Activity of Russian Women. As Russia was the flrst country where women were given control over their inherited property, and as Petrograd has had for some years the largest medical college for women In Europe, it is not strange that women havo taken such an active part in the military campaigns. In all the revolutionary movements the women students have heen more dangerous perhaps, to the government, than the men. It is believed that the majority of the women amazons are revolutionists and that their military experience was sought for the opportunity it gave them to spread their doctrine.

Time to Fight Mice. The time to fight mice is when you house is still rid of them. First make a hard and fast rule that not a crumh of food is left exposed in kitchen, pantry or cupboard. See also that in the bedrooms of your home no wafers or other tasty bits are left where a mouse might get them and thus find encouragement to take up his permanent abode there. The next thing to do is to cut off the means of entrance to your home, and this si done by seeing that there are no loose passageways Into the cellar or open cavities in the wall or loose woodwork. As a final resource you will perhaps have to choose between a mouse trap and a cat. It all depends on your affinity for the feline pet which you will do. But remember that, whereas permitting mice to lodge In your house was formerly only an act of slothful neglect, it is now one of the crimes of wastefulness, of which no patriotic woman should be guilty.

Women of Toulon Buy Food Much as Is Custom in Some American Cities.
To the continental woman, marketing is both a time-hallowed custom and a leading outdoor sport. Europe has always been far more economical than America, and this method of careful food purchasing is one of the first aids to economical housekeeping, according to Niksah. You see what you are getting, there are always opportunities to pick up bargains, and there are no delivery costs. Marketing by telephone is almost unknown in Europe outside a few big cities, because the telephone is not nearly so much a household institution there as here. Toulon market is open every day from seven o'clock until noon. If you are a Toulon housewife of the upper class, you sally forth about 10 a. m.f followed by a maid with a basket or a cord bag to carry your purchases. If you are not rich enough to have a maid, you carry your own vegetables in an embroidered cloth bag swinging from your arm. This cloth bag is an important point, because it marks you as an independent housewife. If you were to carry a basket or a cord bag, you would be taken for somebody's maid. On either side of the pavement under the plantains are ranged scores of stalls covered with drab awnings. Most of the stallkeepers are women Frenchwomen, Italians, Corsicans, Spanish. They sdl all the vegetables known to botany, and delicacies like mushrooms, snails and ravioli, which is a dish made of macaroni and meat, as well. There are booths for the sale of flowers and medicinal herbs, and chickens and doubtful looking cuts of meat. The cream of the custom comes between nine and eleven. In the last half-hour there is a great bargain sale of everything that will not keep until the next day and the poorer classes rush the booths to purchase slightly damaged but nourishing goods at ridiculously low prices.
VELDT MARKS ITS DWELLERS
Loneliness and Silence Affect Those Doomed to Live in Plain of British South Africa.
Before the Boer war there was a saying current among the Boers of South Africa that you could always recognize a man who had spent five years on the veldt. This was a saying no less true then than now, for the veldt is a place of great silence and loneliness and it leaves its mark on those who dwell in it. The veldt is the great plain of what is now British South Africa, the limitless, featureless stretch of prairie dotted with knobs of hills that the Boers call kopjes, pierced and gashed by rain-washed gullies that run their twisting course from horizon to horizon. The word "veldt" is closely allied to the German word for "world" or "universe," and the relationship is something more than mere coincidence. To the man standing in the midst of this plain it seems to extend in every direction to the outermost limits of space. The veldt is without sound or color, without striking features to catch the eye. A day's trek among low hills covered with gray grass, plods wearily through mile after mile of the same hills, and ends in a dry valley as like the valley of the morning as one pea is like another. After a few days of this the traveler wonders if his progress is not a mere illusion, if he is not returning day after day to the same spot. Now and again the monotony is broken by some veldt farm, a place of exceeding loneliness for the exiles who till it. There will be a farmhouse, a barn, a kraal, a well and a few huts
for the kaffirs. To the railroad may j
be a distance of anywhere from 20 to 70 miles. Half the year the roads are impassable. The little community must be sufficient unto itself. Life on a veldt farm is a severe test of the inner resources of man or woman.
Mongoose as Cat Understudy. Islands in the tropical or semi-tropical seas furnish ideal conditions for rats, and in many instances they have increased until they have become intolerable pests, threatening the total ruin of the inh .cants. On one sugar cane plantation in Puerto Bico 25,000 rats were killed in less than six months?. In Jamaica an effort was made to suppress them by introducing the mongoose, which resulted in the establishment of a second pest. In the Hawaiian islands the introduction of the mongoose caused the rats to take refuge in the tree-tops, where many of them have nests and have arboreal habits, like squirrels. Wherever present on these islaüds t mongoose has rendered it exceedingly difficult to raise domestic fowls of any kind. National Geographic Magazine.
"Twilight Sleep" Has Competitor. "Twilight sleep," it is said, will be superseded by the use of nitrous oxidoxygen gas to make childbirth painless. The latter gas, the new use of which was discovered by Dr. Carl Henry Davis, in Rush Medical college, Is practically harmless, while "twilight sleep" is regarded by American doctors, as being extremely dangerous to the patient. Nitrous gas, according to Doctor Davis, deadens all pain, but allows freedom of thought and action. A patient under its influence can follow instructions, and it need be inhaled only in small quantities and at infrequent intervals to be successful.

An Army Dentist. A gunner of the Garrison artillery, who had successfully passed a blacksmith's course, was home on furlough, wearing the hammer and pincers on his arm, when he was accosted by a civilian, who asked what the decoration was for. '"Oh," replied Tommy, "I'm an army dentist." "I see," said the civilian. "Of course tho pincers are for extracting teeth. But what is the idea of the hammer?" "Well, you see, it's like this. Some of the chaps are a bit nervous, so we use the hammer to chloroform them with," was the reply. London Tit-Bit3.
