Shells Still Flying,

Residents of the devasta led districts
OF France are still fleeing from bursts
Of shell and shrapnel
The new menace is caused by the
small grass and swamp fires, which
frequently set off the shells that have
been piled up to be hauled away and
exploded in some safe place.
Maj. 81. C. Greene of Boston had a
thrilling ride and narrowly escaped a
hail of shrapnel on his way from st.
Quentin to Laon as a result of one Of
these fires. A French woman work
Ing in a field near Bouconville was
gassed and considerable damage has
been done.
In the vast, desolate fields, thou.
sands of unexploded shells have been
picked up by German prisoners, and
though there are details hauling them
away and exploding them in remote
valleys every day, there. are still long
ranks of them everywhere. Sparks
from locomotives and from small fires
where battlefield rubbish is being
burned occasionally set fire to patches
Of dry weeds, and the accidental
bursts are numerous.

It was erected to provide place Of

and no bells were allowed. Out Of
this concession grew the religious

"PERFECT" MAN GETS ROAST
london Writer Refuses to Envy Wem-
On Who Are "Blessed" With
Such 4 Life Companion.

Every one envied q certain lady be-
cause it was apparent that she had
such a'perfect a husband.
True enough, the gentleman neither
drank, swore, looked at other women,
grumbled, nor did he spend any time
away from his wife except when at
business.
Yet the woman who possessed" this
model Of perfection found him most
Irritating companion with whom she
was forced to spend her life. says Lon
don Answers. For instance, if she got
worn out trying to pacify baby, who
was cross, and eventually lost her tenn
per with the child, her husband would
come In, take the little one in his arm
and amiably try-and often succeed,
as q fresh person sometimes does-to
work the oracle with calmness.
That would be all very we'll If he
didn't put on the "See how much bet
ter my method is" air, which is most
tantalizing. ,
Perfect men are so anxious to OBJ
trude their perfection upon their wom-
enfolk that they often defeat their own
ends. They spend money on seats for
the opera or buying little presents with
no knowledge Of whether such will be
the most acceptable or desirable gifts.
It is because these men are so good
IN intentions that their wives haven't
the heart to say, I'D rather have had
shillings for new box iron. It would
save me such q lot Of trouble"
The husband who has few glaring
faults is pretty sure to look over his
wife's failings and humor her whims.
The perfect man has a horrible knack
of preaching at his womenfolk.
The woman with faultless husband
often feels like doing something to
make him swear at her. Perfection Is
apt to become dull and monotonous.
Don't envy the woman with per-
feet husband, you wives who wish
your own men wouldn't drop cigarette
ash on the carpet or storm bit when
things 60 wrong; for these careless,

qualities to balance their faults.

TO complain rarely softens it to wife

ket. Begin feeding a small ration In
the morning. and a larger one at night
II the turkeys are overfed In The
morning. they will not go ont TO for
age, and will thus lose the best part
OF their fattening ration-the natural
food of bugs, grasshoppers and worms;
they will also lose the appetite which
foraging gives. The night meal may
be a mash made of boiled new corn
potato and other vegetable skins,
with or without bran. Do not give
new corn without boiling. as II is apt
to cause bowel trouble In the t'lr'
keys. Sour milk Is a most valuable
addition to the ration. Keep cracked
charcoal and grit before them. Don't
give them all they will eat the irsl
feed: use the same caution In getting
turkeys on full feed that you would
use for fattenIng hogs. They mus
be kept free from lice. and IN Clean
