LONDON. Aug. 18. (By Mail)
The finest reling hospital in the
world ife somewhere in France today.
Known as the "Princes ChristiaH
Hospital train.-' it was built from
subscriptions solicited by the sisters
of the late King Edward, who pro
vided a similar equipment, though
smaller, during the Boer war.
Every requirement necessary for
the care of 400 desperately wounded
soldiers is provided in eight coaches
of the TOO foot conveyance. Six ad
ditional carriages provide lounging
quarters for the sick and slightly
wounded on their way to base hospi
tals from the front. Several coaches
are equipped with beds, a kitchen,
lockers, hot and cold water and elec
tric and gas appliances Including Il
lumination. Another affords sleeping accom
modations for nurses and doctors
while another Is a complete operat
ing room. Hundreds of details
throughout the moving hospital are
supplied from the latest knowledge
of hospitals and surgical supplies. If
necessary It can be sidetracked at an
isolated wavstation near a battle
front and be employed as a stationary
hospital.
A joint committee of the leading
railways 'if France and England su
perintended the construction of the
train at Birmingham.
Much has been said of the famous
American hospital of Paris but little
Ik known of the "American Hospital
of Indon."
America is the Greatest
Country in the World
Because
there are more homes owned in America than in any
other country.
The man who owns his own home makes the best citi
zen. The boy who grows up in his own home makes a
better man than one who is dragged from pillar to post,
lie has more self respect and more respect for his par
ents. It isn't so hard to get a home as it used to be nor as
hard as some people think it is. We have been in the
home furnishing business a long, long time and we can
make home owning easy for those who want to try.
Don't wait until prices go up, see us now.
"WE MAKE IT RIGHT."

nurses and 42 doctors from Canada
and American cities care for the Ca

wounded and torn from the battle
fields across the channel. There are
tennis, golf, billiards and quoits for
the convalescent and the true Cana
dian idea of food, fresh air and
laughter to condition the wounded
men again for the ever-raging strug
gle from which they came. Patients
are fed on fresh eggs, plump chick

Canada. They are given the open air
treatment as soon as possible, and
most any day can be found a fleet of
rolling beds flanking a football field
nearby, where Simon pure Canadian
football is the order.
The new hospital, which Is being
enlarged to care for 500 patients, Is
regarded as a model of hospitals In
England. It is equipped with light

surgical stores, labratories and x-ray
rooms. embracing all the latest In

grandmother and both were wearing
medals with King Albert's picture. A
German officer tore the medals from
them, saying "Away with that king

The young Countess picked up the
medals, and answered hotly: "We
Belgians prefer a king without a

subsequently sentenced by court
martial.
WARSAW, Aug. 8. (By Mall)
"Small arms and bullets are playing
no role In the present war. The rifle
is the infantryman's toy. The infan
tryman does not. fight. When the big
guns have finished the 'infantryman
merely scrambles into the trenches
they have won and occupies them."
This is the statement of Surgeon
Major Leshintseff. who has just re
turned from the scene of the big bat
tle in Gallcla.
"Seven eighths of the wounds are
from shells, half of these from big
calibre shells and the rest from field
howitzers and field guns.''
The shell that the Russians fear
is the Skoda 42 centimetre projectile
weighing 280Q pounds. They are
known to the soldiers as "Pilseners."
The normal projectory of the Skoda
gun is 4 1-2 miles high and in soft
ground the shells penetrate 20 feet
before exploding. The "Pilseners"
are howitzer guns and the projectiles
except in diameter do not represent
the famous Krupp 42 centimetre
shells, also used by the Germans.
Describing the effect of a "pilsen
er" shell." the surgeon said:
"It kills everyone within 150 yards
and kills others who are further off.
The mere pressure of gas breaks in
the partitions and roofs of bomb
proof shells. Scores of men, who es
cape metal fragments, stones and
showers of earth, are killed, lacerat
ed or blinded by the pressure of gas.
Men who are only a short distance
away are torn asunder. Sometimes
only the clothes are stripped off. Of
men close by not a fragment remains
the clothes disappear' and only small
metal articles are found. If the shell
Is very near the explosion melts rifle
barrels as If they were struck by
lli'htnfng. Men who disappear In such
explosions are often reported miss-
inir. as there Is no proof of their
death."

to Promote the Habit,
BY WILBUR S. FORREST
(United Press Staff Correspondent.)
LONDON, Aug. 19. (By Mail.)
Kngland has entered the second year
of war on a strict basis of economy.
Saving Is not only a national duty
but a bald Imperative necessity. Tho
government must have $5,000,000,000
a year to carry on the war. The gov
ernment's annual revenue is only $1,
350.000.000. The balance $3.650,
000,000 must be furnished by the
nation the people. .
The answer Is: Strict economy
starting right away.
This is the keyaote of a stern mes
sage to the people from the parlia
mentary war savings committee,
headed by Premier Asquith, Bonar
Law and other notables. Assisted by
experts on national economy, tha
comm'ttee is telling the people what
to save and how to save it.'
A booklet for nation-wide distribu
tion, soon to be published by the
committee will place the issue be
fore every- British citizen, rich and
poor, high and low. The language
is simple and to the point.
Here Is the little problem in arith
metic that the government economists
write on the national blackboard for
Mr. John Bull:
Eliminate the millions and Just
suppose that the British government
were an every day garden variety ot
man John Bull. John has been en
Joying a comfortable income of $11.
600 a year. After spending money
for household necessities, week-end
trips to the seashore and furnishing
gasoline for his automobile he has
been able to save $1500 a year. Then
suppose, suddenly, he finds himself
enmeshed In a lawsuit with his ag
gresslve neighbor, Herr Johann
Schmidt, of Berlin. To carry on the
lawsuit he must spend $5000 a year.
How can he find the money?
He has four alternatives, the gov
ernment experts say:
1. Sell his investments.
2. Borrow from other people.
3. Draw on money he has In the
bank.
4. Save out of the money he usu
ally spends.
But If he employs any of the first
three suggestions he will come out of
the lawsuit poorer than he went In
There is but one logical suggestion
and that Is to save eliminate the lux
uries. It means that he'll have to
economize, to eat, drink, smoke and
dress less expensively; keep fewer
servants, travel less, go to the the
ater less; utilize his garden to grow
the flowers that he formerly bought
of the florist, and the potatoes and
vegetables that he previously took
Irom the grocer; garage his automo
bile and do without innumerable un
necessary things that eat Into the
family exchequer. If John Bull does
all this he can keep on with his suit
against Johann Schmidt indefinitely
and when it is all over he will be no
poorer. He can then revert to the
original and more comfortable mode
of living.
This jay the parliamentary econ
omists, is the government's plan In
a nutshell. It means to save and
scrape to keep up its battlefield law
suit to the indefinite end and to
emerge with unimpaired credit.
It is pointed out to John Bull col
lectively and individually that to
sell stocks and bonds abroad means
a poorer England; to borrow from
other nations means a greater and
heavier national debt; to draw on the
prevailing national fund means send
ing gold abroad and endangers Brit
ish world-wide banking. Tne proo
lem that Johann Schmidt's lawsuit
puts up to John Bull is the same
problem that the government puts up
to the people. It means use less ano
save more, all of which makes it
possible for the government to Im-
nort less and export more.
During the first six months of
1915, Kngland imported $3,Ho,uiju,
000 worth of goods from other coun
tries and sold them only ll.175.uuu,
000 worth. Duly subtracted and di
vided these figures show that England
bought from other countries at tn
rate of $5,000,000 daily more than
he sold them.
In normal times, normal British
business supplies the deficit, but now
that there Is war, the elements of
trade and commerce that supply tne.
difference are being u?ed for war
Thus say the government economist.
Is shown the Imperative necessity for
thrift And the only solution of the
problem Is a revolution of national
habits.
The government thrift campaign Is
to enter every BritlKh kitchen and
garden.
"Each commtinity will elect It
committee and outline its Individual
thrift campaign," said If. E. Morgan
chairman of the parliamentary com
Ittee today. "Everyone wants to help
his country at a time like this. Flower
gardens and lawns must go. Vegeta
bles must take their place. Every
luwn mustybecome a potato patch."

THE KIND OF FOOD
ATHLETES EAT
YOU SIIOITD FOLLOW THEIR
EXAMPLE OF PICT.
Everyone admires a well rounded
out athlete. His muscles are like
iron and he fairly glows with vim
and vitality. He could not reach this
high state of health were It not for
his diet. His main food invariably
consists of Whole Wheat, for It con
tains all the vital elements he must
have. That Is why so many athletes .
eat "FORCE" the whole) wheat food .
It builds brain and brawn, bone and .
sinew, muscle and nerve, sustains
health and strength.
Not only Is food made from tha
whole wheat nonriHhJmj, It is dell
clous. You doubtless recall some oc
casion possibly In your younger
days when, In passing through a
wheatfleld, you plucked a head of '
wheat which you rubbed between
your hands (blowing away the chaff)
and then ate It.
Do you recall the delicious sweet
flavor of the ripe wheat? That to
Just the flnvor you get In "FORCE;"
scientifically cooked and blended
with barley malt, then toasted and.
flaked. You don't (ret thin flavor lni
other cereal foods. Couldn't xpect ;
It. Whole wheat that's the answer.
Put up In alr-tlght, dust-proof '
packages, "FORCE" comeq to you
fresh and crfup. Ask your grocer. .
