DEATH.


6Being the Theories of a Sentinel one
Night in No Mans Land)
(By IL. II. c. Hervey, U. S. RI
Beyond
What lies Beyond?
star-shell f1ared within the night,
And scars on high in CHASTITY light;
AS glow-worms in the dark below
million lights their shadows
And memories grow fond.
In files alike or phantom row
Creep shapeless Things that come
and 60
They pause before me but a while.
Then stink into the ghostly aisle
That stretches through the night.
Oh God those Things of Fright
That come from out the Dead
Death
What lies in Death7
A limpid moon into the sky
Climbs upward as a lumined fly;
Then stark in ghoulish silhouette
Two rhantoms in the even met,
w.
Then spoke aloud the faceless one;
II come from far beyond the Sun
From out the Vale Of Deep Despair;
And woe to him who travels there,'
The other said: IT come anon
From gilded lands behind the Dawn
There's nothing there beyond ="
".
Yet deep within my heart trow
That neither of them really know,
Or see beyond the final ridge.
For life is but a transient bridge
Aspanning some dread chasm wide;
For out OF all the horde who died
None come back from the Dead.
Beyond
What lies Beyond7
But now the dawn is stealing fast
The lamps which burn in heaven
vast
For they must shine as we-and go
Into what space we do not know.
o some are bright apd some are dim,
Each one a jewel OF His within,
Soft gltmmering and then must sink
waning light beyond the brink
OF that which lies Beyond.
VII.
One star is burning in the gray
Defying all the hosts OF day.
And coldly shedding tranquil light
1t glimmers in my eyes so broght
Then swift it's message to me filings
All then, my soul with rapture
sings;
I know that Death is Life.

Make FireIess Cooker.

A tightly built box, an old trunk, a
galvaniZed-iron ash can, candy
bucket, tin lard can, lard tub, and
a butter firkin are some of the con-
tainers that have been used successful
ly in the construction of firelesS cook
erS.
The inside container or nest which
holds the vessel of hot food may be
bucket Of agate, galvaniZed-irOn or
tin. This nest must be deep enough to
hold the radiator and the vessel OF
food but not large enough to leave
much space, as the air space will cool
the food. The inside container must
have a tight-ftting cover, and straight
sides are desirable.
The packing or insulation must be
some material which is a poor con-
ductor of heat. The following ma
teriaIs may be used and they should
be dry: Lint cotton, cotton-seed hulls,
wool, shredded newspaper, Spanish
moss, ground cork, hay, straw, and
excelsior.
Sheet asbestos one-eighth inch thick
and heavy cardboard have proved to
be the best lining for the outer con-
tainer and the wrapping for the nest
Heavy wrapping paper or several
sheets of newspaper may be used for
lining the outer cOntainer, but the nest
should be wrapped with asbestos or
heavy cardboard to prevent tie hot
stone scorching or burning the packing.
1t is well to have the outside con-
tainer large enough to permit four
inches of packing below and around
the sides of the nest. If a cooker is
being made with two nests, six inches
Of packing should be allowed between
the nests. Pack into the bottom of the
lined outer container four inches Of
the packing. Place the nest or inside
container wrapped with asbestos or
heavy cardboard and hold steady while
the packing is put around tightly
and firmly until it reaches the top Of
the nest.
Make a collar, as shown in illustra-
ton, of cardboard, sheet asbestos, or
wood to cover the exposed surface OF
the insulating material. This collar
should fit tightly.
Make cushion which when filled
with the packing will be at least four
inches thick and viii fill completely
the space between the top Of the nest
and the Lid of the outside container.
It should fit against the top tightly
enough to cause pressure when the lid
is closed.
The outside Of the fireless cooker
can be made more attractive by STAIN
ing or painting it. The lid may be
held in place by screen-door hooks and
eyes. The cooker may be placed on
casters so that it can be easily moved

FIRELESS COOKER
IS EASILY MADE
Used With Kerosene Stove as
Starter Kitchen Is Made
More HabitabIe.
time AND FUEL ARE SAVED
Device Is Warm Weather Comfort in
Any Househoid-Food May Be
Left Cooking Without Any
Worry as to the Results.

The fireless cooker is warm wealth
er comfort in most any kitchen. Used
in conjunction with a kerosene stove.
1t means not only economy in fuel but
1t makes the kitchen q more habit
able place when the warm days come.
Fireless cookers are now being made
and used in hundreds Of homes in
town and country. What is more pleas
ing to the housekeeper than to put
her dinner in the fireless cooker before
she goes to town or market and to find
1t ready for serving when she returns?
Advantages of Cooker.
The fireless cooker offers several
advantages. The first is economy of
time, as the housekeeper may leave
the food cooking without worrying
about the result while she is engaged
in other household duties or while she
is away from home. Some foods are
improved by long cooking at relatively
low temperature. The texture and
flavor of tougher cuts Of meats, old,
tough fowl and ham are improved by
slow cooking. Cereals and dried le-
gumes and dried fruits are more pala-
table and wholesome when cooked for
a long time. Soups and stews are
delicious when cooked in the cooker.
Baking, however, cannot be done very
conveniently and satisfactorily in the
ordinary homemade fireless cooker.
Economy of Fuel.
In some sections of the country
economy of fuel must be an important
consideration. The food for the cooker
may be started on wood or coal
range when the morning meal is being
prepared The food to be cooked is
first heated to boiling point on the
stove in the cooking vessel and then
this vessel, covered with tight lid,
Is Quickly placed in the cooker where
the cooking continues. The cooker is
so constructed that the heat does not
escape. For long cooking it is neces-
sary to place in the cooker under the
cooking vessel hot radiator A soap
stone is the best radiator and can be
purchased at most hardware stores at
so cents. A stove lid, brick, or disk
made of concrete, heated and placed in
the cooker, may serve as the radiator.

that the shortage of common lab

mounts to 100000 men
Construction work ON several
government plants is being sus-
pended because of the lack of
labor. He says further: The con-
dition is a shameful one for the
American people to face, It must

slackers cannot ease their consc-
fences by purchasing Liberty
