DID OUR SOLDIERS LOSE
 WEIGHT? WHY, THEY

Our army is coming back to these shores 1S,000 tons huskier than when it sailed overseas, according to the April number of the Red Cross Magazine, which reveals, in an article on \ Housekeeping in Khaki" why returned doughboyi literally burst out in the clothing they left at home. The average in crease in weight in the American army was 2 pounds to a man. This is due in very large measure, of course, to the seemingly limitless flow of wholesome foods directed into the training camps and to France by the Quartermaster's Corps.

WHERE DOES THE BLOOD HIDE?" BATTLES THE
 WORLDS SCIENTISTS

"Where does the blood hide?" is is a question to which science must address itself in spite of the many mysteries war surgery has solved. In cases of shock the blood leaves the heart and disappears somewhere within the body Where, no one can say, and discussion of the subject by Lieut.-Col. Walter B. Cannon, eminent Harvard physiolog- ist, forms one of the high lights of Emily Robbins article on Shock, . in the April number of the Red Cross Magazine.
 "The disappearing blood in cases of shock declares Lieut., Col. Can vestigations in the United States Army Laboratory for Surgical Re- search in France, was formerly supposed to he stagnating in the very capacious veins of the abdo- men, and to be thus drawn out of general circulation But during the war our surgeons have had to operate in hundreds of cases of shocked men and when the abdomen was opened they have found no evidence of the lost blood in that region.
 ''If the blood is not in the large vessels, where is it? We do not know the full facts about where it is hiding and the, question is one of the most difficult of the prob lens confronting US"
 The problem is a serious one, be- cause it is the disappearance of the blood that causes the fall in blood pressure that often brings on death. Red Cross Magazine.

ANECDOTES OF THE FAMOUS

Here is a story about Princess Mary, of the days when she used to steer for her brothers on the Thames. lone afternoon their boat nearly col lided with another boat rowed by two Eton boys. "When are you going to learn to row." asked one of the Etonians, as the boats bumped.
 "When you learn manners?'' re- torted Princess Mary. That, at least, is one version. The second journalist, having more space to fill, perhaps, reported the conversation as follows: ! Eton boy-"Why doesn't your mother teach you to steer before she send you out?" Princess Mary-"Why doesn't your mother teach You manners?" Possibly there is a third version floating around What was it She really said?

 While he was walking home one pitch-black night a sudden storm broke, and, seeking shelter from the , rain, he hastened to the nearest doorway. After waiting there for a few minutes, he spied a small boy coming along with an enormous um- brella.
 The premier, thinking the owner might offer to share, called out sharply: "Hi, there, young man! Where are you going with that um- brella?"
 The lad.. startled at Ie sound which apparently emanated from nowhere, dropped the umbrella, and fed up the street as hard as his legs would carry him. He vanished utterly, and MT. Hughes predica- ment was solved.
