HUNS TOLD "LOOK OUT"

Deserter Says They Are Rated as

Tackle.

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN
FRANCE, June 22.--The American
soldiers now are regarded by their
German antagonists as bad boys"
for whom the German soldiers are
cautioned to "look out" according to
a young German deserter. who sur
rendered in the American lines on the
Marne last night.
This willing prisoner added that
conditions in the German lines con-
stantly were growing worse. He had
deserted because he was war weary
and underfed and he declared that
many Of his fellows also would de-
sert if they had the chance.
Marne Front Comparatively Quiet.
There have been lively machine
gun and rife fire actions and inter-
mittent artillery fire in the northern
section of the Belleau wood. where
the Americans gradually are smoking
out the remnants of the German ma
chine gun nests. Otherwise the
Marne front has been quiet.
The 2sth German Division has been
relieved by the S7th. The newcomers
are said to be only a second-rate di-
vision. whereas the 2Sth was con-
sidered by the Germans as one of
their best.

Outside Aid Imperative.

An alternative to an armed inter

an economic Intervention. To pre-

AGRICULTURAL ANT OF TEXAS
Creatures Are Regular Farmers and
Their Homes Are Marvels of
Skill and Strength.

Texas has many varieties of the ant
family. Out on the "Llano Estacado,"
or Staked Plain, they are so numerous
that their hills look like the billows
of rolling sea.
One of the most powerful and for
midable insects in the Southwest is the
agricultural ant of Texas, observes a
naturalist These busy creatures are
regular farmers, and their homes are
marvels of architectural skill and
strength.
Think of q house from u to 10 feet
high, built by little ant, and which
is so strong and well supported that
cattle and buffaloes can walk over it
and yet not crush in this wonderful
dome.
1t is said that if a horse, in pro-
portion to his size, could leap as far
as flea, that in one jump he would
go clear around the world. Nov, if
man constructed a house according
to the same proportions of an ants
domicile, it would be more than mile
high.
These agricultural ants, next to q
| bee, are the most industrious crea'
lures on earth. They SOW, reap and
garner just like farmers, and during
the warm season lay by sufficient store
| for winters use.

OLD LANDMARK is PRESERVED
Historic General Schuyler Mansion at
Albany, N. Y, Associated With
Revolutionary Times.

By the dedication of the General
Schuyler mansion at Albany, N. Y,
another interesting landmark of revo-
lutionary days was permanently pre-
served from the devastating hand of
modern improvement, notes a CORE
spondent. The house is 155 years old,
having been built in 1862. Its recent
dedication by Governor Whitman,
marked the one hundred and fortieth
anniversary of the surrender of Bur-
goyne at Saratoga. General Schuyler
took an active part in the campaign
against the invading British army from
the North, and, at Saratoga, he suf-
fered a serious loss in the burning of
the British of his country home and
mills. Notwithstanding this, he acted
the part of the chivalrous conqueror a
few days later, when he entertained
General Burgoyne and his staff, in
Guiding the Hessian general, Baron
Riedesel, and his wife, at his Albany
home, when, as prisoners of war, they
stopped there on the way to Boston.
With the single exception of the ia
nous Washington headquarters at
Newburg. purchased by the state in
1S49, the Schuyler mansion is more
closely associated with revolutionary
times than any other of the historic
memorials purchased from time to time
! by the state for preservation.

To Induce Sleep.

When trying to induce sleep it is

AWAY all serious thoughts and try to
get the mind into a pleasant, elevated
state. Some people make habit Of
reading before retiring, but too often
one resds on until eyes and head ache.
As a result the following morning the
ewes are bloodshot and bulging from
the overStrain and the individual has
lost the necessary amount of rest be-
cause of this enforced strain. 1t is
most important that the ventilation of
the sleeping apartment be attended to !;
that there is clear, fresh air circulat-
ing. Windows should be raised from
the bottom and lowered from the top
also. so that the air may circulate free
ly. The question of whether it is
healthy to sleep with pillow or with
out one has been debated many times,
but happy medium is recommended
| as the most comfortable one.
