two. Trenching is the main task in
modern army work.
Who needs physical exercise of the
finest kind should relieve one of these
workers for at least an hour. morning
and afternoon. 1t would create appe,

lethargic and much-abused stomach

clogged cells OF the lungs. 1t would
also give the lackadaisical dude some
idea OF the powers that constitute {

Let no purse-proud fool turn up hi

they be among the salt" of the earth
Each is worth regiment of non-pro

grown rich by hook and crook.
Every mans worth is measured by
his usefulness to society.
There is no aristocracy in our free
country, except that of honest toll

The true American abhors the degen

Released From Fifty Years
of Invalidism by Death
BY 4ssocia.cd Press

New York, Feb. 11.-Miss Mollie
Fancher, who celebrated her golden
jubilee as an invalid eight days ago,
died to-day at her home in Brook
lyn.
Miss Fancher was known to thou
sands of people all over the world
through the extraordinary correspon-
dence she built up during the half
century of her invaliGism. Although
bedidden and only able to move her
right arm, She worked increasingly at
knitting and embroidery and is said
to have used up 100000 pounds Of
worsted.
In 1866, vhen Miss Fancher was
II years old and noted FOR her beauty,
she was thrown from her horse and
terribly injured. a year later she was
the victim of street car accident
which deprived her OF the use OF all
her limbs except her right arm. For
nine years she remained in q trance
like condition during which period
her friends insisted she was clairvoy-
ant. II was in these years that she
built up her correspondence, dictat-
ing a total of $500 letters. During the
fifty years of her Imprisonment in a
sick room Miss Fancher'S chief nour-
ishment was the juice OF fruits.

The German sea forces therefore will
be ordered to treat such vessels as
Warships after a short interval granted
