Pretty Beads Made Of Salt.

To make salt beads, heat two hand
fuls of common salt as hot as the
hands will stand. Warm one cupful
of cornstarch, and mix with the salt.
Take one cupful Of hot water and col
or it any desired shade with water
colors, and use to form a paste with
the salt and corn starch.
Mold with the hands into the sized
bead required, and have a large cush-
ion ready, so that when large pin is
stuck through each bead the pin can
be at once stuck into the cushion.
One can make beads all of the same
size or graduate the sizes, threading
the large ones in the middle of the
string, and smaller ones at the ends
or groups of large beads can be sep
arated by smaller ones.

For Measuring EarthWork.

Measurements of earthwork in rail-
road fills and cuts constitutes a large
part of the field work in the federal
evolution of railroads, says the En-
cheering Record. The work in
wolves innumerable cross-sections,
and the Importance of any special
means of expediting the work or
minimizing the computations is ap-
parent. An instrument has been de-
vised which entirely eliminates the
need for trigonometric tables in the
stadia work and reduces the calcula-
tons to simple multiplications and
additions. The instrument is stripped
of all attachments not needed for this
work alone and is designed to permit
the most rapid use.

CHOSEN FOR SERVICE
FRENCH coNscRIPTs ARE CARE
FULLY PORTIONED OUT.
AdaptabiIity for Each Branch of the
Army Is Considered at Enlistment
-Large-Hipped Men in the
Cavalry.

What sort of man makes the best
soldier? The French army, where a
good deal of intelligent attention is
given to answering that question, has
recently reconsidered and changed
the standards by which men are as
signed to the different branches of
the service. When the conscripts are
enlisted for their required three years
the recruiting organization must mt
all the round and square pegs Of the
contingents into the round and
square holes of the army.
There are men whose trunk and
shoulders first strike the eye. They
are the upper" men. Broad Shout
ders and long bodies in former days
sent men to the cavalry to be turned
into dashing dragons. But it is now
realized that on horseback they are
top-heavy, and keep their seat with
the spurs. Therefore they are sent
to the infantry. Thanks to their
long, broad backs, they can carry the
heavy load of the foot soldier, and
their short legs make them quick
marchers. Very strong upper" men
go to the artillery, where great
weights have to be lifted as well as
carried.
The middle" men have fairly short
! trunks and well-proportioned legs with
! large hips That brings the center
of gravity down on the saddle when
they are put on horseback. The
middle" men now become the dash
ing dragons.
The "muscularly adaptable" also 60

to be recognized by the curious way
in which their arms appear to be de-
tached from their shoulders. Their

The warrior type" combines mus
cular adaptability with broad shoul

man of that type can serve usefully
in any arm of the service.

SAY GERMANS ROB BELGIANS

LONDON, Dee. 5.-The American relief committee is advised by United States Minister WhitlOck that food sent from the United States for the relief of the Begians taken by the Germans and used for their own purposes
 Large supplies have been sent to the aid of the Bel gans not only by the Americans but by people of other neutral countries and these supplies, it is declared are of the greatest benefit the German army which is now so far away from it's chief bases of supplies in Germany
 Reports this afternoon from Asia Minor throw no light on the movements of the Turkish armies and London is still somewhat at sea to what is to be expected The arrival of the Australian and New Zealand troops Tn Egypt has relieved the tension very much but 1t is still feared that the British forces in Egypt are not strong enough vet to meet the Turkish invasion ii 1t IS earned out in great force The censorship remains very strict The government after many protests has appointed special military correspondent at the front to send the news daily about the fighting but even this does not give full satisfaction However there is general feeling that everything is going favoraby for the allied armies al- though the results are coming admittedly slowly.

PRINCE WAS
 TWENTY THREE
CALLED WAR A PICNIC AND A BURSTING SHELL ENDED
 HIS LIFE.
(By The Associated Press

LONDON, Dec. 3.-The lamented Prince Maurice of Battenberg was Queen Victoria's youngest grandchild and was such a great favorite with the queen that he passed his first few years of his life continuously in her company.
 Just few days before the princess untimely death he wrote to a member of his family: "I am having the time of my life. Don't bother about me. It is like a picnic. l commandered a chicken and cooked it with eggs. Tell Mrs. - (the Princess cook) that it was better than anything she ever cooked"
 Prince Maurice was the youngest son of Princess Henry of Battenberg and first cousin of King George. He was leading his company of the Kings Royal Rifles at Ypres when shrapnel bullet from a bursting shell struck him and ended his life almost instant ly. Prince Maurice was twenty-three years old and held the rank of lieuten- ant in the army. He was the only Prince born in Balmoral Castle. In fact no other prince has been born in Scotland since 1900, when Charles 1 was born at Dunfermline.
 Prince Leopold, Prince Alexander and Prince Maurice, all three sons of Prince Henry, entered the service at the beginning of the war. Prince Leopold was invalided home with a bullet in his knee before the death of his brother The Queen of Spain is a sister of the lamented prince.
