PARIS UNDER FIRE
Effect of BOmbardment Described by
an Eye Witness

Elizabeth Sergeant describes the
bombardmcnt Of Paris in this week s
New Republican.
After the first day and half Of the
long distance bombardment Of Paris
an officer of the Red Cross went out
to get his lunch. Paris had just ira
versed one rather disquicting moment
"a moment of mystery; ordered to its
cellars in broad daylight, it could not,
in spite of periodic explosions, discern
a single "Gotha" in the empyrean or
hear a single French defensive shot
But news of the long --ange gun was
now abroad; already the realistic re,
action had set in; already the boulc-
wards were in movement, and the old
woman who sells newspapers at the
kiosk opposite the MaGelaine was in
her place.
Good morning Madame. I haven't
heard that famous gun of yours for at
least half an hour-have you?"
Que vouleZ-vous, Monsieur! Faut
gull dejeune!-1t has to have its
lunch!"
In this spirit does the ancient peo,
pie of Paris, which has known many
another embattled hour, hold its sec
tion Of the line of fire.

time of the accident the children were

that he attempted to climb upon the

him. When dinner time came and the
little fellow did not come with his

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot BE Cured

by local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure catarrh-
al deafness, and that is by a consti-
tutional remedy. Catarrhal Deafness
is caused by an inflamcd condition Of
the mucous lining of the Eustachian
Tube. When this tube is inflamed
you have rumbling sound or imper-
feet hearing, and when it is entirely
closed Deafness is the result. Unless
the inflammation can be reduced and
this tube restored to it's normal condi-
tion, hearing will be destroyed for
"or. Many cases OF deafness are
caused by catarrh, which is an in
famed condition Of the mucous sur
faces. Halls Catarrh Medicine acts
he blood on the mucous surfac-
es Of the system.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of catarrhal Deafness
that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh
Medicine. Circulars free. All drug

Noah and the Ark. Did YOU ever find
out what that sight was? If not read
the 18th chapter of Revelation, and
take notice Of the 18th verse. Also the
2lst chapter of St. Luke. Take the
:36th verse and imprint it on YOUR
hearts. This is not a prophecy, but a
warning and may God grant that his
love and mercy may be bestowed upon
US, and help us live closer to Him.
You may laugh at this, but Gods
time is coming to laugh, when it will
De too late. May God be with us for
forever Amen.

THE SPIRIT OF ECONOMY.

There is a strong note of economy struck in these new French clothes, which is heard by the woman who is hiring seamstress to build up her spring wardrobe at home. It shows the way to alter old gowns into new ones. The majority of women own evening frocks that have good foun- dations, the skirts trif1e too full, it is true, but otherwise ready to serve as the beginning of a new frock. The alteration in the skirt is a simple one, It consists of strengthening out all the seams so that there is no flare from the hips down.
 This trick is going on in all the sewing rooms on the continent, for the straight skirt is so well establish ed that even the casual woman has observed that she is entirely out of the picture in any garment that has f1aring seams.
 After the satin or silk evening foundation is adapted to the modern on alteration and economy may drop over it a chemise tunic of chiffon or jetted material, or she may take good parts of ornamental drapery from other gowns and make them into a tunic.
 If neither of these tricks is possible she may buy wide, ornamental ribbon or do as one woman did-cut strips i from old bits of brocaded curtains that have served their day, an6 mounting them on tulle, accomplish a tunic that has real distinction

FAMOUS ACTRESS SUFFERING WITH
 A RARE DISEASE

New York, May S-The condition of Anna Held, the actress, remained unchanged yesterday, though she spent a comfortable day in her apartments in the Hotel Savoy Dr. Donald McCaskey, her physician, said that a consultation would be held on Friday to determine wheth- CT a blood transfusion would be nec- essary to restore Miss Held to her former vigorous condition.
 '"The X-ray examination has re- ve>led a spongy condition of the bone marrow and the bone tissue, '' he said. ''There are only fifty cases of this disease, which is called mal- tiple myeloma, recorded in the his tory of medicine. The bone tissue gradually becomes spongy, and it's course is insidious, steadily making demands on the blood supply unti the patient becomes anaemic. The affliction is caused, n K, by over work, and insufficient \. n1ight. Miss Held, however, is determined to fight the thing with her characteristic spirit"
 pr. McCaskey added that Miss Held had not gained in weight since her illness became pronounced. She still weighs 85 pounds, he said, al though her normal weight is around 115 pounds. To increase her strength blood transmission inevitably would be necessary if a gain was not shown
