French Correspondent Sends Vivid

of the misery of the Turkish soldiers
and the disorganization of the Turk.

i have never seen a more perfect
picture OF human distress than that

which he had tied a piece of Irvine.

who came to our tent begging for

dying from wounds and fatigue.
At Tchorlu column OF soldiers
terrible in appearance struggled
through the streets in rain and
wind storm. No one paid any atten-
ton to them. They had no shelter,
nothing to eat. From nearby bak-
cry an officer threw out handfuls of
ioaves. More than half of them got
bread, and the soldiers fought for the
loayes. More than half OF them got
nothing and turned away, paid and

After all the houses were closed
practically all the population had

which to live in America 1t is not
that they are exclusive. 1t is not that
they are particular. People who have

But with their money they are able
to get property close by the homes of
people who do not wish to associate

MIcRoBE LOST HOPE.

A lonely microbe, disheartened and
ready to die because the public health
service is rapidly putting all his ilk
where they can do humanity no harm,
peeked over the edge of Assistant Sur
geon General George Fuckers desk
the other day and heard the doctor
humming ditty that went like this:
"A fly and a flea, a mosquito and
louise, all lived together in a very
dirty house The flea spread the plague
and the skeeter spread the chills. All
louise spread typhus, too. Folks in
bills. The fly spread typhoid and the
louise spread typhus too. Folks in
that house were mighty sickly crew.
Along came man and he cleaned up
the house. He screened out the
skeeters and swatted the louise. The
fly and the flea he cracked on the
wall. Now the people in that house
are never sick at all"
We'll" piped up the microbe, that's
all right as far as it goes. but it strikes
me you've been a bit partial in this
thing. How about the bedbug? Where
does he get OFF,"
He's going to get off pretty quick, -
returned the doctor so far the bed
bug has been able to prove an alibi,
but I've put the sanitary detective on
his trail and I'll get him yet"

If cigarette smoking is as deadly as
some of the antis make out, this coun.
try will soon be inhabited exclusively
by imbeciles.
During the fiscal year 1912. the tidy
number of 11.221.621,0S4 cigarettes
was smoked in this country. an aver
age of about l2S for every man. wom-
an and child. Inasmuch as not all
men and women and few children be-
fore the walking age smoke cigarettes,
the average consumption for those
who do is considerably larger than
12S.
This eleven billion odd is an in,
crease of two billions over the con.
sumption of 1911, and Secretary Mac.
Veagh and his department officials
confess they cannot explain this vast

FAvoRs A RETIREMENT LAW.

IF there were a retirement law for
the clerks employed by Uncle Sam in
the various departments at Washing
ton, the civil service would not be
cluttered up by a small army of aged
and inefficient clerks" said w. r.
Hayes, former congressman from Ne
oraska, the other day.
AS 1t Is now, no head of depart
ment or bureau chief will discharge
man or woman who has been a faith
ful worker for 80 years or more. be-
cause old age has impaired the useful
ness OF the employe. AS a result, there
are hundreds, If not thousands. who
are kept on the rolls merely as mat
ter or humanity. II dismissed they
would In many instances be thrown
upon the charity of the world. for it Is
utterly out OF the question that pri-
vate employment could be obtained
for them.
The stupidity of the clerks them
selves has been one of the chief rea-
sons why liberal retirement law has
tailed OF passage for all these years.
The clerks can never agree on any
policy among themselves Many of
them obstinately contend that the gov
ernment has no right to withhold a
dollar of their salaries to go into a
pension fund for retired clerks, ig-
noring the recognized improvidence of
that large per cent. of employees who
never save penny of their salaries.
1t would be an act of beneficence to-
ward this class If a portion of their
wages was regularly retained.
"unquestionably, it would be cheap
er for the government to give pen
sion outright to those whose faculties
are decayed. and to put young and
vigorous people in the place of the
superannuated. Every other first-class
nation in the world save the United
States has some kind of pension
scheme for its civil servants, that of
Canada, especially, being model"
