HISTORY AS SHE is WROTE
English Paper Says That General
Woods Chief Claim to Fame Was
His Capture of Geronimo.

1t Is sometimes necessary to use for
eign papers to learn interesting things
about our own people. An English
paper says that Gen. Leonard Wood
was once an infantry officer and that
he captured Geronimol The follow
ing is from London Tit-Bits:
The name of Gen. Leonard Wood
conveys little or nothing to the ma
jority of US. He is Americas fore
most fighting man, with a self-made
career as romantic as that of any Of
the great captains of industry.
Although he never graduated at a
military college, he mas worked his
way up from obscurity to eminence
With amazing rapidity.
Perhaps the most remarkable fact
about this remarkable man is that he
entered the army as doctor! Having
taken his medical degree at Harvard,
he entered the United States Medical
corps as surgeon.
1t was not long before his senior
officers began to take notice of Wood
He was transferred to the infantry,
and during the Southwestern Ameri-
can border campaign, with his gallant
band of 80 picked cavalrymen, Lieu.
tenant Wood for over two years swept
the rough and wild country of Ari
zona in the hopes of running to earth

dian chief, a feat he eventually ac
complished.

William Starbuck's new car was
standing in front Of Judge Warmers
house in the southern suburb when
Smith descended from the closed cab
which he had taken at the Hophra
House side entrance. The clock in
the courthouse tower was striking the
quarter of nine. The elevated mesa
upon which the suburb was built COM
manded broad view of the town and
the outlying ranch lands, and in the
distance beyond the river the Hillcrest
cottonwOods outlined themselves
against a background of miniature
butteS.
Smiths gaze took in the wide sunlit
prospect. He had paid and dismissed
his cabman, and the thought came to
him that in a few hours the wooded
buttes, the bare plains, the mighty
mountains, and the pictured city
spreading maplike at his feet would
probably exist for him only as mem

SHE HAD MAYNARD DAUGHTER
Neiqhbor Was Surprised When She
Found Cause of Severe Rebuke
Administered by Mother.

A lady living in large apartment
house relates the following:
81 had occasion one day to visit the
apartment of a neighbor. Such grave
and earnest tones of remonstrance
reached my ears, as I approached my
friends room, that hesitated about
intruding. 1 found her winsome young
daughter with her, and the mother had
evidently been rebuking her, for the
girls face was flushed, and there were
tears in her eyes.
'Come in" said my friend. ST have
finished what 1 was saying to Jenny,
and I hope she will remember my
wishes"
"Ah, these children = these chill
dren !" thought to myself.
81 have just been telling her." con-
tinued my friend, 'that she must not
wear her evening gloves when she goes
shopping in the morning. In the first
place, it is not genteel; and in the
second place, it is extravagant."
Her evening gloves! And yet, I as.
sure you, her tone and expression, and
the impression made on the child
would have befitted serious wrong
doing-one that had issues in time

Of one who had suffered the pangs i'm

Diamonds to Remain Hioh.

The high cost of diamonds keeps up.
If you have any hidden away among
your potatoes and onions hold them,
for you may not get any more. This is
the prophecy made at a convention Of
the New York State Retail jewelers.
association at New York, which pre-
diets that the high price of diamonds
will hold for q good many years after
the war.
Benjamin Rees, diamond importer,
in the role of prophet, said he had
been abroad on acknowledging ex-
cursions five times since the war be-
gan; that diamonds have advanced in
price so to 40 per cent in the past
year, and that the high prices will hold
because the 1900 cutters and polish
ers in Belgium are gone, the Kaffirs
who mined the rough diamonds are
making munitions and that England

An Expert on Animals.

William Snyder. head keeper at the
Central Park menagerie in New York,
is willing to answer any question re-
garding animals at any hour of the
day or night. That readiness frequent
ly gives him an insight into domestic
tragedies affecting the life or liberty
of birds, dogs, cats, monkeys and eves
turtles kept as pets in New York
homes. Mr.. Snyder was called to the
telephone recently and questioned by
an agitated woman who sought to
know the proper food for turtle Mr..
Snyder explained that it depended
upon the type of turtle, and upon be-
ing informed that it was a little one,
two inches in diameter, suggested that
it be fed one lettuce leaf week. "Oh,
pshaw," exclaimed the woman, "and
I've just sent the maid over to get it a
pound of chopped meat"

HAD WASTED THEIR LIVES
Good SaddIers' Spoiled to Make Law
yers, Opinion of Sir Douglas
Haig on Seeing Work.

The fact that Sir Douglas Haig at
tanned his ifty-sixth birthday recent
ly brings to mind a story told of him
a short while back.
Sir Douglas is a soldier first, last
and all the time, regarding all other
professions as of quite negligible i'm
portance, a trait in his character which
lends point to the anecdote.
He was, it appears, inspecting a
cavalry troop, and was particularly
struck with the neat way in which re-
pairs had been made in some of the
saddles.
"Very good work." he remarked to
the troop sergeant major. "Who did
itr
1.-TWO of my troopers, sir" was the
reply.
You're fortunate to have two such
expert saddlers in your troop" said
Haig.
"As matter of fact, sir" was the
reply, they're not saddlers, in civil
life being lawyers"
"Well," calculated Sir Douglas, "how
men who can do work like that could
have wasted their lives over law /
can't imagine!"

A good combination to can for WIN
ter which is especially recommended
for the child is Swiss chard, or spin
ach, few carrots, onions and a stalk
or two of celery all blanched and
packed into a can, then cooked under
water at the boiling point for two
hours. This mixture may be used as a
flavor for soup broth or with milk, aft
er pressing the pulp through a sieve
so that the vegetables are finely di-
vided. This soup mixture has high
mineral content and is recommended
by dieticianS as a good beginning to
encourage the liking for vegetables in
small people.
In all soup making, it should be re-
membered that vegetables are neces-
sary to keep the bodily health up to
the standard. They are rich in mineral
matters, vegetable acids, and growth
| determinants of which we are learning
more each day, without which the body
! processes are not carried on properly.
Since soups may be presented in such
variety of flavOrs, are so generally
relished, and make such palatable COM
binations, using buttered bread rs an
accompaniment, they are valuable ad-
ditions to the diet.
Mixed Vegetable Soup.-Take three
quarts of boiling water and add the
following vegetables: One quart of
shredded cabbage, one pint of sliced
potato, half pint each of diced car
rot, turnip, onion, two tomatoes, two

tablespoonfuls of chopped green pep.

Where conditions of manufacture

a specified sum is awarded as the

This recommendation will do away
with the tendency to increase costs to
