial, and for special advice 'write Lydia E. Mitcham Medicine Co., Lynn,Mass. The result of 40 years experience is at your service: !fetal Bulgarian documents admit deport- ing Serbs by wholesale, and note that parents were separated from their child- ren. In ono such convoy of 140 persons, fifty children lora than ten Yeses old died on route. The words of the Bulgar- ian Premier, Radoslavoff, constitute danining evidence, for he said that, "al- though the Serbian state might exist again, the Serbian nation will be dead." Of 8,400 interned prisoners, 4,000 died. In the official list of those murdered are the patsies of 148 priests. Instead of their calling being a protection to them it ap- peared to be an incitment to the Bul- gars' who believed that the priests were trying to keep alive the Serbian tradit- ion of nationality, and it was to obliter- ate this racial feeling that the Bulgars organized their massacres. When the Bulgars invaded Serbia they had every intention of remaining there forever, and therefore the soldiers at once set about the task of "asstrolltsting" the nativea, They were instructed that no mercy or consideration should be shown to any who called themselvee Serbs; only "when they had been taught that they were 13ulgars" could they be treated as human beings. Their propage andists closely Pollowed the army, terteh- ing the inhabitants of the occupied ter- ritory that they were, in truth Bulgars, not only through conquest but by racial descent. An official order lesued not a Year ago. Instructed the soldiers that the Serbian people were to be divided into five classes: (1) Those who are not sure and who are to be prosecuted. (2) Those who are not sure and Who are to be In- vestigated. (3) Those. who are neutral. (4) Those who are mire. (6) Those who are completely sure and who merit being rewarded, To carry on the propaganda Bulgarian schools were established, and attendance on the part of the Serbian children was compulsory. .There the childeen were taught that they were Bul- garians and that they ought to love the Bulgarians, against whom their fathers, bian. Birth registers and other official documents were altered' in order that only Bulgarized names might appear. Ira some cases the tombstones were removed 8,nd the graves leveled of the Serbians who had fallen in the war of 1912 and 1913. The newely born children had to bear Bulgrsrized names, and certain Serbian names that had no counterpart in the Bulger language were forbidden. Death for the men and dishonor for the wo- men was the principle upon which the Buigars carried on their campaign. es• • Venetian Gondolas.

Music of Our Indians. The music of our Indians is solely and simply vocal. It seems to be generally agreed by musical author- ities that the Indians' songs have in them nothing borrowed from instru- ments, nothing of artificial instiga- tion. An Indian melody never serves two sets of words. There is DO in- stance, it appears, where the people have followed our custom of singing the different stanzas of a ballad to the same air. A large proportion of Indian songs are entirely without words at all, sylleblez being employed to carry the tones. Perhaps the most striking peculiarity of Indian music is the lack of definite pitch, for there is no moll thing as standard pitch among ,the musicians of the red men. The Indian begins his song where the natural quality of his voice and his mood at the time render it easiest for him to sing ,it. The WW1 of the ,song depends upon the individual. • • • .

That is a question which yeti have asked yourself when you looited at beautiful plebe of furniture made of thies wood, says the. American Fores- try Association of Washington, D. C., wnich is campaigning for the planting of memorial trees. There have been it number of theorise, but the real rea- son is simple. 'The favorite theory has been that sapsuckers, by pecking holes through the bark of young enlace, make scars which produce the bird's-eye figure in the wood during succeeding years'. Bird pecked hickory is often cited as an analogous case, yet who ever BBAST bird's-eye figures i11 hickory, though the bark may have been perforated like a collander by the bills of ener- getic sapsuckers? The effect in the case of hickory is the oppoeite of bird's-eye in maple; the wood is dis- colored and unsightly. Some attribute it to the action of frost, but no such connection between cause and effect has been shown to exist. The explanation of the phenomenon is simple and a Demon wite a good magnifying glees can work it out for hiGelf. The bird's eye figure is pre- duced by casual or abnormal bade which have their origin under the bark of the trunk. The firet beds of that kind may develop, when the tree , is quite mall. They are rarely able to force their way through the bark and become branchce, hut they may • live many yettre juet under the bark, growing in length as the trunk in- creases in size but eeldom appearing on the outside of the bark. If °he such bud dies another will likely rise near it and continue the irritation which producee the fantastic growth known as bird's-eye. It is (said the Japanese product arti- ficial, bird's,eye growth in eertain trees by ineerting buds beneath the bark.
