which I was not in a position to sat

deposit it in my own, and afterward I
could refund it to her.
1 wondered, as we strolled' up Fifth
avenue together, how much she knew,
what SHE remembered, and what
thoughts went coursing through her
head. That childlike faith of hers was
rlarvelously sweet. l believed that
she was dimly aware that terrible
things lay in the past, and that she
trusted TO her forgetfulness as a
shield to shelter not only herself but
me. and would not voluntarily recall
what she had forgotten.
1t was necessary to buy her an out
fit of clothes, and this problem wor-
ried be good deal. l was afraid that
she would not know what to buy; but,

How. Gas Gets Rats.

An. enemy whose activities do not
igure in the official reports but against
which allied soldiers wage daily war
fare is the rat. Tens of thousands of
rats, huge sharp-fanged fighters, have
lug themselves in among the billets
and trenches in France and Flanders
and they are a constant torment.
Thanks to modern medical science,
there has been little or no disease
communicated by the rodents.
Rats multiply rapidly in the trench.
es and thrive well. They steal the
soldiers rations, disturb his rest and
spitefully bite him when he offers re-
sistance. The pest is hunted with fer
rets, terriers, poison and traps, and
when particularly numerous given q
gas attack. After the trenches are
drenched with gas they are generally
clear of rats for a long period.

Merely chanued Music.

How bands were once, sometimes, re-
cruited for the navy is suggested by
an old tale Of maritime warfare. When
the frigate United States, captured the
British frigate Macedonian about ii
hundred years age, it also captured a
band of eight French, German and
Italian musicians. The band had first
put to sea in French frigate, which
was captured by a Portuguese vessel
and brought into Lisbon. There the
musicians had been persuaded to en-
list on the Macedonian. After their
capture by the United States one
judges that they played just as cheer
fully for American sailormen as they
had already played for French, Por>
tuguese, and British.
