COAL-SAVING RULES
Observance, They Say, Will
Conserve Tons Of Anthra-
cite Here This Winter
KEEP COLD OUT
OF YOUR HOUSE

Here are ten suggestions which the
general committee OF anthracite oper-
ators saws will result In saving Of
thousands Of tons OF anthracite coal in
Delaware during the coming winter II
they are followed:
Firsi-Start the furnace and kitchen
range fires as late as possible. Forget
the first few cool fall days. Put up
with little discomfort and remember
that the boys "over there" daily face
the weather with smiling faces.
Second-Rsise window curtains dur
ing the day to admit sunlight for that
is free heat. Dispense with awnings,
ss they shut out the sun.
Third-Weatherstri all doors and
windows and put asbestos around all
furnaces. boilers and cellar pipes used
for heating purposes.
Fourth-Reduce the home tempera-
ture to 81 degrees. DO not wait until
the mercury shows "a degrees before
closing drafts. By this time that extra
amount OF coal WIN have been consum-
ed and wasted.
Fifth-Bedrooms where windows are
opened for the night or otherwise,
should be shut off from the heat. Use
blankets and feel better in the morning
Sixth-Wesr heavier clothing. This
materially sayes body heat.
Seventh-TfiSroughly clean SCOT from
pipes and boilers and do not mind doing
little work IN the cellar, seeing that
window psnes ere tight and weather
stripped like the other parts of the
house
Eighth-Burn oil. wood. coke and bl-
luminous when possible Use gas for
cooking and heating Gas lighting al
night aids IN heating the home, store
and building where used.
Ninth-Use heavy draperies on doors
and windows for interior home decora-
tlon. This aids in outstanding interior
heat supply
Tenth-Remember you are not fight
ing IN a trench exposed to- all kinds
Of weather. Your men are and have be-
come hardened by contact with the
back-to-nature idea. They are also
healthier and more robust

| INTENSE ITCHING
| OF Rash On Limbs, Cloth
ing Aggravated,

MY daughter was troubled with
rash on both limbs from her ankles to-
her hips. The flesh became infsmed
and very sore to the touch, and the
itching vas intense sothat she irritated
her limbs by scratching. Her limbs
were very much swollen, and her cloth
ing aggravated the breaking out. This
trouble lasted about two months.
"She then tried Cuticurs. They re-
iieved the itching and burning the first
night, and she used four cakes Of Soap
and two boxes OF Ointment when she
was healed" (Signej) Mrs. S. c. Platt,

A Home Recipe For
Removing Wrinkles

Who will blame themodern woman for
trying 10 look as young and attractive as
she reasonably can? Why should she be
placed at a disadvantage in numerous ways
by wearing wrinkles, II she can avoid
these hateful marks Of advancing age
Few women, however, know what TO do TO
efectually rid themselves Of wrinkles or
sagginess. Most Of the advertised prepara-
tions are unsatisfactory and very expen-
sive. But a very simple and harmless
home remedy, which any woman eau
make will work wonders where all the
patent preparations fail.
Buy an ounce Of powdered saxolite at
any drug store. Dissolve the whole ounce
In a half pint OF witch hazel aud use as a
wash lotion The results nrc practically
instantaneous. Marked improvement Is
noticed Immediately after the very first
trial. Wrinkles and sagging are corrected
and the face feels so refreshed aud SNUG
like.

Four Women and a Bear,

Discovering big black bear at the
mouth of cave while on fishing trip
with their husbands, Mrs. O. Hartman,
Mrs. Guy Henderson, Mrs. A. Bassett
and Mrs George Chadwick threw rocks
at the animal until it retired into the
cave, and the remaining three then
kept guard while the fourth summoned
the men.
The party was without gun, but
after several hours an ancient musket
was borrowed at ranch several miles
away. Meanwhile the women continued
on guard, and whenever the bear at
tempted to emerge from the cave they
drove him back with showers of stones.
Armed with the musket, Bassett
crawled to the mouth of the cave and
aiming at the bears right eye, fired
The musket burst without damage to
Bassett and the bullet struck the bear
in the left flank, infiicting wound
which caused death.
The bear is one of the largest of the
black variety ever killed in this region.

SIGNIFICANCE OF ARMY RANK
Explanation Concerning the Insignia
Of Various Officers That Is More
or Less Romantic.

Because gold is a more precious
metal than silver, not a few civilians
confess ignorance of the reason for
gold bars on a second lieutenant's
shoulder straps and silver bars, on
those of a first lieutenant. Through
out the rank of army insignias gold
appears to be subordinated. Moss
Officers Manual explains the sig
nificance:
'The second lieutenant stands on
the level ground, looking up to his
superiors at varying attitudes above
him. He begins to climb toward the
top, his first step being the lower bar
of the fence, which position is typified
by the one bar of the first lieutenant
Upon reaching the top of the fence the
officer wears two bars, which repre-
sent the bottom and top bars of the
fence, from which point he can now
as captain survey the field. From the
fence, the officer must climb to the
branches of the oak, the tree of might
and strength. It is long climb and
symbOliZes the marked difference that
exists between the company and the
field officer. The gold leaf on the
majors shoulder strap symbolizes this
position. The next step is to the tall
est tree of the forest, the straight, tow
ering, silver poplar, with no branches
for many feet from the ground AL
though this point of vantage is some
what higher than that Of the oak, it
is not materially so, and the duties
and responsibilities of the position are
about the same. The officer is now
among the silver leaves of the poplar,
which fact is typified by the silver
leaf of the lieutenant colonel. The
silver eagle of the colonel symbolizes
the bird that scars over the top Of
the towering poplar. The next step is
the greatest of all: To the stars up
in the armament, far, far above the
eagles flight, which position is typi-
fed by the star on the general Off
GERS shoulder strap"
This description of the significance
of our insignia of rank, is, of course
merely romantic explanation.

Where Turuenev Did Early Work.

The estate of the Russian novelist,
Ivan Turgenev, which is reported to
have been sacked by peasants, lies
in the low, marshy country of the gov
eminent state of Toula. Some of the
writer's early work was produced there
though toward the end of his life Tur-
genev spent the greater part of his
time in Baden-Baden or Paris and
scarcely visited Russia. The influence
of his home, with its beautiful, prosper
GUS estates and hard-driven peasantry,
was never quite forgotten by him, and
toward the muzhiks especially-the pa
rents, probably. of those who have
just wrecked his property-he had
always an active sympathy. The
neighboring capital town of Toula,
set in the midst of agricultural lands,
was constituted a gun factory by the
Gar Boris Godunov, and still devotes
itself to the making of army rifles.

Resurrection Of Old Roman Port.

Ostia, the harbor of ancient Rome,
is once more, by decision of the Italian
government. to become port, and
Rome therefore once more maritime
city. To the harbor at Ostia, when
Rome was mistress of the world, came
the corn from Sicily and Sardinia,
which. after Tibet silt and national in
dolence had let Ostia perish. was stored
at Portus, the rival harbor, which also
afterward fell into desuetude. 1t was
the seizure OF Rome's granary which
enabled Alaric to impose his will on
the Eternal city. Ostia began its exis-
tence in $40 r. c. and she seems about
to add another chapter to her history.

When last heard from, the division was
enjoying a well-earned rest, in part of
France unscarred by the Great War,-in
the Golden Hills,-famous for rich wines,
dotted with quaint villages, and inhabit-
ed by smiling French people who cannot
do enough for them. Shot to pieces on
the field of valor, as they rested and re-
cruited, it.may be that their thoughts at
times harked back to their early teachers
in the arts of war, the 163d French Regi-
ment, that in October, 1917, in the village
of Liffold lie Grande, was resting and re-
cruiting for the thirtieth time.
In all probability the rest period is now
over, and this Yankee Division of ours is
today maintaining it's glorious traditions
on some important part of the flaming
battle line that extends from the North
Sea to Lorraine.
