GLORlFIED IN WARS ANNALS
Drummer Boys Have Wed With Vic
torious Commanders in Having
Place in History's Pages.

The most thrilling tales of the little
drummers come from NGpoleon's cam
paigns.
on the retreat from Russia, when
grown men died by the hundreds from
the ravages of the cold and the Cos
sacks. a goodly number of drums were
strung along back of the gruesome
path of the fleeing Frenchmen. In the
rear guard, which was commanded by
the gallant Marshal Ney, was a clipper
drummer boy of about twelve years.
The constant fighting and burden of
keeping the human wolves off the rear
of the army was terrific. and only the
inspired drumming of the boy and his
childish Long live France" saved
them from succumbing time after time.
During brave stand or when Ney
halted his men and turned back upon
their tormentors. young France would
sound the charge with such a shatter-
ing roll of enthusiasm that the grena
diers waded back through the snow
and scattered the Cossacks like chaff.
Turning to flee to the refuge of the
main body. some stalwart would throw
the boy astride of his shoulders and
bear him off the field.
From this point of vantage the drum
mer would beat the retreat and shout
back street gamiri eplthets at the Rus
SLAMS. When they came to Il river he
was not at G loss for crossing. Sim
ply mounting his drum and padding,
he went across in comfort
French urchins are full of such hero
ism, and the drummer boys became the
most popular and feted members Of
the French army. barring, Of course,
the marshals.

Naturc,s Methods.

Natures methods, we say, are
blind, haphazard the wind blows
where 1t listeth, and the seeds fall
where the winds and waters carry
them; the frosts blight this section
and spare not; the rains flood the
country in the West and the drought
burns up vegetation in the East. And
yet we survive and prosper. Nature
averages up well. We see nothing
like purpose or viii in her total
scheme of things, yet inside her hit
and-miss methods, her storms and tor
nadoes and earthquakes and distem-
pers, we see fundamental benefac-
tion. If 1t Is not goodwill it amounts
to the same thing. Our fathers saw
special providences, but we see only
Interchangeable laws. Nature has no
art, no architecture, no music. Her
temples, as the poets tell us, are the
woods, her harps the branches of the
trees, her minstrels the birds and in
sects, her gardens the fields and way
sides-all safe comparisons for pur-
poses of literature. but not for pur-
noses of science.@JohD Burroughs in

A POSTSCRIPT written to the story
IA of suits is due just now and may
be briefly written, since ike story itself
was not a long one this season. There
has been great uniformity of styles and
considerable variety in details of fin
ishing, and the points that dlstin-
guished suits at the beginning of the
seHsOn proved to be very popular, so
that there has been no good reason for
running after strange gods Now that
the season is over, and designers are
turning their attention to spring, we
are not likely to find any startling In
novations In winter styles.
The two suits pictured are found
among the liberal quota of fur-trim-
med models that have made up a
part of nll representative collections.
Tho suit at the left is one of the few
that have shown themselves independ-
ent of the vogue for coats reaching al
most to the knees. There are n few
mo lels that keep It company, so that
1t is not wholly audacious, but they
are very becoming and good in style.

placements of fur at each side of the

IN A CIRQUE ID haas for lIttIe gIrls, b

TN A GROUP of hats for little girls, 1t
i is not without intention that Il
plain felt is placed at the top; for of
all millinery for children, the hand
some beaver or felt, with ribbon trim,
holds its own as always above criti-
cIsm and always appropriate. These
beavers and felts, plain as they are,
come in an unbelievable variety of
shapes and endlessly ingenious ribbon
trims, and In all needed sizes and
colors. They are here and have been
for many years and are as certain Of
return each year as the seasons are.
Occasionally one comes across model
that has little additional cmbelllsh-
ment besides the ribbon band or sash
and In those pictured there is fiat,
stitched band of felt about the brlm-
edge.
But even these lovely beavers and
felts have rivals in pretty hats of vel
vet, each enhancing the virtue of the
other. Just below the felt hat, at the
left there is shown a delightful bon
net-llke shape with soft crown of vel

THE GRASSHOPPER: MUSI-
CLAN, MONSTER AND
AVIATOR

Once more the ravenous Grasshopper
wrought devastation upon Western
fields this fall. and the plague became
especially destructive in Texas.
Writing to the National Geographic
society, David Fnirchlld describes this
fascinating, if ruthless, creature MS
follows:
'The young king grasshopper is
probably twenty days old and its wings
have not developed. but it can jump a
hundred times its length, whereas man
can scarcely cover three times his
length at a leap. When its wings grow
and its internal air sacs fill with air It
can sail away for miles. One represen-
tative of this great family can sail for
a thousand miles before the wind, and
they go in such numbers that they
make a cloud 1000 square miles in eN-
tent.
Its great front lip hides a pair of
jaws as effective as hay-chopper. and
1t has an appetite as vorac ciOus as that
of n hippopotamus. This voraclous-
ness and these jaws are what have
made several of its relatives the
plague of mankind. They multiply in
such numbers rs to battle all calcula-
ton, and every living green thing for
thousands of square miles disappears
down their throats, leaving the coun-
try they infest desolate.
"When the young grasshopper
emerges from the egg it is very small
indeed-a wlngless, helpless little
creature all legs and mouth.

MODERN TATOI AND
ANCIENT ATHENS

Constantine, whose return Ia the
throne of Greece was discussed after
the death of Alexander. had u famous
summer palace ut Tatoi, before his abb
dlcation. There he spent much time
during the final uneasy months of his
reign.
Tatoi is 16 miles north of Athens by
way of Kophisia. In strong contrast
to the harsh and stormy political situ-
alton which encompassed the members
of the royal family following the out
break of the World war their physical
environment was wholly delightful, for
Tatoi Is one of the most beautiful
spots of Attica, nesting almost at the
foot of the Parnes mountains. In the
distance towers the famous Penteli-
kon, from whose summit one may OBJ
tain the finest view to he had from
any of the Attic hills.
Historically, Tatoi is noteworthy for
being freighted with unhappy associa-
tions. In its vicinity stand the ruins
of an old fort, known as the kastro,
which marks the center of the dcmc
(tOwnship) OF Decelea.
It was at Decelea, u miles in an air
line north of Athens, that the traitor
Alcibiades, he Of whom Aristophanes
w-Cte thai "they (the AthenHn sol
diers) love, they hate, hut cannot live
without him." cOunseled the Spartans
to construct strong fortltications in or
der to intercept the caravans of grain
from Euboea, which supplied the cap
ital with food. Alclbiades, by his be
trayal of the AtheniIn navy which had
invested Syracuse in Sicily, had al
ready fulfilled the prophecy of the
misunthrope Timon who had said upon
one of the many occasions when the
young Attendants rash proposals had
been indOrsed by the populace, Go on,
my brave boy, and prosper; for your
prosperity will bring on the ruin of all
this crowd" His advice to seize and
fortify Decelea in Alb Il. c. brought
irretrievabIe ruin on his native city
and resulted in an inestimable loss to
the human race, for 1t crushed Athens.
By one of the strange whims of 'the
crowd" the Athcnian army in its dark
est hour sent a message to Alcibiades
inviting him to desert the Spartans in
own people. And by an equally strange
whim Alcibiades accepted the invita-
ton, rushing to Samos to assume
command of his old associates. But II
was too late. Athens was doomed.
Lysander, commanding the Spartan
navy, administered crushing defeat
to Athenian sea power at Aegospotami.
on the Hellespont. Three thousand of
the defeated Athenians were massa-
cred and Xenophon. the historian.
with tragic simplicity relates that
when the news reached the capital,
"That night no man slept"
Tatoi is reached today by railway
journey of eight and half miles to
Xephisia, and carriage drive of
saven and half miles from that point.
TIE new summer palace was built for
the king and the old palace was de-
signed as the residence of the crown
prince. A beautiful park and ven
cradle oak grove surround the royal
homes. A short distance to the north
is the barracks of the rural police,
known MS the Chorophylakes.

WOMEN THE FINANCIERS
OF A FORGOTTEN
KINGDOM

Along busy highways of ocean trav-
el, land links between Japan and For
mosa, not far from China's coastwise
routes, yet visited by only two or three
white persons a year-such are the
Loo Choo uuchu or Ryuku islands.
Loo Choo is a land full of the inde
scribable charm and mystery of the
Orient, but replete with the pathos of
vanishing race" writes Roy Chap
man Andrews to the National Geo
graphic society.
But, although 1t has been 40 years
since there sounded the death knell
of this little hidden kingdom, Loo
Choo is not yet Japan. The traveller
realizes this even before he lands. The
pine-clothed. tomb-dotted hills which
form the background of the strange
little cities of Naha and Shuri have
an unfamiliar look and the pretty tiled
roofs of the diminutive houses, just
visible over the surrounding gray
stone walls, give fascinating hints of
what may be found beyond their lac
quered gateways. On their entire 900
square miles of land only one white
man, an American missionary, is resi-
dent.
"With our money changed, we began
to look about to spend it, for Loo Choo
is the home of the red lacquer ware
famous throughout the world. Much
of 1t is exported, and the finest of the
boxes, bowls, trays, tables, etc, which
are in daily use in Japan and China
and sold to tourists throughout the
Orient, come from the little city of
Naha, or Shuri, its neighbor across the
hills. The lacquer ware, when first
made, is n dull brown, but really first
class pieces improve with age and soon
change to n beautiful vermilion, be-
coming brighter and clearer the longer
they are used.
"When we came to buy lacquer we
were greatly surprised to find that bar
gaining had no place in Loo Choo.
Without exception, the first price
asked for an article was the one for
which it was sold. Never in the ORR
ent had we met with similar condi-
tlOn.
at was interesting TO find, also, that
the women of Loo Choo conduct all
business and have charge of every
thing pertaining TO money-with the
single slight exception of spending 1t.

like hats for grownups. 1t is also

and has an upturned brim split at each
side. SIX cord edges the brim and

bright motifs in silk embroidery help
the gaiety of the winter season. No
wonder It's small wearer is so pleased
with life In general and her hat In
particular. It Is clever piece of de-
signing in which the means used for
developing maturer headwear have
been perfectly adopted to childhood.
Hats as elaborate as this look best
with plain coats and 1t happens that
coats for girls are plain this season.
