Men are hctng demobilized In mil lions. hut Mheilx In hundreds of mil* Hons. A shell has all the points that go to make a good servant and a reliable messenger, It Is quick, punctual, cer tain, aecurtite, is not unromnntlc. can travel In all weather, can carry a heavy load 5. 10, 20 or 75 miles, brooks no outsiders on Its Journey, and Is. moreover, available In such Im mediate and abundant supply that It Is a little short of an act of folly to relocate to the scrap heap or war mu seum, without fair Investigation of Ua potentialities, our vast and wohder* ful array of artillery. Every one Is familiar with the sys tem of collecting and receipting cus tomers' payments Jn big shopa.

Here 1.8 an army of messengers, each of whom Is a rolling ball. Do not think thnt my suggestion that shMls should bo used likewise Is altogether new. When a brigade Is "going over th? top" one of the gun teams of the Stokes mortar battery Is sometimes told oft" for a "ins sterious purpose." They havo been nttached, with their gun, to headquarters, and supplied with a strango-looktng kind of shell that unscrews to receive messages, which they lire to battalion headquar ters across the barrage. The shell con tains a smoke cartridge, and when It falls the stream of smoke shows the position so that the battalion signal ers can dash from their covyr to pick It up. 1 This method was Improvised to meet certain 'contingencies; It contains, how-' ever, the. possibilities of infinite exten sion and elaboration. Instend of the casual Stokes gun, Imagine that we arc, going to use a 9.2 howitzer, which is accurate to a yard in 12 miles? so accurate Indeed that, a shell could be depended upon to arrive at the ap pointed spot without the aid of a smoke stream to advertise its position ? and can carry not a hastily scribbled hot'e, but h mall of 2,000 or 8,000 let ters. / " I Air Current to Grade Coal. An interesting method of grading fine coal by means of an air current Is In use at an English colliery. The coal Is delivered to the wnshery by a bucket elevator and discharged onto shaking screens. Tfye grading appa ratus Is fixed Immediately over the delivery chute of the elevator, the mixed coal allowed to flow over a hinged weir plate. Immediately, under this plat?. Js an orlfi'cd through which a powerful current of" Air Is -drawn by means of a centrifugal- fan. -The size of the opening Is- capable of ad justment by means of a sliding plate. The -passing stream of coal is brought nearer to or kept farther from the section by adjusting the hinged weir plate, so that any desired proportion of small coal can be drawn off. A deflecting plate is fitted into the re ceiver, which serves to throw the "larger pieces of coal to the bottom; the fine dust, passing with the air . through the fan, is finally collected In cyclone separators. Sir Douglas Halg's Popularity. The prime factor in Sir Douglas ?-Haig's great popularity among the British armies was undoubtedly the interest he always showed in the boy soldiers. During the many inspections In France It was the invariable prac tice of nearly all generals ? Kitchener and French included ? to hurry along the ranks until they came to the old soldiers with the rows of campaign "ribbons" on their breasts. Sir Douglas Haig always singled out the youngest boys for his attention. You could see them flush and stammer and straight en up with pride at being noticed by the commander in chief. Nor did he ever omit In these early days his spe cial word of thanks "to all those who have left their benches, shops, and offices to help us professional soldiers to see It through." Incidence of Flu. An Interesting example of the inci dence of influenza was given by 8lr St. Clair Thomson. In a sanitarium for consumptives seven miles from the nearest town there was an ont break of influenza. There were 100 consumptives and about 100 on the do mestic^ staff. Among those of the con* sumptives who caught the disease none had any complications, and none died; several of the cases among the staff proved fata). Sir St Clair Thomson said that the consumptives probably escape because the systems were already organized to fight disease and they could be considered in the same position as vaccinated people.
