LETTERS TO THE EDITOR A Canning Factory ; Belgian Atrocities. ��������� A .letter which has roaohod Mrs. Crompton from Birmingham, Eng-* land* from Lieut.

T^Brtak^REspi&v^i ti. ...-.__ Sib,���������Fruit Pests' Inspector Cunningham has been, telling us that what the ranchers need to make their fruitgrowing efforts profitable is a cool storage warehouse, where our apples can be kept until such time as the market reaches a price where we can sell and make a clean up. Undoubtedly the storage system is a good one���������provided one doesn't need the money right away, but right here in Creston How many growers have we who are in a position to finance affairs pending the arrival of top-notch prices. But I am not opposing the cool storage proposition; let's have it if it can be successfully ma-naged. To my mind, though, a small canning factory that will handle second and third grinde stuff that has hitherto gone to waste would be more acceptable, particularly in a season like tho ono we have just experienced. The Farmers' Institute, I am told, proposes to brighten up the monthly meetings by having members give talks and suggest movements for the betterment of conditions generally, and it seems to mo the feasability of a co-op erative canning faotory is well worthy their serious consideration. At the last session of tho legislature legislation was enacted providing for loans up to 80 per cent, of capitalization of these factories. This would simplify the financing problem, so far as construction goes, considerably. But tho big problems'aro securing competent men to handle tho operate Ing of tho plant and the selling of the output, and the providing of flnanco to pijy those who sell thoir produce to the factory, an tho salo of tho manufactured product would bo Buro to spread ovor many months aftor tho raw material had been reoeived. Tho matter is engaging tho attention of Kaslo ranchers, latest advices from thoro being to the effect that if the plant- iuidc-1-couuidoi-ution aro carried out tho formation of a co-operative qanning enterprise is assured. 1 The question is a larger ono than appears On tho surfaco, bnt by no means too big for tho local institute to successfully Investigate.

After routine business had been disposed of the question>o������ whether Packing and , Pruning Schools should be held this, season under Institute auspices was broached and it was finally decided that-although the matter was one that the ranchers should he responsible ior, the Institute would lencl a hand, and anyone wishing to attend either of the schools is asked to hand in his name to Secretary Lidgate at once, so that the department can bp advised at an early date' as to whether sufficient pupils are^in sight to warrant holding one or both of the schools. -The. purchase of an-air pump, which has-been found an extremely valuable appliance to have bandy in case of milk fever, was ordered. It will be kept at the secretary's office. The secretary was also authorized to procure ��������� a supply of bulletins "Description of Noxious Weeds," and "Instructions re Destroying Noxious* Weeds," for distribution among members interested. There was quite a lively discussion bn the circular letter _?r6m the "provincial" department of agriculture re the Act u> Amend the Inspection and Sales Act, which provides that the Weight of the contents of any bag, sack or package of any of the cereal products must be stated thereon, arid that uniform weights per bushel or bag for vege* tables will be clefihitely esta.blished for the whole of Canada, as from January 1st, 1915. A vote of $50 to the Patriotic- Fund was oarried, and the autljori-. ties have been oommunioated with as to whether the money should be paid into the Institute patrrptit\ fund or handed over to the Creston t Valley Patriotic Fund treasurer. To stimulate attendance at these meetings a committee composed of Messrs. J, Adlard, W. Embree, J. Heath, F, Goodwin and A.

In this way they can assist iu relieving any shortage which may develop on account of war conditions. This suggestion is of equal importance to Canadians. Attached to nearly every home are pieces of ground which at present are merely waste land. With little effort these may be converted into productive gardens. It requires very little space for a garden that, with ordinary care, will supply an average household with vegetables. By cultivating the available ground many Canadian families caa reduce their living expenses, and. at the same time, secure vegetables whioh are absolutely fresh. Germany's Gospel of Culture What was that German culture? What was its object and its practice? Its first object seemed to be���������inspired, he supposed, by thc forty universities ���������to destroy all other universities, aud they bad begun by destroying the University of Louvain, which by solemn treaty they had sworn to preserve. The second object was to drown Belgium, which they hat guaranteed by a solemn act, iu blood and iu fire, and the third was to destroy all historical monuments within their reach, aud to do what the greatest barbarians in' history would never eveu have contemplated. Louvain, Malines, seulis, all attested the benefits of German culture, and that day we had the.final report that one of the most glorious monuments of Christian architecture in the world, one of the most historical antetypes of our Westminster Abbey, the cathedral of Rheims, had beenv wantonly bombarded aad destroyed by the apostles of German culture. Can you conceive a more deliberate i and public repudiation of Christian- 1 ity from that state which is constant- ;] ly arrogating to itself the special pro. tection of the Almighty than such a wicked destruction of a great Christian temple, destroying at the same time some wounded���������some German wounded���������even seme Sisters of Charity who "had taken refuge under that sacred roof? Well, that is German culture. That is what is to be spread at the point of the bayonet by the Prussian armies all over the world, aud that German culture is one of the things that we are determined to resist.���������Speech by Lord Rosebery. Battling for the Supremacy of Justice: The meaning of the British empire! stands clear before the world today���������! clearer than the most gifted pens have 1 ever written or the most informed ( minds have ever known. The rising of India to claim her honorable place in the battle front of all the Bri tains, the:pouring?of her troops across the seas, the opening of her purse, the eager service of her princes, the surging acclamation of hor common faith and loyalty, compose a spectacle so moving aad so wonderful that silent contemplation becomes easier than praise or even gratitude. When the kaiser threw down his brutal defiance to the peace of the world, to the law of nations and to the rights of humanity, he can Uttle have dreamt from what distant shores" the answering shout of justice and its defenders would return to him. Whore he thought to sow discord he has begotten unison; where he scattered the seeds of intimidation ho is reaping the harvest of defiance and Nemesis. When he broke the borders of a peac > ful neighbor, how could he realize that he touched an alarm bringing remotest coutinents to the rescue? How could the Intoxication of self-will foresee that Himalaya and Hindu Koosh would march to the avenging of the Ardennes? It is impossible to And words that caa express the mighty significance of this gathering of the nations to punish wrong, and to support tne strong arm uplifted in its defiance.

Entente Cordiale The following narrative shows the comradeship of the * British and French troops in the trenches: "A. regiment lay in trenches under a mixed rifle and shrapnel fire. Suddenly a couple of privates noticed that tho French interpreter was awkwardly placed at a spot where the trench was not wide enough to enable him to make proper use of his rifle. " 'The Frenchman isn't comfortable,' said one, and both left the trench, spado in hand, knowing well that they wore serving the en.emy a3 targets, dug out the trench in front of their French comrade, and returned with unbroken calm to their own places and their rifles..

Bignell says: These brave drivers brought a gun out of action with shells, bursting around them. They had noticed that the gunners had been all killed, but, calmly and heroically, walked their horses down to the gun. One driver held the horses under a terrific fire, while the other limbered up, and the gun was brought safely back, neither men nor horses being hit. They had a miraculous escape. As we watched tbem from the trenches we thought it impossible for them to escape death. Shot and shell were ploughing the ground up all round tbem. It was magnificent bravery and worthy of high recognition. BRIGHT, HEALTHY? ATTRACTIVE GIRLS Waterman's Ideals write with unequalled ease and last a lifetime. Cleanly to use and safe to carry.

I do not wish* to repeat tonight in any detail���������what 1 then saidY The war has arisen immediately and ostensibly, as everyone knows, out of a dispute between Austria and Servia in which -we in this country had no direct concern. The diplomatic history of those critical weeks ���������the last fortnight in July and the first few days of August���������is now accessible to. all the world. It has been supplemented during the last few days by the admirabls and exhaustive despatch of our late ambassador at Vienna, Sir Maurice de Bun- sen, a despatch which, I trust, everybody will read. And no one who reads it can doubt that, largely through the efforts of my right hon. friend and colleague, Sir Edward Grey, the conditions of a peaceful settlement ot .the actual controversy were already within sight -when, on the' 31st of July, Germany by her own deliberate The Explanation ������f, the Showers Is Comparatively Simple Torrents of rain often follow a big battle. " History contains innumerable instances, both on land and sea, and on more than one occasion the storm or showers that followed'an engagement had--no small influence upon thd life of nations. We can hardly have a Better example than that recorded In 1588, ; when England was threatened by the I Spanish Armanda. After the encounter with our own" fleet it was struck by a heavy storm, which complete! the work of our own gallant seamen. The soldiers who* fought so bravely under the leadership of Marlborough at Blenheim in the year 1704 bad to suffer the misery of successive downpours after their brilliiant victory. Marlborough was?arixious to follow up his victory without delay, but his men were so worn? by the fatigue of the battle and the discomforts caused by. heavy rains: that lie? ~;as unable to push on for several ^ays.

During the early Weeks of the siege of Sebastopol, in 1854, the >roar of cannon and explosion of bombs was followed, day by day, by heavy downpours of rain, until bur men stood in the trenches knee-deep in mud.

Germany began the building of a great navy for. our undoing. He was glad to be able id tell his audience what he thought about" it "now.

The result is that we are at war, and we are at war���������as I have already shown elsewhere, and as I repeat here tonight���������we are at war for three reasons. In the first place, x.o vindicate the sanctity of treaty, obligations and of what is properly called the public law of Europe; in the second place, to assert and *o enforce the independence of free states, rela: tively small and weak, against the encroachments and the violence of the strong, and in the third place to withstand; as wc believe in the best interests not only of our own empire but of civilization at large, the . arrogant claim of a single power to dominate the development of the destinies of ��������� Europe (Cheers). ? ���������"���������'��������� ���������', Siince I last spoke some Taint attempts have been made in.

(Hear, hear). It is indeed the avowed belief of the leaders of G-rman thought���������I: will not say of the German ppople, but of those who ?. for many years past have controlled German policy���������that such a dominat- tlon, carrying with it the supremacy of what they call German culture��������� could happen to the world. Let -* me, then, ask for a momont what is this German culture, what is this Ger man spirit of which the Emperor's armies are at present the mission- tfu'ies In Belgium, anil in France? (Laughter). Mankind owes much to Germany, a very great debt for the contributions she has made to philosophy, t;o science, and to tho arts. But, gtnelomen, that which is specifically German in the movement of tho world In the last thirty years has been, on the Intellectual side, the development* of-the doctrine of/ho supremo and ultimate prerogative in human affairs of material forces, and, on the practical side, tho tailing ol' the foremost place ln tho fabrication aud ihe multiplication of tho machinery ol! destruction. To the men who'hnvo adopted thin fjoapel, who believe that power is the be-all and end-all of tho Htato, naturally a treaty Is.nothing moro than a piece of parchinont, and all thc old- world talk about tho rights of the wealc and tho obligations of tho strong Is only so much threndbafo and nauseating cant. For ono very remarkable, feature of this now nchool of doctrine is, whatever bo its Intellectual or Its ethical merits, Unit it has turned out as an actual code for lifo to ho a very purblind philosophy.

The task��������� do? not let us deceive ours elves^���������the task will not bea light one. its full accomplishment���������and nothing short?- of full accomplishment is worthy of our resolve���������-will certain: ly take months, it may even ta^e years. I have come here tonight,, not to ask you to count the c6st~-for no price can be top high to pay when honor- and freedom are at "stake���������but to put before ybU, as 7l have tried to do; ? the magnitude of the issue; and the supreme necesstiy that lies upon us as a nation���������nay, as a brotherhood and-family of nations���������-to rise to? its height, and acquit ourselves of our duty. The war has how lasted more than six weeks. Our supremacy at sea ha& not been seriously questioned���������full supplies of food and of raw materials are making their way to our shores from every quarter of the globe*���������our industries, with one or two exceptions, maintain their activities; ^unemployment is so far not seriously in excess of tlie average; the monetary situation has improved; and every effort that the zeal and the skill of the chancellor of the exeche- quer wtih the co-operation and expert advice of the bankers and businessmen of the country can devise, every effort is being made to achieve what is most essential���������the complete re-establishment of the foreign exchanges. Meanwhile the 'merchant shipping of the the enemy has been hunted from the seas and our seamen are still patiently, or impatiently waiting a chance to try conclusion with the opposing fleet. His majesty's government have since the war began despatched to the front already considerably over two hundred thousand men and the amplest provisions have been made for keep- downfall of rain that brought death, to hundreds of our 7 gallant'fellows. In yet another instance the heavy cannonading of a siege brought in its train a disturbance of the elements. This was just prior to the fall of Plevna, in 1877, when the moisture of the clouds war_ turned to snow as it fell, and, by increasing the suffering of the besieged, helped to make Osman come to the determination to try a last chance for freedom. ' The explanation of the rain is comparatively simple, and has been made use of to a certain extent for the benefit of agriculture :ih various parts of the world?? ��������� ."?���������: The atmosphere is laden with moisture, a concussion caused by loud reports, or noises wii loften burst the clouds, with the natural result that the drops of water fall to the earth.

One might say that the same spirit presided over its construction. Its builders planned it on a large scale and, as in the case of Versailles, to outbid Paris. This is the impression given to the visitor to Bordeaux when he sees its spacious streets, its immense squares; its enormous -build-' ings and monuments. Nevertheless, the ensembi-. is plefts. Ing, for there are plenty of trees and plenty of gardens, which lend a countrified air and a pretty tinge of _y*e-_.i to the city With its gigantic stohe buildings. In temperament the Bor- delals are very like tho Southerners, more particularly the people of Marseilles. They aro a pocket-edltior.i of Tar- tarln do Tarascon, Alphonse Daudet's braggart hero of Southern Fnuic->. Like their brothers of Marseilles they must always bo on the move, and, above all, must he continually boasting of thoir prowess. Historically speaking, Bordeaux :s a vory ancient town, tho origin of which Is unknown. It made Its appearance suddenly under tho Romans, about 200 A.P., and was thon already a largo town.

The; Japs can live for months and fight like demons oh rice alone. It is subjected to tremendous pressure and turned out in the shape of little balls. One!*of these balls with hot water will provide a nourishing meal of soup for half a dozen men. The British rely on pea soup. It came into use in 1878 in the Afghan war. On his famous march from Kabul to Kandahar the late Lord Roberts' troops were fed almost exclusively on the pea soup ration, which was so thoroughly concentrated that a single mule could carry a day's food for a whole 1 A_._1_ . vnuxxxxxitix. It is generally conceded that peas are the best of all food, when the choice is limited to one variety. They are more nutritious than lean meat, and as a "balanced" ration, that is to say, contain both fuel- producing elements and the protein that makes bone and muscle. More War Taxes and assist in developing the territory in which you make your living. Soldiers' Supplies Help Your Home District! Money which is sent by the people of Creston to eastern department stores goes out of this district and does not return. It is taken from the place where it is earned and to the development of which it should be employed. Money dispatched to the east for goods which the stores of Creston can supply builds up the department ?s tore ofthe city at the expense of Creston. Is that good business ?

With Canada shaping up to send fresh troops in batches of 15,000 or 20,000 as required to keep the Canadian forces up to 30,000 men on the firing line every day, a vote of another fifty million or even a hundred million dollars need surprise no one. Once again the papers are devising ways and means to augment the Dominion revenues, and the war stamp tax is again to the fore. This would be made applicable to all legal and real estate documents, insurance policies, telegraph and telephone messages, freight and express packages, sleeping and parlor car tickets, and a very considerable list of luxuries. The attractive feature of the stamp tax, we are told, is that it is a small thing, bearing hardly on no one in particular and yet producing in the bulk a very considerable revenue. From the government's viewpoint its special attractiveness lies in the fact that it is easily collected, the revenue coming with the sale of the stamps, whioh have to be affixed to the articles named for taxation before they are sold or handed over. There is nothing surer than that Canada will have to resort to some scheme of taxation to secure finance to maintain her rightful place iu the present crisis, and if a levy on sleeping car tiokots, etc, will do tho erick that system will answer the purpose as well as any other���������in the final analysis the wholo peoplo have to pay the shot anyway. It is consoling to know that even with these added 'touchos' Canadians will bo getting off muoh moro easily than the people of tho United States, for instanoo, who havo a war stamp tax though tho country is not at war. In view of the very general desire that obtains in the Valley to do everything possible to make the troops comfortable, and in order that effort may not be wasted, it will not be amiss to publish a list of the things supplied free to every man going overseas for duty. The information is absolutely authentic, being supplied to the Women's Patriotic League by Col. J. Lyons Biggar, director of supplies and transport. Here's the list: Two shirts. Two undershirts. Two drawers. Three pairs sox. One sweater jacket. One needle and thread holdall. One pair gloves. And the men in the field are kept provisioned with these at all times wnon communication is possible. Of course, in addition to the above-mentioned articles, each man is fully provided with boots, overcoat, serge clothing and winter cap. The ladies who are undertaking this work should look into this matter fully before deciding on any line of notion. There is so much scope For their endeavors that to expend it in directions whoro it is not required would bo unfortunate.

Her commerce has been swept from the sea: her foreign possessions have been very largely taken from her; her rfndnstries are on the verge of paralysis, and her finances are strained to the utmost. The -Boston News Bureau ie telling of a wealthy American of German descent, recently returned from Berlin, who asserts that boys of ages between 16 and 18 were being taken out of school to undergo a course of training and that men of middle age or over were actually being sent to the front. Thesame gentleman further ar- serted that supplies were running low, particularly in clothing, and credited the story that dead Germans were being buried in their undergarments so that their uniforms might be used by those taking their places in the ranks. Contrast this alarming state of affairs with conditions in Britain where over a billion dollars has just been voted for war purposes and where, as one writer states, every man of suitable age has volunteered or is prepared to volunteer for service. The German army is now like a wounded bull elephant in a jungle, which in time must bleed to death, but for the present is a dangerous adversary. It makes mad m.ehes- the ultimate effect of which must be to hasten the end, although for. the time being heavy losses may be inflicted upon thoee who come in the way of its frenzied charges. The one great obstacle to the cessation of hostilities is that Germany might be unwilling as yet to concede what the Allies must demand in the interest cf European safety. Nevertheless, peace may come as suddenly as did the war. ���������$!*$��������������� Duration of the War Premier Asquith's remarks at tho opening of parliamont that thoro is every indication tlmt. th** ������������������r wi!! bo much shorter than was first anticipated, followed by tho opposition lender's speech, whioh was also very hor>ofu), aw the first wnwln from those higher nn will) a t*wh of optimism IrO them.

On August 4 the British government addressed an ultimatum to Germany saying' that unless by midnight she gave a satisfactory reply to the question asked on July 31, "his majesty's government feel bound to take all steps in their power to uphold the neutrality of Belgium and the ��������� observance of a treaty to which Germany is as much a party as ourselves." Germany gave no reply except by the forcible violation of Belgian territory, and Britain accordingly declared war.

And Hugh made his way quietly to his own rooms, wondering what, if Lord Ambrose were successful, Lord Castleham would think of Delia's temper, and deciding that he himself would never take a wife subject to such lits of maniacal rage, no matter how much money she brought with her. The next morning he was at business early and greeted old Mr. Logan with the astonishing news that he had hopes of obtaining ������5,000 out of his uncle, a sum which should tide them, well over their difficulties. At ter disposing of some necessary routine work he went out to call at Messrs. Hetherington's aud on the way met Lord Ambrose Boustead, looking as languid and effeminate as ever, and as fashionably and carefully attired as if for Rotten Row in the afternoon instead of for Lombard Street in the morning. "Whore did you vanish to last night?" Lord Ambrose asked, stopping as he saw Hugh; "Miss Hetherington waB furious when she found you had taken yourself off." "Was she?" said Hugh uneasily, but hoping Lord Ambrose usod the word ���������furious" in its colloquial sense and not to Indicate one of Delia's fits ot literal fury. "I'm sorry, but I think I rather thought 1 had got my dismissal. Besides yon seemed very in- terested In each other." "I in her," sighed Lord Ambrose, "not sho ln mo. It was my third proposal last night." "And was ic successful?" asked Hugh sympathetically.

Then with u cipher, and Hugh thought that perhaps he was now losing something of his old persistence that had so often in the past, held him to one course, reckless of all consequences. All the same a dull conviction weighed on Hugh that this invitation to visit Ziebold's boded him no good. English Universities and the War English universities are bearing their share of the burden of war. A cavalry regiment composed of Oxford students is serving with the Allies, among them W. F. Dyde, M.A., of the University of Alberta, and 1912 Rhodes scholar for Alberta. Oxford and other universities have provided officers from their officers' training corps. But besides sending representatives to the front, they are putting their plants at the disposition of the government. Many buildings in Oxford have been turned over to the Red Cross organization to be used as hos the independence of a small state in Southeastern Europe, came to a head, so far as Britain is concerned, by the determination of Germany (in alliance with Aii-tira) to ride rough-shod over the neutrality of a small state in Northwestern Europe. "Gentlemen," said the German chancellor in the Reichstag (Augur.t 4), "we are now in a state of necessity, and necessity knows no law. Our troops have occupied Luxembourg and perhaps are already on Belgian soil. Gentlemen, this is contrary to the dictates of International Law * . * ��������� " Anybody who is threatened, as we are threatened, and is fighting for his highest possessions, can have only one thought���������how he is to hack'his way through."

Mr.^, Fairbairn believes the manufacturers of Canada as a class have largely ih their own hands the matter of whether there will be good business for Canadian factories. "Tha business is there," said Mr. Fairbairn, "if the manufacturers will only get after it. The ��������� depression in trade which was in force before the war has certainly not increased since the war began; and, on the whole, manufacturers can be assured of good business, provided they do two things ���������advertise .and push the selling department to the limit."

A visit to Birmingham uni~ -force sometimes seems to be the dom CHAPTER VI. The Flower-Girl Before returning to his own office Hugh called in, therefore, at Ziebold Brothers, and had not been five minutes in the presence of the head of the firm before his worst fears were realized. Some engagements of his, which in the ordinary course he would not have to trouble about for nearly three months, had now passed into the hands of Messrs. Ziebold, who appeared disposed to insist on their being met on the very instant. "But this is most unusual," he pretested, "why do you adopt such an attitude? It will involve you in loss, as well as placing me in a very awkward position, while you must be able to see yourself that it was never contemplated I should have this put to mo as this date." Mr. Ziebold shrugged his should- GTS. 1 am afraid I can hold out no hope first place, to fulfil a solemn international '���������' obligation���������an obligation which, if it had been entered into between private persons in the ordinary concerns of life, would have been regarded as an obligation not onlr of law, but of honor,, which no self-respecting man could possibly have repudiated. I say, secondly, we are fighting * to vindicate the principle which, in these days when material versity in August revealed gates locked, a sentry on duty and the Red Cross flag floating over the buildings. The universityof Leeds is carrying on in its laboratories a series of experiments with aniline dyes with the view to bringing back the dye industry from Germany to England. It was an an Englishman, Sir W. H. Perkin, who, in 1858, first discovered mauve as a product of * aniline oil but though the production of aniline dyes has increased enormously since then, the preparation of these for industriai purposes has been confined aln.os. exclusively to Germany. With the closing of German factories to the British, it became necessary to find another source of supply, and the university of Leeds, under its faculty of technology, is working now to discover those trade secrets, tho knowledge of which will make it posible to establish in England this industry whose beginnings are due to English inventive genius.

Clays Laboratory The clays laboratory which is now being equipped under the department of geology at the University of Alberta, will be used not only for teaching purposes, but also for the physical testing of clays, one of the chief natural products of the province. The samples sent to the laboratory will be tested to discover the exact type of article which can best be manufactured from them, whether common brick, fire brick, tile,-sewer pipe, porcelain ware, earthenware or china. Until recently most of the clays found in Alberta have been tested in fhe east. The presence, in the centre of the province, of a fully equipped laboratory of this kind, should greatly help to develop an industry, the materials for which lie so ready to hand. The Geological Survey have begun an examination of the clays found in the western provinces and it is intended that the laboratories will make a more systematic study of the clay resources within the province. German and British Cruisers NO*w that the Heligoland fight has seen British and German cruisers exchanging broadsides, naval journals are discussing the relative merits of the two national types. For years Germany has been building -what the German admiral staff terms "small cruisers." .These vessels- can be distinguished by their bearing the names of towns���������Leipsic, Karlsruhe, Ernden. Madgeburg, etc."���������and are all of small or moderate size, . great speed rand light armament. British cruisers.are not standardized ln the same way; but of late years the admiralty has been building a number of very fast ���������ships, some larger,, some smaller, than the German "small cruiser," but all more heavily armed. - The German ships are all armed with the 4.1 inch gun, a'weapon which fires a 35-pound shell, and probably can be discharged with great rapidity. The British 4- inch gun is a lighter weapon; the earlier "marks" fire a 25-pounds shell, and the projectile from the later patterns weighs 31 pounds. The British cruisers, however, usually mount. 6-inch guns as well as the 4-inch weapons, and the 6-Inch shell weigns "*l-00 pounds. Everybody feels better when Liver and Bowels mrit normal.

A safe 'and suro medicine for a ������htld troubled with worms is Mother Craves' Worm Exterminator. has been created here by discoveries made on board the German cruiser Magdeburg, that was blown up'after going ashore at the entranceof-the Finnish-Gulf. Among the articles lying on the decks on- the after-parti where boats were lowered for the majority of the crew to escape on the accompanying destroyers, were several . specimens of the old 'cat of nine tails.. When the Russian authorities went through the ship they found" one of these instruments in every officer's cabin, and all bore signs of long, and? in some cases, of hard usage. "These curious attributes of naval rank are all alike in having a handle eight inches long,* with a loop for the wrist. F.roni the other end. depend nine _.rather thongs of formidable appearance, nearly as thick as the little linger; and twelve inches long. In each case the officer's name was inscribed on. the handle. These 'cats' were handed round for press inspection last night at the Naval General Staff headquarters. Those left lying on deok ahd apparently played their habitual part in speeding up the German ' Jackios* during the nervous operation of lowering the boats to escape from tho cruiser lying comfortable aground. It is considered here that the little instruments tell a most interesting and significant story of the procedure on ooard the ships of the Royal German Navy, and provide yet anothor illustration .of the systematic savagery of that Germanism dating from 1870, which has replaced tho good old culturo of an earlier and hotter Germany. "The public arc also lo have an opportunity of inspecting tlieao latest- discovered instruments of Prussian culturo." The Russian People A feature of the world struggle is the serious and excited temper of the Rusian people, an utter contrast to the indifference or aversion with which they regarded the war with Japan. That was an adventure into which the government blundered in carrying out a policy in which the people took no interest; this is a fight of the people.' The wonderful scene at Moscow at the opening of hostilities showed that "the most religious people in Europe" entered upon the war as an act of religion. - Baby Eczema Becomes Chronic How Von Bueiow t-eii One of the special correspondents at Ostend has learned tlie exact circumstances surrounding the death of General--~von - Buelow at tbebattle of Haelen. At this battle a lad of 18, standing alone In a mass of dead, saw about 800 yards distant an officer studying a map. - The youngster j crawled quickly amongst the corpses of his comrades until he was within 400 yards of the officer. Then* he tool- careful aim and fired. The officer fell dead. Rushing up to the body the Belgian discovered to his surprise that it was that of General von Buelow. Taking off the General's boots and donning his uniform he managed to pass through the German lines. As he approached the Belgian army he discarded the German helmet and put on his own cap in fear that he might be shot. ��������� . Subsequent examination of von Buelow's garment led ?td German notes to the value of 135,000 francs being found in the vest pocket, and this money King Albert has turned over to the.

She went out walking with her father in Paris last Sunday afternoon. The two were enjoying fair weather aid'a bit of homely confidence. War's terrors to them were seemingly remote. The world looked good. But they forgot that science was putting itself to the test of accomplishment���������the science of aviation, experiments in which have set all mankind marvelling. Overhead a great man-made flying thing whirred and wheeled. The two French folk gazed in wonder .and awe. Then something happened. A bomb was dropped. There was a deafening explosion. The father's iiead waa blown from his shoulders and he fell in a crumpled heap, a horrible, sickening spectacle. Denyise, too, lay bleed- ing on the ground. One of her leg& "was torn to shreds. But she was still conscious. "Don't tell mamma," sha begged of the policeman who gathered her up in his arms. On Monday at the hospital when the surgeon came to tell her amputation was necessary she smiled at him and then passed into merciful unconsciousness, only to awake a cripple for life, if indeed her life is. to be spared. Science meanwhile had triumphed. It had been proved that an airship could defy a whole city. That from a height out of reach it could strike to kill. That it could strike to kill not only armed men, but the unarmed and even little children. That it could strike in defence of a great principle, for the honor of a powerful nation. That it was not .a mere plaything, but a weapon, to be feared, terrible in its execution and swift to get away. Possibly the aviator who thus vindicated his cause and won another triumph-in navigation of the air, laughed in glee as he flew away. We niay be sure the devils in hell did. 7 But somewhere Someone was taking note of Denyise Cartier. "Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? and one of them shall not fall to the ground without your Father." "The aeroplane which flew over Paris on Sunady, and dropped bombs killing twoJ persons," says a cablegram, "was fired upon.and brought to earth near Montgeron. The aviator was killed." Sometimes the mills of the gods do not grind slowly."���������Pittsburgh Gazette-Times. ' Cavalry-Sergeant's Bravery The following story is told by & wounded Hussar in the Lincoln Military hospital: "������������������When we were waiting for tha order to go in I saw a cavalry sergeant who had been badly wounded threo times and was still pegging at it. As ho was flchtlng I saw him go to a badly wounded corporal who was. shouting to bb taken out ot the -ft-ay of tho lino. The wounded sergeant bound up the other man's wound, and then sat him on his own horse and sent him back out of the way. Then I saw the, sergeant limp along on foot as best lie could aftor his regiment to light again. I don't know what became of him, but I shall never soe a finer thing as long as I live."
