MARK Time UNTIL
CONGRESS MEETS
No Change in German Situation
is Expected Before the Ex-
ira Session Begins.
$4,000 MILITIA UNDER ARMS
Orders From Washington Increases
National Guard Police Service
President Works on Message

Washington, March 29.-It was
learned definitely today that the
American government has no knowl
edge of any development likely to
come before congress convenes which
would change the present situation
between the United States and Ger
many.
If Germany contemplates any sort
of peace move or has considered aban-
doning submarine ruthlessness, or if
any other nation has step in mind
designed to alter the present interna-
tional status, the government is with
out knowledge of the step.
Except for information concerning
German plots against American inter-
ests, it was learned, the public in a
general way knows as much as the
government about everything directly
affecting the present crisis. Concern
ing German intrigues in this and other
countries the government has much
information which up to the present
it has not thought it wise to make
public.
President Wilson today continued
conferences with his advisors prepare
tory to writing the address he will de-
liver to congress next week.
The administration is said to be
chiefly concerned at present with the
form of action to be taken by con-
gress, recognizing that Germany is
making war on the United States, and
with preparedness measures. Aggres-
sive steps, while being carefully con-
sidered, are understood to be looked
upon for questions for determination
after congress has defined the status
of the nation.
The number of nation guardsmen
called into the federal service for po-
Icing industrial and other strategic
points was brought up to $4,000 under
orders issued today. AT the same time
the regular First regiment of engi-
neers, scattered along the Mexican
border, was ordered back to its bar
racks at the capital; the navy took
additional measures to hasten con-
structicn and equipment of fighting
ships and both the war and navy de-
partments announced further proviS-
ions to facilitating recruiting.

SERVICE MEN RE-ENLISTING
Regulars Are Getting Many Recruits
Through Chicago Offices-Are
Breaking Former Records.

Chicago, March 29.-Army and
navy recruiting gained considerable
impetus today, and from indications
yesterdays record, which was the
highest of the year, will be excelled.
Sixty recruits were accepted. This
number, however, does not include
men who were accepted for the avia-
ton or submarine service, or for the
officers reserve corps.
The majority of the men applying
for enlistment in the regular army
were service men, having been in the
SpaniSh-American War, or stationed
along the border or at Vera Cruz.
Recruiting officers and patriotic or
CARNATIONS were today resorting to
various means of stirring up a mar
tial spirit. Motor cars carrying re-
cruiting officers and soldiers did adj
vertising work through the loop. High
school cadets, led by bands, paraded,
and naval reserves from the Great
Lakes station were stationed at the
various recruiting headquarters or dis
tributing literature.

NEW PROFESSION FOR WOMEN
itinerant Bookkeeper Works for Mer-
chants Who Do Not Need Her
Services All the Time.

A profession that is comparatively
new, especially for women, is that of
ttinerant bOokkeeper, the New York
Evening World states. 1t enables mer-
chants who have not enough work to
fill the time of a regular bookkeeper,
to yet have their work done by an ex-
pert at low cost. This work was
taken up some months ago by an en-
terprising young st. Louis business
woman. She had worked for several
years at various positions, as order
clerk, cashier, bookkeeper, for all kinds
of business concerns.
when 1 started OUT the young
woman stated, 81 had cards printed
stating my work. These 1 sent out in
large numbers to business men. Then
I followed them up by personal calls.
1 found business men much puzzled as
to what could mean by my work. In
such cases / gave practical demonstra-
tions, by helping them to organize and
systematic their accounts, so.that they
might know more accurately Just how
much they were making, and whether
their. business was on a paying basis.
al found that so many merchants
have an idea that if they buy mer-
chandise at a certain figure, then add
20 per cent or 80 per cent for over
head expense, to cover salaries, rent,
light, ETC., they are going to make
profit at the end of a certain period.
AT the end of that time, find that
many of them are no better off than
when they started. I have been able
to discover, through my experience in
managing books for large concerns,
that one reason for their miscalcula-
ton is that they do not charge enough
for their own services at a correct
cost figure. They must have an exact
basis of cost before making out the
selling price of goods.
81 have been able to point this out
to merchants and shows them how to-
do it"

MULES DEATH ARMY RECORD
Red Tape Causes Difficulties in Prov.
ing GeneVieVe's
Demise.

The precision and discipline of the
army are exemplified by the receipt at
National Guard headquarters In New
York of two long ears, once the prop
erty of Genevieve, an army mule, who
came to her end at Camp Whitman re-
Gently. A report of the animals
demise was sent in due course to Capt.
Joseph w. Farrell of the Quartermas-
ter's department at headquarters.
There is a rule in the National
Guard that physical evidence must be
given of every article broken, lost or
destroyed. If belt buckle breaks the
belt, minus the buckle, must be pro-
duced before the loss can be recorded
on the books.
So with Genevieve. Definite visible
evidence of her ultimate fate must be
displayed before the bookkeeping and
accounting departments were permit
ted to write her obituary. After long
consultations CT important officers in
structions were forwarded to Camp
Whitman, in accordance with which a
package arrived at headquarters,
which was found to contain the follow
ing items, to wit, one fuzzy ear, extra
long, suitable for use on the right side
of mules head, and one similar ear.
for use on the left side of a mules
head.
Genevieve's death was Immediately
recorded on the books.

YES! MAGICALLY!
CORNS LIFT OUT
WITH FINGERS

You say to the drug store man,
"Give me a small bottle of freezone."
This will cost very little but will
positively remove every hard or soft
corn or callus from ones feet.
A few drops of this new ether COM
pound applied directly upon a tender.
aching corn relieves the soreness in
stantly, and soon the entire corn or
callus. root and all, dries up and can
be lifted OF with the fingers.
This new way to rid ones feet Of
corns was introduced by a Cincinnati
man, who says that freezone DRIES in
a moment, and simply shriveIs up the
corn or callus without irritating the
surrounding skin
If your druggist hasn't any freezone
tell him to order a small bottle from
his wholesale drug house for you.-adv.

SEIZED THE DUTCH SHIPS?

Washington. March 29--Dutch
steamships in British ports were re-
ported here today TO have been con
fiscated by the British government
The information reached here from
a grain house which sold the Dutch
government the grain aboard many
of the vessels. 1t could not be con
firmed at The Netherlands legation
About forty Dutch ships now are
in ports belonging to Great Britain
and a fleet of fifteen grain carrying
vessels is understood to be on its way
from Holland port to the United
States. Many of the Dutch ships now
in British ports have been detained
for from six to eight weeks.
The British government for some
time has been insisting that a GER
tain percentage of Dutch merchant
tonnage carry cargoes to British des-
tinations and the Dutch government
has refused.
