Morris Jones, who is a surgeon at a hospital in northern France, describes the conditions un- der which the wounded are cared for. He says: We de not see so much of ihe en- gines of destruction here as those of construction--* reconstructing the shattered limbs and tissues nerve- racked by the storm and stress of battle; and I may say right here that the organization of the British for the treatment of the wounded is as near perfection as it can be. Among the men and women engaged in this great work all social distinetjons are forgotten. The "housemaid"" who cleans one's room may be the daugh- ter of a hishop; the lady housekeep- ed has a large estate near Nice, and a few months back she might have been seen any evening-- dressed very differently -- having a flutter at Monte Carlo; the driver of one of our motor ambulances is a young American lawyer; and our lady or- derly is a well-known woman in so- ciety. Sitting at a table near. me at the hotel is a lady who went through the bombardment of Senlis. She kept a racing stud near there, and the Frefich government commandeered all her horses. She organized a hospital. There was at that time only one old Frenchman acting as surgeon to over 200 wounded French soldiers. The Germans arrived. She was struck by two facts -- their insolent and relentless cruelty and their marvelous organization, She devlared that she never once saw a German soldier badly dressed or un- derfed. The day the Germans arriv- ed, the colonel came into her hospi- tal, and asked her in German. "Do vou treat the German wounded here as well as-the French?" On her re- plying "Yes," he said, "Then take me," and suddenly opened his tunie, disclosing a large wound on his left side covered with, an emergency dressing. The king was here 'the other day. There was no pomp or ceremony. He was received with heartfelt homage by the French people and, needless to say, by the British soldiers. The precautions against spies are well- nigh perfect here. Yet they dare and dare. Yesterday I took part in chasing one of them. He was mas- querading as a British Red Cross ambulanee driver, with khaki uni- form all complete. As one walks the streets one sees; intermingling with the khaki of the British, the turbans of the Indians, and the red trousers of the French, the black weeds of very many young widows. These ladies walk proudly with" thie Busy péfFe" and edrridge of the French: with an unconseious sad smile om their faces. Outside as I write, a contigent of French recruits march past, singing in a wonderfully lusty manner the Marseillaise, and around the corner I hear the voicé of British Tommies singing "Wha Is Your Lady Friend?"

No more useful work is being per- formed than that of the ladies' em- ergency committee of the navy lea- gle. Dally since "war broke out about 200 parcels of 11 pounds each have been forwarded to the men in 300 of his majesty's-ships, and to the naval hospitals at Haslar, Chatham, Plymouth, and Bouthend. There are still many hundreds of men who have not been provided with warm clothing, and one can imagine the terrible hardships that have to undergo if insufficiently pro- fected against the bitter cold and boisterous weather recently experien- ced. In an appeal issued in support of the committee's work, Lord Charles Beresford says: _ 'The British fleet is keeping a silent ind ceaseless vigil in the North Sea. - The anxiety and strain is tremendous, but the hard work is cheerfully! undertaken in or- der that the country should receive a punctual and certain supply of food aud raw material. = To the davy be- longs the credit of affording safe pas- sage to our troops and the troops of the empire gallantly to fight the bat- tle for our Bomes in he fields of France apd Belgium."
