army has been one cavalry division
TO two or three corps. This state OF
affairs has led 70 q considerable outcry
from German critics against the prevail.
ing tendency In Germany to assign cav
airy 10 new and impossible duties. In
the last Eranc0-German war the German
cavalry won d great reputation for its
invaluable service In determining In adj
mi the position of the opposing forces
and by its perfect messenger work.
Without its aid. as has often been said,
all the plans OF the German strategists
would have been in vain. Up to 1880
the cavalry was handled as IL still con-
lned To the limits OF these services and
to striking quick decisive blows at crlti-
cal moments on the battlefield. Re-
Gently this system seems TO have been
abandoned, and in sham battles great
masses Of cavalry have been thrown
against each other and strongly fortified
positions.

Few women realize its value, and yet 1t
is said that Patti and Lucca and oil the
great singers and actresses and famous
beauties, who, like Nine. Recamier,
were wondrously beautiful at an age
when ordinary women retire from the
festive scenes OF life, have owed their
well-preseryed beauty to sleep. A
beautiful woman who at SO has the
briliancy Of youth in her eyes aAd skin
and the animation Of girlhood in her
form, declares (says the Jenness-MNHer
Mdgazinel that she has made II y rule all
her life to retire, whenever possible, at
Q O'clock. And American women need
the rest and refreshment which sleep
alone can give to overweight nerves
and oyerworked systems. Ii sleep is
not easily induced, light physical exer-
else should be taken nightly before retir-
ing until the blood Is directed into proper
channels, and then, upon seeking the
couch, the cyelids will close as naturally
as those Of q healthy child.

NJ. Desbouyerie, in Roubalx, France,
has made many experiments recently in
the use OF swallows instead Of carrier
pigeons for postal services In the war.
Not long ago he let out from their cage
fifteen swallows three weeks old. They
scattered In al directions, and all the
persons whom NJ. Desbouverie had In
vited to observe his experiment told him
he would never see the birds again. In
twenty minutes u swallow came back
and perched on his finger. Within thirty
minutes the last OF the fifteen was In the
cage again. M. Desbouverie says his
repeated tests Of the capabilities OF the
swallows have convinced him that in
war they can be made much safer
and swifter carriers than pigeons. They
fly higher than the pigeons, have a
quicker movement, take their food on
the wing without stopping, as do the
pigeons, have more affection for their
homes, and are many times more intelli-
gent. NJ. Desbouverie has on several
occasions set free all his swallows. and
has then left home on a long pedestrian
tour. The swallows have always flown
along with him, lowered over the restan-
rants he ate in, perched all night in the
trees around the houses he slept In, and
eventually turned up with him all right
at home. He plans to make experiments
shortly to show the superiority Of car
rier swallows to . commission OF French
military men.

The Ring Finger.

1t is a generally known fact that the
fourth or ring finger OF the human hand
IL not on n par with the other fingers, 1t
being the weakest, the least flexible and
the most rebellious in action. Scientific
men explain this fecbleness by the theory
that the lateral tendons joining the ring
finger to the others composing the hand
in a measure paralyze its movements.
To tho majority OF people it
matters littl. that one OF the
fingers shoufS be inferior to the
rest in strength: as a scientific oddity,
however, 1t is worthy of note; to the
pianist or the player OF stringed instru-
ments IL is a source of considerable in
convenience. As art can, in the present
day, remedy most defects which incom-
mode us, n medical man has thought
that something could be done to free the
ring finger. He informs those interested
in the matter that If they wish to have q
strong, flexible fourth finger they have
but to submit to q surgical operation,
which consists in dividing the tendons of
the hand. The operation, which Is very
simple, scarcely deserving Of the name,
has recently been performed on several
New York. Boston and BROOKLYN pianists.
