URGES WOMEN TO ENLIST FOR RED CROSS WORK Mrs. Hugh McGibeny, of Indianapolis, state inspector of Red Cross work in Richmond Wednesday, inspecting work at the Red Cross rooms, emphasized the fact that Richmond is in need of volunteers. The work has been simplified and a new standard set for all departments. New patterns will be sent to the Richmond association within the next few days. Mrs. McGibeny says surgical dress ings are in great demand and women are asked to spend at least one hour a day at the rooms. She was delighted with the headquarters and found each department in perfect condition. From now on the work will be confined to articles actually needed r broad. The recent shipment of articles from this city to Indianapolis was a splendid one and the inspector said much of the work was better than work done by Indianapolis women. Recently there has been an apathy in the work and recruits are needed at once. There are three large ware houses in Indiana, one in Indianapolis, one at Fort Wayne, and one in Evansville. LS HARD ARGO WASHINGTON, Oct. 3. Great Brit ain's new embargo on shipments of practically everything to Sweden, Norway, Denmark and The Netherlands is regarded here as a most important move in tightening the cordon which slowly but surely is killing the military power of Germany. Coming close on the export embargo of the United States, which is being administered to keep from the European neutrals- everything that might supply the central powers, Great Britain's action Is regarded as one of Whe most important of the war. As the British embargo excludes everything except printed matter, about tne only thing that will be permitted to go to the German people by way of the neutrals will be expressions of world opinion that they should recognize- their system of government to do aw-ay with the military autocracy. In a figurative sense, Great Britain holds one end of the rope and the United States the other. Gradually but surely aa it Is being drawn taut the military power of Germany is being strangled because the embargo cuts off the supplies she has been receiving through the adjacent neutrals. German inventors have brought out an automobile which travels on, three sets of movable runners instead of wheelB.

Acting on a recent ruling of the state board of accounts, the county

commissioners Wednesday voted a resolution allowing Sheriff Carr 20 cents a meal for the board of prisoners confined in the two county jails. This Is an Increase of 8 2-3 cents per meal. The board recently issued a state ment that it would not question any "good faith contract made by the sheriff with the county commissioners and with the approval of the county attorney for any sum more than thirteen and one-third cents per meal and not to exceed twenty cents per meal, when claim is" properly itemized and allowed by the board of commissioners," which is in fact an increase of six and two-third cents a meal for the sheriff for all prisoners fed by him. Under the present law which was passed in 1895 the sheriff receives but forty cents a day for boarding prisoners, thus allowing but thirteen and one-third cents for one meal In 1895 the necessities of life did not cost near as much as now. For example in 1895 beans were $2 a bushel. Now they are $12 a bushel. Butter then cost eight to ten cents a pound and now a housewife can't get a good whiff for that much. The state board of accounts calls the order by it a "war emergency" measure. The board states that accounts for prisoners calling for not more than twenty cents per meal will not be questioned during the present international crisis or until the legislature has an opportunity to amend the law. Commend Creu; of Sai7 Vessel Wiici Defeated U-Boat PARIS, Oct. 3.

Fruitola. is a pure fruit oil that acts as an intestinal lubricant, dlsentegrating the hardened particles that cause so much suffering and discharging the acumulated waste, to the sufferer's intense relief. One dose is usually sufficient to indicate its efficacy. Traxo is a tonic-alterative that is most effective to restore and rebuild the weakened, run-down system. A booklet of special interest to those who suffer with stomach trouble can be obtained by writing to the Pinus Laboratories, Monticello, Illinois.

AMERICAN TRAINING CAMPTN FRANCE, Oct. 3., (By the Associated Press.) American medical officers will devote the coming winter to a special study of the diseases peculiar to the war and war conditions In addition to their work at the forward casualty clearing stations on the French and British fronts. At the casualty stations they will get all the experience they desire in the marvellous war surgery which has made such rapid strides in the last three years. They will be trained In all the medical phases of their work In the field at special schools. The first of these schools will be established this month at the hospital taken over by the Johns Hopkins hospital unit soon after the first contingent of American troops landed in France. "Shell Shock" Troublesome. One subject to which much attention will be devoted will be that of "shell shock," which has proved very troublesome to both the British and French medical officers. Neralogists attached to the various American units will study the problem at French and British hospitals and afterwards will give lectures to their fellow medical officers both in the hospitals and attached to the troops In training. There is no more pitiful object In the world than a man acutely suffering from shell shock. Hypnotism has been used frequently as a cure for 6hell shock. It stops the trembling and twitching in most cases, but of late it has come to be regarded as not a real

cure. The British have found that sol diers suffering from shell shock who do not have hypnotic treatment invariably get back to duty quicker than those who do. Tells on Nervous System. Shell shock often causes deafness, dumbness and blindness the effect of the concussion from an exploding missile nearby. A man may be tossed about by three or four shells without getting hit by a fragment or a splinter, but the effect of this tossing always tells on his nervous system. Some of the worst shell shock cases have been those where soldiers were buried under the earth thrown up by huge projectiles. Such burial does not always affect the men that way. It is related that recently when an old Brit ish sergeant was dug out from under a ton or more of shell debris and asked if he was hurt, he replied: "No Bir, I guess not, but I am certainly strong for a separate peace." A remarkable thing about shell shock cases is that none occur during a big battle. The reason for this is perfectly plain. In battle the men are buoyed up by the great excitement, are pressing forward and often are engaged in hand to hand fightine. while all about them is the continual roar of battle.
