10,000, the number hpacified in the
announct inent of Premier Borden two
week« ago
The ready response to the call for
volunteer* and speedy delivery of
equipment have enabled the (iovern-
rnent to increase the .second force.
The Royal Canadian Regiment,
1,000 strong, now garrisoning in Ber
muda, w 111 be one of the units to go
with the second contingent, and Ber
muda will bo guarded by less expe
rienced men. Many men who have
been doing guard duty on bridges,
magazines and wireless stations In
Canada since the beginning of the
war also will be given the chance of
active service,
ervants because they are bankrupt.
Noblemen may be seen slipping into
otip kitchens.
The factories are closed. Many
tores remain open, but have no busi-
,ess. The street cars are being op
rated, but the railway train service
as been abandoned. The supplies of
offee, tea, flour, rye and salt are
»ra<*t!cally exhausted.
Reports received by Minister Whit-
30 k from Louvain, Liege and Namur
ay that the conditions In those cities
re even worse than they are in Brus-
els. Louvain has only a four days’
upply of flour, while Liege has no
lour at all. The peasants in many
istrict* have been forced to exist on
?gumes, as the crops of beets and
abbages have been ruined. The meat
nd milk supplies have also been cut
*ff, the army having taken the cattle.

In the small villages between Ant-

structed sheds or tents.
The situation In the line between
Nieuport and I)lxmud»* has. from the
Allies’ point of view, undergone a
very decided change for the better.
For several days the Belgian army,
supported by a French force, has been
holding In check two entire German
army corps, and their success In re
pulsing repeated attacks of the ene
my and making one gallant counter
attack is one of the most valuable
achievements which they have ren
dered the Allies,

The most critical stage of the bat
tle has been passed. This does not,
however, mean that the enemy Is on
the run or is even preparing for re
treat. Much water will flow from tue
Yser into the North Sea before tlie
Germans definitely abandon their de
signs upon Dunkirk anti the northern
coast.
Reports of a German retreat to
ward Bruges have been anticipatory
and exaggerated. The retreat up lo
the present Is at most a mutter of a
mile or two. It was made only in
deference to the gunfire of British 1
monitors and submarines. The Ger- I
mans suffered heavy losses when th“j
mins were turned upon them from
this unexpected quarter, but they are
now intrenched a little over a mile in- |
land, anti consequently are able to
pay less attention to sea attacks.
Ostend is held by about 5,000 Ger

By the COUNTESS OF WARWICK.
LONDON, Oct. -5.—If you ask me to set down a description of
woman’s work in war time, to express it as concisely as I can, I
should say it lies in suffering, in service and in hope. Do not let
us underestimate any one of these, for, while woman’s service
helps the living her suffering and her altruism will avail in count
less thousands of cases to mold the character of the unborn.
I claim to be a patriot. My eldest son, together with many
reiativeH and dear friend* are at tho r . . ■ "
front, but I can not in these hours
take any detached view*. My thoughts
go with equal sympathy to the ardent
manhood of all the nations now sac

to initiate.
I realise that suffering has no na
tionality. and that tho maids and
mother* of more than half Kurope
know pain worse ihun shell and bul
let can inflict. Let us hope that in
years to come their memory of these
hours, the experiences that sear the
troops and conversed with several of heart, will help them to warn another
the men. Wehn he asked one soldier | generation that war is not an affair
what he thought of the enemy, the
man replied: ‘I am too busy lighting;
it is impossible to think.’ Thereupon
the Kaiser laughed and the soldiers

had seen. I quote from my notes:
Act as Executioners.
“We drove the Germans out of
three lines of trenches. From the
prisoners we learned that seven com
panies who were surprised by us and
enfiladed lost 340 killed and wounded.
A thing occurred in this fight which
would make your flesh creep. We
acted as executioners for the Ger
mans. We surprised a German out
post on a hillock with a camp be
hind it.
“Prussian discipline is severer
than ours. With us many men. con
victed by court-martial of offenses,
get off with a chance to distinguish
themselves by some dangerous ex
men. These poured a volley into the
enemy. The first man to fall was the
condemned soldier.
“The Germans, who numbered
about two companies, put up a fight,
and then ran away or surrendered.
They left their wounded and with
them the condemned soldier. This
soldier had a bullet through tho
thigh, and was insensible from loss
of blood. He was carried off by bear
ers who knew nothing of the firing
party, and was attended by a sur
geon.
“After the surgeon had stopped the
bleeding from the leg he said, ‘This
man has an old wound on his face;
it’s queerly bandaged.' He took the
blindfolding bandage from the Ger
man’s face and saw there was no
wound.
“The German did not tell us what
he was shot for. He died.”

Servants Out of Work Are
Problem for Philanthropy
There must be tens of thousands o*
women In Great Britain alone who
work for themselves, having nobody
to work for them. They do not re
ceive men’s wages, and their means
of saving are few. In times of stress
their sufferings are deep, but they
have no medium for reaching the pub
lic ears, and they would shrink from
the publicity of individual appeals. To
them, like so many others, war can
bring only suffering. Queen Mary's
fund has received, at time of writing,
nearly $850,000 in subscriptions.
The Duchess of Marlborough has
Interested herself In the Woman s
Emergency Corps, which lias already
received more than ten thousand of
fers of service, and is treasurer of one
branch. It exists to register women
voluntary workers and to see that
their efforts do not overlap and do
not interfere with the paid labor mar
ket.
Some members of the Emergency
Corps will take up the work of men
on service and will remit the pay to
their families; others who are lin
guists devote themselves to the serv
ice of refugees, or teach cooking to
military recruits, or train girls in j
sick nursing, hygiene and cookery. j
The National Union of Women’s
Suffrage Societies is devoting itself to j
the service of distress; so, too, are the
London Society for Women’s Suffrage
and the Woman’s Suffrage National ,
Aid Corps It is to the lasting credit j
of the. nation that all controversies j
have been laid aside, and even irili j
tant suffrage is content to limit the
lighting fires to grates in which they I
may warm the poor.
The Duchess of Marlborough, to
whose hard work I would like to pay
tribute, together with some other la- I
dies, is forming a committee to assist I
destitute domestic servants. Owing |
to the war countless establishments
have suffered reduction, and the call
for economy will terd to increase j
rather than to diminish. It is hoped
to organize a careful inquiry into ex
Isting conditions, to train some of the j
most promising girls as nurses and to
give to others such relief as may be j
found possible. The suggestion of |
training domestic servants as nurses
has not been well received in hos
pital circles.

BARIS, Oct. 31.—Three German

the Allies’ lines toward Parle.
They were prevented from reaching
the region of tho capital, however, j
through the vigilance of the aeria’
guard.
Frenchmen Shot for
Signaling Germans
PARIS. Get 29. The Eclair says
thut three young Frenchmen, caught
in the night near Kheims signaling
to tlie Germans with rockets the po
sition of the French guns, were shot
.it i i* ad rice wher* they were left
for twenty-four hums
Breathe Freely! Clears Stuffed-up,
Inflamed Nose and Head and
Stops Catarrhal Discharge;
Cures Dull Headache.
Try "Ely’s Cream Balm."
Get a small bottle anyway, just to
try It-*—Apply a little in the nostrils
and instantly your clogged nose anu
stopped-up air pasasges of the head
will open: you will breathe freely;
dullness and headache disappear. By
morning’, the catarrh, rold-in-head or
catarrhal sore throat will be gone.
End such misery now! Gel the
small bottle of "Ely * C ream Balm”
at any drug store. This sweet, fra
grant balm dissolves by the heat of j
the nostrils: penetrates and heals the j
Inflamed, swollen membrane which!
lines the nose, head and throat; clears j
the air passages; stops nasty dir*- I
charges and a feeling of cleansing !
soothing relief comes immediately.
Don’t lie awake to-night strug- j
gling for breath, with head stuffed, j
nostrils closed, hawking and blowing
Catarrh or a cold, with its running
nose, foul mucus dropping into the
throat, and raw dryness is distressing ,
but truly needless.
Put your faith—Just once—In *
“Ely’s Cream Balm” and vour cold 1
or catarrh will surely disappear.—Ad- 1
vertuement. 1
