Doctor Van, who has just arrived in this city to take n special medical course, was enjoying n quirt supper nt the dormitory of the Woninn's Medical College, when some one told her that a reporter had come to see her. She took two steps into the roo, wheeled nliotit ami ran. After a few minutes her friends persunded her to come back nnd take a less hurried view of the situation. She said, pronouncing her words with rare rleurness nnd charm, that she could not speak Knglish. She ex plained, in the purest diction, thnt her knowledge of the language was so frag mentary that she could scnrcely make herself understood. She really believed it And so the interview went merrily on. Another illusion of this charmingly shy Oriental lady was that anything she might say could be of no possible interest to any one nccording to her. .Months In Hospital Yes. she had been for nine months in the American Tied Cross hospital for refugees in Vladivostok, but she hail been only an assistant to the Americnn, llusslnn and Chinese doctors. They had been very busy during epi demics of typhus nnd jnllur117.11. for many of the people were starved nnd homeless and there never was room enough in the hospital to take care of li wns rrv bud. but she had been too busy in pay much attention to the confusion in the city. Of course, it wns very hard to find a place in lie or get enough to eat, but their pint) hud not suffered greatly. Thev had, it wns true, lived for several weeks in a box car, which wns fairly comfortable for nn nccotiitnodntion of that sort, hut then every one was doing those tilings. And the llolshevlki. No. she knew nothing about them. Of course, it wns not safe to walk nbotit the streets after Mindown. nnd one often heard (hooting. Hut that was nil. And in the men's ward many who hnd been wounded in these riots were brought In for treatment. Hut all this was going on in the city, where she was too busy to go. Many Soldiers There. The soldiers of all the world were there, too So many different ones, in their -li-nnge uniforms, patrolling the streets or .standing about smoking in the squares of the city. Russians, of course, and Japanese, Chinese and Knglish. French. Italians, Armenians and the Americans. The American lied Cross Hospital had been a Hussiau barracks in the earlier days of the war. It had three floors nnd winds for men nnd women 400 lieds in all. There wns just one other hospital in all the city, that run by the American army. She could not see what would become of the poor Hussions after all the Heel Cross units hnd left. The American doctors nnd nurses hail worked so hard. There was so much left lo do. for conditions were still very bad.

Buy Substitution usually breeds dissatisfaction. There is nothing "just as good" to a man or woman who has set mind and heart upon some thing else. And the dealer who sells a customer against the wishes of that customer is a poor business man. This obvious fact is the foun dation of all Waltham Watch advertising. The layman knew very little about a watch. To him. it was a mystery of wheels and gears and pinions, and he believed almost everything he was told about it. So we took the mystery out of a watch ' took him on a tour of inspec tion through its "works" and showed him by illustration and simple language why the Waltham has become univer sally famous as a time-keeping mechanism. And thiswasthefirsttimeinthe history of watchmaking upon 4 this continent that the pro spective purchaser of a watch had been educated, provided with many facts hitherto unpublished and given many reasons why his watch selection should unqualifiedly be a Waltham Watch. We could do this because we were the first watchmakers in the New World to apply American mechanical genius to making the parts of watches absolutely uniform in quality by marvelous machinery, to making them-more accurate, giving them a flawless stand ardization which protected every purchaser or a Wal tham Watch from those ma terial variations which are 'natural attributes of foreign watches made by hand. We were enabled to open wide the door to the works of a Waltham Watch because there were many exclusive Waltham inventions and metallurgical discoveries en shrined in its creation which we were proud to reveal. And because a fallacy was abroad in the land that the foreign-built watch was supe rior to this Ainerican master piece we were glad to do our part to dispel this mis leading idea. Therefore we welcomed the op portunity to make comparisons. Ad Americans .we take pride in de fending American genius, Amer ican watchmakers and American horological achievement as demon strated in the Waltham Watch. People did not generally know that Waltham had won a large majority, of the highest honors at the world's greatest expositions that Wal tham had obtained over six hun dred Kew Observatory ''"cer tificates from stock models at London perhaps the severest test of time-keeping performances that can be given a watch. And now the demand for Waltham Watches is greater than the sup ply our enormous resources are taxed to the utmost. Some one has to wait. The dealer is not to blame. But substitution is a poor exchange for conviction. If you, have decided to buy-a Wal tham Watch, your good judgment equals that of any other man. We prize most that in which our own (faith is invested. A Waltham Watch' is a lifetime, investment. If it is the watch you have decided to buy, and cannot get it immediately, wait for it You will be amply repaid. It will give you that faithful, dependable time-keeping service which has made Waltham the World's Watch' Over Time.
