USE FOR "TANKS;'
IN PEACE TIME
French Have Put Frightfully War Ma
chines to a Variety of Highly
Useful Occupations
The French appear to be ahead of
us in finding a use for tanks in peace
times. A considerable number of
French tanks which are comparatively
small sized are now employed for
transport purposes about the yards of
large industrial works; others are us
ed as farm tractors, while the large
tanks are replacing horses for traction
along the wide paths of the great
French canals.
The latest and perhaps the most re
found for these machines is in connec
markable employment which has been
tion with mountain climbing for tour
its. For htis purpose the armor and
of course all the fighting apparatus of
the tank are removed and a carriage
or superstructure capable of carrying
from ten to twenty passengers added.
The seating is either arranged longitu
dinally or crosswise. Very steep grades
can be taken, while the machines eas
ily cross small streams and make their
way through brushwood, tall grass and
over the roughest roads.

Woman Fights a Burglar
Los Angeles, Cal.-Mrs. J. B. Stat
ler is athletic. She is one of the star
members of a woman's class at the
athletic club and long has been re-"
garded as a remarkably clever ama
teur boxer.
Recently she encountered a burglar
In her home. Instead of running from
the house, screaming for the police,
she took the situation in her own
hands. "Mr. Burglar, you may put up
your hands and get ready for what
probably will be the very worst lick
ing you ever had." With this warn
ing she stepped in with lightning right
and left swings to the head. The
burglar was groggy in a few seconds.
He tried ineffectively 'o guard against
the rain of blows. Finally, with a
wicked uppercut to the point of the
jaw, Mrs. Statler knocked out the
burglar.
IHe had not come to when the po
lice loaded him in a patrol wagon and
took him to a police station.
Rub-My-Tism is a great pain killer.
It relieves pain and soreness caused

Rigidly Exclude Fresh Air
Europeans do not like fresh air,
writes Theodore Roosevelt in Average
Americans. They feel a good deal
like the gentleman in Stephen Lea
cock's story who said he liked fresh
air, and believed you should open
the windows and get in all you could.
Then you should shut the windows and
keep it there. It would keep for years.

ed shut. The beds also are rather re
markable. They are generally fitted
with feather mattresses, and feather
quilts. Very oftei they are arranged
in a niche in the wall like a closet,
and have two doors, which the aver
age Europen, atfer getting into, the
bed, closes, thereby rendering it about
as airy and well well ventilated as a
coffin. I remember my own. billet in
one of the towns where we sttpped.
As I was commanding officer, it was
one of the best and was reasonably
warm. It was warm because the
barnyard was next door, literally in
the next room, as all that separated
me from a cow was a light deal door
1ty the side of the bed. The .*ow was
tied to the door. When the cow slept
I slept; but if the cow passed a rest
less night I had all the opportunity I
needed to think over my past sins and
future plans.
In another town an excellent billet,
was not used by the officers because
over the bed rwere hung photographs
of all the various persons who had
died in the house, taken wJile they
lay in that be'd.
