They have been serving under tho American Relief ad ministration and have conducted food kitchens and distributing stations In all parts of Poland outside Warsaw. In all the relief work being done in Europe, that of tho Polish Grays has been unique because nil the girls, though sent from America, were either born In Poland or nre of Pollslv paren tage. When tho need for social serv ice In their country became acute many girls of Polish descent answered the call of the Young Women's Chris tian Association for overseas service and enlisted In -the preliminary train ing course thnt was given In several cities of the United Stntcs. From this group thirty girls wore chosen nnd sent to Poland whore, since 1018, they have been cnrlng for tho children of tho country. The distribution of clothing Iirs taken them into nil parts of Poland. They are now spending their entire time In arranging for tho feeding of children this winter. Groups of them travel to strategic centers In outlying districts whero they sot up distributing stations, receive supplies, prepar moals, arrange for Impartial dlstrlbu. tlon and train helpers to contlnuo the work when they are sent on to the next town.

Old Doctor Jones, who ohce prac ticed medicine In n Now Jersey town, was known everywhere as a notorious ly bad spoiler. He slipped up on this simplest words, nnd people wondered hov ho managed to write proscrip tion's, ospcclnlly In medical" Lntln, so thnt they could bo rend and under stood. Though the "Doc," ns he wns cnlled, could not spell, he was, never- ! tholess, nccountcd n good physician nnd his patients swore by him. He ', sent his proscriptions regularly .to n ! certain druggist In the town becauso 1 this mnn wns the only druggist who , could rend them. How tho druggist ' 'succeeded In doing it was a mystery to every one. Everything went well for u long time, then one day tho druggist wns taken 111 and died. His funeral was largely attended and Doctor Jones wns one of the principal mburners. What will become of "Doc" now? Who will he get to reap his prescrip tions? were questions on every one's lips. It was pretty generally agreed thnt the future looked black for tho physician, but this mnn who spelled rheumatism "rumntlz" was not to bo discouraged. Tho day after the obse quies of tho druggist the following announcement, printed In long-hnnd, appeared In the window of tho phar macy: "Dr. Jones has botght this drug store. Ho will contlnuo the bis pess nnd fill proscrlpshons hlssolf." RABBIT'S INSTINCT AT FAULT Probably Would Have Died in Trap From Which It Might Have Escaped With Ease, I hnvo seen n bird tethered to Its breeding place Its feet held fast by the hnlrs wldch lined Its nest but, until the other dny I had never known or heard of u rnbblt being cnught In n snnre of lis own devising, writes nn observer of nature. In nn old pas ture In Middle Tevlotdale. where the grass grows runic beside tho old -haw-thorn hedge which fences the field, a rabbit was soon to be struggling as If striving to escape from a smire. On going up to the spot, I found thnt the hind legs of tho rabbit were firmly bound together with "ropes" of grow ing grass. Apparently the little rnp tlve had been rolling itself among the grass, and, In the process, hud un wittingly woven Its own bonds. Tho rabbit had evidently been a prisoner for some days, being thin In body rind feeblo from the effects of Its-fruitless struggles for liberty, while tho ground around the tufts of grass to which It was fastened wns closely cropped, though seemUigly instinct had never suggested that It. might have oaten nwny its "chnlns."

Tli - dragon m ,vcn , I'okln hid. den .behind a hill. ..'; m the Winter pal aeo grounds, It is a wall perhaps 20 feet high and inn Ioiik. rated completely with tile insi i represent nine large-size dragons In lins lellef, of various colors yellow, purple, buff, maroon, orange dancing na.vly above emerald billows iigulust a pale blue sky. Mos-t sculptured Chinese dragons are lifeless, angular boasts; but Here there Is an almo.si un-Chlnose vigor and audacity in tho slicing and twist of the lithe bodies. They leap, whirl, lunge, anil writhe until the spectator stops back, half afraid that they will coiMe tumbling off the .screen. Striking at the unwary with their sturdy eluws. There are, I believe, critics) who teach that plastic art should never under take to porlniy moments of activity. If this be correct, the dragons stnnd condemned ; but If the sculptor may o'r rightly give us life In Its vivid, uioxing moments, here Is a master piece. Kxfhniiuo.
