OBSERVER NUMBERS IN A r-ArtADE. Easy to Estimate Them According t United States Army Rules. , It Is remarkable how. the! average civilian overestimates the Dumber of persons In a parade.' Take, for exam ple, the recent suffragist parade In New York. It was said that there were 15,000 women In line, and aouie enthusiasts put It even at 20,000. But It is easy to estimate such numbers approximately. Here la the rate aa laid down In the "Field Service Regu lations" of the United States army: "The strength of a body of troops may be estimated from the length of time It takes to pass a given point. Assuming that Infantry In column of fours occupies half a yard per mau. cavalry one yard per trooper and artil lery In single column per gun or cais son, a given point would be passed In I lry at a wam, 200 cavalry at a trot and five guns or caissons." - - Allowing for spacing between compa nies, battalions and regiments, all of which is according to mathematical rule. It takes a regiment of 1,000 men divided luto battalions Just ten min utes to pass, or at the rate of 0,000 un hour. And this supposes no breaks In the line. These rules, It must be remembered, are for trained soldiers used to a long step and to keeping up wlthont strug gling. No civilians, ever, militant suf fragette, ever have kept up or could keep up this pace, and In the women's parade many of the organizations walked li o'umn of twos.

The cut u.iide by the surgeon should always be kept absolutely free from germs. If Infection occurs we know that some oue bus blundered. Acclden. tal cuts, on the other band, ara almost Invariably infected. The germs of disease are every where. No matter how. small the cut may be or how brief It exposure to the air, germ ara almost certain to enter. If an accidental cut 1 to heal quickly and well all germs must be carefully removed at the first dress ing. '.'.. When we consider how many are the way In which a cut may become Infected we can understand why such precautions are necessary. Infection Is often Introduced by the very Imple ment that make the wound. Only surgeon as sterilized instruments. A knife or a pair of scissors or a piece of glass or crockery Is almost certain to plant germs in the furrow It plows. Germs may also enter from the cloth ing, from the hands of whoever rushes to help, from the first piece of cloth or handkerchief used to stanch the flow of blood or from the water used tor the first washing. Since the avenues of danger are so numerous. It is safest to assume that Infection has occurred. It follows that every family should understand some of the simplest methods of steriliza tion. Heat Is the simplest of all. The mother of a family should keep a supply of soft lnen rps that baye beeif thoroughly boiled. She should keep them not on an open shelf with towels or other cloths, but done, up In a ?a"refull.vcTosed oiled paper bag or protected from the nlr In some other equally effective way. For washing the wound she should use only water that has been boiled. When the doe tor comes be will add some kind or chemical antisepsis, nnd It will be proved once more that a clean cut can do nothing but heal. Youth's Com panlon. ... CHANGEABLE CHICAGO.

Chlcaqu and Chicago, he being the first to give the letters the arrangement which finally was settled upon as tbe authorized spelling. Charlevoix gave the same spelling In 1721. Iu the Greenville treaty las revised) it is Chi kagu. "In an old -deed filed away among the archives of the Chicago Historical society, as applied to the river or creek 117741. it Is plainly written Chl cagou. The word was the Indian word for gurlic or wild onion and signified to the red men strong, mighty, power ful,, courageous. "In 1723 a chief hore the name Chi cago (under some one of its many spellings), who went to Paris and was made much of by kings and princes." "Watches" on Board Ship. On board all ships a series of "watches" are established, so that work Is shared equally among the sail ors. To aid this object also tbe crews are divided iuto two divisions, star board and port A ship's day com mences at noon, and there are seven watches. The watch which Is on dutv In the forenoon one day bus tbe after noon next day, and the men who have four hours' rest one night have eiglu hours tbe next. This Is the reason for having "dog watches," which are made by dividing the hours between 4 p. m and 8 p. ui. into two watches. Living on Rubber. The rubber slug Is one of the many pests of rubber plantations. It attacks the young trees and feeds on the Juice oozing from the cuts. Doubt having been cast on the suggestion that any animal could subsist on nihlier. h snucerful of Juice was placed Pefn-M some rubber slugs, w hich lapped it up like a cat luppiug up milk Scientists have come to the conclusion that tills sing contains some nihler digesting ferment as a gastric Juice.
