Training Citizens for Defense

Nothing has contributed so much to arouse q
live sense of patriotic duty in the American cit-
zen as the European war; 1t has brought to the
forefront the necessity of American defenses and
forced citizens to see how inadequate are our
means of repeng foe. The Chicago Tribune,
which throughout the last year has maintained
a sane attitude on the problems arising between
the United States and foreign countries, points
out what it believed to be necessity now, name
ly compulsory military training. The average
American may not agree with the view of the
Tribune at first glance, but perusal of the edi-
torial, even one does not accept the premise will
at least contribute wholesome food for re-
Election. The article follows:
What is good for 1000 Americans at Platts-
burgh, N. Y, would be good for 100000 or more
Americans. What is good for 1000 for one
month would be better for 100000 for year.
We place highest in the citizenship of the
country the who when the country needs
them will sacrifice family, happiness, business,
health, or life for the country. We put lowest in
our conception of citizenship the duty of being
able to make this sacrifice effective.
We make much of Memorial day, but it does
not suggest that other men may have to do what
we honor the G. A. R. for doing. We profess not
to be afraid Of serving in the army of the United
States if an army were needed, but we afraid
of fitting ourselves to be Of any value to an army
if it were needed.
We profess not to be afraid of military

its enforcement by such forms of non
intercourse and other non-military
sanctions as may be most effective,
therefore, be it
Resolved, That we urge, as an &C
ton which can now be taken towards
securing these ends, and as an i'm
portant step towards the establish
ment of a world government and a
more lasting peace, that the govern
ment of the United States convoke a
conference of such neutral nations as
it may be deemed practical to in
clude, tn consider what action they
can take to protect and advance their
common interests, and the interests of
humanity, justice and peace, and be
it further
Resolved, That copies of these res
olutions be sent by this conference,
representing all bodies of Friends in
America, to President Wilson, to the
members of congress, and to the mem
bers of the governing board of the
Pan-American Union at Washington.

in the same town during their engage
ment. She read each note carefully
now. She did not know why she did
this. unless it was to torture herself.
And as she read, she seemed to hear
Johns voice as it had sounded when
he used OF tell her of his love, she re-
membered how sure he and she had
been that nothing could ever come be-
tween them. She found her eyes
growing dim, and, when the last word
was read, she bowed her head upon
the heap of letters and began to cry.
No matter what John had done she
knew now that she loved him with
her whole heart. And she had lost
him! AS on the night on which he had
come home drunk, she now sobbed
his name softly. ooh, John! joint"
she repeated over and overt do love

So close did his presence seem that
she did not scream when suddenly she
felt his arms about her and heard him
speaking her name, just as he used to
speak it when they were first mar
ried.
Isabel, darling!" he murmured.
Don't cry, dear. l know you love me
and you know that love you-dear-
ly!"
Starting to her feet, she pushed him
from her that she might look into his
eyes. why are you here?" she asked.
The party-Adelaide simmons
He interrupted her with tender
laugh. she is not Adelaide Simmons
any longer he said. ''She was mar
ried an hour ago to Henry Dennis.
That was the surprise she had in store
for all Of us
And you didn't know" she gasped.
mo, l didn't even suspect that she
was engaged l did know that she was
settling her business affairs-for she
had asked me to help her about them,
especially as she is going away to
live"
Where is she now?" Isabel ques-
toned eagerly.
AT the wedding supper, of course.
At midnight she and Dennis start for
California"
But what made you come home so
early?" she asked. Her heart felt
strangely light and she had sensation
akin to sashfulness as her eyes met
his. How she had misjudged him!
Because l wanted TO be with my
little wife, he told her. 81 have given

THIN FOLKS WHO
WOULD BE FAT
Increase in Weight Ten Pounds or
More.
A PHYSICIANS ADVICE.

'I'd certainly give most anything to
be able to fat up few pounds and
stay that way" declares every excess
sively thin man or woman. Such re-
suit is not impossible, despite past
failures. Thin people are victims OF
mal-nutrition, condition which pre-
vents the fatty elements of food from
being taken up by the blood as they
are when the powers of nutrition are
normal. Instead of getting into the
blood, all the fat and flesh producing
elements stay in the intestines until
they pass from the body as waste.
To correct this condition and to
produce healthy normal amount of
fat the nutritive processes must be
artificially. supplied with the power
which nature has denied them. This
can best be accomplished by eating a
Sargol tablet with every meal Sargol
is a scientific combination of six of
the best Strengthening, fat-producing
elements known to the medical pro-
fesslon. Taken with meals, it mixes
with the food and turns the sugars
and starches into rich. ripe nourish-
ment for the tissues and blood and its
rapid effect is remarkable. Reported
gains OF from ten to twenty-five
pounds in single month are by no
means lnfrequent. Yet it's action is
perfectly natural and absolutely harm
less. Sargol is sold by Leo H. Fihe,
Richmond, and other good druggists
everywhere and every package con-
tains a guarantee of weight increase
or money back.
Charlottesville Sargol has pro-
duced remarkable results in the treat
ment of nervous indigestion and gen
eral stomach disorders, it should not.
owing to it's remarkable flesh produc-
ing effect, be used by those who are
not willing to increase their weight

VERMONT OFFERS CHEAP SUMMED,
HOMES,

Connecticut is now advertising with
pride the taking of the Nutmeg States
last aba ndoned farm" Once upon a
time the abandoned farm was hailed as
a disgrace and reproach to any state,
but that class Of realty seems to have
served splendid purpose to attract sum
mer residents on the plea that a summer
home could be purchased cheap.
Vermonters of tho older generation Will
recall the hullahalloo raised throughout
our commonwealth when the late Col.
A r. Valentine Of Bennington. as com
missioner Of immigration. gave wide pub
licitv to Vermont's abandoned farms in
connection with the project to peopl"
them with Swedcs. That project did not
succeed entirely and probably it is for
tunate that this was the case, for many
neglected spots in the Green Mountain
State are now occupied by the summer
homes of prosperous citizens of other
States who are bringing OF their wealth
to Vermont We never had many farms
worthy of the name really abandoned.
but We still have cheap summer homes.
