ireland Lives in Plenty.

Although only a three-hour boat trip
separates England and Ireland. there
Is as much difference as between day
and night in the two islands. as far as
food is concerned. says the New York
Sun.
Ireland is not rationed voluntarily
or otherwise, and there is plenty of
everything, with the exception of SUI
gar. In respect to food it is more
pleasantly situated than the United
States or England. because prices have
not advanced as they have In America,
and are no higher than in England,
where the ministry of food not only
rstions, but controls prices. Ireland
always has sent quantities of meat
and dairy products to England and
still is doing so.

AMAZING Nerve.

An elderly British army officer is a
tester of parachutes, and it is his al
most daily business to go up In obser-
walton balloons to a height of some
thousands Of feet and then to throw
himself out with parachute for q
lifeline Sometimes he falls nearly l.
600 feet before the parachute opens.
He may land in the oldest places, and
the other day he and his parachute
came down In the middle of busy
street, and he narrowly escaped being
run over by motor-omnibus. There
was also an occasion when he found
himself upon the roof of house with
nc visible means Of getting down
therefrom, and for some little time his
position was precarious.

Discipline.

sThe discipline in base hospitals fD
France precludes social relations be.
tween nurses and enlisted men. This
Is occasionally carried to extremes, as
evidenced by the following incident. A
certain nurse was found ringing the
doorbell of the officers quarters early
one morning. When asked what she
wanted, she replied that the villa in
which she and the other nurses were
CHARTERED was ON fire. After the fire
had been extinguished, she was asked
why she didn't give the alarm at once,
instead of running the long distance to
the officers quarters. Her reply was
