The routine of camp life has been
established and with a few interrup-
I tions will probably be continued with-
out great variation. The schedule calls
for rising at 5:45. An assembly and
I roll call follows at 6:00. Then comes
15 minutes of physical exercise. The
first mess call for the day sounds at
6 30. At 7:15, all who wish to see a
I ^tor for any reason, repair to the
I hospital for that purpose. Up to this
time, the sick list has been compara-

cleaning tents—police work, it is call

I eages in infantry drill. Then the blue
denims are donned and artillery drill
commences. The boys are begining to
display a great interest in the artil
lery work and are quite eager to learn
I how to manipulate the big guns. At
11:00 the morning drill period ends
and the next call of importance is
again the mess call, at 12:00. Artil
lerydrill occupies the time from 1:00
to 3:00 and then the work for the day
I is practically ended. At 5:00 p.m.
another mess call is sounded at and
I 5:45 comes retreat and the final roll
call of the day. At 9:00, tatoo is
sounded and thereafter quiet should
prevail. Call to quarters comes at
10:45 and taps at 11:00 p.m.
On Thursdays, the program is var
ied by devoting the afternoon to
athletics and the evening to drill. On
I last Thursday afternoon, a baseball
game was played between 10th Com
pany and 7th Company, of Medford.
7th Company won, 8 to 6. Baseball
fans consider the result very favor
able inasmuch as the Medford boys
were equipped with uniforms and
spiked shoes whereas the Tillamook
nim played in their regular uniforms
I and shoes. Another game will be
played next Thursday. On Saturdays,
I the work for the day is finished at
noon, the greater part of the morning
being devoted to inspection of eqtiip-
| ment and quarters. At this inspection, I

, soldiers, and the tents themselves

| The work during the past week was
broken into by an inspection of teeth. I
| All, including the officers, were re- ,
quirt'd to submit to this examination
and a number of the "undesirable”
molars were ordered removed. On
Sunday several of the non-commis
sioned officers received a "shot in
the arm,” or typhoid propbylaxsis
vaccination, to be more technical. To
this and to the vaccination against
small-pox, all must submit.
Quite a number of the boys have
been detailed to special duty about
the post. Privctes Imlah and Bur- I

PALACE OF THE CZARS.
Bea uties of Tsarskoe Selo,
Peter the Great.
Built
by
Tsarskoe Seto, the city some fif
teen miles south of Petrograd where
the former czar was accustomed to
spend the spring and where the peas
ants seized the burning preserve of
the demised Nicholas, is a beautiful
place.
The city now has a population of
30,000. It was an lnaignilicant village
when Peter the Great presented it to
his consort, Catherine I., and liegan
the construction tliere of the great im
perial palace. The palace was com
pleted Just a year before Peter's death
and was greatly beautified by «his
daughter, Elizabeth Petrovna, in later
years.
Some of the most magnificent royal
apartments in Europe are found in this
palace, notably the bedroom of Marie
Alexandrovna, consort of Alexander
IL, with its opalescent glass walls, its
columns of purple glass and its moth
er-of-pearl inlaid tloor. The walls of
another chamber are paneled with am
ber; a third apartment is decorated
with silver; another has wonderful ta
bles and chandeliers which glow with
soft light of lapis lazuli, and there is a
ballroom which glitters with gold and
mirrors.
With all these sumptuous apartments
at his disposal, Nicholas II. seldom oc
cupied any of them, but preferred to
live In a modest building no larger
than the country home of the average
well to do American.
The extensive gardens and parks,
embracing an area twenty-eight times
as large as the United States capitol
grounds, are among the chief beauties
of Tsarskoe Selo, picturesque grot
toes, artistic bridges, charming arbors
and delightful swan ponds are to lx»
found on all sides, with here and there
an artificial ruin which captivates the
eye and quickens the Imagination.
Beyond the Imperial gardens and
grounds the streets of the village are
broad and straight. There are several
barracks and hospitals and eight
churches.—National Geographic Society

GETTING THE FEET WET.
Th« Part th« Sidewalk Plays In Colds
and drip Epidamlca.
That a close relationship exists be
tween sidewalks and grip epidemics
Is asserted in Good Health by Martin
Nevins. Grip aiqj colds, says Mr. Nev-
Lis, are germ diseases. Germs are
floating about us in the air. We
breathe them in by the thousand. “But
they are cowardly fellows. Once they
get Inside a healthy body they retreat."
He goes on:
'*1
“It is only when one thing or anoth
er disturbs our health equilibrium that
the ‘bugs' manage to gain a foothold
In our system. It may lie injudicious
eating, it may be lack of fresh air, but
most frequently it I* some kind of ex
posure—getting the feet wot—that lays
the fortress open to them.
"It is not at all hard to get your feet
wet. And that is where the sidewalk
comes in. The ordinary sidewalk Is a
right hand assistant when you want a
cold foot bath. It is built flat, without
any slope to drain it.
“Tlie condition is aggravated If there
occurs a natural depression In the side
walk. The water runs into it and
stands until it is dried or is frozen.
The natural result is n harvest of grip
epidemics and any number of colds,
bronchitis ami lung troubles. And tu
berculosis, too—this disease can often
lie traced to sidewalks, since it usually
starts with some simple lung affection.
"We must stop building flat side
walk» and make them convex Instead,
so they will drain easily, and elevate
them slightly alsrve the level of thu
ground."
Th« Graataat Evil.
The Persian author Saadi tells a sto
ry of three sages a Greek, an Indian
and a Persian—who In the presence of
the Persian monarch debate«! this ques
tion: Of all evils incident to humanity
which is the greatest? The Grecian
declared, “Old age oppressed with pov
erty;" tlie Indian answer«»!, "Pain with
Impatience,” while the Persian, bow
lug low, made answer, "The greatest
evil, O king, that 1 can conceive Is the
couch of death without one good deed

Th» Bow and Arrow,
The first mention of the bow and ar
row is found in the book of Gemwis,
where It is written that Ishmael, the
son of Abraham, “dwelt in the wilder
ness and became an archer.” “A bow
shot," too, Is mentioned as a measure
of distance. In the sculptured slates
found at Kborsabad and Nineveh rep

Rules For Frying.
First, every:Ung must be as dry as
