SUFFERED MARTYDROM
 TO SAVE THE OTHERS.
Noble Deed of a French School
 Teacher.

PARIS, March 4.-The story has reached Paris of how a school teacher sacrificed himself to save the mayor, cure and a number of citizens of his village in the Aisne, a few miles from the Belgian frontier.
 After the battle of CharlerOi, the Germans captured the village of D. without firing a shot, and a company of the Prussian Guards made it their headquarters for two days. Toward the end of the second day, while the Germans were preparing to leave the village, a shot rang from nO-One knows where. The German officer in command hastened at once to the mayor A dozen hostages were re- quired upon the spot, to be shot be- nightfall, if the guilty man was not denounced or did not give himself up. No-oue had been hit by the shot but the officer declored that he had heard the bullet whistle close to his head.
 "Very well" said the Mayor, you want hostages. Here I am to begin with"
 |" And I, also" declared the cure.
 Three of the older inhabitants of the village came forward, which made five, Then the Germans took seven more inhabitants into an open field near the church. The firing squad was ready and the hostages lined up against a wall, when the school teacher NJ. Michon. ran up.
 q am the guilty one," he said simp- ly. "Yes, it is I who fired just now. Release these men and take me, I am ready; I'm not afraid to die"
 Several of the villagers present had seen Michon leave his SchoolhouSe with his pupils at the exact moment when the shot was fired But he persisted in his declaration and at 2 o'clock in the evening he was shot

LONDON, March S.-The use of the telephone as an aid to surgery by communicating to the operator the noise of contact of knife, forceps or probe with foreign bodies imbedded in the flesh, has been discovered and perfected by Sir James Mackenzie Davidson, who says his method will do much to simplify military surgery.
 The X-ray, says Sir James, has serious limitations. It shows the pres ence of the foreign body, but gives no idea of the depth this body has penetrated or of its relation to the parts among which it has lodged. Sur geons often fail to find the object seen in silhouette on the fuOrescent screen.
 It is not necessary to have man full of shrapnel brought from the trenches to demonstrate the use of the telephone in surgery, as potato and a nail do quite as well. The surgeon uses a double pair of receivers, such as worn by wireless operators. One of the telephone wires is attached to a piece of platinum foil. In a real operation this foil is held in place on the patients skin by plaster or band age. In the experiment, the potato is dipped into salt water and placed on the foil. To the end of the other telephone wire is attached small sterilized silver wire, which in turn is made fast to the knife, probe, needle or forceps used in sounding the wound or incision.
 When the surgeons instrument touches metal, whether in flesh or in a potato, a distinct and unmistakable grating noise results. This means the foreign body is discovered.
 There exists a popular fallacy that it is necessary to remove not only bull lets but every scrap of metal from the wound. But experience has shown that the human body does not mind little metal, and the removing of bull lets is often too dangerous to attempt.

WOUNDED BY BITS
 OF HUMAN BEINGS.
Soldier Shot in the Eye by the Tooth
 of Another.


 PARIS, March 4-The remarkable wounds that are caused by ricochet- ting bullets and secondary projectiles, and are being discovered by surgeons in ever-increasiug variety are com mented on by Henri de Varigny, in the Debat.
 Not only are deformed bullets ire quently found in wounds, but with them unusual substances as bits of bone from the bodies of other men, metal and medals and money, pieces of cloth and other articles.
 The presence of these extraneOus substances in wounds invariably means that they have been projected by ricochetting bullets An officer recently was found to have been in jured by part of the forearm of one of his men, one man was struck by stone that had been projected by bullet.
 In another case a part of one mans jaw bone was picked out of another mans wound; still another soldier lost the sight of his eye by being struck with a efllow-soldier's tooth.
 From the various field hospitals come reports of finding in supposed bullet wounds such unusual objects as buttons, nails, fragments of eye glass es, pieces of teeth, slivers of wood and bone, eyelets, scraps of leather and coins.
 In one case a projectile struck a mans pocket and glanced off with out scratching the skin, but the bull let hit another man, and in the wound were found bits of cloth from the first soldiers uniform, and 20 deformed pieces of gold from coins that were forced out of the pocket

inspired by interests who anxious to involve the United

Mexican and has his individual method of dealing
with him which has always effective in the past,

wonderfully patient in the face of this situation
Under other conditions than those existing Texas
would dispose of the border warfare business in short

during the past years prove the world that the
United States does not want with Mexico might be

When peace returns and Europe foots up the cost
its butchery it will be found that the loss of
man life that Of live stock has been the serious In
the western field trench warfare precudes the
airy but the waste of horseflesh nevertheless goes
INCREASINGLY On the eastern front there added the
wastes of the transportation service the larger waste

said to ten days. Figure up and what is
becoming of the pillow horses of Germany Austria France
England and Russia. Grant that gedings and sterile
mares have far been use the time cannot be far dis
tant when the breeding stock of the warning nations

And what is said of these horses applies in large mea-
to other stock The plains of Poland and Prussia
have been swept by fire and sword the live center
of Belgium and northern France is waste. And the
armies in the field must ea-fteen millions of men to

The advice given F. S. & H. readers at the outbreak

mands that will be made upon America is still good and
profitable to the who follows it.
