"Excellency: The measures which are being planned by your adminis tration to force the unemployed to work for the Invading power, the de portation of our unhappy comrades which has begun In the regiou of the etapes, move most -profoundly the en tire working class In Belgium. "The undersigned, mcinbers and rep resentatives of the great central so cialist and independent syndicates of Belgium, would consider that they had not fulfilled their duty did th.ey not ex press to you the painful sentiment which agitate the laborers and convey to you the echo of their touching com plaints. "They have seen the machinery taken from their factories, the most diverse kind of raw materials requisi tioned, the accumulation of obstacles to prevent tho resumption, of regular work, the disappearance one by one of every public liberty of which they were proud. "For more than two years the la boring class more than any other has been forced to undergo the most bit ter trials, experiencing misery and often hunger, while Its children far away fight aud die, and the parents of these children can never convey to them the affection with which their hearts are overflowing. Pathetic Appeal Disregarded. "Our laboring class has endured everything with (he utmost calm and the most Impressive dignity, repressing Its Bufferings, Its complaints and heavy, trials, sacrificing everything to its Ideal of liberty and Independence. But the measures which huve been an nounced will make the population drain the dregs, (of the cup) of human sor row; the proletariat, the poor upon whom unemployment has been forced, citizens of a modern state, are to be condemned to forced labor without having disobeyed any regulation or order. "In the name of the families" of workmen among which the most pain ful anxiety reigns at present, whose mothers, whose fiancees, aud whose little children are destined to shed so many more tears, we beg your exceb lency to prevent the accomplishment of this painful act, contrary to in ternational lnw, contrary to the dig nity of the working classes, contrary to everything which makes for worth and greatness In human untrue.

TEDDY (Copyright, IWI, tr th MuClur. Newspa per Syndicate.) When Mariana, In momenta of pa triotic fervor, thought of herself as braving the peril of the ocean and doing her bit In France, It was alwaya aa an ambulance driver, than aa a trained nurse or an office worker. The reason waa not far to seek. Mariana, ever since aha gave up riding side sad dle and equipped! herself for a cross addle, bad been quite taken with ber own appearance in breeches.

"oa can lead, can't your Dlx The very first day she met Dixon BBked her after dInner wnen had Jsmos ho hsd been fnrfim.it- .nnn?h cleared the floor for the little dance to pay ber a compliment of this kind. He bad ridden across the country with hpr brother and rearhed ihm Rnrdn ! house Just aa ahe waa mounting her J own borse for a country ride. So Dixon and the brother remounted their horses and started out again with Mariana. ."You know, I have never enjoyed riding with a girl before so much aa I have with you," he told her. "In fact you don't seem like a girl. You're more like some awfully nice kid brother." Mariana had treasured that compli ment. It was worth more than a dozen of the usual sort and ever since that day Mariana had grown more nnd more addicted to the boyish costume and more and tuoro rebellious against skirts. She. had never been convinced one way or the oilier on the suffrage question, but when she learned that some of the early suffragists had re belled against skirts, she bad declared herself a decided suffragist and rode with ber fair hair streaming, In a coat of steel mail, to represent Joan of Arc at the next suffrage procession. Then she bought a pair of housework overalls and went about her own bed room and little sitting room mornings dusting and putting things to rights in Unit costume. Uer mother positively forbade her going out of her domain in the costume. Of course all her negligees were cut on pajama lines and. Inconsistent as was it with her suffrage conventions, she fancied that she would like to be a Turkish woman because of the bloomers. "I con do almost anything," she told her chum one day, "it I am not ham pered with petticoats. I'm sure if I ever make a name for myself it will be In breeches riding breeches or housework overalls, or something of that sort." Then came the war and illustrated newspaper supplements were flooded with pictures of dairy girls in breeches, factory girls In overalls and street car conductors In suits like the soldier's uniform. Mariana felt devoutly thank ful that she had lived In an age when she might wear trousers and not be hooted like poor Amelia Bloomer and those other worthy pioneers In petti coat emancipation. The question was, Just which line of emancipated occu pation should she pursue. First she decided to be an ambulance driver, but the Idea struck every one as absurd. Particularly did Dlxon James plead with her to abandon this project "In the first place, they wouldn't have you," he told her. "You're only eighteen and you are too darned pretty. What d8 you know about mix ing up with a lot of rowdy soldiers? They won't want girls like you they want some big husky nmazons that can give a hand to lifting stretchers and one that has nerves like iron. You say you couldn't stand being a nurse. Why, my dear child, you'd have to go through more horrors as an ambulance driver." Finally she was dissuaded. But eventually her mind was made up. She read In some not distant city an appeal for street car conductors the kind that wore leggings and knee length coats and bloomers and not the petticoat sort she announced firm ly that she considered it her duty to give her services as a conductor. She was gqjjig to release some man for service, she announced. Arguing against her was in vain, and after sev eral family councils of war, It was de cided to let her go her own sweet way. "It would usually be a family dis grace," her mother said to Dlxon James one day, for of late Dlxon was usually to be found somewhere about the Burden summer place. "It really would be a scandal to have one's daughter be a street car conductor In this connection, the review points out that "tho enemy Is seeking a decision that will end the war, and the outcome of the present operation depends upon man power." The statement mentions the attack on American positions at Slecheprey, northwest of Tout Here on April 20, the review says, the Germans swept over American lines on a front of three kilometers, but subsequently gave up the ground occupied. CLEVELAND, O.. " April 29. Ex President WHUara H. Tart, speaking as a representative of the League to aaually, but nowadays girls are doing auch odd things. Perhaps that Is no worse than being an elevator girl, and one of tha Van Dyckman girls per fectly splendid family, you know has Just gone In for that" However, Dixon James was not quite ao resigned aa waa Mariana' mother. Mariana went ahead with, her plans, and having applied for the position as conductor, resignedly waited the three week that were to elapse before her service would be needed. To make the time pass more pleasantly, Dixon got bis mother to get up a house party at their country place, and Mariana packed her little trunk and rehearsed the new dance steps with considerable enthusiasm. There was to be a little dance tha first night of the party and Mariana was laying out her newest dancing frock and other accessories on her bed before dinner, when Dlx'a mother an old-fashioned little gray-haired lady with a twinkle In her brown ryes knocked at her door. "Mariana, dear," she said, "I am asking you a favor that I don't think you'll mind granting. First did yon bring any riding togs?" "Oh, ye, Indeed I brought two sets Dlx said there would be some riding. I'd love to let someone have either outfit" "That la aweet of you, dear," aatd the older woman, "but that Isn't the favor. Ton see. we are two men any. and Mariana admitted that ahe could. "If awfully decent of you. IH Intro- nc 7" to the glrla you don't know, Wel1 7" Teddy to make It seem ' tmrnrnl H Mariana had not at first realized that she was to play the role of Teddy for the entire bouse party, but she was, and so ber dressing simplified Itself to simply changing from one rid ing suit for day wear to the other for I evening. In the meantime she danced only with girls and rode beside them and walked beside one of the other of them on ail the little outings and really saw nothing of Dlx or any of the other men. After all the guests had retired one night Mariana knocked at the door of one of the girls one she had been escorting on a moonlight stroll that evening. "If you have two dressing gowns, would you awfully mind lend ing me one? I've only got the. pajama sort, and well, I am getting tired ! wearing trousers. I want to be a girl I Just in my own room." And the other girl laughingly handed Teddy her fluffiest, laciest pink chiffon negli gee. By the end of the five-days, house party Marian went home, only with difficulty concealing her grievance toward her hostess' son, Dlx. Even tually, of course, the grievance made itself known to Dlx and there was an explanation. Teddy was pouting a little and blinked back a tear. The other wouldn't blink back so "he" drew a filmy handkerchief from "his" breeches pocket and wiped it tenderly away. "I'm not a bit Jealous," Teddy began. "I don't mind at all that you have gone about with all the other girls and haven't even looked at me, but well, I guess what makes me feel peeved is that I had such a pretty dance frock with pink ruffles and lace and every thing made Just for the party, and I haven't had it on once." I This was Dlx8 cue and he took It, and as he gathered the tearful little , Teddy in his arms they had met In the woods by chance when gathering sticks for a picnic fire he explained his entire plot to her. Yes, he loved her distractedly, and had longed to be with her every minute. But he wanted to make her give up the Idea of being a conductor wanted to show her that sometimes there were advantages in being just a girt Soldier's Cobbler Kit Our soldier boys learn many things besides actual soldiering. When they return to their prosaic tasks after the war, there willbe many a bank clerk, for Instance, who will be eligible to Join the cobblers' union. Of course there are shoe-repair stations all along the lines of battle, but so much de pends upon the condition of his shoes and his consequent foot-comfort that most of the boys carry a little cob blers' kit and make small repairs them selves. The kit consists primarily of a hollow handle, the top of which un screws to disclose the awl, screwdriver, cobblers' tacks, and other essentials for repair work. At the opposite end of the device Is a spool of waxed twine, which threads Immediately into the awl when the awl Is screwed Into place. When some other tool, such as a screwdriver or knlfeblado, is to be used. It Is screwed Into place Instead of the awl. In addition to his shoes the soldier may mend his torn leggings and his saddle straps.
