Her First Case

By JEAN M. COLMER

Elizabeth returned from her first ambulance class flushed, but elated. For the first time in her not-too eventful existence of twenty-one years, Elizabeth was roused. The call to arms was sounding; brave men flocked to join the reserve force; brave women felt the call also and did their utmost to nip their incompetency in the bud. Elizabeth, tbo, was carried away by the universal enthusiasm, and, with feelings of excitement not tmmlxed with alarm, she attended classes of “first-aid,” and rejoiced to feel herself at last a useful member of the community. Elizabeth in her ardour became even more trying to the family circle than in her previous lethargic state. No room In the home and no member of the household could escape the merciless hand of Elizabeth In all the first fire of her patriotic enthusiasm. The drawing-room, an elegant apartment upholstered in the best of taste, became littered with improvised splints and rolls of coarse material, known to Elizabeth as the “Esmark” bandage. Everybody down to the second footman had undergone his share of torture while Elizabeth, with untiring energy, did head or “cranium” bandages, and practiced also how to make a broken arm comfortable until the arrival of the doctor. Upon one memorable occasion she had improvised a splint from the board of a packing case,, and quite over-looking the fact that there were four bent and rusty nails protruding from it, she pressed with her usual vigor upon the butler’s arm, and only found out the mistake when the unhappy man cried out with pain, and displayed a hand mutilated and bleeding. This, howeevr, furnished a new and most entertaining test for Elizabeth’s skill, who did not rest until her victim retired, pale and trembling, with arm in sling, and looks which expressed the most acute suffering. On yet another occasion Elizabeth seized upon her father, who was going off in state to a dinner at which roy-

alty was expected. She insisted upon his waiting while she demonstrated to him the correct way of dealing with a broken collarrbone. A pad being necessary to place beneath the patient’s arm, and her father being in a very great hurry, Elizabeth could think of nothing better suited to her needs than a sponge. She accordingly fetched one, and plaoed it beneath her parent’s unfortunately, she realized too late that a sponge should be carefully squeezed before being placed upon a court suit of velvet. ' But even if zeal did at times outrun her performance, her intentions were undeniably good, and her family, though , not well versed themselves in the subject of “firstaid,” was justly proud of their patriotic daughter. The first course of lectures was drawing to a close, the examination w’as at hand, and what Elizabeth felt she most needed was practical experience. :—_> 1 * She roamed the park daily in search of accidents. She frequently visited the Rotten Row, and found herself fervently longing that some unfortunate individual might see fit to break a limb. Elizabeth’s search, however, remained fdr many weeks unrewarded. She became quite despondent, and indeed almost lost her faith in the deadllness of motor ’buses. Had she been able to drive her own car, doubtless her efforts would have freuently met with success; but Richards, the chauffeur, who had suffered acutely in Elizabeth’s hands more than once, was wise enough to drive even more prudently than ever. Elizabeth now never left the house without a pair of scissors and a box of safety pins in her pocket She relied upon her petticoat or even her skirt for bandage, and carried an umbrella in all weathers, which in an emergency could quickly be’converted into a'splint. At last the great day came; but unfortunately it did not come at a time when Elizabeth was-entirely prepared. She was going out to lunch, and consequently was magnificently clothed a la Dlrectoire. As it is impossible to carry scissors and safety pins in

a D’rectc’re costume, and as an umbrella would be decidedly in the way, Elizabeth was not so fully equipped for emergency as was her custom. It happened in this way. As Elizabeth passed the park gates in her motor, a young man rode out ln> to the road. His horse was nervous, add chose to take fright at' the big car. Elizabeth did not see clearly just what happened, which was not surprising, as she shut her eyes and placed her fingers firmly in her ears as the horse began to plunge. To be quite fair, however, Elizabeth recovered quickly, and flinging open the window, ordered Richards to pull up Instantly. She then dismounted, splendidly Dlrectoire as she was, and ran quickly through the mud to where the young man lay in the midst of a swiftly gathering crowd. Forcing her way to his side, she took in the situation at a glance. Pushing away the policeman who was supporting the boy’s head, she pulled off her Dlrectoire jacket, and rolling it into a ball with fine carelessness, she placed It in the mud as a support to the young man's shoulders. Imagine her surprise when, as she was about to make an elaborate “cranium bandage” upon the Esmark basis, a stalwart young woman forced her way through the crowd and knelt down at his other side with a look of great determination upon her stern features. Elizabeth was nonplussed, and regarded her rival with annoyance, which became more acute as she watched the young woman produce scissors and pins from her pocket and an immense handkerchief from her sleeve. Elizabeth got up from her knees and looked round her in dismay to have her lawful prey snatched from her thus was too much. As she stood there in great indecision, her eye fell upon another female form forcing itself to the center of the crowd. The newcomer, a fair girl of seventeen cr so, advanced rapidly and with a busi-ness-like air, rolling up her sleeves as she came. The sight of another in possession did not seem to disturb her in the least; she knelt also in the mud, and for lack of something better to do, fell to mopping the brow of the prostrate young man with a twoinch handkerchief. Elizabeth’s gaze grew wilder, she took a step backwards and turned to flee. As she did so, she collided violently with a girl who, armed with rolls of ’Esmark,” was flying towards the scene of action. Elizabeth pressed her brow in anguish. She caught the policeman’s eye—even he was was smiling, and a subdued titter went round the crowd. v With a shudder Elizabeth gathered up her clinging skirts, now decorated with huge patches of mud, and fled away through the press. With a cry of joy she saw the motor drawn up beside the curb, and with a sob she flung herself inside and slammed the door. It was only when she had left the scene of action far behind that Elizabeth thought of her Directoire jacket lying in a puddle beneath the young man’s shoulders. The thought was too much for her and she dissolved into tears.

Good Reason for His Action.

In Germany during a war a captain of cavalry was ordered out upon a foraging expedition. He marched to the district assigned to him. It was a lonely valley, but finding in the midst of it a small cottage, he knocked at the door. It was opened by an old man, who leaned upon a staff. “Father,” said the officer, “show me a field where I may set my troop to forage.” The old man led them out of the valley and after a quarter of an hour’s march they came to a fine field of barley. “Here is what we are in search of,” exclaimed the captain. “Wait a few minutes,” said man. “Follow me a little further.” At the distance of a mile they arrived at another field of barley. The troop alighted, cut down the grain, trussed it and rode off. The officer then said to his conductor: “You have given yourself and us needless trouble; the first field was better than this.” “Very true, sir,” replied the good old- man, “but it was not mine.”

Sun and Fire Symbols.

There are to be found occasionally upon the walls of old brick houses, at about the line of division between the first and second stories, flat pieces of iron five or six inches in length and shaped somewhat like the letter “S.” The use of these articles was clearly brought from England, where it is still continued, and there is a curious origin and meaning attached to them. The figure in question is an early symbol of the sun. It Is still used Jn Herefordshire and other parts of England. There one is informed that the reason for the particular form of these irons Is that they were made thus iff order to protect the house from fire as well as from collapse.—Harper’s Weekly.

How the Alsatian Was Saved.

The kaiser’s thunderings against Al-sace-Lorraine recall a story illustrating the state of feeling between the French and Germans in Alsace. An Alsatian fell into the Rhine. He was -unable to swim, but he managed to lay hold on a log and screamed out in his native French help. A German policeman the bank regarded him with a cold eye, but took no further notice. The drowning man, strangling his native pride, repeated his cry in German, but still the policeman stood coldly watching him. Then an Inspiration came to the man in the water. “Vive la France!" he cried. And the policeman Immediately plunged into the river and arrested him. A

Judge E. D. Crumpacker Defends President Taft.

Representative E. D. Crumpacker, of this district, voted to sustain the President’s veto of the wool bill. Mr. Crumpacker points out, as the people well know, that all efforts made by congress during the present session to revise the tariff have been for political effect, and with no sincere and honest desire to right any wrongs that may exist in the tariff system. The democrats are playing politics. They want to make argument to bolster up Free Trade Wilson in the present campaign. But the people are not fooled with sueh pretenses. In a brief but pointed speech defending the President’s action Mr. Crumpacker said: “Mr. Speaker, the whole pretense on the majority side of this house to enact legislation for the honest revision of the tariff is the most consummate farce that has been enacted in this house in modern years. 1 have reached the conclusion that gentlemen on the other side of the aisle at no time have had any purpose, intention or desire to revise the various tariff schedules. They are nursing the whole subject for use in the campaign. “In the summer of 1911, in the first session of this congress, this bill in identically the same terms went through the two houses of congress, went to the president, and was vetoed by him on the ground that there was no way of finding out, no way of ascertaining whether it. would be destructive to the woolen industries of ~Th~e~ country. made in support of the measure it would have been not only disastrous but absolutely destructive of that industry, because men who advocated it boasted of the fact that it had eliminated every vestige of protection from the wool tariff. “The tariff board had made no report at that time. Since then it has. The congress has had access to that great report which shows thorough research upon this great question for eight months. The minority members of the ways and means committee presented a bill to the house at this session conforming strictly to the report, reducing the duty on wool on an average %f 45 per cent. “Gentlmen on the other side of the aisle knew well enough that if the bill had gone through the two houses of congress if would have become a law. There was an opportunity to reduce the tariff on wool 45 per cent. That was rejected and they have resurrected brought out the same old cadaver that went to the administration dissecting table last August, the same identical bill, and presented it to the President and it has met the same fate as it did before. They have not changed it an iota, they have not even galvanized it or deodorized it and yet they pretend to desire its enactment. They knew the President, would disapprove the bill when they passed it. They were careful to defeat all bills they thought would be approved by the president and persisted in supporting a measure they knew was impossible. They are not fooling anybody but themselves.”

Rats Will Disappear— Hats Will be Smaller.

Along with the banishment of the tube and hobble 'skirt comes the announcement that fall and winter hats for the fair sex will be very much smaller.Jn appearance they hark back to the joyous days when men had the Courage to saunter forth in the little pancake lids, now emulated in old tintypes and on the vaudeville stage. The powers that be in Paris, who say what shall be worn, have disapproved of the extremely wide hats recently affected in this country. Milliners returning from the other side say the styles constitute a revolution. The idea of the designers is to make the head appear as small as possible, and this means not a wisp of false hair, hay, alfalfaj rag carpet, cotton waste or„, any other auxiliary can be worn. The women blessed with abundant hair will have to brush it down tightly if she is to be within shouting distance of the styles. The turbans are the most interesting. They are rather shy on material, but what they lack in that respect they make up in “style;” Designed to fit down over the ears the head is compressed, as it were, into the smallest possible space. The hair, as a consequence, is dressed very flat in the back and on top and is pulled out on the sides and low in the front, simulating a fringe on the forehead.
