A pet monkey had climbed to the top

WOMEN'S ARMY TO
BUILD MORALE
Happy Idea Meeting Hearty Response
Among Patriotic Women.

A new "army" has been born. 1t Is
called the Sunshine Division" and it
is made up of women-mostly young
women-who are eager to become a
part of definite organized effort to help
win the war. The soldiers will not
bear arms and court death like their
sisters among the Russians. Instead,
their line of duty will have to do with
service that will strengthen morale,
end help win the war by promoting
life among the American and allied SOL
dlers, rather than death among the en-
emy-the final result. according to

In the head, eyes, ears, back or other
parts of the body and a feeling of Sc
we're sickness. In most of the cases the
symptoms disappear after three or four
days, the patient then rapidly recover
ing. Some of the patients, however,
develop pneumonia, or Inflammation
of the ear, or meningitis, and many of
these complicated cases die. Whether
this so-called Spanish influenza is
identical with the epidemics of infiuen-
za of earlier years is not yet known.
"Epidemlcs of influenza have visited
this country since 1647. 1t is interest
ing to know that this first epidemic
was brought here from Valencia,
Spain. Since that time there have
been numerous epidemics of the dis
ease. In 1889 and 1890 an epidemic
of influenza, starting somewhere in the
Orient, spread first to Russia and
thence over practically the entire civ
ilized world. Three years later there
was another fiare-up of the disease
ly over the United States.
Although the present epidemic is
called Spanish influenza there is no
reason TO believe that it originated in
Spain. Some writer's who have studied
the question believe that the epidemic
came from the Orient and they call at
tention to the fact that the Germans
mention the disease as occurring along
the eastern front in the summer and
fall of 1911"
How can Spanish influenza" be rec
ognized?
There Is as yet no certain way in
which single case of Spanish inhu-
enza' can be recognized. On the 9TH
er hand, recognition is easy where
there is group of cases. In contrast
to the outbreaks of ordinary coughs
and colds, which usually occur in the
cold months, epidemics of influenza
may occur at any. season of the year.
Thus the present epidemic ragged most
intensely in Europe in May, June and
July. Moreover, in the case of ordi-
nary colds, the general symptoms
(fever. pain. depression) are by no
ihIhiiS 40 StNtlt VI Suuuell III llelT
onset ms they are In influenza. Final
ly, ordinary colds do not spread
through the community so rapidly or
80 extensively as does influenza.
In most cases a person taken sick
with influenza feels sick rather sud
denly. He feels weak, has pains in the
eyes, ears, head or back, and may be
sore all over. Many patients feel
dizzy, some vomit. Most of the pa
tients complain of feeling chilly, and
with this comes fever in which the
temperature rises to 100 to 104. In
most cases the pulse remains relative
ly slow.
In appearance one is struck by the
fact thar the patient looks sick. His
eyes and the inner side of his eyelids
may he slightly 'bloodshot,' or con
.,cSted.' as the doctors say. There
may he running from the nose, or
there may he some cough. These signs

EXTRADITIONl POSSIBLE, PARIS
LAWYER SHOWS. -.

Paris, Nov. William Hohenzol-
lern, can be extradited, in the opinion
of Professor Barthelemy Of the Paris
law faculty, who explains that his
guiding principle is that when there is
an apparent conflict between law and
common sense the solution is always
found by following the latter.
The theory that a political crime is
any crime inspired by purely political
motives, the professor declares, has
long been abandoned. He notes that
Belgium in 1856 classed regicides
among, common law criminals.
Crimes such as the assination of
President Carnot of France and King
Humbert of Italy were inspired by po-
1itical motives, he points out, and yet
the authors of them were executed.
The atrocities ordered by former
Emperor William, the professor con-
tinues, are condemned even in state
Of war by international law and con-
stitute common law crimes. To main-
tain that they are not because the OBJ
ject for which they were committed
was political is, he argues, an absurdi-
/ ty.

ON all sides through those proposing to
overthrow the government admit the
uselessness of such an action.
The correspondent, whose presence
is known throughout the city, has had
many visitors, one of whom. said he
represented a political group which
wished to know if it were possible to
annex Austria to the United States.
He said that Austria was now in a
hopeless situation, surrounded by ene-
mics, both men and women, who were
ruthlessly robbing.
Food conditions in Vienna are grad
ually becoming worse, with the poor
eating black bread in small quantities
and a soup made of water and baked
flour or vegetables. The lack of fats
is undermining strength.
