une, with ten hats or so to a season,
you order ten headrests painted after
your own image, and stand them up
with the hats atop, on shelf wherever
there is room enough to accommodate
them. Pupae, they call the hatrests'
which are really glorified dummies.
And even if you think the sight of
a row Of heads on your closet shelf
would remind you unpleasantly of
Bluebeard, you can't escape seeing
them, for they are becoming quite the
smart and necessary bit of window fit

wives of farmers for whom beekeeping
is becoming more important as a side

Women usually make a success OF
keeping bees, experts say, because
they give more diligent attention to
details. You can't turn swarm OF
bees loose on a farm or suburban es-
tate and expect them to return profits

Prehistoric Germs.

In these days, when disease MI
crobes are so much discussed, 1t is
hard to realize that disease germs
have been on this earth for millions
of years. The fact Of their long ex-
lstence isn't mere theory, for certain
minute forms discovered in lime
stone formation prove conclusively
that bacteria lived and flourished in
prehistoric times. These prehistoric
bacteria show many Of the character
istics common to our twentleth-cen-
tury germ.

of the canal in most places depends
on the amount of material desired for
the road bed. An even depth was car
ried with an idea of drainage.
How Work Is Done.
1--WE began cutting through the
swamp, dumping the mass of mari,
sand, etc, to one side. This dump is
leveled down to grade and surfaced
by hand with big heavy hoes and shov-
els. Through Williams Island jungle,
which was truly jungle in every
sense of the word, mass of trees of
all kinds and sizes; thousands or
switches, poles, brush, ferns, all woven
together with bamboo rattan and other
vines. Perhaps several hundred would
be chopped off at the ground before
the mass would fall so that 1t could
be chopped apart with brush axes.
When it is understood that the clear
ing had to be done at the contract
price of S44 an acre, it can readily be
seen that the contractor had to run
like the devil for his money. Some
stretches could not be cleared for
three times the price.
"The finished road bed is IS feet
wide. 1t is TX TO l slope with 6-ineh
crown and feet BERN. The contract
for the island part and part Of the
mainland was "a cents per cubic yard.
A contractor bidding at these prices
and under such conditions is skating
on thin ice"
In removing the big rock ledges and
rock strata wherever encountered eX-
plOsives are used. AS the major por-
ton Of the material to be taken out Is
soft, the big bucket on the dredge Is
able to do all of the eXcavating down
to bed rock. When the rock bed, as
thrown up by the dredge, has stood for
80 days and so thoroughly dried and
settled the contractors forces go over
1t with pick and shovel, leyeling down
a little above grade to allow for roll
ing. The subgrade will be rolled with
a roller weighing seven tons or more
and any depressions are brought to an
even surface. After the subgrade has
been completed a rock surface to the
depth of u inches is put on and rolled.
The rock is then scarified, graded and
rolled. Twenty-four-inch culverts are
to be placed about every 600 feet. In
Dade county at every mile station
2O-foot spur road, as turnout, will be
provided.

FREEDOM FOR GERMANY NEXT

Russia may yet light torch in Ger

hind the border line of her own coun-
try.
The successful revolution in Russia

pie. From Washington comes the in
formation of murmurings of a revolt
against autocracy, emboldened by the
revolution in Russia; reports of food
riots in Berlin, which are said to have
necessitated the withdrawal of troops
from the fighting lines; military sue
cesses by the entente on the western
front and in Asia Minor; the subma-
rine campaign operating far below the
efficiency predicted for it; all lead to
the belief among officials that possibly
before congress can assemble to meet
the situation the world may be con-
fronted with an entirely different set
of conditions.
What is the condition in Germany
no one knows. With a military CEN
sorship screening the history making
events transpiring within the German
empire and holding from the German
people the full meaning of events in
the world outside, the real condition
of affairs in that country is unknown.
! 1t is a fact that there is an agitation
for greater liberty, which has already
been promised by the existing govern
n1ent. Whether a revolution will be
necessary to liberalize Germany is
speculative, but that the people are
going to insist upon responsible gov
eminent is apparent.
Constitutional freedom for Germany
is the next move-it is certain to come
soon. '.." ."a

CLOTHES OF The FRENCH
SOLDIER INSURE WARMTH
His Dimensions Considerably IN
creased When He Wears
Everything Provided.

Although France is undergoing one
of the severest winters that mas occui-
red for years, yet her armies from 'ne
snov buried first line trenches to the
repose environments in the rear are sui
fering less from the cold than in either
Of the two preceding winters OF the
war. says Henry Wood in message
70 the Exchange Telegraph company
according to the. Pail Mall Gazette'
Warmth, both internally ana eAtef-
naIlv, is the keynote Of Frances care
Of her troops. A French soldier, cloth-
ed in all the garments when the gov
ernment provides and requires 10 oe
worn in winter, has his general dihen-
sions increased by several lnches III
nearly all directions.
The first article of clothing WHICH,
French soldier must now put on anu
which is absolutely obligatory IS LIE
wooden cholera belt. He next dons
: suit of wooden underwear ana Is IL
: ouired to have at all times WIN I'm IN
WOODEN underwear comes the shirt
then knitted sweater, followed, Of
course, by the uniform and overcoat
Then on top Of all this comes the
sheepskin jacket, which every soldier
now has, and wooden neckscarf, stee
helmet (the latter a sweat producer

blankets and waterproof slicker com
plete the clothing phase of keeping the
poilu warm.
Hot tea has now been added by the
French army to the means Of warming
up the soldiers internally. Tea drink
ing is more or less of an imported Gus
) tom in France. AS France, however
wished to be perfectly impartial in Dor
rowing customs from her allies, she
took the English tea and added to il
the Russian custom of a dash of rum
AS a rule the soldiers are not any toe
fond Of tea, but they argue that it is
we'll worth the while to drink just tc
get the flavor of rum that goes with it
All are unanimous, however, in declar
ing that the combination certainly does
keep them warm.

A BELGIAN NATHAN HALE.

What a Letter Carrier Told His Ger

How Belgian Nathan Hale met his
death gloriously is recounted by the
French newspapers. His name was
Meets, and he was secretary of group
OF letter carriers who refused to sign
the German formula of voluntary"
service and would not be coerced into
working for the Germans. He was
convicted with three other letter car
riers of belonging to an espionage or
ganiZatiOn and sentenced to be shot.
The trial took place in the chamber of
the Belgian senate at Brussels. and it
is certain, the French commenters say,
that more noble or touching address
was never uttered in that historic tenn
pie Of eloquence than that made by the
humble Meets to his judges after hear
ing his doom pronounced.

mony, nothing to reveal" he said, NOR
do l regret anything except that
could not do more for my country.

UNIVERSAL MILITARY SERVICE.

At the risk of being monotonous we
urge our readers to think seriously
about the necessity for universal mil
itary service.
We are for peace, we are for the
protection of American rights b,l:
above all we must be able to defend
our country from invasion. In this
age of scientific war-making soldiers
are made, not born, and the United
States must make it's citizens service
able for its defense.
That such a training will make this
country militaristic is absurd. We
want to fight no country, but if any Of
them insist on attacking US we must
be able to take care of ourselves.
