suroical prsaslnu Work.

Some skeptical people, who usually aren't doing anything themselves, think that the production of surgical dress ings by patriotic women is being Over- done. If they could see conditions in some o4 the French villages, where not a single able-bOdied man remains, they would not feel so.
 In these colossal battles, where hun dreds of thousands of men are eIH gagged, all previous wars and needs are Outclassed. A great many men are wounded in these battles. With prompt care and abundant material handy, the vast majority of the wound ed are saved.
 Vast stOrehOuses should be filled in France at all times for this need. A Red Cross doctor who recently return ed from France reports case of sOlo dler go badly wounded that it took a whole case of dressings to save him. Under the strain of such demands, a great mountain of supplies will quick ly melt away.-Virginia Enterprise.

ONLY CHANGE IN MACHINERY
Hand Knitting Now Done in Exactly the Same Manner as 1t Was Many
 Centuries Ago.

There are few touches of humoP in the countryside revival of knitting, such as the Over-large and the enviOus feminine group about the lady who, with practiced skill, deftly turns the heel of sock, but behind 1t all is a fine display of service, says writer in the Detroit Free Press. When you see a sweater or muffler in process of evolution 1t may interest you to know that the work is being done just about as 1t was when the art was in its in- fancy. There have been great improve ments in knitting machinery, however, and the first of them was directly due to a somewhat common malady-un- reciprOcated love.
 The Rev. William Lee of Cambridge university. as the story goes, was deep- ly smitten with a maiden of his native town, WOodbOrOugh, NOttinghamshire, but in spite of his ardent wQOing could make no impression. The fair one calmly kept on with her knitting, then the common occupation of English women.
 In revenge Reverend William swOre he'd invent a machine which would de- stroy the market for hand work. He kept his word, but Queen Elizabeth re- fused to grant a patent and to give her financial support because too many of her subjects would be deprived of their means of livelihood. So the inventor took his machine to France. This story may be entirely fanciful, but in 1889 William Lee did revOlutiOniZe hosiery making by producing the knit ting frame or stocking frame. Ameri- can names in the list of those who have lahOred to perfect knitting ma chinery are w. c. Gist, Almet Reid and GrisWOld.

There is more Catarrh in this section of the country than all other diseases put together, and for years it was SUD- posed to be incurable. Doctors prescribed local remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced 1t incurable. Catarrh is a local disease, greatly influenced by constitutional con- ditions and therefore requires constitu tional treatment. Halls Catarrh Medi- cine. manufactured by J.

A disease new to science and pro VisiOnalIy called TX" has broken out in the west and northwest of New South Wales and has already caused a number of deaths. The symptoms somewhat resemble those of cerebrO- spinal meningitis, but it differs pathO- logically from that disease and in some respects is somewhat akin to pneumO- uia.-Scientiflc American.

 ResourcefuI and Brave Cook.
 That a cook should perform an act of the utmost daring in the pursuit of his occupation as purveyOr of food seems almost incredible. Yet that is what was done by William B. Gray. third class ships cook in the United States naval reserve. During the cold wealth CT of last winter the Roanoke marshes in North Carolina were frozen and boats were unable to reach the keeper of lighthouse, who was consequently in danger of starvation. Gray made a sled by putting runners upon a life boat, loaded 1t with food and hauled it across the ice, which was broken and tossed by strong and dangerous cur rents, to the lighthouse, thus saving the keepers life and enabling him to continue at his post of duty. Gray ia a native of North Carolina.

Dear Sir:
on page L OF The Herald for Thurs
day April is. there appeared an item
headed COBB Is BACK FROM HIS
TOUR under which in large black
letters there was sub-heading
~Hudspeth gets out Of his car" where
in it is stated:
The committee which arranged for
the automobiles which carried Mr.. Nc

room in another car farther back in

An Investigation develops that the
facts were as follows; IL had been
arranged that Dir r T. Thomason.

and some plezsantries were engaged
in, Alr. Dudley remarking that he
would put the two candidates in the
same seat and let them fight II out.
Both Of them made pleasant replies
and were engaging in conversation
when Senator W ". Turney, who was
in another car. noticed that The par
ticular car in question was crowded.
He either called "a Senator Hudspeth.
OF called TO Mr. Nitham 10 call SEN

tor Hudspeth was called back 70 Sen
atOr Turney's car but before he ar
rived there other friends had taken
their seats therein. and the car was
full, and Senator Hudspefh thereupon
was seated in another car.

may be verified BY calling upon AIr.
