WARS BAD EFFECT
 ON VIENNA TRADE
Tax Books for 1915 Tell of Deteriorated Finances;
 Brighter Side.

ZURICH, Switzerland, Jan. 15.- Correspondence of The Associated Press)-Vienna's taxbooks for 1915 revealed the disastrous effects of the war on the trade of the city.
 For the current year, the first whole year of the war, the applicants for concessions for new businesses de- creased more than one-half compared with peace years. In 1913 the magis- trates had nearly twelve hundred ap- plicants for trade concessions; this year the number fell to little over five hundred.
 In normal years at least twice as many men as women have opened up new businesses of various kinds. This year the women have caught up with the men. So many men have gone to the front, and so many have been killed and wounded that the women are coming in creased numbers to take their places.
 And also in the different kinds of trade and business great changes have taken place. Of some three thousand meat and grocery markets and delicatessen stores in the city, more than one-fifth have gone out of business. and more than 20 per cent of the butchers have closed their mar kets. The bakers, too, are in similar plight, hundreds of them closing be- cause they could get no flour, only for these the chances are better, in that they will be able to start up again when the war is over.
 But while official statistics tell such a depressing story, Americans who have been in Vienna recently come away with the impression that, gener- ally speaking, everything there is flourishing. The opera house and theatres there are crowded night after night, cafes and restaurants are filled, and the streets thronged with well dressed men and women. Holiday trade was much betted than a year ago. At the beginning of the war all the dealers in articles of luxury. jewel lers, fashionable dressmakers, pie ture stores and dealers in Viennese art goods, and the like, feared they would be ruined. Their trade came to a standstill. Some of the most pros porous stores hardly saw a customer in day. one of them, leading jew eler in fact, didn't take in enough in week to pay his electric light bill.
 But now everything is changed and the stores are doing capital trade. Millions of crowns are in circulation. New fortunes have been made almost overnight. Small business men and manufacturers employing only score or two of workmen, have become rich ; skilled trade, experts are earning tre- mendous wages, farmer shave been selling their stock for fabulous sums and officers are back from the front with accumulated pay for months which they are eager to get rid of.
 Not in years has there been such a demand for high grade goods. The fur stores are all crowded with GUS toners, all wanting to buy sables, chincilla, Persian lamb and other eX pensive skins. The fashionable dress makers have more than they can do, and even the smaller stores report an i excellent trade Only in the very poorest districts are the storekeepers complaining of hard times.

BRAINS BETTER THAN CLOTHES MRS. ROSS
 TELLS CLUbWOMEN
President of State Federation
 Advises Delegates to Tue son Convention to Attend Regardless Lack of Finery.

Holding that it is the economic and commercial duty of every women who can afford it to buy expensive and elegant clothes, yet putting such material things lower in the scale of woman's desire than intellectual at tainments, Mrs. Henry D. Ross. presi- dent of the State Federation of Wo- mems clubs, deals with that bugaboo that hides in every womans closet, Nothing-to-wear," in an address to club women. calling attention to the forthcoming convention of the federa- tion in Tucson.
 Come with whatever you happen to have" urges the state president.
 To quote from her address:
 Concerning clothes: Unfortunately one of the everpresent problems of womenkind Let us not allow this mighty giant to frishten us away from the joys of this convention. Let us come with what we happen to have determined to enjoy ourselves to the fullest and get the inspiration and blessing that swells us.
 ''I would not give so much import ance to this subject myself, except that it has constantly thrust itself be-i fore me during my recent visiting trips. I hear everywhere the same echo. I can afford the expense of the trip, but everyone will be dressed up, and I've nothing to wear In the smaller. towns, and the rural districts it is said: We have no use for dressy clothes, and we don't want to buy them for the convention
 Now it seems to me that genuine club women should look above the material. on towards the inspirational and the ideal, and if they can be cleanly, neatly and simply kowned, that should suffice. Nor should the broad-minded club woman be selfish enough to deprive the women who can afford elegant and stylish clothes the privilege of wearing them. She should be above envy or malice in this mat ter, and only rejoice that some sister is fortunate enough to have them; and moreover, she should enjoy look ing at them for the beauty of the pie ture-keeping always in mind that fact, that it is the economic and com mercial duty of every woman who can afford to buy elegant and ex- pensive clothes to GO so.
 Think of the effect upon the busi- ness of our country should every wo- man cease buying only just what she could get along with. Business in ev- cry community would soon be crip- pied and hundreds of our laboring people would be without means to live Our dressmakers, seamstresses, clerks, maids and large army of other wage earners would be justly clamoring against this false economy. Let those who can afford luXuries, where no one suffers for it, have them, and let all the rest be big and broad enough to be happy without them.
 Do you remember what Robert Louis Stevenson said about the world and beautiful things? Well, they're everywhere, and there are lots besides clothes. Remember this: The true woman is not going to snub you be- cause she is better dressed, and you cannot afford to be hurt by any other kind.
 But let us dismiss this troublesome subject by saying: If necessary make sacrifice to come to this conven- tion."

DR. DARNELL WILL
 PRACTICE LITTLE ROCK
Will Take Post Graduate Course Under Dr. Weisenburg, of Philadelphia, One of Worlds Greatest NeurOlOgists.

Little Rock, Dec. 14.-Dr. K. F. Darnell, who has resigned as assist ant superintendent of the State Hos pital for Nervous Diseases as a re- suit of the wrangle which resulted in the discharge of pr. E. P. Bledsoe, will go to Philadel phia to take a post graduate course under Dr. Weisen- burg, one of the worlds greatest neu- 1 rologists. He will then return to Little Rock to enter upon the practice, making speciality of diseases of the mind. His resignation becomes eff fective next Monday, Dec. IS. He has had twenty years experience in this work, and has been in four institu- tions, having spent four years in the Arkansas asylum. He is a member of the American Medico- Psychological Association and the American Medical Association.
 The quarrel which resulted in the discharge of Dr. Bledsoe and the re- signation of half dozen members of the medical staff, began last May, with the refusal of Dr. Bledsoe to dis charge certain members of the staff.
 In their dissenting opinion, Justices Wood and Hart of the Supreme Court, say: It may be seriously doubted If sufficient notice was given Dr. Bled- soc to meet the charges, but 1 make no point on this. l only mention this in connection with the other facts to show that the Board did not act in a very judicial frame of mind; and that the charges did not emanate from minds desirous of exercising calm and deliberate judgment in Investigating them. l think the whole matter re- suited from the quarrel in regard to the removal of certain members of the medical staff, and other subordin- ates, and that the evidence as dis closed by the whole record did not afford any reasonable ground for the action of the Board in removing Dr. Bledsoe

X-RAY MACHINE INSTALLED
 AT GREESON SANITARIUM

An X-Ray machine of the latest type, and made by Max Wocher X Son, has just been installed at the Greeson Sanitarium in this city, by Drs. A. L. and c. A. Buchanan and N. H. Kennedy.
 The machine is scientifically con structed so that there is absolutely no danger of X-Ray burns to the op- orator or the patient. an important improvement over the old style K Ray, yet it is much more simple in construction.
 Prescott now can claim the distinc- ton of being able to handle any case requiring the aid of the X-Ray, such as radiology and treatments of var ious natures. It is also invaluable to the dentist in the way of locating the trouble at the root of the teeth, photographs of which can be made on this machine in a few minutes.
 The owners state that the use of the machine is open to any physician in the city, and inspection of same is invited.

DYING, URGES PURCHASE

Relief Needed at Home More Than if War Stricken Nations, He Writes

Only a few hours before his death from tuberculosis a man in Arizona wrote letter to a California editor from which the following significant extracts are quoted:
 "Anything that will encourage and help the Anti Tuberculosis Society in it's fight against Tuberculosis is of great importance to any community, and the fact that nearly all of the money collected from the sale of these little Red Cross Seals is spent in the community where the stamps are sold should make it doubly interesting to every one.
 Tt is not in Belgium or the far East alone that relief is badly needed, but right here at home in our beloved America. Here in the state of Ari- zona thousands of dollars are needed every year to carry on this relief work In the little town of p, not over 1000 miles away from our doorstep, you can see some pitiful cases, cases where the father of two or three little children lies day after day in poorly furnished quarters, perhaps amid un-

In many of the cases the income has been entirely cut off for some time and the family mere ly exist on what little the wife can earn by washing and sewing and on what the charitable societies are able to give them.
 And there is not the slightest doubt that such conditions are dupli- cated right at home and everywhere. Ask those who have in charge the spending of this money if there is likely to be enough to relieve one-half of the suffering from tuberculosis among the poor. The answer will be,
