Cathedral square on the summit of the
Kremlin, and in Archangelskiy (Cathe-
dral of the Archangel MichaeD, are the
tombs of many of the emperors, down
to Peter the Great. In the upper story
of the treasury repose the crowns Of
the early czars, several thrones, war
trophies and miscellaneous curiosities.
In the arsenal is great collection of
weapons and arms taken in conflict.
The Kremlin was the second capital
of the empire after the removal Of the
government to Petrograd. Within it's
walls is the great palace completed in
1S49 and here, too, are the most Won
derful churches and cathedrals of the
country. Up to the dethronement of
Nicholas the Kremlin was the eccles-
iastical center of Russia.
The acropolis is full of memories of
Ivan the Terrible, whom Tolstoy called
the "great beast" and in the network
of underground passages which under
lies ID is supposed to be buried the
library Of that scholarly, but brutal,
ruler.
In 1905 the citadel was the center Of
revolutionary disturbances, and here
in February Of that year the Grand
Duke Sergius was assassinated. And
now the historic place, the nucleus Of
! the city of Moscow, and the seat Of
Russian autocracy, again figures in
Slavic turmoil.

adobe architecture is distinctly part
of the environment, and more genuine
ly artistic than anything of the sort
we have produced in the United States.
The narrow unpaved streets, the mud
walls, the unexpected plazas with
their statues, are all adapted to the
life that is lived in them, and have
the beauty that comes from usefulness
and 4 serene innocence of the desire
to copy something else. But in Juarez
the streets need cleaning, the walls
need plastering and the general i'm
preston is one of unkemptneSS and
carelessnesS.
1t could easily be improved, for
there are many beautiful things in
Juarez. There IS church that was
old when the Alleghenies bounded the
American colonies. There is a great
plaza that could be transformed into
noble park. But Juarez is rather proud
Of her bad reputation. She prefers to
swagger a little and talk about the
bull ring, the race track and the Black
Cat saloon. There was q time when
the proceeds of this latter institution
are said to have paid the costs of keep
ing the armies Of Francisco villa In

HISTORIC OLD SUN TAVERN
One of Boston's Landmarks, Built In
1890, for Many Years Used as
Fish Market.

One Of the early taverns of Boston
was the Sun tavern which stood but q
few feet from the waters edge and
was built about 1890. For some years
it was kept by Huguenot from Ro-
chelle named Cogneau. He made 1t
one of the most popular of taverns and
it was particularly popular with the
young men of Boston and surrounding
country, partly for the reason that
mine host COgneau had several very
attractive and lively daughters who
added q great deal to the charms of
the hostelry. Their father had the
privilege of seeing two of them mar
ried in the tavern, one of them becom-
ing the wife of Col. William Palfrey,
the famous Revolutionary patriot. He
became the grandfather of the noted
writer, John G. Palfrey.
Another daughter of this genial host
of the Sun tavern married q successful
printer named Fleet. During the siege
of Boston the British seized the house
and they changed its name to the
Kings Arms. But when the Red Coats
had been chased out of Boston the sign
of the Kings Arms quickly disap-
peared and the old sign of the Sun
Tavern took its place and the tavern
took on it's olden time popularity. 1t
has for many years been used as fish
market.

Provisions for the Pensions
of Soldiers or Dependents

Section 112 of the national defense
act of June 8, 1916, provides: when
any officer or enlisted man Of the Ma
fional Guard drafted into the service
of United States in time of war
IS disabled by reason of wounds or
disability received or incurred while
in the active service of the United
States in time Of war, he shall be en-
titled to all the benefits Of the pension
laws existing at the time Of his serv-
ice, and in case such officer or enlisted
man dies in the active service of the
United States in time Of war or in re-
turning to his place of residence after
being mustered out of such service, or
at any other time in consequence of
wounds or disabilities received in such
active service, his widow and children,
if any, shall be entitled to all the BEN
efits of such pension laws"

OraCOry SCaQQpOlnC, DuC II you MADE
test of the same values by feeding
these foods to human beings you would
find the values varied greatly because
of the variations of the human or or
ganic machinery which handled them.
Starch, for instance, in the cases of
some individuals, passes through the
digestive system without the body as
similating it and obtaining the addition
of its heat units. In the cases of other
individuals, the same thing would hap
pen with beefsteak.
For this reason we must remember,
when advising foodstuff for commu-
nifty, that what is one mans meat is
another mans poison. Thus it be-
hooves those who have the power to
regulate foodstuffs for a community to
be liberal enough in drawing up their
lists to meet the demands of the differ
ent capabilities of the digestive system
of the different individuals. In other
words one capable Of making ration
al selection must have a thorough
knowledge of the physiology of food
stuffs.
The people of the state of Pennsyl-
vania eat too much potato. The large
proportion of starch in the composition
of this vegetable produces a catarrhal
condition of the digestive tract, which
interferes with digestion and leaves the
patient insufficiently nourished, event
ually over a long series of years pro-
ducing starvation.
Meat, as q rule. is also Overeaten by
Pennsylvanians. Just now, however,
during the tension of the war, we need
more meat than usual.
1t should also be kept in mind that
meat will be more easily produced dur
ing the war than will vegetables, for
our trouble will be the want of male
help to carry out the continuous de-
mands occasioned by the cultivation of
vegetables during all stages from
planting to gathering, whereas cattle
can in great measure take care of
themselves, and what human help is
required need not be Of the highest de-
velopment, either physical or mental.

tempted to raise it to the dome, until
it was raised in 1882 to the marble ped
estal where it now stands. On Easter
eve all the great bells Of the Kremlin
toll out their message of the resur-
rection, and before the war travellers
journeyed from all over the world to
participate in the impressive Easter
ceremony there.
In the early part of the fourteenth
century Ivan DaDilovitch of Vladimir
took the title of grand prince of Mos
cow and moved the government from
Vladimir to Moscow. From that time
until the beginning of the eighteenth
century, when the administration was
transferred to st. Petersburg, the
| Kremlin remained the seat of gov
Crnment.
Time after time, together with the
rest of the city of Moscow, the krem-
lin has been burned, the last instance
being in 1912, when it was occupied by
NAPOLEON, and the inhabitants started
conflagrations throughout the city
which forced the Little Corporal to
commence his disastrous retreat from
Russia. Napoleon's headquarters were
in the Kremlin. and, while the flames
there were not so destructive as in the
remainder of the city, the fire attained
sufficient magnitude to compel the
French to evacuate.

CHAPTER XIV.
A IrYst bY Proxy.

Hanson and his boy had ridden di-
rectly to the clearing. 1t was already
dark when they arrived. Leaving the
boy there, Hanson rode to the edge of
the plain, leading the boys horse.
There he waited. It was nine o'clock
before he saw solitary figure gallop-
ing toward him from the direction of
the bungalow. A few moments later
Meriem drew in her mount beside him.
She was nervous AID flushed.
When she recognized Hanson she
drew back, startled.
"Mr. Baynes' horse fell on him and
sprained his ankle" Hanson FASTENED
to explain. HE couldn't very well
come, so he sent me to meet you and
bring you to camp"

IUAREZ is AN ADOBE CITY
Mexican Town Displays General un-
kemptness and Carelessness,
and Is Not Attractive.

Most Americans have gotten their
ideas of Mexico from the city OF
Juarez. which lies just across the in
ternational bridge from Ell Paso. This
Is unfortunate and some day Mexico
will realize it, writes Niksah.
Juarez is an adobe city, which is to
say that it is of one drab gray mono
tone. relieved here and there by white
washed porcheS and shutters painted a
pale sky-bIue, IN this it resembles
most other Mexican towns, but its
streets are narrowed and worse kept,
It's houses more in need of repair and
It's street cleaning department more
completely noneXistent, if such a
phrase is permissible, than in almost
any other Mexican city of its size.
And this is unfortunate, because so
MANY foreigners never see more Of
Mexico than JuareZ.
A moderately well administered
Mexican town, and there are many
such, is picturesque and pleasant. The

the possibilities Of increasing the to-
tai yield in this country cannot be
estimated. Potatoes are perishable
crop-cannot be exported to foreign.
countries, cannot be carried over from
one season to another. The potatoes
we grow in this country we must use
at home. The nature Of potato starch
is so nearly the same as wheat flour
that there is no difficulty in using this
combination in bread making.
Last season the farmers Of the
United States produced about 440, ,0OO,-
600 bushels. of potatoes. About 1OO,-
100000 bushels of this crop were small,
irregular, unmarketable potatoes.
1 earnestly believe that in no other
way can so great saving be made In
food In America with so little labor
and so small expense as the use of
small potatoes in the making of bread
in place of small grains which can be
shipped to our soldiers and the fighting
armies of the allies to help us win this
war.
Baked or boiled potatoes, mashed
or put through ricer, can be substituted
for one-third the wheat -four in any
standard recipe for making wheat
bread, biscuits, pancakes, waffies,
doughtnuts, pie crusts, etc. When po-
tatoes are used, little less liquid
may be required in the mixing.

Cold Won by Our Ships
Prosperity Of Merchant Marine
Due to the War

200 per cent profit on her first voyage
to China, in 1916.
The Oriental, an American clipper
built in New York in 1S49, to compete
with the English tea ships, earned
$4S,O00 in freight money on her first
cargo Of tea from Hong-Kong to Lon
don. Her cost was $4,000.
In the gold rush to California, in
1849 and 1850, many ships earned more
than their value in q single voyage.
Demand for space regulated the charge
for carrying freight, as it does now,
and the top price reached was $50 q
ton.
At this rate the ship Samuel Rus
sell earned $4,000 in freight money
on one voyage-more than her cost.
Some of the charters made in the
earlier period of the war for Ameri'
can vessels were on such a liberal
basis that the freight money for 9
single voyage to Archangel, for exam
pie, paid for the ship making the voy,
age, a condition to be looked for, say
the experts, in times Of abnormal de
mand for cargo space.

Saws StoneWaIl Jackson's
Strategy EcIipsed Others.

Which of all the American generals
is it that has given European strate-
gists most food for thought? Give a
guess, or two or three. And then you
will be wrong, according to Southern
congressman, who says 1t is not Wash
ington or Sherman or Grant or Robert
e. Lee, the Baltimore Stars Washing
ton correspondent writes.
"Stonewall Jackson is the man." this
congressman declared. 81 was sur
prised recently in talking to British
army officers, to learn that they have
made it point to study all Of jack
sons campaigns. 1t seems they re-
gard him as the cleverest Of all the
American generals and the most capa-
BILE in maneuvering against odds.
zone British officer told me that he
personally, with staff Of subordinates,
had gone on foot over all the ground
covered by General Jackson in his
great raids during the Civil war. He
said it was as fine study In tactics as
could be found anywhere"
