WOMEN AND MEDICINE

In Europe, years ago, woman
named Hildegarde wrote a; notable
book on medicinal plants. In those
DAYS the men were too busy bother,
ing abopt dogmas of religion and
medicine, and the study of herbs was
thought beneath their notice.
It was the women, however, who
mostly conducted the hospitals and
cared for the sick, and thus they
learned much of he great value. They
let the men fight out the questions
of theories.

London, Sept. 18-Great Britain will immediately modify her Near East war policy.
 Military preparations will be continued, but the War Office announced that there is no necessity at this mo- ment for large British mill tary endorsements in the Near East.
 The revelation that "the whole British Empire was preparing for war; has had violent reaction. Hos tile criticism of the British policy has come from both Italy and France and a powerful section of the British press is demanding that Great Britain maintain the peace in the Near East instead of going to war against Tur- key.
 It is learned that the British do- minion premiers have privately sent word to Premier Lloyd George urging him to use every endeavor to avert war.
 There was a meeting of the cabinet at noon. after which it was explained d htat the semi official statement is- sued Saturday regarding Britain 8 war polscy in the Near East was not a cabinet announcement but merely the expression of two or three ministers.
 Dissensions are threatened in the cabinet over British policy. Premier Lloyd George is hopeful of an agree ment and at his office in Downing street it was en1phatically declared that there are no plans for general mobilization"
 At Downing street it was said that full opportunity would be given for open ccnversatio among the allies to reach a mutual understanding
 The only development of a military nature attending the cabinet meeting today was the presence of Lord Ca van, chief of the general staff and a representative of the admiralty

Ready for Rescue Dash.

At 6:l5 the Assure had widened to a It inch hole leading into the Arr gonaut. The draught became so heavy it required two men to hold the emergency doors which had been provided to control the air passage.
 The mine rescue crew is ready for the signal to go below as soon as the hole is large enough to serve as a passage for the exploration of the Argonaut's 4,2oo foot drift.
 H. c. Hutchinson, president of the Kennedy mine, announced at 5:20 a. m.. that the last blast had opened up the Assure in the rock from the $500 foot level of the Kennedy to the A. POO drift of the Argonaut and that a strong current of air was passing through into the lArgonaut drift from the Kennedy. It was pointed out, however, that this does not mean they have broken through and it may be several hours before the real 'fbreak'' comes into the ill-fated Ar gonaut so it can a9e~ssSSs:tsscee99A ~ssSSssescee99A
 After the-4ast blast, according V. $. Garbarini, the Argonaut super intendent who just came to the sur- face after exploring the rescue chan nel, the air cleared Immediately in- ing gases that each previous shot had precipitated- The penetration is only an airwal wand not large enough to permit the passage of the mine rescue crew which at this hour was still slumbering away awaiting a call for the rescue dash. Timbering may be necessary to let the reScuers through and this will take time, just how much Garbarini would not speculate, saying bulletins announcing the progress will come to the surface ever twenty minutes.
 First indications of the end came early last evening when a shot show ed the face of the final barrier was almost in sight and the drilling took the difsgers into soft wet rock and for several hours crowds gathered, many of which were relatives of the men buried for beneath the surface and for whom only the slightest hope is held that they are alive
