HOLLAND INCREASES ARMY.
Mere Than Half Million Soldiers 4,
BE Ready TO Take Field.

More Than Half Million Soldiers e
Be Ready TO Take Field.
Correspondence of Associated Press
The Hague, Netherlands, Aug. 2.-By
the adoption Of the landstrum bill on
July 30 the total number Of trained
soldiers In Holland will be increased
eventually to approximately $4,000
instead Of $4,000 who are now under
arms.
The bill provides for the calling up
of men who hitherto have been re-
leased from service. These include
certain categories Of students; those
who are supporting families and those
who have been relieved from military
duty because they have brothers all
ready serving.
The yearly class Of military age
averages about $4,000 Of which only
$4,000 are Incorporated in the army.
OF the $4,000 who escape service $1,000
are regarded as physically unfit and
$4,000 are relieved for causes above
mentioned.
The new law calls Systematically to
the colors those men who were former
ly relieved. The youngest class which
Is due to present itself in 1915 will be
incorporated Immediately for four
months training. At the same time an
equal number of the Oldest men who
have been serving since mobilization
will be sent to their homes. Thus the
army actually with the colors will re-
main at the same strength as now.
Men liable. who We're not called up in
1914. will be called up for similar
period after the 1915 class has COM
pleted It's course and the next Oldest
class Of men will be automatically re-
lieved. Then will follow the class OF
1918 and other classes in order until
all fit men up to thirty years of age
have received military training. The
whole $50, 900 will be available for i'm
mediate mobilization in the event OF
the country being endangered.
Formerly the number Of men re-
lieved from military service was
greater than now. averaging for the
last ten years $4,000 yearly, 50 the total
increase in the number OF trained men
is expected to reach about 100000.
It was Originally intended that the
should include all men up
to forty but strong opposition caused
the government to change its plan in
this respect.

WOMEN Of EGYPT
DEMAND FREEDOM

CAIRO, July ia great movement
is on foot in Egypt for the emancipa-
ton of woman Notwithstanding the
roar Of battle with Unreasonable dis
lance of the capital the movement Is
steadily taking shape. Without doubt
II will bring about a great radical
change In this time-bound land and
effect a great step towards the mod
ernization OF the country.
A stumbling-block exists at the mo.
ment in the religious aspect of the
case, as Moslem will never abate one
jot or title of his faith. But the
difficulty is not insuperable. The con-
servatives hold that there Is nothing
in the Koran which shames a woman
to display her features. 1t rests with
the Rector Of FL Azher and the Grand
Multi, the highest opponents Of
Moslem Law, to settle this difference,
II they can be persuaded to do SO.
As q matter Of fact, many of the
Egyptian princesses and other ladies
of high degree at Cairo and elsewhere,
have SO far bent to modern customs as
to wear ve:.s Of light muslin fabric
OF the finest texture, which rather
lends to their attractiveness, and have
discarded the old "bourkah," or heavy
veil, worn In many parts Of the coun-
try. On the other hand, the peasant
woman goes about with an uncovered
face all the time.

Cynthia went away the day follow
ing the Hamilton's alteration with
regard to Duval. Isabel saw her go
with a sensation OF relief. She had
felt uncomfortable in the maids pres
ence ever since Cynthia had handed
Mr.. Duval's handkerchief to John.
Isabel suspected that the girl had
been sure that the handkerchief was
not her masters and had chosen this
way of getting back" at her mistress
for having discharged her The wife
wanted to forget the whole episode.
John made this easier by ignoring the
subject entirely.
He was, in fact, unwilling to re.
open a disagreeable discussion. He
had thought out the matter for him
self and had reached a satisfactory
conclusion. He had at first been very
angry with Isabel. but as the day pro-
crossed and things at the office went
smoothly-as his head stopped aching
and his mind became clearer-he pom
dered the subject sanely and calmly.
He knew that Isabel had spoken the
truth to him.
She had been wrong in accepting
DuvaIs escort without consulting her
husband, yet John was sure she would
never do so again. She had been
moved to this action by feminine pique
at a private appointment he had made
with Adelaide Simmons. After all
had Isabel not loved him she would
not have been so jealous. She had
seen in what an embarrassing position
her recklessness had placed her and
had learned her lesson. Her husband
would say nothing more about the at

Second: The commission desires to
obtain a broad survey Of industrial
conditions as they may be applied to
certain phases of export trade.
Third: Informal hearings will be
