AUSTRIAN COMMANDER'S
REPLY TO A REQUEST FOR
SURRENDER OF PRZEDIYSL
\ ieuna, Oct. 15, via Amsterdam and

: announced officially 'here to-day that
on tlhe afternoon of October 2 the com
mander of the fortress at Przemysl re
ceived through a messenger under a
white flag a request to surrender from
General Ksdko Dimitrieff, in command
of the Russian aruiy of investment. The
. proposal was promptly rejected. General
Dimitrieff's communication was as fol
lows:
"Good luck, which left the Austrian
army with its last successful encounters
j against our troops, has given me the
opporunity of investing the fortress of
Przemvsl, the defense of which has been
, entrusted to you. I assume that it is
not [lossiide to send you 'help from the
; outside. In order to avoid bloodshed,
| the present seems to be the right mo
ment to propose to you negotiations for
j the surrender of the fortress. It' you
, surrender it will be possible to obtain
j honorable conditions for yourself and
I your garrison from the highest coni
j mander in-chief of the Russian forces.
"If your excellency wishes to begin
; negotiations. I beg that you will com
; municate the conditions to our author
| ized delegate, first Lieutenant Wandam.
! I embrace this opportunity to express
my high esteem to your excellency."
"Pile Austrian answer to tihis com
i inundation, which was sent -inimediate
! lv, ran as follows:

neath my dignity to give to your af
fronting proposition the answer w*hich
it deserves. (Signed)

PRINCESS MARY ASKS GIFTS
I FOR EVERY MAN AT FRONT
London, Oct. 16.—Princess Mary
1 has issued an appeal, in which she savs:
J "I want you all to help me send a
| Christmas present from the whole na
! tion to every sailor afloat and every
soldier at the front. On Christmas
, h've, when, like the shepherds of old.
j 'hey keep their watch, doubtless their
, thoughts will turn to home and loved
| ones left behind Perhaps, too, thev
. will recall the days when as children
themselves they were wont to hang up |
their stockings, wondering what the'
I morrow had in store.
"I am sure we will be happier on
Christmas morning to feel that we'have;
helped by sending our little token of j
love and sympathy—something useful
or of permanent value, the making of I
which may be the means of providing i
employment in tho trades adversely at' ;
fec-ted by the war."
It is hoped that the appeal will re- i
suit in the raising of {500,000 for the
provision of gifts, taking the form of i
an embossed brass tobacco or cigarette,
box, pipe and tinder lighter and can- j
dies for the Indian troops.

Dictionary Designer Is Author of Spiz
zerinktum—You Need It in
Tour Business
When you were little you used to!
"play at being things.'' .
(Should you now "Backward, turn
backward, oh, time in its flight" of all
tiie wild fancies you could conjure up.
the occupation of a designer of dic
tionaries and its opportunities to in
fluence the language of your fellow
countrymen would probably not be,
among them. Only thipk, however, ;
what a fanciful time you could have!
and the temptation you might yield to
in the matter of coining new words.
Now, this is the story of a maker
of books, who had for nearly twenty
five years been proof to the lure of be
coming an amateur lexicographer, only
to yield at the very last minute when
urged by his friends to permit to be
placed in his new dictionary oue of
the words he hnd coined for use in win-
success in the business world.
That is the story of the birth of
1 ' Spizzerinktum,' a word which ex
perts claim will live a long and lusty
life.
Wherever Frank E. Wright, publish
er of Bibles, dictionaries and other
j high-class educational works who has
| placed his works in the homos of the
majority of the '"four million"—is
known, that braiu child of his with
the outlandish name is known also.
When Mr. Wright sends a man on
' any mission lie abbreviates the sense
of t hat masterpiece, •• A Message to
Uareia," into one word of four syU
i tables, and the word that is buzzing
in the car of the one whom he lias
charged with a duty to perform is
t'' spi.'.-'.erinktum (nit sonic spizzcrink
j turn in it.''
When Kipling's soldier man told
•'(lunga Din ' to put some "juldee" in
j it, be may have meant much the same
thing that Mr. Wright meant when he
first said "spizzerinkturn."
1 he force of the word so impressed
I tile editor of the New Modern English
j Illustrated Pictionary that he insisted
j upon incorporating it in the volume,
.Mr. Wright reluctantly consented, and
there it is today: "Spizzerinktum—'
vim, go, intense energy, the overmas.
tering will to succeed.''
i New as it is, and striking ns it is.
j it is not the only new or striking fea
ture of this modern dictionary which

It effects such prompt relief, even in
i aggravated Eczema that it is a never
! ending source of amazement to physi
cians.
For many years bold-sulphur
[ has occupied a secure position in the
J treatment of cut.aueous eruptions by
reason of its cooling, parasite-destroy
ing properties, ft is not only parasin
oidal but also antipruritic and anti.
septic and nothing has ever been found
i to take its place in overcoming irritnhle
and inflammatory affections of the skin.
While not always establishing a per
manent cure, yet in every instance it
instantly stops the agonizing itching;
subdues the irritation and heals the
inflamed raw skin right ,up and it is
often years later before any Eczema
eruption again appears.
Those troubled should get from any
phsriracist an ounce of bold-sulphur
and apply it directly upon the
affected skin like you would anv ordi
nary cold cream. It isn't unpleasant
and the promjit relief afforded is ver«
welcome, particularly when the Eczema.
Is accompanied with itching. Adv.
