NEW. BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 18, 1916, Good News for Housewives are now equipped with convenient Gas End Ovens of the new, improved Drop-broiler type —with center-heat burners. Unlike some so-called “ combination " ranges, the Crawford has two separate and distinct ovens: one for gas and one for coal— both perfect. The Crawford Gas Oven is larger and better than most ovens. It is fitted with the. only safety li-hter approved by the American Museum of Safety. Good cooking, always a habit with all Crawfords, is now made doubly easy, convenient and pleasurable. Folded beneath the oven (out of the way when not in use) is the new, ingenious Drop-broiler. This convenient feature is a great aid to better cooking because it permits instantaneous adjustment of distance between flame and fiood — without touching the pan— without bending over. Other important features are the five center-fire top burners of a new type (‘most ranges have only three ), con- cealed pipes, sanitary top gratings and guarded cocks. Then there is the famous Single Damper that regulates fire and oven yitha singl meve of an always-cool nob. When you go to your Crauford Dealer and incestigate these and the many. cther Gilincite” Craford Siperories — ot it realize why there’s no range like the Crauwford in world. SOLD BY J. 0.

Stockholm, Sweden, Oct. 2.—There came to Stockholm a little while ago one of the distinctly unique personali- ties of the great world war—a man who had lived by the sword almost from boyhaod, but who in the sudden turn of events in 1914 found himself, not a man without a country, but a man with two countries—two coun- tries arrayed against each other in the bitterest of all world combats. He had served under the Austrian Crown Prince and had been aide to Kitchener of Khartoum. He had gone into Egypt when Kitchener was there as a lowly subaltern. For twelve years he was in a prison of the fanatical Mahdi, and the wild Dervish tribes who threw back, for the first time in centuries, the ever advancing fran- flers of civilization. Escaping from the clutches of the barbarians he won the cpportunity of participating in that remarkable march across the desert and the wonderful campaign along the upper reaches of the Nile which had brought civilization back to the Sudan and won for Kitchener his first great fame, He came to Stockholm from Vienna OUCH!

Hughes. * The National Hughe: Alliance unannounced and to all intents and purposes “incog.” There are few who recognized him as Rudolph Carl von Slatin, baron of the Austrian Empire, Pasha of Egypt, lieutenant general of the Egyptlan army, major general of | the British army, and six times the recipient of the coveted British arders, from Companion of the Bath to | Knight Grand Cross of the Royal Vic- torian Order, all won by distinguished service. He was inspector general of the Egyptian forces under General Sir Francis Wingate when the crash of war in 1914 brought a new crisis ir his already eventful life. | Love for Austria Strong. | When the parting of the ways came ir 1914 Slatin found his love for Austria was still strong although most of his life had been devoted to Britain and her wards in Egypt. He had be- come essentially a part of the English military machine. But he could not fight against his fatherland, nor could he serve In any way against the country which had meant sa much to him and which had lavished honors | upon him. { So Slatin regretfully met the issue. He resigned his English and Egyptian commissions, sheathed the sword which had been part of his very life, and passed into comparative security in the very midst of war. Slatan felt, | however, there was one service he could render with all propriety. He returned to Vienna attached himself to the Austrian Red Cross and now js doing all he can to better the con- dition of prisoners of war, not alone in his own country but as part of a plan to bring about recipracal agree- ments among all the nations in arms, Slatin suffered sufficiently himself as a prisoner in the Sudan to have the widest possible sympathy with any sort of captive. It so happens that this very unique personality of the war now has cqme into more or less direct relationship with America. His mission in Stock- holm was to meet here a representa- tive of the American embassy in Pe- trograd to discuss further means of relief for the hundreds of thousands of Austrian civilians interned in vari- ous sections of the big northern em- pire. The Austrian government, he said, was ready and anxious to co- operate in any possible way ta better the condition of prisoners generally and would gladly reciprocate for any- thing Russia might do. He also ex- pressed the appreciation of the Aus- trian government for the relief work already accomplished under the direc- tion of the American embassy at Petrograd. Slatin, who devoted his life to militarism, speaks now of war cnly from the standpoint of humanity. “I would like so much to be able to say when it is all over that I had done something to help the sufferers in this tremendous war,’” he said somewhat wistfully to a correspondent of the Associated Press, Not Much Hate in Austrians, “We Austrians, you added rather significantly, “have not know,” he ttractive Upholstered Our extensive stock of Upholstered Furniture is made up of pieces designed to provide comfort and to add to the attractiveness of the home.

I think a great deal of the ill-feeling in the war has been engendered by the exaggerations and bitter words printed constantly in the belligerent press. The newspapers do not give the people a chance for sober thought or reflec- tion. But I am nat one of those who believe that hatred, thus fostered, will continue long after peace is declared. ‘‘As one of the saftening or amelio- rating influences likely to hasten a return of good feeling, I believe that kindly treatment of prisoners of war is of paramout impartance. I should also like to see a policy of exchange adopted as far as possible. In this way men who had been well treated, would return to their native land and bring word to the people at home that perhaps the enemy was not so black as he had been painted afte 2ll, that he had some Kkindly traits, was a human being and that the world might still be large enough for all of us to live in. “I do not believe we can go on fighting forever—I mean either at arms or through a so-called boycott. I do not believe the warld at large will approve boycott methods. I do not believe this spirit of enmity can last. It must burn itself out in its cwn fire. Take in the se of vour own American Civil war. What struggle between man and man could have been more bitter than that? Take the Fashoda incident between France and England. People are quick to forget and perhaps to for- give, if only they have the chance ta do [ “We believe Russia is doing the test she can for our prisoners,” he said, “but the task at times has been too great for the facilities at her dis- posal. There is especially the matter of medical supplies and proper cloth- ing. And then, too, one must consider in the treatment of prisoners their former environment and mode of liv- ing. We thinK we rather spail our soldiers in Austria as a rule, so that cur prisoners even though treated with the identical consideration shown a Russian soldier in his own barracks, will feel certain undeniable hardships. On the other hand Eng- land makes mare of a fuss over her soldiers than we do over ours, a British Tommy Atkins In an Austrian camp would feel as badly treated as scme of our men do in Russia.

What a pitiful fate it was. If ever saldier deserved a better death it was the Kitchener I knew at Khartoum.” “I lunched with Kitchener,” Slatin, “‘as late as the eighteenth of July—just a few days before the war fell upon us. Yes, we spoke of the Furopean situation at the time, but neither of us dreamed what it all would mean. “Kitchener had a wonderful gift as an organizer and executive. I have ing an engineer that helped him to this trait. y “Some of our newspapers in Austria ccmmented rather flippantly upon his death, but that was not right ana it did not reflect the general sentiment of our people. That is what I mean when I say the partisan newspapers are doing so much to engender hatred and bitterness, and not giving the reople themselves an opportunity for calm thought and deliberation.” mused often wondered if it was not his train- | AQGENTS FOR GLENWOOD RANGES /.
