GERMANY SAVES HER FOOD SIIPPLY
FisblonaUe Diflsrs Out Must Have Bread Tiekets.
CARDS PREVEKT BIG WASTE
In ths Fashienablo RMtaurant and Dairy Lunch Rooms In Barlin On* Can Find as Great a Variaty of Foods as In Any Amariean City—White Bread Only Food Hard t^ Find.
Germany Is not starving. Food is plentiful. Shop whjdows are tilled with liient, fruit, fish, cake, biscuit*, bread and other varieties of food. I'rlces vary Ilttle from those In New York aud London. Tbe ouly food one has difficulty iu linding Is white bread, but everyoue here is so accustomed to tbe "KK" or war potato bread that white bread Is a forgotten luxury, says Cu^l W, Ackemiiin writing from Berlin.
lu the fasbloiijible restaurant aud dairy lunches one can flnd as great u variety of foods .is in nny American city. At tbe first class hotels meals are us reasonable as they are In the leading Amei'h'an hotels.
Everybody, however, eats by bread card and uo oue wastes food. In the restaurants and hotels diners order ouly what tliuy ciu eat. Thut is the way the civil poiiulaflon of (Jermany bas adapted Itself to the war.
ily bread card was Issued the fil'st day of my arrival. It entitles me to '27A) grams of bread for three meals. Tbat amount Is eiiual to ten good slices of a live cent loaf cf bread in America, and 1 have found tliat It Is more than 1 care for any day. Tbe dully bread ciH'ds ure ;»i)out four Inches square. .\i'(Mind tbe bordeis are little S(iuare lierforatioiis wliich can be broken off aud e.\change«l for twenty-tlve gr.nins of bread ench. In the center are lii- stnictlons saying that the card is not transferable, that it is good for only a certain day and ihat It Is my "dally statenient of breavl allownnce."
Pormaneiit residents of Berlin re¬ ceive their bread cards every week from the miinli'iiial authorities. The weekly cnnls arc alxuit nine Inches S(iuare, They nmst bo carried to the bakeries every lime one purchases bread or they must be fuken to fhe resfaurniits If one "dines out." Housewives Enthusiastic.
German housewives are enthusiastir ovt»r bread cards, and the American women who uiaiiilahi "penslmis" here sa/ they wisb_G^|MS|iy had always hiul such cai'(ls.,^fi^§^eblare Ihe cards prevent tin ciioimons waste of bread und fhey prevent the maids from tak¬ ing bread away without their mistress' consent.
Wiiile food is plentiful the (Jeriuan governiueiit is doing everything possi¬ ble to conserve the sui)plfe8 und the people firmly believe that tbe United States should continue to send food into fills country.
Every American who con>es to Ber¬ lin, according fo .\ml)'assiidor Gerard, wauls to see Ihe kulser. -\ few weeks ugo a New Jersey minister appeared ut lhe embassy with lettciiJ of Intro¬ duction to the ambassador.
"Well, what can I do lli>r you" asked Hera I'd.
"Well," replied the di\:nc beijitatlng- ly, "nofliliig at present. I Just wanted to come In^ind see you."
"You're the first Aiuericun In two years who hasn't asked to meet the knlser," said Gerard.
Oeriuaiiy's "KR" liieail looks like brown bread and tastes like white bread.
That's Ihe way the (ierman'sclentiats have put tbe bread problem ou a scl- eiitific basis. "KK" lirend gets' Its name from " Krelgs-kartoffel brot." which, truiislnted, means "war potato bread." II Is bread made of a mix¬ ture of wheat and potato fl oiw, nnd it Is coiiKJdrred Just as nulritlous ss whole wheat bread.
Early in tbe wai- tlie United States deimrtuient of agrlculiiH-e Imported some potiito flour from <lermany to ex¬ periment with It. It i^! understood here that Ihe .Vmerlciin scientists,have fonnd the "KK" bread made of TV) per pent potato flour and 7<i per'cent'tvbeiit flour more hpnllhfnl than ordlnar.v white hread.
Dearest. I sit alone tonight and wait (or death. Which conies when morn araln ¦bah baths the world In gold: It aeema the darlt treea o'er m« bold tbeir breath Before the secret of eternity is told.
Not ao tbe tender, wblapering leaves were wont to i>ause When you and I sat close beneath their shade. Perhapa the thoaght of parting- overawee. But never can they amy I waa afraid.
"A captured spj- and shoot hlni at the dawn.'" Why not beneath the cold and silent eye of night? A cruelty to see the coming mom And know that I shall die before that light.
How often have we dreamed, sweet one, of thnt bright time Whon wc sliould live tOKether, man and Wife? And \et my country'* pride must be up- held- What difference If it coat my humble life?
But while I stand v^pon the brink of death and wait, '\^' It seems that many things are clear to mp. I wish that all could know before too late What end of flghting for our natlon'F "pride " will be.
But losing millions of our fairest lives In gore. And little children starving for a crust of bread— 4 Then thoughts will come wl'Jch have not come before— The nation then will pauee to count her dead.
And then will come the peace hoped for So long, Tet by our zealous chieftains long de¬ nied. And home will come our men who once Were strong To die thefe for a nation's "pride."
Ah, sweetheart, in the east 1 see the light! Farewell, niy dearest, for I hear their tread 1 One ot a million goe.s to end his fight— What cares :i nation after I am dead? -rJulla i:ioiiton C^resiip in St. Louis Re- r'Ublir.
BURIED BY STEEL HE DIRECTS HIS OWN RESCUE.
Ironworker Escapes Unhurt After Two Tons of Metal Fall on Him.
Joseph nick, a boss Iroiiwiuker, was standing by a Hat car suiieriiitendliiu'- the unloading of severnl tons of steel beams, each twenty-five feet loug, for the new iiliint of tbe tYiicllde Steel company, in Haii'lsgn, N. J., when one of the bea i»R-bet a me dIsUKlgcd. The sliikes Whicii hehi the heaiiis in tlie car had been removed, ami tbe beam rolled off tbe Hide of tbe car, striking nic'h and knocking him down.
Fifteen or iwenty other beams roll¬ ed off after Hie tirst one. burying Blck under moro than -i.OiHi pounds of steel. Telephone calls were sent at once to a bo-spltal and to Dr. A. .V. .Mulligan. Dr. Mulligan in bis automobile and a hospital amliulance ran a race at high speed lo the railroad yard, while all the laborers near the- iilace of the ac¬ cident were put to work lifting off the steel beams, eaeh one weighing several hundred pomuls.
After fbe top beams had been remov¬ ed the voice of Kick, who had been thought dead, was heard shouting up:
"Kasy, tbere: Kasy, there! Now, one, two, three I''
This formula he repeated two or three times, iui.\ed with boss Ironwork¬ er's Knglish. Kvidently Itiek was not dead, but it was believed that many of Ills iKJiics must be broken and that he was prolialily raving. However, when the last lieiim was sung oft' his body he Juiiiped xxp and began spank¬ ing tho dust fr»^ni his overalls. Tho two pbyslolauH rnn forward and start¬ ed to examine blm. but ho waved them aside.
"I'm all right." be said. "It takes more than that to hurt an ironwork¬ er."
Tlie physicians insisted on examlii- iug BlcU, but could not find niiythlng more* I han some leiii|ioi'ary nvl-wells, where fhe rails'must have fallen lu such a way as to form a sort of arch over blm, so that only a snuiH fraction of Ihe two tons of stoel was supporteil hy his Iwdy.
$H( KILLED BY MANIAC.
Bodies Found Under House of Man Wbo Oied In Asylum.
Six skeletons, nppnniitly repealing murders committed by Ihigene Butler while insane, were uncovered under his home, soutlu'ust uf Niagara, N. D.
The Vict lins had been hit on tbe bead, their skulls beln^ crushed In. All but oue of tbe victims were adults, tbe otber lieiug a boy fifteen to eighteen years-of age. ,
Tbe discovery reveals a new chapter in tbe life of Butler, who was a re¬ cluse, became insane in 1906 and was an Iniante of the Asylum F'or tlie In¬ sane at Jamestown nntil bis death In 1913.
That his victims were farm laborera wbo, tte believed, were plotting to get bis money is the theory advanced by offlelala.
TlSe liodles were bnrle<l under tbe houi!M>. side by side, and Butler bad cou- c«alfd an opening through the floor through which he had droppe<l his Vic¬ tims. The murders were probably com¬ mitted over a period of aev«ral yean, pnibably foor or flve yeara before he was coounltted as Inaim*.
