HOW FAR CAN YOU sEEa

Some interesting experiments have
been made in the German army with
the object of discovering at what dis
lance the recognition of one soldier
by another is reliable.
For soldiers with good eyes it was
found that person seen once before
could be recognized at distance of
80 feet, while an acquaintance could
be recognized at distance of 800
feet, and an intimate friend or rela-
tive at a. distance of 500 feet. The
various parts of a mans body can be
distinguished and any decided move
ment can be detected by an expert
rifeman at a distance of 800 feet. At
1900 feet man appears as spot
on the landscape and cannot usually
be seen if he keeps still or if his dress
does not contrast with the back
ground.
Sailors, hunters and farmers can
usually see twice these distances,
probably on account of their constant
training in making out the nature
of distant objects.-Popular Me-
chanics.

FASHION ABOVE ALL THINGS
Women Cannot Be Frightened Into an
Abandonment of What Has
Been Decreed.

Tell a man that tight belts will
cause appendicitis and he loosens his
belt at once. Warn him that stiff
hats make the hair fall out and he
carries his hat in his hand until he
can find a soft one to put on. This
is one of the striking differences be-
tween men and women.
You cannot scare woman with
any such threat. 1t must be centu-
rles since women were told that cor
sets would be the everlasting ruin of
them. But is there any decrease in
the use of these articles? None that
is indicated by the windows of the
dry goods stores. Tight skirts were
bound to. shorten their steps perma-
nently. V-necks would invite ills
with the most terrifying names. Fur
collars would weaken their resistance
to murderous germs. But what did
the women think of these caution
ings? About as much as you would
think of the humming of a gnat.
They wore the tight skirts until they
were blessed well ready to abandon
them. They barred their necks to the
wintry breezes as if there were no
such thing. You may be sure that
the fur collars will not come off I'M
til they become unfashionable.-To-

SHOULD HAVE LEFT TIMBER
BY Removal Of Forests Lose by Soil
Erosion Has Been Increased to
an Enormous Extent.

When the soil is carried away from
one place it goes to another, it is not
dissolved and lost. The United
States geological survey has made an
estimate Of the amount of silt car
ried by number of rivers in the
country, and, with the exception of
the Mississippi and the Missouri, the
Tennessee river stands at the head of
the list, the estimate being 11,000,-
600 tons per annum. Whenever the
water in the river is turbid it is made
so by contributions from the soil ad-
Jacent to the river and its tributaries.
So every time the river waters are
muddy they are made so by soil ero-
sion. 1t is hardly necessary to dis
cuss these things in their relations to
agriculture. 1t is easily seen that
the enormous amount of soil that is
carried into the streams, into the
oceans and the gulf is that much
done for the improvement of the soil,
AS the forests in our hill country
have been denuded, erosion has
grown worse. The farmers of this
east Tennessee section would have
been vastly better off today than they
are had they left the timber standing
on the hills. The timber was wasted,
and with it removed the soils have
been wasted to the extent that what
is left is unproductive.-Knoxville
Journal and Tribune.

urged around the garage into the dark

He reached the rear gate, still
munching And then thought struck
him. Those two women hal seemed
desperately anxious to be rid OF him.
A heavy step crunched the gravel
of the driveway. Sam dropped into
the shadow and waited. He saw the
chauffeur approach the car, carrying
an armful of motor robes and two
heavy suitcases. He heard the thud
as they were slid along the floor OF
the tonneau. The. there was a sud-
den snortirg, a whir and a sharp lit
tie explosion, as the car shot forward
and rolled down the drive toward the
house In the protection Of the shrub

string OF oaths.
Double crossed! So that was their
game. Well he'd show them. He
took handfuls Of sandwiches from the
basket and stuffed them into his
greasy trouser pockets, kicked the
basket outside the grounds and started
for the back of the house. Then, step
by step, he crept toward long open
window, from which a yellow band Of
light streamed out across the lawn.
Having reached 1t, he tried to stifle
his rapid breathing. Inside there was
a clink of china and tableware.
He saw Yama pick up a small cary
ing set and open a shallow drawer in
the buffet. But before the little Jap
had a chance to put the knife and
work away June called to him from the
hall
Instantaneously obedient Yama
dropped the implements on the table

able, we'll try 1t, although it's very
much against my will"
And we can go this EVENING"" June
asked eagerly.
YES" answered Mrs. Travis with
some reluctance.
The girl jumped up from her chair
and Rugged her rapturously.
"Oh, I'm so glad! Thank you so
much, mother dear. You'll see how
quickly / get well in the city. Come
on, Mary"
Upstairs, June was throwing arm
fuls of fluffy petticoats and dance
frocks from the depths of a clothes
closet, faster than Mary could pile
them up on the bed.
There was a subdued knock at the
door. Mary opened it. Yama stood
in the hall He had the two trunks
on a small hand truck.
Put them anywhere" June sang
out, and open them"
June's face clouded suddenly. She
came close to Mary and spoke in a
whisper.
We will have dinner early tonight
and we start for the city in the car
right after. We have to manage to
get that basket of food to Sam, Mary.
I'm afraid not to. Afraid"
oh, III arrange that all right"
soothed the old nurse. III have the
basket fixed long before. Then right
after we've finished dinner you and
can slip out on some pretext or other
and put it at the side of the garage"
At seven o'clock that evening a
bulky, crouching figure slid along in
the shadow of the hedge skirting the
Travis grounds. II made for a small
gate, looked cautiously to the left and
right, then darted through, toward the
rear of the garage.

through the open doorway, reflected
the light of low moon from it's high

The man sneaked around in the
shadows, saw and lodged back. fear
full lest there might be someone in it.
He peered around the corner of the
garage and grinned mockingly as he
saw Mary and June steal down the
steps of the little back porch and run
down the driveway in his direction.
Sam crept along the outside Of the
garage. keeping well within the
shadow. The fierce hunger that
gnawed within him almost overcame
his caution. AS the two women drew
near he darted toward them, snatched
the basket from Mary's arm, and
plunged an eager, dirty hand into 1t.
Go out of the grounds and eat ii,

come at any minute"
June tried to force him around the
garage.
Say, quit pushing mel" he grum-
bled Indignantly. There amt a soul
here. | don't see what you're get

Il tell you, someone may come any

Mary looked toward the house. A
shadow crossed lighted window. She
added her entreaties to June's.
