Elephants and cameIs Drill.

Elephants and camels, carrying two
machine-gun sections of the Twenty
eight company of the United States
marine corps Quartered at the exposi-
ton at San Diego, Cal, took part in ex-
perimental maneuvers and quickly
demonstrated the feasibility of their
use in actual warfare conditions such
as now obtain in Mexico.
Mounting enc operator and tripod
machine gun to an elephant, attended
by several United States marines on
foot, the elephants displayed surpris.
ing agility in traversing over rough
ground and wheeling into proper posi-
ton for firing. The elephants, when
ordered to lie down, made a perfect
breastworks, behind which the ma
rines were enabled in 30 seconds to
employ an effective machine-gun fire.
Both elephants and camels would
prove useful in an extended campaign,
such as the present one in Mexico, an
official declared, for both can carry
large loads and can go long distances
without water. Elephants are more
nervous under fire than camels; but
with proper training they can be cured
OF gunshyness.

cessfully, to keep the story from the

PLANT YOUR HARDY GARDEN
NOW
By E. VAN RENTHuYsEN.

A hardy garden is the garden for
the busy woman. It will last for years
and be a delight to her and to her
neighbors with very little care.
Take a careful survey of your re-
sources and make a study Of your own
Individual problem. Book taught
gardeners may be all right up to a
certain limit, but one seasons expert
ment along your own lines will give
you an insight into plant life that,
aside from being a most fascinating
study, will teach you more than
years of reading.
Those who wish to plant roses and
not bother with them more than to
prune and fertilize annually and keep
the ground mellow about the plants
should plant hybrid perpetual roses.
The hybrid perpetuals are the hardi-
est of roses and will stand more cold
weather than any other species.
The following are desirable speci-
mems: Anne de Diesbach, bright car
mine; Baroness Rcthschild, an ex-
quisite pink; La France, blooms all
summer; Frau Karl Druschki, snow
white, has splendid buds and immense
flowers, four to five inches across, and
is delightfully."- fragrant; General JAG
queminot. a popular rose of brilliant
red; Paul Neyron, lovely dark pink;
Gruss an Teplitz, a strong, vigorous
grower, of richest crimson; Killarney,
both pink and white. are hardy, and
Mrs. John Laing, rose of delicious
fragrance and of rich satiny pink

bloom and be a picture worth looking
at.

and sunfiowers. It is not so expensive,

ing.
Hardy roses require ordinarily good
garden soil, well enriched with we'll

open, sunny position clear of the roots
of all trees and shrubs. 1t is we'll to

at least nine inches below the surface
of the ground, the soil made firm about
them and then should be literally wa.
tered.
Hollyhocks succeed best in rich,
well-drained soil, and should be light
ly protected during the winter months
with coarse straw Or spruce boughs.
Larkspur seed sown in the open
ground early win produce towering
plants by the beginning Of July, and
will give continuous succession of
bloom from then until frost. 1t is ex-
cellent fer cutting and very orna-
mental 1t produces in a great vari-
ETY. CT forms and colcrs some of the
most beautiful flowers in cultivation.
All varieties are easily cultivated and
adaptable to most conditions, but in
a sell deeply dug and well enriched
with fine cid manure, their blooms are
the finest. Set from one and one half
to two feet each way.
Iris (heur-de-lis), the national
flower of France, is another~perfect-
ly hardy plant. They grow in any or
binary garden soil luxuriantly, and
bloom in June. The German iris
should be planted largely where cut
flowers are in demand, as it certainly
is the best of its class
Perhaps the most snowy and gor-
geous of the iris family is the Japanese
iris. The flowers are often ten inches
in diameter and bloom in July. There
are many beautiful colors among both
iris. White family tinged with Law
ender, light bronze, yellow and bright
blue, royal purple, grayish white, and
a pure white are among the colors
shown
Phlox, another plant on our list, can
not be surpassed for brilliant color
ing and continuous bloom. Sow phlox
out of doors in May, in a situation
well open to the sun. They will flow
er in July and continue until late in
the fall.
Old-fashioned Glove pink, and its
more elegant relation, the carnation,
flower SO easily as an annual that it
has attained a most popular position
among garden plants. The beautiful
flowers make an attractive display
with their world of color, and are
greatly to be desired as a table deco
raticn and also as a border plant.
Pinks grow easily from seed and
come true to cclor. Sow out of doors
when danger from frost is over. If
the seed is sown early enough the
perennials will bloom the first year.
There are great many other plants
that arc hardy and desirable, this is
but mere beginning. Choose the
flowers you are fond Of and the work
will be more successful and more
pleasant. But have garden new, no
matter how small.

RECORD is NOT ALL ONE OF
DEATH AND PAIN.
Stories That Come From the Trenches
Ia Europe Recall Similar Instances
Of Gallant Deeds by American
Revolutionary Soldiers.

A gallant foe respects the courage
of his enemy. From the fighting line
in France came lately the story how
German officer, under suspicion of
having improperly surrendered for
tilted angle of the German trenches
that was shortly after retaken by his
compatriotS, was only saved from pun
ishment and the ruin of his career by
a Frenchman whom he had severely
wounded. The French soldier, on his
way to hospital prison, learned by
chance of the accusation, and he in
sisted, at the cost of frightful pain
and exhaustion-for his wound was
in the cheek and jaw-upon debating
the testimony that cleared the man
who had nearly killed him and had
disfigured him for life.
A notable instance of a soldiers
chivalrous defense of his enemy's rep
utation occurs in the history of our
own country, as an American historian
has pointed out.
John Calender, an artillery captain
at the battle of Bunker Hill. was
caught by General Putnam in the very
act of leaving his post, and was or
dered back under pain of being shot
There was no time to listen to ex-
PLANTATION or remonstrance. When
the fight was over Callender's state
ment that his pieces had become
jammed, and that he was withdrawing
them to cover for repairs would prob
ably have been accepted had it not
been also unfortunately true that the
men under lis command had all bolt
ed, shamelessly abandoning the guns.
At least, SO it appeared; although the
fact was that they had broken away,
not to fly, but to fight lin the ranks
with >muskets snatched from the dying
and dead. But the court-martial that
tried the unhappy captain cashiered
him for cowardice.
At once Calender did a brave
thing; Drawer than fighting, although
it meant fighting, too. Deprived of
his commission, he re-enlisted as a
private; and his comrades, if any
Stunned him at first, soon learned to
believe in his innocence 1t was to
British officer, however, that he
owed his complete vindication In
the course of losing battle, Callen-
der, fighting with desperate courage,
continued to load and fire his gun af-
ter all his officers were killed and his
companions had retreated When his
ammunition was gone he mounted as
tride the gun, resolved that his death
at his post should give the lie to his
unjust condemnation. His conduct SO
aroused the admiration of the British
officer opposed to him that he ordered
his men not to fire on the solitary, I'M
armed hero, but to close in and cap
ture him. Then learning his story, he
refused even to hold him prisoner,
but dismissed him without exchange,
bearing a letter to General Washing
ton that testified to his courage.
Washington joyfully restored his
commission and ordered his sentence
erased from the records Youths
