subtle feeling which seized hold upon
me this morning, in the twilight Of

had fallen back with time into the cat

Snails Very Nutritious.

"All snails are edible and nutritious"
says Canon Hershey in book on Brit
ish land and fresh water molluscs. He
goes on to say that even the common
or garden snail, though insipid, is as
nourishing as calf's foot jelly.
There is a large white shelled snail
called Helix pomatia that is commonly
eaten by connoisseurs In the south of
England, while all over France, Italy
and Spain several species are used as
food. In France are many small farms
which yield a good profit to their own
ers. In the French and Italian quar-
tiers of New York snails may be bought
either alive or cooked, and at most of
the French restaurants they are served,
"escargots farcis' being the most usual
form of dish.
Snails are easy to raise in large guam
titles. They need lime for making their
shells, but they do not have to be fed,
as they can find their own food, which
is exclusively the leaves of many
plants. They are most delicious when
properly prepared and cooked and, as
Canon Hershey says, as nourishing as
Calls foot jelly.

DUTIES OF OUR SOLDIERS
Strenuous Training and Discipline at
the Army Posts Teach Men Love
of Country.

A soldiers day is from the first note
| of reveille to the last note of retreat, a
| writer in the National Magazine OBJ
serves. In the gray light of daybreak
the bpgle calls him from sleep. From
that moment until retreat sounds at
sunset the day is one of strict routine
and discipline.
A rough outline of routine day at
Fort Myer is: Rise, roll call, break
fast, groom horses, fall in line for drill,
which lasts several hours or until time
for the MONDAY dinner. For the after
noon there are various designated du-
ties for officers and men, which may
include attendance at lectures, or dem
onstration work, board meetings, court
martial, training for extra drills, at
tendance at military funerals and
other services, either obligatory or vol
untary. At sunset again comes roll
call, followed by one Of the most i'm
pressive ceremonies Of the day.
The troops assemble, facing the col
ors; the band plays the "Star Spangled
Banner" as the colOrs are slowly low
cred, every man standing at attention
till they reach the ground. The sunset
gun booms across the field; the bugle
sounds retreat, and the garrison work
day is over.
The strenuous routine and spirit of
patriotism that pervades post life
teaches reverence for the flag as moth
ing else can do. To the man on the
outside the flag means much, but to
the trained man of the army it is his
colors! He will live for it or die for
it as needs be-and he will do it I'M
questioningly!
And SO it is "They bend the bow and
make ready the arrows within the
