LoNDoN's WOMAN POLICE.

Around the corner from Scotland
Yard, London's famous police head
quarters, are the offices of the wom-
au police service, says the New
York World. They wear a uniform
that is as much like that of regu-
lar bobby as skirts will permit. And
the policewomen address their femi-
nine officers as "Sir~ For they sim
ply can't assume brisk, military air
and say MADAME" according to the
head of the force.
Although without official stand
ing, the woman police force is look
ing forward to the day when its
members can patrol beat and push
citizens around in the name of the
law. At present the force is COM
posed of volunteers, and they have
done some very excellent work since
the war began. In fact, the force
had its inception at the time the con-
flict started.

LIKE FATHER, LIKE DAUGHTER
Lady Mackworth Is Regarded as Lord
Rhondda's Right Hand Assistant
In Wales Management.

One of the most remarkable wom-
en- of the day is the daughter of re-
markable man, for Lady Mackworth,
director of national service for
Wales, says London Answers, is the
daughter of the food controller, the
great Welsh coal operator, Lord
Rhondda, one of the outstanding fig
ures of Mr.. Lloyd-George's business
government"
'Iike father, like daughter" is
true in this case, for Lady Mack
worth is a director of more than a
score of big businesses, and actually
chairman of several. She certainly
proves that women are not devoid of
business acumen, as some would
argue, and that they are capable of
doing big things in the business
world.
With her, business, like charity,
begins at home, and it was in con-
nection with her fathers great bust
ness concerns that she first learned
the ropes and got to know her way
about the intricate channels of busi-
ress life.

WHAT OUR TEASPOONS COST
Increase of Only About Twenty ceets
In Addition to the Actual Outlay
for Material.

"1n the specific case of the tea
spoon, all of this study, labor and
loving craftsmanship goes into the
converting of a single ounce of silver
which costs today in the American
market about so cents per ounce"
notes Art World Magazine, in dis
cussing the art Of the silversmith.
"This same ounce of silver is ulti-
mately delivered to our critical and
exacting public at the rate, in the
practical, finished product, of only
100 cents per ounce-an increase Of
20 cents for the designing, the crafts
manship, the shipping, the selling
and final delivery.
at has been fairly estimated that
if but one teaspoon were made and
sold, irrespective of the value of the
artistic endeavor that goes into the
production, that which really sells
for ST, or $1.25, would cost-val-
ued in pure material and mechanical
workmanship-close to $1,000. A
dozen teaspoons honestly valued at
S1,000-and sold for ST each! If
this fact were more generally known
it would doubtless add much to the
appreciation of our common table
flatware.
"Only because so many of our
American children are born with a
silver spoon in their mouths, die
with one not very far away, and use
one all the time in intervening life,
is it at all possible to produce and
sell this intrinsically valuable article
at price which is astonishingly SC
slightly above the cost of the raw
material"

TRENCH-DIGGING WITH PLOWS
Machinery Used by Both British and
German Armies Instead of the
Spade of the Soldier.

Whenever and wherever it has
been possible to do so, gigantic
trench-digging machines have been
used for entertainments instead of
the spade of the soldier, writes a cor
respondent. Many hundreds of
"trench-plows," as they are called,
were used by the Germans in the
early days of the war, and that gave
rise to the common belief that the
Germans were the first to use them
But so long ago as the Boer war Brit
ish army authorities experimental
with plows and found them so sue
cessful that they became part of the
equipment of the army.
The smaller plows cut trench 20
inches wide and 20 inches deep, turn
ing the earth over so as to form a
parapet. The larger ones will cut
trenches from three to four feet
deep, doing the work of so soldiers,
and in half the time. These plows
have proved extremely useful in
digging trenches in front of towns
and other prepared positions in the
path of the enemy.

COLOR VERY CURIOUS THING
at Distance Than Are Broken
Lines of Brighter Hues.

1t has been doubted whether
troops can best be concealed from
the enemy by clothing them in a
neutral color, like khaki or gray, in
spite of the fact that war offices have
adopted it. Color is a very curious
thing, and a mass of dull tints is far
more visible at a distance than
broken lines of bright are.
The lion, it is true, affects a
Khaki shade because of his very Pc
culiar surroundings, but nothing
could apparently be much more vivid
than the coats of the tiger and the
leopards, yet no creatures are more
invisible. Not very long ago some
curious experiments with artillery
shells, painted in stripes of bright
red, green and yellow, we're made at
Aldershot, and these at few hun
dred yards distance were found
most strangely difficult to detect. We
might take hint from the animal
world, which with certain special ex-
ceptions depending on peculiar hab-
its, is almost universally colored dark
above and light below. There is
much more to be said than might be
supposed for the suggestion that SOL
ciers should be given caps distinctly
darker than the rest of their uni
form, and furnished with a white
band.

MAKING NAVIGATION SAFE.

The completeness with which the
army engineers are robbing the Mis-
sissippi Of its terrors is shown by the
complaint of 'Uncle" Memford, one
of Mark Twain's river friends:
'When there used to be a, 900
steamboats, and 10000 acres of coal
barges and RATS and trading scows,
there wasn't lantern from st. Paul
to New Orleans and the snags were
thicker than bristles on a hogs back
and now, when there's three dozen
steamboats, and navy barges and
RATS, the government has snatched
out all of the snags and lit up the
shores like Broadway and a boats
as safe as she would be in heaven"

cREToNNEs.

The word cretonne means cotton
and was first made in India. Eng
land has had to give up many of its
factories for government supplies,
and, shipping facilities being made
quate, the supply of English-made
cretonnes is limited. This has made
the American manufacturer go very
deeply into creating new designs, and
he has been wonderfully successful.
For the first time American buyers

ONE MILE OF BATTLE FRONT
Barbed Wire Used Amounts to Hun
dreds of Tons-MilIions of Sand
Bags Are Required.

Few who read of emile of front"
have any idea of the enormous labor
and material that go to its making,
writes trench correspondent. For
a mile of front among the swamps OF
Flanders, for example, with its first
and second lines of trenches, its COM
munications and breastworks, the
necessary barbed wire is 900 miles in
length-long enough to reach from
London to Perth and back-and
weighs 10 tons.
The sandbags required for its pro-
lection number 6,250,000. So many
are they that placed end to end they
would stretch across Europe from
North Cape in Norway to Cape Mat
apan, the southernmost point in
Greece; and their weight is more
than thousand tons.
To fill these millions of sandbags
and place them IN position would
keep 500 industrious men at work
for twelve months; for the average
man cannot fill and place more than
25 sandbags in one night.
In addition to these thousands of
miles of wire and sandbags, $4,000
six-foot standards are required; H.
900 small pickets, $4,000 running
feet of corrugated iron, more than
100000 feet of timber and vast
quantities of riveting material OF
various kinds.

This is like a page from the past

WANT CAVE NATIONAL PARK
Natural Wonder Of Kentucky Does Not
Draw Patronage 1t Deserves Under
Private Management.

Mammoth Cave should be made q
national park. Now is a good time
to take the necessary action. The
federal government should be able
to acquire the property, upon reason
able terms. The management of
the cave, asserts the Louisville Cour-
ier-J Journal, has been such as to sug-
gest that an adequate hotel will not
be built at once, if at all, but even if
it is the intention of the managers of
the estate to replace the hotel that
has been burned, the history of the
cave as private property is a his
tory of failure to induce the number
of visitors which the Importance and
interest of the natural wonder war
rant AS national park, improved
by good roads, provided with good
hotel, Mammoth Cave would be seen
by ten times as many persons as see
IL under present condltlons.
The area surrounding Mammoth
Cave is well forested, picturesque,
well supplied with streams and in
every way suitable as a national park.
Kentuckians should urge their rep
resentatives in congress to interest
themselves in securing a sufficient
appropriation to acquire the cave
and enough ground around it to
make reserve representative of an
exceptionally fine section scenically
considered and now almost as primi.
tive as it was when Mammoth Cave
was discovered.
