Why will women drag along from day
TO day, year in and year out, suffering
such misery as did Mrs. Courtney, when
such letters as this are continually being
published. Every woman who suffers
from displacements, Irregularities, in
flammation, liberation, backache, ner-
vousness, or who is passing through the

Belgrade-In Belgrade, capital of
the new kingdom of the Serbs, Croats
and Slovenes, everybody is flushed
with triumph, confident of the future,
and regards present troubles only as
temporary inconvenience.
But Belgrade was left in a shocking
ly dirty condition by the Bulgars. The
courtyards of the houses are filled
with refuse. There is no collection
of garbage because there are no con-
veyances in which to collect it. The
shortage of water emphasizes the dam
ger. All the doctors, sanitary authori-
ties and officials are holding their
breath, fearing an epidemic of sonae
sort.
If the Danube freezes (and 1t nearly
always does freeze) the communica-
ton of Belgrade with the outside
world will be still further enormously
decreased. The possibility of bring

Vancouver, Wash.-The reports from
many parts of the United States that
some women of an adventurous nature
married soldiers in the high hopes that
the husbands would be killed and that
they would collect the insurance money
are based on fact, it is believed here.
A young woman, well dressed, went
to the post Office recently and received
a letter. She opened, read and langh-
ed loudly. A man driving machine in
which she rode downtown asked her
what was the good news. She aston
ished him by replying that her husband
bad been killed and she would get the
$4,000 insurance.

HUGE GUNS IN GOTHAM
GARDENS TO REPEL HUN

New York.-Huge mortars,
standing on concrete emplace-
ments and abundantly supplied
with half-ton projectiles, were
erected during the war among
the flowers and shrubbery of pri-
vate gardens in New York city
and elsewhere along the Allan
tic coast, ready to repel the at
tacks of German naval or air
ships, Macmillan TOch, one Of
the first American camoufleurs,
told the New York section of the
American Chemical society here.
Mr.. Toch, who directed sew
eral of the navy's important
camouf1age projects, spoke with
the consent Of Secretary Dan
iels. He described how honey
suckle, morning glory and ivy,
as well as paints, had been en-
ployed to conceal or lower the
visibility of coast Notifications.

Another contradiction is to be found
In the stories that come. of conditions
in Russia. American commissioners,
and most Of the press reports, have
led us to believe that there was little
to be found there but murder, anar-
chy, riot and starvation. Agents of
the French government returning from
Russia report that wholesale massa-
ores have ceased generally, that order
prevails and industries are being re-
sumed. It is said that even the rail-
roads are returning to something like
normal service, trains being run be-
tween Moscow and Petrograd on
scheduled time. Conservative influ-
ences are making themselves manifest
in every direction in Russia, it is said,
and officials in power appear to real
lie the necessity of recognizing indi-
vidual rights to property in order to
maintain their authority.
A bolshevik commissioner told the
correspondent mentioned above that if
the allies would withdraw their sup
port from those who are opposing the
soviet government the civil wars
would end in thirty days, the gran
aries of Siberia would be opened, the
army demobilized, the factories start
ed again and the present want and
misery ended. Ell
Dispatches from Paris indicate that
the allied peace delegates are slowly
changing their opinion concerning the
Russian situation, though not in the
least minimizing the threat of boil
shevism to the rest of the world.
Stephen Pichon, foreign minister, told
the French chamber of deputies that
the policy of the allies in Russia was
not "war" but a "pacifying" policy
and designed to save Russia from the
grip of Germany.

The league of nations commission,
with President Wilson in the chair,
completed it's consideration of the
covenant of the league Wednesday
night. 1t was turned over to a draft
ing committee which was to go over
it carefully and return it to the COM
mission for final consideration before
it was reported to the executive COM
mittee of the peace conference. Many
proposed amendments to the original
plan were considered, including seven
suggested by Charles e. Hughes and
those drafted by former President
Taft. 1t was understood that Mr.. Will
son had deferred the presentation OF
amendments safeguarding the Monroe
doctrine and exempting domestic
questions from the leagues jurisdic-
ton. No amendment has been incor-
porated that specifically meets the de-
mands of Japan for recognition Of the
equality of nationals.
Among the amendments adopted was
one providing that the offices Of the
league are open to women as well as
to m IN, and one permitting the with
drawal of a member on two years
notice, but not until such member has
filed it's international obligations.

writes that if the bo1shevists cal,
bring food to the hungry people there
they can retain their control; that if
they fail there will be another revolu-
ton. Is it true, then, that hunger is
the food on which bolshevism thrives?
When the Hungarian revolutiOnists
made overtures to the people of Ger
man Austria, the latter replied they
could not adopt bolshevism because
they were dependent on the allies for
their food-the inference being that il
they were not thus dependent they
also would set up soviet govern
ment.

The industrial situation in Great
Britain has been greatly alleviated by
the report of the committee appoint
ed by the industrial conference that
met last February, consisting of thirty
employers and thirty trades unionists.
The committee recommends that a
legal maximum working week of 48
hours be established, that systematic
overtime be discouraged and THAT
legal time wage rates of universal ap-
plicability be fixed. To meet the prob
lem of unemployment and the care of
the unemployed, it suggests state de-

German state property in territories
to be .ceded by the peace treaty and
the order in which the obligations of
Germany shall be imposed. AS for
the reparation to be demanded of the
Huns, the economic experts have
found the amount of damage inflicted
by the Germans was between $780,
00O,0OO0OO and $45,OOOOOO, but as
this is beyond the ability Of Germany
to pay, the sum is being scaled down
and probably will be less than $780,
000,0O00OO.
If the treaty with Germany is such
as 1t is supposed to be, Germany will
refuse to sign 1t. Anyhow, that is
what the press and many of the lead
ers say. Doctor Dernburg of unsav-

pie will not accept q treaty of peace

a solemn oath that the government
will not surrender one inch of German
territory. The Prussian national assem-
bly, has voted against the relinquish-
ment of any of the Rhine territory, es-
pecially the Saar basin. All over the
country meetings are being held, or
ganized by Foreign Secretary Brock
dorff- Rantzau, to protest against an
"enslaving peace" This movement,
in which all factions are joining, is
being used to reawaken the national
spirit, and the threat. of spreading
bolshevism if the demands of the Ger
man people are not met is being used
by the leaders to intimidate the inter-
allied peace delegates. The latter
however, do not seem especially wor-
ried, evidently taking it for granted
that Germany will have to accept any
treaty they formulate. If the Ger
mans do submit to bolshevism, it will
be of their own free will, and mainly
in spite and not because they pre-
fer that form of government"

With Hungary the case is different,
and it may well be that that coun-
try's new soviet government will re-
fuse to sign any treaty with the al

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKET WAS RuoYANr.

| New York, July 10.--Cumulati tive in- dications of increasing monetary ease ad additional evidence of general in- dustrial revival were the controlling factors in the further irregular ad- vance of the stock market today. Early gains of one to five points were partially impaired in the later dealings on extensive offerings, pre- sumably from professional sources. where certain features of President . Wilson's address to congress aroused some misgivings.

NORWICH TO HAVE BASEBALL CLUB

The management of the Norwich baseball club have, secured the ser vices of Coach Eddie Mckay and Ed die Murray to pilot their team through the season. Mckay who has had much experience in coaching successf t>steams will act in that ca pacity as well as taking an active part in the game. He will be seen at sec ond base. Murray is to assume the role of field captain and will play at short. This is thought to be. a wonders full combination for the mid way sta- ton for it will be remembered that these two men filled the respective positions all through high school and college days well as ip semi-pro ball.
 The rest of the lineup follows: Chase, the hospital backstop. will be seen behind the bat. Simcox of semi-pro fame will be on the mound. Counihan will hold down the initial sack while Freddie Dugas of Taftville will play, at third.
