Montfaucon. i
A town of northern France, 13 I
miles notheast ts Verdun, half way <
between the valley# of the Meuse and 1
Aire, 23 miles fitorq the Belgian bor- ‘
der and but a few miles east of the
Argonne forest. It* was here that the
body of Admiral Colligny, “the nob- J
Jest victim” of tha massacre of St. 1
Bartholomew,- wa« hung up by the <
heels on the gibbet. The body was se- •
cretely taken from here to Chantilly
and buried in the parish church with
out the head, which was conveyed |s I
Catherine de Medici. The admiral had
incurred the wrath of Catherine by 1
endeavoring tc draw the king, Char
les IX, into a-.wax with Spam. Her ’
attempt to have? him assassinated in- ’
furiated the Hugtrfeots and Gather- 1
Ine conceived the idea of killing their 1
leaders and ruining the Protestant '
party.
Clermont-de V Ooise.
A town of northern France, with
about 7,000 population, 18 miles from
Compieyne, on the Breche, a tributary
of the Oisfe Its ancient castle is now
used as a prison for women. In the
Middle Age», es the legend goes, two
Irish girls," Maura and Bridget, suffer
ed r-artyuom nearby, and were buried
in the cemetery of Nogent, in Cler
mont. Toward the end of the 12th
century, a peasant lost a block cow
that passed the night lying on the
tomb of the virgins. When the cow
was fo'ind, onr side had turned white.
Sometime later the cow again slept
on the tomb and its other side was
turned white.
The fame of the miracle spread
through sll France and thousands of
people came to see the cow and be
cured. Nogent became henceforth
NogenL-lnsVierges and the relics of
the two virgin-saints were placed in
a shrine within the church where they
.nay be seen to this day.
Razeilles.
A village of northern France about
three mites southeast of the battle
field of Sedan Near the beginning of
the village is a small tavern, whose
name recalls the fact that this was
the last French position in the village,
desperately defended before the re
tirement to Sedan, where 83,000 men,
10,000 horses. 4,000 cannon and an
enormous quantity of stores fell into
the hands of the Germans:
The inn, the only house in the vil
lage not burned, now contains a mu
seum of relics of the battle, and one
room is still preserved in the same
state as is depicted in deNeuville’s
painting of “The Last Cartridge,” the
scene of which is laid in the house.
The cemetery nearby contains the
bones of 2,085 French and German
soldiers removed from their tempo
rary graves on the battlefield.
Crecy-en-Ponthieu.
A town of northern France, 13
miles north of Abbeyville, famous for
the victory of Edward 111 of England
over Philip, King of France, in 1346.
The English forces were estimated at
25,000, while the French army was
about 100,000." The first division of
the formdr army was commanded by
the Prince of Wales, and during the
fighting he was hard pressed. A
message was sent to Enward 111, ask
ing for help. “Is my son hurt, or
dead, or on the earth felted?” asked
the king. “No, sire, but he has need
of your aid,” was the reply. “Tell
them that sent you,” replied Edward,
‘that they send no mom to me for any
adventure that falleth, as long as my
son is alive, and also that they suffer
him this day to win his spurs.” The
French finally gave way and fled. A
tradition, probably erroneous, says

St. Kiquier.
A town of northern France 32 miles
northwest of Amiens, whose women,
in 1536, aided valorously in repuls
ing a determined attack by the troops
of Charles V. One heroine, named
Becquetcille. is eaid to have capeured
a hostile flag with her own hands.
The town never recovered from its
frequent destruction by the Normans,

St. Riquier was famous in its early

625.
Trent. •
The capital of the Italian speaking
portion of the Austrian province of
Ty*ol, ten miles from the Italian bor
der, at the junction of the Adige and
Fersina rivers. Its embattled wails
and tower? fill the whole breadth of
the valley. Its inhabitants, about 27,-
060 in number, including a garrison
of over 2,C00, speak Italian only. The
city lives rather on its historical sou
venirs than on its industries. In
774, Trent became a part of Italy, but
was transferred to Germany in 1027.
It passed to Austria in 1803 and was
formally annexed in 1814.
Trieste
. The principal seaport of Austria
on the Gulf of Venice, 367 miles south
west of Vienna by rail. It may be
said nearly to monopolize the trade of
the Adriatic, and has long eclipsed
its ancient rival, Venice, which lies
scarcely more than 70 miles across
the gulf. It had a population of 229,-
475 in 1910. Trieste was made the
center of a large emigration from
Austria to America by the inaugura
tion of a direct emigrant service to
New York in 1904. The town was cap
tured by Venice in 1203. The harbor
was blockaded by an Italian flej't
from May until August, 1848. At the
head of its industrial establishments
are two shipbuilding yards, the larg
est of-their kind in Austria, employ
ing mere than 5,000 workmen. It al
so has petroleum refineries,! iron
foundries and chemical, soap, silk
spinning and machine factories.

■La / Underwear
WKw | / Combines al! the protection of
■MI I / wool and all the comfort of cotton.
SHIP / Duofold is a double garment,
made of two fabrics which together weigh much less than
ordinary underwear. The outer fabric is warm, light
wool The inner lining is soft, thin cotton. No wool
touches the skin. The cotton lining absorbs the moist
ure of the body and protects the flesh from the irritating
wool. The woolen outer fabric repels the winter’s cold
and retains, the natural heat of the body.
The two fabrics are joined by wide stitching through
which the air circulates and keeps the garment fresh
and c ry.
Duofold keeps you warm, but it doesn’t scratch like
all-wool underwear, the cotton inner fabric is soft as a
rose.
And Duofold doesn’t pinch or shrink like all-wool
underwear.
We carry Duofold in Union and two piece suits in all
sizes.
