Discusses Every Move Eagerly.

Madrid, Nov. 81 correspondence Of
The Associated Press King Alfonso

his generals, explaining to them what
he would have done had he been in the

who have been present at these midnight

DIED OF TETANUS.
Son Dead After Vaccination, New Yorker
Sues CITY.

OutS IlLy.
New York, Nov. 2l.-Richard G. w.
Waters said yesterday at his home, 49l3
Church street, Flatbush, that he had
employed counsel to sue the city for
damages because the forcible vaccination
of his six-year-old son, Chester, by a
board OF health physician brought on
tetanus and caused the boys death :
'My son was a pupil in public school
M. 1875, Church avenue and Forty ninth
street" he said "On Oct. 16 this board
Of health doctor vaceinated him. / am
opposed to vaccination, but the boy had
to be subjected to it to continue in
school. Three days after he was vac
cinated his arm began to swell, and from
a strong, healthy boy he became sickly.
"A week ago to-day he suffered
and was sent to Kings Coun-
ty hospital by DR.. Arthur Eddy of East
Fifty.third street and Lenox road, who
sal id he had tetanus. My boy died Sum
day. The vaccination undoubtedly was
the cause of the tetanus."
The coroner's physician found that
the boy died of pneumonia and pleurisy.
brought on by tetanus. DIR. Eddy said
Thursday night;
"The boy did have tetanus. but
won't say that vaccination brought it on.
Many things cause tetanus."
The Oyster Bay board of education
has ruled that only children who are
yaccinated can attend the public schools
there. A number of parents OF the pu-
pills who are opposed to vaccination say
they will fight forcible vaccination in
the courts, and when the next legisla
ture convenes in January will try TO
have the present law repealed.

NEEDS ALL
MEAT AND WOOL
No Exports for Present AL
lowed from Great
Britain
EMBARGO MAY
BE MODIFIED
American Exporters Still
Fear to Make Ship
ments

Washington, Nov. 2l.-Great Britain
is making it clear that until her army is
completely provided for no meat or wool
may be sent TO the United States from
England or the British colonies. Acting
ut the instance OF Boston wool mer-
chants, the state department propounded
set of specific inquiries to Ambassador
Page at London and directed him to
press for definite statement of the
exact course to be pursued by the British
government respecting the American
supply of woods from British territories
The department also expressed the hope,
through ambassador Page, that applica-
tions for licenses now or hereafter pre-
sented will be granted.
Mr.. Page received this message Nov.
8 and is filing replies from day to day.
In dispatch of yesterday he reported
that the embargo by the United King
dom and her colonies will prove the com
pletion of pre-embargo contracts on
meat, wool and woolskins. 1t was ex-
planned by the British government to
the ambassador that British subjects
were suffering much more keenly from
these restrictions than Americans, Great
Britain also refuses to recognize as OPP
erative any export licenses. The only
hope of relief is contained in the some
what indefinite assurance, reported by
the ambassador, that as soon as there is
a surplus in the United Kingdom the
embargo on wool may be raised as
against shipments to the United States.
These reports and Others of like tenor
make it evident that the rule of British
necessity will govern in all her CONNER
,ial intercourse with the United States
and that our government for the present
AN do nothing to assist the wooden
rade.

AREA OF HOSTILITIES
So PER CENT. OF GLOBE
With Addition of Turkey and Portugal,
About 100000 Square Miles Are 0c-
cupied by Belligerent Nations.

| London, Nov. p correspondence OF
| The Associated Press With the add
ton of Turkey and Portugal to the
ranks OF the bellgerents, the area OF
hostilities has been extended to approx,
| imately So per cent. of the land surface
of the globe, and about SO per cent OF
the total population of the earth must
be classed as technically belligerent, says
the London Daily Chronicle.
In round numbers, out of total land
surface of 81 100000 square miles tex
Guiding the uninhabitable regions in the
arctic and antarcticl 30,000,000 square
miles is occupied by the II belligerent
powers, and about ,000,o00,000 of the
! ,s00,000,000 human beings now on
earth are directly involved in the great
war.
Apportioning the area and population
between the two opposing groups, it will
be found that there is vast preponder
ance of both on the side of Britain and
her allies, which own 27,500,000 square
miles and have about S40,000,000 people
under their rule, against the 100000
square miles, and l60,000,000 people to
the credit of Germany, Austria Hungary
and Turkey,
If the affected areas are analyzed by
continents it viii be found that in Eu-
rope 100000 square miles out Of total
of 3,850000, and 3s0.000000 people out
of 475,000,O 00-or nearly so per cent.
in both cases--are at war.
In Asia the belligerent area amounts
to 100000 square miles Qeaying out
of account the interior of Arabia a
political no mans land, Of about mil
lion square miles,, the total area of
the continent being about l6,500,000I
square miles. Hence over 80 per cent.
is at war. OF the population of Asia,
475 100000 out of $4,000, 900 say 40h

per cent.-and l25,0O0,000 of the l37,-
DOC. 900 inhabitants over 90 per cent
are at war. The only neutral regions
are the Italian and Spanish colonies, |

whatever the income may be there is
little opportunity to save, but if re-
verses come it is plain to be seen where
much could have been saved to help over
the hard place. 1t is when everything is
going smoothly and calmly that it is
wise to put by something each week,
and there are those who, declare that it
makes no difference how small the in
come may be a certain amount of it
should be put aside to draw on in case
Of necessity or to start one in business
or to loan for the interest. There is a
vast difference between judicious saving
and parsimony, and the one who is able
to strike the former without the lat
ter will make the financial problem a
much easier thing than it is many times
supposed to be.
To be successful saver one must be
successful spender, and know how to
use money to the best advantage. There
may be silly trifing away of money
for what is of little account, and there
is the ability Of spending freely where
it is economy to do so, for the smallest
expenditures are not always the great
est economies.
There are those who dislike to spend
so much thought on money as they have
to in order to make sufficient amount
of it to meet expenses, but if one will
save a certain amount methodically, it
will take away much of the worry and
care often met through lack of a suffi
cient amount of money. 1t is usually
those who have too little who are
obliged to give the most of thought to
1t others who give an undue amount
of thought to it do so from choice, but
those who would be glad to place it fur
Their in the background will take the
first step in this direction by beginning
to be thrifty.-Christian Science Moni-
tor.

For chocolate layer cake take three
eggs and the same weight in butter,
sugar, and -four; one saltspoonful of
salt, and one half teaspoonful of vanilla
or almond Beat the butter and sugar

other.
For chocolate filling for cake melt four
ounces of chocolate; dilute it with three
tablespoonfuls of milk, and then add
cupful of sugar mixed with a we'll beaten
egg, and stir until thickened. When the
filling has been laid on, trim the outside

Belgians Say That the Ger.
mans Killed 1850
Civilians
MOVED DOWN
EN- MASSE
Machine Guns Were Turned
on Crowd in Front
of Church

| London, Nov. 2l.--Further charges OF
atrocities committed by the Germans in
Belgium, including the allegation that
total of at least 1850 civilians were
executed at Tamines, Dinant and in Bel
gan Luxembourg, were made by the Bel
gian commission in an additional report
made public by the war bureau yester-
day Describing the alleged massacres
the report says:
AT Tamines, 450 men were collected
in front of the church and shot down by
machine guns; 264 houses We're sacked
and burned. Many persons, including
women and children, were burned in
their homes. Others were shot in the
fields while endeayoring to escape. The
total number of victims was $50"
Similar scenes were enacted at Dinart,
the report declares. More than 700 in
habtants were killed and only 200
houses out of 400 remain standing.
"The worst excuses were in the Bel
gian province of Luxembourg" the state
ment continues. Everywhere the plum
dering was systematic and complete.
Executions en- masse in various villages
OF this province alone totalled 1000.
Three thousand houses swere burned.
Rape was common.
In most villages the soldiers did not
even allege they were attacked by the
populace. Inhabitants say the only ex-
plicable grounds for che crimes were
that the soldiers were drunk and took
pleasure in infiicting suffering, were an
gered by the unexpected resistance of
the Belgian army or were under orders
for systematic destruction from their
superiors."

Save Money By Paying Cash.

II is not what one earns but what one
saves that leads to financial independ-
ence, and in saving money one of the
greatest helps is to "pay as you GO"
The housewife who runs bill at the
grocery, at the dry goods store, and
with every tradesman who supplies the
needs Of the home is likely to make
many purchases which could well be
avoided II one paid cash. Ii is so easy
TO say, Charge IT," either thinking that
the reckoning day Is almost month
away or not thinking of the time when
actual money will have to be paid. 1t is
ALMOST as easy TO write check as it
is to say "Charge it," and when there
Is no money seen in the transaction,
there are almost sure TO be items on
the bill that could have been done with
out.
Keeping track Of what is earned and
what is saved viii help one to keep the
expenditures within the limit, and il is
noticeable that some of the wealthy
people are those who keep the closest
watch on their personal expenses. II is
so easy for the tastes and desires to in
crease with the size Of the purse that
