tar and labor Should not forget that
when the expenses of any industry are
unnecessarily increased. society foots
the bill by drafting a new consignment
of women from the home to the field.
Pinch no crumb From Women's Crust
Of Bread.
No financial award can be made
without someone footing the bill, and
we commend to those who accept the
responsibility of the distribution of in
dustrial justice, the still small voice Of
the woman in the field as she pleads
for mercy, and we beg that they pinch
no crumb from her crust of bread or
put another patch upon her ragged
garments.
We beg that they listen to the
scream of horror from the eagle on
every American dollar that is wrung
from the brow of toiling women and
hear the Goddess Of Justice hiss at
verdict that increases the want of
woman to satisfy the greed of man.
The women behind the counter and
in the factory cry aloud for sympathy
and the press thunders out in their
defense and the pulpit pleads for
mercy, but how about the woman in
the field? Will not these powerful
expoDents of human rights turn their
talent. energies and influence to her
relief? Will the Goddess of Liberty
enthroned at Washington hold the cal
loused hand and soothe the feverish
brow Of her sex who sows and reaps
the nations harvest or will she permit
the male of the species to shove
women-weak and weary-from the
bread-line of industry to the back al
leys of poverty?

Coat. the Monkeys Wear.

Have you ever wondered why nearly
all the monkeys which accompany the.
foreign organ boys should be dressed
in red coat. with sort Of jockey
cap?
The explanation is very simple. This
costume Is no fancy one. but Is an al
most exact copy of the winter dress
worn by the organ boys fathers In the
distant valley of Piedmont. where. the
peasants usually wear u red coat. rude
ly cut. with very stiff little tails. and
knickerbockers and jockey cap Of the
same color
These clothes are spun and woven
by the peasants and dyed red with the
madder which grows in the yaileyS.
The long roots are boiled. then mixed
with alum and tartar. and the result is
red dye. which. though not very
bright. does not fade. The monkeys
coats are made Of the bits which are
left over when the PEASANTS coat Is
cut Philadelphia Inquirer.

GERMAN REPORT
on WAR SITUATION
CLAIMS OF SUCCESSES IN 20,
land, GALlciA AND FRANCE
COME FROM BERLIN.
Enemy PerpIexed by Rapidity Of
Preparations in Russian Poland and
GaIicia and Tried ValnIy to Re
sist the Attacks.

Berlin.-It was officially stated In
Vienna Wednesday that our troops
were attacking the fortified position
of the enemy on the line Starry Sam
bor-Medycka, the line OF battle ex-
tending into the Carpathians. We oc-
cupied Coronyia after an engagement
lasting four days and we are pursu-
ing the enemy in the direction of
Wyskow
Minor engagements with retreating
hostile divisions which occurred in
the valley of the Visso were success
full
Our cavalry has already entered the
fortress of Prezmysl from the west.
The enemy was perpexed by the RAJ
pidity of our preparations in Russian
Poland and Galicia and tried vainly
to resist the attacks on the fortress
by detaching troops to the west. They
were unable to resist the advance of
our army and the Fifth and Sixth
Russian infantry divisions, attacked
by us at Lancut, fed in the direction
of the river San.
A Cossack cavalry division and an
infantry brigade in strong positions
/ east OF DynoW were defeated afteI
brief resistance.
The destruction of the Russian
cruiser Pallada has caused a great
deal of satisfaction among the neu
trail press.
The government of the Cameroons
reports that at the beginng of Sep
TENDER the health and spirits of tht
white population were excellent. The
natives were quiet.
The Turkish press draws specia
attention to the sinking of the Rus
sian cruiser Pallada by the German
submarine u-26 and expresses salts
faction over the event. 1t states tina
this achievement will considerable,
raise the spirit animating the Ger
man army and have a demoralizini
effect in the French and Russian
armies and navies.

Fighting of the most desperate

is holding stubbornly to the line of
the river User and thus far has sue.
cessfully halted determined efforts OF
the Germans to advance along the
coast.
This is announced in the French Of
fetal communication issued Tuesday
afternoon and is admitted in the re-
port Of German general headquarters,
which says fighting has been going on
since Sunday in the vicinity of Nieu-
port, which stands at the crossing of
the river near the sea.
A little further to the south the. al
lies are attempting to advance toward
Lille for the relief of that city, which
has been in German hands for some
time. They also are pushing in to the
north and south of Arras. Their eff
forts Monday to advance on Lille,
where the Germans hold strong posi-
tions, were repulsed, according to
the German report
To the southwark, at the bend of the
line, the Germans continue to make
furious, but futile, attempts to break
the French line. Along the Mouse, in
the east, according to the French ac1
count, the Germans have failed to re-
pulse the French troops, who de-
bouched along the territory in which
is situated the Camp des Romaines,

throwing every available man in Bel

to have the railroads working well
although they must have been serious

transported over them and Dutch
sources report that train after traiT

drive out the invaders

say they are making large numbers

going on around Prxemysl and the Gu
polas of the forts surrounding the
town are said by an italian correspon-
dent to have been destroyed by the

damaged.

battle continues on the Vistula, San
and Dniester rivers. There Is a sys-
tenn of great intrenchments on the
