Bank of England is having the benefit
of the large weekly shipments Of gold
from South Africa. 1t has been gain
ing gold on debt accounts from the
United States in shipments to Ottawa,
which are counted as in it's own
vaults.
But Germany has practically been
cut off from the outside world. Its
bank cannot gain gold either from the
foreign trade, which has virtually been
destroyed, or from foreign borrow
ings. 1t has been presumed that the
gold carried by the government in the
famous and mysterious war chest of
Spandau has been transferred to the
Reichsbank, but as this sum is not
supposed to exceed s60,OOO,OOO, against
a tabled sum of billion or so, we have
s51, 100000 still to account for.
Where did the German bank get that
sum? Apparently from the pockets OF
the German people who have volun-
tarily turned over their circulating
gold coin to the bank and accepted pa
per instead. 1t is not an impossible
thing, but it would be the first instance
on record of a people desperately in
volved in war who spontaneously and
unanimously refused to respond to the
boarding instinct and emptied their
pockets and stockings and chimney
inches Of the money which most seeks
hiding at such a time.-New York

quart of water purple. Then add a
teaspoonful of peroxide Of hydrogen to
the quart of purple solution.
Catch the chicken and, holding its
feet and wings in the left hand shake
it's head around in the solution with the
right hand. Repeat twice, or until the
solution has entered all the passages Of
the head and had an opportunity to at
tack the fungus growth. 1t is advisable
to give this treatment in the early
stages of the disease, before the warts
become brown and scaly, as it is diff
cult to kill the fungus hidden under
hard scale. In that case, it is best to
sharpen a small stick and remove the
hard scale over the warts, then souse
the head in the solution, and the per-
manganate will eradicate the disease.
Other useful remedies can be painted
on the head and sores with a feather
These are iodine, Parsons creloin, and
sulphate of copper. Good results are
obtained by greasing the head with
mentholatum and carbolized vaseline.

WAR CENSORSHIP
News from the Front Sometimes
Causes Serious Trouble.

News from the Front Sometimes
Causes Serious Trouble.
Only a few years ago it would have
been thought impossible to impose
such a strict censorship Of the press in
the European war zone as that eXer-
cised at the present moment. Yet that
imposed by the japanese was latitude
itself in comparison.
Even so long ago as the Napoleonic
wars, when news travelled Slowly,
items of intelligence in the press help
ed the enemy. Wellington complained
about it again and again, once remark
ing that if the public chose to have
such news it ought to know the price
it paid for it.
He pointed out that the French knew
exactly what he was going to do from
the English papers, and obtained in
formation of his forces and his posi-
tions. A French general, writing to
another then fighting Wellington,
stated that Napoleon read the English
papers, and was therefore much better
informed of the plans and movements
of the British army in Spain than he
was, although he was actually oppos-
ing it.
There are letters written by Napol-
con showing the immense value the
news in the English papers was to the
French army. In one he sends jour
nal to a general and asks him to copy
the important items and send them on
to others.
1t was the same in the Boer war. The
Dutch agents bought British papers,
and sent information to South Africa,
in one case a ''regrettable incident
being brought about, thanks to letter
from a soldier at the front published in
a local paper by a too Jealous editor.
Whether it is true or not, it has been
said that certain information concern
ing the Boer position at Colenso, to-
gether with criticism of that battle
which appeared in a French journal
gave the British army an idea which
was put into practice during the fights
which relieved Ladysmith.
Even the Mad Mullah profits by
reading the English and Indian news
papers, and recently particulars con-
cerning British operations TO keep him
in check were refused for that very
reason.
Perhaps it might even be said that
French and English journals had some
result on the issue of the last Franco
Prussian war. At one time the Ger
mans were rather hazy about the
French plans, and when they saw their
own ideas were not in accord with
those family shadowed in London pa
pers they began to doubt.
When the same news appeared in
sundry French newspapers they
thought they had better see if such a
plan were being put into execution.
Acting on these lines, they soon found
their own ideas had been wrong, but
the information obtained allowed them
to alter their dispositions before re-
suming operations-New York Times.

Humorous department.

The Calf Would be Lackins.-A
country boy was leaving home to
make a living, and probably a name
for himself. His father and mother
had given him some money and a
great deal of advice. He had situa-
ton in a distant city, and, as he had
never taken kindly to farm work, IL
looked like good opportunity for
him.
But there's one thing l wanter say
ter ye," the old man said, as he hand
ed the boy his luggage out of the wag-
on at the station. and ! want you TO
understand that l say it in all kind
ness, You are going out into the
world with pretty good prospects.
"Yes. father"
"And at the same time you're to
move into the neighborhood of the
wicked and ungodly where your foots
liable to slip any minute"
"Yes, father"
"W-a-a-l, what l wanter say is just
this: The farms goin' to stay right
here, where you can always turn to IT,
but times has been mighty hard late
". and the farm never was very pro-
ductive."

said: Tommy has been very naugh-

with him."

Gold in the War.-BOth the Bank OF
England and the Imperial Bank of
Germany have continuously increased
their holdings of gold since the war
began until in each case their stocks
of the metal have become the largest
ever known to them. The German
bank now holds Sill, ,OOO,O 900 more gold
than at the outbreak of the war; the
British bank holds sl5S.OOO,OOO more.
1t is easier to explain the gain of the
British than that of the German bank.
Englands foreign trade is still unbrok-
en-, though reduced by the war. The
