Statement Too Strong, Maybe.-Miss
Jane Adams Is q great woman ana ID
respected by this country. Her work
In the interest Of humanity Is such
as to compel admiration and even
love. But Miss Addams recently made
statement, or was quoted as max
ing one, which the average man dis
counts, to some extent. She Is quoted
as saying that the soldiers OF England
and France and Germany are mace
drunk before bayonet charges. To ac-
cept this statement, one must eiIner
take the word drunk to mean less
than it ordinarily means, or must be
ignorant Of the effects which free IN
diligence in liquor has upon men.
There are some men who could put
up excellent fights drunk, but we be-
lieye the average drunk man Is TOO
bumfuddled in his head, and too much
balled up about the feet and legs TO
make an efficient fighter. man going
into a bayonet charge, or receiving one,
needs to have all his wits about him,
and also all his celerity. He wants
to see Just one man where there Is but
one, and wants to have an accurate
sense Of direction and location. a
really drunk man would lose the
keenness Of his oversight, the swift
ness Of movements and ABILITY 10

1t is possible that a little liquor would
dull a mans sense Of danger, without
lessening, apparently, his fighting ca
pacities. But to get the soldier drunk
get him truly soused-would make
him an easy mark, unless he were OF
the unnatural type Of man who be-
comes more belligerent, and more
skilled when liquor Is running them.
It must be that Miss Addams has been
misquoted; that she did not mean to
leave the impression that the soldiers
were made drunk. They are probably
just stimulated a little.-Greenviiie

to tho Fertilizer World.
The war isolation Of the little town
of Stassfurt in the province Of Sax
ony, Prussia, with its neighborhood
richly productive Of potash salts, has
caused more stir and annoyance in the
neutral world than the isolation Of
many larger and much more famous
places, says a bulletin issued by the
National Geographic society, which
tells of the work that has been done
by the United States Geological sur
vey toward the determination Of ade-
quate native sources Of this necessary
mineral.
Germany has been the worlds great
source Of potassium compounds used
in the preparation Of fertilizers and in
industrial processes. The production
Of these salts for world demand has
centered at Stassfurt, little town Of
10000 on the Bode river, 20 miles south
of Magdeburg. The United States
has been a very heavy taker Of the
German output, importing millions Of
dollars worth each year. While the
bulk Of the potash salts is employed
in the manufacture Of manure salts,
large quantities are consumed in the
soap, match, glass making, cloth-fi
ishing and pharmaceutical industries.

Of last years, the value Is said to

even at the beginning Of the possi-
bilities in the cottonseed. A few
summers ago the Observer stood
sponsor for an article Of ice cream
made from cottonseed oil and for
time it had a popular run as a novelty.
The market value Of cottonseed oil,
however, made the cotton oil Ice cream
rather an expensive experiment. NOW
has come the cotton oil candy. The
Southern Cotton Oil company has been
distributing samples Of this candy
among the farmers at the various
meetings throughout the country, but
like the ice cream, the cotton oil
candy will hardly become CONNER
cial article by reason Of the fact that
the oil Is too valuable for other pur-
poses. The cotton oil candy Is made

ENGLAND CALLED TO TIME
Washington Sends Note that is to
the Point.

The state department on Saturday
gave out a summary Of note it has
sent to England, informing that gov
ernment that it will uphold the right
of American trade.
The note is a firm, fiat denial Of
England's assumed right to interfere
with American commerce to an extent
not countenanced by the recognized
rules Of international law. 1t Is
vigorous statement that this govern
ment cannot permit its commerce to
be treated according to the autocratic
regulations Of British order in council
and various municipal DEGREES.
The effect Of the note is to shift the
shadow Of a real international crisis
from the affairs Of the United States
and Germany to the issues between
the United States and Great Britain.
1t is evident that Germany has won
the first ground Of her demand that
as 1.-The freedom Of the seas underlies
the questions at issue between the
United States and Germany, this gov
ernment must take up that subject
with Great Britain. Furthermore, 1t
is indirect mediation between Germany
and England. And, finally, it demon
strates the realization by the admin
istration that it can no longer main
tain an attitude of aggressive di-
plomacy against Germany and continue
to let the case against England slum-
ber.
Summary of Note.
The summary Of the note is as fol-
lows:
I'm view Of differences which are
understood to exist between the two
governments as to the principle OF
law applicable in prize court proceed
ings in cases involving American
shipping, to avoid any misunderstanding
ing as to the attitude Of the United
States in regard to such process the
government Of the United States in
forms the British government that IN
so far as the interests Of American
citizens are concerned, it will insist
upon their rights under the principles
and rules Of international law as hith.
erto established, governing neutral
trade in time Of war without limitation
or impairment by orders in council or
other municipal legislation by the
British government and will not recog-
nize validity Of prize court passages
taken under restraints imposed by
British municipal law in derogation
of the rights Of American citizens un-
der international law"

HOW TO CLEAR
away P|MPLES

Battle your face for several minutes
with resinol soap and hot water, then
apply little resinol ointment very
gently. Let this stay on ten minutes,
and wash off with resinol soap and
more hot water, finishing with a dash
of cold water to close the pores. Do
this once or twice day, and you will
be astonished to find how quickly the
healing resinol medication soothes and
cleanses the pores, removes pimples and
tlackheads, and leaves the complexion
clear and velvety.
Resinol ointment and resinol soap
stop itching instantly and speedily
heal skin humors, sores, burns, wounds
and chatting. Sold by all druggists.

SOAP FOR BABY,s TENDER SKIN

The regular use of resinol soap is
usually enough to prevent those dis
tressing rashes and chafings to which
most babies are subject. This is 80,
first, because resinol soap is absolutely
pure and free from harsh alkali, and
second, because it contains the resinol
medication, on which so many physi.
clans rely for skin troubles.
