Lest We Eoraetl

A correspondent writes: During
some eanteen work / recently came
in touch with an escaped prisoner OF
war, who had spent one year in Ger
man captivity, who related some of
his experiences. He had made no
fewer than six attempts to escape, and
the first five unsuccessful efforts were
punished In a most barbarie fashion.
He had had to undergo a reduction in
rations to two ounces Of bread and two
ounces of meat per day, then solitary
confinement in a dark cell for a fort
night. with only two ounces of bread
per day. The third attempt to escape
called forth the horrible repr'sal of be-
ing nailed to a plank of wood by the
fleshy web between the thumb and
forefinger. where large scars stiH re-

fellow received three bayonet wounds
In the stomach, and the punishment for
the dfth effort to escape was, he said.

that great missionary hospital of which
my brother is chief surgeon and super
intendent. He had three Chinese men
and ten Chinese women nurses, trained
also as Bible students, and can accom-
modate about $50 patients. They have
every heinous disease and affliction
ceivable-leprosy, typhus, Asiatic
cholera, smallpox, tuberculosis, dengue
fever, opium smokers poison, and
plague. The first sight that struck my
eyes was a woman who had just come
in with her throat cut wide open and
bleeding to death. The bleeding was
quickly stopped, and the Bible women
going to work at once, found that she
had suffered from guilty conscience
and cut her throat to let the evil spir-
its out of her body.

Care Of Kitchen Eauipment.

American women as a class have
not practiced economy to any extent
in the care of household equipment.
the states relations service Of the
department of agriculture believes.
There generally has been sufficient
money to buy a new article when It
was needed, or when there was a wish
to buy, and the market has been well
supplied with new devices to tempt
the housewife. Now it is impossible
to purchase some of the simplest artl-
cles because they are not being manu-
featured. The housekeeper is sud.
denly confronted with the unusual
value of little things and the present
is the opportunity to acquire habits Of
thrift.
AreYou Guilty of These MisdeueanorsH
The want of thought in the care
and use of equipment is often the
cause of it's short life. Some of the
apparently trlfling mistakes which
cause utensils and tools to wear out
before they should are the following:
Contents of saucepans and kettles
boiled until dry and the metal over
heated.
Handles, screws and fastenings OF
knives, forks. egg beaters, etc, loOs-
ened from having been left in hot
water.
Metal utensils put away wet, caus-
ing them to rust.
Covers put away wet with steam as
they are taken off the saucepan
Brooms and brushes used continu-
ally on one side and worn TO point.
Rrooms allowed to stand on the
floor until their weight bends or
breaks the straw.
Glasses broken because the bottom
instead of the side is put into bot
water.
China dulled by washing with too
strong soapsuds.
Liquids spilled on rugs or polisned
surfaces because the container was
too full.
Contents of the saucepan boiled
over on the stove or in the oven De-
cause allowance was not made for the
expansion of liquids by heat.
Burners of gas and oil stoves clog
ged and useless by burned food.
Rugs torn by having heeh held Dy
the edge while shaking in cleaning
Glazing of porcelain and enameieu
sinks, tubs and wash bowls scratched
and broken by cleaning with coarse
cleaning materials.
Finish of furniture marred by piacS
ing hot dishes, medicine bottles anu
by splitting liquids on it.
Furniture cracks and parts looseheu
because the oil bath and rub are not
applied regularly.
China broken In the refrigeratof os
placing heavier dishes on it.
Dish towels scorched and sfaineu
when used for oven cloths and to iilt
hot saucepans from the stove.
Vanished and oiled wood"'EA
spoiled by washing with soap
Springs in beds. couchSs and cn,''i'
and other pieces Of furniture broken
by allowing children to jump ana pay

Eve was first to hold up osr haI4d
Then you must pay the forfeit,

under a tree so that the light of the

She tripped off and selected her spot
with due care Then. as rapidly as
she could speak the lines. she recited
the old familiar verse that she had
known since childhood.

And as if to convince her that he
was more than moonshine. two hands
were laid gently on her shoulders, and
Eve was turned around to confront
the impromptu poet.
"Oh. Adam - she gasped, at is veal

arms.
Back to the cottage a group of
young folk still sat on the steps sing.

till Eve should return.
"Hello. everybody" called out Tom

who was most demurely looking
