CZAR AND KAISER
READY FOR DEATH
GRAPPLE IN EAST
Crucial Battle Impends as
Gerrtlan Columns and Re
invigorated Austrians Push
Russians Back on Their
Own Soil.
LONDON, Oct. 14.
All eyes today nro turned to the east
ward, where under conditions of tho ut
most secrecy, tho Teutonic allies nnd tho
Russians are preparing to cngngo In what
may prove ono of tho most dcclslto com
bats of tho war.
Evidence Is accumulating to show that
this gigantic conrllct will bo determined
In Russian Poland, nnd tho only ques
tion disturbing tho Urltlsh oxperts Is as
to which sldo has chosen tho battle
ground.
Berlin admits having withdrawn from
the N'lcmcn nivcr, nnd at tho snmo tlmo
discounts tho wholo movement In that
region as being of no strategic Im
portance. It Is now clear that Itupela has aban
doned tho narrow point In Qnllcla be
tween 1'rzcmysl and Cracow, Itusslan
forces having virtually occupied all of
Gallcla with tho exception of theso two
placed, l'etrogrnd claims this operation
Is duo to strategic reasons, whllo Vienna
maintains that rejuvenated Austrian
armies lmvo relieved the Przomysl for
tress and driven tho Invaders out. ft Is
unquestioned that tho more or less de
moralized Austrian forces, stiffened by
Herman reinforcements, have resumed
the offensive, but there Is no Information
here to Indicate that the nupslnn retire
ment is anything In tho nature of a rout
resulting from vigorous lighting.
Whatever may bo the Intention of tho
armies opcintlmr on tho ends of the great
Jtus-Man bnttlo front, it Is clear that
theso movements havo paled Into Insig
nificance beside the tremendous forward
advance In the centre, riroadly speaking,
this Is now tho position of tho antag
onists awaiting tho word to open tho
engagement. Tho main German nrmlcs In
Russian Poland nro moving toward tho
Vistula Itlver on a north nnd south front
extending through Plclrlfow, DO miles
southwest of Warsaw, Klelce, and Husk,
on the Bug River, 30 miles cast of Jem-
borg. To tho left of this army, between
Lodz nnd Kallaz, Is another German
force, and on tho right of tho main Ger
man army is an Austrian force.
The bulk of the Russian troops are
on the east bank of the Vistula, but
ft portion of their forces are still on
the west side of the river. Tho naturo
of tho country makes It probable that
the centre of the battle line will bo
between Bandomlerz and Ivangorod, both
on the Vistula River, and about 60 miles
apart.
In order to take up these positions tho
Germnns have been compelled to aban
don strong positions along the River
Warthe nnd avail themselves of tho
transportation facilities of Russian rail
roads, which are Incomparably poorer
than what they have been accustomed
to. The Russians nro described ns keen
to engage tho enemy In a country of
their own choosing and near the base of
their supplies.
Tho Germans are still retiring In tho
direction of Rast Prussia, nnd In Petro
grnd there Is a report of a Russian
victory near Raczkt, midway between
Augustowo nnd Suwalkl, which resulted
In the capture of several Gorman bat
teries sent from Koenlgsberg.
uciiiji uuumii'M umi nil ui mu vuaii:wi i
part of Russian Poland Is now In tho V
possession of Germany, nnd that every
placo west of tho Vistula, with tho ex
ception of Warsaw, Is In their hands,
R would appear to bo a fact that no
heavy engagements yet have been fought
hi this region, most of the fighting being
between screens of cavnlry.
Should the Austro-Gcrman forces suf
fer defeat along tho battlo front now
forming, tho way would bo opened, It Is
being argued In London, for tho Inva
sion of Sllosla, .which, next to the Rhino
provinces, Is the richest district of Ger
many. Hut It Is not expected, oven In
tho event of their victory, that tho Rus
sians will ndvnncc with nny great speed.
Tho topography of the country and tho
lack of transports precludes tho possi
bility of nnythlng llko the Gorman sweep
through Belgium.

PROSECUTE FORMER SHERIFF
William Hnrrlgnn Accused of Re

Onco upon a time, a long whllo ago, a
man ho must havo been ono of tho first
feminists of his day wroto a well-known
llttlo couplet which tho Tired Business
Man has had dinned Into his ears for
lo, these many moons. It ran:
A man's work's from sun to sun
A woman's work Is never done.
That man were he living today would
be eligible for the Ananias Club. Ho
could get right In without even having
to havo nny one put him up; not a slnglo
person would dare to oppose him. His
ridiculous llttlo ndago Is all the passport
necessnry.
A woman's work never donoT Non
sense. If you don't bcllevo that It's non
sense, go up to tho first nnnual exhibi
tion of tho Philadelphia Hardware Asso
ciation In the Parkway Building at Broad
and Cherry streets and see for yourself.
See all the llttlo peelers, nnd parcrs,
nnd shavers, and labor-saving devices
that havo bcon Invonted for tho express
purpose of getting a woman's work done
almost beforo sho realizes that sho has
started: and rojolco that you are living
In nn ago when the back-breaking broom
and Insanitary dust-cloth nro destined to

AUTOMATIC CLOTHES WASHER.
"Look, Ma," said a wide-eyed little
youngster to her up-Stato maternal com
panlbn, who was standing In front of
ono of the booths, "you don't even havo
to wash your own clothes any more."
And Mn, concentrating with her wholo
soul on tho superior merits of a newly
Invented washing machine, wondered If
sho could avo enough from tho proceeds
of her next year's vegetable garden to
possess ono of them.
No, you don't have to wash your clothes
nny more. If you use electricity you can
obtain a washing machine that will do It
for you and which, to boot, will use only
tho power of a 32-watt light. If you
haven't electricity, you enn hitch your
washing machine on to tho kitchen hy
drant and go forth blithely to your Mon
day Morning Literary Society, secure
In the thought that tho week's clothes
will come forth as white ub tho dovo of
peaco, a plentiful supply of water and
tho absent trentmont bolng the only re
quirements. You don't even havo to get
up any more to see what tlmo It Is.
WONDERFUL CLOCK DEVICE.
Suppose, for Instance, that you are one
of those curious Individuals, who, when
you can't sleep at night, are consumed
with Interest to know Just whero Father
Tlmo Is pointing his finger. It Isn't
necessary to risk pnoumonla by hopping
out of a warm bed with tho thermometer
at 20 to nee what tlmo It Is; It Isn't even
necessary to Imperil your religion and
the religion of your nncestors by stubbing
your too in tho dark. You merely llo
back luxuriously, draw tho covers up a
weo bit closer, push tho button at the
end of a long silken wire which Is under
your pillow and tho clock on your table
Is Illuminated In such a way that a
facsimile of tho dial Is reflected on the
celling.
And tho method of operation Is so simple
that It's a wonder no ono has thought of
It before. Two electric bulbs are con
cealed In the body of tho clock In such
a way that a reflection of tho dial is
projected on tho celling and' enlarged to
tho diameter of two feet, showing the
face of tho clock with such clearness
that no matter how myopic ono may be,
ho would have difficulty in not seeing It.
JOY FOR THE HOUSEKEEPER.
And how about your paring nnd carv
ing? Do you assassinate yourself every
time you peel tho potatoes? Aro you In
tho habit of carving your own anatomy
when you should bo carving tho roast
or slicing tho bread. Don't do It. Oo up
to tho Parkway Building any nfternoon
or evening until October 17 nnd soo the
home safety paror and knifo that Is bo
lng demonstrated thore. For real prac
ticability It has tho safety razor beat
to a finish.
There are other things there, too. de
signed to bring a gleam of Joy Into the
eye of tho one-time household drudco.
Thore aro carpet sweepers and vacuum
cleaners with up-to-the-mlnuto Improve
ments. Thero aro especially devised
suction pumps for gorged sinks and
drains, tho bugbear of nil housekeepers.
Thero are nailloss hangers which do
away with molding nnd wall mutilation
and are guaranteed to hold anything from
a Rembrandt to a toothbrush. Thoro aro
more queer little Instruments than a
surgeon's kit could ever boast grape
fruit knives, cherry seeders, fruit parers
and what not.
Indeed, tho first exhibition of the Phila
delphia Hardware Association, with most

"missis," who If she could afford to In

shown, would forget all about there be
ing any woman's work at all, much less
It's never being done.

MAETERLINCK PAYS POETIC
TRIBUTE TO BELGIAN KING
Calls Ruler of Afflicted Zand "Finest
Hero of Wnr."
PARIS, Oct. 14.
Maurice Maeterlinck, the Belgian poet,
pays a remarkablo tribute to King Albert
of Belgium In today's edition of tho
Journat.
"The young King of my country," he
writes, "Is the finest hero of this war and
one wo shall never sufficiently love. At
the critical hour ho was tho heaven-sent
man who Incarnated nil our hearts.
"Of all his dear kingdom, his pride, his
Joy', his house of happiness, thero remnln
only n few towns Intact. Theso are nt
every moment threatened by the vilest
Invader the world han over known.
"One of the most beautiful countries In
the world Is only a field of horror. Half
Its population Is wandering hungry and
homeless ncross tho face of Europe.
Thousands of Innocents havo been mas
sacred, but all take refuge In tho great
soul of their King, and there is not a
slnglo murmur or reproach.
"Never beforo havo such sacrifice of
life, such ardor, abnegation and enthu
siasm been sen."

BEFORE THE SANDMAN COMES
ONE sunny fall day the seeds on
a merry brown sunflower an
nounced that they wanted to be
planted.
'"Now we are brown and ripe and
ready," they said, "and wc want you
to plant us."
"Dear me, you are in a rush I" ex
claimed the East-breeze, who hap
pened to be passing. "Why didn't you
let me take you yesterday when I
had plenty of timer"
"Because we were not ready then,"
said the biggest seed.
"Itccause I wasn't big enough yet,"
added the littlest seed.
The East-breeze laughed. Maybe
you think you're big now," he taunted.
The littlest seetl blushed as much
as a dry brown seed can blush. "No,
I don't think I'm really biff," she ex
plained, "but I do think I'm bigger
than I was."
"I rather expect you are," replied
the East-breeze good-naturedly.
"Now, where do you want me to take
you?"
"Oh, we want to go all over the
garden," cried the seeds.
"All over the garden!" laughed the
East-breeze. "Isn't that a large or
der?" "Maybe it is," said the seeds, "but
you see we're a large flowerl"
"AH right," said the breeze. "Now
you can pick out exactly where you
want to be planted and I'll take you
there I"
"Oh, goody," the seedi exclaimed.
Then they remembered their manners
and added, "You are the very kindest
and nicest breeze there ever was I"
The East-breeze was so flattered
arid flurried by their compliments 1
He attempted to make a bow, but in
stead he r1 !e a whirlwind of leaves
ja the. garden
The seeds laughed at him and the
leaves scolded till he was glad to
straighten up and stop bowing.
"And now we're ready," said the
biggest seed, suggestively, ''maybe you
would like to take us right away."
The East-breeze rustled the sun
flower stalk just a little and the big
gest seed dropped out and into the
arms of the breeze.
'.'T1!ertV. l Faueht '" a" risht,"
said the East-breeze. "Now where do
you go?"
"Over by the pear tree," said the
seed.
So the breeze slipped the seed under
some dead leaves by the pear tree, and
returned to the sunflower for 'more.
All through the morning the breeze
carried seeds planted them hither
and yon through the Harden.
By noon the East-breeze was pretty
tired. "Why don't you carry two of
us at once," suggested the littlest
seed.
"AH right, I'll try that," said the
breeze, who was really anxious to get
through his work. "Only you must
hold very tight," he warned.
The littlest seed dropped Into the
breeze, along with a middle-sized
seed; and traveled safely till the yard
was almost crossed. Then quite sud
denly, she lost her hold; slipped feil
and rolled under a big log!
And what do you suppose! The
next summer a great big sunflower
plant grew, twisting and crooking, out
from under that big old log!
Grown folks, who didn t know
about the seeds, wondered how in the
world that sunflower got under the
old log I
