The Freflycltll't.nan Is Devoted To
 His Home

In counting the sorrows that nave fallen upon France one must remember that her people, for the most part have no wandering instinct In thelr blood; various causes. temperamental' economic, have made of them race that roots stubbornly. A race that plans forward, that builds and saves and stints; that has little careless trust in the future, in the baphaZaru turn of events; that holds to what 1t has and improves 1t unadyenturouis- Iy but steadily; 8 race, In the prov inces especially, of small owners, small !andholders, small shopkeepers. Wlth such the roots are driven deep into the soil, are entwiued about the house they seldom move from; for which reason the towns ia which they and their fathers have dwelt have q lasting indl- vlduallty unisrown with more, emigrant races. And tor the same reason, make no doubt that when they are driven forth by the chances Of war their suffering is greater than that or a people as Instinctlvely emigrant as ourselves. To the Frenchman, home is in very truth an abiding place, ana the unknown and unsettled future greater dread than with us. Always l shall remembe: the dulled, tight-npped faces of the older women of the town ; of one, in particular, who stared through the splintered windows of the little shop that was her home, not seeming to hear while I stumbled out my sympathy, resenttul and si- lent in her hopeleSsness. The little shop and the rooms behind 1t had been life and the world to herself and her husband for years. None or them was emotional outwardlyi but then mouths and their eyes were despair lng.-Cicely Hamilton in the North American Review.

CORNCOBS PUT TO GOOD USE
Belief That They Can Be Made the NucIeus of a Great and Profit
 able Industry.

COrncObs-a great waste product in the worlds greatest corn-produclng na- tlOn-have been made to yield adhes- i've gum and other useful substances in quantities sufficient to convince chemists of the United States depart ment of agriculture that the nucleus Of a profitable and important industry lies in this direction.
 In addition to adhesive gum, experl- ments have produced cellulose and glu- cose, both of which have many con- merclal uses. The glucose so produced crystallizeS well, and 1t is believed can be used In the same ways as crystal line glucose from starch. Manufac- ture of alcohol by the fermentation of corncob glucose appears practicable Ii sulphuric acid Is obtainable cheaply.
 To utilize corncobs commercially, the chemists believe, a large and cost ly plant would be necessary, and the bureau of chemistry does not advise any enterprise of the sort in war time.

Where a Motion Was Just as Good.

In the woods just west of Thlau- court a lieutenant in the sanitary corps went out to test the water in a nearby spring. While he was OF this job he looked up just in time to see two Boches advancing. Although armed with nothing deadlier u,an a 6rst-aid pouch, he made n motion toward his right hip. Immediately both Boches, catching the motion, lifted their hands In surrender.
 Other Boches soon came forward from the woods, and each, coming sud denly upon the officer still making threatening motions toward his pistol less hip, surrendered in turn.
 By the time a sergeant and five Yankee privates came along the lieu tenant had a bag of 19 German prison srs to turn over to them.-Stars and Stripes.

JAMES KNEW IT WAS COMING
So, Contrary to All Precedent, He Pleaded With His Mother to Ad-

James. his mother called him, but he preferred the name of Jimmie, by which the nciChbOrhood knew him. He also preferred rough-and-tumble clothes to Starchy clean apparel-the movies to Sunday schOOl-and almost anything to grade school, although he had given It only a few weeks trial, the Kansas City Star says.
 While his father is overseas with a government permit to hunt the Hun, the mother adds to the family Income by working In an office close to home. James had made it a custom to meet his mother at the closing hour and ac- company her home.
 Early one morning James started for school dressed in a clean new suit. That evening an almost unrecogniza- ble SIX-year-old yOungster awaited his mother at the office. Immediately upon her appearance he stepped forth with the explanation. fOrestalling any thing that might be said or done on her part.
