I wonder if the waiser’s sleep is
sound,
Or if in dreams that startle him
awake '
He hears dead voices issue from the
ground
And sees the ghosts of fallen hosts
that shake
Their grizzly fists before his staring
eyes;
I wonder if about the imperial bed
He does not feel a force malignant
rise
—The living curses of the murdered
dead!
I wonder if the kaiser's sleep is
sound,
Or if in eerie stretches of the night.
He faces Gcd in terrible affright,
The God he has blasphemed, the God
he crowned
With Prussian bays for Prussian
deeds of hate!
I wonder if he finds true rest in
sleep
W'hile little children moan and women
weep
Because his lust for empire waxed
too great!
He drew the sword and drenched the
world in blood;
He plunged mankind in agony pro
found;
I wonder if, amid this crimson flood,
The kaiser’s sleep is sound!

MILITARY MODELS TAKE
FASHION’S FIRST TRENCH.
NEW YORK, June 15.—Woman’s sar
torial world has capitulated to military
influence.
The surrender is most obvious in
outside garments like the “trench
coat,” the “submarine collar,” and
the "military cape.” But it is be
trayed, also in less conspicuous ways,
as in the case of military colors, for
instance, West Point grey and red,
or liberality in the matter of patch
pockets and belts, or unique cuff
facings, braidings and buttons.
Fashion, however, refuses to con
sider khaki the only material adap
ted to military models. One design,
which promises to be most popular has
and adjustable cape, which is held by
patent fasteners across the shoulder
beneath the collar. If a day proves too
warm, the wearer can take off the
cape without r emoving the jacket. The
detachable cape is usually about six
inches longer than the eoat.
For midsummer, the military cape is
made of sime stunning shade of cot
ton eponge—biege. military blue or
green—while the jacket and. skirt are
fashioned of plain white or cream
eponge, or a material figured in the
same color as the cape.
The "trench coat” is subject to
similar modifications and adaptations.
In its severest form, double or sin.
gle-breasted and with regulation
patch pockets, it makes a most at
tractive motoring garment. Elaborated
tor street wear, the pockets are clev
erly cut-in-one with a portion of the
coat, or are bulged out to give a mod
ified barred effect in a startling un
military manner.
New motor coats are cut shorter
than those of former seasons,' but
they are still made on voluminous lines,
ranging from 80 to 100 inches at the
hem.
Designers make no secret of the
military trend of coats for fall and
winter. They will vary in length from.
40 to 50 inches, will be very wide, and
topped with immense square collars
of fur or plush.

SAVE PEAS FOR WINTER
FY CANNING THEM NOW.
The only apparatus needed for home
canning is a ham boiler, a deep pre
serving kettle, or a clothes boiler with
a piece of galvanized wire netting cut
to fit the bottom. .Hither one of these
will make as good a canner as an ex
pensive one from the store and will
furnish the housekeeper with as many
canned products as she will find time
to put up during the summer. Which
ever vessel is chosen should be fur
nished with a top that the steam may
not escape easily, but may help in the
cooking of the products.
With this canner the garden peas
that are now' coming in in such abund
ance may be saved. Select pint jars
for peas, place them in the canner, in
which has been poured about three
inches of water. Let this water come
to a boil and boil the jars for not less
than eight minutes. This will thor
oughly sterilize them. See that the
i übbers are new and then put them
in a pan of boiling water for three
minutes. Re move the jars from the
canner and stand in a pan of hot wa
ter.
Grade your peas, keeping the young
ai d tender small peas in a different
bowl from the larger and older peas.
This grading is necessary if it is ex
pected to keep the peas from boiling.
Old peas require a much longer boil
ing period than the young and tender
onces.
Place small peas in a muslin sack
and plunge in boiling water one min
ute. (This is called blanching.) Older
peas must be blanched eight minutes.
Pour immediately into the sterilized
jars. Fill to within one-half inch of
the top, filling the spaces with hot wa
ter until the peas are covered. Add
one level teaspoonful of salt and one
level teaspoonful of sugar. Place rub
ber on jars, screw tops down tightly;
or if spring tops, spring lightly. Add
cold water to the boiling water in can
ner to prevent jars cracking. Placi
jars on wire netting in bottom of can
ner, put top on canner and when the
water begins to boil count time. After
half-hour push the spring down tight
ly on jars. By allowing the jars to
remain only party closed so that you
tiave exhausted the air and the tops
can be tightly closed with very little
fear of having the rubers blow’ out.
Young and tender peas must boil or
process, as it is called, forty-five min
utes. after the tops have been tightly
closed, and older peas one hour, or
half-hour after tops have been tightly
closed.
Peas belong to the class of vegeta
bles that must be processed or boiled
three days in succession, and after
the jars have been set aside to cool,
they must be placed in the canner on
the second day for another processing
of forty-five or sixty minutes. At this
second processing it is not necessary
to open the jars. Do not touch the
springs or tops; simply place in tepid
water, bring to a boil and process the
required length of time. This pro
cess must be repeated on the third day
The principle is this: AU active
bacteria are killed the first boiling
but the spores are not affected. In
the twenty-four hours between the first
and second processing these spores
develop into active bacteria. The sec
ond boiling kills them, but some spores
are so hardy that they do not develop

HUSBAND SMEARS OUT PEACE
WARANT FOR MRS. ADAMS
ATLANTA, Ga., June 15.—H. C.
Adams, husband of the woman who
shot and killed Captain E. J. Spratling,
o’ the Fifth Regiment Georgia National
Guard at Camp Harris near Macon
last tall, is not taking any chances on
her further careless use of a revolver,
and accordingly when she threatened
t > kill him if he didn't take the two
Adafns children out of the Southern
Christian Home, where they were plac
ed when she went to jail, he lost no
time in swearing out a peace warrant
and having her arrested. Her cas n
was postponed for final hearing until
June 20. pending an investigation by
the local charity organization.
Mrs. Adams was recently acquitted
by a Bibb county jury, at Macon, on a
murder charge for the killing of ( ap
tain Spratling. her defense being that
Captain Spratling, who was her phy
sician. had wronged her. Besides the
two children in the home in Atlanta
there is a third child born in the Bibb
county jail.

UNDERSEA TUNNEL
MAI BE REALIZED
LONDON, June 15.—One of the fond-1
est dreams of England’s engineers for
centuries, a tunnel beneath the Eng-I
lish channel, will probably be realized j
after the war.
Sir Francis Fox has recently enabled ;
the publication of an outline of how ■
such a tunnel, which, burrowing 100'
feet beneath the sea-floor, could dis.
gorge express and freight trains be
tween England and France, and re
move forever the menace of the sub
marine, can be constructed.
To drive a double tunnel through the
grey Cenomanian chalk, diverting it in
geniously at one point through the
gault, is today a simple feat of engi
neering, Sir Francis declared. Revolv- I
ing cutters, fixed in Greathead shields,!

moved from the face by high-speed [
endless belts, discharging directly Into
wagons.

trie ; rains are to bring and take a wav f
the workmen. Tn case such a tunnel
t
should be seized by a hostile force, a
water-lock, constructed to deal with
such an emergency, will enable adja
cent military authorities to flood it
with water at an instant’s notiec.
When the emergency is over the water
can be pumped out by electric power.
The English entrance to the tunnel
would be commanded by the Dover
forts and by men-of-war in Dover har

i Gaglio is today somewhere in France
, still getting revenge from the enemy
for the death of his son.
When war began the son marched
I away with his father’s old regiment.
[Before a month had passed the son
[ occupied a soldier’s grave in Belgium,
j The news soon reached the father,
i Without hesitation the red trousers and
ithe red fez of the Zouaves were don
[ned by the a-ed Gaglio and he hurried
.direct to the old regiment to fill the
place left vacant by the German bullet
I which took his only son.
j Five war medals hang on the old
man's breast now. Defying the enemy
and death hundreds of times, Gaglio
has taken toll for his loss and his
medals are evidence. He never takes
them off.
Seriously wounded in the French as
sault at Tracy-le-Val, he was carried
to a hospital. Surgeons shook their
heads and ordered his immediate dis
charge from the army.
But the old poilu mastered his
wounds and demanded the privilege of
taking his place in the line.
He rejoined his regiment when the
German hordes of the crown prince!
were throwing their full force towards [
Verdun. Ho was one of those men
whose names will live immortal in
France for having stemmed the German
tide, time and again, lived for weeks
under hellist fire —and won.
After Fort Vaux had fallen, the old
soldier's regiment was transferred to
the defense of the works of Thiaumont
and the village of Fleury. The fur
ious struggle here for days was the talk
of the world. Gaglio was in it all. It
won him the rank of sergeant. It also
gave him the medialle militalre, the
fifth evidence of bravery to grace the
tunic of the aged man. Here is how!
