The appeal for the home for cats is

five cat hospitals. where so per cent
of the patients are destroyed painlessly

as guests. A cart calls for patients,

a night bell, SO that patients may be

wishing to get rid of their pets may
do SO at a moderate fee.

WOMAN DOCTORS IN DEMAND.
Take Up Mems Practices as Preju-
dices Are Cast Aside in London.

Correspondence OF the ASSOCIATED Press.
LONDON. September 5.-The demand
for woman doctors exceeds the supply,
according to a statement by the London
School of Medicine for Women. Even
the posts Of house physician and houae
surgeon in the hospitals. heretofore
always held by men. are offered to
women. This is particularly true of
the provincial hospitals. Women are
also taking the practices of men who
have gone to the front. Boards of
guardians are SO hard up for doctors
that, casting aside their inherited pref
udices. they offer positions to women
at increased salary. Before the war
an infrmary doctor in the Whitechapsl
district. who was always a man, re-
ceived only $500 year and emoluments.
Now the same post is advertised for
woman at 81 900 and emoluments.
The Womens Medical School of Lon
don has trained 600 woman doctors now
in practice, and has 220 students on its
rolls. The class entering the autumn
terms is larger by sixty applicants than
ever before.

PERISC0PES USED ON RIFLES.
Turks Can't Find Anything to Shoot
at When Facing Muzzles.

SofF0ponnenco OF the Associated Press.
MELBOURNE. Australia, August IL
Maj. Gen. Birdwood, who commands the
Australasian troops engaged at the
Dardanelles. has lately written a letter
to the governor general of the common
wealth, Sir Ronald Munro Ferguson. in
which he SAYS:
"Our complete moral superiority over
the Turk Is partly due to the very clever
invention Of a man named Beach. who
produced . periscopic rife. When we got
here we denuded the whole Of our trans
ports OF their looking glasses, and made
up some 1000 periscopes on our little
beach. This man then made a yery
simple devioe. The result is the Turk
only secs the muzzle Of Q rife coming
over the parapet without anything be-
hind II to shoot at. and We understand
from prisoners that he dislikes this in
tensely."
In connection with the foreeoinr. the
following extract from the army CORDS
orders IL cited by tho commonwealth
minister Of defense:
1.-The army corps commander wishes to
record his appreciation Of the clever
invention Of a periscopic attachment for
the rife: the work Of Lance Corporal
w. c. B. Beach, I'd Battalion, Aus
tralian Imperial Force. AS. SC far Is
known. this invention has not been tried
in France. the lieutenant general COM
mandtng has forwarded the idea to Lord
Kitchener for consideration"
