S57 Embroidery Design.

Could anything be daintier than thi1 little frock1 It Is made of fine French nainsook and Is embroidered in an altoj gether childlike and simple design. All the tucks are hand-sewed and it is just the prettiest little garment that could be made, yet means only slight labor. The sleeves being cut in Japanese stylel there are only two seams and the eml broidery, while effective, Is not elaborate but, as matter of course, other trimmina could be substituted or plain dress made and this model Is so extremely simple that 1t could be used for the dimity frock oj the morning quite as well as for the fna lawn dress of the afternoon. There ard tuCks over the shoulders and these can b6 sewed either by hand or by machine Tn thJ back view Is suggestion for trimming with lace banding and insertion and thai treatment Is pretty one. All the ma, terials that are used for tiny tots frock, are appropriate.
 For the 2-year size will be needed 1s, yards of material 27 inches wide, or I33 yards 5o or A. For the embroidery, us@ design No. s57. As shown in the back view. the dress will require 2 F yards O insertion with 313 yards of edging.

Get a 10-Cent box now
 Are you keeping your liver, stomach and bowels clean, pure and fresh with Cascarets-or merely forcing a pas sageway every few days with salts. cathartic pills or castor oil? This is important.
 Cascarets immediately cleanse the stomach, remove the sour, undi- gested and fermenting food and foul gases; take the excess bile from the liver and carry out of the system the constipated waste matter and poison in the bowels.
 No odds how sick, headachy. bilious and constipated you feel, Cascaret tonight will straighten you out bv morning. They work while you sleep. A 1O-cent box from your druggist will keep your head clear, stomach sweet and your liver and bowels reg ular for months. Don't forget the children--their little insides need a gentle cleansing, too.

HAS ITS
WAR HEROES

NEW YORK. July MANY
tales OF heroism. rivaling the deeds
of the fighters In the trenches. have
been told of American college men
who are serving as ambulance and
hospital workers in practically all
the theaters OF the great war.
Robert A. McClay, OF New York,
Columbia ~, is one OF the men who
have won the plaudits of the
French.
Bob" McClay Is in command Of
an entire train of motor ambulances
manned by American college stu
dents and graduates.
When German Zeppelins raided
Dunkirk, hurting bombs down upon
the streets and buildings, none Of
the ambulance corps attached to the
army organizations of the Allies left
their bombproof shelters. McClay,
however. shouted to his American
college boys to man their ambu.
lances, and set an example by leap
ing to the steering wheel Of the
nearest one.
In two minutes the American vol
unteer rescue force was picking up
dead and wounded non-combatants
from the streets, where they had
been struck down by German ex-
plosives dropped from the clouds.
The American ambulance force did
not stop until the last Wounded per-
son had been picked up and the last
Zeppelin had sailed away from Dun
kirk.
The last ambulance, to leave Zuy-
devote with wounded French sol.
diers, when a terrific aerial raid by
the German forces compelled the
surgeons in chief to order immedi-
ate evacuation OF the village. was
an American car manned by college
lads. The American boys succeeded
In taking to a distant point OF SAFE
ty not only several thousand wound
ed men, but the entire hospital sup
plies and equipment. This was done
so rapidly and efficiently as to bring
hearty words of praise from nign
officers OF the French army.

my employer had seen him scarce
ly at all since he had employed me-
Perhaps three or four times i had
passed him In the halls or about the
offices. when he had nodded to me
almost as though he did not see me-
But now he was looking from me to
this strange man with quick. pierc'
ing glances; and somehow ! felt no
relief at sight Of him. but only that
here might be another enemy. My
position had not relaxed, and my
hands were still clenched when Mr..
Carroll spoke.
We'll. WELL" he asked. whats
all thls?"
Apparently his words were q play
for time. He saw something was
really the matter, but he did not
wish to get into any quarrel until
he had to. He was not the type of
man who sides with the weaker per.
son instinctively The strange man
who had kissed me spoke before
could.
Whats the matter with your

The tears started to my eyes. I
knew now the man who employed
me was not going to protect me. I
would have to fight this out by my

II can't help IT," said. II asked
this person before. and repeat It,
how dared he come up behind me

lican house leader, and John J. Fits

through what II called the Under
wood amendment" to the reclama-
ton extension act. providing that
hereafter congress should make al
appropriations for \ reclamation
work. The bill Is suspicious enough
for the sole reason that these three
backed IT, II IL said that Lane
made no strong fight against 1t.
Four months after the passage Of
this legislation. on Dec. 3. 1914.
Newell received short letter from
Secretary Of the Interior Lane.
transferring him to the position OF
consulting engineer" and putting
him on the same basis as other con-
sulting engineers.
Still later Secretary Lane abol-
ished the once OF director OF the
reclamation service. consolidating
the positions of chief engineer and
director. with A. p. Davis AZ direc-
tor and chief engineer.
with this action Newell ceased
to hold any position except that OF
consulting engineer. and ceased to
exercise any authority over the pol
icy OF the service whatever.
A letter soon followed from Sec
Rotary Lane informing Newell that
on March 8 his Job as consulting
engineer" at a definite monthly sal
airy, would terminate. except that II
his advice should be needed such
advice paid for on per diem basis.
This left Newell on the sidewalk.
His activities as q consulting ofhcer
OF the service may be judged from
the fact that he is now earning his
living delivering lectures at the
University Of Illinois.
Newell has spent his life In the
government service at q compare
lively meager salary.
His was the brain that conceived
and carried out the great reclama-
ton works.
He was'the man who was invest-
gated again and again. and always
came out with a clean record.
Newell was the first man In the
government service to conceive the
idea OF water conservation. He was
the man who inspired the engineer.
ing force under him. as Goethals In
spired that force on the canal zone.
And now that the work Is begin
ming to bear fruit. Newell Is quietly
shelveo.

these are the towards. While some
there are who instinctively rush TO

Thus I stood with my hands pin

startled to cry out. For few mo-
ments ! did not realize what had
happened. tried TO turn my head
to see who was behind me. and l
could not. Then I looked In the mir
ror and saw him; an apparently
strange man! He was smiling at
our reflection over my shoulder, and
his face was pink with suppressed
laughter. Apparently he had no
sense OF the full insult Of what he
was doing. I stared at him in the
mirror. and he grinned back at me.
Then he spoke.
WELL" he asked lightly, how do
you like being hugged!"
And without further ado he kissed
me on the back Of my neck where
my white collar turned away from
my black silk waist His touch cleo
tr1fied me into action. I had not
realized before that I was 80 strong.
With but one quick movement. and
with little effort of which was
aware. flung him from me so sharp
ly he staggered across the room and
caught at q table for support. At
once the color OF his face changed
from the pink Of amusement to the
deep red Of rage.
You little devil!" he roared.

ST. MICHAEL'S STUDENT
DROWNED IN WINOOSKI
Charles Grisomi Was With Several Other
Boys While Swimming-He Grabbed
for Branch Which Broke and
He Never Appeared Again.

Burlington, June THE Winooski riv.
er has claimed its first victim of the sea
son in the person of Charles Grisomi, n
student at st. Michaeps college, who
was drowned yesterday afternoon when
he and five companions were in swim
ming. The drowning took place near
the point of the large island around the
bend from the gorge and whether the
young lad could swim or not is not
known, but the opinion is given out by
his companions that he was taken with
cramps.
When he was first noticed he made a
grab for branch OF a tree which broke
and he went to the bottom. His body
has not been recovered. In this section
OF the river there are many holes and
some run quite deep.
The boys at the college had always
been forbidden to 90 in swimming in
the river or any body Of water unless
accompanied by one Of the faculty at
the college, Grisomi was the son OF
Mr.. and Mrs, Charles Griomi OF Lyndon
willie and has been a student at the col,
lege since last fall. He was IA years
old.
