We do Developing and Printing. Remember the place: THE >F y� yq STORE THE ALLIED ARMIES. ARE WELL FED- THE PRINCIPAL FOODS ARE MEAT AND BREAD. British Forces' Are the Best Ped Ever Placed in the Field. • No branch of the non-combatant services of the British army has worm greater praise from soldiers at the front or more admiration from the public at home thin has the Army Service Corps. It is only owing to the untiring efforts of this little army of provision merchants that the Bri- tish forces have gained their reputa- tion as the hest -fed .,army that has ever been placed in the field. The knowledge of this splendid pro- visioning ' of the army has uncon- sciously given rise to the theory that the soldiers of the other. Allies are comparatively more or less insuffi- ciently supplied with ammunition for the inner man. These' impressions, however, are en- tirely erroneous, and a comparison be- tween the official rations allowed to the soldiers of the allied nations will prove that the Frenchmen and the Russian are; like the British soldier, among the best -fed fighters in history. In each of the allied armies -Bri- tish, French, Russian and Belgian - the principal foods are meat and bread. A glance at the following fig- ures, which indicate the daily allow- ance of meat and bread to every man of the four armies, will show that the fare of the others compares very favorably with that of the British: British French Meat, Bread, lbs. lbs. 11/a 1,/e 1 1%, Russian 031 2% Belgian08'.1 1% 'flow Russians Are Fed. The Briton, it will thus be seen, actually receives less bread than any of his comrades; but, on the other hand, his allowance of meat is con- siderably larger. In examining the soldiers' menus more closely, that of. the Russian may be taken first, since it is the least known. In every case the allowances have been translated into English terms in order to make a comparison easier. ,The Russian breakfasts later than any of the allied soldiers. He does not receive his 'first ration until just before 8 o'clock. These are: Half an ounce of Tchai (tea), Three ounces of sugar, Three font (2% lbs.) Cherni Chicb (black bread), The tea and sugar have to last all day. The bread is usually served out on alternate days, six funt, (a little less than six pounds) each time. For dinner, which generally takes place just before noon, each group of ten soldiers receives a large dish of ' Borsla" This contains cabbage and potatoes mixed in various gravies, The ten men sit around the dish, each with a big wooden spoon, andall help themselves at once. After this comes the national dish "Kasha," a kind of porridge. This the men eat in the same ,fashion ns 'Borsht." "Kasha" is very Cheap in Russia, and soldiers can have as much as they want. When this has been disposed of the meal finishes with an allowance of half a pound of meat per, man. The meat is cooked with he "Borsht." The third and last Russian meal is erved-about 6.30 in the evening and onsists of more "Borsht," together with a quarter of a pound of meat. It often happens that the Russian oldier receives more bread than he eeds, and the surplus he is allowed o sell in order to increase his meagre ay, which, it may be interesting to dd, amounts to 50 kopecs, about a shilling, a month. The Belgian Soldier s allowed nearly 1% pounds of bread er day. This is known as "pain gris," a mixture of white and black read: His meals are: Breakfast, 6.30 a.m.-Bread; coffee, ontainiiug milk and sugar. As a gen- oral rule butter has not been served, though it is expected to be added to the rations in future. Dinner, 12 neon, -About 2 pints of oup ,to which plenty, of salt is added; of a poi.md of .meat, which is boiled ith the soup and afterward taken. ut and served separately; 21/2 pounds of mashed potatoes, in which bacon tinil vegetr' 1's are mixer!; scrnetimes adding.

This mixttu•e of vegetables and ba- n forms the principal food,of the elgians. Frequently the solier, af- rehis morning coffee, gets no other everege bet water. Upon going in the trenches he is usually given a iti0n of condensed meat, equal in ronortion'to the daily ration.

Two Have Received Decorations for Deeds of Heroism Under Fire. Besides the legions of Polish volun- teers forming a part of the Austro- I-Iungarian army. fighting the Rus- sians, there is a Ukraine Iegion. The "Ukrainians" are that part of the Ruthenian population living in the eastern districts of Galicia who are pronouncedly pro -Austrian, writes Dr. Wolf Von Schierbrand, from Vienna. Among the members of the legion are sixty adventurous women and girls, Two were killed in action, others are recovering from wounds and a few were taken prisoner by the Russians. The status of these pri- soners as regular belligerents -is re- cognized, just as the Austrians have recognized that of the Russian wo- men soldiers, of whim, according to Russian official accounts, there are several hundreds. I met one of the severely wounded heroines, now mending in a reserve hospital in Vienna, recently, She is Sophia Ilaletschlco, 24, quite pretty, of regular and delicate features, blond and girlish. When the war started the had just finished the medical course at the University of Lemberg, Receiving a Doctor's Diploma. Then Lemberg was taken by the Rus- sians and she joined the Ukraine le- gion, For nearly a year she under- went all the hardships of a strenuous campaign, a part of the time in time dead of winter, in the wild passes of the Carplithians and in the mountains of the Bukowina range without loss of health or good looks. Miss Haletschko after a brief sea- son of drilling showed remarkable gifts as a scout and ranger. In the "Ssitsh" (the Ukraine name for the legion) she earned the reputation of being excellent in reconnoitring. She was enrolled in the cavalry, became sergeant -major and was decorated twice for extraordinary bravery. She wears a silver medal for daring be- fore the enemy. She showed me a Russian illus- trated journal in which appeared the portraits of a score of Russian women fighting for the Czar. "Once we made a lot of prisoners," she remarked. "It was across the Russian border, about twenty miles south-east of Czernowitz, and there was a woman among them, though our men did not know it at first. I took care of her and saw to it that no harm should befall her on the transport to our lines near'Iiol:ocien- ica." Promoted and Decorated. But Fraulein Haletschko is not the only remarkable case of this kind. Olena Stepaniv, a fellow student of hers from Lemberg, though five years her' juniol','likewise distinguished her- self as a scout, won promotion end. was decorated, but had the ill fortune to be taken prisoner at Boleshov. Nothing as to her fate has become 'known. Then there is Irene Kiss, who wears her hair short and strides like a man. During the struggles for the posses- sion of the Makovlca Mountain (Car- pathian range), she ran in the hottest fire up to a corner where a Maxim gun was dealing death and destruc- ti0m, carrying hand grenades, and' threw one of them so skilfully as to destroy men and gun. The captain in command kissed her. Then there is Alma Dmyterks, an- other, Lemberg University student; Olga Pidwysocica, only ,17, who join- ed the'ranks from the teachers' semi-. wary, and Pauling Mychajlyschin, a young widow, who wants to revenge the death Of her husband by the Rus- siatss. They hanged him_ as an Aus- trian spy in a small town of eastern Galicia. Of the Russian prisoners of war 40,000 in Austria and Hungary are now rat work getting in .the crops. 'These are nearly all peasants, village bred and used to field labor -sturdy, big fellows. Their labor is wholly' voluntary, a1nd, they like it, because of the relative freeclom, the more varied and more plentiful food, and because of the nature of the work, to which they, have been habituated all their lives. y A State lunchl'.in China comprises 146 dishes. ENEMY VESSELS SUNK IN BALTIC Two Destroyers Sent to the Bottom of the Ocean by a British Submarine. A despatch from Copenhagen says:, Two German torpedo-boat destroyers' have been sunk in Baltic waters by a British submarine, according to re- ports reaching Copenhagen. One of the German warships was torpedoed at the southern entrance to The Sound, a narrow strait between Den- mark and Sweden which connects the Baltic with the North Sea. A great explosion followed the striking of the torpedo, and the destroyer foundered immediately. A message from Falsterbo, Sweden, which brought news of this incident, adds that other. German destroyers and a cruiser which were accompany- ing the destroyer that - was sunk speeded to the southward. The infor- mation received here indicated that all the members of the destroyer's• crew were lost. Additional details were given in a subsequent despatch. According to this version, 'a German cruiser and three destroyers were engaged with the British submarine. The German craft moved in circles to avoid the attack of the submarine, which was bombarded heavily. This eontinued for some time until the submarine lodged a torpedo on the destroyer, which sank with a terrific explosion. The other German warships are said to have retreated. The submarine rose to the surface and remained on the scene some time before it disap- peared. A sharp look -out from the Danish coast is being kept, but no survivors have been found. Despatches to the evening news- papers here say that a second Ger- man torpedo boat was sunk by the British submarine E-19 near Faxe. British submarines have now clear- ed the Baltic Sea and the Gulf of Bothnia entirely of German merchant ships.

The announcement offering for sale the wedding shoes of Queen Victoria recalls the fact that Her Majesty was a keen collector of historical relics. At a sale held in November, 1899, she commissioned a well-known dealer to secure for her a walking -stick carved to represent "Wisdom and Folly," once the property of Prince Charles Edward. The royal agent had carte blanche, and the stick was knocked down to him for £160. This was a monstrous price when we consider that shortly before the young Preten- der's dirk, with flint -lock pistol at- tached, realized only £3 15s.; whilst the great Rob Roy's claymore, made by Andrea Ferrara, with its shark's skin grip and all, went for £37 16s.

CANADIANS AMONG THE VICTIMS OF THE LAST ZEPPELIN RAID Reported Military Casualties Probably All Occur- red at Dominion Artillery Camp in Kent • A despatch from Ottawa says: The Zeppelin raids on England have now come home to Canada. From the cas- ualty lists received and from informa- tion obtained from local militia sources it would appear that eleven Canadian artillerymen were among those who lost their lives in the last raid, that on the 13th. The total rnili-- tary casualties reported in the offi-' cial statement by the British authori- ties were 14 killed and 13 wounded, so that it would appear that it was largely Canadians who suffered. Be- side the 11 men who lost their lives three are reported as missing and three wounded. All these casualties took place at Otterpool camp, hent, England. The casualties took place among the 5th brigade of the Canadian sec- ond division artillery, As far as is known, these are the first Canadians to sleet death as a result of a Zeppe- lin raid. The casualties of this type are all Western men, except Sergt. E. C. Harris, a well-known lacrosse player,'whose next-of-kin is given as residing in St Catharines, Ont., and was a member of the 29th battery. ENGLISH SCHOOL MISTRESS PUT TO DEATH IN BRUSSELS Germans Execute Woman Charged, Not With Espionage, But With Harboring Ally Soldiers A despatch from London says: The Foreign Office has been notified by the American Embassy that Miss Edith Cavell, lately the head of a large training school in Brussels, who was arrested Aug. 5 by the German authorities in Brussels, was executed Oct. 13 after sentence of death had been passed upon her. It is under- stood that the charge against Miss Cavell was that she harbored fugitive British and French soldiers and. Bel - glans of military age, and had as- sisted them to escape from Belgium in order to joist their colors.
