nesses. Among them was the man
who had bayoneted his former lieu
tenant. and two others who identi-
ned him. The facts were plain, indis-
putable. Jan Radymno was questioned.
He admitted everything-in a thick
voice. for the thrust had lacerated
his tongue-but without hinching.
Two Of the five in the court-martial
were in favor of having the prisoner
taken to headquarters, some ten miles
of; two others. including Captain Eye
dotoff. wanted sentence pronounced
and executed at once. The decision
rested with the general. He said that
inasmuch as responsibility regarding
operations in the woods had been con-
f1ded to him he was In favor Of imme-
diate sentence The two captains nod
ded their heads. Jan Radymno had
been gallant officer. good comrade.
but this was a plain case.
General Pronounees Sentence.
So the general in a cold, inflexible
voice pronounced sentence. Then he
said. as an afterthought: Have you
some wish to express?" Jan Radymno
took one step forward, leaned hard on
the table and said: "I have q little
boy, Piotr. six years old. ask.

brought up as Pole-to remember, to

and to be informed how his father end

Then they took him away behind
the house. His uncle leaned against
the wall and shaded his eyes, but he

and hid his face In both hands. de

motionless near by, his head on his
breast. gazing at a faded photograph
OF his little boy. At last he lifted his
head. He stood up, removed his torn
blouse. and that showed his shirt in
shreds as well. He slowly moved to
the wall and put his back against It.
The sergeant OF the firing squad came
up with a handkerchief. Jan motioned
him away.
Then the old general. waiting. heard
the shot that meant his nephew's
death.

On the day after the visit of the
German Zeppelins there occurred in
Southwark-so a wireless message

versation:

Be KINDER TO YOURSELF
Women Are Often Victims Of Nervous
ness Because They Don't Know
How to Relax.

One Of the important things to know
In life. especially If you are woman,
Is how to let yourself alone, writes
Mary Carolyn Davies in the Mothers
Magazine. The ability to relax, the
art of being judiciously lazy, the tact
to let herself alone has saved many a
woman from a nervous breakdown.
We all know the housewife who nags
herself into such a state of conscien-
tlousness that she cannot rest. II she
lies down she is continually worrying
herself with thoughts Of the work that
she Is neglecting.
Much of the blame for this state of
affairs lies at the doors of the moth
ers. The mistake is In their training
OF their children, especially their
daughters. They are taught from ear
lest infancy to be kind to others, to
bear with them, to forgive them. to
help them; but from birth to death no
one ever tells them to be kind, also,
to themselves.
The woman who nags herself can
make herself more miserable than any
one else possibly could. She can make
her life more of nightmare than any
misfortune could possibly make 1t. II
such women could learn to be kinder
to themselves there is no doubt that
their own lives would be heightened;
and not only that. but the lives Of
those with whom they come In close
contact would be made far more pleas
ant.
