A Friend in Need.

One day, at an Irish seaport. ter
rible fight was taken place on the pier
between Newfoundland dog and q
mastiff, when suddenly both fell into
the sea below. The Newfoundland. of
course, did not mind this mishap and
at once swan to the shore without
any difficulty. AS soon as he landed.
he looked around and saw the mastifr.
who could not swim, being quickly
curried out to sea. The noble dog,
instead of rejoicing over his enemy's
misfortune, plunged into the water,
took the drowning creature by the col.
lar. and keeping his head above water
towed him safely to shore. After this
the dogs were known to be the best
of friends and never to quarrel again

CHAPTER X.
The Great Change.
Change

The rocks, the ridges and the val
leys were taking on warmer glow
The poplar buds were ready to burst.
The scent of balsam and of spruce
grew heavier In the air each day, and
all through the wilderness, In plain and
forest, there was the ripping murmur
of the spring floods finding their way
to Hudson's bay. In that great bay
there was the rumble and crash Of the
Ice fields laundering down In the early
breakup through the Roes Welcome
the doorway to the Arctic, and for that
reason there still came with the April
wind an occasional sharp breath of
winter.
Kazan had sheltered himself against
that wind. Not breath of air stirred
In the sunny spot the wolf-dog had
chosen for himself. He was more COM
Portable than he had been at any time
during the six months Of terrible win
ter-and as he slept he dreamed.
Gray Wolf, his wild mate, lay near
him, fiat on her belly. her forepaws
reaching out, her eyes and nostrils as
keen and alert as the smell of man
could make them. For there was that

Joans Homecoming the lure Of the cabin
and of the woman's hand held Kazan.
AS he had tolerated Pierre, so now he
tolerated the younger man who lived
with Joan and the baby. He knew
that the man was very dear to Joan,
and that the baby was very dear to
him, as 1T was to the girl. 1t was
not until the third day that Joan sue
ceeded in coaxing him into the cabin
and that was the day on which the
man returned with the dead and fro
zen body of Pierre. 1t was Joan's
husband who first found the name on
the collar he wore, and they began
calling him Kazan.
Half a mile away, at the summit of
a huge mass Of rock which the Indians
called the Sun rock, he and Gray
Wolf had found a home; and from
here they went down to their hunts
on the plain, and often the girls voice
reached up to them, calling, "Kazan
Kazanl Kazanl"
Through all the long winter Kazan
lowered thus between the lure of Joan
and the cabin-and Gray Wolf.
Then came spring-and the Great
Change.

Suggestions for School
Lunches to Stay Riddles
Craving Until Night Meal

Don't let the school lunch be merely
something which will fill the lunch box
in the morning and be only a sop TO
stay the kiddies' appetites from noon
until night. Make 1t a real contribu-
ton to the food which the children
require to meet the needs of their
growing bodies and active brains-to
satisfy their appetites and keep them
in health.
These are the suggestions of home
economics specialists of the United
States department of agriculture, now
that millions of the future citizens OF
the country are again eating their mid
day meals from box, basket, bag or
confectionery shop instead of from the
family table under watchful parental
eyes.
The preparation OF luncheons which
will fill the needs of the child's body,
does not mean the use of more expen-
sive foods or the expenditure of great
err effort, the specialists paint out. In
many cases both expense and work
will be lessened. What Is needed for
the preparation of more satisfactory
lunches is merely that parents and
big sisters" or whoever fills the lunch
box, shall inform themselves of certain
facts in regard to the choice and COM
bination of foods. The need in many
cases is for neither more nor less food,
but for the representation of needed
food groups. The necessary facts are
set out plainly In Farmers Bulletin
T12, "School Lunches"
The following suggestions are among
those made In the bulletin for we'll
balanced lunches to be carried to
school:
l. Sandwiches with sliced tender
meat for filling; baked apple. cookies
or a few Jumps of sugar.
2. Sliced meat loaf or bean loaf ;
bread and butter sandwiches, stewed
fruit, small frosted cake.
3. Crisp rolls, followed out and
filed with chopped meat or fish, moist
ened and seasoned. or mixed with
salad dressing, orange, apple, mixture
of sliced fruits or berries, cake.
4. Lettuce or celery sandwiches, cup
custard jelly sandwiches.
5. Cottage cheese and chopped green
pepper sandwiches or pot of
cream cheese with bread-and-but-
ter sandwiches, peanut sandwiches.
fruit, cake.
6. Hard-boiled eggs, crisp baking
powder biscuits, celery or radishes
brown sugar or maple sugar sand

Z. Bottle of milk. thin corn bread
and butter. dates, apples.
8. Raisins or nut bread with but

Time Needed to
Fatten Poultry

The question is often asked: How
long does 1t take to fatten poultry
properly
The time required to fatten chickens
and other poultry for prime market
finish depends largely upon what kinds
of feeds are given and the range of
the birds during the fattening period.
If the birds are allowed to run at
large and range freely the fattening
period is much longer, and in some
cases with wide range the birds will
never become In prime market condi-
ton, no matter how literally fed. The
reason for this is that the birds in
walking and roaming over wide areas
take too much exercise, and feed that
under other conditions would go to
form flesh and fat goes to furnish
muscular energy, which is lost so far
as fattening is concerned.
In the case of turkeys, which are
semiwild birds, limited range for the
birds is necessary, especially In early
and late fall, when insects, wild seeds,
green clover and grasses are still to be
secured. Turkeys will grow and take
on flesh as long as these wild feeds on
the open range can be secured freely.
However, as cold weather comes on 1t
is best to supply turkeys with corn and
other feeds they viii eat close to the
barn and poultry quarters, so that they
will roam as little as possible as the
marketing period approaches. They
will not bear confinement and forced
feeding like other kinds of poultry. In
very close confinement they will worry
off more flesh and fat than they will
put on, as a rule.
With chickens, ducks and geese 1t is
economical to confine them closely and
feed heavily a few days before mar
keting. The confined birds should
have all they will possibly eat Of mixed

Foreign municipalities
And Governments Add to
Revenue With Side Lines

There are foreign municipalities as
we'll as foreign governments that do
not think it beneath them to add to
their revenues by "a side line or two"
The city of Paris, for instance, in
creases its revenues by a few francs
each year in the cultivation of lit
tie state orchard In the Luxembourg
gardens, and the same municipality
also takes its share of the receipts of
the Elffel Tower.
A curious revenue accrues to the
city Of Palermo, which makes CONNER
cial use of its SHOWS from the noun
tains. The Sicllian snow is brought
down at night in baskets and shipped
to the neighboring towns. where 1t is
sold for refrigerating purposes.
The Greek government has a most
profitable side line in its monopoly in
playing cards, from which it derives q
handsome income.
The Russian government once un.
dertook, to its profit, a deal in junk
1t was just after the Crlmean war
when for months old iron, shot and
shell were picked up around Sebasto-
pol. A regular trade In this junk
sprang up, thousands of tons being
sold. Finally 1t struck the government
that the idea was such a good one
that it would take a hand itself. II
thereupon interviewed between buyers
and sellers, imposing tax of ter
cents per hundredweight. 1t was es
timated that the imperial government
profited in this way to the extent OF

HEROINE OF SERBIAN bATTLEF|ELDS
BY G. KAY SPENCER

One of the bitterest contests chron-
icled during the great war has for it's
setting that bleak region surrounding
Gornitchevo and Kaymakohalan, in the
Serbian campaigns to defend their lit
tie country from the Teuton octopus.
In the Serbian ranks were many
heroic women who dressed like the
men and fought as unselfishly. But
we are to tell about little woman
a Scot-who exiled herself from her
native hills of old Scotland to march
over hard frozen ground powdered
with wind-driven snow on the hills of
Serbia.
Her claim to fame would very prob
ably have never been differentiated
from that of many another woman
trudging In the Serbian ranks had
she not been cast by fate into a mill
tary hospital maintained by the Brit
lsh on that front.
In the early winter that saw the
beginning of the drives which pushed
the Bulgaro-Germans back to the
mountain known as Hill No. 1912, this
little Scotchwoman was cartea to the
base hospital with her whole right
side, from the shoulder to the knee, a
mass of torn flesh and shattered bone.
Miss Flora Sands-for that is the
name Of this intrepid Scotswoman-
began working in Serbia as Red
Cross nurse early in the war. Her
sympathy became so aroused by the
sufferings and heroism of the people
that, when the hospital units were
broken up during the great retreat of
October and November, 1915, she so
licited and obtained permission to en-
list as a private soldier in the rear
guard that protected the retreating
army. Before that army reached the
Adriatic she had won promotion. Be-
come Sergeant Sands, she stood high
In the regard of both officers and
men of the crack regiment to which
she still belongs. On the Macedonian
front she went through the whole OF
the arduous and successful campaign
that began on September II.
Bonners Ferry herald. [volume] (Bonners Ferry, Idaho) 1904-current, 1917-12-26

II was In the decisive assaults on
the highest crest of Hill No. 1912 that
Miss Sands active career was sud-
denly cut short. How this happened
let her relate in her own words:
1--WE had been crouching In our
shallow pits for hours, waiting i'm
patiently for the order to attack. At
seven o'clock in the morning the or
der came. 1t was showing and the
snow lay on the ground. l was out
of my pit in half a second, and run
Ming as fast as my legs would move.
l am always the first to leave cover
1t Is my duty as q non-commissioned
officer. But, unfortunately, / am not
so nimble as most of my men. So 1t
happens that Z am generally among
the last to reach an enemy trench.
Well. had nearly reached the brink
of the Bulgarian trench in which our
men were already at grips with the
defenders. / was one of small group
of aggards-perhaps half dozen
when well aimed grenade fell In our
midst. A couple of men besides my
self were in the radius of its explo-
sion and fell wounded, but / seem to
have got most of the scatter"
SO this Amazon tells her story.
Simple it is and self-denying. for a
number of her brother officers have
stories to tell of the engagement
which considerably elaborate upon her
terse recital.
In the military hospital of Camp No.
Al she was the only patient of her
sex. The camp had accommodation
for sixteen hundred sick or wounded
and there is a heavy percentage OF
women among the Serbian armies.
A few days after her admittance
into the hospital a royal aide de camp
came to her bedside and, on behalf OF
the prince regent of Serbia, pinned tc
her breast, with much ceremonial the
gold and silver cross of Kara George
a rare badge that is given only fol
conspicuous bravery on the field OF
battle.

Onions for CoIds

The efficiency of onions is well
known to the singers of Italy and
Spain, who eat them every day to i'm
prove the quality of their voices.
Onion plasters are prescribed to
break up hard colds. They are made
of fried onions placed between two
pieces of muslin. The plaster is kept
quite hot until the patient is snugly In
bed. Then 1t is placed on the chest to
stay over night. Onion strip is said by
some to be unequaled rs L cure for a
bad cold on the chest.

smell of man, as well as Of balsam
and spruce, in the warm spring air.
She gazed anxiously and sometimes
steadily, at Kazan as he slept. Her
own gray spine stiffened when she
saw the tawny hair along Kazan's
back bristle at some dream vision.
She whined softly as his upper lip
snarled back, showing his long, white
fangs. But, for the most part, Kazan
lay quiet, save for the muscular
twitchings of legs, shoulders and
muzzle, which always tell when a dog
is dreaming; and as he dreamed there
came to the door of the cabin out on
the plain a blue-eyed girl-woman, with
big brown braid over her shoulder,
who called through the cup of her
hands, "Kazan, Kazan, Kazanl"
The voice reached family to the top
Of the Sun rock, and Gray Wolf fat
tened her ears. Kazan stirred, and in
another instant he was awake and on
his feet. He leaped to an outcropping
ledge, shifting the air and looking far
out over the plain that lay below them.
Over the plain the woman's voice
came to them again, and Kazan ran to
the edge of the rock and whined. Gray
Wolf stepped softly to his side and
laid her muzzle OH his shoulder. She
had grown to know what the Voice
meant. Day and night she feared 1t,
more than she feared the scent or
sound of man.
Since she had given up the pack and
her old life for Kazan, the Voice had

1t would seem as though the general
public ought to be fully informed on
most of the horrors of war, judging by
the amount that is printed on this sub
ject. Nevertheless, there is apparent
ly one phase that is not generally APP
preciated. 1 refer to the danger from
communicable diseases acquired dur
ing the hardships of q soldiers life,
especially If he happens to be taken
prisoner and is thus exposed in con-
finement with hundreds of his mates.
These diseases are carried from place
to place wherever soldiers are trans
ported, and often, when soldiers are
invaded and sent home, they bring
these communicable diseases with
them to distribute among the civil
population.
Already we have felt the lack of
enough physicians to protect the health
of the people at home. and the health
officer is somewhat at loss to know
how to enforce his health measures.
The only solution of the problem is
for the individual to give time and
attention to taking care of himself.
He must put himself In a receptive at
titude toward the suggestions of the
sanitary officer, even though he may
think some of the suggestions so
trifiing as not to be worthy of serious
consideration. There is one thing sure,
and that is that he will consider 1t a
serious matter If the disease warned
against should happen to come his
way.
