 Of National Relief Association

Mrs. IJlysses S. Grant has accepted the office of president of the Womans Ma tional War Relief association, in the iol- lowing letter to the corresponding secre- tary of the organization, Mrs. E. F. MIG Lean of New York:
 My Dear Mrs. McLean:-Your letter ln- yiting me to join you in your great work for our beloved soldiers and sailors haS been received Of course, l will Join you, and I deeply regret that my poor eyesight prohibits the possibility of any work on my part Since you assure me, however that the great name so proudly and low ingly bear will help you, cannot refraln from heartily and fully joining with you m vour great work. Sincerely yours,

 The national relief committee of Coionlai Danes of the state of New York donated $500 for the purchase of delicacles anu other food for the sick and wounded on the hospital ship, Relief.
 The women of Atlanta are very much in- terested in their relief association ai.t have succeeded in arousing public senti- 1nent to the point of inducing liberal con tributions to the organization for the bene- fit of Georgia troops.

There is a courage that blindly and reck- lessly rushes on almost certain death. There is the courage that intelligently and recklessly plans and executes a difficult and technical manoeuVre in the face of almost certain death. Ono was the courage of Balaclava and Pickettis charge. The other is the courage Of Cushing and of Ho'bson. Where a man has to die, and has simply the problem of killing as many enemies as he can before he dies, the fierce primitive instinct of fighting and daring is what car rles him through. The Anglo-Saxon of all ages has reused himself to that daring by the lust of fighting. The rapture of the strife is all he thinks or feels. But civlli- zation with Its warships where steam and electricity fight machine guns behind six teen-inch steel walls has developed new courage. It is the man who knows the trade of the electrician and the seaman who could conceive and execute. the man. oeuvre of bringing the Merrimac to the crit ical spot in the harbor's mouth, swing her athwart the current, check her headway, blow her up at the right Instant and quit her, having done every part of the com plicated task at the necessary moment. To accomplish feat so difficult were there no opposition, and accomplish it instantane- ously with the knowledge that 0 shower of Maxim bullets might at any moment stop their work and end their lives, Is the glory of Hobson and his gallant little crew
 The incident affords a splendid revelation of the temper and courage of the navy.

 s The .clever little lace makers who are legion in Paris, and still, like the L.zettes and Rose Pompons of 1850, work in their attics behind their gilly-fower pots are the first French victims of the war. As probably no women in the world set their tables with more exquisite linen than do we Americans, it is almost exclusively for the American trade that the beautiful cen- tre- pieces and other articles in needle point a remade. Last year one shop on the Rue d la Paix sent over to this country no less than four million tiny squares of different patters to stand glasses on. They were as fine and as artistically worked as a brides veil and many of them cost $l5 or $20 apiece. buyer of one of the linen shops just returned from Europe says that the proprietors of the Rue de la Paix house complained that not a single order for these luxuries In needle point had been received during the last two months.

SO RODE THE SIX HUNDRED.

From the Crimson.
 The following extract from one of the letters of Harvard undergraduate in the First regiment volunteer cavalry, now at San Antonio, should be of Interest to Har- yard men In Cambridge:
 Every morning now we have mounted regimental drill. Six hundred horses gall loping in column of fours Is fine wave of power. The dust lifts up so thick 1t Is like fog and you can barely see the next man ahead Half-blinded, wet with sweat, and the horses on both sides rubbing against your legs. you go tearing, galloping on. Then suddenly through the white wall of dust you see the white haunches of the horse ahead sink down and a hand shoot upward with the fingers spread apart. There is a quick tam, creaking and rub ping of leather, and they're off again.
 '0ne of the men died. taps were sounded over his coffin, slowly. very slowly. while kha regiment stood in line."

 Common sense advises her to fill up her cracks but how-not with putty? O, no! There is a better plan than that.
