ICELEsS REFRIGERATOR.
Cheap and Effective Apparatus,
Easily Constructed.

The woman who cannot conveniently
get ice, or who cannot afford it, resorts
to all sorts of contrivances to keep her
milk sweet and her butter hard.
Here is plan for a home made milk
house that will answer the purpose.
Make your frame work the size you
want the refrigerator, making the bot
tom a trife larger than the top. Cover
the frame work with ordinary ''bag'
sacking-clean potato sacks will do.
Stretch this covering tight and secure it
with small nails The door is made of
the same material. The door can be
made to open and shut, or you can
have a hanging door which simply
drops over the opening.
Now set a vessel of water on top of
the refrigerator. Of old wooden cloth
make strips two or three inches wide
and dip them in the water Place one
end in the vessel and lay the strips out
over the sides of the refrigerator
| These make wicks and gently draw the
water onto the sacking. Evaporation
Immediately sets in, and you will be
surprised to find in a short time that
your butter is hardening and your milk
growing cold. A few gallons of water
will keep this refrigerator in opera
tion throughout the day and night, but
the vessel should be filled morning
noon, and night.
J This refrigerator will give goot
service if placed in the sun, but bette
service if placed in a shaded place
The water used may be either cold O
warm, the object being to have FIRE,
circulation of the air, force evapora
tiop, and keep the sides of the refrig
orator wet at all times.-Farm Life.

VERMONTERS LOSE
THEIR STATE PAY
500 Have Had it for a Year Which is
All the Legislature Pro-
yided For.

MONTPELIER, July 23.-There has
been marked reduction in the amount OF
money paid last month to the soldiers
in France as state pay, some 800 having
dropped off the list. This is not due to
the casualty lists, but to the fact that 800
have received their years amount, as
provided by the statutes. Last week from
the state treasurer's office there was mailed
to soldiers in France, who were members
of the old First Vermont regiment, $1,000.

RELATIVES NO BAR.
Nurses Who Have Them in France May
Go Overseas.


NEW YORK, July 23-The Atlantic
division Of the Red Cross took occasion
Yesterday to set at rest erroneous re-
ports that women having near relatives
serving in the army or navy abroad may
not themselves 60 to France as military
nurses The only prohibition against
women7 serving in Frunce, the Red Cross
announcement explained, concerns those
who, having relatives in the army or
navy, are themselves engaged in special
service and not under direct military
control.
The nursing bureau has learned the
statement said, that many nurses who
are anxious to serve with the Army
Nurse Corps have not made application
for enrolment through the department
OF nursing Of the Red Cross because of
the prevailing idea that they are barred
from service because they have brothers
or other near relatives serving in France
The Red Cross wishes to make clear that
all of these nurses are eligible for enroll
ment and that they are eligible to serve
abroad in the Army Nurse Corps"

one point just below Albert and tried to take Bapaume from the southwest. They struggled four months and lost over quar- ter of million men and never did get close to Bapaume. The Germans gave up the town during the late winter when Hinden- burg made his famous strategic retreat. But in this offensive the allies have struck in three different places for Bapaume. They have bewildered and dazed the Germans by their lightning strokes and keen strategy. Already they are northeast of Bapaume at one point of attack and are in the suburbs of the town at another point to the south east And it was only two weeks ago that they went after this important German base. Verify, with one master mind direct ing the attack, the rate of progress has been increased to a rate and the cost has been reduced to point where the allied peoples may well view the situation with the most intense satisfaction, to say the least.

but every such reference was summar- fly cut out by the censor.
 Again, when her majesty cabled to the American Red Cross, appealing for the sympathy and support of the peo- pie of the United States, the German officials in Jassy threw every obstacle in the way and finally passed the mes sage in an expurgated form.
 The king likewise is made to bear many unpleasant experiences. When recently the Rumanian parliament was preparing to re-assemble for the pur- pose of ratifying the German peace treaty. King Ferdinand was asked to open the proceedings. His majesty found it a very painful duty. To avoid fulfilling it ne kept to his bed for three days aud insisted he was not equal to the task. On the third day, M. MaTghiloman, the prO-German prime minister. came to the palace with an ultimatum. In the most un- compromising manner he said to the king:
 "Open parliament today or you will be forced to accept my resignation as premier, which l now hold in my hand"
 The king realized that if MarghilO- man resigned a new cabinet would be formed, with NJ. Carp, his bitterest an tagonist as its probable head, and that his dynasty would then be overthrown. So he yielded to Marghiloman's threat and went to the national theater in Jassy, where the sessions of parlia- ment are held, and delivered a per functory address which occupied not more than four or five minutes. Only the members who were avOwedly Ger man were present.
 Toward the German authorities the king and queen are forced by circum- stance to maintain an attitude quite contrary to the innermost feeling of their hearts. The royal family. and indeed all the loyal Rumanians place all their hope in the United States and the allied nations. Fate of cir will compel them for the present to tolerate the domination and yoke of Germany. but look finally to the entente allies to deliver them from the bondage into which the German emperor has forced them.

 Living today in the little village of Bicaz, on the Administration iron tier. in what amounts to a celfimposed exile, every convenience or accommO- dation that might be considered a priv ilege has been taken from them by the Germans, who now have the coun- try and the people completely subju gated and shackled.
 No opportunity has been lost by the Germans to exact retribution from the Queen for her action in bringing Rumania to fight against the Central Powers, and no discourtesy or slight is cosidered too great for the king for what the Germans consider his betrayal of the HohenzolIern family and his own blood relatives
 When the Queen sought recently to write to her mother, the Duchess Of Edinburgh, who is now living in Gotha, Germany, the German authorities told her she could do so only by sending the envelope unsealed and having the contents examined by the censor. In the letter the Queen attempted to de- scribe her anguish fl mind aEd heart and the harshness or the German rule,

THE GUILTY ONE HUNDRED
From the Boston Transcript


 After as fair a trial as men ever had, as fair as innocent men could ask, one hun dred members of the I. w. w., charged with violation of the espionage act and con sPiracy to thwart the winning of the war, have been found guilty by a federal jury at Chicago. Apparently the jury had no diff ficulty in arriving at a verdict, which was returned within an hour and five minutes after the case was submitted. The trial con- sumed l 36 days, during which 100000 words of testimony were taken. The judge leaned backward in his leniency toward the defendants and allowed them and their 'swivelled-chair king, Bill Haywood, to roar out in the open court their ibels against the land whose law and order and security they were bent upon destroying. The overthrow of government was their an- archistic aim, and the terrorizing of all com munities. Life and property were things to be destroyed, not respected, and all upon the pretence that they were blazing the way for the social revolution which they pre- tended to lead.
 It Is well tor the government that these men have finally been given their day in court and permitted to plea their case be- fore jury of red-blooded Americans Had the roundup occurred soon after these men ran amuck throughout the West that sec ton would have been spared the humilia- ton of taking law into its own hands in an effort to end the reign of terror which the 1. w W. had ushered in The proceedings at Chicago which have resulted not in the hung jury for which some of the defend ants hoped, but in an honest verdict quickly handed down, provided the better way the American way-of dealing with those among us who would stab in the back our defenders with the colors and abuse the hospitality of all Americans. The Chicago verdict will clear the air all over the country and have a quieting effect upon other in- dustrial centers where labor's disloyal min ority, by running foul of the law has fin ally come into collision with an outraged and indignant public opinion. It Is only the latest evidence that those who think the American people are not taking the war seriously are much mistaken.

HAYDEN AND THE DRAFT

It Is only just and fair to state at this time that Congressman Carl Hayden of this state, now seeking nomination and re- election, voted against the draft And also that on April ) of last year he opposed the draft in a speech in which he expressed his views on this greatest achievement of all American national life as follows:
 Tt is universally admitted that the limited Der of conscrpts actually obtained in both the North and South almost worthless fighting material Many of them deserted at the first opportunity, and but few showed that they had any heart in the work of the The chief result of the draft both sides was that this plan kept thousands of veterans in the armies who would have otherwise been discharged and thousands voluntarily enlisted to avoid the ODIUM OF CONFUSION"

The Picardy battle from east of Noyon to Arras has developed into a rear guard engagement as the retreating Germans en- deavor to maintain their front while they withdraw heavy masses of troops and guns and stores to safer positions In the mean time Foch Is harassing them to the utter most. The toll of prisoners and cannon he has exacted SO far hes been considerable
 He may yet be able to inflict still more severe losses upon the defeated troops of the kaiser. It Is to be hoped so, for if they are allowed to withdraw in good order to the old Hindenburg line they may yet be well able to recoup and restore their shat tered lines and launch another attack upon a great scale. It is not believed that Foch will let his beaten and half demoralized foes get away without suffering a final giant blow for winter contemplation. Such blow would not only make the winter dou- ply hard in Germany, but it would have staggering effect upon the peace drive the willy Hun Is sure to start as soon as cold weather stops activities on the fighting line.

And now they declare that the Yukon gold country is turning from gold to silver mining. During the great gold rush in Alaska many silver lodes and prospects were noted, but silver was cheap and gold precious, sc no one paid much attention to the white metal. It is different now. Silver has risen in value until even the eyes of the gold miners have been turned to the long neglected prospect holes in.the Yukon and old abandoned mines in the west as well.

A headline of yesterday read: British approach Combles."

Well, in as many weeks as ii took months before, the allies, striking from point farther west, too. have advanced to Combles In the old Somme offensive the allies struck at only

To those who wonder why the French do not push forward in one grand attack from the south and take Noyon it might be ex- plained that two high and wooded hills guard the city from this direction. Until the French can take Hill l60 and Hill No. l65 Noyon is safe from capture from the south. Only by breaking the line running north to Rove can Noyon be taken by as- sault It is true that the French are also southeast of the pocketed city but the broad stream of the Disc protects it from this army. But be sure of one thing, Noyon is doomed. Within day or week the Ger mans must evacuate this position for it is dominated on three sides by allied guns.
