Thrilling Fall
ofAviator Who
Loobed the Loop
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Mineola, n. Y, Aug. 21.-Albert
FileuX, Of New York city, an aviator,
fell 1000 feet in his monoplane to the
Hampstead aviation field today and
escaped with his life. He was badly
bruised and lacerated, but surgeons at
the Nassau hospital said that he was
suffering chiefly from shock and that
they thought he would live.
Fileux fell while looping-the-loo
He had completed the circle and the
nose of his aeroplane was pointed
straight for earth, preparatory to
making a long glide, when his engine
went dead. The machine fell like
plumnet. On-lookers watching the
flight, saw his frantic efforts to right
the aeroplane and when these failed,
saw him swing himself into the cock
pit of the machine so that he would
not be caught beneath the heavy en-
gine.
AS he climbed back his weight so
disturbed the balance of the mono
plane that instead Of falling nose
down, it turned when hundred feet
from the earth and hit the ground on
the front wheels. These collapsed and
the machine somersaulted. The han
gar attendants who rushed out expect
ing to pick up his mangled body
found him conscious and without
broken bones.

Wire is Silent
Between England
and Battle Zone
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

London, Aug. 21.-Telegraphic COM
munication between England and
Brussels was entirely interrupted to-
day and no dispatches were accepted
for any place in the Belgian provinces
of Limbourg, Liege, Namur, Luxem-
burg, Brabant or Antwerp except for
the city Of Antwerp.
Yesterday was about the date when,
according to the forecasts of their
own and many military writers in Eu-
rope, the German troops were due to
appear before the walls OF Paris.
According to French official advices,
it is the Germans intention to pass
their main army into France by the
Brussels road. The Germans them
selves are naturally silent, but there
is no reason to doubt they are quite
as well aware of the difficulties of this
route as are their opponents.
The Namur forts have not yet been
attacked, or rather, had not been at
the time of the latest advices.
On the German left where three
Austrian army corps are said to have
reinforced them, the battle is devel-
oping front Of nearly forty miles,
and, according to French statements,
nothing is heard from the German
side
An impenetrable curtain has been
drawn over the operations in the CEN
ter of the battle line, where the main
French army is cooperating in the
fighting.
The Russian advance in East Prus-
sia apparently stretches over front
of sixty miles between Stalluponten
and Lyck but the Russian invaders
have not yet gained much German
ground.
Little is heard of the Austrian op-
erations at present, but it is known
that Austrian contingents are moving
along the Rhine to meet the French
advance in Alsace.

HOW A MANS LIVER
DEFENDS HIS LIFE

The liver is usually a quiet, unassum-
ing organ and we do not think much
about it. It has, however, protective
functions that should command respect.
In the process of intestinal indigestion
there are set free what physicians and
scientists call "toxic bodies" in other
words poisons. Ii these poisons enterin-
to the circulation of the blood biliousness
or sick headache results.
Regularly the liver is able to destroy
these toxic bodies but ifitlags in its work
they quickly form in amounts excessive
enough to be troublesome. Headache,
constipation, dizziness, furred tongue,
wind on the stomach, bad complexion
are the means by which nature gives
warning that the liver needs help.
The remedy is to stimulate the liver by
the use of Pinklets, the gentle laxative
pills that do not grippe or purge but simply
assist nature. Harsh laxatives and salts
often do harm by aggravating the condi-
tons they are taken to correct. Pinklets,
taken regularly for time, really do cor
rect constipation.
Your own druggist can supply you with
Pinklcts or they will be sent by mail,
postpaid, by the DR.. Williams Medicine
Co., Schenectady, N. Y, at 25 cents per
bottle. Send for helpful pamphlet.

LEGATIONS with suggested remedies. Ly-
on Weyburn, the counsel for the commit
tee of the Boston Chamber of Commerce

ton Chamber of Commerce was interest

the chamber of commerce was interested
in building up this industry.
"We are trying to get evidence" said
Attorney Weyburn, ''of fair mental
picture of milk production in New Eng
land, and we are interested particularly
in the barn keeping of Is or 20 cows.
Edward G. Hudson of Winthrop testi-
fled that he kept IL cows and that he
sold the milk to the creamery. 1t costs
about 81 to keep COW. He was getting
a profit on the milk production, but not
enough for the money which he had in

the money which they receive.
George E. Macomber of Augusta testi-
fled that he kept c.ws but that he did
not think he made a profit from the milk
production.
Charles S. Pope of Manchester testi-
fed that he produced cream and made

his herd averages Is cows. He does not
intend to increase his herd. He both re-
tails and WHOLESALERS milk, getting seven
cents for wholesale and eight cents for

A RETURN TO THE HILLS.

1.-THE following poem, composed by former
camden woman, was written while she was
pending a few weeks there last summer al
he home of Mr.. and Mrs. E S. Stahl
Back to the shining Camden Hills.
Bright with the morning of nv days,
l come as one whom memory wills
To sing in tears a hymn of praise.
Again before my wistful eyes
Mountain and sea reflect the glow
Of summers ever-changing skies,
And all the lights of long ago.
Hither turned in love and fear;
Remembering that magic dawn,
| said, my heart must sorrow here
For sunrise-joy forever gone"
But to the hills look, and there
Behold what childhood could not see,
Almighty patience, wisdom. care,
Blessing those heights and shetering me.
The same fair hill;,-yet not the same
knew that mountain wall of old,
Blasted and bare and swept by flame,
Its verdure stark. it's beauty cold
But now through all the years between
Which Providence brims up and fills,
The after tides of living green
Have clothed the hills, the Camden Hills.
So. as this awful flame of wrath
Leaps up today in savage mood,
dare to dream that God still hath
For earth His afterward of good;
Beauty for ashes. JOY for woe,
Peace on the smoking fields of strife;
And every nation yet shall know
The healing of the Tree of Life.
Behind the shadowy hills that loom
Mystic and dark with evening blue,
A splendor scars athwart the gloom
Richer than morning ever knew.
The shine of stars is on the deep:
Clear darkness all the valley fills;
A child, once more, fall asleep,
Beneath the steadfast Camden Hills

dressing an audience composed Of stock
raisers from practically every State in

Houston of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture declared the short

culture Mr. Houston approved the plan
OF cattle raising on large ranches and de-
clared that no effort would be spared by
the Federal Government in further in
creasing production from this source, but
insisted that tie proper solution of
this problem depended on an increased
interest in livestock raising by farmers
and in more systematic control and
cradle ion of hog cholera, cattle tick and
tuberculosis.
Figures were quoted from Government
reports showing that the production Of
in the United States during the past IA
years had fallen off 5000, 900, 900 pounds,
and that the population of the nation
during this time had increaed $4,000, 900.

The problem that confronts the farm

: Agriculture has gone through two
thousand years of evolution and is still in

Over production is the stumbling block,

1t is the duty of every farmer to see
that his wife is supplied with every

To eliminate waste and inefficiency in

close touch with market conditions.
The problem of marketing is the big
