house where a dozen men were wait
ing for them. One of the men said to
Ivan:
you are suspected of trying to make
a case against Peter Alexief to send
him to Siberia that you may marry
his betrothed. You are hereby notified
that If anything happens to Peter your
life will be forfeited"
II deny the Charge replied Ivan. ~
have no need to get rid Of Peter. The
girl prefers me to him."
1t was plain to all that quite likely
If Anna were called upon to choose be-
tween the two she would not dare to
choose Peter for fear of Ivan.
II am ready to fight with my rival
for the girl l love and who, I believe,
loves me. This proves that 1 am not
planning to take any undetermined adj
vantage of him."
Now, it was suspected that Ivan,
who had come from q country where
weapons are In common use, whould
make short work of Peter, who had
been born and grown up a simple
farmer. The spokesman of the tribu-
nal before whom Ivan was arraigned
consulted with the others and then
turned to the prisoner.
"Your proposition to fight your rival
for the possession of the girl is accept
ed. Since you are the challenger he
will have the choice of weapons"
Peter was sent for and closeted with
the leader of the citizens who were en-
deavoring to save him from his rival.
They proposed TO Peter that he should
fight Ivan, choosing weapons which
would give him an advantage over his
enemy. Peter could think of no weap-
on that he could WELD even indiffer-
emily, whereupon one was suggested
to him. He gave his consent at once,
and it was arranged that the duel
should come off at dawn.
The thermometer at sunrise stood at
80 degrees below zero. Peter, who
was used 70 cold weather, walked out
to the yard In the rea of the house
where the fray was to take place in
shirt and trousers. Ivan, who had been
used to a hot climate. had on his warm
est clothing. One of those present
handed each of the disputants the noz
zle of a hose. Ivan stood aghast. He
saw at once that he must fight with
cold water.
But it was too late to recede. A faint
hope came to him that his warm
clothing would protect him. He took
the nozzle offered him, the signal wa
given, and the two men poured a
stream at each other which was as
cold as it could be without freezing.
Peter did not seem in the least trou-
bled by his cold bath, but his enemy
collapsed in five minutes. He dropped
his weapon and ran for the house.
AS soon as he had put on dry cloth
ing and poured a hot drink into his
stomach he was told to leave the place
at once If he wished to save himself
from the displeasure of the citizens.
A month later the revolution broke
forth.

How to Care For Foods In the

Points About the Nicely Of Sanitary
Compartments and the Least Care
You Can Give the Matter Without
Breeding Germs During Hot Weather
First remove all food from the food
compartment and with strong, hot
s~oapsuds, In which there is a generous
handful of salsoda, notwithstanding
It's effect upon the hands, wash the
compartment In every corner. Rinse
out with hot water and thd6~ scald
thoroughly with water from a boiling
teakettle.
Wipe dry with a perfectly clean
towel and wash and scald the doors
and the lodges and shelves, which have
been removed. Set the shelves In a
current of air and leave the door of
the compartment open SO that it may
cool. Then wrap the ice In a paper Ice
blanket and set In the food compart-
ment and treat the Ice compartment
In the same manner. When all the wa
ter has run down the drain remove
the drainpipe and scald 1t again and
again with boiling soda and water.
Noxtous gases form In the drainpipe.
and these literally poison any food
with which they come in contact.
Cool the drainpipe and replace and
when the ice compartment has cooled
set back the ice and close the doors.
being very careful always to latch
them, else a large proportion of the
efficiency Of the refrigerator is lost.

Never leave the doors of the refrig-

necessary.
The effort of keeping a new refrig-
orator clean Is a real pleasure, but
where an old ice chest Is concerned
the work should be reduced by giving
the entire box a coating of paint or
two If need be. Aluminium paint does
excellent service for the inside and
stops up cracks and holes. This paint

there are old wooden racks and shelves

MARRIAGE BY PROXY
 URGED BY BRITISH

LONDON, Nov. 4.-Narriage by proxy between women in Australia and Australian soldiers al the front is 2 possibility ot the near future.
 The proposal opens up interesting questions | is learned that if the Australian government tavors such step The authorities in this country, in all probality. wiII make arrangements for the performance Of such marriages both in this country and al inc front.
 Proxies Sometimes Problem.
 T should recommend, however" said one Of these authorities, that no proxy should be employed-that is, that there should b. no presentation ot the bride Dy another woman. That procedure might lead 70 complications for instance. the proxy might call herself married woman, or claim to believe that the ceremony was valid and that she vas the rightful bride.

MARINES LEARN TO USE MACHINE GUNS
 AT NIGHT TIME

The United States marines in train-

 Secretary of the Navy Daniels and Maj. Gen. Barnett commander of the marine corps, inspected the men at Quantico.
 They certainly are fine looking well trained aggregation of fighting men, said Mir. Daniels. They are prepared to give an excellent account of themselves wherever they may be placed.
 "At the time of the Villa raid some of our machine guns got damned, tenn porarily destroying their efficiency. The action occurred at night, and the troops could not fix the guns in the dark
 With a view 10 guarding against ouNI c COIll!HStNCs "ueIe our LltH may have to use machine guns at night, We are training them to meet such an emergency I saw one blind fold man take damned gun and fix it in two minutes They can fire them or fix them at night as well as by daylight.
