The Children were never quite sure when Miele Joe was joking, for he always looked quite serious, although there was sometimes a twinkle in hie eyes. ,."Now, Bobby," said Uncle Joe, "take a large-sized magazine, or any piece of Stiff paper about eight- een inches long. Roll it up into a small tube ; now, hold up your left hand, with the palm toward you, and place the tube against the side of your hand, Look through the tube with your right eye, and keep your left eye open. What do you see 7" "Oh, how funny!" shouted Bob- by, "It leaks as if •someone had cut a little round hole right out of the palm of nay hand !" Bobby laid down the tube, and had to look awice to make sure that his plump left palm was just as sound and whole as the other. "Bob,b-• how many fingers have you7" asked UTncle Joe, "Ten," said Bobby, looking as if he thought. the question rather a foolish one, "You never saw an eleventh fin- ger, did you?" "'Why, no," said Bobby. But he did not speak quite so positively this time, "1 -]:old your hands before you, with the fore -flingers almost, but not quite, touching," said his uncle, "Now look—not at your forefingers, but at the floor just beyond them." "0 Uncle Toe;" cried Bobby irk great excitement. "I see — right between my forefingers — another little stubby finger, so short and fat! What funny things you are showing me to -day 1" "You see, Bobby." said his uncle, laughing, "no matter how good your eyes may be, there are times when you cannot believe all that they tell you."—Youth's Com- panion. h BRI'PAIN IS MIRING AN ARMY. Ten Days Drill, Thin Weeding Out, and Shooting Practice. A British officer thus doseribes the process of building up "Kitche- ner army" : 'fere recruit begins with eight ]tours a day on the parade ground— one before breakfast, three in the i'vrencon, three ,after dinner, and one after t•ea•. For the first few weeks the work. consists entirely of elementary foot -drill, marching, the handling Of the rifle, and, above all, pliy si•cal training. Ten day's of this weed out the unfit and the slug- garde, and effect a vast improve- ment in bhe demeanor of those fit- ted to stand the strain. Chests ex- pand, heads come up, shoulders squaro cut, and the bodies 'move with a rhythm. The slop -walker, the ideal of ease and grace, begins to learn that he can't distinguish has right hand from his left when asked to do so without warning; the man who found the scythe an easy wea- pon to wield, finds that the simple - looking bayonet is Inc too much for him; the fluent speaker in the local debating society finds bhat ib is be- yond his art to explain how to form fours. But gradually we pull through and pass on to the hand- ling of the rifle as a weapon of war. The air -gun enthusiast starts here full of confidence, until he finds himself placed in the "awkward squad" for farther aiming in•sbruc- tion. The man who would be in- esulted if he were told that he could not tell the time finds that "six o'clock on the bull" •takes a lot of finding. The first assay on the miniature range is also usually something of a disappointment. Bat careful in- dividual instruction works wonderst and 'the men are gradually got ready for field teaming. MI this time the wont of developing mus- cles and expanding Chests has gone steadily on sand the marches have become longer. The.babtaldon now sings the magic strains of "Was Long Way to Tip- perary," and "Hullo I Who's Your Lady Friend1" as it swings along dusty roads, In feat, the authors and composers• of • these ballads? aided by the forgobteetagenius twbo invented elate mouth -organ, have lone 17iuch to hemp in the training of our new •soldigrs, So .now _off we go in high ,spirste do sizenel leing 'hours in fin larthaek altsnore or iiia? impregnable positions held by ima- ginary Germans, who are finally ]riven Out at the baysn•eb's point.

This first warning is followed by great weariness and becathlessn•ess alter any exertion. You grow melancholy, have fre- quent headae'hes, awake in the morning feeling tired, You become morbid and nervous, starling at the slightest noise, and your heart pal- pitates violently even on going up- stairs. Most girls from fourteen to twenty suffer from anatemi•a, Neg- 1Cet to supply new blood to the languishing, bloodless body, means a life of m+ieery--indeed it is an open invitation to that most hope- less of all diseases; consumption. The new, rieh blood that cures an- aemia and gives new health and strength is readily created by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. That is why these pills have cured more cases of bloodlessness and blood disor- ders than any other medicine. They have made thousands of girls and women strong, well and rosy, with bright eyes and new energy, just be- <ause they nourish the body with new, rich, red blood of health. Here is a typical instance. Miss Laura Dempsey, Auburn, N. Y., says: "For several months I was in a very bad -state of health, with many of the symptoms that accom- pany anaemia. I wits pato and bloodless, had terrible headaches, wou'kl be breathless at the least exertion. Having tried a number of medioines without relief I natur- ally became discouraged and began to fear that I was doomed to con- tinued illnese, At this stage a friend who had herself been bene- fitted by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills urged me to try them. I did no and thanks to the pills I am now enjoy- ing the best of health, and feel that 1 cannot reaaininend this splendid medicine to highly," Other weak •and ailing girls CRC also obtain new health and strength through the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. You can get these pills through any medicine dealer, or they will be sent by mail post paid at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50 by writing The Dr, Williams, Medicine Co„ Brockville, Ont. a• COW -001)E USED BY G1RMANS System Was Used By. Scouts to Direct -the Armies. Crude drawings of cows of vary- ing proportions, some in attitudes of defence, belligerency, or in graz- ing positions, were notined by French officers during the early days of the campaign on the Aisne. The sketches at first were consider- ed the simple efforts of school chil- dren, but the frequency with which this subject appeared on walls, buildings, bridges and in every available place in the departments of Oise and Somme puzzled French officers who conducted a thorough investigation. They are now con- vinced that the system was used by German scouts to direct the armies that were to follow. There was a great variety in the sizes of the drawings ,and in the positions of the heads and other particulars. By comparing notes and dates it was discovered that these crude pictures had a very in- timate relation with passing events. Certain categories of the pictures coincided in every ease with the same developments in the military operations and continuing their researches, they discovered per- fect: ,system of communication F n had thus 'been organized, similar to the system often employed by gypsies and tramps for indicating informa- tion to tihose of their confreres that come after. The position of the animal's head was made to indicate the direction in which the French troops were to be found, and the size of the animal indicated the importance of the forces. A very small cow meant that the route was not veru strong- ly guarded; a cow in a natural po- sition of defence indicated fortifica- tions in the neighborhood, and the size of the animal indicated the strength of the fortifications. A cow •with head raised high indicated that prudence was necessary in ex- ploring the neighborhood 'before venturing farther.

GERMAN MACHINE TOOLS. British Manuftaei:urers Are. A.ftcl' the Trade. In most of the foreign markets in which Germany does much business in machine -tools bho thief attrac- tion is cheapness. This is the ease in markets of so diverse a character as Denmark, Russia and the Argen- tine. In one or rbwo valuable mar- kets, such as Australia and Japan, we 1)aya 'tire barges business, but a good deal of the more elieneentary work oan be done on a cheap class of machin•e, which, if we make it e t all, is certainly not properly mar- keted, or our business would be' larger in those countries where oheapness is a prime consideration, says a Scotch papere We have on other occasions referred to the sell- ing matters and the value of a pro- gressive attitude in this connection. Germany frequently sets about studying a market in a very meth- odioal tVay, and before attempting to send goods finds oat eiaactly what will ,snit it. All this costs a, considerable amount of money, which must be ,spemit before any re- tltrne tali be expected.

Beyers Into Believing Ile Rad Large Force. Sir John French came into pro- minence by a. succession of unusual achievements. He held the Boer at Colesberg and held him on a 20 -mile line with less troops than he now has in reserve. The story of French .at Colesberg is the story of a big hoax. He hoaxed the com- mandant commanding the enemy's forces so successfully that although the Boer was in great numbers lie never dared venture an attack More than this, he had a heavy field gun dragged up the slopes of the al- most inaccessible Coleskop and shelled the ]gagers of the invader with such effect that the Boer gen- eral withdrew his forces to the other bank of the Orange River. This commandant, Gen, Beyers, after- wards discussed the situation with Sir John French, and expressed his total inoredulity when the British general revealed the weakness of 'his force. "We could have eaten you," he said, regretfully. "You tried to once or twice," smiled Sir John, The Boer commandant nodded. "Yes," he said, "'but unfortunate- ly every time we went to take a mouthful we struck the bit with the mustard 1" - After the Boer War there was a great deal :of fraternizing between the rival oommanclers, and .there be- gan many friendships which have so splendidly fructified in. this present moment of crisis. One people learnt much from their whilom enemy, which they have since turned to good advantage. I remember discussing the war with General De Wet in the train between B•roonstadt and the 'Vaal, writes a correspondent. I was par- ticularly anxious to know which branch of the service most impress- ed the Boer, "Undoubtedly the in- fantry," he replied promptly, "Wo started by feeling a little contempt for the foot soldiers—we finished by holding him in a wholesome respect. The cavalry we did not mind — the cavalry divisions never got near enough to do any great damage. i v red that the in- fantryman n- Batwesoond co e tat. i- f n • • an was a different proposi- tion.a ttymp P We at him and killed tion. shot him—,but he came on. In long lines an easy mark for our shots, he ad- vanced up hills which we could have held to doomsday, but there was something so inevitable about that advance of his that our - men got panic-stricken toward the end and would not wait." "The British infantry is inevit- able," the general went on. "Yon might ride away from him,but he Wo}}t,1d ,follow. He wquld turn up as fresh as though he had ,been car- ried all the 'way by wagon. He might be a day or two before he turned sip, but there he would be, and at the end of the war wvlien it was vitally necessary that we .should secure food'and emamunitiou by attacking convoys, even otic, roost desperate burghers hesitated be- fore they moved against a convoy guarded by British infantry.

The rain catch is an institution that many Bermudian householders adopt to provide a supply of fresh water for drinking and washing. Since there are no. :springs or brooks in the Bermudian archipel- ago, and nothing but !brackish wa- ter can be obtained by driving wells in the porous coral rook of which the islands are formed, the law ob- liges every householder to catch and store away in tanks or covered cis- terns enough rain water for his own use. Accordingly, the roofs of all the houses are pitched so es to carry the rain water by a system of gut- ters and pipes into large stone tanks. The roofs are whitewashed three times a year by government regulation, and there is a law that requires every householder to keep his tank in good condition. All Bermudian houses are built of cor- al blooks, roofed over with thin slabs of the sane material. Another method of collecting and preserving the rain water for house- hold purposes is the unique Bermu- dian rain catch. It is a large, slop- ing basin of coral rock placed on a convenient hillside to give it the proper pitch. The floor o.f the basin is :formed by scraping away the thin layer of top soil so as to expose the coral rook. A low wall is raised about three sides of this, and a covered reservoir, partly above and partly below ground adjoins it at the foot of the sloping runway. The whole thing is cemented to make it water -bight, and whitiwashed at frequent intervals to keep it clean. The rain catch, shimmering in daz- zling whiteness in the bright Ber- mudian sunshine against a luxuri- ant green hillside, is one of the most interesting features of the Bermudian p i n landsca e.
