French Amazons.

The French, transferring some sol
diers from Wrange's army to their
own foreign legion, have discovered
one Of them to be a woman. They
have engaged her as a nurse; but
there have been many cases in which
they have allowed women to bear
arms in their service. There were,
for instance, the Sisters Fernig, who
fought at Jemmappes, and of whom
Dumeuriez reported that "they were
even more remarkable for the remark
able propriety of their behaviour
than for their reckless daring" One
of them saved Belgian's life, killing
two Uhlans in order to do so; and
the Belgian, having recovered from
his wounds, vowed that he would seek
her out and marry her. 1t took him
years to track her down3 but the quest
was eventually successful. The mar
riage was duly celebrated, and two Of
the children born of it did well in the
world, one of them becoming honorary
counselor at the Douai Court OF Ap-
peal, and the other inspector general

AWARDED PRIZE FOR VIRTUE
Picturesque and Ancient Ceremony
That Is Annually Performed in
French Municipality.

Every year, in the week following
Pentecost, the municipal council of
Faremoutiers following tradition
three centuries old, solemnly awards
the prize for virtue established by NJ.
Lambert of Nee, civic benefactor, in
the year 1864.
The presentation follows an original
and charming ceremony, every detail
of which was arranged by the foun-
der. Thirteen maidens, chosen as the
most virtuous in the community, pre-
sent themselves before the municipal
council which selected them. In an
urn are twelve blank ballots and thir-
teenth bearing the following words:
God has chosen me-" Each candi-
date, with eyes closed, draws ballot,
and she who draws the ballot with the
motto is forthwith declared winner of
the rose of virtue.
This year Destiny chose Madeleine
Thomas, dressmaker, sixteen years
old. Amidst general acclamation, the
happy winner was escorted on the arm
of the mayor, who presented her with
a sheaf of flowers, to the home of her
parents, while a musical society, es-
pecially organized for the occasion,
played appropriate airs.-From LIE Pc

lieve that the Near East situation

Of helpless orphans children Of
Christian parents in Moslem land
who must be helped by our people
If they are to survive. The Ar
menians have preserved their race,
their religion and their language un-
der conditions of distress for over a

of better fate than to perish, and
l believe that will be their fate with
out substantial financial and moral
support from the good people OF our
country.
