RECY, a town of northern France,
is famous In history for the great
victory gained near by on August
26. 1346, by the English, under Ed-
1 ward III, over the French of King
Philip of Valois. The first attack
resulted In disaster for the French,
who were driven back. The sec-
ond attack was made by a large
body of French knights who had
arrived, and served only to In-
crease the number of casualties of
the French forces. A few of the
more valorous charged up to the
English line and fell near It. The blind king of
Bohemia, with a party of devoted knights, suc-
ceeded In penetrating the English line, and the
king was killed among the ranks of the prince of
Wales' men-at-arms. The tablet in the Illustra-
tion marks the spot where he fell, as near as
can be told at the present time.
WHERE WALLACE GATHERED HIS HOSTS.
Wallace tower, Stirling, 8cotland. marks a
■pot famous in Scottish history. It was here
Wallace gathered the Scots for his greatest bat-
tle. Six centuries ago, when Robert Rruce was
fighting for the throne of Scotland, the patriotic
William Wallace led a royal army of 8cots to the
hill in preparation for a battle with the English
under Surrey and Cresslngham. Here they
camped one September night In 1297 and the next
day utterly defeated the English in an encounter
at a bridge over the river. Up to that time the
English forces of Edward I had had the advan-
tage; Wallace's victory here turned the tide of
fortune, and though he himself was afterward
taken prisoner and put to death (1305), the splen-
tlld triumph of the Scots a few years later at
Bannockburn (only three or four miles from here
at the other side of Stirling) did secure the In-
dependence of the land. The memory of Wallace
Is dear to every lover of Scotland.

GRAVE MOUND OF GREEK HEROES.

who died in this most decisive victory which pre-
vented Persian influence from invading Europe.
The battle had hardly begun when the Per-
sians, In Immensely superior force, doubtless ten
to one, pulled themselves together and by sheer
mass broke through the Greek center. But this
had been calculated upon beforehand. MUtlades
employed strategy, making his line weak at the
center, and allowed the Persians to break iL
Then with his heavy masses at the ends he
ground the Persian wings to pieces and fell upon
the Persian center. The most stubborn fighting,
apart from the battle at ships, was probably at
this spot, half a mile from the shore. Six thou-
sand four hundred Persian bodies lay on this
plain and along the shore, while 192 men of
Marathon lay wrapped In glory on this bloody
field.
THE MASSACRE AT CAWNPORE.
A beautiful memorial was erected at Cawnpore,
India, in memory of the women and children mur-
dered by Nana Sahib in IF57. Perhaps the sad-
dest. most pathetic Incident in the entire history
of the world is marked by this brooding angel.
In the terrible Indian mutiny, half a century ago.
200 women and children w ho had escaped slaugh-
ter at the massacre of Cawnpore, were brought
back by Nana Sahib, and were hacked to pieces
here by professional butchers. The bodies were
thrown Into a well beneath that stone upon which
the angel now stands. Her arms are folded, de-
noting resignation; she holds in her hands the
martyr's palms. Around the well curb Is In-
scribed, "Sacred to the perpetual memory of the
great company of Christian people, chiefly women
and children, who near this spot were massacred
by the followers of the rebel Nana, and cast, the
living with the dead. Into the well below, on the
16th day of July, 1857."
THE LION OF CHAERONEA.
One of the illustrations shows the Lion of
Chaeronea, which guards the graves of patriots
who fell on Mt. Parnassus, Greece. 338 B. C.
A few years ago one traveled past this spot
and saw only massive pieces of marble, evi-
dently parts of a lion. The head lay with Its
muzzle upward; other fragments lay scattered
about. There was never any doubt among intel-
ligent Greeks that these were remains of a lion

WHERE JOAN OF ARC WAS BURNED.
A slab In the sidewalk of the Place du Vleux
Marche, Rouen, France, marks the spot where
Joan of Arc was burned at the stake.
For a century and a half after the conquest
(1066) this northern district belonged to Eng-
land. by virtue of the sovereign's inheritance
from William of Normandy Rouen here was an
English town. Then the French captured and
held It until 1419. when it fell once more Into
French hands. While the inspired peasant girl.
Jeanne d'Arc, was leading the French armies
against the English, this was a stronghold of her
enemies, and every victory she won made their
hatred blacker. According to the old chronicles.
she had premonitions that her mission for
France was accomplished when she raised the
siege of Orleans and secured the coronation of
Charles VII at Rhelms; but the king would not
let her go back to private life.
In 1430 at Compiegne, she was taken prisoner
by the Rurgundian allies of the English, and by
them sold to those against whom she had de-
fended her country. It was In an old castle half
a mile away behind us (the building Itself 1b not
now In existence), that she was tried for heresy
and condemned to death as a witch; on the spot
where the slab is set In the pavement (1431) she
was burned at the stake.

WHAT SHALL I SERVE?
All salad makers have their own
proportions of oil and vinegar. Too
much is not
wholesome; two
tablespoonfuls of
vinegur of the
usual strength to
five of oil is a
good rule to fol-
low, using salt,
cayenne and other
seasonings to taste.
Thousand Isle Dressing—From the
number of salad dressings bearing this
name one must be named for each
island. The dressing Is a simple
French dressing as above with the ad-
dition of chopped onion, celery, pep-
pers with some catsup; in fact, any-
thing may be added and named a
Thousand Isle dressing.
Hellofolis Salad — Cut celery In
small bits and marinate in French
dressing. Pare an apple and cut in
sixteenths, then In thin slices and also
marinate. Parboil a green pepper, cut
In strips and let It stand In oil dress-
ing. Peel small tomatoes and cut In
tulip form, marinate them. Then
serve each vegetable on separate let-
tuce leaves arranged on a plate and
garnish with the green pepper. Or
the pepper may be served on a sepa-
rate leaf also.
Asparagus tips cooked until tender,
marinated in oil dressing and served
in a red or green pepper ring on let-
tuce, make a most attractive salad.
The flavor gives point to a salad, it
must be subtle and elusive, yet highly
satisfactory. If the delightful element
cannot be identified, so much the bet-
ter. A slice of tart apple, a suspicion
of mint, a clove of garlic. In fact, the
true salad maker Is hampered by no
preconceived notions.
Bean and Nut Cutlets -Take two
cupfuls of lima beans, one-half cupful
of black walnuts, as they are richer In
fat than the English, two tablespoon-
fuls of crumbs, one of butter. Rub the
beans through a sieve, add the nuts
chopped, salt and butter melted mixed
all together, rolled in meat drippings

GREATEST PARACHUTE ACT BE-
FORE PUBLIC FOR TWELVE
DAYS, SEPT. 22 TO OCT. 3.
World-famous aeronauts as they will
appear daily at the Oklahoma State
Fair and Exposition, Oklahoma City.
September 22 to October 3.
Ed. R. Hutchinson, America's fore-
most and most successful aeronaut,
has been engaged at an enormous ex-
pense to appear daily at the eighth
annual Oklahoma Stat* Fair and Ex-
position, Oklahoma City, Sept. 22 to
Oct, 3, 1914.
In giving out the announcement of
the engagement of this world-famous
aerial navigator, the statement was
made that the greatest parachute act
of the century will be presented when
wo men will make eight parachute
drops from one balloon. The act is
declared to be the last word In aero-
nautic daring—a dare-devil, death-de-
fying parachute feat, that beggars de-
scription, and the greatest perform-
ance of the kind in the world today.

Danger In Hasty Reforms.
Socletary wrongs are deeply embed-
ded in law and tradition, and there-
fore they are not easily righted. So
it is wisdom to go slowly, even when
going in the right direction, lest,
stumbling, progress be retarded. Re-
formers should try to avoid the waste
of haste.
Equally Unprofitable.
Nursing a grouch Is pretty much like
lugging a sprinkling can to water a
Canada thistle.

room girl!" "I have often wondered
