FRENCH PROUD OF DOG HERO
Brave Deeds of Artemis Have Won
Him Wide Rencwn Among the
Fighters for "La Patrie"

There was a fOggy night once when
his acute hearing failed Artemis. who
was doing guard duty out on No Mans
Land. Artemis. it must be explained,
is a popular hero of France, a dog Of
| uncertain pedigree, with n mixture Of
the Great Dane in lin and a touch of
the French mountain sheep-dOg. So
serious was the result of this treach-
cry on the part of his ears that see
ton of his regiment was cut off. Poor
Artemis! He had always been so faith
full and had so often saved his friends.
But they trusted him still and, to
prove it, they dispatched him with a
note attached to his collar warning
their comrades of their danger 1t was
hot night on the line, and the bullets
were flying fast. Phut phut they fell
round the flying feet of Artemis, but
he paid no heed to them. His reputa-
ton was at stake. and he redeemed it.
He got through with his message. Aid
was sent to his squad tt arrived in
time. And there followed a celebra-
ton in honor Of Artemis arranged by
the colonel himself.
The hero, however, was not yet sat. |
isfied that his duty was done. At |
Ypres he continued to act as courier
and patrol, ans no accidents interfered |
with his efficiency now. Finally came
Il day when the captain commanding
him found his own life threatened by
the attack of two BOches. None of his
men were near him. But Artemis was.
The captain managed 10 kill one as
'ailant. As he did so, the other cock
I'd his rife to shoot. WhereupOn At
ennis, exerting all his strength, sprang
II the mans throat seized it so vicious
Y that he strangled him. The captain

Time Is Valuable.

Habit accustoms us to doing most
of the everyday things in particular
ways, and we think of them only when
they chance to be done differently. We
sometimes get the habit Of being late
in keeping engagements, and feel that
the loss, if any, is our own affair. 1t
is also the affair of the one we keep
waiting, as he may consider his time
Of much value. Only the idle and
careless, whose time is of the least
value, can afford to waste it by care.

BUSY GREEK PEASANT GIRL
Care of Sheep and Goats, and House
hold Duties, Leave Her Little
Time for DaIIylng.

To the Greek peasant girl is COM
mitted the care Of her fathers flock,
which she must lead every day to the
pasture and fold at night. The vosko-
poula, or shepherdess, is one of the
most prominent characters in rural
folk song, and many a charming idyl
has been composed in her honor.
But she has little time for sylvan dali
lying, for the sheep and goats must be
MIXED, and the milk must be convert
ed into cheese and yiaourti, a delicious
and whOles0 ONE sour curd, which is in
great demand in the towns. When the
sheep have been shorn, the wool is
bleached and spun, and then knitted
and woven into garments for the fam
lily or into cloth for sale. The cotton
or flax grown on the farm must also
be gathered in their seasons, and pre-
pared for use. The cotton pods are
put through a small hand machine
called the manganO, which turns two
rollers different ways, and separates
The fiber from the seed. The instru-
ment next used is the toxevein. a large
bow made from a curved piece of
wood five or more feet long, the two
ends Of which are connected by a stout
string. The cotton is placed loosely
on the string, which is made to vibrate
by being struck with a stick, produc-
ng a not unmusical sound. This proc
sss detaches the particles of cotton,
md it is now ready to use as wad-
ling for the large quilts, which, with
| sheet tackled to the under side, form
Ill the winter bed covering used by
he lower orders of natives of every
