is reluctant to contribute men#to the
Balkan campaign as long as the Teu-
tons and Bulgarians keep out of Al
bania. France wants to reserve her
soldiers for the defense Of French
territory and probably prefers that
the British troops be concentrated
along the west front rather than in
the Balkans.
France does not care to oppose;
Russia too openly. A Slav debacle
would be a severe blow for the French
people who have invested their money,
SO heavily in Russia.
None Of the allied powers in fact
can oppose Russia with an entirely
easy mind, for, despite all agree
ments to the contrary, there must re-,
main a feeling that the czar may be
enticed into a separate peace, if an
opening is given to the many Ger
man influences at the Russian court.
A truly united policy acceptable to
all the Allies is, in fact, impossible.
The best possible result must be a
compromise leaving misgivings be-
hind, if not actual suspicion.

WHAT WILL THE
COMMON PEOPLE GET

Now that congress is again in ses-
sion, the question will arise in many
minds, "Where will the common peo-
pie get off,"
In other words, what legislation
will be passed for the betterment of
the people who do not ride around
in $4,000 automobiles and live in
million-dollar mansions with dozen
servants at their beck and call?
What will be done for the farmer,
and the merchanic, and the country
merchants, and the millions and mil
lions of people who life uprightly
and contribute to the wealth and i'm
portance of the nation?
Will this congress follow in the
footsteps of several of it's predeces-
sors and make class legislation, or
will the poor man be given a reason

Girls With Beautiful Faces
or Graceful Figures

American girls have a worldwide
reputation for beauty, but, at the same
time, there are girls in our cities who
possess neither beauty of face nor
form, because in these instances they
suffer from nervousness, the result Of
disorders of the womanly~ organism.
At regular intervals they suffer so
much that their strength leaves them !;
they are so Frustrated that it takes days
for them to recover their strength. Of
course, such periodic. distress has it's
bad effect on the nervous system. The
withered and drawn faces, the dark
circles and crows feet about the eyes,
the straight figure without those
curves which lend so much to feminine
beauty are. the unmistakable signs Of
womanly disorders. -. -.
When a girl becomes a woman, when
a woman becomes mother, when a
woman passes through the changes of
middle life, are the three periods of
life when health and strength are most
needed to withstand the pain and
distress often caused by severe organic
disturbances.
At these critical times, women are
best fortified by the use of DR.. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription, an old remedy
Of proved worth that keeps the entire
female system perfectly regulated and
in excellent condition.
Mothers, if your daughters are weak,
lack ambition, are troubled with head
aches, 1assitude and are pale and
sickly, Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip-
tion is just what they need to surely
bring the bloom of health to their
cheeks and make them strong and
healthy.
If you are a sufferer, if you daugh-
ter, mother, sister need help, get DR..
Pierce's Favorite Prescription in liquid
or tablet form. Then address DR.. Pierce,

Indications are accommodating that
the new general war council of the
Allies is meeting the common fate
of coalitions and is failing to give
satisfaction. Military and naval lead
ers, diplomats and politicians are
being called into the consultations at
Paris, but persistent kilograms, which
the French censor freely passes, sug-
gest that serious differences of ,opin-
ion have not been eliminated by
exhaustive discussion.
The war council in fact is proving
itself not to be a grand general staff
for the direction Of the war, but
rather an exchange bureau for exam
nations of policies At the present
moment the question of the advis-
ability of continuing the Balkan cam
paign is under examination. But the
discussion is not from, the point of
value of military strategy. The war
council is not determining how to de-
feat the Germans in southeastern
Europe. The debate is concerned in
reality with the individual policies
of the allied nations. ~
Russia, whose loss would be far
the greatest if the Teutons were to
become paramount in the Balkans,
wants the campaign to continue at
|all costs. Britain apparently now be-
lieves Egypt can best be defended
latter the Teutons and the Turks
have partly exhausted themselves in
the desert to the east of the Suez
canal. The British therefore seem
ingly do not want to send sufficient
army into the Balkans to check the
Teutons west of Constantinop1e. Italy
