 God forbid that we should be drawn into war, but if We should be, America would seem once more to shakeherself of a dream and say Did any man deem that we were asleep?

They en- tered an encampment today at which they will be taught first aid to the wounded. bandage making. telegraphy and other wartime arts. The encamp ment is being held under the auspices of the women's section of the Navy League. Secretaries Baker and Dan iels and a large group of government officials and army and navy officers were included in the audience. The Presidents speech followed the form al raising of the American flag over the encampment.

WAR SUMMARY
(By Review Leased Wire)

The British troops and the Royal Irish Constabulary have brought about the surrender of all the rebel forces in Dublin a ndthe people of Irish capital for the first time in a week, are able to move freely about the city unendangered by the bullets of rebel snipers.
 In the country districts of the is lands, the rebels also are laying down their arms and quiet is said ro pre- vail in most of the places where dis order previously had been reported to exist. A large number of the 1000 prisoners taken in Dublin have been sent to England.
 The repulse by the French of pow erful German attacks around Dead Mans Hill and counter attacks to the north of Cumieres, have been followed by heavy German bombardment or these sectors and a continuation Of the shelling of Cote du Poivre and Douamont, northeast of the fortress. No fresh infantry attacks have been launched by the Germans.
 In sapping operations in the Ar gonne forest the French were enabled by the explosion of mine to take a portion of the crater.
 Nothing of importance has occurred along the northern section of the bat tie front in Russia, according to Der lin. but in the south the Austro Hungarians have been forced to with draw beIcre a counter attack by the Russians from trenches north of My nov. which they had previously cap tured.
 The British war craft, the armed Yacht Aegusa, and the mine sweeper Nasturitium have been sent to the bottom in the Mediterranean by com ing in contact with mines.

Socialist Leader Would Tell Capital To Do Fighting,
 He Says
fsy Review Leased Wire ]

NEW YORK, May Arthur NJ. Reimer, presidential candidate of the socialist labor party. in speech at a meeting held to ratify his nomination tonight declared that in the event of this country becoming involved in war, he and his followers would block the manufacture and transportation of munitions to the troops ina the field and would tell the capitalistic classes to do the fighting themselves.
 When you get it into your head that you are commodity and that you are bought and sold in the labor market" he told his audience, then you have come to a point when you are able to consider whether you have a country to defend"
 CharacteriZing the military prepar- edness program 'of the owning class" as hostile to the interest and lives of the working people, the national con vention adopted a resolution today which said in part:
 ''The only national defense for the workers attention is the kind that ccntemplates defense of theiar own class interests against the only real enemy, the capitalist class. irrespec tive of. the country and to prepare by organization to seize the power of gov ernment and take possession of in dustries in all countries to the end that the socialists shall be establish ed; establishing 6 community of econ omic welfare of the people. of all the countries and races. which must re- suit in abolishing wars"

IF KIDNEYS AND
 BLADDER BOTHER
Take a glass of Salts to flush out your Kidneys and neutralize irri-
 tating acids.

Kidney and Bladder weakness re- suit from uric acid, says a noted au- thority. The kidneys filter this acid from the blood and pass it on to the bladder, where it often remains to ir- ritate and infame. causing a burning, scalding sensation, or setting up an irritation at the neck of the bladder, obliging you to seek relief two or three times during the night. The sufferer is in constant dread, the wat CT passes sometimes with a scalding sensation and is very profuse; again. there is difficulty in avoiding it.
 Bladder weakness. most folks call it. because they cant control trina tion. While it is extremely annoying and sometimes very painful. this is really one of the most simple ail ments to overcome. Get about four ounces of lad Salts from your phar- macist and take tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast. con tinue this for two or three days. This will neutralize the acids in the urine so 1t is no longer d soure of irrita- tion to the bladder and urinary organs which then act normally again.
 lads Salts is inexpensive. harmless. and is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice combined with lithia. and is used by thousands Of folks who are subject to urinary disorders caus- cd by uric acid irritation. lad Salts is splendid for kidneys and causes nc bad effects whatever.
 Here you have pleasant. enerves- cent Whitewater drink. which quickly relieves bladder trouble

Reasonable Doubt"

Ordinarily everybody knows what
reasonable doubt means, and what
the law means when it says that the
prisoner cannot be convicted if the
jury has a reasonable doubt of his in
Docence. But when the Judge gives
a dozen instructions on reasonable
doubt it is clear that nobody could
understand what it meant.
Saint Augustine, when questioned
about a doctrine of the church, said:
IF you ask me, l don't know; but
if you don't ask me, l know very
we'll"
The result is, in any important case,
that the confused jury goes out to
find a verdict, taking with them an
armful of instructions. Half of these
instructions will tell them that if they
believe certain things, they must find
the prisoner guilty, and the other half
will tell them that if they believe other
things, they must acquit the prisoner;
and sometimes these instructions will
be so drawn that, upon the statement
of the same beliefs, one instruction
tells them to acquit the prisoner and
the other tells them to convict him.
So they do not know what to do and
probably toss up a penny on the yer.

urday Evening Post.

CAN LAUGH AT ToRPEDoES
ecuiiarly-constructed Ship That Has
Proved Itself to Be of Real
Value in Warfare.

Monitors of a very queer sort were
introduced not long ago at the Darda-
nelles by the allies. Amusing descrip-
tons of these craft have been printed
in London, but in spite of their ludi-
crous appearance it seems that they
are real factors. Some time ago when
n of the boats first put in at Kepha-
los harbor in the Aegean it caused
CONSERVATION. Instead of steaming in
like an ordinary wal vessel, 1t seemed
to waddle through the water like a
huge goose, and from a distance looked
as If 1t were showing its bow to the
stern. A large turret Is carried on a
high, fiat deck. This mounts two a.
inch rifles. Just below the surface of
the water the sides of the monitor
bulge out about ten feet and then
curve down. This peculiar hull con-
%struction accounts for the clumsy
movements of the vessel, but it is said

The ship is large and roomy. The
only armament it carries in addition
to the heavy guns are aerial rifles

TRAVELLING WITH A CELLO
instrument Declared to Be Almost as
Troublesome as a Baby or
a Donkey.

Travelling with a cello is almost as
good-and almost as bad-as travel
ing with a child. 1t helps you, for ex-
ample, in cultivating friendly relations
with fellow passengers. Suppose there
is a broken wheel, or the engineer is
waiting for No. rs to pass, or you are
stalled for three days in a blizzard
what's more jolly than to undress your
cello and play each of those present
the tune he would like to hear, and
lead the congregational singing of
Dixie" "Tipperary" and Home,
Sweet Home? A fiddle may even rem
der tenable one of those railway juno
tons which Stevenson cursed as the
nadir of intrinsic uninterestedness,
and which Mr.. Clayton Hamilton has
recently gloriied with such brio in the
Unpopular Review, Robert Haven
Schaufier writes in the Atlantic.
But this is only the bright side. In
some ways travelling with a cello is
as uncomfortable as travelling, not
only with a baby, but with a donkey.
Unless, indeed you have an instru-
inent with a convenient hinged door
in the back so that you may back it
full of pajamas, collars, brushes, MSS,
and so forth, thus dispensing with a
bag; or unless you can calk up its
F holes and use the instrument as a
canoe on occasion, a cello is about as
i~nconvenient a travelling companion as
the corpse in Stevenson's tale, which
would insist on getting into the wrong
kny.

ton TIE White House collection Of presidential ware is one of the most
%tereaung historical collections in the country, and an interesting story is
attached to the acquisition OF every piece of it.
The collection was begun with parts of sets of dinner services found in
the White House used by seven presidents. It was placed in two cabinets
in the lower east corridor Of the mansion, which were designed by Mrs.
Theodore Roosevelt
Eight shelves were filled with china used during the Lincoln, Grant
Hayes. Arthur, Harrison, Cleveland, Mckinley and Roosevelt administrations
This original collection has been augmented by gifts from descendants IF
friends Of the various presidents until 1t now fills four cabinets and ap-

Roosevelt ordered, and which is still used a the state set II isl Of beautiful

SOLDIERS WELL FED
France Takes Care of Her Sons
in the Field.
Their Welfare Is Considered as Mat
tiers of Moment by the Highest Az
thorities-cook Called Upon
to Undergo Grave Danger.

As far IS food goes, the French SOL
der lives well, if the ordinary pro-
gram of the French common people
is taken as a standard. His menu is
based on two solid meals a day, with
a breakfast of bread and coffee. There
is nothing the French soldier appreci-
ates so much as his morning coffee.
1t is brought to him in canvas buck
cts, sugared, but without milk, and,
like all French coffee, it is excellent.
If the weather is bad, there is usu-
ally a sip of rum from the company
rations 70 go with the coffee and
bread.
For dinner and supper the two great
staple dishes are ragout and pot-au-
feu. The ragout is made of stewed
meat, preferably mutton, highly sea-
soned. The p~ot-au-feu is boiled beef
and soup. The stew is generally thick
ened with dried beans OF rice, but the
pot-au-feu receives as many varieties
of vegetables as ingenious foraging
can muster, with always a plentiful
basis of potatoes.
Occasionally the French cooks even
close to the firing line vary the menu
with special dishes such as steaks,
brains, hearts and the like, which
they carry out to the men in the
trenches. 1t is a current remark in
France that the cook is the bravest
man in the regiment, and this is gen.
orally a tribute to the danger that
he sometimes has to undergo to carry
his dainties to the appreciative Poilus
who awaits his coming at the very
apex of the battle line.
The meat in its raw state is brought
up on the hoof to a point as neal the
lines as is conveniently safe, and there
slaughtered. Typical French economy
is. shown in this operation, for use is
made of every possible fragment of
the carcass. The side, bones, and I'M
eatable portions are carefully col
lected and sent back to the base to
be otherwise turned to advantage.
The cook of each mess sends his as
sistant each morning for the squads
share Of the butchers stores, and the
assistant receives promptly a great
piece of beef or mutton correspond
ing to the number of men to be fed.
The operation of carving the meat
is generally a matter Of great interest
to soldiers who happen to be off duty.
They gather in the vicinity of the
cooks tent or hut and admire or criti-
else the skill with which he under
takes the operation. Although some
Of the best cuts are often used in the
pot, there is an opportunity for the

ming off an occasional supply OF
steaks or chops for treatment in some
other manner.
The meat dishes by nc means com
plete the soldiers dinner. There is
the bread-and French bread is pro,
verbally excellent. 1t is baked in
loaves like a small milestone, and be
fore being served the crust is care
fully cut away, because in transporta.
ton and handling a certain amount
of dirt is bound to gather there.
Each nan is allowed g half pint OF
red wine with each meal, and the in.
dividual may provide himself with
fruit.
