MANIPULATING a Blanket.

Learning how to manage a blanket
that is a little short at one end and
not quite long enough at the other,
with similar deficiencies in width, is
one of the first things the young sol
der should be taught. If he is not
taught it, he will probably have an ex-
perience like that of western recruit
who says that in his first week in camp
he lost a great deal of sleep at night.
When he lay on his back his stomach
was cold; when he turned over his
back was cold; when he pulled the
blanket up around his shoulders he got
cold feet, and when his feet were I'M

az allah Rookhu Centenary.

Is the war holding back any poem
comparable with 'Lallah Rookh," the
publication of which was delayed by
the Waterloo campaign, and took place
just century ago?
Perhaps few read the famous ORR
entail romance nowadays, but Moore's
reputation when he wrote it was such
that he was able to sell it when he
had scarce put pen to paper. Murray
offered 1000 guineas for it, but the
poets friends thought this too little,
and approached Longman, STIMULATING
that the price should be mot less than
the largest amount ever paid for a
poem" THAT" said Longman, was
the $4,000 paid for 'Rokeby,'" and on
that basis bargain was struck, the
publishers only stipulation being that
Moore's poem should be equal to
Scott's in length. Even so, Longman
had the best of the bargain. Seven
large editions were sold within year,
and a quarter of a century later Long
mans still regarded "Lallah Rookh" as

QUICK AID GIVEN WOUNDED
Rapid Treatment After Battle and
New Cleansing Methods Save
Lives of Many Soldiers.

Lieut.. Col. Gilbert Darling. @. B., q
famous English surgeon who is con-
sulting surgeon to the great base hos
pitfalls at Rouen, which accommodate
1900 patients, says that since the war
began immense strides have been made
in the surgery Of the battlefield. Two
improvements that may be noticed as
having taken place since the outbreak
of hostilities, writes correspondent of
the New York Times, are in connection
with the rapid treatment of the wound
ed after a big battle and the cleansing
of wounds.
Five or ten miles behind the fighting
sufficient casualty clearing stations
each holding about 1000 men-have
been organized to deal with all the
casualties that may reasonably be ex-
pected, so that once a man is picked up
by the stretcher bearers he receives
adequate treatment within very short
time. Here also is a special hospital.
perhaps Of 30 beds, for abdominal
cases, which are the most urgent.
In the old days such wounds, because
of the delay before they could be treat
ed and cleaned, were generally consid-
cred to be fatal; but under the new
conditions, by which a man so hit is
placed in an ambulance and sent off
Immediately, if necessary, without
waiting for other wounded to be placed
in with him, the dangerous delay Is
overcome, and the wound kept aseptic
and more amenable to treatment.
