WAR HITS MISSIONARY WORK
Church Boards In America Hear -of
Demoralization In Europe and
Far East.
Rev. Dr. S. Karl Taylor, secretary
of the board of foreign missions of
the Methodist Episcopal church, said
that more than 250 Protestant clergy-
men have gone to the front with the
French armies, and that practically
all qf the German Methodist ministers
•ngaged in religious and missionary
work In south Germany are with the
German forces. The Methodist Theo-
logical school at Frankfort, Dr. Taylor
said, had been closed, as nearly all of
the students were called to the colors.
"Bishop Nuelson In charge of the
board's affairs in Europe, reports that
churches are distributed and families
and congregations broken up," Dr.
Taylor said. "Rev. Ernest W. Bywssne,
superintendent of the church in
"France, sailed irom New York on the
Minnehaha, hoping to reach parishes
in southeastern France which are said
to be in great distress."
Fear was expressed by officials of
the board here that If Turkey goes to
war missionary workers in Tunis and
Algeria will be in great peril.
Missionaries in India and eastern
"Asia, it Is said, are facing serious
problems growing out of financial and
trade disorders.
When orders for the mobilization of
Turkish troops were posted at Beirut,
the inhabitants fled to the mountains
by thousands to escape military serv-
ice, according to a letter received at
the offices of the Presbyterian board
of foreign missions at New York from
Dr. F. E. Hopkins, a missionary work-
er. Every bank in the city, he said,
was closed, and business was demor-
alized.
The Aeroplane.
The effect of the aeroplane in war-
fare is shown in the statement by the
official- press bureau regarding the
German army corps. Nearly all of
them, it says confidently, have been
definitely located. Presumably the
German alrtnen are equally aware of
the Franco-Belgian concentrations;
and so for the first time In history a
great war will be fought almost like
a game of chess, -where each player
knows the disposition of the adver-
sary's pieces no less than that of his
own. Generalship will not be abol-
ished by the change; there is general-
ship in chess, but It will be a great
deal modified. Going back to the last
great wars fought with civilized re-
sources, the Japanese won-their decis-
ive victory at Mukden by bringing up
an army of which the Russians were
unaware at a point where they were
not expecting one. Under today's con-
ditions of aeroplane scouting the bat-
tle could not have been won in the
way in which It was. Nor could the
battle of Kirk Kilisseh.
Nursery College.
Mrs. Bernard Mole of London came
over here recently to see how the land
lay for establishing a "nursery "Col-
lege" in America such as she founded
In England six years ago. There are
a number of these colleges In England,
whose graduates command at the start
$40 a month as a "nursery nurse' who
has had the advantage of caring for
real babies under the training of a
professional nurse, learning also to
make children's clothes, laundry work
and also attend lectures on first aid.
physiology and sex hygiene during the
six months' course.
Question of Identity.
She—Am I the' first girl you ever
kissed?
He—Why—er—1 don't know. Your
face Beems familiar.—Life.
Sorrow, Indeed 1
President Howard Elliott, pleading
%t a dinner in New York for fairer
public opinion toward the New Haven
lines, said:
"Public opinion, as It-has shown It-
self in the past—It's growing a little
kinder now—makes me think of the
farm girl.
"A young farm girl asked to have
Saturday off in order to go to see a
man hanged. Permission was given
her and she set out before daybreak,
having 20 miles to walk.
"When she returned that evening
she was in tears.
"'Why, Milly, what's the matter?'
said her mistress.
"Oh, dear!" sobbed the girl. "Oh,
dear! The man's been reprieved.'"

marked the fly as he alighted on a

Wireless Spanr. Ocean.
The wireless outfit of the steamship
Imperator comprises three separate
stations—one of 15 kilo watts,,for long
distance work; one of three kilowatts,
mainly for communications with ves-
sels at moderate distances, and an
emergency station, worked by a pow-
erful storage battery. The main sta-
tion can exchange signals directly
with the large land stations of Ameri-
ca or Europe during the whole of the
transatlantic voyage, so that the de-
lays Involved by relaying messages
from ship to ship are avoided. In mid-
ocean the ship is in communication
with both the German station at Nord-
delch and the American station at
Sayvllle. The emergency station, in-
tended for use In caBe of a stoppage
of the ship's dynamo Is capable of op-
erating for six hours.
Some men are so busy with their
hammers that they are unable to hear
the knock of opportunity.

Physicians Recommend Castoria
P* ASTORIA has met with pronounced favor on the part of physicians, pharma-
^ ceutical-societies and medical authorities. It is used by physicians with
results most gratifying. The extended use of Castoria is unquestionably the
result of three facts; «/■«*—'The indisputable evidence that it is harmless:
Second That it not only allays stomach pains and quiets the nerves, but assimi-
lates the food: Third—It is an agreeable and perfect substitute for Castor OiL
It is absolutely safe. It does not contain any Opium, Morphine, or other narcotic
and does not stupefy. It is unlike Soothing Syrups, Bateman's Drops,.Godfrey's
Cordial, etc. This is a good deal for a Medical Journal to say. Our duty, how-
ever, is to expose danger and record the means of advancing health. The day
for poisoning innocent children through greed or ignorance ought to end. To
our knowledge, Castoria is a remedy which produces composure and health, by
regulating tie system—not by stupefying it—and our readers are entitled to
the information.—HaZl's Journal of Health.

Dr. B. Halstead Scott, of Chicago, Ills., says: "I have prescribed your
Castoria often for Infants during my practice, and find ,it very satisfactory."
Dr. William Belmont, of Cleveland, Ohio, says: "Your Castoria stands .**-
first la its class. In my thirty years of practice i can say i never have
found anything that so filled the place."
Dr. J. H. Taft, of Brooklyn, N. Y., says: "I have used your Castoria and ■
found It an excellent remedy In my household and private practice for
many years. The formula is excellent."
Dr. R. J. Hamlen, of Detroit, Mich., says: "I prescribe your Castoria
extensively, as I have never found anything to equal it for children's *
troubles. I am aware that there are imitations in the fl&d, but I always
Bee that my patients get Fletcher's." .. ..' J
Dr.Wa J McCrann, of Omaha, Neb., says: "As the father of thirteen
children I certainly know something about your great medicine, and aside; t. : ,
from my own family experience I have in my years of practice found Cash :.rj.
torla a popular and efficient remedy In almost every home/' - ,/y
Dr. J. R. Clausen, of Philadelphia, Pa., says: "The name that your Ca «> . ;
torla has made for itself In the tens of thousands^ of homes blessed by'the
presence of children, scarcely needs to be supplemented by the endorse*
ment of the medical profession, but I, for one, most heartily endorse it and
believe it an excellent remedy."
Dr. R. M. Ward, of Kansas City, Mo., says: "Physicians generally do not
prescribe proprietary preparations, but in the case of Castoria my experi-
ence, like that of many other physicians, has taught me to make an ex-
ception. I prescribe your Castoria In my practice because I have found It;
to be a thoroughly reliable remedy for children's complaints. Any physi-
cian who has raised a family, as I have, will join me In heartiest recom-
mendation of Castoria."

"Under the circumstances I must

"Must you? Then under the cir-
