Sympathy With sufferers.

Probably nothing is more stimulating

the feeling that in spite of their own
helplessness they themselves can still
be helpful to others The Shut-in so

more bearable for many persons who
are confined to their rooms or their
houses. Nothing disturbs a certain
class of patients SO much as to be con-
stantly In contact with those who are
I'm good health and strength and whom
they can scarcely help but envy. To
be brought into touch with those for
whom they themselves can feel is a
precious source of consolation and up
lift. Pity is a luxury TO be enjoyed.
but no human being likes to be pitied
or to feel that he is an object OF pity.
To be conscious of some advantage In

facts be proves are these:
Rains with a constantly positive
charge are much more frequent than
those that change TO negative. The
passage from positive to q negative
charge corresponds to a momentary

Of positive electricity brought by the
rain is fifteen times greater than that

VICTORY IN NEVADA AND MONTANA
ENJOYED BY SUFFRAGE DELEGATES

The victor in Nevada was attributed
by Miss Mary Stewart to thorough or
ganiZation in each county.
A resolution signed by the delegates
of the seven campaign states" express
ing appreciation of the work of DIR. Anna
Howard Shaw, was presented to the
head of the national organization. 1t was
taken to indicate that DIR. Shaw prob.
ably would have the support OF the
campaign states for reelection.
"A brief discussion of the report of
the congressional committee followed the
presentation of the report today by its
chairman, Mrs, Medili Mccormick. Miss
Thresa Cowley of Boston during the dis
cussion today declared that the commit
tee had made a mistake in putting Sem
ator Lodge on its black list" because
she said. that action had aroused sthe
senator's antagonism. Miss Kate Cor
don of New Orleans and Mrs. Maud
Wood Park of Boston expressed the be-
lief that efforts to obtain suffrage
through state amendment were more i'm
portant than the committees work on
behalf of the federal amendment plan.

GERMAN Reservoirs
TOTAL 100000

London Nov. 12f.--According to the
Cologne Gazette the combined strength
of the German and Austrian reserves
is 100000 men. This gigantic to-
tai is composed of 100000 volunteers
in Germany and 100000 in Austria and
recruits of the 1914 CONSUMPTION Of
both countries of 100000 each.
This makes total of 1850. 600, but
according to the Cologne paper this
estimate is altogether incomplete. In
Germany as in Austria that portion of
the Landsturm which has not yet seen
any service is almost as good as un-
touched and according to the best au-
thorities this untouched Lendsturln
amounts for Germany to 100000 men.
They are between the ages of 20 and
45. Already a vast majority of these
men has been registered by the mill
tary authorities as suitable. Only p
very small percentage may be regard
ed as hardly fit for the front. but
they are capable of other military du-
ties.
In Austria this untouched Lands
turn is placed at 100000, making
100000 for both countries. If g.
100000 are deducted from this total
for volunteers, who already are count
ed, We get a total of IA. 900 as still
available for active military service.
and if the age limit is raised from As
to so years and the limit at the 9TH
er end be reduced from twenty to
eighteen years we obtain an additional
3,750,000, which brings the total 10
$4,000, coo
