We quote her own worlds ''I had been tiooding. cramping and vomiting for five months and taking medicine from as good a doctor as tho country affords. but he did me no good. got tired of doctors medicine and sent tc the drug store for woman's medi- cine and the druggist sent me STELLA VITAE.

 "A minister who is not willing to sacrifice the pleasure that he may get out of the use of tobacco for his own good should do so for the good Of humanity Think of the ex- ample that is set by a tobaccousing preacher" he remarked

STOP
 BREAD GOING
 TO GERMANS
Scarcity of Flour and Grain in Holland Is Given as the
 Cause.
INFLUX IS CONDEMNED

THE HAGUE. Aug 31-Bread eX ports Co Belgium are to be stoppe, entirely owing Co the scarcity oi flour and grain in this country al though many ships with American wheat on board are on the way ] hither
 The "Bund" or society represent l ing neutral countries, in a communi cation to the newspapers condemn. the influx of German children into ! Holland. It says:
 These children are innocent vie tims of the war. but Holland ought not Co let the feelings of pity foi the children take precedence of tho many drawbacks involved in this ac ton on it's part"
 The Union assumes that Hollands action in admitting Geeman children may prolong the resistance of Ger many and therefore the war itself ] Several lawyers and other notable citizens send letters to the newspa per which they call attention to the fact that by feeding the little Ger mans. Holland may actually be help ing prolong the starvation of Bel gium Northern France, Poland and other districts.
 The Telcgraf prints an article drawing attention to Germany's meth ods Of reducing Paris by hunger in 1871, when 5000 children died of starvation, the besiegers not allow ing man. woman or child to leave the belcagured city. It also mentions the Zeppelin raids, the sinking of the passenger ships and Germany's cruel treatment of Belgian citizens. All these things are cited as reasons for withholding Hollands compass sion. The sum and substance Of most of these articles is Germany willed and provoked the war. It is only right that it should now suffer the consequences"
 Others object that while so many Dutch children are suffering from inadequate nourishment it is not pa triotic Co give the nations substance Go foreigners. In the meantime many many German and a few Belgian children are coming into Holland daily"

LONDON, Sept. l. Details oi the destruction of the Italian steam ship Letimbro by an Austrian sub marine have reached the British authorities. The story runs thus
 The steamer left Benghazi July 2S with 12S passengers and Q crew of 5S. It is declared that the sub marine fired @ shot as a signal to the vessel to stop and then almost at the same time fired torpedo. By 8 rapid change Of the ships course the captain of the Letimbrc avoided the torpedo The submar inc fired twenty-four shots. Then ,he Let.mbro signalcd that it sur rendered. but the submarine con tinued to fire and even directed shots at the boats which had been lowered One boat was struck by a proiectie and only few of those on board survived
 Some of the persons from this boat struggled to get into another which capsized in consequence. Severa other boats got away, the captain O. the vessel being in one of them. The submarine then torpedoed the Let imbro which sank Immediately. The captains boat passed three days ir the open sea and was finally picked up by the steamship Guerazzi There is no news Of the remaining boats the number of which is not stated. Capt. Scalia. a military surgeon who was wounded in the boat struck by the shota died before he arrived at Syracuse
 It is reported that the captain tried at the last moment to liberatC two Arabs on board the Letimbro who were being taken to Italy to un iergo terms Of Imprisonment. but the key to the chain by which they were bound could not be found anc consequently the prisoners went down with the ship. The secretary general of the government of Ben hazi was one of the survivors.
