At a depth of three hundred feet below ground tiny have come upon pieces of timber perfectly preserved, which. have every appearance of having v g been sant and shaped by the hand of man. Tfiis timber lies in the bed of an mic :hit river now being worked for gold, and the timber is oak. Now, oak has the peculiar property of lasting for centuries when buried in water or wet sand. Oak piles have been taken out from under old wooden bridges constructed by the Romans, and found as sound as when they were put *,ere, nearly .two thousand years ago. Oak, known as bog oak, is found buried in Trish peat bogs, and Is per- fectly black, intensely hard, and very valuable. At present there is an ab- splute famine in seasoned oak wood, but if we could suppress Bolshevism and open up Russia to trade, that famine would soon he ended. Just be- fore the war it was discovered that the bed of the River Moksha, for a Iength of over four hundred miles, is simply full of magnificent old oak trees bedded in sand. The river is shallow and broad, and the oak can easily be raised. As a matter of fact, a company was being formed to work these wonderful de- posits when war intervened. Srnailer deposits are found in Plug- land. There is a pool In the River Dart, known from time immemorial as Oak Pool, in the bottom of which are masses of 'One . old oak.

When washing gingham, as well as other colored fabrics, it is just as well to take for granted that it is apt to fade. To forestall this the colors may be set by first rinsing the garments, in a pail of cold water in which salt has been dissolved -one tablespoonful of salt to a gall. -.of water. After wringing out in the salt water, put the articles into a tub of clear, warm water to which a little soapsuds has been added. Wash rapidly so that the dye in the material will not have a chance to be affected by the alkali in the soapsuds. Be sure that the water is not too hot, fur that will dui; the colors considerably.

I have never had as mudh real good from any other article in my home. -as from the plain grocery box forty inches long by twenty-five wide, and eighteen inches or a little bore sin height, that was converted into a play box for Baby. A soft pad was made just large enough to fit the bottom in order that it could be out and , cleaned easily. Pieces dif an old quilt' were tacked over the upper edges, making them soft, and the inside was carefully lined with an old flannel' blanket, the edges being brought clown to cover the padding at the top. This did away with danger from slivers and there were no tacks at the top to scratch a little hand or chin. When baby was old enough to creep I could go down cellar or up- stairs without fear of his attempting to follow met for I dropped him in the play box for safe keeping. With baby in his box I could go to the chicken coop or garden without worrying lest he climb and fall, or burn himself on the stove. He never lulled off a table- cloth or tipped., over a pail of boiling water; he never pulled the cat's tail in my abeence and found how sharp are her claws, and when company. -came 1 could drop him in his play box and sit down to visit for a few min- utes without rot,stant angicty, The only objection to the play box is that some mothers make it a place of punishment. "Now don't touch that or TTIn t`neou in your box," should never be the maternal attitude. Have material is particularly dark. Hang in the shade to dry, and when taking down from the line do not dampen along with the other clothes, as colored fabrics should not lie clamp more than two hours before they are ironed. When 'ironing, guard against an overheated iron, just as against the hot water, and whenever there are several thicknesses of material, as in belts, put cheesecloth between the iron and gingham to prevent that shiny look that is often the result of care- less ironing.

Geneva,. to be the capital of the league of nations, is described by Ralph A. Graves as follows: "Seated serenely on both banks 01 theRiver phone where .it leaves thaa limpid waters df Lake Gbnova a placid stream, in `contrast to the mouldy turbulence of its ingress at the 'other end of the lake, Geneva is not the metropolis of the iulniature republic of Switzerland, for Zurich surpasses it in population by 50 per cent. and Berne is the capital: But it is doubtful whether before the world war any other city of its size was visited annually by as many ' tourists, for it was the main gateway into the world famous `playground 01 Europo.' "Although its recorded history goes back beyond the Cltristia.n era, to the time when Julius Caesar, in his coin- mentaries on his first•expedition into Gaul, mentions it as a stronghold of the Allobroges, its growth has bean phenomenal only in its leisureliness. To -day, after twenty centuries, it hen a population of only one hundred and thirty thousand. ' "The city enjoys the distinction of being the birthplace of the Interna- tional Red Cross, but also has some dark chapters in its past -the re• ligious excesses of the Reformation, when the perseeuted became the per- secutors. `Rousseau, of whom Napoleon; said, 'Without him France would not have had her revolution,' and the patriot Bonivard, whose trials Byron immor- talized as the Prisoner of Chilton, were •• Genevans. And John Calvin, 'who found Geneva a bear garden and loft it a docile school of piety,' was virtual dictator here for a quarter of a century. A True Patriot. "One of the most picturesque fig- ures in the history of, Geneva atilt. this period was Francis de Bonivara, who, when his victorious friends rushed into his dungeoti•a at Chinon crying `i3onivard, you are freed!' re- sponded with the query. 'And Geneva?' Upon being assured that his city Was also saved, he went home rejoicing. "There is no more beautiful picture of Christian charity than the scene its this city when, on Augnt 30, 1572,.�, merchants of Lyons brought news of ii the massacre of the Huguenots on Vit. Bartholomew's Day. Pastors were dispatched to the frontiers to meet the fugitives, who were reported to be on their way to this asylum, and the venerable Theodore de Boze, wito had succeeded Calvin as the spiritual head whole directed the of the council, population to fast and pray for the sufferers. "Geneva has set aside as a site for the permanent home of the Ieague of nations a beautiful wooded park or• tiering on the lake, some five ;tiles from the centre of the city. Behind the park tower the snowclad Jura Mountains. While there are many vil- lages in the vicinity of the park which are suitable for offices and for quar- ters of the delegates and their secre- tarial staffs, the capitol building it- self must be built." • A Hero.
