Women Doing Mems Work

One of the most striking results of
the great war in Europe, is the eX-
tent to which women are doing the
work of men. Travellers to England
and France report that practically
every able-bodied man is in uniform
and women by the thousands are en-
gagged in doing mems work-acting
as conductors and drivers on the cars
and doing all sorts of heavy work
besides.
This shows unexpected possibili-
ties in what has been mistakenly
called the weaker sex. Women are
subject to ailments which men do
not have, and when so ailing be-
come weak, helpless sufferers. But
n remedy has been found. For forty
years, Lydia e. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound has been making such
women we'll and strong, and as able
to do work as any other woman.

High British Official Says To-

II we all could understand the real

and Belgium we would be ashamed
that we are not doing more for those
brave American lads now on the fir
ing line and the hundreds of thou
sands more who are to follow. Par
ticularly when it is so easy to help.
A cigaret, according to the men
who have been there, is the soldier s
greatest joy. Every quarter contri-
buted to our tobacco fund will make
one soldier happy. Every quarter
buys a Ascent kit of tobacco and
cigarets and each kit contains enough
to last even the hardest smoker a
week.
Can't Get Too Much Tobacco
Sir Edward Ward, director general
of voluntary organizations in Eng
land, who has had actual eXperiece
in dealing with the soldiers needs
wrote recently to the promoters of a
tobacco fund in that country as fol-
lows:
II want to appeal to you to continue
and if possible. extend this branch of
your work by providing even greater
quantities OF tobacco and cigarets
for distribution to the troops. No lux
ury is more appreciated by the SOL
diers than gifts of this nature"
In some of the shops the men have
started a very good plan. 1t is to
contribute % cents each month to the
tobacco fund as long as the war
lasts. To others it is suggested that
they follow the plan of Ellis Parker
Butler, the famous short story writer.
Every time Mr.. Butler buys smoke
he sets aside one for a soldier If
spend a dime" he said, my soldier
gets a dime; if 1 spend dollar for
tobacco my soldier gets dollars
worth. He's going to smoke every
time L do"

Two things should be remarked in
this organization: the absence of cav
airy, for reasons already made plain,
and the great increase in the artil-
lery strength. Since the front lines
of opposing trenches lie close to each
other, and are so deep that they COW
er their occupants against any form
of small-arm fire, the trench mortar
hos been devised Gas the grenade has
been resurrected) to launch pro-
jectile that will clear ones own para
pet, rise in the air and fall into
the enemy trench. Trench artillery
constitutes a class apart. Equally
worthy Of notice Is the number OF
machine guns; of these, each divi-
sion will have 416.
Each army corps consists normal
ly of one corps headquarters, three
infantry divisions, and army corps
troops. The composition of these
latter is not announced, but they in

corps commander as circumstances
may demand.
Lastly. each army will consist nor
mally of one army corps and army
troops.
Each general officer in command
of troops has a staff. That of the

GUNS FOR LINERS
IS BIG QUESTION
HEAD OF NATION

WASHINGTON, D. c.. Feb. 14.-It
was expected early this afternoon that
President Wilson would defer decis-
ion in the matter of furnishing guns
to American ships, until he decides
whether or not he will ask congress
for verbal authority to protect Ameri-
can lives and ships at sea. 1t is indi-
Gated, however, that no change in the
American governments attitude has
been even considered, and there is
no move in prospect, as far as can be
learned here.
An accumulation of incidents involv-
ing violations of American rights is,
however, believed to be fastening the
hour when President Wilson win again
go before congress in joint session,
and that he will then ask for full au-
thority to protect property and ma
tionals of the United States. The con
tinued detention of seyenty-two Ameri-
cans, taken to Germany on board the
Crize ship YarrowdaIe. is looked upon
in official circles as an acute indica-
ton of the German governments dis
regard Of American rights, and If q
vigorous protest has not already gone
to Berlin, one is certain to be sent
through the Swiss minister, unless
the men are released quickly.
Reports that split in the Wilson
cabinet has been occasioned over the
question of furnishing American naval
guns to merchant vessels flying the
United States flag, are officially de-
MED this afternoon.
