Young men, many Of them not yet
past their majority. rushed the various
recruiting stations about the city today
in an effort to get into some branch of
| the military service and be among the
first to see service. The heaviest re-
cruiting was at the stations where men

No Place for Pacifsts.
There's not much of the anti-war
spirit among the young men of Wash

vocates do not linger long around the
recruiting stations.
The army recruiting station in the
tent at 18th street and Pennsylvania
avenue reported an increase in the
number of recruits today. probably due
to the publication of the Presidents
speech to Congress. A number of re-
tired army men applied there today for
re -enlistment. One man, with one arm,
came into the station and asked if he
forfeited his pension of $50 month
could he enlist again. He was told
no"

BUILT FOR KINGS DAUGHTER
Famous French Road Constructed by
Louis XIV to Render Travel
More Easy.

The high road running along the
edge Of the plateau of Craonne,
France, frequently mentioned in the
official communiques during the second
battle of the Aisne, and which is going
down to history under the name of the
"Chemin des Dames," (the ladies'
way), dates from the time Of Louis
XIV.
This road, beginning at the Paris
Maubeuge road, about ten miles north
east Of scissors, crosses the plateau
of Craonne, a distance Of about twelve
miles, then descends into the valley of
the Ailette to cross the Vauclerc
woods to the domain of the ancient
chateau Of Dove, near BOuconville,
where the Princess Adelaide, Sophie
and Victoire, daughters Of Louis XIV
visited one of their ladies Of honor
Nine. de Narbonne, every summer.
The roads of the region were de
testable. Out Of consideration for the
princesses a new paved road was bull
along the crest Of the plateau and from
that fact it derives the name of the
"Chemin des Danes"

She Used Her Voice.

The Waldorf-Astoria hotel in New

her voice and bellhops and porters

hostelry. In answer to her cries she
pointed to one Of the rooms. There's

Serum for InfantiIe PARALYSIS.

Drs. M. Neustaedter and E. J..
Banzahf describe in the Journal Of
the American Medical association ex-
periments they have been making on
monkeys in developing a serum for the
treatment of infantile paralysis. The
serum is derived from the blood of
horses. Their report says:
'The five naturalization experiments
were positive without exception. The
serum protected one monkey complete
ly against a rather slow-acting virus
of the eighth generation originally re-
covered from a human patient On
account of the scarcity of monkeys
we could not make as many expert
ments as we would wish to do, so we
report the facts without drawing con-
clusions. We feel, however, that we
are justified in using the serum in hu'
man cases, especially when human
serum is unobtainable, and shall re
port when a sufficient number have
been treated"

THE DOG AND cows.
@ hApY GRAHk1 BONNER

'Bow-wow, bow-wow," said Rowdy,
the sheep dog.
Now the sheep knew perfectly well
that they mustn't wander off into the
road, but must go back to their pas
ture, for Rowdy would chase them
back if they didn't go, and when he
chased them he got so excited that he
frightened them quite little bit.
So back they hurried, and ROwdy
went to sleep by the farmhouse. Pret-
ty soon he stretched, yawned and got
up. Its milking time" he said to
himself.
He went over toward the Farmer,
who was working in the barn. He
rubbed his cold nose against the Farm
er's hand and tried to say:
"Master, it's milking time" The
Farmer was quite busy and at first he
barely noticed the dog except to give
him a pat.
But Rowdy kept on nudging and rub
bing up against tie Farmer. "1t's
milking time," he was trying to say as
hard as he could.
Finally the Farmer understood. "Oh,
yes, Rowdy! You always remember.
How stupid of me to have forgotten.
Right, Rowdy! The Cows!" For when
ever he said that, then Rowdy knew it
was time for him to bring in the cows.
Although Rowdy would remind the
| Farmer of the time, he would never
have gone for the Cows until the
| Farmer told him to go.
Off went Rowdy with a ga1lop. Up
the side of hill, where all the Cows
were eating nice long grass, he bound
ed, and then he began hurrying them
along for the barn.
"Bow-wow, bow-wow milking time
Cows" his barks meant, and the Cows
understood, for off they went down the
hill.
Straight into the barn where theil
stalls were Rowdy took them. Then
when they were all ready to be MIXED
he went outside the barn and lay iI
some long grass there. A nice little
sleep he had. And just as the very
last Cow was being MIXED up he
jumped. For it was time to take then

When he came back to the farm
house there was his bowl of fresh mill

And every morning and every after

"Where is the missing Cow?" asked
the Farmer.
"Come with me-" Rowdy's eyes
seemed to say.
So off went the Farmer with Rowdy.
Lead the way, Rowdy," he said. And
Rowdy led him back up the hill.
Still the Farmer didn't see the miss
ing Cow.
Where is she?" he asked Rowdy.
Rowdy's only answer was to walk
straight on-a little ahead Of the
Farmer.
Just at the end of the Pasture were
some woods, and sitting down by the
side of a tree was the Cow. She was
moaning and trying to lick her foot.
Then the Farmer knew why Rowdy
had left the Cow behind and had not
made her try to limp on with the 9th
ers.
"Oh," said the Farmer, 'it's hor-
rid thorn in your foot"
MOO, moo," said the Cow. And
Rowdy went shifting around to explain
to the Farmer that the Cow needed
help.
81 understand, Rowdy, my boy" said
the Farmer, and then Rowdy sat down
and watched.
The Farmer took the Cows foot and
gently, ever so gently, he pulled the
horrid thorn out. 1t had stuck quite
far in, and oh. how it had hurt the
| Cow!
you're all right now," said the
Farmer. 'Up you get"
The Cow got up rather slowly. Ther
she stepped on the foot, which already
felt so differently! And to her deligh
she found her foot was all, all well.
"Come along" barked Rowdy. Ant
the Cow ran as fast as her great, biz
body would let her, after Rowdy.
The Farmer followed along, saying
Good Rowdy, my fine Rowdy."
And Rowdy understood and wa

KAISER AND CROWN PRINCE AS
NDORFF TO WILLIAM LEQUEUX

In delight l took her into RonZi's,
the noted confectioner's at the corner
of the Piazza Colonna, and there, at
one of the little tables, she explained
to me how she and her mother, having
become acquainted with Franz Seeli-

the suspicion of the Berlin secret pO-
lice and, though much puzzled, did not

Some weeks later mother and daugh-
ter CHANGED to be in Paris, and one
day called at Seeliger's rooms in the
Rue de Provence, but he was out.
They, however, were shown into his
room to wait and there saw upon his
table an abusive and scurrilouS type
! written letter in German addressed to
the emperor. Then it suddenly dawned
upon them that the affable young man
might be the actual author of those
Infamous letters, about which all Ber-
lin knew and was talking. 1t was this
visit which, no doubt, revealed to the
baron the young mans hiding place.
Both mother and daughter, however,
kept their own counsel, met Seeliger
next day, and watched, subsequently
learning, to their surprise, that he was
the son Of General Won Trautmann,
and, further, that he had as friend
one of the personal Wallets of the en-
peror, from whom, no doubt, he OBJ
tanned his inside information about
persons at court.
