Fuel From House Refuse.

The annual production of Great Brit aims house refuse, which amounts to some 100000 tons, could be made to yield 3,0OOOOO tons of fuel without touching its three to four million tons fertilizer content, J. A. Priestly, pres ident of the London conference of the Institute of Clearing Superintendents, declares. He also states the fuel con- tent represents approximately one tenth of the annual domestic coal con- sumption of the country and even talk ing into full consideration its compara. lively small calorif1c value, the sav- ing to the nation from it's utilization
 would be enormous. This system of recovery of fuel in domestic refuse is no longer an experiment, he says, and
 is practical for universal adoption ex- cept for conflict with vested interests.

 'But the Johnnies were bad men, weren't they, GrandpaY
 "No."
 The boys forehead, customariIy va- cant, showed some little vertical shadows, produced by struggle to think. "Well. but" he began slowly. "Listen, Grandpa, listen here! You said-you said you never got scared the ole Johnnies were goin' to win"
 "They did win pretty Often," said the grandfather. "They won a good many battles"
 "I mean, you said you never got scared they'd win the war"
 ''NO, we were never afraid of that"
 "Well, but if they were good men and fought like wildcats, Grandpa, and kep' winning battles and every thing. how could that be? How could you help bein' scared they'd win the war;"
 The grandfather's feeble eyes twin kled brightly. "Why, we knew they couldn't, Ramsey"
 At this, the little vertical shadows on Ramsey's forehead became more pronounced, for he had succeeded in thinking. "Well, they didn't know they couldn't, did they?" he argued. "They thought they were goin' to win, didn't they?"
 "Yes; I guess they did. But you see they were wrong"
 "Well, but" Ramsey struggled. Listen Listen here, GrandpaI We'll, anyway, if they never got scared we'd win, and nobody got scared they'd win well, don't see"
 ''You don't see what?"
 But Ramsey found himself unable to continue his concentration. "Oh, nothin' much" he murmured.
 'T sec" And his grandfather laughed again. "You mean: If the Johnnies felt just as sure of winning the war as we did and kept winning battles, why shouldn't we ever have had any doubts we were going to win? That's It, isn't it?"
 'I guess so, Grandpa"
 ''Well, think it was mostly because we were certain that we were right"
 'T see," said Ramsey. 'The Johnnies knew they were on the side of the devil" But at this, the grandfather's laugh was louder than 1t had been be- fore, and Ramsey looked hurt. "Wen, you can laugh if you want to!" he objected in an aggrieved voice. "Any- way, the Sunday school sup'intendent told us when people knew they were on the devils side they always"
 'T dare say, dare say" the old man interrupted, little impatiently. "But in this world mighty few people think they're on the devils side, Ramsey.

Effectively Employed in the Philippines, and Might Be Made UsefuI in
 This Country.

The placenta shell, found in abund- ance in the southern Philippine islands, offers a unique, practical and decorative resource in home adOrn' ment. says Good Furniture Magazine.
 Being fairly flat and roughly cir cular. translucent and up to three inches ;n diameter and about one sixteenth inch thick, the placenta shell serves the better class of Filipino house in place of glass. The strong tronical light is pleasingly modified as 1t passes through the shell-panes held together by wooden strips or lead bands.
 Decoratively, the shell should find many uses. It is already being worked m by the FilipinOs, under American direction, into lamp-Shade frames in most pleasing shapes.
 It seems that it might find limited snplication in furniture as in cabinet door inserts or medallions in panels, in wood or metal screens where the vision but not the light is to be barred.
 But the greatest use of this curi- Ouslv beautiful shell would seem to lie in the domain of the lighting fix ture and lamp industry, where effects can be produced by transmitted light in a sure and most charming manner.

SHELLS USED FOR WINDOW PANEs

Ous deposits that many explorers who have visited Alaska say that the fos- sils serve the prospectors as indexes of the metallic richness of the soil.
 In ancient times both the gold and the bones and bodies of the animals were deposited at the bottom of valleys by the action of rivers and smaller streams, many of which have now disappeared. Consequently, the ap- pearance of fossils is an almost certain indication that gold will be found in the neighbOrhood. The cabins of many miners are Ornamented with huge tusks and antlers, unearthed in the dig gings.

 Boom" The veterans had begun to fire their cannon on the crest of the low hill, out at the cemetery; and from little way down the street came the rat-a-tat of toy drum and sounds of a fife played execrably. A file of chil- dren in cooked hats made of newSpa- pers came marching importantly up the sidewalk under the maple shade trees; and in advance, upon a veloci- pede, rode a tin-sworded parsonage, shrieking incessant commands but not concerning himself with whether or not any military obedience was there by obtained.

gard eyeIids opened electrtcally; hb leaped to his feet and, abandoning his grandfather without preface or apollo gy, sped across the lawn and out of the gate, charging headlOng upon the commander of the company.
 "You get off that 1Ocipede, Wesley Benderp he beloved. You gimme that sword! What rights you got to go bein' captain O my army, I'd like to knowl Who got up this army, in the first place, I'd like to knOwI I did, myself, yesterd'y Afternoon, and you get back in line or I won't let you b1ong to 1t at all!"
 The pretender succumbed; he in- stantly dismOunted, being Out-shouted and overawed. On foot he took his place in the ranks, while Ramsey be- came sternly vociferous. "In-tentiOn, company! Farwud march! Column right! Right-shOwdler harms! Halt 1 Far-wud march. Carry harms"
 The army went trudging away un- der the continuous but unheeded fire of orders, and presently disappeared round a corner, leaving the veteran chuckling feebly under his walnut tree and alone with the empty street. All trace of what he had said seemed to have been wiped from the grandsOn's mind; but memory has curious ways. Ramsey had understood not fifth nor tenth of his grandfather's talk, and already he had forgotten" all of it. yet not only were there many, many times in the boys later life when, without ascertainable cause, he would remember words and sentences spoken by the grandfather, though the Hs- tener, half-drowsily, had heard but the sound of an old, earnest voice-and even the veterans meaning finally took on a greater definiteness till 1t became, in the grandsOn's thoughts, something clear and bright and beaut- ful that he knew without being just sure where or how he had learned it.

CHAPTER II

Ramsey Milholland sat mIserably in school, his conscious being consisting principally of a dull hate. TOrpor was a little dispersed during fifteen minute interval of Music" when he and all the other pupils in the large room of the Five B. Grade" sang re- peatedly fractions of what they enun- ciated as "The Star Span-guh-hulled Banner; but afterward he relapsed into the low spirits and animosity nat ural to anybody during enforced con- finement under instruction. No alleyta- tiOn was accomplished by an invaders temporary usurpatiOn of the teachers platform, brisk and unsympathetical- ly cheerful young woman mounting thereon to "teach German"
 For a long time mathematics and German had been about equally re- pulsive to Ramsey, who found himself daily in the compulsory presence of both; but he was gradually coming to regard German with the greater hOr- TOT, because, after months of patient mental resistance, he at last began to comprehend that the German language has sixteen special and particular ways of using the German article core spending to that flexible bit of a word so easily managed in English-the. What in the world was the use of having sixteen ways of doing thing that could just as well be done in one3 If the Germans had contented them selves with insisting upon sixteen use less variations for infrequent words, such as hippOpotamus, for instance, Ramsey might have thought the affair unreasonable but not necessarily vi- cious-it would be easy enough to avoid talking about a hippopOtamus if he ever had to go to Germany. But the fact that the Germans picked out and the and many other little words in use all the time, and gave every one of them sixteen forms, and expected Ramsey Milholland to learn this dizzy ing uselessness down to the last crotchety detail, with "When to employ Which" as a nausea to prepare for the final cOnVuIsion when one didn't use Which, because 1t was an Exception" there was a fashion of making easy matters hard that was merely hellIsh.
 The teacher was strict but enthu- siastic; she told the children, over and over, that the German was a beautiful language, and her face always had a glow when she said this. At such times the children looked patient; they supposed 1t must be so, because she was an adult and their teacher; and they believed her with the same man. ner of believing which those of them who went to Sunday school used there when the Sunday school teachers were pushed into explanation of various matters set forth in the Old Testa- ment, or gave reckless descriptions of heaven. That is to say, the children did not challenge or deny; already they had been driven into habits of resignation and were passing out of the age when childhood is able to re- feet adult nonsense.
 Ramsey Milholland did not know whether the English language was beautiful or not; he never thought about 1t. Moreover, though his deeper inwards hated German" he liked his German teacher, and 1t was pleasant to look at her when that glow came upon her face.
