CAMOUFLAGE AT THE FRONT
"BIuff" Is Best American Synonym for
Term That Has Come Into Com
mon Use During War.

When snipers crawl into No Mans
Land with grass in their caps and
when raiding parties go out at night
with faces and hands blackened to
make them as nearly invisible as may
be their officers call it camoufage.
The American khaki, the color of
earth and dust, is an example of the
same elastic term so are the German
field gray and the French horizon
blue.
But the greatest and perhaps the
least known use Of camouhage is to
hide troops advancing in an attack
in daylight, says correspondent at
the front. This is done by expelling
great clouds of smoke OF vapor from
the trenches before the infantry go
over the top. Generally the men
wait until the cloud has settled over
the enemy's trenches, confusing them
and preventing their firing accurate
ly at the attackers. Sometimes the
attacking troops leave the trenches
with the cloud and advance in its
protection.
The varieties of camouhage are in
finite. Probably the most ancient
example is the wooden horse of Troy.
ANY little trick that makes the
enemy see what does not exist, or
prevents his seeing what does exist,
anything that makes him do some
thing he ought not to do is camou-
fage. It's best American synonym is
"bluff." 1t will be interesting to see
what new varieties of it poker play
ing Americans will invent.

BEST RESULTS FROM FURNACE
Larger Fire Pot Burns Lot Of Coal
Slowly, While Smaller One Con-
sumes Little Fuel Rapidly.

The editorF of coal magazine in
the Americana Magazine tells how to
use your coal. He says:
"a house furnace works best when
lot of coal is burning slowly in it.
''To illustratel: l have a seven
room house. In it is a furnace with
a fire pot that Isl but 10 inches across
and about IL inches deep. 1t should
be "a or 26 inches across, and IS to
20 inches deep. Because that fur
mace is too small | have to shovel
coal four to six times day. Twice
day is enough. To have installed
the larger furnace when the house
was built would have cost but $35
more. 1t costs me $1O0 year more
than necessary to run the small one.
That is the difference between burn,
ing a little coal fast and burning a
lot of it slowly.
''In my furnace the hot water is
carried away from my boiler by inch
and-a-half pipes. They should have
been two and half inches. Far less
effort is required to force water
through big pipe than a little
one. When small pipes are used an
unnecessary amount of the power in
the coal is used to force the water
through small pipes. That is, the
heat is used up in the basement in
pumping water through the pipes in
stead of being used in the living
rooms to give heat"

ART IN OPERATING MACHINES
Alexander Bakshy Contends One Piece
of Mechanism Requires as Much
Skill as Other.

The contention that automatic
mechanism can never attain the ar
tistic requires sounder reasons than
those which are usually put forward,
Alexander Bakshy maintains in his
book, "The Path of the Modern Rus
sian State and Other Essays" He
says:
at is obvious that the whole argu-
ment stands or falls by the defni-
ton of mechanism
'This, however, is so indetermi-
nate that we see similar kinds of ac-
ton, in one case styled mechanical,
and in the other case highly indi-
vidual. Who will doubt, for instance,
that the action of an organ played at
a concert is individual and that of a
locomotive engine mechanical? II
pass over the controversial question
of the piano-player.) And yet it
cannot be disputed that the second
requires as much skill and personal
control as the first. Let it be noted
the point of the argument is not
whether their work is art or not, but
whether it is mechanical or nonme-
chanical. ] maintain that there is
no real distinction between the one
and the other, and that both can be
made to serve artistic ends if prop
erly used"

BRAVE MEN WORTH WHILE
Face Perils of War Without Whlm-
per, Smile When They Suffer, Says
V. A. D. Nurse.

''While there is none of the ro-
nance that the magazine writer's and
story spinners have woven around
our work, yet life is not half so drab
as it was in the days of my proba-
tionship in the old hospital" writes
g nurse, who before going overseas
served for two years in one of the big
Canadian city hospitals.
Sister R, who has charge Of
the next ward, told us a touching
story that has all the elements of
tragedy and romance in it. She says
that young soldier in her ward suf-
fered torture from a gaping wound
in his side and yet never whimpered.
He was always CHEEKY. One day the
sister said to him, DO you ever have
good cry all to yourself when you
are alone?' 'Eh, no. he said,
'what'd be the use? You must keep
smiling And then his face sudden
ly altered as he said:
"'Oh, but 1 did cry once. I'll tell
you when. I got letter from my
old dad telling me to come home as
soon as could, as there was an old
man who could still do a days work
and who would never let me want for
anything as long as 1 lived. 1 cried
them
"These are the little things that
happen now and then and set you
linking. When I go off duty 1 am
going to see that boy. He is worth

WHY LIBERTY BELL CRACKED
Metal Lost Its Vitality by Triple Melt
ing-Big Crack Promises to
Become Larger.

Metals, just like people, are sub
ject to the wearing effects of time.
And they also have diseases that de-
stroy their vitality. A combination of
both is responsible for the great
crack in the famous Liberty bell,
which recently has shown tendency
to spread, says the Chicago Journal.
The bell was made in England by
one Thomas A. Lester, and shipped
to Philadelphia in 1852. When test
ed with hammer it cracked at the
first stroke. The metal was recast
and 10 per cent. of copper added.
This addition did not have good eff
fects, seeming to spoil the BELLS tone.
So it was remedied a second time
and tin put in with the copper to re-
store the sound.
Although details are somewhat
hazy, it is certain that facilities in
the colonies for handling such a
quality of metal were not very good.
The bell weighs about 1900 pounds,
and it is estimated that 20 to rs Of
the largest crueibles then in America
were required for the purpose.
At all events the bell was finally
cast a third time and accepted. But
it did not cool evenly, and was imme-
diately subjected to shrinkage
strains. These strains had about the
same effect as if piece of cloth
were gripped in a persons two
hands and down the middle. This
pressure ultimately caused the big
crack which is such a familiar char
acteristic Of the bell, and which now
promises to become even larger.

"SYNTHETIc MILK"

A member Of an English society Of
medical officers of health claims to
have discovered, after a lengthy
period of careful experiment, salts
factory substitute for cows milk. He
has produced a powder called "syn-
thetic milk improver." Mixed with
water and boiled, it is added to cows
milk in equal proportions, and the
result is claimed to be rich liquid
scarcely distinguishable from new
milk. The cost of the synthetic ar
ticle is about one penny per pint.

Witness Decided He "Didn't Care Any

When Lawyer sprang Trap.

When Henry L. Doherty, the New
York banker, lived in Columbus, O.,
he attended trial in one of the
small villages nearby. The case con-
cerned the theft of a horse and an
important witness was a long-legged
farmer with an Adams apple that
was nothing if not dexterous.
The prisoners lawyer asked him
what kind of a night it was when the
theft was committed.
''It was so gosAdinged black you
couldn't see your hand before YOU"
There were a few other questions
and then: "What was the color of
this horse?"
at was a bay"
"That is strange. You say you
couldn't see your hand before you.
How could you tell the color of the
horse?"
There was no answer.
