In all branches of the military service, infantry, cavalry and artillery, the same symbols of insignia of rank* are used. The corporal, at the bottom of the scale of officers, is distinguished from the private by the chevron, consisting of two bars on the right sleeve. In the case of the sergeant, next higher in rank, the chevron is of three inverted V fehsped bars. All enlisted men, including these noncommissioned officers, wear on one side of their coats or blouses a bronze bvtton with the number of their organization and in relief crossed rifles for the infantry, crossed sabers for the cavalry and crossed cannon for the artillery. Coast and field artillerymen may be distinguished by the fact that in case of the former, in addition to the cannon, there is a shell at point of the intersection of the cannon. The second lieutenant lowest in rank of the commissioned officers, may be distinguished from the enlisted man, despite the fact that he wears no insignia cn his shoulder straps, bv the gold mark: ig on his collar. That symbol, as in the case of the enlisted men, is of crossed rifles, sabers or cannon, according to the branch of service, and is worn by all regimental off oers. On the other side of the collar are the letters "TJ. S." in gold. Infantry officers may be distinguished from the enlisted men by the fact lhat the latter wear canvas leggings, while the officers have tin leather leggings. First lieutenants have a silver bar on their shoulder straps, while captains have two bars. 02 the field officers the major wears & gold leaf, the lieutenant colonel a silver leaf and the colonel a silver spread eagle. The brigadier general has one silver stai, and the major general has two silver 6tars. The campaign hats?broad brimmed felt hats?afford another clew ? V -1 xi ? tO U1G arm ro wmcn tut? weaiex uclongs. The nats of all enlisted men are alike, but the hat cord around the crown reveals by its color the branch of the service to which the man belongs. A blue cord signifies infantry, a yellow cord cavalry and a red cord artillery, either coast or field. The men of the quartermaster corps have buff, the engineer corps orange and white and the hospital corps maroon and white hat cords. Officers of all branches wear gold and black hat cords, the insignia on their shoulder straps being the only indication of their rank. The insignia of the quartermaster corps is a winged wheel crossed by a key and sword, of the engineer corps three turrets and of the signal corps crossed flags. There are a few other emblems, but these are the most important.?Exchange. Durability of 8teel. It has been shown that nearly all tbr. failures of steel occur very ear ly in its history. If a plate or bar of mild steel lasts for a year in service it may be trusted to last for many years. The most injurious thing is continual bending backward and forward, as in what is called the "panting" of a boiler end. As one authority puts it, steel has a somewhat "tumultuous youth/' but "in middle age it is trustworthy and in old age beyond reproach." In regard to corrosion there is difference of opinion, some holding that steel corrodes more readily than iron. Clearing the Complexion. Daily bathing and copious drinking of water have a magic effect upon the complexion in clearing blemishes and in imparting a delicacy of coloring which only a well flushed system can produce. Outdoor exercises are stimulating to various organs. Where sport is not available, tramping proves an excellent tonic, while the deep breathing lends color to the cheeks and sparkle to the eye. Sleep and rest are likewise magical beautiliers. They restore lost contour, fade out the jvriDkles and revive the complexion. Works Both Ways. ../-I ' -11 1 XL. xl "2>criDiets, xne aumor, Ba\3 ne drink* quantities of strong black coffee while writing a book/' "Wherein we have a curious example of cause and effect." "How is that?" "I would have to consume quantities of strong black coffee to keep from falling asleep while reading one of his books."?Exchange. Color of the Hair. The hair gets its coloring from an oily substance contained in the hair cells. This is dark brown in the case of dark hair and of a yellowish tint in the case of fair hair, the varying shades depending upon the quantity of coloring matter in the cells. When the hair begins to get gray it is a sign that its coloring substance is getting uced up. r ?% COFFINS AN A large and varied assc Automobile Hearse Horse-Dray Experienced Sei Day 01 Kingstiree H Phonea 35.
