that word. In the work which the Red

sary. This record should contain the
facts on which the action Of tho chapter
is based in the case Of each family. It
should contain the name Of the family.
number and ages Of children, a sum-
mary Of the family's own resources and a
statement showing whether help is also
being received from other sources, and. IL
so. how much. This information should
be retained until the work growing out
OF the Mexican disturbance is completed,
as 1t will be needed for reference from
time to time and will serve as basis for
a report when the work is finished.
Careful Methods Enioined.
Avoid haphazard. spasmodic and ir-
regular methods of administering re-
lief. This duty should be intrusted to
a strong, careful, unexcitable commit
tee. and all distribution should be di-
rected and controlled by that commit
tee. 1t is desirable that the collection
of information on which relief is given
should also be under the direction Of
this committee. A simple record should
be kept of all relief given out and to
whom given. At the beginning this
record may seem unimportant. but as
time passes it will be found indispen-
sable if effective and satisfactory work
is to be done. 1t will also be found
Of value in answer to criticism which
is certain, to arise.
No iron-clad rule should be laid
down as an answer to the question Of
giving relief by cash or supplies. In
general. it may be said that money
goes farther If 1t is expended by the
committee in buying relief supplies in
large quantities. at such discounts as
merchants will allow.
"On the other hand. it Is probable
that the recipients Of the help in q
majority of instances will be persons
who are accustomed to buying for their
households and know how to buy with
economy. With cash they can buy such
things as their families ordinarily use
and prefer. The organization for Civ
ing relief in money is simpler and less
cumbersome than that necessary for
supplies.
Accurate Account Essential.

work of relief herein described, chap

Statements at Variance.

According to the sworn statements
of the captain of steamer and seaman
who accompanied him to the subma-
LSrine. the commander of the latter stated
that he mistook the steamer for
cruiser. The statement is at variance
with the statement in the Austro Hun
xarian governments note that the cap
tain Of the submarine asserted a false
ssmaneuver on the part of the steamer
i prompted the submarine to continue to
;;hre.
4 The captain of the steamer swears
s,that he informed the commander of the
submarine that he had only sufficient
tprovisions to reach the port of Algiers.
& and that he would deliver provisions
Epnly under compulsion. He states posi-
4aveIy in his affidavit and in conversa-
fion with officials of the department
that he did not give provisions readily,
nor did he say IL was the duty of one
seaman TO help another, and that he
refused payment because he felt that
he was being compelled TO deliver food
in violation OF law. The statement of
the captain of the Petrolite is entirely
al variance with the report Of the sub
marine commander.
The correctness of the captains
opinion that the wounded seaman was
held as hostage to guarantee the de-
livery of food seems clear. Obviously
the commander Of the submarine had
no right to order the seaman TO remain
on board. The fact that this order was
given showed that the commander in
sisted that food was to be delivered to
him. otherwise the seaman would nat
Grally have accompanied the CAPTAIN
back TO his vessel The outrageous con-
duct OF the submarine commander and
eil the circumstances of the attack on
the Petrolite warranted the captain In
regarding himself being compelled
3n order to avoid further violence, to
deliver food to the commander of the
Submarine.

The SONS OF SORROW.

The most trifling incident may affect
your own destiny and the destiny of
those who come after you. History is
full Of. stories illustrating this fact,
and none Of them is more remarkable
than the story of Charles Samson de
Longval, who sacrificed everything for
love. One day, in the year 1862, he
was thrown from his horse; and as a
direct result Of this accident he and
seven of his descendants. for a period
Of 200 years, were Stunned Of men,
as though they were lepers. bearing
upon them the word "unclean."
Charles was the descendant Of q
once illustrious house. His forbears
were knights and soldiers under the
dukes of Normandy. and had distin-
guished themselves for valor upon div
ers fields. They took part In William
the Conqueror's little basket picnic in

American Hardware the Best.

American-made hammers lead the
world not only In quality and work
manship but In price, the adj eye fea-
ture being typical Of hammers made In

their lines In most foreign markets, but
can only hope to obtain control Of

Bile and experienced representatives.
whose duty 1t should be to demonstrate
to both dealer and the workman the
superiority of their tools. A shortage
of hardware supplies exists all over
the world. Wherever people sow and
reap, mine, lumber, construct or build,
there are markets for American hard
ware and this Is especially true at
present In Latin America, China, Rus

is especially necessary in this line. ow-

away bleeding and writhing.
The next day when he appeared on
duty all his old friends of the regi-
ment met him with avertcd faces. His
fellow officers looked all round and
past him, and couldn't see him. No
body responded to his greetings and
people were silent when he asked
questions. He understood 1t all well

many days he endured this ostracism,
