THE DAIL‘

SE NET IE EN CB THINGS Mr. ATKINS DOES FOR HIMSELF,

service is the only incentive which the average British soldier requires in order to developa wealth of inventive power and a faculty of making himself comfortable, of which few people in times of peace have suspected him. While in bar- racks he is surrounded, as it were, by all the comforts of a home, but the moment he sets foot in South Africa he must say farewell to most of the good things to which he has been ac- customed. For nearly three weeks we have been settled in B!oemfontein, but, the vast majority of the men, who have their temporary homes on the un- dulating veldt which surrounds the city, are still without canvas tents. lhe sun beats down upon this country during March with a power which you in England experience only in July or August, albeit the hours before sunrise are sometimes bitterly cold. To pro- vide shade by day and warmth by night, parties of four soldiers combine their slender resources. A couple of brown blankets are neatly tied together, and then stretched across a piece of rope, which is kept in position by two upright pieces of stick or props. This leaves an open triangular space at each end, which is filled in by a_ piece of sacking, a sheep or bullock’s skin, and your house is complete. During the day the four soldiers can eat their meals without fear of sunstroke, and at night, by keeping close together, wearing all their clothes and_ covering themselves with the two blankets which remain, they may escape being numbed with cold.

During the warmer nights many sol- diers have preterred to sleep beneath the stars without the protection of a blanket tent. Ihave tried the plan myself, and cordially recommend its adoption to such tourists and_ sports- men as may decide to visit this state before hotel and boarding houses shall have been erected for their ac- commodation. The best way is to fol- low the example of Tommy Atkins, who generally excavates a little hollow

The bully beef and hard biscuit served out to the British army require much careful treatment before they become palatable, and Mr. Atkins has been devoting himself to the task of improv- ing both articles. Among the articles of his equipment is a mess tin, which

to “sustaining life,” but I have not met a soldier who will not tell you that they are trying to the soundest of teeth and the hardest of gums.

MANY CAMPAIGN WRINKLES.

The ant hills, as ovens for cooking bread, are not less useful to our army in times of peace tnan times of battle, when they make gvod bullet screens. So valued are they, inceed, that a couple of our scouts, who were being fired at by the Boers, actually got up and fought each other for the possession of one, to which both laid claim. After a well-contested round, the smaller man was knocked out, whereupon his comrade, with much chivalry, pulled his fallen foe toward the protection of the mound, which henceforth sheltered the two. Mr Atkins distains filters, and 1 have fre- quently seen him drinking from pools which would be condemned in Eng- land by any sanitary inspector. His peculiar method consists simply in this, that he clenches his teeth tightly, and then, by sucking slowly, he avoids taking any water-leeches and other un- pleasant things into his mouth.

All these campaign wrinkles are practised by infantry and cavalry alike, but the possession ef a horse enables the mounted man to equip himself a little more efficiently than his com- rades on feot. Thus, I have seen men belonging to Rimington’s Scouts carrying on their saddles a canvas bag, holding enough water for a couple ot days. They made the receptacle themselves by sewing the material very closely together, leaving a small aperture at one corner for the inser-

in

tion of a piece of hollow cane or cork. For a day or two the ba, but subsequently it becomes quince water-

proof, and being carried in the open air the contents remain cool. A mount- ed infantryman is never ata loss for a bridle, providing he has enough string, and ony this morning | saw a member of the Lord Mayor’s Own riding out to camp with a sadd'e an‘ stirrups improvised for the ocv...0. vul @f an old blanket, piece of rope, and stiff wire,

In the department of mending and tailoring Mr. Atkins has been compet- ing successfully with the boys of the Naval Brigade. Last year, at the close ot the naval naanoeuvres, the bluejackets of Her Majesty’s ship, Sanspareil, made a serge dress and a pretty toque for the wife of a shipper whose vessel they had run down in the night. ‘Tommy would have been un- equal to dress or toque, but in the art ut patching and button-holing he is not easily beaten. Of late he has had more practice than he desired, for the

smart suits of khaki and puttee leggings |

in which he left England are now rerrib'y worn and travel-stained. He is able to make one shirt, and one pair of socks last for a month, or even « longer period, but the uniform in which he now stands will hardly hold together until we reach Pretoria. It was only yesterday that I saw a com- pany belonging to one of the Irish ‘egiments, every man of which was in so deplorable a plight as regards clothes that, on the score of decency, he would not have been allowed to show himself in the streets at home. Tunics and trousers were both in shreds. It will obviously be impossi- ble to leave Bloemfontein before fresh garmedts have arrived, and in view of the approaching winter here they must be of warm material. Meantime, our soldiers disport themselves in this capital with the certain consciousness that they are unable to appeal to the ladies of the town, as in the days wher they wore tunics of dazzling red and buttons of polished brass. Valor on the field is admirable, but a smart suit of clothes in the Orange River Colony is not less effiective than in England as a passport to the nurse- maid’s heart, even though she be as dark as ebony and her lecks be frizzled. Patches, grease, and travel-stains are powerless to attract the attention ot the fair, and for that reason alone re- sourceful Mr, Atkins sighs occasion- ally for the brave trappings which he has temporarily exchanged for a suit of khaki, in a land where almost everything is of the same tint as the clothes which he wears.—Lond.
