"There's a Reasori* FAMOUS NOVELIST HELPING BRITISH Sir Hall Caine. This portrait of Sir Hall Caine, the famous novelist and dramatist, is by he Belgian artist, Jonniaux. Caine has spent practically all of his time since the beginning of the war in spreading British propaganda in the United States. He has written hundreds of articles which have been published by many papers. He was educated as an urchitect but never practiced. He lived or several years with the poet-painter, D. G. Rossctti. HOME DIARY FROM LONDON By Margaret Walter. Went to see the exhibition of the Red Cross pearls at the Crafton gal leries today. These pearls have been given singly and in pairs for the Red Cross and altogether there are already more than 3,000 of them. The queen, Queen Alexandra, all the princesses there are just stacks of them when you come to count them up—have given generously of their treasures. Then I guess that about every woman in Eng land who has ever laid claim to any jewelry at all will contribute at least one pearl. And remember that a pearl necklace to an Englishwoman is almost as much a necessity as a chemise. Over here they wear their pearls no matter what sort of clothes they are going to put on, wear them morning, noon and night. A girl begins to wear her string when she gets to be 18, usually at her coming out party, and she never takes them oft. In this way most families have gradually acquired beautiful picked pearls generation by genera tion, the necklaces have been reassem bled, the finest going to the eldest daughter and so on. The Countess of Rothes was wearing the family pearls, a necklace 300 years old, when she sang "Lead Kindly Light" as the Titanic sunk. From this heir loom she has selected two superb pearls for the Red Cross. One magnificent pear shaped drop pearl weighs 72 grains and the largest round pierced pearl is 34 grains. There are also black and pink pearls Cf almost priceless worth, and some people who have felt still a desire to give after they have con tributed various pearls have sent love ly diamond clasps of modern and an tique workmanship. These will be used to finish the necklaces when they are finally arranged for sale. I liked watching the royal party ex amining the jewels. It was funny to me, for whom one pearl is much like another, to watch these women recog nize pearls as if they wefc people. Princess Mary and Princess Pit went round together exclaiming at every new arrival, "Why, there's Cicely's pet, look, wasn't it sweet of her?" "If there isn't that little rascal Pam's mascot, you know the one thalt's seen her through all her escapades." And so on. Every pearl, suspended on a slender silken "thread, is hung against rich cream velvet and royal deep blue frames the different cases. It's a won derful exhibition which has Its pathetic side, too, for by far the greater num ber of peals are sent in memory and an enormous number are anonymous gifts of women who thus commem» orate their fallen heroes. CHAPLAINS HANDLED BY WAR DEPARTMENT London.—(by mail)—The British Army has 3,294 commissioned chap lains, including 1,844 Church of Eng land clergymery C62 Roman Catholic, 774- of various Protestant denomina tions, and 14 Jewish rabbis. These figures do not include Colonial chap lains nor chaplains engaged locally and uncommissioned. The war office administers the army chaplains' department directly, and chaplains arc appointed by the secre tary of war on the nomination of the various denominations. In France, the principal chaplain at the outset of the war was Rev. Dr. Simms, of the Pres byterian church of Ireland, ranking as a brigadier general. At the present time Bishop Gwynne, of the Church of England, is in command, with the rank of major general. Dr. Simms has been graded to the same rank, and remains in charge of all chaplains Jn France belonging to churches other than the church of England. About 100 chaplains have been killed in action or died in service, and many have been wounded or invalided home from diseases contracted while on ac tive service.

Ellis I'urker Hutler. the author, who lives at Flushing, and is devoting his energy to aiding in the successful prosecution of the war, docs not hear an enviable reputation for patriotism in his own household. Mr. Hutler has been writing for the Thrift and War stamps campaign. Mr. lJutler is the father of twin sons of tender age.

There was silence for a minute, then one of the twins looked up and ex claimed "Dad, why ilon't you do some thing patriotic?" VERMIN ATTRACTED BY FOOD If No Scraps Are Aroun^l There Will Be Little Trouble With Ants or Roaches. 1 The surest way to keep a house free from ants is to leave no food lying about on shelves or in open places, where they can reaeii it. Ants go where they liiul food, aud if the food supplies of the household are kept in ant-proof metal containers or in ice boxes, and if all foods that may hap pen to be scattered by children or oth ers is cleaned up promptly, the ant nuisance will he slight. Cake, bread, sugar, meat, and like substances, are especially attractive to the ants, and should be kept from theiu. ltoaehes will not frequent rooms unless they find some available food material, and if such materials can he kept from living room and ollices or scrupulous care exercised to see that no such material is placed in drawers where it can .leave an attrac tive odor or fragments of food, the roach nuisance can be largely restrict ed to places where food necessarily must he kept.
