NATIONAL HEROES OF FRANCE Lazare Hoche and Ferdinand Foch Are Names to Be Forever Held in Grateful Memory. Marshal Foch is inking a particular satisfaction at tills time of the eutisiimmaticm of a great victory to pay homage to the fame of Lazare Hoche. the famous young general w ho escaped the Revolutionary guillotine eventually to command that army of the Sain-bre-et-Meuse which, though at first disorganized, badly fed and badly equipped, performed Hie brilliant seven months' campaign which established tiie reputation of French arms on both sides of the Rhino. To tills day at Weisseiithunn st.-ieds » monument to its memory and that of its brilliant young chief. No wonder Marshal Foch takes pleasure in recalling Lazare Hoche to Ids countrymen. <*f Hoche it is said that he once proudly wrote to the minister for war of ids day. “Je suis la patrie." The French of tlie present century would throw tip their hats at such a sentiment ns enthusiastically as the contemporaries of Hoche and Houget de Lisle. With the great mass of them, though they do not perhaps express it so tersely. Foch is "la patrie" In the sense that he certainly stands for them as "la Yktoire” personified.

High Heels Lessen Vitality. High heels prevail in spite of the promise of something wiser in build coming into popular favor. Yet. to quote a well-known doctor: "No woman pretends that she Is comfortable when wearing high heels nor can she hope to be graceful when wearing them, for the body Is thrown suit of poise and tlie action of the feet is restricted. More serious than her awkwardness the eventual Injury to her health. For In the effort to preserve her equilibrium the shoulders are thrown forward, depressing the chest; breathing is Interfered with, and that mentis poorer blood and a final decrease in vitality. Till's conies gradually, but It Is inevitable when n woman persists in wearing very high heels. Her heels should conform to tiie arch if her Instep.”—Exchange.

Use for Surplus Munitions. An Interesting suggestion has been made by a prominent Swiss meteorologist and physicist. M. de Qiiervnln of Zurich, to tlie effect that tlie vast stores of munitions collected in the belligerent countries during the last four ytars be utilized to advance ttie cause of science instead of being merely fired off to make a Roman holiday, or else sunk in deep waters to avoid tiie Intent dangers which reside In them. By detuning these explosives (n definite quantities, at definite places, and at definite times whose dates are announced in advance, a possibility would be presented for the solution of many interesting problems in physics and meteorology. The project might advantageously he carried out in this country.

Cryptic Cable. For smartness the following will he hard to beat: A well-known personage In Devonshire, England, received a cable from Ids soldier son In Mesopotamia containing only three words’ “Two John twelve.” After much puzzling the meaning dawned upon him Taking down his llible he turned up the Second Epistle of St. John and read the twelfth verse, which runs as follows: "Having many things to write unto you, I would not write with paper and Ink, but I trust to coma unto you and speak face to face, that onr Joy may be full." His son was on his way home to England.

Formerly wedding notice* were devoted to the bride, her trousseau. her bridesmaids and her family. The bridegroom was mentioned only incidentally. if at all. Ry reason of hit rank, lie lias become one of Hie most Important persons In tbe alliance.— rbiludelpbiu i’ublic Ledger.

Senator Set Altogether Too Fact a Pace for Even Veteran Gore to Follow. A senator was entertaining some friends with stories about the Arizona desert, when a hore joined tlie party. This bore was the kind of a chap that always laughs In tiie wrong place and spoils a story by trying to guess its (Umax. The senator undertook to silence him. "Poor Ferguson I” lie said. "Tlipt was n close shave lie had In the desert lust August.” “Sunstroke, of course.” said tlie bore. “No, not exactly.” said the senator. "You see, Ferguson stumbled accidentally on the Cauldron—our famous spring, you know, that gushes out of the rock nt freezing point and immediateiy begins to iioil from tlie fierce heat of tiie sun." ' "Of course, of course,” said llie bore. "And what happened to Ferguson? Did he fall In the cauldron and boil to death? Get on with your story, man.” "(jorguson fell in." said tlie senator, “but lie managed to scramble out again. Tbe peril, however, was not yet over for him. Our Arizona air, you see, is so dry that it absorbs moisture with astonishing rapidity. Well, the boiling water In Ferguson’s clothes evaporated so fast that tlie poor fellow instantly froze stiff." "I see." said the hore. "He died of cold. Well, that reminds me—’’ “No. he didn't die,” said tlie senator. "He almost died, hut lie bad a mirneqb us escape. In bis stiff frozen state, you understand, he began to shiver with chill, and he shivered so hard that In a few moments he became overheated and would have succumbed to sunstroke If he hadn't providentially broken into a cold sweat.”

Outspoken Athenian. More than twenty-three hundred years ago a young Athenian, speaking of his Wife, said to Socrates: “When 1 saw that she had powder on her face to make it whiter and rouge to make it redder, and that she wow-high-heeled shoes to appear taller, 1 told her It was as dishonorable for her to try to deceive me about her beauty as for me to try to deceive her about my property. I added that, although her arts might impose upon others, they could not impose upon me. who saw her at all times.”—Youth’s Companion. — Jolly Little Chipmunk. The place the chipmunk fills Is small and inconsequent but his sylvan “chirrup” plays a minor strain in the wordless diapason which the mighty blue soul of nature Is forever singing in her forests; solemn and consoling to lioal earth’s scars; jubilant and glad for the free of heart. Intonating ever j some clear sweet note of mystic melody for those who listen, to awaken n dreaming bliss or to thrill an untried fiber into quiverisg life.

Peruvian Flower Festival. Peru celebrities a custom which dates from soon after the Spanish ennI quest. All soldiers’ graves alike are decorated, including those of peons and Indians, individuals little regarded In Peru, at all events during life. In ttie evening tlie populace gives itself over to feasting and merrymaking. This pnrilciilar flower festival Is held annually on November 1.

Hiding a King’s Statue. The fine equestrian statue of King Gharles I. which was hidden in London for protection during tin* w ar, has been brought to light again. Ttie statue, which was east during the reign of tlie monarch, according to reports lias not enjoyed the uneventful career permitted to most works of its kind. It was executed for Sir Richard Weston, afterward earl of Portland, who intended to place it as an ornament in his garden at Roehampton. But tills function it never fulfilled, for it was seized by parliament during tlie Civil war and sold to one John Rivett. a brazier, to lie broken up. John, however, being a royalist, hid the statue, and. hy selling hundreds of bronze knife handles purporting to be made from it. disarmed any parliamentary suspicions in the matter. On tlie restoration of Charles II in HMiO Rivett produced the statue, which was claimed by Sir Richard’s son. The brazier refused to yield It, and after years of dispute it was eventually presented to King Charles II and erected on the spot formerly covered by tlie original Charing cross.

Satisfaction in Doing Right. Imagination is the father and mother of trouble when we let it run loose In a time of stress. But in tlie end tlie will and the heart are what determine our fate. After all. when we do right we have some satisfaction even if we suffer. But if we do nothing but drift along we have not oven the satisfaction of knowing we deserve to come out right.

Battles on Sundays. The date of the battle of Salamanca 1 was Sunday, July 2, 1812; Vlmiero. Fcuntes d onor. Orthez, Toulouse and Vittorla were also contested on what were known as "Wellington's Red Sundays.” Waterloo was won on a Sunday and the greatest attack on Cronj<'s trenches at Pnardcberg was made on a Sunday—Fob. is, P.iod.

Waiting in Agony. At a recent wedding tbe bride was deinyeti'n lirile in making her appearance. When nt last she did appear she breathlessly ran up to the embarrassed bridegroom, who had been waiting for her in agony and putting her arms around bis neck exclaimed: "Oh. John, dear, 1 am so sorry I am late.”

Antarctic "Shelf Ice.” From the work of recent explorations. S,r Douglas Mnwson concludes that tin* rock foundation on which the Antarctic Ice cap rests is very Irregular. partly above sen level and partly below, and that Its thickness, which is very variable, may reach a maximum of several thousand feet. Under tlie thickest iMirtions the static pressure at the base may be ns great as one ton per square inch. Under such u covering there may lie a considerable accumulation of ground heat, and it is a< stitned that the under portion < f the in mass is undoubtedly soft tuid plastic. Whore tbe sea breaks up the ice at a rate faster Hum tlie flow, the sea front is substantially tin 1 const line. Rut elsewhere, ns in the Great Ross harrier ntid tlie Shaeklefon shelf, die supply of Ice exceeds the rate of erosion nt the sea front, and the overflow from the Intid maintains a thick sheet of "shelf lee” extending fur out to sea. Tlie sea front of tiie ice cap, at the present rate of advance or flowing out, is estimated to have left the center in the seven!It century of our era.

Value of Uncooked Food. Man cannot digest and assimilate the mineral elements In rock; hence it is necessary for him to got tlie elements for structural work from fruits and vegetables, In their fresh, uncooked state; for cooking destroys the chemistry—the chemical synfliesis with albumin Is lost.—J. II. Tlhlen, M. D.

Paste for Brown Leather. An excellent paste for brown leather Is made of two ounees of soft soap, four ounces of beeswax, two ounces of turpentine and half an ounce of neat's foot nil. Melt soap, wax and oil together. then remove from fire and add the turpentine. Stir well. When cold apply with a brush.
