In the cases and restaurants men and women "ravel;” in the street cars and stores no hands are idle. The American government may not be able to send cotton to Austria, but private American citizens may act with the Red Cross in the name of humanity, and help by making their shipments by parcels post. Two weeks ago, nine hundred men, all terribly wounded by shrapnel, were brought to the station at Vienna. They had traveled seventy-five hours from the battle field in Galacia, near Lemberg. There aren't enough nurses in Vienna. Many of,them have been working twenty-four hours a day. One girl has a ward of eighteen of the worse wounded. She is always alone with them/ In her ward within the past five weeks a dozen men have died during the night, when she, a former society girl, was the only person to ease their last hours. “I'm getting used to the death rattle,” she told me today. “It wouldn't be so terrible if we had soft dressings for the wounds.” LOST —Bundle, containing a suit of clothes.
