Andrew Graham had the misfortune
to nearly lose his team one day last
week. He was drawing wood across
the ice when the horses broke through,
but the timely aid Of some neighbors
with plenty of ropes and pulleys they
were able to keep them from drown
ing and after hours of hard work to
get them on land.
Mrs. Robert Furbush entertained
her children and grandchildren last
Sunday In honor of her son Leonard,
who is home from Oregon. Leonard
will soon be q member Of the Nation
al army, and will go from his home
state instead of Oregon.
The home of Henry Owens burned
to the ground Monday night about
eleven o'clock. The cause is unknown
to the children who were alone in the
house and were all sleeping in the
chamber. Upon awakening they dis
covered the lower part of the house
entirely enveloped in flames. They
barely had time to get out in time to
save their lives, and were clad only
in their night clothing. The house
with the entire contents and also their
clothing was entirely destroyed. This
leaves the family in most pitiable
condition as Mr.. Owen has been in
very poor health for some time and
unable to work. He was gone on the
day of the fire for an XRay examir-
alton at a hospital in Kalamazoo.

Shoots the trouble
Before this high-school graduate of
unusual accomplishments obtained her
present position of indoor mechanic,
She proved herself as efficient as the
men in doing line work, climbing poles
and replacing wires as readily as any
of them, says Popular Mechanics, in
describing her attachments.
But for the war and the shortage of
men having mechanical experience, she
probably would not be filling a mans
place.
However, being fond Of mechanics
and having a knowledge of electricity,
She intends to remain at her post until
peace comes, and then get a college

Old-Time Barley Bread.

We find more entertainment than in
struction in an editorial of the Hart
ford Courant on the revised use Of
barley. 1t refers to its use in Bible
times and finds this verse in the Book
of Judges to give an idea of its quail
ity:
"And when Gideon was come, be-
hold there was man that told Il
dream unto his fellow, and said, Be
hold, l dreamed Il dream, and 10, a
cake of barley bread tumbled into the
host of INDIAN and came unto a tent
and smote it that it fell and over
turned it, that the tent lay along
The Courant seems to approve of
the use of barley flour, though admit
ting some difficulties in preparing it
for bread But it takes this Bible
verse us evidence that its density
would make it seryiceable as a pro-
jectile-Waterbury American.

ONLY Three Kinds Of Feet.

A recent meeting of foot doctors
brought forth the information that all
feet are divided into three classes
namely, inflared, outflared and straight
the first two classes being scientific
divisions for the common Affections
known as pigeon-tOes and bow-legs,
one doctor said; "Shocs are prOverb
tally made to fit the eye and the peck
etbook, but not the feet" The ordi.
nary classification of boots shoes and
slippers does not fit with the iniiared
outflarcd and straight classes of feet
stated the doctors, as was proved by
he fact that most manufacturers ride
IN automobiles. To remedy the situa.
ion it is proposed, says Popular Sci.
nee Magazine, that all shoes conform
Eith the three general classes of feet.

VALUABLE FIND IN ALASKA
University of Pennsylvania Museum
Enriched by Collection of Eth
biological Specimens.

The University of Pennsylvania mu-
scum has received and placed on eX-
hibition remarkably fine collection
Of chronological specimens secured by
Louis Shortridge, a full-blooded In
dian, who for three years has been
exploring in unknown southern Alaska
for the museGm at the cost of John
Wanamaker. He has sent many col
lpctionS, but the last is the finest group
Of the whole.
His latest trip was up into the noun
tains, where he secured vast amount
Of ceremonial material which was for
the most part made a century or two
ago. 1t is parted with now only be-
cause the Indians have become we'll
nigh extinct and those younger mem
bers of the tribes who remain have lit
tie interest in ancient ways because
they are taking on civilization.
There is a collection of poles or Sa-
cred standards used in ceremonial
dances, handsomely carved and deco
rated with the totem of the bearer.
There are some amazingly lurid masks,
which were used in the dances, and
some costumes which are richly deco
rated. Some are made Of buckskin,
but others are of Hudson's bay traders
cloth deliberately embroidered. Alto
gether Mr.. Shortridge has sent about
1000 specimens and these are often
unique and as a whole are unequaled.

RUSSIA'S RICH TIMBER LANDS
Systematic Expectation Would Have a
Great Effect on the Markets
of the World.

An article In a current magazine by
A. j. Sack presents statistics on Rus
sia's forest resources as a means of
paying the billions of dollars due to
home and foreign creditors.
The astonishing statement is made
by this writer that Russia, including
Siberia, has 1,125,000,00O acres of tim
Der which is CD per cent as much as
the whole world possessed. This re-
source is being set aside by Russian
economists as fund to pay the coun-
trys debts.
The effect ON Americas business
Sholid be duly considered, observes
Hardwood Record in discussing the ar
ticle. Except oak, it continues, which
is generally known in the market as
the japanese oak, it is not probable
that much Russian timber will reach
the United States; but it will compete
with American lumber in other mar
ketS, notably those of western Europe,
and perhaps those of eastern ASIA,
western South America and the Pacific
iSlands.
"To that extent" says Hardwood
Record, "our lumber business may be
hurt by the flood of forest products
from Russia. In normal times Ger
many received IS per cent of it's lum-
Der imports from Russia, and Eng
lands per cent of timber imports from
that source was nearly as large.
Lumber shipments from Russia will
come from the Baltic, from the Arctic
coast of Russia proper and Siberia,
and from the Pacific coast of the lat
ter country. The principal lumber
markets of the world can be reached
from those points,"

Chest Measurements.

Put tape measure round your chest
and note the measurement. Pun your
chest out by taking deep breath, and
note the number of inches that you in
crease. one inch of expansion would be
very feeble, two is rather poor; we all
ought TO put on three inches, and four
is good. 1t is right and proper that the
lungs should be well expanded at each
breath. The mir penetrntes more easily
into some parts of the lungs. The apex,
at the base of the neck, just behind the
collar bone, is rather n sluggish part OF
the Incoming air current. That is con
siderrd 20 be one of the reasons why
the apex is the commonest site for con
sumption All children should be taught
breathing exercises. The ribs are SOFT
in childhood and youth, ind can be
nodded into shape. When once growth
has stopped the ribs are In their posi-
tlon and shaped for life. Therefore.
take pains to cultivate good chest
that expands several inches.
