BRITISH BATTLE
ON INDIA BORDER
English Forces Engage Six
Thousand Tribesmen and
Defeat Them.
THIS IS LONDON REPORT

London, Nov. ia battle has oc-
Cured on the frontier of India in
which a British force was engaged
with 5000 tribesmen, the war Office
announced today. The tribesmen were
defeated and Withdrew with loss Of
100 dead.
The engagement occurred near the
boundary between India and Afghani-
stan. The British took the offensive.
The force attacked was made up Of
Mohammedans.
The British employed airplanes,
which had never before been used in
military operations on the Indian
frontier. Only one person was killed
on the British side, the. statement
says.
Since the proclamation of holy
war by the sultan of Turkey there
have been various reports of uprisings
in India. 1t has been stated in Berlin
dispatches that unrest in India was
increasing and that revolts of consid.
cradle proportions have broken out.
These reports were denied by the
British government and so far as is
known there has been comparatively
little disorder except along the north
western frontier, where even in peace
times disturbances are not infrequent,
The rebels are members of war
like tribe which lives along the Kabul
river in northern India. They never
have been brought to acknowledge the
supremacy of any leaders but their
own, and have been accustomed to
break from the hills into the low
lands on raiding forays. In March
and in October of last year fighting
was reported near the Afghanstan
frontier, the British on each occasion
dispensing hostile forces numbering
several thousand men.

GUARDS FILIPlN0S' HEALTH
Uncle Sam Has Greatly Reduced the
Death Rate In the Islands Since
American Occupation.

Some of the most interesting investi.
gative work that has been carried on
by Uncle Sans public health service
has been that In the Philippine is
lands. The progress Of sanitation
there, the experts say, may best be
thought of by classifying 1t into two
periods: First, the period of elimina-
ton Of the graver epidemic diseases,
and, second, the period of constructive
sanitation.
The first period, or that Of the elm
ination of grave epidemic diseases, ex-
tended from the beginning of the
American occupation to and including
the year 1908. The second period, or
that of constructive sanitation, began
In 1906, when Investigations were be-
gun with view to improving the gen.
eral water supply Of the islands. Ar
tesian wells were decided upon, and
therefore the supply today, in large
measure. is through such wells.
In Pasig, with 14,752 inhabitants, a
commission was formed to look both
into the water supply and into the
health of the people. The mortality,
per thousand inhabitants, was, during
the year 1914 (the latest statistics
available) 1904 as compared with 82.4
In 1903. The high rate In 1908, how
ever, was due to the presence Of chol-
era, which did not exist In 1914. ELM
mating cholera, therefore, In order to
place the two rates upon the same
basis, the corrected rate for 1908 was
shown to be 88.2 per thousand per an
mum.
As a result Of the work of the COM
mission much sanitary legislation has
been enacted and the towns on the
islands are In much better sanitary
condition than before our occupation.

EFFICIENCY IN HOME
This Is New Study Taken Up by
Uncle Sam.
Government Experts Have ventured
Into Business Of Teaching sclen.
tlfc Housekeeping to Women.

Uncle Sam has turned his big pa
ternai hand to domestic science. Not
exactly that the spread of woman suf-
frage has driven him from other pur.
suits into the home, but, having been
successful In agriculture, in industry,
In commerce, and In most supplement
tary activities, our common relative
has looked to the home and found there
many opportunities for tuning up its
efficiency.
Much has been said and written
about the two standards of efficiency
business efficiency and home efficiency.
And the concensus Of opinion has been
that, could home efficiency be brought
to the level of that Of the Office, wom-
ans position would be bettered more
quickly than by any of the economic
and legal panaceas promulgated from
some quarters.
The government has become inter
ested In the situation and ventured
into the business Of teaching scientific
housekeeping to the women Of the
land. Beginning with the proper ar
rangement and equipment of the home,
the government has Investigated the
entire subject of food and its method
Of preparation, and taken the home
and covered 1t from the standpoint OF
health and comfort and designed its
construction with economy and con.
venience as the standard.
On account Of the difference In
homes, due to various incomes and
various sized households, no single
series of rules could be laid down.
What the government has done is to
offer general suggestions for raising
the efficiency Of the home and the
housewife.
One Of the most piquant suggestions
offered Is that the housewife consider
her home as factory for the produc-
tion Of family comfort; for creating
means Of eating, sleeping, resting and
enjoying social diversions. For this
purpose, tools must be provided; and
such implements should be chosen as
will make possible the housewives do
Ing her various tasks with the great
est celerity and minimum Of labor.
The combination Of beauty with util-
ity and practically is one of the first
essentials. In a home where the cul-
tural, moral and congenial effects on
those who occupy 1t must be consid-
cred, beauty often may be united with
utility. Fittings should include beauty,
necessity and convenience. For in
stance, in the selection of table linen,
furniture, upholstery and various 9TH
er articles, this combination can be
made effective.

Working Abandoned Holdings.

Many holdings In Brazil which have
been abandoned for nearly a century
are now being worked and made pro-

where there Is now settled colony of
foreign agriculturists, and that of the
Benedictine monks, worked by the
monks themselves, are among these.
