SAFETY OF TROOP GREATER THAU OF PRIVATECITIZEIIS Corporal Abbott Says Soldier's Life Less Dangerous Either in Time of Peace or Warfare.

"No matter whether it is in time of wor of time of peace, a man ia safer if he belongs to the regular army than if he is a private sltizen," said Cor-t poral Abbott, recruiting officer here. In explaining his statement Corporal Abbott said: "During a general war private citizens are in constant danger from marauders and bands of lawless guerillas, and are often unprotected from sudden attacks by the enemy, while men in the regular army are protected in fortified positions and guarded by artillery." The corporal cited the case of the destruction of Louvain in the present European war as an instance of the unprotected condition of private citizens. Citizens in Danger. "In time of peace," Abbott said, "the private citizen is in constant danger on the streets, in factories, and fatal accidents are of daily occurrence in all out of large cities. The soldier in the barracks is not subject to thee dangers, but his time is spent in recreation and in healthful drills. People who think that being a soldier is a dangerous occupation are badly mistaken." Corporal Abbott also said that most people are mistaken in believing that men joined the army because they were out of work and could not . get other employment. He said, "A man is either born for the army or he is not born for the army. In the first case he will join the army no matter what his conditions are, but in the other case he will starve before he will join the army." The local office recruits an average of five or six men each month. Last month, however, twenty-six applications were received. REIO HOSPITAL (Continued from Page One.) laundry apparatus, the additional gift of Mr. D. G. Reid, for which Richmond people are deeply grateful as this was an absolute necessity for carrying out more economically the required sanitary conditions of the bedding, towels and table linen. The hospital can hardly realize how they managed without it. Besides this, the Ladies Aid society has been untiring in working for the upkeep of the equipment of the hospital, so as to add to its working efficiency, and has not allowed the kitchen nor the nursing to be hampered by scanty or imperfect materials required in the daily hospital work. This has been done by hard work and personal sacrifice on the part of the untiring body of women; lacking an adequate endowment this work must continue, and to make it possible for them to secure the necessary materials with which to work, the ladies call the attention of ever citizen in Richmond to TAG DAY, October 3rd, and request a liberal donation whenever possible, but in any case, they hope that everybody will give something for charity to help care for its poor and needy.

We all know some home remedy for our minor troubles, and by the use of these remedies many a doctor's bill is saved and doubtless many a life. How few know what to do when their eyes become tired and ache, or feel dry and inflamed from abuse and overuse? In the morning your eyes feel rough or sticky, or they trouble you when you read. What do you do? Most of us rush off and get glasses (perhaps at some cheap store where no skill is used in fitting our eyes), which we very often do not need at all. Thousands are wearing misfit or unnecesary glasses which they might better discard and other thousands can, with a little care, probably so strengthen their eyes that glasses might never be necessary. Here is a free receipts that may be relied upon to give comfort and to help the eyes of some people; it is harmless and has the enthusiastic endorsement of thousands who have used it: 5 grains Optona (1 tablet). 2 ounces Water. Use as an eye wash night and morning, or oftener if possible. It makes most eyes feel fine, quickly allays irritation, brightens the eyes and sharpens the vision. Many who have used it no longer feel the need of glasses; many other have ceased to fear that they will soon be obliged to wear them. Get the Optona tablets from A. G. Luken & Co., or any druggist can fill this prescription. (Advertisement.) LAST EXCURSION TO Cincinnati VIA c. & o. SUNDAY, OCTOBER 4 $1.10-Round Trip-$1.10 ALL THEATRES OPEN. BASEBALL CINCINNATI VS.

PRAISE REV. MOTLEY

New Castle Pastors Adopt . . , I .Resolutions. As a mark of the esteem in which the Rev. W. R. Motley, who recently came to Richmond to take charge of the Central Christian church is held by the Ministerial Association of New Castle, the following resolutions were passed by that body: "Resolved, That in his departure we lose an excellent and courageous member. "Resolved, That we recommend him to the confidence of like organizations everywhere." The Rev. Mr. Motley will live at the home of William Henderson, 2016 North E street, until he completes his arangements for moving his family from New Castle. Amusements "Mrs. Wlggs of the Cabbage Patch."! Written by a woman and dramatized ' by a woman, "Mrs. Wiggs of the Cab- j bage Patch," which comes to the Gennett Saturday matinee and night, utterly disproves the popular fallacy that women have no sense of humor. The play is thoroughly satisfying, funny in every sense of the word, and the clever lines of the book are heightened to a great degree by the little inimit able touches that only the most clever j actors can give and that must be seen ' been more obviously a character study with the plot woven about it than this of "Mrs. Wiggs," but it is surprising how smoothly it leads from one phase to another, and how interesting even the most commonplace incidents become with Mrs. Alice Hegan Rice's halo of appreciable understanding shedding its light upon them. The humor is of the best and highest as is drawn soley from the little incidents of every life than can amuse us so infinitely if we do not let ourselves "get soured", as Mrs. Wiggs expresses it. Fifty years ago, Stephen D. Brown of Hampden Highlands and Joseph Brown of a summer resident aS. Sunset, Me., were down the 4uy for a fishing trip that has iemained a pleasant spot in their memory eve since. This year, on tlK fiftieth anniversary of that trip, the brothers repeated it. ans
