APPEARED AT FUNERAL FEAST
Neighbors Got Something of a Shock
When Man Thought to Be Dead
Walked In on Them.

It is said that some of the subter-
ranean rivers that gush out of caverns
and pour into the River Pinega, in
Eastern Russia, flow fifty or sixty
miles beneath the accumulated half-de-
cayed leaf mold of thousand years.
At place called Sofia they tell in this
relation strange story.
1t appears that mujik, while cut.
ting timber in the wood had been swal-
lowed up in the tundra, as tie dense
mass Of vegetation is called. A party
was cutting virgin forest, when sud
denly this man slipped, cried out, and
sank from sight before the eyes of his
comrades.
Tt happened so quickly that there
was not time to save him. All gave
him up for dead. Prayers for his soul
were offered ia church. But he was
not dead, after all. What was the sur
prise of the villagers when he turned
up at his own funeral feast!
He had fallen through a hole in the
bog into the bed Of the underground
river, and had made his way in the
darkness along its course until he had
come to an opening and clambered out.

SATISFIED WITH SIMPLE LIFE
People Of the Latin Countries Take
Things Less Seriously Than We
Do in the North.

They take things less seriously down
in the Andes country. The Latin races
live their lives easily. There is lack
of realization of the seriousness and
meaning of life. an habitual inclination
to take things lightly. With no strug-
gle to beer their lot in life or fight
against untoward circumstances, they
calmly resign themselves 70 the fate Of
the unseen hand. In family life there
is much affectionate generosity and
contentment; life for them is simpler
and less intense than in Anglo
Saxon countries.
There the women care little for the
ballot. Are they backward? Does civ
ilization lag? Perhaps; but those who
travel there declare that the morning
star Of duty as wife and mother, even
in their limited conception of its mean
ing,s shines all the brighter in
comparison. In their own wide rami-
fled family circles their influence is
felt, while their outside interest CEN
tiers in the church.
The wealthy sonora is looked up to
by her poorer sisters and in the small
towns and haciendas where her nu-
merous family connections are the lead
ing people of the community, she ex-
tends q kindly and charitable beneh-
cence to them and to all who serte
them in any capacity. When these
women come of old Spanish stock they
are extremely exclusive and ancient
rules of etiquette guide their social re-
latlonshlps. Their daughters go to the
convent schools, receive limited edu-
cation and return home to continue the
same regime as has held sway since
the day when their forbears left Spain.

PENDING QUESTION is
SERVICE

There is a good deal of apparent
confusion in many minds between
universal training and universal sery-
ice. If we had universal training, we
would have universal service, of
course. But the question which has
been agitating Congress and over
which the President and his party
split was that of universal service in
a limited sense - for ~selective con-
scription is merely a recognition of
the principle of universal liability to
service, and not a direct application
of it. Universal training has not yet
been debated, though it is contained
in the measure now before Con-
gress. This means the accustoming
of every boy to the use of firearms, to
the military manual, to camp duty, 10
m%aneuyering, to all that goes to make
up the life of a soldier. This
that when another call comes for
men there will be no wasting of
months in training the men who will
be ready to respond under the call
of universal service which has been
made ready by universal training.

will make a tremendous saving. The
average time consumed by shipper and
consignee in loading and unloading a
freight car is little under two days each,
a total of four days per car trip. This
period can be reduced by one-third or
more. The men who can bring this about
are those who load and unload freight
cars. 1t is substantial patriotism at this
time not to tie up cars
