Domestic events have been of a character that has diverted attention I ? somewhat lrom tho war in Europe r and The Chronicle takes advantage , of an opportuue moment to give brief f line on tho changing situation on the European battle fronts. However : fiercely events may have been moving in the theater of war, they have been moving slowly. It has been six ; months since the Germans opened their attacks on Verdun and while the slaughter on both sides has been ' enormous, Verdun has not been taken and what is more,, it is not likely to : bo taken. Paris has settled down to the conviction that no danger is to be . apprehended from that point, but > Germany has given no indication of i any intention of abandoning the capt ture of the prize for which there has already been an unmeasured of human life. Te situation there is just what it was when .-President Wilson' j. referred to it as a aeaa-iocKeu uuuditiou iu his Charlotte speech last t May. The great offensive movement of the Allies began four weeks ago, and it began with a rush that gave " indications of a precipitate drive ol > the Germans from the shelter of their 1 trtin<-'hcs auj. dug-outs by artillery ' tiro uud hen to "rush" the uncover' ed enemy. The difficulty iu the way of the successful carrying out of this plan may be best appreciated through a 1 i111 o understanding of the situa1 lion of the army assaulted. After ' the first series of bombardments and ' clearance of the trenches, the Allies found that? The enemy's dug-outs went down 30 feet info the chalk and more. Sometimes trapdoors open 1 ed into cellars deeper stijl, Buflt with most remarkable solidity, and equipped as if for permanent 1 habitation, these caves were for the most part shell-proof. They were stored with bombs and grenades and'bristled with machine' guns. The latter were in the hands ' of picked men sworn to fight to the death. 1 The artillery fire on these trenches 1 and dutouts is said to have been more ' terrific than the severest fire by the ' Germans against Verdun, but the duge outs wore not destroyed. It was from the German machine gun men man ning the openings from these holes that the assaulting columns sustained ed their heaviest losses. Wen the Alr lies clambered from their own tren0 ches and crawled toward the German s defenses?in all cases but a few feet t pway?the German juachinegt/nucrs s came up from the recesses of their s caves, aimed their weapons over the 1 parapets ami swept the attacking n ranks with murderous streams of 0 lead. It is said of the Germans who had been left behind to do this deadly 1 work that they were game to the last. - In nearly every case they died the 11 dcatli, but neyei^surrendered.^aU- is 11 that lias made the advance of the Bri0 tish and French so slow and that may ? make the situation there resolve its self into one similar to that at Verdun. If that should come to pass, '' it is possible for the war to he pro'! longed into another year. The bring. If ing of the war to an earlier conclu'' siou would then depend upon the operations of Russia on the eastern " front. Russia is closing In on Austria rapidly, relentlessly. The Russian drive may break Austria even before the Allies shall have succeeded in forcing the Germans from their de! fensos in the west and it may be that the glory of brining the war to an end may rest with the Armies of the Czar. The faster the Russian sweep, the sooner wil the war be over. The eastern front of the Allies is now acting t in the nature of the nether millstone upon which the Russians, operating as the upper, may in the end crush , the German Empire. oi nnAAn ni Ait dUUUCldIO DnUHU r UHIM FOR NATIONAL DEFENSE, Increase Standing Regular Force?Four Hundred Thousand Citizen Soldiers.

MITCHEL ? =ift Perclvnl and Arnold Stewart, brothera, enlisted when the pan-European wnr broke out in a regiment of Infantry and crossed the channel into Belgium. That was when the Germans were driving the allies southward, and it was expected that they would drive right through Tnrls. One evening, when the Germans were pushing the allies toward Lille, the regiment with which the Stewart brothers served made a stand. The Stewarts were in the same company and fought shoulder to shoulder. Pereival was two years older than Arnold and kept an eye on his brother, dreading every instant to see him fall to the ground. Presently, truo enough, what he feared came to pass. Arnold fell, literally torn to pieces by a bursting shell. Maddened at the sight, Terclval pushed forward, but the stand of the British was only a temporary one, and the order was given to fall back. The young soldier, exasperated at not be> lug permitted to wreak his vengeance on those who had killed his brother,, refused to retreat and, remaining behind, continued to firo at the enemy. But presently, seeing blood on one of his hands, he knew that he had been hit and followed his comrades. By this time darkness had fallen, and Stewart saw the retreating British lino through the gloaming. They were to make a lengthy retreat this time, for the French Were being pushed back rapidly, and the British, who were on their flank, had a greater distance than tbey to go to keep the alignment Perclval was marching some COO yards behind them. The enemy on that part of the field had thrown forward skirmishers to harass their retreat Porclvul trudged along, following the men ahead of him, at times trying to catch up with them. lie had been shot In the arm, but fortuuately the artery had not been cut for In this caso ho would have bled to deuth. Ills mind was on the brother he had lost and belthcr his condition nor hl9 surroundings engaged his attention. Stragglers were hurrying past him, and he was passing stragglers. The former were in better condition than he, and the latter were mostly more severely wounded. But there was one who neither seemed to gain nor lose 011 Perclval. lie was in Peflclval's rear and a couple of yards behind him. now Perclval became conscious of the man's presence ho did not know, for he heard no sound coming from his follower. He was simply conscious that some one was behind him. Turning, he saw through the darkness what appeared to be a person. Whether he was old or young, soldier or citizen, Stewart could not tell. He only knew that some one f The soldier trurfgeTT staggered on, for by this time he was very weak from loss of blood. New and again a bullet whistled past him, sent by some skirmisher, but none came dangerously near him. Twice during tho retreat he looked back and both times saw his shadower In the same relative position as before. Once when he turned a flash from a distant cannon slightly Increased his vision, and he saw the person behind him a triflo more clearly. For an Instant there was a flash of joy In his heart, for from the glimpse ho got of the person's face It seemed to be that of his brother, Arnold. But he had seen his bruther blown to atoms, and he knew this could not be. Nevertheless, from the time of this Instantaneous view he became impressed that there was some connection between this figure and Arnold. Presently, when the skirmish line was passing so near the British line as to harass tlioni with scattered shots, the Englishmen sent back a small force to drive dock tncir ronowere. This line passed I'erclvnl. dashed In among the German skirmishers and drove them hack upon their own main force. rerclval. who was now safe with his own comrades, looked for the man who had heon trudging behind him. lie had vanished. On reaching the British lims Fir wart found himself among those who had been l.oar him en the retreat. "Who was the fellow behind you?" asked a man who had traveled near him. "IMre tly in my rear?" "v's." "Bid \ on see any one?" "I did. and lie got between you and :i G:-. i mi j?i i i.i time to save you from a buiiel. i'lte ( iei ntan wjls about to Are, but lowered Ills piece. There wasn't much light, and I judged that he was afraid of killing one of his own men." Stewart a-deed 110 more questions. What he thought was the result of feeling rather than reason. It wns far stronger than reason. Indeed, no one could persuade him that the spirit of his hr.ither had not followed him and protected him fmm death. During the past half century the belief in the guardian angel lias greatly deteriorated. This Is simply because there lias been so much of the marvelous In science that it has overshadowed all that is Inexplicable by nature's laws. But our knowledge of these laws is Infinitesimal, 'mere are tuose today who are looking for sonic scientific connection with those who have passed into the great unknown. V IIUKJXG COrttll WEAKENS ?

('. ?0n Dear Doctor: t,0 ; A week l>efore Christinas I learned through Mr. R. M. Jose.v that you had suj: cured him of a bad ease of piles of j forty years' standing in four days, ,|.t^ without an oi>erution or 1 1,0,1 some correspondence wiiM-"yyu, ami on Tuesday, the 18th <?f Jaimury. I j went to your ofllee for treiitiiient. M.v piles were of ten years' standing and (jQ(1 protruded at every evacuation and g^ gave uie n great deal of trouble. J)ar] I had heen advised to have tliciu operated uikhi?in fact, the very day that I went to your ofliee I was ad j vised by a friend who had undergone ^ a surgical operation to go to a certain .. inlirniary and submit to the operation method- He told me that I would ^ suffer some pain and would get well of the piles; whereas it was his candid opinion that if I took any other ^ treatment I would he wasting money and time. I know he was honest in this, hut learning 'that you had sue- j^CII< ceeded in other cases, and dreading a surgical oi?eration, I went to you as stated above, on the 18th of this month. You examined me and treated me that day. The next day you gave t * me another treatment, and after the ^ar second treatment I never had any 0l,i symptoms of the piles. I stayed and ^ took daily treatments until Saturday. UeI when I went home. It has not been long enough for me to say that I am permanently cured. I ' --x v .? dat out learning mm. uiiin.-' 11.4.^. the same good results in the same length of time, I believe that I am cra ccured. I know that I am like an- *^l,i other persaou atogether in that particular, and it was done so easily and without any pain or any inconvenience. 1 am yriting it as my honest I aval] themselves of this method of dat treatment As I understand it, and ?f ' as my experience is so far, the ad- ri'l vantages of this treatment over a sur- tioi gical opratiou are many. You not not have to ee put to sleep or lay up 1 in a hospital for a couple of weeks and I 1 suffer pain for a number of days, as is for the case iu a surgical operation. The del exi>euses of the treatment ar less and the 1 the time of a cure is less, and 1 understand the percentage of cures is greater. Dr. Register informs me that not 1 ) a single case of well defined ppiles has by fuiled to get cured under this method rea > of treatment by him in several scores Au " of patients, where they took the full De ! treatment As stated above, I am writing this for the benefit of fellow sufferers.
