Women Soldiers.

There were literally scores of women who served in the Northern and Southern armies. Sincfe the war with Germany began more than one woman has been discovered in a soldier’s uniform. One, at least, got almost to France before she was detected. We men of America who, for whatever reasons, are not in the military service honor very greatly the Russian women who entered the army ‘‘in the hope of inspiring the men of Russia.” We beg to assure them that in case of desperate need the women of America would not hesitate to serve also in the war against the Hun. They have proved their valor in past wars.
