This afternoon, everything being quiet, I invited the neighboring sec tion commander to come and spend a little time with me. In the trenches we rarely have anything to drink but wine and coffee, and, by the way of special feast, I decided to make some chocolate. So I sent for a canteen of water and poured some of the pre cious fluid into my pan and devoutly emptied in the chocolate and sugar. It was simmering gently on my braz ier, and I was just on the point of adding condensed milk, when someone called me from the outside. It was my orderly coming to see if I needed anything.

TURN FROM SAVAGE TO SAINT Wonderful Transformation of Fiji Islander*, Which Are Soon to Be Visited by Roosevelt. When Colonel Roosevelt pays his an nounced visit to the Fiji islands in February he will find the natives much different from what they were only a comparatively short time ago. Today the Fiji Islanders are model citizens ; once they were the most abhorrent creatures known to civilization. In his work. “How Christ Conquered Fiji,” Rev. D. L. Leonard tells us something of the Fijians of a genera tion or two ago. He says: “Physically and intellectually they rank among the foremost In the South seas, but before Christianity wrought its astounding miracles of transforma tion they had no equals for brutality, licentiousness and utter disregard for human life. The world over their name was a synonym for all that is atro cious, inhuman and demoniacal. It was a part of their religion to be as cruel ns possible toward their enemies and to slay them with nameless and horrible torture was a positive de light. “They had a habit of massacring all shipwrecked sailors or other strange visitors to their shores. Few Fijians died a natural death or lived to old age, for the feeble and the aged were esteemed worse than useless mem bers of society and by artificial means were hastened to their graves. In fanticide was so common that two- thirds of the children perished at the hands of their parents. "When a chief built a house and holes were dug for the posts a man was flung into each one to be burled alive. When a war canoe was launched living men were used for human roll ers, and their bruised and torn bodies were afterward roasted and eaten. Hu man flesh was eaten by preference, as well as from hatred of their enemies slain in battle. In one district the en tire population was kept to be de voured by their more powe rful neigh bors. A chief would send to a neigh bor or ally a roasted victim carefully wrapped and escorted by a procession. After one war the victory was cele brated by cooking 100 human bodies for a feast. One chief set up a stone to commemorate each time ho had played the cannibal, and 872 of these tokens were counted by a missionary, Rut the Fijians have since passed under the mild yoke of Christianity and the savage in them has yielded to the subduing influences of the Gospel of mercy and peace. Hard Water Good for Rheumatics. That hard water—meaning a water that contains two hundred parts in the million or more of lime—is better than soft or distilled water for drinking purposes is asserted in the New York Medical Journal by Dr. Frank Leslie Rector of New York. It never con tains enough lime to do harm, but the little it does contain is highly bene ficial to persons with a tendency to rheumatism, gout or hardening of the arteries. To get such a dose of lime as a doc tor would prescribe one would have to drink six gallons of hard water in 24 hours. A common glassful of such water contains about three-fourths of a grain of lime. It is an error to suppose, as many do, that hard water causes rheuma tism. gout, kidney diseases and arteriosclerosis, for these are the very troubles that are cured by the waters of such places as Kissingen, Nauheim and Saratoga, the benefit of which is In their alkaline content, and this Is principally lime.

Vast Resources of Siberia Are Unrivaled in Old World Siberia is destined one day to become the richest country in the world, for it has a natural wealth so diversified, and as yet almost untouched, that it no rival in the old world. How vast this wealth is is described by A. Kammer In La Nature. Before the war Siberia was produc ing from 1,000,000 to 1,300,000 tons of flour a year. As a grazing country it has no limits and it exports large quantities of leather, tallow and but ter. Its forests are almost inexhaus- tibie and it supplies furs to all the world. Its mineral wealth can only be guessed at, for the greater part of the country has never been prospected. But there are several enormous de posits of oil, that of Konznetz embrac ing about 30,000 square miles and esti mated to contain 920,000,000 tons of oil ; that of Irkutsk, estimated to con tain 250,000,000 tons, and those of the Ienisseisk and Siemipalatinsk. Some of these have as yet scarcely been touched. The Kouznetz basin possesses also great deposits of iron ore, estimated to contain 16,500,000 tons. Iron occurs in large quantities in many other re gions. Other metals that promise wealth to their exploiters are copper (5,600 tons of which were mined in 1913), gold, lead, zinc, manganese, wolfram, tin, antimony, cinnabar, mercury, sulphur, saltpeter, graphite, naphtha, quartz, sulphide and sulphate of soda, white clay and common salt.
