the wife of Philip ~. the Fair, of
France, and the only child and heiress
of Henry L, King Of Navarro and

and to all his ordinances relative to
the government of that principally he
always added that he acted with the
concurrence of his dear companion;
and Jeanne added her seal to that of
her husband. She was married to
Philip at the age of thirteen, and
during her twenty years of welded
life she bore her husband seven chill
dren.

and denied.
In every war of vast magnitJ9e
earnest and we'll intentioned, but mis-
guided, people urge peace when peace
is perilous. Thus it was in the dark
days of the Civil War; the paoif1sts Of
the time urged Lincoln to make peace,
and Lincoln was denounced by them
far more bitterly than anyone has had
the hardihood to denounce President
Wilson. Today every sane person in
the land knows that Lincoln was JUS
titled in the course he took, and that
the pacifists were wrong. Had the
counsel of the pacifsts prevailed it
would have been a great disaster to
civilization.
Prussian contempt for civilization
and law forced US into this war
against our wishes and inclinations.
We shall not lay down the sword until
we have forced Prussiah-ruled Ger
many to respect civilization and inter-
national Flaw. We must insist upon
an end being put to the anarchy and
brutal arrogance Of Prussian mill
tarism.
We are for peace, now as ever, but
not for the peace which Prussia
would impose upon the world - the
peace which comes from submission to
peace of justice and righteousness;
and we mean to attain it, no matter
what the sacrifice may be.

WHITE PLAGUE CLAIMS
100000 IN FRANCE

(F'rom World Outlook for November.)
The French peasant is not fond of
fresh air, his cottage has not many
windows, and these are not often
opened. Moreover. that country has
been far behind Great Britain and
the United States and Germany in the
care and prevention of tuberculosis.
SO that there were many men in
France who had the seeds of the dis
ease in them, and in the stress Of the
hurried modifying in August. 1914,
there was no time for the proper med
ical examination to weed these out.
With the Germans marching on
Paris, who could stop to think If SOL
der were tubercu1ar or no? So they
went to the trenches. the damp, cold
trenches, fine breeding ground for
disease, or they were billeted in peas
ant huts; hardly any of them living
the hygienic tent life we picture sol
diers as leading.
And thus it has come about that
tuberculosis is a problem in this war,
as it has never been in any war be-
fore. Herman M. Biggs, MD,
New York state commissioner of
health, estimates that taking the
armies and the soldiers invaded from
the army, the prisoners of war living
in concentration camps in Germany,
and the refugees and residents of in
vaded districts, crowded together in
unsanitary conditions there are prob
ably 100000 cases of tuberculosis in
France, land practically no facilities
for caring for them,'' he reports. fol-
lowing his recent visit to that coun-
try.

DooroRING WOUNDED TREES.

by Eleanor Booth Simmons in World
Outlook for November.)
OF all the restoration work done in
France. I do not know Of any more
ingenious or more interesting than the
doctoring of wounded trees. The
French soldiers are taught first aid to
injured trees, and it is necessary, for
the retreating Germans show an alb
solutely fendish efficiency in ravishing
the orchards and forests and shade
tres in the villages. When they had
time they would fell the trees, but
when the close pursuit Of the Allies
forbade this, they set their kultur to
work to girdle the trunks. cutting off
a circle Of bark in such fashion as to
kill in a few days fruit tree which
nigh have been a. half-century attain
ing it's productfveness. But the
French armies, hard on their tracks,
would bind up the wounds-f1rst with
a special grating cement, and, when
the supply of that gave out, with tar,
and finally with loamy clay. Red
Cross ambulance drivers and stretch
er-carriers assisted, and often ban
dages from their store were used.
Lately 1t has been found that moss
twisted and tied about the dressed
wound was as effective as the band
age.
These are simple operations; it is
when the tree is cut down that French
resourcefulness is really put to It.
However, they trim the stump In a
way to conserve the sap, preventing
the death of the roots, and then treat
with grating paste till the cut-down
tree has budded from the sap in it.
Then budding branches are cut off
! and grated into the stump; and all
over the evacuated regions these res
cued stumps are seen with their
crowns Of budding grated boughs. It
| is rather touching to think of this
work of restoration being done by
| French soldiers who will probably
never see those particular orchards
again. Soldiers pause in their hur-
rted marches to bring to life again
to fields Of grain which the Germans
have sought to ruin by dragging har-
rows over then-pause to restore and
then sweep on. But it is all for
France, and maybe, they reflect, some
/ body Is doing the same for their own
| fields at home.

TODAYS ANNIVERSARIES.

The originator of the sandwich, the
fourth Earl of Sandwich, was born
100 years ago today. Nov. 8, 1718. This
earl, like most of the English mobiles
of that time, was devoted to games of
chance, and it was this prediction
that was responsible for the applica-
ton of his name to the sandwich.
When the stakes ran high the belted
earl was unable to tear himself away
from the gaming table. and it was his
custom to order the servants to bring
linn slices Of bread and ham. Other
devotees of the goddess of luck fol-
lowed his example, and gave the
name sandwich" to the combination
of bread and meat. The passion for
gambling is no longer SO prevalent as
in the Earl of Sandwiches day, but
the rush and hurry of modern life
have given the sandwich a wide pop
niarity and is the mainstay of those
who would "get filled quick"

BIRTHDAY OF
CHIEF JUSTICE WHITE

Edward Douglas White, Chief JUS
tice Of the Supreme Court Of the
United States, will be the recipient
of congratulations today on the at
tainment of his seventy-second birth
day. The most exalted of American
Jurists was born Nov. 8, 1S45, in the
Parish Of Lafourche, La The chief
of the court Of last resort in Uncle
Sans domintons is the ideal figure of
a judge-tau and commanding in
figure, with massive physique and
a face indicative Of strength and poise.
Justice Whites ancestors established
themselves in Louisiana while it was
still French territory, and his boy
hood was spent among the French
Acadians and Spanish-speaking peo-
pies who form SO large a part of the
population Of that section of Louisi-
ana. His father owned a large plan
tation, and was a member of Con-
gress and governor of Louisiana. Like
his father and grandfather before
him, the future Chief Justice was
from. infancy destined for the law,
and all his education had that end in
view. He was sent to Mount st.
Mary's Jesuit college in Maryland,
and then entered Georgetown College.
He was a student in the latter tnsti-
tuition, and only sixteen, VIXEN the
Civil War broke out. Like the ma
tjority of bis classmates, he had no
further use for books, and left imme-
dfately for his native state. He had
no sooner reached home than he join
ed regiment Of infantry. He fought
CALAMITY in the ranks until taken
prisoner by the Union forces, being
at the time seriously ILL., Upon his re-
covery he was paro1ed and returned
to his home. When his parole expired
the war was about over. In 1853 he
was admitted to the bar and began
practice in New Orleans. After a few
years of poverty, in which clients,
were few and far between, he forged
his way to the front, and became sue
cessively State Senator, associate Jus
toe of the Louisiana supreme court.
United States Senator, and, in 1894,
! associate justice of the Supreme Court
of the United States. He is a Roman
Catholic, and a regent of the Smith
lsonian Institution.

SPIRIT OF PLAY ACTUATES.
THE REVOLUTIONSTS

Some of the naive and mischievous
doings of the Russian Revolutionsts,
whose happiness knew no bounds
after the overthrow Of the Gar, are
told by William G. Shepherd in Every
body's for November. The following
is representative:
There was that day in the village
of Gotchina, for instance. All through
the long life of Gotchina there stood
on it's outskirts a palace, surrounded
by grounds that were sacred, and in
habited by high-born folks that a
peasant must always touch his cap to.
When the wave of revolution reached
Gotchina, the village folk there did
their bit in helping the common folks
get on top; and the uncommon folks
in the palace fed. Did Gotchina burn
down the palace? No. That would
have been angry work or alcoholic
play, and Gotchina, was unalcoholtc-
ally and cheerfully playful. A peas
ant discovered in one of the once-sac-
red ponds huge dark forms that NOV

like a cry of fire.

hundred years old, which the high
born folk of the palace and their
fathers before them had been nurt-
nring like old wine.
Son the third night there was such
a barbecue Of giant carp as will put
that day down in the history of Gotch-
ina forever. 1t was Gotchina's way
of showing that it had thrown off the
old yoke.i And, like all the rest of
Russia, it smiled. instead of frowning
with earnestness, and was happy in
stead of angry

To settle dispute, did President LIN

and allow them 60 retain their slaves
and re.enter the Union If they would
give up the struggle?
He made it clear that his main OBJ
ject was to preserve or restore the
Union, whether with or without slav-
cry. In his annual message Of Deem
Der, 1861, after the war had begun,
Mr.. Lincoln expressed his purpose ito
keep the integrity Of the Union promi-
nent as the primary object Of the con-
test" In a reply to those who criti-
cised his policy In 1862 he wrote: "If
there be those who would not save
the Union unless they could at the
same time save slavery, do net agree
with them. If there be those who
would not save the Union unless they
could at the same tine destroy slav-
cry I do not agree with them. My para
mount object In this struggle Is to
save the Union, and is not either to
save or to destroy slavery. II could
save the Union without freeing any
