r eiy ta,ire important when on the

in the field, if be has to be car

'•■•t. he becomes an utter encum
brance.
1: is frr this reason that the phys
ical examinations' are now so exacting,
in order to weed out all those predis

■ o-ns. Yet it is not necessary for
a i in to lie actually sick for him to

• i.g purposes. turn a six-foot soldier
into an invalid.
in 'tie first place, the shoes should
?,e fitted with special attention. They
*ui'l neither be too wide nor too
'hort. Sores and blisters should be
pr< mptly dressed during a halt. At
the end of the march the feet should
he bathed and dressed, and, if prac
ticable. the shoes should he changed.
A 'iddier should under no oircum
stan • s. however, go barefoot, for his
fet t would swell and give him in
ert ,'ed difficulty as soon as he starts
to march again.
«»ne of the points which cannot he
en.pl .sized too strongly is that water
should not be drunk on the march. A
' er may take an occasional swal
I- ' fr. m his canteen, rinse out his
mouth aud then expel the water, but
if he drinks outright—as he may do
freely at the end of the march—the
■ • sequences are disastrous.
»>ne National Guard regiment on the
Mexh an border last year started upon
j, six-mile march. The column was a
shining succession of uplifted onn
•eons. Before five miles had been cov
ered. 29 men were stretched out by the
r- : ls.de in collapse. Another Xu
• nal Guard regiment, in which the
t. • n drank without restraint on a hot
march—even scooping up water from
«. lost approximately two hun
dred out <>f the column on that day.
A soldier should never sleep on the

r - - poncho, or at least his blanket,
t • *h him. and. whenever possible
a ted of straw or leaves beneath pon
< ‘ o . r blanket. If the dampness ol
*1 e son :ered his system, he would
< utraot eold and rheumatism and be
« me. as with all sick men, a heavy
drag uf(on his organization.
Just as it is essential, for the sake
of his health, that a soldier keep scru
pui usly clean, so for the protection ol
The general health, a camp or barracks
r rjst also he rendered immaculate. All
trash, even small pieces of paper
should be swept from the floor of the
tent or quarters, or “policed” from the
company street. For trash breeds in
sects and insects carry disease. All
p<« is and damp places near the camp
should be drained, so that mosquitoes
may have no place to multiply. For
this reason soldiers sire supplied with
mosquito bars, ns a protection against
purveyors of fever. All camp refuse
is either buried in a sink or burned in
an incinerator.
THE SOLDIER AND HIS COM
RADES.
If the new soldier, before joining the
colors, has had everything much his
own way at home, the first thing that
he will discover when he goes to camp
is that he counts for just one individ
ual in his squad.
While in the family circle he may
have t>een 1<X» per cent important in
all matters relating to himself, in camp
he is simply one of eight men who oc
cupy the same tent. Theoretically, the
new soldier may know that he should
obey officers and noncommissioned of
ficers. including the corporal who lives
In his tent: but what he may not real
ize Is that in all questions not involv
ing authority from above, he is also
cir< umscribed by the rights and privi
leges of others. The rights and con
venience of others as well as his own
must be thoroughly fixed in his mind.
It most be a process of giving and tak
ing all down the line.
The ratio of the rights and conven
iences of others to his own. in fact, is
nt«>ut seven to one. Eliminating the
corporal, whose position in the tent is
official and paternal, the new soldier is
entitled to his share of the common
rights and privileges—no more—and
must ungrudgingly perform his share
of the common work—no less.
If the new soldier fails to conform
to these rules of conduct, not only will
te be disciplined with odious fags and
b ’alls by the corporal, but he will find
that his tentmstes instinctively league
themselves against him. They watch
fur every opportunity to make life
irksome for him. ingeniously piling the
.«<vrk uj-on him in deft ways which they
will discover; and. if he is incorrigible,
the y will find a chance (whether it is
prohibited or not) to toss him up in a
blanket, or send him through a squad
spanking machine. A squad spanking
machine operate.; with slats. And if
the new soldier has rendered himself
obnoxious in the tent, he will find that
the corporal, if he does nor actually
a-'ist in this treatment, will at least
sanction it.
In short, it is the easiest thing in the
True Economy.
True economy does not of itself de
fend on the amount you are able to
retain in the pockett>ook. You have got
to spend and spend lavishly to get
enough to live on. The economy lies not
In the amount you spend, but in what
you get for your money on its rela
tion to your total purchasing ability.
The purchase must meet a need and
make returns in ber-clits or the invest
ment is not economic. " hen you come
to look over your yearly outlay you
vtU find thlttf* tba: have returned you
i no direct benefit. There are other '
things unpurchased that would have
been helpful to you. Therein lies the
real economy or lack of it. Real
economy looks into the future for an
equation of purchase prices.—Grit.
The Morning After.
Neighbor—Your husband pleased
with election?
She—Well, sort of. You see, if
John’s side had won, he couldn’t kick,
and John wouldn’t like that,”_Judge!
wnr'd for the pampered nnd self-cen
tered new soldier from a home where
he has been spoiled to get himself “in
j bad.” Once “in bad,” it is a long, ar
duous and contrite process to get out.
And. discovering himself “in bad,” if
he does not immediately begin to re
form. he will find that he is a marked
man, not only in his own squad, but
to the squads on either side of him.
and at length become the butt of the
whole company. In that case, his days
and nights will be made wretched for
him.
But if the new soldier, from the
start, is cheerful, agreeable, alert, will
ing at all times to help in policing the
tent—keeping his own effects in order
and the common space and property
clean—always ready to respond to de
tails, and never forgetful of the fact
that he is but one of seven privates
with equal duties and rights, he will
have nothing to worry about from his
. companions.
HOW TO DISTINGUISH RANK.
It would be useless for the new soldier
to know the courtesies he must pay to
rank unless he knows how to distin
guish such rank. He must know the
marking which designate the officer
and the noncommissioned officer, and
he must also know the general symbols
| of the service.
The corporal, the lowest rank of
j noncommissioned officer, wears a pri
j vate’s uniform, with chevrons on his
arm. A corporal's chevrons consist of
two parallel stripes of cloth in the
shape of a triangle without a base,
with slightly curving sides. The chev
rons, in the olive drab uniform, are
of a different shade of brown, while
on the bine army uniform they are of
the color which distinguishes the cor
poral's particular branch of the serv
ice.
The sergeant, next in rank, wears
chevrons of three stripes; while The
first sergeant, chief noncommissioned
officer of the company, wears a chev
ron of three stripes, with a square in
the center.
The second lieu'-mant. in olive drab,
is marked by the i! (Terence between an
officer's and a private’s uniform—that
is. he wears leather or wool puttees,
instead of canvas leggings; there is
a stripe of brown braid around the ( tiff
of his coat, and he wears the officers’
hatband, a snake-cord of black and
gold strands. The first lieutenant
wears one silver bar on each shoulder.
The captain ha> two silver bars on
each shoulder. The major has a gold
leaf, the lieutenant colonel a silver
leaf. The colonel is marked by a sil
ver eagle, and the brigadier general by
one silver star on each shoulder. The
major general (the highest nnk at
present in our active service) is desig
nated by two silver stars.
The officers' insignia presents a
somewhat different appearance on
dress and full-dress uniforms, al
though the marks remain the same, hut
as the new soldier who goes into
camp now is likely to see nothing hut
the field-service uniform, it would be
confusing to burden his mind with a
further description of officers' shoulder
I straps.
It is essential, however, that he
should know the colors of at least the
three great branches of the service—
infantry, cavalry and artillery. The
; infantryman in the field uniform wears
i a blue hat cord, which may be seen at
a considerable distance; the cavalry
man wears a yellow hat cord, and ar
tilleryman red. A troop of cavalry
rides with a guidon, a yellow flag, on
which the letter and regiment of The
particular unit appears in white. The
buttery of artillery rides with a red
guidon, similarly inscribed,

Obeahmen Are Mercenary.
The stock-in-trade of the Obeah
men is as bizarre as their inventive
minds. In their magic bags they car
ry about with them ground bones
of the dead, needles and black thread
rubbed with tallow, a looking-glass,
cards, powder, quicksilver, and an
evil-smelling gum reputed to be of
the devil. By ringing the changes
on these mixtures they work their
wonders and impose upon their vic
tims. Curing diseases of the mind
and of the body is merely a side is
sue with them. Protecting fruit
gardens and chicken runs are their
specialty. One thing they have in
common — that is, the mercenary
habit. They sell their “power” to the
highest bidder. Consequently, as the
nigger's wealth, so his health and
prosperity. All that the Obeahmen
stipulate is that payment must be
made according to the magnitude of
the miracle to be wrought. They are
accredited with having knowledge of
secret African bush poisons.. But
this is an exaggeration. When they
j have recourse to this desperate ex
j treme they are content to use arsenic
j rat-poison, or finely powdered glass.
Cyclones and Tornadoes.
A cyclone, in technical parlance, is
any general storm. In popular but not
definitely unscientific parlance it is the I
type of storm represented by the hurri
cane or typhoon—a whirlwind with a
diameter of from 50 to 100 miles. It

interesting article on the damage j
wrought by insects and the increasing
and successful warfare carried on
against insects by birds, certain nni- j

"It has been estimated." says the s
