WELL KNOWS TRUMPET CALL

Army Horse May Lose Its Rider but Always Will Keep Its Formation and Seek Camp. • It was recently announced that the Dutch across the border knew the Germans had been routed by the riderless horses they saw galloping about in troops. / The return of riderless horses to camp is an almost certain sign of a rout that amounts almost to annihilation. A horse may lose its trooper, but, unless it Is wounded, it will nearly always keep on with the rest. If the battle is lost, and the army is driven from the field in confusion, the ownerless horses will return to camp or remain on the field, often galloping about in military formation, but avoiding the wounded. An army horse knows the trumpet call as well as its rider, and when a squadron forms up to charge it will strain at the bit, anxious to be off: but it does not like waiting doing nothing, especially if exposed to fire. Many attempts have been made to extend the Geneva convention to animals; the proposal has received ■sympathy everywhere, but nothing definite has yet been done, though every soldier does his best for his steed so far as in him lies.

In this war the purple, instead of red, Genevan cross has been adopted by British horse lovers who intend to follow the battle lines to minister to wounded horses, and to assist riderless charges to escape hunger.

British Nobles as Police.

While all classes of Englishmen, from the highest to the lowest, are fighting for king and country on the battlefield, an almost equally inspiring picture of National unity may be witnessed in England’s capital. For the further protection of life and property hundreds upon hundreds of special police, from marquises to mechanics, are ready for duty in London. Two of the newest and most distinguished members of the force are the marquis of Lincolnshire and the earl of Selbome.

American Goods in Australia.

Australia has been making steady Increases in her purchases of goods from the United States in the five year period following 1909. The total in 1912 was more than $52,000,000.

PRINCES IN PAWN FROM FORTUNES LOST IN THE WAR

Royalty in England Reduced to Penury by Vanished Funds. EVEN QUEEN FEELS PINCH King George Comes to Aid of Relative Too Poverty-Stricken to Pay His Grocery Bill —Prince Arthur Has Rich Wife. t-. London. —All because of the war, which spares neither the high nor the lowly, several minor royalties resident in England find themselves within hailing distance of the poorhouse as a result of having been deprived altogether of their incomes and several of them actually would be in want but for the fact that £ing George has come to their assistance. Meanwhile not only the king and queen themselves but several of the other most exalted members of the royal circle have been hard hit in a financial way, and at least one of them has been placed in a mightily embarrassing and humiliating position. Prince Christian’s Income Gone. Prince and Princess Christian, for example, have had their entire private income which came from German government annuities and money invested in German securities swept away. The prince, however, as the chief ranger at Windsor, has a salary of $2,000 per annum and as such he also occupies Cumberland Lodge,, one of the finest residences at Windsor in the king’s gift, rent free. It is absolutely impossible for the prince to keep up this establishment on a salary of only $2,000 a year, .which would not be sufficient to pay the servants’ wages. The prince and his family before the war had an income of about $14,000 per annum, and this has now absolutely ceased, for it all came from Germany. t prince Christian, like many other minor royalties in England, lived up to* the last penny of his income, and when sudden financial pressure came he had no resources of any sort to fall back on, and tradesmen about Windsor, to many of whom the prince was in debt, refused to deliver the usual monthly orders without cash when the prince could not pay. King George came to his relative's aid and arranged-with the tradespeople at Windsor, to supply Cumberland lodge with necessaries in the way of food.

Queen’s Brother In Bad Way. Prince and Princess Alexander of Teck, who are notoriously among the most impecunious of royalties in England, have also lost practically all their private means through the war. The prince, who is, of course, Queen Mary’s brother, received an income of about four thousand dollars per annum from interest on mortgages on real estate in North Germany, and the princess has about two thousand dollars per annum from German government annuities. Queen Mary has had to come from time to time, to the aid of her brother, but her majesty now has to support both him and the princess and their family altogether. The prince, was appointed some little while back governor general of Canada, but it is unlikely that his royal highness will go to Canada until the war is over. The prince and princess with their family are now occupying a few rooms at St. James palace. They have but two servants and are in the plainest and, simplest manner. • - Of all royalties In England the ex-

king of Portugal and Queen Victoria, his wife, have suffered most severely in pocket by the war, and the royal residence at Twickenham has been thrown into utter confusion. The whole of the income of the queen was derived from German sources, and of course ceased, but that did not amount to very much, not more than a few hundreds a year. But King Manuel, who had invested very largely lately in Russian and French securities, on the advice of his banker in Paris, has for the moment been deprived of nearly the whole of a considerable income, excepting the interest on some othis holdings in British industrial concerns, which have declined about 50 per cent in capital value. The ex-monarch is in far worse circumstances, as a matter of fact, than he was at the time of the revolution in Portugal. He has no resources to fall back on and no one to come to his aid. Queen Alexandra Feels Pinch. Queen Alexandra has also felt the results of the war severely. Her majesty’s extravagance and carelessness about her money affairs are matters that have caused a good deal of talk in the royal entourage of late. During the last season Queen Alexandra entertained in the most elaborate and costly way at Marlborough house, and as a result piled up very considerable liabilities; to pay these it became necessary that she should overdraw her banking account for a sum of $250,000; while arrangements were being made for this overdraft the war broke out, and her majesty’s bankers would not entertain the idea of the loan. Her majesty for some short time was placed in the most embarrassed position, for she could not obtain even any ready money, a fairly plentiful supply of which is necessary to keep the establishments at Marlborough house and Sandringham going, and there were certain liabilities to tradespeople which, though there was no actual legal obligation on the part of Quene Alexandra to pay at once, payment could not be withheld without giving rise to unpleasant gossip. Prince Arthur of Connaught Ims lost

Death Dealt by Machines—Battles Turn to Slaughter. % Wounded Officer Tells Striking Story of Horrors Attendant Upon Present Manner of Killing in the Great European Conflict. Paris. —In an interview a wounded officer told a striking story of the .terrible results of war with modern arms. “This is not a war of men,” he said; “it is a war of machines. There is an appalling soullessness about it that is inhuman. Men turn handles and death flies out in large bundles. That is what this battle has been. It is all really one battle on the Marne and the Aisne. “No one can even conceive what the battle has been who has not seen th er battlefield. Men could never kill one another by heaps’ and hecatombs. They would sicken at such wholesale slaughter. They would cry: ‘We are soldiers, not butchers.’ A battlefield should not be an abattoir. “Only machines ingeniously constructed to destroy men as locusts have to be destroyed when they sweep over fertile land, only automatic death dealers withopt heart, pity, or remorse could carpet the earth with the dead in this frightful way.” Another witness to the terrific slaughter, which is not yet generally realized, said that the French shells burst with terrific effect and tear legs and arms to pieces. If the wound is

an income of about three thousarfd five hundred dollars arising out of money invested in Germany, which was settled on him by his maternal grandfather. This was all the private means the prince had before his marriage, but he got, of course, an immense fortune with his wife, and neither he nor the princess have suffered any special Inconvenience by the present financial disturbances. The Duke of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, a first cousin of King George, who has thrown in his lot with the German and is fighting for his native country, has lost for the nlMnent a sum of about nine thousand dollars which he had banked in London and payment of which has been refused to the duke’s agent in London. Kaiser Sells English Securities. Before the outbreak of the war the kaiser was holder of a considerable block of English government stock and also of some British industrial Shares and railroad stock. Over two months ago the kaiser disposed of his holdings, which was assigned in trust for the German emperor to the Princess Henry of Battenberg. The princess, by the way, is one of the wealthiest of foreign royalties in London. She will continue to receive the interest on it until the end of the war, when she will pass it back to the kaiser. King George derives practically all his private income from money invested either in England or the colonies, and has not, therefore, suffered any special loss by the war, but it has necessitated many calls on his purse both in the way of helping his relatives at home and in the subscriptions he has been called upon to give to the various charitable funds for the relief of distress. The most extraordinary economies have, therefore, been made in the management of the royal establishment. Porridge and fruit form the regular breakfast now at Buckingham palace, with eggs and bacon once a week and fish twice a week. Meat has appeared on the royal table only once a week since the outbreak of war. One way and another the living expenses at Buckingham palace have been reduced by nearly 50 per cent.

in the head or stomach it is all over. This soldier added: • “It is quite true, too, that many men have been found dead without any wound. We find them as we go over the fields of battle kneeling or sitting in the trenches in a natural attitude just as if they were still alive, just as they knelt or sat when a shell burst and in an instant suffocated them with melinite fumes.” A Red Cross nurse, a clever, businesslike French woman, who had experience in the Balkan war, said: “Germany must be one vast hospital and France is beginning to be the same. I have just traveled from the Atlantic coast through the center of France and saw wounded everywhere. “Already beds are becoming scarce, though fortunately there are so many slightly wounded, that is, cleanly injured, that they recover quickly and make room for newcomers. But it brings home the immensity of the struggle to see etery available school, institution and public hall turned into a hospital as well as every big railway station and numberless private houses.”

War Brings People to Church.

Manchester, England.—Greatly increased attendance at church services Is one of the marked effects of the war (noted by Manchester clergymen. One of them In a Manchester paper says: “It is surprising to see as large an attendance at a week night service as at a Sunday survice. It is the instinct of those left' at home to find fellowship at such times. But the outstanding factor is that the war is bringing us as a nation into the pres ence of the realities of life and death/

%rnz£/n Is it possible there is a woman in this country who continues to suffer without giving Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound a trial after all the evidence that is continually being published, which proves beyond contradiction that this grand old medicine has relieved more suffering among women than any other one medicine in the world? We have published in the newspapers of the United States more genuine testimonial letters than have ever been published in the interest of any other medicine for women—and every year we publish many new testimonials, all genuine and true. Here are three never before published: From Mrs. S. T. Richmond, Providence, R. I. Providence, R. I.—“ For the benefit of women who suffer as I hav» done I wish to state what Lydia E.

Women Active In Battle.

In all probability there were numerous women engaged in our Civil war, especially in the gallant South. During the present Mexican anarchy and brigandage the brown women south of the Rio Grande have followed their men by hundreds and gone into the fight with rifles in their hands. The Boer women of the Transvaal fought beside their men in practically every battle of both wars with England and won many layrels by their excellence in marksmanship and bravery. There are battalions of Chinese women ready to support the celestial republic. It Is reported that female battalions are being formed in Ireland to defend the homes from invasion. Throughout the Balkans women are preparing for military activities.

DISFIGURED WITH ERUPTION

2406 Copeland St., Cincinnati, Ohio. —“For one. year my right wrist and left arm from elbow to shoulder were disfigured with sore eruption. The eczema broke out with a rash and looked like raw beef steak. It itched and burned continually and I had to keep my arms covered with soft linen cloths. I could not sleep at night. "I was told it was chronic case of eczema and got medicine but it had no effect. Then I sent for a sample of Cuticura Soap and Ointment and the first application seemed to help me. I purchased two cakes of Cuticura Soap and a box of Cuticura Ointment and in six weeks my arms and wrists were thoroughly healed.” (Signed) Mrs. John Clark, Jan. 26, ’l4.

Find a Fortune in Sewers.

The revenue last year from the Bradford corporation’s grease factory amounted to over $250,000. This sum represents what other people have thrown away, for the grease is extracted from waste products of the wool industry in the English city. When the crude wool is washed at Bradford some of its natural fat is washed into the sewejfe. By collecting the “sludge” «md extracting the fatty substances, the city is able to dispose of about 120 tons of valuable grease per week. <

Little Julia’s mother had just re- ’ turned from a visit to the hairdresser with her hair all fluffy. “Oh, mamma,” cried Julia, “who fricasseed your hair?” “Listen, Elva,” said the fond mother, “and I’ll read to you aboyt heaven and its beautiful golden streets.” “Never mind, mamma,” replied the little miss, “I’d rather wait until I get there and be s’prised." Clara, aged five, was hurrying to bed, being very weary after a long journey, when her- mother reminded her that she had fofrgotten to say her prayer. Dropping on her knees by the side of her cot and folding her hands she said: “Please, Lord, what I said last night i goes tonight. Amen.”
