one hundred and fiftydifferent arti-
cles are handled for the army in this
plant and the restored articles are
placed in stock for reserve to the men

Pieces too old to be repaired are used

At other plants automobiles are re-
paired, and at others, airplanes,
trucks, guns and other equipment of
an army.
In the plant at Tours are employed
more than 5000 men and women,
mostly from Belgium and northern
France. The compensation paid
amounts to about 10 francs each per
day. How valuable the work done in
this plant is, may be judged when |

TEL Fortunes With Bones.

In the Transvaal the belief in KAT
fir doctors and their wizardry has not
died out. Nearly every old Kaftir has
always with him bag of bones
knuckles and joints of animals. With
these he pretends to be able. to fore
tell the future. He throws the
"dolos," as they are called, and then
reads out the omens. Should white
man wish to confer with the oracle,
he must throw the bones himself.
Many white men firmly believe in the
ability of the Kaffir doctor to cure
them from sundry ills, and in Rho
desia there have been many cases
where the Kaffir doctors have saved
whites from the ravages Of the terri
BILE fevers that rage there, in addi-
ton to coping successfully with
toothache and other ills.

Famous American Educator.

It was Elias LOOMS, born in Connec-
ticut in 1911, educated at Yale, pio-
neer teacher, who introduced astron-
omy to Western Reserve college in
1886, and remained on the faculty for
eight years, teaching mathematics and
physics and adding largely to the sum
of human knowledge. 1t has been said
that he made the name of that little
town in the western wilderness famil-
lar to the advanced scientists Of that
period throughout the world. For
many years Professor Loomis occupied
the chair of natural philosophy at
Yale, and died in 1889.
