WITH THE FRENCH ARMY AT THE FIJO.VT, Aug. 6 (By Mall.) Young girls and women are the prln-' elpal workers In the factories where! bombs, hlghexploslve shells, hand grenades and similar man-killing de- vices are manufactured." It strikes one as odd that frail women should I be making the terrible engines of war! yet they seem to like their Job, en- . .lit utv ins nun null a lllUIIUUUj fervor which one Is coming more and I'-, Expert Rifle Shots Demonstrate Skill ' A large crowd gathered yesterday afternoon on the hillside near the golf links to marvel at the difficult rifle, pistol and shotgun shots made by Mr. and Mrs. Adolph Topperweln, representatives of the Winchester Arms Co. The exhibition was one well worth watching as a demonstra tion of what can be accomplished by a combination of modern arms, uner ring eyes and long eexperlence. Mrs Topperweln was just about as good us her husband with the fire arms. About the only shots which the latter made that she did not dup- llcate were those In which ho turned somersaults or stood on his head. The! tw o broke apples, wooden blocks, I marbles, balls, potatoes, eggs and va-j rlous other objects thrown In the air, using rifles, pistols and shotguns. ! (shots were made from all positions and under all nature Of handicaps. One of the most difficult Bhols made Was by Mr. Topperweln when ho fired a .12, ejected the shell Into the air and hit It with a second shot. I Without the guidance of lines, ho also! shot a perfect head of Uncle Sam In J a tin plate. this latter sum 1 1 5,013 is for the re tirement of Indebtedness, Included In the budget is SI r00 for parks.

Aero Club Is Organized. SEATTLE, Wash., Sept. 8. An nouncing that its object would be serving for military and naval de fense and promoting aerial commerce the Aero Club of the Northwest was organised here, the incorporators In cluding business men and naval offi cers. Two large machines, high powered enough for military service, are already owned by members and two similar machines are building here. The officers Include Captain R. E Coon lx. commandant at the Puget Sound navy yard, and Naval Con structor G. C. Wostervolt. W. E Hoeing, of Seattle, Is president. more to associate with the country women of Jeane d'Arc. Out here, surprisingly near the fir ing line, there Is a steel and Iron works which In times of peace made pots and pans for the cooking of friend potatoes, the boiling of cab bage and the stewing of ragouts. Now the military are In charge and mor targ from 60 mlllmeters to 8 Inches are the factory's .product, those and the projectiles hurled from their muzzles. Also several varieties of grenades, bombs and petards are supplied here. The "lemon" Is one of the newest and most effective of the many brands of hand grenades. It Is like wise the simplest. It la made In the shape of a lemon, from which It gets Its nickname, and at one end la pro vided with a sort of button with coll spring a button working on the same principal as the one you use In ringing for Marie to serve the coffee. This button Is harder to op erate, of course, as It sets off the grenade when pushed In and were it too easy on the trigger It would be too dangerous to operate. probably will not be pleawd to learn that the government has Just spent $6.00U making the fog-horn at that point much louder. The Commerce department says the Temple of Agriculture grounds at Peking, China, are being transformed Into "a beau tiful park with tennis courtB and Illy ponds." The ponds are for the balls to go into. Mr. Consul Anderson reports that twenty tons of Chicago but ter have arrived at Hongkong on their dash to South China via San Francisco and Sydney. There seems no good reason why the Chicago butler market In South China should not be very strong. - t American plumbers are glad to note that tubes and piping are being made of solidified glue.

Dr. House is a lecturer, not an evangelist. He is an author of country-wide reputation and a speaker of force who grips his audience. In his address last evening, Dr. House said of "Destroyers and Build ers of Health " "Worry is discount ing possible future sorrows so that the Individual may have present mis ery." Worry is weakness to the brain, destruction to the body. Wor ry can be cured, not by the will but FACTS, TOR SUFFERERS. Pain results from Injury or con gestion.

Of Canal Could Carry Fleet. WASHINGTON, Sept. 8. Proof that the entire present main Ameri can battleship fleet, made up of four divisions of five ships each, and a flagship, a total of 21, could be pass ed through the Panama canal in one day has been afforded by the handl ing of the Naval Academy practice squadron In the canal locks on Its way to and from the Panama-Pacific ex position. The squadron, composed of the battleships Missouri, Ohio, and Wis consin, the largest warships which have so far used the canal, were put through the locks at Pedro Miguel and Mlraflores. the Missouri and Ohio simultaneously In parallel, with the Wisconsin directly in the rear. Post If You Examine A Flake of the New I oasiie You can see little white "puffs" on each flake a distinguishing characteristic of this new food. An entirely new method of making these New Toastiea brings out all the delightful corn flavour; and gives them a body and firmness that don't mush down in cream or milk But let the taste tell. Eat some dry, p'ust as they come from the package, compare, their delicious taste with that of any "corn flakes" you have eaten and you can understand why New Post Toasties are called Superior Corn Flakes Your grocer has them now. the button about as you would open a bottle of soda-pop. Here Is how the hand grenades are made: First the shell Is cast, a shell some quarter of an Inch thick. It Is In dented all over to Insure Its bursting Into Innumerable pieces when ex ploded. The average number of fragments, determined after careful tests. Is 220. the fragments being about the size of the tip of your lit tle finger, of very rough edges and, at short distances these weapons are never used otherwise capable ofi piercing a two-Inch plank. They make very dangerous wounds. These cast-Iron shells, shaped like a lemon, are next cleaned; outside by brushes wielded by women, inside by a revolving apparatus resembling an egg-beater. Tills Inside cleaning Is to prevent grit or particles of Iron re mainlng to cause a possible spark and consequent explosion while being filled with chedlte later. Girls pack the grenades with the explosives which resembles sulphur or light brown sugar. A round piece of paraflned paper is put over the 1 opening and with a plug Is forced down Into the grenade's neck to the" point where the lemon begins to swell. While this Is being done the "stop per" Is assembled by other girls. Fiom the wood turning department come the wooden plugs which close the grenade and contain the operat ing button. A hole runs through the middle and through this passes a Bickford time fuse. At the upper end is a cap something like the cap of an old-time muzzle loading gun which Is exploded by the push-button mentioned above. At the bottom of the fuse Is the detonator. The vari ous operations of assembling this ap paratus are performed by girls and women, some quite young, some old, grandmotherly and bespectacled. Each girl or woman has but one operation tc perform however simple they-may be. One Inserts the fuse, another ad Justs the cap, a third the detonator, a fourth makes the joints between the fuse and detonator safe by means of sealing wax and so on, the. stop pers" flowing smoothly down this human stream rapidly and without let-up until at last they pour Into the grenades stream for final adjust ment. A hole Is made In the tightly pack ed chedlte with which the grenade la filled and Into his hole the detonator Is passed. The grenade Is now near lug completion and becomes extreme ly dangerous. Should One be drop ped, or the button of one hit against any hard object with force, an ex plosion results within four and a half seconds, the time these special gren ades are set for. Consequently from now on. until the grenades are pack ed for shipment, all workmen sit be side a barricaded sto-ie and brick oven which a bomb which has met with an accident ma; be tossed be fore It explodes. In this strange war hand grenades have" become of more importance In ninny Instances than rifles and all along the front special corps of "grenadiers" have been formed. There are being drilled In their spe cial work dally. "Don't tell where you saw us mak ing grenades,'' was the final Injunc tion of the colonel of artillery act ing as superintendent of the works.
