Parisians Take interest in Struq-

Spectacle.
PEN PICTURE OF FRENCH LIFE
People Make PiIorimases to Points Of
Vantage Behind the Lines Where
Gay Weekend Parties Are
Held - Chatter Shows
Trend Of Thought.
BY GEORGE DUFREsNE.

Paris.-Parisians have become so
used to the war that they are now
taking great interest in 1t as magnifi-
cent spectacle. Daily crowds of
French people and tourists from Eng
land and America make pilgrimages
to points of vantage behind the lines,
and gay weekend parties are held.
The following letter comes from q
hotel near Boulogne-Sur-Mer:
IF you would focus the war, or that
large part of 1t which is collected at
tho base, come to the hotel
In all wars, of course-from Scu.
tart to Capetown-there is Just one
hotel which is, SO to say, a universal
tryst, sort of Charing Cross. where
everyone meets eventually and in the

mountain, where pilgrims of all types
and two sexes jostle and nudge. whore
In flood of khaki and brassards and
woman's uniforms some few civilians
go astray. where the incoming and out
going hero relaxes for a moment his
heroism, where comedy prods tragedy
IN the ribs, where sentiment turns up
holy eyes at quiet courage, and where
all the medley OF actors, interrupted In
their parts by the boots of steamers,
the burr of'hydroplanes and the tramp
of ron' ~arches are apt to miss their

All the meetings begin like that:

or the old, old. ex-major OF something

borrowed the salt OF his character
from the expanses of the unharyested

Wanted His Appetite.
with their noses on the same brass
rail lay two great dogs, lurcher with
every air of aristocracy in his form
and manner, despite his mixed ances-
try, and red Irish retriever. One OF
the masters had come out from bis
county town to hunt down missing
hits. The other had left the stock ex-
change to blossom into train-con-

"Just got an invitation to shoot

from his wife's letter, which he took
from his pocket and read. II you don't

but stopped with jerk, almost with
blush, and put the letter carefully in
his pocketbook.
Then came stories of the dogs

In sea of chatter, of tittle-tattle
mixed with the grimmest anecdotes Of
war in this way.

he was-for a holiday.

Killed Horned Rabbit.

Roscoe. Tex-Another horned rab
bit was killed near here few days

that there is distinct breed OF this

Wholesome Food for Poultry.

Wholesome Food for Poultry.
Poultry should be fed nothing but
clean, wholesome food. Musty and
moldy grains, tainted meat or bone
may cause sickness and death. The
food d-hoppers and water fountains
should be kept clean. Milk, either
sweet or sour, is good poultry food.
When milk is fed. the proportion Of
beef.scrap can safely be reduced one

Chickens Repay Kindness.
Chickens have no sense of affection

To XIII Turkeys.

A good way to kill turkeys is to tie
their feet together, hang the bird on a
pole, and cut the throat so as to bleed
freely. Dry-pick them, leaving head
and wings on. After picked, dip in hot
water and then In cold.

Poultry Pay for Care.

There is many a farm where the
poultry is considered an unimportant
offshoot of the business. which II

duce more money than all the crops
raised.

Cutting Corn for SiIo.

It is better to run the risk of frost
on silage corn than to cut the corn
too early. Wait until the dents are
quite noticeable before cutting corn
for the silo.
