APPROVAL MUST
BE GIVEN RANKING

Paris, Dec. 21.-The decree issued
at Bordeaux September 20, fixing the
salary Of Marshal Of France at 30.-
600 francs, was supposed to have the
effect of reviving that title, extinct
since the death OF Marshal Conrobert
in 1895. 1t was also supposed that
General Joffre would be raised to that
dignity in order to remedy his ano-
malous situation with reference to
Marshal French. who outranks him
but whose army is under his general
command. Now it appears that the
delay OF the government in making
the nomination is due to the neces-
sity OF parliamentary approval.
The third republic had never sup-
pressed the grade OF marshal but a
law passed in 1875 provided that the
number of marshals'in the army. and
their nomination, should be the object
OF special laws. The parliament will
be called upon at the forthcoming ses-
sion to regularize the situation. 9th
erwise when the French and English
armies may be cooperating outside
OF French territory, the chief COM
nand would devolve upon Marshal
French.
Since the creation of the grade by
Phillipe-Augustc in 1885 there have
been only 324 marshals of France,
The grade was suppressed by the re-
volution and revived by Napoleon.

neur. To be marshal of France it
was then necessary to have won a

fortified towns.

CONSTIPATION.

The causes of constipation are uni
versally considered to be the follow
ing: Constitutional peculiarities, an
emia, neurasthenia, chronic affec-
tions of the liver. stomach. and In
testines. acute fevers, drug taking.
mechanical conditions. such as tum-
oe. obesity. structures. etc.. which are
made worse by improper food and
habits.
You are all familiar with the usual
treatment Of constipation and know
how unsatisfactory it is. The reason
for this Is obvious. Look at the
causes. They are all constitutional
states. II the rest OF the orgaps were
functionating property the bowels
would also. How can cathartics,
massage, diet, etc., which merely
stimulate tho bowels. reach the cause
back of the constipation? Such meas
ures can at their best. give but tenn
porary relief and the reaction after
the first relief, is opposite to the de-
sired one.
Homeopathy. however, goes back Of
the one system. constipation, to the
cause and removes that. It cures the
individual and in this way cures the
constipation permanently.

SPY'S bR.AYERY IN
Piercing LINES
German Gained Place With
in French Army, But soon
is Found Out.

Geneva, Dec. 21.-The story of how
a German spy braved and met death.
as told by French ollicer is publish
ed by the journal de Geneve.
When Won Kluck's army was near
Paris. a large number of artillery
pieces were collected in the north Of
the capital to resist the attack. Early
one morning the French colonel in
command was shaving, when the sem
try entered his room saying an officer
who had forgotten the password had
pushed him aside and entered the ar
tillery. park. The, t"otticer" declared
he would return soon and said not to
disturb the conimapdant.s After dis
missing the sentrXS She colonel. who
had already his spictsns, hastily

a hundred guns Of III caliber. There
he met the stranger and asked him

quarters at Paris" he replied.
well, let us count the pieces" the
Frenchman said.
''Un, deux, trois-," the spy started
mo. no." said the French colonel"
let US say It first. second, third"
The French officer had q purpose.
It is a we'll known, fact that some
times German, however we'll educat-
ed, has difficulty in pronouncing in
French the words "vingt-neuvienne''
(twenty-ninth) without revealing his
nationality. The two VS. with the
It" between them prove stumbling
block. When the staff captain pro-
nounced the words the colonel drew
revolver and ordered the sentry
to arrest him.

II will said the latter. "Goodbye"
both said. A few hours later the

Trench DIGGING
plan ELABORATE
Method of Operation De-
scribed--Dig in Hail of
Enemy's Bullets.

Paris, Dec. 21.-How trenches are
dug and advances made in face of the
enemy's fire are described by French
soldier in letter to his parents.
I'VE have had plenty of work the
past week." he said, Ito gain a mere
200 yards on the enemy. We made
three successive advances in rain,
wind and hail. We are now only 50
yards from the German line with its
pits and networks of barbed wire.
Our advance has cost US dearly: many
poor comrades fell, dead or wounded,
on the way.
This is how we go to work, pref
erably when the night promises to
be dark or rainy. Artillery prepares
the way, in the afternoon, by fierce
bombardment. AS soon as night falls
we move to the front line. (And when
the enemy's rifle and machine gun
fire quiets, we take rifle in one hand,
a shovel or pick in the other, and
move over the fiat ground, crawling
along on our stomachs. At the COM
our knapsacks as protection against
the whistling bullets, we dig desper-
ately. It is remarkable how quickly
hole may be dug when the bullets
are kicking up the loose earth above
your heads; many a poor chap drops
before this is done. One comrade fell
over me with bullet through the eye.
Next day. the body, rolled in a muddy
tent-cloth and strapped to a pole, was
borne by two friends into the neigh
boring village.
"Once the soldiers have dug their
individual trenches, they must be con-
nected, but this work may be done
more leisurely. Next. the entire
trench is deepened, SO that by morn
ing we can stand up straight and
aim comfortably over the crest at the
line opposite. We must also burrow
little caves to sleep in and tunnels
communicating with the rear, and
build gun posts to the front of the
trench; then there is the work Of put
ting out barbed wire entanglements,
setting up timbers and covering them
over as a roof against artillery fire.
1t is hard work, lifting and placing
these timbers. especially dragging
them through our muddy little tun-
nels.
"In spite of rain and hail and wad-
ing around in the mud, don't get
cold. When I curl up in my hole in
the ground and sleep, forget all the
discomfortS of my home"
