GREEKS WISE THEIR
FLAG OVER THE 11111
HAVE BEEN UNDER COMMAND OF
THE ELLIES FOR A YEAR TO HF
ACTIVE AGAINST GF RU IN YES
SELS
ATHENS. September IS.— The Greek
flag has been raised over the Greek
navy, Greek officers and crews are
aboard, and the navy has resumed sts
independent status after a year of
merger with the Entente fleets This
applies to the twenty-two warships
of the light squadron, consisting of
destroyers, gunboats and light cruis
ers, and also to the battleships chief
of which are the Lemnos and Kil
kish, formerly the American battle
ships Idaho and Mississippi.
This change back to Greek control
b one of the results of the recent
Balkan conference at Paris, when the
allied military and naval activities
were confined to the Salonikf region,
while the new Venizelos regime was
strengthened by entrusting to it the
piilitary and naval control or lower
Greece. The Entente troops were
rapidly withdrawn from all the south
ern sections, and at the same time the
Entente crews turned over the war
ships to their Greek commanders.
It was last October that ex-King
Constantine’s military and naval ac
jtivities were considered by the En
tente allies as such a menace in tho
rear of their Salonika expedition that
allied control should be applied. On
the light squadron there was a change ■
of flag sand crews, and the ships
went to Saloniki where they joined the
allied squadron. The battleship Lem- 1
nos andKilkish remained at the arsenal
near her, but had some of the vital
parts removed so as to render them
incapable of doing any damage by the
government in their control
A crowd of several thousand Greek
officers and their partizans gathered
in front of the American Legation at
the time, trying to have the American
minister intervene, which he sternly
I refused to do as being a matter en
i tirely outside his functions. The Amer
ican authorities are satisfied this de
monstration was planned by the then
xisting government for political ef
fect, to create the impression that
'American sympathy was against the

hands there is prospect that the lignt
squadron may play a considerable

PHARMACISTS WILL BE
\DMITTED AS SERGEANTS.
ATLANTA, GA., Sept. 19.—The
pharmacists of the United States will
no doubt be much pleased to know
that the United States army, which
has heretofore required all pharma
cists to enter the medical service as
privates regarless of their attainments,
has made a regulation which permits
the graduates in pharmacy to enter
the service as sergeants with the op-'
portunity in a short while to become
' sergeants first class. The position of >
sergeant pays $45 to $55 a month with;
allowances at from $25 to S3O, this
I will be $75 at first, and 20 per cent
additional on foreign service, which
will make it S9O. There are now
two grades above sergeant class. This
was secured in the recent prepared
ness bill.
I These grades are hospital sergeant
and master hospital sergeant. Com
missions have not yet been given phar- 1
Imacists, although a bill to provide for
this is now before congress. There
is a very great demand for graduate
1 pharmacists on account of of the great
number who have gone into the army.
i The usual excellent demand has been
I so increased that it is difficult for the
drug stores to secure the men they
need. The medical department has
just established a sanitary corps, with
commissioned officers reaching as high
l as major. Pharmacists and medical
men as well as others who are cap-
1 able are eligible.
i The pharmacists are now working
f, secure furloughs for those young
j men who are attending colleges of
. I pharmacy as it is already difficult to
secur enough licensed pharmacists
’tc comply with the state registration
I laws and as it will soon become even
! more difficult it will be a most wanton
I j waste to take such men as privates
I ; when they can soon fill such impor
|[tant ar.-i much needed positions.

RUSSIAN PAINTINGS OF
WAR ARE ON EXHIBITION
LONDON, September 19.—An exhibi
tion of paintings by the Russian battle
artist, Vasali Verestchagin, called in
Russian the "apostle of peace,” is to be
ore of the features of the winter sea
son in London art cirles. Arerestcha
gin, after fighting with the Russian
armies in three short but bitter minor
wars, wah killed in the explosion that
destroyed the Qjssian flagship Petr
pavolosck uotside Port Arthur in 1904.
His paintings are described as ‘‘once a
grisly revelation and vehement pro
test.”
, His most famous canvas is entitled
"Apotheosis of War.” It depicts a
huge pyramid of skulls crowned with
la flock of carrion crows, and bears
the sinister inscription. "To all con
querors, past, present and to come.”
| On the occasion of an exhibition of
his work in Berlin some years ago the
German Emperor would not allow the
Prussian Guard to visit it, “lest they
should come to regard war as not hon
orable but disgustng.”
A r erestchagin once wrote: “I want
my paintings to be horrible. The peo
ple must know what w r ar really is.”
CHINESE SEALS ARE
MOST MYSTERIOUSLY MISSING
PEKING, September 19. —Peking has
been much agitated over the disappear
ance of the official seals. When Presi
dent Li Yuan-hung was forced to give
up the presidency, General Ting
Kwan of the presidential seals, took
them to Shanghai. Another prominent
officials disappeared with the seals of
the House of Representatives.
I When the attempt at monarchial re
storation had been defeated, and Pred
mier Tuan Chi-jui declared the re
publich had been restored, there was
much consternation because of the dis
appearance of the seals of the republic.
General Ting Kwan was arrested in
Shanghai, and after hard legal strug
gle was brought back to Peking, to
' ether with the missing presidential
seals, and is to have a hearing before
a Chinese court.

A NEBVWS WRECK
From Three Years’ Suffering. Says
Cardui Made Her Well.
Texas City, Tex.—in an interesting
statement, Mrs. G. H. Schill, of this town,
says: “For three years I suffered untold
agony with my head. I was unable to
do any of my work.
I just wanted to sleep all the time, for
that was the only ease I could get, when
1 was asleep. 1 became a nervous wreck
just from the awful suffering with my
head.
I was so nervous that the least noise
would make me jump out of my bed. 1
had no energy, and was unable to do
anything. My son, a young boy, had to
do all my household duties.
I was not able to do anything until 1
i took Cardui. 1 took three bottles in all,
j and it surely cured me of those awful
; headaches. That hes been three years
I ago, and 1 know the cure is permanent, 1
j for 1 have never had any headache since j
i taking Cardui. ..
Nothing relieved me until I took Cardui. i
It did wonders for me.”
Try Cardui for your troubles—made
from medicinal ingredients recommended
in medical books as being of benefit in
female troubles, and 40 years of use has
proventhat the books are right. Begin
taking Cardui today. NC-134

| or Endowment Policy.
A Bond issued without medical examination giving the invertor an
; income for his declining years.

i death results from ACCIDENT. This policy also embodies the follow
ing advantages, if the personwhose life is insured becomes totally
and permanently disabled.
1. Thereafter the Equitable will carry the insurance—The Insured
will have nothing further to pay.
2. The Equitable will pay the Insured an annual income for life
equal to one-tenth of the face of the policy.
3. Upon the death of the Insured the full amount of the insurance
will be paid to the Beneficiary (or double the amount if death is due to
accident) without deduction on account of the income paid to the Insur- |
ed while living. (See the policy for conditions and uetails.)
If you are contemplating taking life insurance, it will be to your
interest to see what the EQUITABLE LIFE has to offer before taking
your insurance.
