DR. MISENER HAS NOT BEEN GALLED

To the Public: Because of misunderstanding and great many telephone calls of Inquiry, services to the Medical Reserve CorPS, a commission has not been Government that such commission will be Issued In due time. As near as good judges can tell it will be about three months thereafter before I will be ordered to active duty. The situation Is like this: They have now two thousand doctors more than they really need for the present quota. If 1,500.000 men go in the next quota it will take seven doctors to the 1,000 men, which means 10,500 doctors for 1,500,000 men. There are at present 5,000 doctors with commissions issued; waiting to be ordered Into the training camps. With 2,000 excess at present and 5,000 waiting it will only take 3,500 commissions to finish out the next 1.500,000 men. I expect I will be one of the 3,500. This looks good for the loyalty of the United States doctors. I have been ordered to continue my work as formerly, until such time as they need me and they will give me fifteen days notice. DR. WALTER MISENER. "THE PROVIDENCE Continued From Page One. age. In his search for German plots he placed men in the Teutonic offices listed above. Even now he cannot j publish how this was done, though he i can and will tell the men's names ! that did this dangerous work. Of these, one secured employment as a secretary to Von Bernstorff in the Embassy in Washington. Enters now Dr. Heinrich Albert, fresh from Germany, with a letter of credit for $4,000,000 in his pocket and the assurance of his Government that he may have forty millions altogether to buy public opinion here, to purchase the votes of Congressmen, to procure the murder of American citizenj working in munition plants, and ! to do other "friendly" acts toward our neutral Government and its unsuspecting people. Dr. Albert landed in New York and registered at the Ritz-Carl-ton Hotel. He wrote at once to Ambassador Bernstorff, announcing his arrival and asking for instructions. The Ambassador happened to be taking an outing in the Adlrondacks when Dr. Albert's letter reached the Embassy. The letter was delivered on Saturday afternoon and the mail clerks at the Embassy were habitually J granted a vacation from Saturday noon to nine o'clock Monday morning. The Embassy secretaries, however, often stayed at their desks on Saturday afternoon; and so it happened that Mr. Rathom's man there got the letter, along with others, and; without apparently disturbing the envelope, read the contents. Without a moment's hesitation he took the next traln to New -York and telegraphed Mr. Rathom. He was met in New York by another reporter from the ! Providence Journal. Next morning this other reporter, ir Sunday top hat and frock coat appeared at the RitzCarlton and asked for Dr. Albert. He was shown up to the doctor's suite and tnere presented to Dr. Albert his own letter .to Von Bernstorff, and said the Ambassador had sent him to discuss the situation with him. But first he must be assured that he was really addressing Dr. Albert, and not some possible untrustworthv underling. Dr. Albert produced credentials of his identity, and even called In members of his suite to prove that he was ' himself forgetting, ir. the heat of his earnestness, to demand a similar guar- j anty trom bis caller. That would hardly have seemed necessary even if he had reflected, for there was his own letter, brought to him from Washington. Having satisfied his visitor, Dr. Albert went at length into his mission the precise purposes of it, the money he had in hand and in prospect all e details. His caller congratulated him, bade him good-day, and left; and Immediately restored the letter to his brother reporter, who took the afternoon train back to Washington, resealed the letter, and replaced it in the Embassy mail that night. On Monday, one of the mail clerks To Live Long! A recipe given by ft famous physician for long life was: "Keep the kidneys in good order! Try to eliminate thru the skin and intestines the poisons that otherwise clog the kidneys. Avoid eating meat as much as possible; avoid too much salt, alcohol, tea. Try a milk and vegetable diet. Drink plenty of water, and exercise so you 6weat the skin helps to eliminate the toxic poisons and uric acid." For those past middle life, for those easily recognized symptoms of inflammation, as backache, scalding "water," or if uric acid in the blood has caused rheumatism, "rusty" joints, stiffness, get Anuric (double strength) at the drug store. This is a wonderful eliminator of uric acid and was discovered by Dr. Pierce of Invalids' Hotel, Buffalo, N. Y. If your druggist does not keep it send 10 cents to Dr. Pierce for trial package and you will find that it is manjr times more potent than lithia and that it dissolves uric acid as hot water does sugar.

at the Embassy opened the letter and laid it, as a matter of routine, on the Ambassador's desk. Bernstorff appeared on Tuesday, and as soon as he read it he telephoned Dr. Albert to come to Washington. The : two men met the following morning at the Embassy and embraced in the presence of the Journal reporter. And the first words Dr. Albert spoke were to praise bis Excellency upon his choice of "so discreet and admirable an agent," as he had sent to him in New York. Then there was a scene. Bernstorff denied sending any messenger, and Albert reaffirmed it. The mall clerk was called in, and declared he had slit the envelope with his own hand. Albert repeated that he had had that very letter, physically, back in his hand,' from the messenger, on Sunday. Results: Two badly perturbed agents of the Kaiser, and the ultimate exposure of Dr. Albert in the Providence Journal. How Von Pa pen Was Caught. Another episode among Mr. Rathom's many adventures into the intracacies of German intrigue is known in the Journal office as "The Case of the Two Hearts." He had caught the trail of Von Papen when this happened. Von Papen, in the course of his duties here, had accumulated a large mass of letters, receipts, reports ot plots to blow up munition plants and American ships, and other documents that would be as useful to the United States and England as to Berlin. (We were still neutral and the Kaiser still addressed the President in "friendly" messages). As they often did, the Germans used the Austrian diplomatic channels to get this treacherous correspondence to Berlin. Hence Von Papen was packing his documents in a box in the office of the Austrian Consulate-General in New York for shipment on the Oscar II. The stenographer in the office had been on the job only a few months. Before that she

had never done anything more exciting than to take dictation in the office of the Journal, though, of course, that was not mentioned when she applied for the place. She knew what was going Into the box and had reported it, and she had instructions to mark the case so that it could be identified later. The day it was nailed up for shipment she ate her luncheon seated on the top of It. When she was in the midst of her meal, Von Papen came in. He asked if he might share her sandwiches. She consented. They sat on the box together. He grew sentiment al. She did not discourage his poet ical mood. At its height she took a red crayon pencil from her hair and in a dreamy way drew, on the packing box, the outline of two hearts en twined. The susceptible Von Papen, In the spirit of the moment, seized the pencil and with his own hand drew an arrow piercing them. And so it was that when the British secret serv ice agents inspected the cargo of the Oscar U. when it touched Falmouth, they took particular pains to look for the box marked with two read hearts and an arrow and found it. And ulti mately the Providence Journal published 6uch full and intimate details of the sentimental Von Papen's career in America that he was invited to leave the country, Episode number three, and the last to be told here Mr. Rathom, in his articles, will tell others more important illustrates not only one of the many methods used to gather evidence but also the cheering fact that some German-Americans are Just Americans and of the most loyal kind at that. Mr i Rathom discovered that the offices of a great German steamship company in New York were in reality a branch of the German Government and a hotbed of German intrigue, and he de termined to get access to their records. One of his reporters was little more than a boy, the son of German parents. They were good Americans, though, and the boy himself was an ardent patriot. Under Instructions he went back from Providence to his birthplace at Lima, Ohio, and there he wrote a letter to the general manager of the steamship line in New York. He had a brother, so he wrote, who was a telesranh ODerator in Providence and acquainted with one of the telegraph operators on the Providence Journal. Through this channel he learned that the Providence Journal planned to install one of its men in the office of this German teamship company in the guise of a Janitor so A POPULAR STYLE 2253 One-Piece Dress for Juniors.

Eighty-four young men have signed the muster roll of the new state militia company organized here. The number, it Is expected, will be Increased to 150 men. that he might, in the course ot his duties, become familiar with the location of their secret files and take from them- such of their contents as were of Interest to the Journal. About a month later a man did apply to the orncers of the company In New York for a job as janitor. The Prussian officials were ready for him. They had detailed the chief of their secret service to apply the third degree. This he did, and under the - machine gun fire of his questions the applicant stammered, hesitated, trembled, and finally confessed. For two days there after the officers of the steamship company were jubilant and they wrote an elaborate report of the triumph over the hated Providence Journal to the Embassy in Washington, a copy of which is now in Mr. Rathom's pos session. Some weeks later came another letter from the young man with a German name at Lima, Ohio. He wrote rather plaintively that he had not heard from the steamship company and so felt, of course, that the information he had sent had been value less. Nevertheless, so he wrote, he had done his best. He was coming on to New York to seek his fortune, and while finding his way about, might he not have a clerical position that would support him for a few months? He was assured that he could have the job by telegraph. "The young man from Lima" went through the files in the offices in New York at his leisure and supplied the Providence Journal with the material which fastened on the officers of this line and its secret service agents the guilt of the plot to blow up the Welland Canal, gave to the Journal an immense mass of valuable information concerning the methods of securing fraudulent passports for German and Austrian reservists, and also secured for his newspaper proofs of the criminal activities of Captain Hans Tauscher, the agent of the Krupps in this country and the husband of Madame Gadski. So much for some of the means by which the German Government's treachery has been unearthed during the last three years. But let no one deceive himself with the vain hope that the job is done. Today, in the offices of the Providence Journal, Is a card index of the names of seven thousand people, hundreds of tnem American citizens, dozens of them honored leaders in professional and public life, who are known still to be working the Kaiser's will in every important city in the United States. These traitors are, many of them, unsuspected by neighbors and friends who respect and trust them. The Government has been Informed of their activities. The Journal is still following their movements, and every days checkmates some of them. Thus, privately, the Journal is doing a great patriotic service. Publicly, it is attempting to arous the loyal citizens of the country to the common danger and to show them, from its experience how to combat this most deadly and indidious peril. Above all things, Mr. Rathom is an American. The things he has been

fighting for primarily are the safety of the United States and the things it stands for its democracy, its freedom of opportunity, its boundless rewards to energy and enterprise. But his work- has not been . mere phrase making. It has been practical work. He has seen more clearly than most men the terrible dangers that beset this country. These are twofold-Ger many's conscienceless, subtle, relent less campaign, waged in the dark for twenty-five years to hamstring de mocracy in America and ultimately to dominate the Western Hemisphere; and secondly, the internal danger which besets the United States be cause of its lack of a national con sciousness and of a unity of spirit and purpose. He has been successful in combating the first of these perils. The second is a task only just be gun. America has not yet demon strated that it is a nation and not, as a great foreign diplomat expressed it, "a bundle of sticks." Mr. Rathom s ambition is to do his part in making America a nation In feeling, and in understanding, and in action. Here again he has no hope in the power of phrase. Here again is a practical question to be solved by practical means. Those means are the publication of facts. By letting the American people understand, in terms of men and dates and places, the methods and the all-peryasive Influence of German thought upon this country to show how it has infected even the text books in our public schools and the habits of mind of our professional leaders, how it has unnerved the political effectiveness of our men in public life this is the task he has set himself.
