In view. 1t seems this lady has
already consulted several of our
energetic ladies about interesting
themselves in the erection here of
"A REST Room" for visitors and
has met with some response on
tfs part Of some, yet, at the

This is peculiarly an American prod
uct, the Biidden invention having been
utilized on a large scale by John W.
Gates at st. Louis
The descriptions from the front
show the effective use made Of this
simple invention, which the late Sena-
tor Ingalls, said was suggested by the
manner in which mich COWS avoided
bramble bushes. It was woven and
twisted into barrier that seemed i'm
pregnable until the. British developed
the use Of artillery in such amazing
fashion The study Of Notifications
has been followed from the beginning
of human history, and it is a singu-
lar fact that a simple fencing device,
designated for an untimbered country,
should surpass every other obstacle to
the progress Of q modern army.

STRENGTH AND PURPOSE OF A
PATROL.

In general, it is understood that
patroI-not combat patrOl-should be
sent out for one purpose only, and this
purpose must be clearly fixed in the
mind of the commander, so that he
may determine its proper strength, Sc
lect its leader and issue the proper in
structiOnS.
The strength of a patrol may vary
from two or three men to a company
if the company is a unit in q larger
command. Inasmuch as patrol work is
at all times a matter of discretion and
secrecy, it should be just strong enough
to accomplish the stipulated purpose
and no stronger. Not a superfuous
man is desired. Neither should a pa
troll start forth a man short of the re-
Quisite number to make the necessary
reconnaissance and insure that all i'm
portant information will reach the COM
mander.
1t may be necessary for patrols to
fight their way to the designated point
by driving Off enemy patrols. If there
is a prospect of such clashes, the pa
troll must be stronger than otherwise,
and invariably provision must be made
for the escape of one man to return
with essential information.
While it is in general the business
of a patrol to execute its purpose and,
if possible, avoid fighting, the purpose
may be of such a nature that it must
be executed whether this requires fight
ing or not. If such be the case, as has
just been said, the strength Of the pa
troll when sent out must be fixed pro-
portiOnately.
On the other hand, if the purpose is
to gain Information only, and of a gen.
eral nature, a small patrol is better
than a large one. For it moves less
conspicuously and conceals itself more
readily than a larger detachment. Two
men are often sufficient for such work
as observing from a point in plain view
of the command or accommodating be-
! tween Outguards.
Whether messages are to be sent
back, and how frequently, also deter
mines the strength Of the patrol, and it
must be large enough to furnish the
probable number OF messengers with
out reducing the patrol to less than
| two men. Two men are the minimum,
since provision must be made against
| the CHANCE IudL the JdIrOl 1odUSF might
| be disabled.
In sending back messages, if the in
formation is of exceptional importance,
the patrol leader will commit the same
message to two men who will return to
the main body by different routes. The
character of the information desired
when the patrol is dispatched in this
connection also will determine the
strength of the detachment and double
messengers, or q series of double mes
sengers, will be provided.
| In friendly territory, a weaker pa
troll may be used than for the CORE
| spending purpose in hostile territory,
since the patrol would have the as
sistance of friendly civilians, and
would be obliged to keep a lookout for
the enemy only. In hostile territory,
| on the other hand, a patrol must be
wary of hostile civilians as well as hos
tile forces, for hostile civilians will be
quick to apprise the enemy of the pres
ence of the patrol.
