Horsemen Knew Their Business.

The value of having practical horse
men in charge of remount camps is
shown in provisions made for shelter
When it came to building the great
depotS required at each Of the camps
they ordered open sheds instead of
barnS--or for the severe northern eli
mate, sheds closed on one side. To
the city-bred humanitarian who saw
thousands of Uncle Sans horses and
mules standing out in the cold, this
seemed cruel. and complaint was en-
tered. But by practical test it was
shown that the horSemen We're right

division the thing he was most proud
of was the fact that our horses We're
kept in better condition with fewer

cause we give them oDen-air treat

TALE OF SUPREME DEVOTION
Simple Explanation of Reason Why
Romance of AbeIard and Heloise
Will Never Die.

Romance never dies, for lovers are
born each springtime aud the heart
OF the world is always young.
And SO it is that to the modern tilun-
der of the guns bombarding scissors
is set the tune of an old, old romance
that has spun like gold-and-scarlet
thread through eight changeful cen
turtles, spun and spun. and lost none
of its color. none of lis appeal. And
The. story winds about the town of
scissors and ends in a crumbiing old
tower dropping to It's last decay,
And the romance was the tragedy
OF Abelard and Heloise, lovers who
have. typified the passion of devotion
tG all the lovers of the universe. The
story itself was not uncommon-the
love of a teacher for his beautiful pu-
pill, her winning and her undoing. The
tale of Faust has the same harsh note
of betrayal. But it is the supreme de-
votion Of Abelard and Heloise that
make them types; that, and the setting
of the romance which ran through
Paris and ether towns, and drew to
close in the tower where Abelard
was a prisoner Of those prosecutors
who held his writings to be sediliouS.
His marriage to HeoiSe, his renunci-
alton of her, and the final taking, by
both of them, of the vows that sent her
tC nunnery and him to Il monastery,
all of this availcd him nothing. There
in the town of Scissors, lighted now
by the blaze Of bursting shells, he was
compelled to burn With his own hand
his book in which was set-forth the
'heresy" OF which he was accused.
What a contrast between the feeble
| light OF that burning manuscript and
the flare of the battle we are wag;ng
foi the liberties of the world
And yet the burning of that book
was Il m0mcntous event ut the Sois-
sons council of ecclesiaStics.
But Abelard had been great teach
er, and all the country had throbbcsl
and thrilled with the serial story of
his romance with the beautiful lie
loise. And so, in the later years tray
| aferS have turned aside from the beat
on tracks and sought the old tower on
| the outskirts of the French town for
Il glimpse of the prison where he Ian
guishcd. The steps were worn in
grooves by the thousands OF feet that
went as on pilgrimage to the shrine
| Of perfect love.
There today the guns roar and
the shells take their screaming
flight-there at Soissons-but under
the curtain of smoke and the hail OF
lead there spins on and on the gold
and-scarlet thread of the romance that
never dies.-Memphis Commercial APP

DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION

Nearly all of the schools of the State have
been closed during the month of October.
Quarantine also prevented the holding of any
meetings.
The commissioner has rendered decisions in
five appeals regarding transportation.
The main work of the Office has been con-
nected with determining the rebates TO be
paid 10 the various towns and in planning
work that will be of assistance to superin-
tendents and teachers in making up far
as possible the loss of the four weeks during
which schools have been closed
At each of the normal schools large gar
dens have been worked during the summer
with the result that each school has supply
of vegetables almost sufficient to carry them
through the year.

Keep your body in good condition,
that's the secret. '''
Watch the kidneys. The kidneys
and digestive organs are the main
causes. The kidneys filter and purify
the blood All the blood passes
through your Kidneys once every
three minutes. They strain or filter
out the impurities. That is their
work. Keep them clean and in prop
er working condition and you have
nothing to fear. Drive the poison
Gus wastes and deadly uric acid ac
cumulations from your system. Take

Hydraulic CARTRIDGES.

1t is often difficult and sometimes
dangerous to use ordinary explosives
for mining and eNcavating in confined
spaces Il fact that has led to the de-
velopment of the hydraulic mining
cartridge.
The cartridge consists of steel
cylinder containing numerous small
pistonS that move at right angles to
the axis of the cylinder and expand
when water is injected into them With
a hand pump After drilling Il deep
enough hole the workmen insert the
cylinder and then set to work ut the
hand pump.
The tiny pistens expand until their
free extremities bear against the mass
of rock with constantly increasing
force and the rock is gradually frac-
tured under tremendous pressure. The
operation it is said, is not only cheap
err than the ordinary blast but diSin-
tegrates ii larger area of rock.
