II is a long hark from the Mace
donian phalanx to the infantry battle
In open order, just as long as from
the short bronze sword or the javeiin
to a shrapnel or a machine gun. The
manner of putting infantry into the
zone Of action is an illustration. The
men march easily and silently along
In the valleys. exposing themselves
only when absolutely necessary. Not
flag is used, not bugle note is
heard. The men move silently as
death and wait as patiently Hours
laze by and no foe comes. Night comes
and there is still no foe, but the wait
ing men, weary with vigil and anxious
to kill, are always alert. They sleep
in their positions while the outposts
watch for them, and when morning
comes the tireless eyes are still look
ing.
Suddenly the enemy's line slips into
view from ali unexpected quarter. The
men crawl back into the shelter of
the hill out of view and run-not at
the enemy, but for a new hidden po-
sition in the foeman's front. They
again wiggle into line, load their
pieces and wait. On comes the foe,
not on a run, not massed to resist
a shock In close order, but scattered
far apart in thin line, the color of
the land about him. His line let's
through as many bullets as possible.
Every knoll and clump is taken adj

never in sight when he doesn't abso-

the deliberation of murder. He knows

spoke for hundreds Of thousands OF
women the world over. It would be
interesting to discover how many
hours Of wage-earning work which
may be called cleaning
washing, ironing, scrubbing, sweeping,
dusting, polishing-are done in one
day among millions upon millions OF
people. A single institution like big
public library will probably give 10000
hours Of work each year TO charwo-
men alone. In cities the work goes on
day and night. Apart from the sweep
ing and busting in the homes. an army
Of women with pals and mops invade
the shops and offices, where they
fight against dirt from night till morn
Ing. Holland excels in this direction.
There the housewives scrub not only
floors and windows and steps and side
walks, but fences and electric light
poles. and one may even see a strong
armed maiden using hot soapsuds and
a brush on a white tip-cart. Horses
and cows are cleaned in Holland with
astonishing assiduity. Those who
plead for cleanliness do a double serv-
ice-to the wageearners as well as
TO mankind at large Fortunately for
all concerned, the desire to be clean
lies very deep in the noblest qualities
Of human nature.

The daughter of wealthy and
prominent man, whose matrimonial
complications have been matter of
national interest, contracted what she
regarded as a fake marriage to avoid,
according to her own testimony, being
forced by her family into marriage
with a titled foreigner whom she dis
liked. This ambition of which she ac-
cuses her parents, of trying to sacri-
fee her happiness for the sake of
bringing title into the family, is one
sor which they have been bitterly pun
'shed by the notoriety which has rest
ed upon the case, but 1t is a punish
ment which the offense, If really COM
mitted, deserves. The un.American
worship of titles can be excused some
what in silly girl, but in men and
women Of this republic it is unpardon-
able.

But one day, despite all efforts to
escape, Lust found himself a prisoner.
Justice was summary in Russia in
those troubled days. He had scarcely
been a captive an hour before he was
tried by court-martial, and condemned
to immediate execution. Half-dazed,
the doomed man followed an escort Of
IL soldiers out of the camp. For a
mile he tramped beside the soldiers,
until suddenly he realized that they
had halted. His brain cleared, and
he realized that he had reached the
last stage Of his journey.
A word Of command dropped from
the sergeant's lips, and the peasant
saw the soldiers form up in a double
line before him. He offered I'D a
prayer that he might die as bravely
as many a one of his comrades had
died, and leant his back against the
tree. The sergeant bound a hand
kerchief over his eyes, while the front
rank of the soldiers knelt upon one
knee, with rifles ready.
A quick word of command, and the
peasant knew that every rife was
trained on him. A second command
followed, deafening report, and the
peasant fell.

It is unquestlonably true that one of
the greatest obstacles in the woman's
path Of industrial progress has been
her own apathy, writes Edith Abbott
in the Atlantic. She is reproached by
the men In her trade for her lack of
ambition-her seeming willingness to
remain unskilled and underpaid But
in this new movement for the fran
chise. we have the women who are al
ready in the ranks Of the skilled work
ers, and who have long since proved
their capacity for organization taking
another great step forward. They
have at last learned that their indus
trial regeneration can come only
through their own efforts and the inn
portance OF this new spirit of indepen-
dence, this enlarging of the working
womans sphere Of activity TO demand
a voice in the laws that regulate her
toll" would be difficult to over-esti-
mate.
