a hermit who has set up his private
shrine by the waySide calls himself
the incarnation of Fudosama, the god

his abode in a little coop near the

Day and night one can see the flare
of fire on the paper window and a low
voice can be heard, says the East and

visitor knocked at the dismal-lOoking

looked to be about fifty-five and in his
brawny and reflective features he
showed magnetic smile.
1t seems he began his pious life by
scorching, his body with a lighted
candle to save the life of his sick
child. He tasted u days and prac-
ticed water meditation. The child re-
covered. His faith grew stronger. For
80 years past he has touched no rice

IRON POSTS SUPPORT WIRE
German Idea That Makes Their
Trenches Only Little Way From
Eeing lmpregnabIe.

In the Atlantic Monthly Mr.. Edward
prOvement the Germans have made in
their barbed-wire defenses. The
wires are usually fastened to wooden
posts. of course, but the Germans have
found better support for them. He
writes:
After we had taken the German
trench, our men set to work to remodel
it, shifting the parapet to the other
side, building little outpost trenches
and setting barbed wire. The latter
job was done in a wonderfully short
time, thanks to German thorOughness.
For the wooden stakes to which the
Wire is tied they had substituted soft
non rods. three-quarterS of an inch
thick, twisted five times in the shape
OF great cOrkScreW. This screw twist
ed into the ground exactly like Il cork
puller into cork. The straight part
of the rod being twisted upon itself
down and Up again every ten inches,
formed six or seven small loops in
height of about five feet. Into these
eyes the barbed wire was laid and
solidly secured with short lengths of
tying wire.
First cutting the tying wire, we lift
ed the barbed wire out of the eyes,
showed small stick through one, and,
turning the rod with the leverage of
the stick, unscrewed it out of the
ground, and then, reversing the proc
ess, screwed it in again. The advan-
tage of this rod is obvious. When
shell falls in the midst Of this wire
protection, the rods are bent and twist
ed, but unless broken off short they
always support the wire, and even
after a severe bOmbardment present
serious obstacle to the aSsaulters. In
such case wooden posts are blown to
| Sniithereens by the Shells and when
broken off they let the wire fall fiat
to the ground"
