SEVENTY 1HOUSAKD ARE

German Soldiers Separated From Troops Hiding in Adjacent Forests.

BSTERNAY. France, Oct. 31.—Parties of German soldiers separated from the main bodies of troops duringr the German retreat from the Marne ar« still hiding In the woods in this vicinity. The French armies passed on and there are too few soldiers left in tiiis part of France to hunt down the German stragglers. They live upon the country but otherwise commit no deprelations.

Along the whole countryside peasants who have returned point out burial places of those who fell in the fierce fighting In this neighborhood and for €0 miles to, the east. The dead were buried by 800 Paris firemen, assisted by 600 civilian laborers. It is said that tbe tally kept by the firemen shows that 70,000 dead were buried, about 30,600 of them French. The greatest •laughter was In the marshes near Se-

Fifteen thousand dead are

burled In long trenches at the bottom of a wooded hill. French and Germans are buried separately. On the long mounds above the French trenches have been set up rude wooden orosses a few wild flowen have been scattered on the mounds and sometimes large stones have been placed at either end. Caps of French soldiers, showing the name of the regiment, have been placed on the crosses or the stones. The trenches in which the Germans are buried are unmarked. The son of General von Moltke is burled near Esternay.

Qrim Toll of War.

Champlllon, about two miles southeast of Coulommlers, is the farthest place south reached by the Germans on their maroh for the investment of Farla. The village did not have more than 25 houses. All were burned. Twelve Inhabitants have returned and among other repairs have patched up the school house. Six children are being taught there.

Strewn over the plain near FereChampenoise are email piles of empty cartridge shells, pleoes of broken rifles, artillery carriages, fragments of uniforms and various other wreckage from the fighting. In an open space about two miles lonf by a mile ^ide were some thickets where the German quick-firers had been concealed. On the ridge ebhind were plated German long-range guns, which were doing great damage to the French. It was here that three regiments of Turkos asked to be allowed to charge the height on which was the artillery. Nothing was known of the quick-firers In the bushes in the middle of the field. The three regiments started. When they were within easy range the German quick-firers opened upon them. Only about half a regiment succeeded In getting forward and taking the machine guns. Reserves were then brought up and another charge resulted In the capture of the German guns on the hills after tremendous hand-to-hand encounters.

Step German Hymns.

To enable the British clergy to recognise made-in-Germany hymns, a list of them has been prepared by the Guardian, a London church newspaper, wtileh has opened its columns to a discussion of the propriety of using these hymns in the English service.

It

German hymns were banned, the Bngllsh hymnal would be deprived of 0ome of its oldest and most popular numbers. Luther's famous version of the 46th psalm, "A Sure Stronghold Our God Is He," would be perhaps the most regretted of all excisions. Other familiar numbers of German origin are "Hark, the Herald Angels Sing "Sun of My Soul, My Savior Dear "Christ Whose Glory Fills the Skies "As With Gladness Men of Old "Christ the Lord is Risen Again "We Plough the Fields and Scatter "Hail to the Lord's Annointed "Oh Happy Land of Pilgrims," and "Commit Thou All Thy Ways."

Lutheran hymns are popular not only in the Wesleyan Methodist church which is allied to Lutheranism, but a1so In the Church of England, which regards itself as a part of the ancient Catholic church and not a part of the reformation.

Since the Wagner nights excite as much enthusiasm as ever in the queen's hall concerts, it is not believed that the agitation against German hymns will find a strong following.

Make Loose 7 eeth Firm and Strong

More care, thought and attention are given to teeth today than ever in the world's history, says the Manchester Guardian. In all parts of the civilized globe children are eyamined in public, private and parochial schools for teeth affections. Grown-ups are looking nut for dental microbes. It has been shown that these little yellow spots on the Ipcih are sheltering places for g-erms that under the cover of these spots eat holes ino the hard white enamel and thus make teeth cavities. Testh ?rit, tartar and hard substances between the teeth and the gums, cause teeth separation and bring on bleeding and nerve troubles. Soreness and ulcers come from dental microbes. Pyorrhoea does not come upon one all of a sudden it is a slow growth of tiny teeth troubles that culminate in the big disorder. One Is told to avokl the yellow coating of the teeth and blaek on the enamel inside the mouth. Loose teeth are a source of danger to the entire dental organization.

Thc.se troubles can easily be overcome if one will but take action early. A good plan is to get from the druggist about four ounces of fluid ergan and use a teaspoonful morning noon and night, rocking this about in rhe mouth for a minute or so. This washes away the microbes that infe-st the mouth in sheltered crac?*s and crannies, in frontal teeth as well as molars. The yellow coating peels of'over night and in the mornins- you observe your own white of the teeth. The loose teeth no longer reck to and fro because they become etrong and firm. Soreness disappears, the tonyue, teeth and the little recesses ere cleansed and washed out. Thus you save youi- teeth and need not buv gold fillings, porcclain fillings, or store J»eeth*

APPLE GROWERS TOLD TO STORE THEIR FRUIT

Cold Storage Advised to Prevent Glutting Market—Have to Save the Fruit.

WASHINGTON, Oct., 81—In view cf the interference with the Euroj^ean market and the large production of American apples thle season, specialists of the department of agriculture call the attention of apple growers to the advantages of cold storage for steadying the market at harvest and for lengthening the selling period.

Glutting of the market will result, it iB feared, in many thousands of barrels of good apples rotting in the orchard or being disposed of at prices which figure a net loss to the grower.

The following are the directions given by the apple handling specialists of the department for using cold storage successfully in handling apples: "The proper function of cold storage is to retard the ripening processes of the fruit and the development of decay organisms and skin blemishes. The first responsibility for the keeping quality of his fruit rests with the grower since it is his growing and handling methods that largely determine its vitality, freedom frot^. disease and general condition when stored. Cold storage is not a remedy or a restorative for poorly developed, weak, imperfect fruit, but is the most effective method of preserving the quality, flavor and appearance possessed by the fruit at time of picking. "Assuming this as the first requisite, the following factors have been found to most influence the keeping quality of the fruit, and furnish best conditions for long storage: "1. Proper maturity at time of picking. "2. Care in handling operations. "3. Prompt storage after picking. "4. A proper storage temperature. "Careful and extensive investigations have demonstrated that fruit picked at full maturity can oe held for a longer period In storage, and is less affected by scald and decay than that picked when somewhat immature. Two important commercial varieties, Rome Beauty and Winesap, have been found to be especially susceptible to scald during storage, if picked prematurely. There is no doubt that several thousand dollars are lost to the industry each year through the improper picking of these two varietlss alone. The results emphasize strongly that more care and attention should be paid to this detail of the harvesting operations than is usually the case.

By full maturity, however, is not meant over-maturity, which may cause fully as heavy losses as immaturity. Each grower should study his »v/n fruit and his own conditions in ord*r to determine the proper picking stage Probably the most reliable single indication of maturity is the whitening or slight yellowing of the "ground color" of the fruit. This is the color underlying the blush or red color and should not be confused with the latter.

WINDOW GAZER, HYPNOTIZED.

Los Angeles Lights too Much for an Ohio Man. LOS ANGELES, Oct. 31.—Rigid ns a mummy, Louis A. Albright, a visitor! from Canton. O., was found gazing into a necktie shop at Fourth and 1 Spring streets by the police early In I the morning.

He was apparently held In a hypnotic trance by an electric globe revolving before a reflector of many colors and many facets.

It was only after hours of work by sura-eons at the receiving hospital that Albright was restored to full eonuclouBnes' -s *.
