It is only of quite recent years that the masked battery has enjoyed recog nition as the normal position for artil lery. Yet on the battlefields of Europe today they are indispensable. Inquisi tive aeroplanes will borer above, en deavoring to locate the position of ar tillery and, if successful, drop smoke bombs, so giving their artillerymen the -ange. To cope with this danger the guns - have to be cunningly hidden from aerial observation by means of crests of leafage, trees snd in many tnstaucei draped over with foliage precisely -in harmony with the color of the immedi ate surrounding* A good artillery officer can control his battery much like a fireman does his hose. Although his guns are hid den. he himself must be In a position overlooking the field of action in order to be able to give instructions to his gunners regarding the elevation of the guns, etc. If he Is obliged to travel away from his guns hib information is transmitted either by means of tele phones, signals or a chain of orderlies. —Pearson's.

Turkish baby looks very queer In his odd dress. He wears wer his shirt a kind of padded gown, something Ilka a bathrobe, and on his little bead he wears a bright red silk cap with a tassel of seed pearls. To keep all evil awuy from the buby one or more charms tire fastened to the tassel. His arras and legs are bound tightly after they are straightened out by his nurse, and when he Is all fixed be is put in a little bed and covered with •several warm pads. In addition to this a thin red veil Is put over all. When he is all ready his father comes In to see him for the first time. If the child Is a hoy, the father Is doubly pleased. He takes the child up very tenderly in hla arms and carries Mm out of the room. Just outside the door he rests a minute and prays. After he prays three times he repeats the name chosen for the baby and this Is tho way the baby la christened. When the child is three days old a celebration Is held and old women who make a regular business of tills go to ' the different houses Inviting the ladles to the party. At each house they tell the day of his birth and the name of the baby and urge the people to come. On the day of celebration the people arrive from early in the morn ing until late In the afternoon. Nearly all bring presents for the baby's mother, and each person as she gives her pres ent to the mother expresses a pleasant wish for the child. The.t hardly notice the baby, for the mother Is afraid of bad luck if too much attention is paid to It The few who do look at him say how ugly he is or something like that and this de lights the mother, who knows they do not mean what they say. If the parents are rich sweet sherbet or coffee and candies, cakes and Ices are served as refreshments. If they are poor coffee and fruits are offered, but the entertainment, is much the same. The ladies talk and laugh and cat. until they are ready to leave. Another great event is the baby's first bath. This happens when he is eight, dnys old, and his mother and her friends may have a bath, too, if they wlßh. The baby bathes first, then his mother and then the visitors. This bath takes a long time and all the time slaves play sweet music and food is served three or four times.—Portland Oregonlan.
