an ordinary and permissible manifestation of

Indigestion is seldom cured by "•help-
ing" the stomach digest food. Digestives,
like physic pills, usually make slaves of
the stomach and bowels.
Milks Emulsion Is a pleasant, nutri-
tive food and a corrective medicine. It re-
stores healthy, natural bowel action, do-
ing away with all need of pills and phys-
ics. It promotes appetite and quickly
puts the digestive organs in shape to
assimilate food. AS a builder of flesh
and strength. Milks Emulsion Is strongly
recommended to those whom sickness baa
weakened, arid is a powerful aid in re-
sisting and repairing the effects of wast-
ing diseases. Ghronio; stomach trouble-
and constipation are promptly relieved-,
usually in one day. It produces remark-
able results. In colds, coughs and bron-
chlafasthma.

George's hands. The attitude is one of simple
dignity. The features show calm determination.
The: gaze of this clergyman's daughter is directed *
with steadfastness towards the Church of St. Mar-
tin—prototype of charity to the poor and suffering.
A fine conception has been amply realized. Yet
it is almost surpassed by the perfection of the
terminal figure, expressive of the whole spirit of
humanity. Imperturbable serenity, eternal kindli-
ness flow from every line and feature. The one
draped arm half enfolds and protects a nestling
babe, emblematic,of sraaiH&ates and downtrodden

Among the thousands of devoted women who
gave themselves up to the alleviation of the suffer-..!
Ings of the wounded of all nations none was more
capable and self-sacrificing than Edith Cavell.
Her reputation was established, her fame had
spread. Even If a woman wholly bent upon work
of churity within enemy lines rendered herself
liable through pitifulness to the stern decrees of
martial law, not the death sentence, surely, but
deportation was adequate as well as wise. Such
was the world opinion, but not the German: and
at dawn on October 12, 1915, Nurse Cavell was
shot. Indignation, long seething and boiling, now
burst forth universally in swirling clouds oFangry
#steam. The Entente's "will to war" was strength-
ened. Neutral sympathy grew nearer to "direct
action." The Germans, busy driving nails of vic-
tory. into the wooden colossus of Hindeuburg.
alone, failed, to see that they were driving nails
into 'their own coffin.
The effect in England was strong and instan-
taneous.. Lives by the thousands wore being lost. '
Mourning was spreading over the land. The pres-
ent was crowded' with anxiety, the future with-'
gloom. But there was room for fierce resentment,
and no-sacrifice of a single life did more |o crys-
tallize th e resolve to carry through. The hurry-
ing .of events, the tax on memory at a time of
flustered crisis must not bring oblivion -of thft deed
and forgetfulness of the noble woman. In the
capital's midst, Imperishable granite must , keep
ali.e her memory as a frtlleu champion of the
great, and generous band that was keeping nliv«
the spirit of devotion to humanity. Lord_Burn-__
ham headed the movement, nh^ rcsponse to the
appeal for_fuads cdme (juick and free. The rich
roan's cheque, the floor woman's postage stamp
joined to form the ample stream.

terly resented the tohuman act. wasv Sir Gdorge

forgettable words are "Edith Cavell: Brussels:
Dawn; October 12, 1915." Boldly lettered on the
Sides of the monument are "Sacrifice" and "De-
votion.1' "Faithful Unto Death," * "Fortitude,"
"For King and Country" find appropriate place.
The monument . commemorates a solemn epi-
sode of a solemn time. Any approach to the ex-
uberant movement, the dramatic poses of the
baroque style, would have been utterly out of
place and has been absolutely avoided. The
impressiveness of repose, of dignity restful but
strong, of form perfect but simple, of sculpture
expressive but calm—such, has been the aim and
achievement of the creator of this most excellent
work, -v ^ -

Miss Edith Cavell, an English woman, head of
a- training school for nurses In Brussels, Belgiiim,'
was it n ested there by the Germans August 5,
1915, sentenced to death and executed October
12. The charge against her was that she had
harbored fugitive British^and French soldiers and
Belgians of military age and had assisted them
to escape from Belgium In order to join the
colors. Miss Cavell was the daughter of an Eng-
lish clergyman, the late Rev, Frederick Cavell,
vicar of Swardeston. near Norw'ich. She received
her training at the London hospital. ,
Brand Whitlock, American minister at Brussels,
made strong efforts to save Miss Cavell from
dealh, but without avail. • Late on the night of
October 11, lie sent by a messenger the following
note to the German governor. Baron von der
Lanckon: ~
- "My dear Baron:. I am too sick to present my
request myself, but I appeal to your generosity
oftjieiirt to support It and save from death this
unhappy woman. Have pliy on her!"
Minister Whitlpck telegraphed October 12 to'
Ambassador Page In London: "Miss Cavell was
sentenced yesterday and executed at.2 o'clock this
morning

legation in Brussels, in a memorandum'which was

" 'ie monumenr
source that sentence , had been passed In the af-
ternoon, before the last conversation with Mr.
Conrad, and that the execution would take place
during the ni^ht." ,
Mr. Gibson, accompanied by Mr. Delavan, coun-
selor of the American Itegation, and the Spanish
minister to Belgium; went to Baron- von der
Lancken's headquarters., and pleaded, earnestly
with him for delay in carrying out the sentence.
The baron said that the military governor was the
srpreme authority and that an appeal from his
decision could only fye carried to the emperor.
The military governor in a conference with the
baron said he had acted only after mature dellb-
considered th€ death 'peiialty
imperative.
" Miss tT^^r^wa's"trled by a"Muft-maHTai ivith
others accused of the same offense, and was shot
in the prison of St. Gilies at 2 o'clock in the morn-
ing by a squad of soldiers. Those who 6aw her
before and at the time of her execution said that
she met her death bravely.. She: ftckrioAvledged at
the trial that she had helped soldiers to escape,
but there seems to be nothing on record to show
that she had been guilty of spying.
In view of all the circumstances and of the
fact, announced in Minister Whitlock's report to
Ambassador Page, that she had nursed German
officers and soldiers, the execution of Miss Cavell
aroused great indignation, not only In Great Brit-
ain but in neutral countries. Services attended
" by many distinguished persons were held In St.
Paul's cathedral, London, October 29, In memory
of the dead nurse and steps were taken to erect
a monument in her honor.
Dr. Alfred F. M. Zimmermann, German under-
secretary of foreign affairs, issued a long^feite-
irient, October 24, justifying the-execution of Miss
Caveil ^on the ground that she was at the head
of "a. well thought out, worldwide conspiracy to
render the most valuable services to the enemy
„to the disadvantage of. our army/' •
The execution of Miss Cavell, .according; to
Prof. J. II. Morgan, a noted British jurist, wasnot
perhaps, the most revolting of the Innumerable
< Outrages committed by the German army, but It
was certainly tbfe most callous and the most au-
thoritative. Hundreds of women and young girls
" were outraged by Gorman officers and men, many
were shot, arid others burnt alive; But what dis^
tingulshes the case of Miss Cavell—not forgetting
the singular nobility of her character—from these
obscurer tragedies is the fact, that, owing to the
. presence of the vigilant and high-minded, minister
of a noutral state, the veil has been lifted upon
the whole proceedings from their inception t^
■ their mournful conclusion in ihe courtyard of,the
prison of St. Gilies, and the world has had re-
vealed to it in the lhost lurid light the sinister
