Apparently the time,• has' come.
Germany pitted ••'herselfand e.sin-

concert of hostile nations largely 'by
tearing through , the neiitraliby of
Belgium.
This, last act has really ",orlon-

entire world. Neighboring nations
were amazed and modern ,peace ad-

The Initial Step.
'tea They maw the first great step for
peace in the demands of the smaller
Powers dring She Micldle Ages for
some recognition by warring na-
tions of the rights of non -contend-
ing States. The, initial step in this
direction was taken centuries ago,
even before 1300, .by Venice and the
Mediterranean Republics in the
south of Europe and by members
of the Hansa League in the north.
The recognition -of ' neutrality rights
has been developed to a high degree
by the peace conferences of modern
times; though only recently, nota.-
bly in The Hague Conference of
1907, can the rights of a neutral na-
tion be said definitely to have 'been
ormalated.

modern nations as Belgium, ,Swit-

HERO OF THE HOUR
REAR -ADMIRAL SIR DAVID
BEATTY, ` K.C.B.
the time when groups of nations,
satisfied with, their own develop-
ment, should sign agreements. -never
te„ war with one another again:'
On the theory that all isfair in
love and war, :. the' • German move-
ment into Belgium• may be o,onoeived
by some to be justifiable, . But in.
the light of international honor, as
coaled by the convenitio•ns• on rights -
of neutral nations in The Hague
Conference of 1907, it is an unenvi-
able precedent.
The Kingdom' of, Prussia.
was one of the five :'g1eat Powers
which in 1839 affixed its seal to a,
treaty in Landon which recognized„
the independenoe of B,elgium audits
"perpetual neutrality." The agree-
ment wa•s first submitted in • 1831,-
following the B•elgiam ;revoliition
and the overthrow sof the Dutch re-
gime. But the objections of .Prussia
delayed Holland's • 'assent until
France, hi order to .force -the .issue,
sent an army throtigli.Belgium :to
besiege Antwerp. Not till 1839 was
the ,treaty settled.
In this treaty England declared
her responsibility' for Belgian neu-
trality, and when it was threatened
in the Franco -Garman War of 1870
her determination to live up to this'
promise, expressed openly to
France and . Germany, preserved
Belgium's staltus as a e,eutrale na-
tion... This is why Belgium tiirn,ed
eo England in the reoent oriels and
asked for her support.
Article 2 of the international con-
vention on, general neutrality of
190'7 distinctly states that belliger-
ents` "are forbidden to send troops
or convoys either of munitions of
war or of provisions through the
territory of a a'neutrall State."
For Belgium to' have " peacefully
assented to the passage of the troops
of any nation through the country
would have been a violation of her
obligations to those na,tions which
had guaranteed her n,etetrality., .In-
deed. the duty • was veryexpressly
laid upon her by Article' 10. of the
convention .of 1907, which provides
:that `.`the actby a neutral State of
resisting any violation of its neu-
trality,
Evcii by Force of Arms,
cannot be regarded as an act of
hostility.
It is regrettable that the ideal of
neutralization should have received
this hard blow. For the neutrality
of Belgium, -as of Switzerland, was
no mere paper thing, which war ne-
cessarily would tear to pieces. Ger-
many herself did the -most to give
it, a solid basis, when under the
leadership of William I. and Bis-
lnarck she respected the inviolabil-
ity of Belgian ,soil .throughout the
Franco-Prussian War of 1870. She
''riot only refrained then from invad'-
• ing France • though . Belgium,. but
I she even refrained from sending
home her wounded sorosis. Belgian
territory. She did indeed request
permission to do so, but when the'
•
little kingdom objected Undted'Ger-
many in her hour of triumph bowed
to the objection.
PARIS WEI,L DEFENDED.
I• On the way front Belgium to. Paris
the French have three lines of de-
fence. First are : the . int.re•nehed
i camps of the Li11e district. The
torts .of. Valenciennes, 11tauberge

Such Troubles Now Quickly Rubbed

If you 14ave any muscles that are

ble that Nerviline le noted for curing
quickly. "I have ' proved Nerviline
simply a wonder in reducing a hard,
painful swelling. It followed an in-
jury I received in my lett leg and
caused me great pain ,and discomfort.
The muscles were .strained and sore,
and no otherrentetly' gave the ease
and comfort`, I got from rubbing on.
Nerviline, There is;: a soothing, pain-
relieving power about Nerviline that
touched the root of my trouble. Ner-
viline reduced the s,welling, it destroy-
ed., the pain, it. brought my limb back
to perfect. condition." The experience
of Mr. Bowen, whose home is in Mid-
dlesex, isnot unusual, Tliousauds are
proving every day .that muscular pains
of every kind, chronic rheumatism,
lumbago, neuralgia and sciatica
yield to Nerviline when nothing e_se

GENERAL RADKO DIMiTRIEFF
HAS OFFERED HIS SERVICES
TO RUSSIA.
Napoleon of the Balkans Stay Be
One of the Determining Fac-
tors of the War.
In ' the press of news from the
front the 'significapoe of the brief
statement in recent papers that
General ' Radko Dimitrieff, com-
mander of the Third Bulgarian
Army during the Balkan War, has
telegraphed his resignation in order
than he might join the eitussian
'Army, has escaped general notice.
The, remarkable career of this
hero of the Balkans is sketched by
Lieutenant Wagner in "With the
Victorious _Bulgarians," and this
famous book on the Balkan powers,
and their war against Turkey, now
takes on fresh interest and impor-
tance as .a graphic account of the
generalship of a man who may
easily become adominant factor in
the present war.
"Since the day of Kirk Kilisse, ".
Lieutenant Wagner wrote, "a name
has become generally known
throughout the world, which had
long enjoyed popular fame through-
out Bulgaria itself --the name of
General Radko Dimitrieff, the vie -
for of Kirk Kilisse, and the' com-
mander of the Third Bulgarian
Array.
"The officers and soldiers call
.him Napoleon tscherto, not only on
account of the likeness of his pro-
file and his general build tothat of
Napoleon, but also because he is
the hero of Kirk Kilisse, Lule Bur-
gas and Chorlu.
Successful Student.
"Whence carte Radko Dimitrieff'
What was the past career of this
hero, undoubtedly the most popu-
lar leader of his time in Bulgaria?
He was born in the little town of
Gradez on September 24, 1859, and
after a's+uccessful oourse at the Mili-
tary School of Sofia, passed out as
lieutenant on May 10, 1879. He .then
distinguished himself as a student
at the Academy of the Ge,neral
Staff at Saint Petersburg.
."When the a•nnexartion of Eastern
Roumelia was proclaimed by Prince
Alexander at Philippopolis, he was
sent with most of the 'Bulgarian
Army to the Turkish frontier, for
naturally the general idea was. that
Bulgaria would be -attacked byTur-
key. But the :foresight and the ex-
pectations of Natschovitsch, who
was then ambassador at Bucharest,
were justified, and it was not the
Turks but the Servian brothers of
Bulgaria who were the invaders.
"It is well known how difficult it
then was, on .account of the want of
railways, to transfer Bulgarian
troops from the ,south to the north-
west of the. country. Radko Dimi-
trieff took part as a. captain in this
operation. Marching his men at
headlong speed, he was in time to
be present at the decisive battle of
Slivnitza, as one of'the famous left
wing. But then came the unfortu-
nate dethroning of Prime Alexan-
der, the result of a eonspirasy or-
ganized by ,Russian Pan-Slavists
among the oficers who had studied

aat,_Saant Petersburg and were en-
thusiasts for the Czar, the Libera-
tor from the Turkish yoke. This af-
fair involved the otherwise amiable
and astute Radko Dimitrieff in poli-
tics. He ;had to leave the service
and go away to Russia, where he
was .again employed as an officer,
this tini:e in aforeign army.
(He distinguished, himself in 'vari-
ous ways in his work as captain,
and . soon received promotion. , But
homesickness grew upon him, and
he >often regretted 'that he had al-
lowed himself' to be drawn into
politics.
"Ten years after his exile began
he was enabled to return to Bul-
garia, under the government of Stol-
ioff, -vho had brought about a re-
conciliation with Russia.
His Whole Conduct
in his relations with others and his
zeal for his military duties soon
openedfor him the .advancement
that he sowellmeritted, and he was.
named .;"inspector -general of the
Third Army district.
"In thio appointment General Di-
mitrieff ehowed more than ordi-
nary ability in preparing all the re-
sources he would have to rely upon
in a future war. Frequent staff
rides in the open country, the ideas
and schemes for which were always
very origrinal,` and manoeuvres with
the troops made him greatly liked
and generally popular with the
army. When he appeared among his
troops, which was very often, one
could see in the facets of the men
their enthusiasm for him."
The weakeslt point of the Russian
military hasalways been its gener-
als. And in no other army is effec-
tive leadership more necessary.
Frederick the Great said the Rus-
sian soldiers were so stupid that
they didn't know enough to fall
down when they were killed. Pa-
tient, stubborn, obedient, fearing
death les's than he does his officers,
the mro,ujik lacks only individual
efficiency to make hi'ni the ideal sol-
dier.
It is just this defect that makes
the sueoess of Russian .arms abso-
lutely dependent on the quality of
Russian generals. The Russo-Japa-
nese war failed to disclose any effec-
tive oommender, and, as far as is
known, none has since arisen,
Russia •can put an army of 4,000,000
men into the field. Efficiently led,
such a force as this evotild be well-
nigh irresistible. Under the cir-
cumstances it is noexaggeration
to say that the action of the Napo-
leon of the Balkans in offering his
serviee•s to Russia may be one of
the determining factors of .the war.

The Bride and the Sun.
The old adage, "Happy is the
bride that the sun shines on," is
one that is unknown in some lands.
A Breton 'bride, for instance, takes
it as a bad sign should the day of
her wedding dawn bright and
sunny. Rain on her marriage morn
is held to signify that all her tears
are shed, and that she will, there-
fore, have a happy married life. -
The day before the wedding is call-
ed the "weeping day," for the
bride and her friends weep as much
as possible, with the idea of getting
the mourning over, so that only
what is joyful may remain. In
other countries this result is at-
tained
ttained by drenching the bride with
water. 'The Greeks think that a
thorough drenching of the bride
Will bring her lasting good fortune.
