The Armies of Europe Have Various Rules
 Regulating 1t.
 The restrictive conditions at present in officers in the Russian army forbid this privilege under any circumstance in the case of officers under the age of 23. Be- tween the ages of 23 and 28 years the dot of an officers wife must amount to sum representing the minimum in- come of 250 rubles yearly.
 On comparison of these conditions with those regulating the same question in other European armies it may be noted that in the Austria Hungarian army the number of officers authorized to contract marriage is limited by fix ed proportion assigned to each grade, and, these totals being reached, all fur ther marriages must be deferred pend ing the occurrence of vacancies in the married establishments.
 The Italian army regulations, which fix the income of the fiancee at 8 mini mum of from 1,20O to 3, 900 lire, would appear to be more rational in their operation. Italian officers, however, ap- ply somewhat liberal interpretation to
 
 Der of marriages occurring under actual provisions does not exceed more than an eighth of the total number, seven eighths of the officers being united un- der the conditions of the religious cere- mony only, and thus exposing them selves to all the inconveniences which attend & marriage not recognized by civil law.
 Similar disabilities would now ap- pear to be incurred by Russian officers, and suggestions have been made by, the press in Russia that 8 general revision of the law is becoming necessary. The question is assuming some importance from the fact that Russian officers, reaching total number of nearly 40, GOO, represent one of the most impor tant classes in the state.-Brooklyn Git.

The Teacher.

One cause of the low standing of the teachers calling is lack of extended professional training. Professions easily entered are not usually highly respect ed. The medical profession has been cited as an illustration. Not long ago, when one could be physician without special training, the profession was not very highly esteemed. Now, when ex- tended training is demanded both by public opinion and by law, the profes- sion is respected as one of the highest. In like manner the teaching profession would undoubtedly increase ill favor were training of high order demand ed. In fact, we find the respect for the profession varying ill different countries and in different grades of the school system almost in direct ratio to the education and professional training re- quired of candidates

A CRITICAL TIME During the Battle
 of Santiago.
SICK OR WE'LL, A RUSH
 NIGHT AND DAY.

The Packers at the Battle of
 Santiago de Cuba were all
 Heroes. Their Heroic Efforts
 in Getting Ammunition and
 RatiOns to the Front Saved
 the Day.
 P. E. BUTLER, of pack train No. 3 writ ing from Santiago, De Cuba, on July 23d. says: "We all had diarrhBa in more or less violent form, and when we landed we had no time to see doctor, for 1t was 8 case of rush and rush night and day to keep the troops supplied with ammuni- tion and rations, but thanks to Chamber lain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhea Rem edy, we were able to keep at work and keep our health; in fact, I sincerely be- lieve that at one critical time this medi- cine was the indirect saviour of our army, for If the packers had been unable to work there would have been no way of getting supplies to the front. There were no roads that 8 wagan train could use. My comrade and myself had the good fortune to lay in a supply of this medicine for our pack-train before we left Tampa, and know in four cases it absolutely saved life."

He Had Changed.

A widow once called upon an artist and asked him to paint portrait of her husband. "When can he sit?" inquired the artist "He can't sit at all, " said the widow, "he's dead. !" ''Then you will have to furnish me with his photo graph" said the artist. "He never had his picture taken" said the widow. Nevertheless the artist undertook the job, ana when he had finished the work he asked the widow to come and see it.
