-iIsT USE OF GAS IN WAR
In Crude Form That Weapon Was
Employed Centuries Before the
Coming of Christ.

The earliest use of deleterious gases
In siege warfare is recorded in the his
tory of the Peloponnesian wars from
431 404 B. G. During this struggle
between the Athenians and Spartans
and their respective allies the cities of
Palatea and Delium were besieged.
Wood saturated with pitch and sui
phur was set on fire and burned under
the walls of these cities In order to
generate choking and poisonous fumes,
which would stupefy the defenders
and make the task of attacking forces
less difficult. Another form of the
same method of attack used about this
date was to fill caldron with molten
pitch, sulphur and burning charcoal,
and to blow the fumes with the aid of
a primitive form of bellows and air
blast over the defenders lines.
Greek-fire, about which much was |
heard in the wars of the middle ages, |
was liquid the composition of which |
is now UNKNOWN, that was spurted |
through the air, chiefly in sea fights,
In order to set fire TO the ships of the
enemy, and 1t was used by the Byzan.

Waterfowl Pond.

Many city or village boy scout who
makes an occasional trip into the coun
try and has an enjoyable experience
at some pond side, regrets that he lives
so far from that pond. 1t may not
have occurred to him that he can make
miniature pond in his back yard In
the city, says Edward F. Bigelow, In
Boys Life.
Sometime ago was talking with the
owner of an estate on which was a
lake exclusively for his graceful but
expensive waterfowls. In the course
of our conversation he said: "Many
persons come here processing admira-
ton for my lake or waterfowl. They
tell me that they love such things, hut
they are not sincere. What they are
admiring is the wealth that enables
me to have this extensive equipment.
But l began in a small way, and any
one who really loves waterfowl and
has little back yard can have at least
a mother duck and brood Of duck
lings."
He summed up his philosophic adj !
vice with this remark: "If you cam
not get lake with waterfowl, get a
tub and goose" I

INSECT POWDER GROWN HERE

Pretty dear for a bug-killer.
The stuff was mystery. Beyond
the fact that 1t was of q vegetable ma

AS a matter of fact, it came from
Transcaucasia, where its production
was very important industry. For
centuries il had been widely used in
Asiatic countries, and the source of
the material was a secret carefully
kept.
Eventually the secret was revealed
by an Armenian merchant, who, trav-

cred that the insect powder was SIM

Later on, attempts were made to in

that the persons from

Breaking cIas. Barriers.

If classes already mingle more free
~ than they could do forty years ago,
1t Is largely because the elements of
education are common to all, and the
door has thus been opened to the able
and ambitious to educate themselves.
But If the normal course were much Of
a muchness for all classes till the END
OF adolescence there would be an edu-
Gated community wherein certain gen.
eral standards would be as common a
possession as reading and writing arc
at the present time, and in such com
munity class distinction could only
take secondary place. General
education is, in fact, the most per
yasiye and the best of democratic
agencies, because it levels all up and
pulls nothing down. That Is Its con-
tribution to social democracy.-Man-

Onion Taken OF Pedestal

Another old-fashioned medical gu,
perstition has been exploded. The
odorous onion can never again be
used as a therapeutic agent In tu-
berculosis. Old timers who have
sworn by the virtues of this tear
producing product have humbugged
themselves, for the onion has been
investigated, classified, analysed
and everything else has been done
to 1t that the learned men of SCI
ence could think of, and In the end
1t was found to be only an onion
pleasing to the palates Of some,
however displeasing to the noses of
their friends, but absolutely and
without any medicinal
qualities or proprieties that make
1t an aid in the treatment of tuber-
culosis. The white plague victims
may as well use boiled potato peel
ings or beet tops for all the good
it will do them.

Writer Gives 1t as His Opinion That
They Are Actuated Solely by
Selfishness.

One of the most pronounced nuis-
ances with which seasoned travellers on
railroad trains have to contend is the
1open-window crank" This fellow
for he is usually male instead of a
female-persists in having his window
open, no matter whether other occu-
pants of the car dislike it or not; and
1t usually results in the other 'passen-
gers thereabout receiving liberal sup
ply Of dust and fine cinders, as well
as enough soft coal smoke to last them
the remainder of their lives. These
open-window cranks are almost always
occasional travellers. 1t is noticed by
those who have taken the pains to OBJ
serve that the regular trayeler-that
is, the man who rides every day in
summer-never opens the window be-
side the seat in which he is riding. 1t
does not mean any more comfort for
him to do so, as he long ago discov-
cred, but much discomfort instead.
AS soon as railroad car starts to
move there is more or less air stirring
and II the open-wIndow cranks would
only compose themselves a few mo-
merits they would be far more COM /!
Portable than they would to breathe
coal dust, smoke and clnders. But the
average occasional traveller will push
up his window as soon as he enters the
car.
1t makes no difference to him how
much the rest Of the car suffers-he is
the only one to be considered. 1t is a
practice that causes great discomfort /
to passengers who have the necessary
sense to know that everybody is better
on II the windows are closed on hot
days. And It is always noticed that
these open-window artists invariably
leave the window open when they de-
part The first, last and only thought !
II for themselves-no one else counts.

To the Stockholders Of the PAY

HIfE EQUITY EXCHANGE
Gentlemen: AS your manager
herewith submit to you my report ot
the business of the PAYETTE
EQUITY EXCHANGE for the year
1918.
The business has had a successful
yaar but would have made a much
better showing under normal condi-
tions. We were handicapped ser
lousy ON account of government
regulations of the sale OF wheat and
wheat products. During the latter
part OF 1917 we were selling about a
car of flour and feed permonth, but
government control of these COM
modities cut us off at the pockets
and greater part of the sales of
chicken feed went to the FIGURING
mills who could dispose Of their by
products as such.
Our gross sales for the year were
SS9,565.3O The cost of Merchandise
was S2,7S6.76 leaving gross profits
10 the amount of 6778.54. From this
amount is deducted the expense Of
doing business which is 5209.55, leav-
ing a net profit for the year of
l56S.99. These expenses ara cIassi-

heard of the event requested to have

that the permission of the duke and

low the garden TO become cemetery
for dogs.
1t has now been in existence many
years, and there are several hundred

STRANGE QUIET
ON BATTLEFIELD
Lights in Farm Houses Burn Now for
the First Time in
Four Years.

The vast battlefield in northern
France is queer land now. Over
the shell-toln villages and blasted
woods, the pitted fields and the ruin
OF all that once was, is a strange
quiet. The winter sky is lacking in
aeroplanes and great flocks of crows
have taken their place.
A few villagers have crept back to
see what remains of their homes and
soldiers, but they are fed and prob
ably the winter will have passed be-
fore reclamation and reconstruction
are undertaken on a large scale.
Need for Haste Is Gone.
Along the roads repaired and re-
hrldged for the allies advance into
German territory, long canton trains
move slowly and always southwark
They travel leisurely now, for the
need of hurry is gone. They bring
back the salvage of battlefields, all
the things that go to make war, aban-
doned or captured.
Truckload after truckload of rifles
and shells, water bottles and haver-
sacks, cartridges, machine guns, bay
onets and trench knives and pistols,
mess kits, overcoats, caps, an endless
catalogue of paraphernaha are
brought in. The battle zone is still
full of it all; in heaps and racks, wait
ing salvage.
Bringing Back German Materials.
Now and then come trains of aero
blame camions, burdened with dis
mantled flying machines of every
ype and every nation, engine and
usllage and running gear on the
truck and the great wings on its spe-
tally designed trailer. Some of them
re unframed, but many show bull
ct holes through the frail fabric,
n the ruins of crash. A fair pro-
portion of them bear the Maltese
ross that marks them German.
There are trains of captured enemy
rtillery, particularly of mortar bat
cries, driven and manned by French
len, and these are happy outfits.
'ften the guns are decorated with
vergreens, and always the French
oldiers laugh and wave a greeting.
