FALSE VANITY'S HOME.

The boy and girl adventurers were
very. anxious to see Madame False
Vanity. Among other things Master
TlouGhtfulness told them: that; she
would call them fine and beautiful
And that she would want them to be-
lieve it. They laughed at that.
When the boy and girl had started out
on their adventures at first they had
had no idea that they would meet so
many creatures They had thought they
might meet few, but. they had, no
idea they would meet. different ones
all the time and the old friends from
time. to time. And they. didn't think
that they would get to know all Of
them so we'll that they could call
everyone they met by name.
They talked about this us they got
up the next. morning in time to meet
Master Thoughtfulness for breakfast.
1--WE know them by name, and they're
all like their. names, to0," said the
girl, and just then, for they were now
on their way to breakfast, Master
Thoughtfulness said: "Good morning,

Pre- historic Indian Surgeons Knew

Prehistoric Indians of South Ameri-
ca, had crude medicine men who re-
moved splinters of agrow-heads and
stone bludgeons from wounded war
riors by cutting through the skull with
knives of stone of obsidian and other
simple instruments wrought from cop
per and bronze. Sometimes the patti
ent lived; frequently he went to the
happy hunting ground.
These uncomfortable treatments of

mishes still continue in remote areas
of Bolivia. Evidence of this has been
gathered by field workers from the

South America by the late DR.. Adolph

Grated upon. Among surgeons the prac-
tice is known as trephining. 1t consists
of removing disk or button of bone
from the skull with saw called tre-
phine.
Complex fracture, of the skull with
depression of the bony plates must
have been common occurrences dur
ing the ancient tribal wars when
clubs headed with stone and copper
along with sings. the Bob" and the
''lliui" were offensive weapons, said
the reports of the Museums investi-
gators. -.
A natural procedure, they opined,
with victims who survived skull frac..
lures must have been attempts to re-
move the splinters Of bone that prick
ed the brain. or to cut out fragments

reported. When the laughter and the
free -for-alls quiet down, the medi-

the operation they scrape around the

Modern anaesthetics are unknown
to the medicine men,. They put their
patient into. insensibility by constant
use of the "cocap plant. This also is
employed for healing purposes, and
is commonly applied to wounds
bruises and contusious.

Apples with Rice.

Pare and core a dozen medium
sized cooking apples and rub each ap-
pic with cut lemon to keep it white.
Boil in thin sugar syrup until te:'

and glaze in the oven until a. light

and arrange on 4 flat baking dish for

real names which we try to live up to-.
That's because you understand those
you meet and their ways, for you're
real adventures"
They had breakfast and hurried
through it, though from time to time
Master Thoughtfulness said: Madame
False Vanity lives only a short dis
tance from here, so we have a. whole
hour, or almost whole. hour, for: our
breakfast. 1t wouldn't do to wake her
up and get her up ahead of time. She
would be quite insulted II. we did. So
We mustn't hurry too much"
The boy and the. girl tried to eat
their breakfast more slowly, though 1t
was hard. They we're looking forward
to having their fortunes told and hear
ing what Madame False Vanity had
to say to them.
"It's about time now," said Master
Thonghtfulness, as lie saw that the
boy had finished the last bit
of the eggs on his plate and that the
girl had finished her toast, which had
been made by some little wood elves.
They were off in a few minutes,
walking out from the fields to the road.
"The road doesn't seem so bumpy
and so rough this morning" said the
girl. II suppose it is because we had
such a wonderful rest"
They walked along a little distance
until they came to thicket.
"This IS where she llres," said Mas
ter Thoughtfulness.
They had q very hard time getting
through the thicket, but Master
Thoughtfulness, who had brought his
jack-knife along, cut down much Of
the undcrbrush, which would have
scratched their faces as they went
along
"Hello," he called, as he got quite a
distance into the thicket, we've come
TO have our fortunes told"
Tie boy and the girl followed Mas
ter Thoughtfulness along. They heard
voice.
"I'm ready to tell fortunes now" the
voice said. ~ will tell such beautiful
fortunes. Come and have your for
tunes told"
'Thats Madame False Vanity" said
Master Thoughtfulness. "She is sit
ting on a moss covered stone little
further through the thicket, and we
will see how she Is gazing at herself in
the pool, which is very tiny, and by
which she sits all day. It's a rather
dirty pool, and she can see herself but
dimly."
They went just little further and
there they saw Madame False Vanity
sitting just as Master Thoughtfulness
had said.
At first they thought she was very
pretty, and then they changed their
minds. For nothing about her seemed
very real. And then they saw the rea-
son for her name.

The purpose Of warfare is to break
down the enemy man power as quickly
as possible" he said 1.-The three cri-
terra by which the humaneness Of any
particular method might be. judged
are: ;...:..a: :.
First-The efficiency of the method
to produce widespread casualties; "
Second per. cent. Of deaths
among the wounded and finally the
competentness of recovery Of the
wounded.
1.-THE efficiency Of toxic gas to pro-
duce widespread casualties was amply
demonstrated in the last war, AS to
the test Of hunaneness the death rate
from bullets and shrapnel wounds in
the last war. among American soldiers
was in round numbers "a per. cent; and
from gas wounds two per cent, the Brit
ish rate running about two and one
half per cent. Thus a soldier wounded
from gas has twelve. times the chances
of recovery over "a soldier wounded
from shrapnel. without. the chance OF
permanent Disagreement" .-..,:=sgs !:

The Breakfast Cap.

There are those times in the af-
fairs of the fair damsel when it is nee
essary to crown even the crowning
glory, but nobody minds when bit
Of lace and O. few beads are the gay
confiners. 80. ...
Way down in her heart every wom-
an wishes 4 to be charming. not just
once in while, but all the time-even
at that most trying hour Of the day
the breakfast hour. When there is not
much time between the time one goes
10 bed and the rising bell there is not
a great deal of opportunity 10 primp
and to prim, and then a friend indeed
is the dainty little cap that hides all
the sins of which ones locks may pc
guilty when the day is young.
Yet so fetching are these breakfast
caps that they deserve TO be loved FOR
their beauty alone. not just because
they are so ready and willing to serve
as first aid to the hurried.
What sort of cap is the most pe-
coming? Milady's query is being an
swered in any number Of delightful
ways---variety is here. rampant quite
as much as in any other Of fashions
realms. Sometimes the bit OF mead
gear depen"r 70" its appeal upon the
ARRANGEMENT of length OF ribbon'
upon o touch OF embroidery, upon n
drop of lace. Wearableness is invari-
ably blended with charm. and each
style of cap is an exponent OF. dil-
ferent mode.
We have had much in common with
cur cousins across the seas during the
last year or SO. and this getting IN
touch" with things foreign has in
fluenced Dame Fashion to consider-
