UNDER CONSTANT THREAT
 OF PILLAGE AND MASSACRE
Armenian Women and Girls Have Gone Through Unusual Conditions
Especial to The Bulletin )

Especial to The Bulletin.)
 Washington, D. C.. Dec. 2.-"Ar- menian women and girls, who are much less known in this country than are their husbands and brothers, have born a heavier fate than the women of any other Christian people. Through many generations. as far back as their traditions run, they have pass ed their lives, brought up their chill dren, and labored steadily toward the upbuilding of their family fortunes, under the, continual threats of pillage and massAcre. What kind of women such a long history of suffering and insecurity has evolved, is told in a study just prepared for the National Geographic Society by Hester Don aldson Jenkins, who, as a teacher in the Near East and as a lover of Ar menia, has had the opportunity to look behind the veil of the Armenian woman's apathy. She writes:
 Armenian women are full of sen- timent and emotion, and unless they have been repressed by harsh exper- fence they are unrestrained in ex- pressiou. As students they differ among themselves, ranging all the way from dense stupidity to bril- iance, but averaging high in their studies. When the home school was founded, its first students were Ar
 
 and for many years. the Armenians were the most numerous of the na- tionalities present Scutari, where the college was situated until it moved across the Bosphorus last year, was an Armenian quarter, so that long after Greeks and Bulgarians came in larger numbers into the boarding colleges the day scholars were pre- dominantly Armenian.
 Beneath eSpreSsionless masks which the average Armenian woman wears to all of the world that is strange to her, Miss Jenkins found that there lurked spirit of much more intense, violent, and consuming sort than us- ual among the women of those lands whose family runs in better guarded the emotional nature of the Armen- ian women Miss Jenkins tells:
 When the news of the death of a schoolmate reached one of our dor mitories the girls wept and even screamed with such abandon that one of them became i'll and had to go home. Yet under torture and perse- cution these women have shown mar velous patience and endurance"
 The Armenians have dramatic ability. I we'll remember one strong ly featured Armenian girl who acted Sanscrit play. I recall in that same year a pretty Armenian girl who played the part of Toinette in Le Malade Imaginaire' with more chrarm and piquancy than I have ever seen in any American production of that classic.
 A strain of unconscious egotism is one of the effects of persecution sturdily borne:
 Where there is so vigorous a na- tional pride, some personal conceit would naturally follow. That is not always the case; some of the most modest and humble of women are among my Armenian friends; but the characteristic expression of com placency that one often hears is: He is a fine man! he likes mel
 Miss Jenkins, as commentary upon the effects which the tragedy Of the Armenian race has had upon its women, describes the following types of Armenian girl students. who are

NERVOUS BREAKDOWN
stanford, Conn, Nurse Tells How
 She Found Health

Stamford. Conn.-'I am 4 nurse and suffered from a nervous break down. had no appetite and could not sleep at night, and nothing seemed to help me. By chance I heard of Vinol. and after taking the first bottle I noticed an Improvement, and four bottles made me we'll and strong. If gave me hearty appetite, so I can sleep soundly night or day. consider vinol a<wonderful tonic.' Edith R. Forbes Stamford. Conn
 The reason Vfnol is SC successful in overcoming such conditions is be- cause it is a constitutional remedy and goes to the seat of the trouble. It is the greatest strength creator we know-due to the extractive medici- nal elements of fresh cod iivers with out oil, combined with peptonate of iron and beef peptone, all dissolved in a pure medicinal wine
 We have seen so many wonderful recoveries like this right here in Nor wich caused by Vipol that we feel perfectly safe in offering to return
 money in every such case where Vino 1 fails to benefit. Geo. G. Engler, Broad l way Pharmacy, Norwich.

THEFTs IN MoHEGAN
 BY MYSTERIOUS MAN.
Fleet of Foot and Said to Look Like .
 Wild Man,

Chickens, milk cans, -water pails and mattresses have disappeared from farms in the neighborhood of Mohegan at various times lately, and so far the identity of the thief remains a mys- tery. Although he has been seen once or twice, it was impossible to get near enough to seize him. as those who have seen him say that he has the fleetness and appearance of a wild man. Edward McMahon and Samuel Sussman have been the principal losers. Recently Edward OBrien saw a man heading for the woods with two of his milk pails. MT. OFBrien yelled to him to drop the pails. and he did, but he kept on going and escaped.
