Keen Your Lungs Strong

This advice is doubly important with
the knowledge that every three minutes
some one in the United States succnmbs

realize they are afflicted until it is too late.
It is after colds or sickness, from over
work, confining duties or when general
weakness exists that -tubercular germs
thrive because the resistive powers of
the body are weakened.
Only with fresh air, sunshine and
abundant rich blood can one hope to
arrest their progress, and the concen-
trated fats in Scott's Emulsion furnish
fuel for rich blood, and its rare nourish-
ment helps strengthen the lungs while
it builds up the forces.
If you work indoors, tire easily, feel

GUIDE BELIEVED TO HAVE
LED BRITISH INTO HOLLAND

London, Oct. 14.-Sublieutensnt
Dukinfeld, of Birkenhead, who was
with the naval brigade engaged in the
defense of Antwerp, has returned home
with others. He was two days in the
trenches. The entire kits of several
men were burnt by shells. While stand
ing near Lieutenant Dukinfeld ten
men of the London division were killed
by shell before the retreat. All the
British stores were destroyed.
Men marched away from the trench
es at night, 200 of them entering
Dutch territory circumstance which
could not be accounted for, he said, ex-
cept by the treachery of a guide. Lieu
tenant CORVALLIS West escaped unin.

among naval officers; those, however, in
charge of marines suffered.

DEFENDS CHURCHILL AGAINST

London, Oct. IA, $40 A. M.-The
daily Mail s" military correspondent
replies in effect to-day to the 'Morn

Winston Spencer Churchill First Lord
of the Admiralty, for sending too small
an English force to Antwerp.
'Under the circumst stances, says the
correspondent, ''the act was not only
justified, but one of brave and honor.
able necessity. To have refused to go
to the aid of the beleaguered garrison
when asked to do so. would have been
an act of selfish cowardce of which no
British minister would be capable. Late
we may have been, but better late than
never. The claims of strategy must

Finn and Quay Clash

Philadelphia, Oct. 14-William Finn
had sharp exchange of verbal shot
shot, with his former co-worker under
the sign of the "Bull Moose Richard
r. Quay, in the lobby of the Bellevue
Stratford Hotel last night. Then he
was content that it should be inferred
that he was doing all in his power to
bring about what was regarded as po-
litically impossible, the withdrawal of
Representative Palmer in favor of Gift
ford Pinchot.
The points in the foregoing, the
withdrawal and the "hot shotn are
related because of the fact that it was
in the course Of his encounter with the
son of the late Senator Quay that Finn
gave an intimation of his movements
in the direction of obtaining fusion
against Senator Penrose.
Mr.. Quay and Mr.. Finn are both of
Pittsburgh. Until recently, when Quay
denounced Finn as political "tra.
der,' Quay was one Of the former Sen.
ator' g chief lieutenants in the Washing.
ton party. Their meeting last night was
the first since Quay renounced his po-
litical allegiance to the Washington
party chieftain.
Quay told Finn to his face what he
has been saying about him in state
ments to the public. Retort followed re-
tort. And yet each was satisfied at
the close to describe it all as "pleas-
antry.."
But in the course of this "pleasant-
ry," Finn told Quay, according to the
latter, that he thought Mr.. Palmer
would withdraw as the Democratic
nominee for United States Senator, and
so perfect fusion between the Demo
cratic and Washington parties.
