Lie Of Chilean Girls.

The Chilean girls reason for, being Ia
marriage, and one Of her earliest les,
sons is that woman's place Is indeed
the home and that man is ordained her
master, the World Outlook says. Old
maids have particularly horrid time
In Chile and most Of them take the
veil. There is little else for them to
do, for they can't all become school
teachers and no other career is open
for the young woman who does not
marry. Women journalists, doctors,
lawyers, stenographers and clerks are
practically unknown.
Perhaps this somewhat oriental idea.

the tinkling Of the piano rather thar

DREADED SNAKE UNDER FALLS
According to Indian Superstition, Rep
tiles Breaking Loose Ended In
Destruction Of Villages.

Formerly, according to Indian SUI
perstitiOn, there dwelt under Niagara
falls a gigantic snake. which now and
then would make Its way to an Indian
village and coil itself around the town.
It swallowed the people, and made
itself further obnoxious by poisoning
the springs and wells with it's spittle.
The Hiwassee river, in the south
ern Allegheny region, is infested by
an enormous leech. Occasionally a
certain ledge of rock is exposed when
the water is low, so that people are
tempted to cross over 1t. Anybody
who tries to do so, however, is inevi-
tably seized and sucked down.
Near the head Of the Savannah
river are the famous Talula falls. II
has been well known for centuries
that the Thunder Spirit lives beneath
these falls, and its roaring may at
any time be heard in the noise Of the
cataract. i4
One hundred miles to the southeast
Of Death valley Tin California; is
Dead mountain, which Is the abode of
multitudes Of ghosts. At all events,
the Indians so believe, though when
one approaches the mountain one per-
ceives that the spooks are merely
broken and precipitous rocks shining
white In the sun.

Miracle in the Mediterranean.

In an article on the submarine war.
fare In the Mediterranean contributed
to the November Century, Herman
Whitaker tells Of a lad on one Of the
American destroyers who had been
washed overheard in a black night
storm and was thought to be hope
lessly lost till a voice hailed the watch
from under the stern. He had caught
the logline, which trails for a couple
Of hundred feet behind, and hauled
himself along it. Another escape was
still more marvellous. Washed over
board at night from one Of the de-
stroyers, this particular lad was
heaved by a wave upon the deck Of
another vessel half mile astern.
When he was restored to his own ship
at the end of the voyage, his captain
thus addressed him: young man,
Won have used up all the luck you
will have in all your life. The navy
Is no safe place for you. Take my ad-
vice; get out Of it as soon as Uncle
Sam will let you"

FEW SHIPS ARE TOTAL, LOSS
Vessels Sunk by Mines or Torpedoes
Patched, Raised and Taken to
Port for Repairs.

Any one who imagines that all the
vessels sunk by enemy U-boats or
mines are left at the bottom. Of the
sea would be surprised If he could
be told the whole story Of ingenuity,
resource and unremitting toll Of the
British admiralty salvage corps. II
Almost as soon as a vessel is sunk
salvage operations are commenced.
Divers are sent down to take accurate
measurements of the size of the hole
made by the torpedo or mine. Small
holes are plugged with wood, but large
ones are patched with Standards
patches. These are made Of 12-inch
wooden beams, and patch sometimes
weighs as much as 20 tons.
As may be imagined, the size Of the
hole varies greatly. In some cases 1t
has measured 40 feet long by 20 feet
wide, and in one case it has been
known to be 48 feet long by rs feet
wide.
When the 3essels have been plugged
and patched, eheir cargo removed and
the water pumped out of them they
proceed to the nearest port where they
can be permanently repaired.
Several vessels have been torpedoed
after being refioated and have again
been successfully raised and taken
into port.

The people of this county will join
with other citizens throughout the
state in extending welcome to the
boys of the 16Sth infantry, known as
part of the Rainbow division, which
made an unprecedented record for
bravery and sacrifice in the pursuit of
the Germans for some time prior to-
the day the armistice was signed. No
other military organization that went
from the United States overseas made
such a record for efficiency as the
Rainbow division. From the time it
first, came into contact with the best
trained and best equipped forces Of
the German army up until the armis-
tice was signed, this division won the
praise and admiration Of not only their
own commanders, but of the command
ers OF both the French and English
armies. The great accomplishments
Of this army were not brought about
without heroic sacrifice and supreme
exhibitions of bravery. The best train
ed and best equipped German divis-
ions were unable to stand up in front
of the Rainbow division which stead
lily moved forward, constantly adding
new laurels to its record. 1t is no
wonder that people are proud Of the
work of this division and that our peo-
pie are looking for the opportunity to
show their gratitude and admiration
for the work of this great organization.
Council Bluffs is making great prep
arations to welcome home the Iowa
boys of the 168th, and when they
come there will be something doing
in the way of a welcome on the part
of the people. We understand that
Unit X will, within few days, return
to Council Bluffs, the medical organi-
cation so ably commanded by Colonel
McRae, and with these two organiza-
lions to be received by the people Of
western Iowa, it will not be strange
If the greatest demonstration In the
history of Iowa will be pulled off at
Council Bluffs within the next few
days.

MADE TIME Of GAY REUNION
: Dsatino the Bounds" In Virginia, at
Least, Drew Together Neigh.
bors From Far and Near.

ssBeating the bounds" was a spe.
cially important duty in the colonies,
where land surveys were imperfect,
land grants irregular, and the bound
aries Of each mans farm or planta-
ton at first very uncertain. In Vir-
ginia this beating the bounds was
called provisioning" Landmarks
were renewed that were becoming OBJ
liberated; blazes on tree would be
somewhat grown over - they were
deeply recut; piles OF great stones
containing certain number Tor des-
ignationo were sometimes scattered
the original number would be re-
stored. Special trees would be found
fallen or cut down; new marking
trees would be planted, usually pear
trees, as they were long-lived. Dis
putea boundaries were decided upon
and announced to all the persons pres
ent, some Of whom at the next "pro-
cessioning" would even be able to
testify as to the correct line. This
provisioning took place between
Easter and Whitsuntide, that lovely
season of the year in Virginia; and
must have proved a pleasant reunion
OF neighbors, a May-party. In New
England this was called "perambu-
lating the bounds" and the surveyors
who took charge were called "peram-
bulators" or "boundsgoers."-Alice
