Few Reminders Of Raids.

Studious lovers Of London will not

marvellous gift of eternal youth, she Is
obliterating every trace of the air raid
period as If it had never been. Some
of the scars made by emery bombs
still remain, as in the wholesale mar
ket in Covent Garden. but they might
pass as unnoticed as the effects Of re-
cent fi,es which are always to be
found in the great city. Notices Of the
air raid shelters are, however, already
hard to find; an odd one may be dis
covered on a lamp post in Tottenham
Court road, or at Gresham college.

Paper UndercIothino.

An excellent and durable quality Of
underclothing has been made of a fine
grained paper by Japanese manufac-
turers. After the paper has been cut
to a pattern the different parts are
sewn together and hemmed, and the
places where the buttonhOles are to
be formed are strengthened with calico
or linen. The paper is very strong and

a garment has been worn few hours

of the body no more than do garments
made of cotton fabric. The paper is
not sized. nor is 1t impermeable. After
becoming wet the paper is difficult to

much resistance as the thin skin used

MYSTERY OF LIFE
Who Knows Where 1t Comes
From or What It Is?
Marked Difference Between Mankind
and the Wild Things, in Their View
of Oeath-Lowcr Animals Lit
tie Impressed.

| Some folks talk abou. "the mystery
Of life." and it is as good way as any
to speak of it. Tor, truth is. nobody
seems to know anything about life.
Yet everything pays more attention to
living than to anything else. Prac-
tically every motive in the world.
among the wild things. Is to live.
Not even man, with all his knowl-
edge. knows where life comes from, or
what it is. George f. Burba writes in
the Columbus Dispatch.
1t is just the opposite Of death. he
will tell you; one either lives or dies.
If he is living, the body is in a certain
condition. The blood flows through
the veins. The heart beats. The body
is warm. One is conscious of that
which goes on about him. The very
opposite is true when a thing is dead,
whether the thing is man or dog
or bird or fish. But the why of it
all-nobody understands that.
The wild things strive with all their
might to escape death. but they pay
little attention to the dead things about
them. 1t doesn't seem to make any
impression upon an animal to run up
on another animal that is dead. out in
the woods. They fear death, but they
do not respect the dead, nor show any
emotion in the presence of death.
They do not know what it iS-that is,
they do not know that the dead crea-
ture they encounter in the woods il
dead and done for. If it is something
they want to devour. they devour' It:
If it Is not. they pass on without pay
ing much attention to it.
Death is more Of mystery to man.
That Is, 1t impresses him to a great
er extent. He thinks more of 1t. He
tries no harder to live than do the wild
things, but there is something in con-
nection with the presence Of q dead
creature that impresses a human be-
ing. This is especially true if one en-
counters death out In the fields or
woods. Tramping through forest, and
coming suddenly upon a dead animal,

mystery before him. Yesterday
splendid stag. let us say, roaming the
woods in triumph: strong and swift
and beautiful; conscious of his strength
and fleetness; living-breathing, see
ing, feeling. Today-there he lies.
His coat roughened by the winds or
rain, his eyes sightless, his limbs with
out NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. he lies there
like log rotting in the elements. Can
this be the stag of yesterday? Is the
thing called life all he needs today to
arouse him from the slumber-to
smooth his splendid coat, to bring the
CLEAN of light into the eye. to give
speed to the limbs? Then, whence the
thing called life? Or, from whence did
1t come in the beginning?
Thus do we mediate and marvel
at the mystery of life and death when
we are in the presence of death-espe-
cially II we encounter it in the great
shadows of the fOrest-out where there
is nothing to interrupt us, out where
reigns that which gives life and which
recalls It'll

But the Turks were not as bad as
Fritz. They were just as good or bet
ter as fighters, and a whole lot whittier.
Often. when we were frying In the
trenches and not drop of water was
to be had, something would land on
the ground near us and there would be
q water bottle, full. Sometimes they
almost bombarded US with bottles.
Then, too, they would not fire on the
Red Cross, as the Germans do; they
would hold their fire many times when
we were out picking up our wounded.
Several times they dragged our wound
ed as close as they could to the barbed
wire that we might find them easier.
After Murray died I got to thinking
lot more than used to, and though
l did not have any bunch exactly, still
1 felt as though I might get it, too
which was something I had never
thought much about before. I used to
think about my grandmother, too,

not know the other garbies very well,
and the only one left that WAS
really very friendly with got his soon
afterward. though not as bad as Muir

I was really chummy with. That would
not have bothered me at all before
Murray died.
The other lad spoke Of as having
been chummy with was Philippe
Pierre. He was about eighteen and
came from Bordeaux. He was a very
cheerful fellow and he and MuVay
and used to be together a lot. He
felt almost as bad about Murray al
I did, and you could see that 1t
changed him a great deal, too. But he
was still cheerful most Of the time.

went over and cleaned theIl out and
took the trench. But then our guns
had to stop because we wero In range,
and the Turks brought up reinforce
ments from other parts of the line and
we were driven back after holding
their trench all afternoon. It was
about fifty-f1fty, though, for when they
reinforced one part Of the line soma
Of our troops would break through In
another part.
That night there was terrible rain
storm. I guess it was really a cloud
burst. We had all the water we
wanted then, and more, too. A great
many men and mules were drowned,
both Of our troops and the Turkish.
Trenches were washed in and most of
the works ruined. There were several
Turkish bodies washed into our trench,
and two mules came over together.
