WHERE BITES ARE TREATED
Mission D~ispensaries Cure Many AfrI-
cans Who Sustain All Manner Of
Dangerous Injuries.

Africans go to the mission dispen-
saries to be cured of bites from all
kinds of animals, and a large num-
Der of them are cured. The common
est bites are from snakes, say a writer
In World Outlook. In Inhambane are
IS to 20 varieties Of poisonous snakes,
some very deadly, whose bites mean a
fight for life. Hyenas kill or carry
off hundreds of children each year,
and most of those who are rescued
have terrible scalp wounds, as the
hyena carries a child by the head.
Other biting pests OF the region are
lions, from whom few escape alive +;
scorpions. very poisonous and fond of
getting into beds; hypo flies, large
flies that In biting take huge pieces of
flesh and aus great swellings
sharks, of which the bay is full.
But the most common, bite and
seemingly the hardest to heal, Is the
human bit. The Africans when they
get angry use their teeth to good adj
vantage. There Is scarcely a morn
ing that several do not come to the
dispensary. One boy had his lower
lip bit off, and for him a new lip
was made.

CELESTIALS TO
THE FRONT

An official dispatch from Peking
states that the transportation of Chin
csc troops to France has begun. the
number being withheld for military
reasons. 1t will be a matter of world
wide interest to observe how the
Celestials withstand the horrors of
modern warfare. Military experts in
this great war agree that so far none
but the white race has evinced the
stamina to endure the sufferings and
hellishness OF war as waged today.
The French colonials from North AT
RIGA, with a reputation for blood
thirstiness, have not proved particu-
larly reliable at the front in this war,
and other tasks have been assigned
them. France has already more than
100. 900 Chinese employed on military
works behind the lines. If Chinese
troops crumple up before the attacks
of the Huns they can still perform
great service as laborers. 1t is CORY
enough for all. There is glory enough
for all.

THE PLANT OF
A HUNGRY MAN

The food conservation ought to be a
boon to the restaurant keepers in
Reno. Notwithstanding the fact that
they have been cutting down food on
meat, wheat and b~y-products. they
have not thus far made any reduction
in the price. Since the last order has
come 1t is just about all ms can do
to get even half enough to eat. Some
of the restaurants provided scant
enough fare before and now that they
have the authority of the Government
to back them up, they are cutting the
rations almost in two.
1t appears that the instructions of
the food commissioner are beingsear-
ried out with a vengeance. For in
stance, the late order of two ounces
of bread has been construed by some
restaurant keepers to mean two very
thin slices of bread to each diner.
There are some people whose main
diet is bread, butter, milk and vege-
tables. The reduction in meat being
served does not matter much to a
vegetarian, but when the vegetables
are scarce on the average table and
the bread reduced to nil, If the aver
e diner-out does not arrange to
have his meals cooked at home or
some place where he can get some
thing to eat, it will be a surprise to
one who has been watching condi-
tons.
Dieting may be all right for some
people, but when it is made a con-
tinuous performance, backed by the
strong arm of the law, the restaurant
proprietors of the city ought to grow
fat, in pocket book at least, while their
customers will become attenuated and
probably will commence a hunger
strike. If they do, they should not be
found fault with. We eat to live is
the way most people look at it and If
you can't eat, you can't live. But
what's the use of grumbling? Help
win the war by going hungry without
any real necessity for so doing is a
doubtful expedient Is it treason to
question the wisdom of an order made
by every Tom, Dick and Harry at the
head or under orders from a superior
officer who is in absolute Ignorance
as to local conditions?
Is it not going too far to say a
man whose diet is composed largely
of bread and butter, not from neces-
sity but from choice, must be satisfied
with two ounces of bread or eat some
thing else which experience has
taught him does not agree with him =?
Is it a necessity of war that he should
go hungry or else jeopardize his di-
gestive organs by eating food that is
not suitable to his physical needs? II
we are wrong we stand ready to be
corrected. If we are right, We want
the other fellow to make the correc-
tion.-lExchange.
