Wen her brother, Mr. Wm, Caldwell, with whom she had always lived, failed to get any response, when be called her in the morning, he rous- ed his other sister, Miss Maggie, and t gether they entered the \room and -found that she had been in bed but had gotten up again and dressed. They went into another bedroom and found her leaning against the bed. It is thought she had not been dead long es there was still warmth in the body when found. A severe stroke was the cause of her death. Miss Caldwell was well liked and was of a very jolt disposition. She will be very xnueh missed by a Iarge circle of friends. In religion she was a Presbyterian. Much sympathy is felt for the broth- ers and sisters in their sad - bereave-. cent.

He , is a rich inan, and may well be one of the richest in Aus- tria, and in quitting his country he is making no mistake. In Bulgaria he would have been in danger of as- sassination, for a was he who brought the country to ruin and double disgrace. In Austria he is re- garded not as a Bulgarian, but as a German, for he was a prince of the House of Cobourg, when he was eleeted to the Bulgarian throne. He never had any use for the country be has reigned over for 30 years ex- cept to impoverish it, and when he sold it out to Germany and Aus- tria and forced it into the present war `die may have concluded that there wasn't ° much left in Bulgaria for - anyone to sell. Only because he has had greater opportunitieet has the Kaiser brought the divine right theory into greater contempt than has Fer- dinand, and we are told by- Mr . Cunliffe Owen: who has a most valuable dossier on such matters, that when Ferdinand accepted the throne Czar Alexander III. of Rus- sia predicted that he would bring ruin and desolation upon the Bul- garian nation. Russia had a parti- cular interest in Bulgaria, for it was Russia that helped it establish its independence of Turkey, al- -though a nominal sueerainty was maintained by the Sultan. until 1908, and Russia did not desire that this queer young prince who used. to wear corsets, and powder hie :heels, and cast ravishing glances, should reign over Bulgaria. Fer- dinand l�rofe. sed to have no ambi- tions in that direction either, and as ...te as six hours before he started for Sofia he wired the Czar that he would not accept the throne. • At the time of his election the . Buigars were almost wholly an agricultural people, who had for generations groaned under the Turkish yoke. Newcenzers to free- dom and to such Parliamentary in- stitutions as their had been pro- vided with, they did not make the most of their opportunities, and Ferdina,id, whs was equipped with a huge canipaign fund, bribed him- self to the throne at a moderate ex- penditure. The national debt of Bul- gari when Ferdinand lighted .on it was nominal. At the beginning of the present war it was about $200,- 000,00e. 200! 000,000 . and is supposed tiow to be more than a billion. The state is practically bankrupt, aid will only be able to get along by borrowing frorn the �,iliee. Bulgaria has been in tide Balkan wars and one world war in the course of the past seven or eig>i t -years. Her first and aston- mshingle easy success over Turkey turned the heads of her people, and convinced them that their real mts- aioli on earth was to wage war in- stead of cultivating ' the soil. They look now upon their plight, and it is because Ferdinand knew that their next look. would be toward. him that 1ie�_ Iost no time i'n fading swiftly into the hinterland. But whatever the feelings of the British. people are toward the former Czar of Bulgaria they are not what they dight , have been had Queen Victoria carried out her wish and bestowed upon him the Order of the Bath in i8he. We give It on the authsri�t•v sf bXr. Cunliffe Owen that this was hereintention, and she was only disuade by the then Prince of - Pales, who was a shrewd judge of character and who entertained a Positive loathing for his Oriental - looking kinsman. The First Gentle- man in Europe considered that as a gentleman Ferdinand was a worse shine than even his nephew, Wil- helm, and often declared that the air of Marienbad was poisoned for him when on the occasion of his an- nual visits, Ferdinand used also •to. appear and obsequiously attach himself to Edward's entourage, His unwelcome attentions were persisted hi until the last, for he attended the funeral of Edward VII., and is 'said there to have excited intense indig- nation by his callous attitude and his unseemly mirth and manifestations of impatience at the ceremonies. It. would appear that Ferdinand successfully imposed on " nobody but his own people, for we read in the New York Sun that at the close of an audience at the Vatican which had been reluctantly,,. granted him by Pope Leo, that venerable states- man literally "drove Ferdinand from his presence" and then personally excommunicated him for "violation - of oaths taken on the Gospels and for other crimes both against com- mon law and religion." Madcap, Ferdinand " also showed the basest ingratitude ho Stamkouloff, his first and best premier, and is believed to have instmgated the murder of the statesman, which . took place. at the very gates of i the Imperial palace. Nevertheless, he clung to power for thiety years and cut quite a swath in Europe. He will be remembered by the Allies when the time comes to deal personally with the arch -crimin- als responsible for the war and the atrocities that.. have accompanied it, for when it comes to atrocities the battle cry of the Bulgarians is "Nulii Secundus!" ACTIVITIES OF WOMEN Butlers in a majority of 'the wealthy American homes are being replaced. by women.. Martin Luther was one of the first to advise the employment of women as teachers. Ladies' garment workers in New York city have been granted a 20 per cent. increase in pay. The Women's Patriotic, Society of Miss Myrtle ` M tl Dust of Alpena, ena Mich., is the first woman patrol on the Great Lakes. At least one large hotel in Chicago has decided not to replace male help with feminine workers. - School teachers in Memphis, Tenn., re on a strike and demand a 33 1-3 per cent. increase in salary. Mrs. Anna L. Saylor of Berkley, Cal., is the first woman in that state to be nominated for the state legislature. Conduetorettes on, theyolley cars in Kansas City are demanding that they be allowed to work nine hours a day instead of five. Some of the most exclusive men's clubs in New York City are said to be coriraiderine, a proposal to open the club - membership to women. Miss Ottilla G. Beals of -Seattle, Wash., is. a cand to for election as sheriff to succeed lee brother; who is now on the firing line in Feande. The wife of Winston Churchill, the English statesman, is one of the most versitile women in society, and as a platform speaker she has few equals. Dr. Mary Walker, the only .woman in the United States permitted by offi- cial eanctiqn of congress to wear male attire, is now past 86 years of age. - At a recent annual convention of the American Bar Association" in Cleve- land women were admitted to all the privileges as delegates for the first tinme.. Miss Muriel Gardiner of Eagle Rock Cel., won the 3rd prize in the nation- wide Liberty Loan essay contest. First and second prizes were given to boys. In Japan a young girl, Tatzu fin- ainizo, has obtainedda license as" a sea captain. She was trained by, her father, with whom she sailed the inland sea. Two and a half million woman have beencalled into American indust, a direct result of the war, and millions more will go to work soon after the operation of the new draft law. STRONG PEOPLE NEEDED The need for people to be healthy is urgent. Those whom illness has put outside the ranks of robust men and women feel their position keen- ly. Thee are handicapped in, every walk oil life and weak men and nerve worn women need more - earn- estly than ever to put their health right and become active and strong. Many who beg*n' "patching" months ago are as ill now as on the day they began vainly tinkering -with .common drugs. Every ailing man and wo- man should remember that the ills of debility, nerve exhanagen, indiges- tion,- sleeplessness, neuralgia, and depression comes from a faulty blood supply. Worry, over -work or other causes have impoveriehed the blood and left the life steam. impure. The nervus thereby are starving and the vuhole system is languishing for new blood. In this condition many .thou- sands have won back strong nerves and new health and strength through the new rich blood Dr. Williams Pink Pile actually makes. In a weak or bloodless condition it is not only a waste of time_ and money, but also a further mena a to your health to tinker with common drugs.Fol- low the example of so many thou- sands by giving Dr* 'Williams' Pink -Pills a fair trial, and they active, tram - forte you inte healthy, and women.
