ARMIES WAITING
 SUMMER


 LONDON, Jan. 12.-The great armies battling in the Western and Eagtern arenas of the war are by all accounts swapping op- erations. Fierce trench attacks continue to be made by both sides and the situation today is about the same as on January l, when the battle lines seemed to be stationary.
 Everywhere in the field the disposition seems to be to await the coming of spring, when, with fresh armies thrown into the lists events promise to move more quickly.
 Great Britain is sending a thousand men to France every week, and according to today's reports from Berlin, Germany is fully aware of British move ments and is making great mili- tary preparations for g counter movement.

NOT enough CHILDREN

ever receive the proper balance Of food
to sufficiently nourish both body and
brain during the growing period when
natures demands are greater than in
mature life. This is shown in so many
pale faces, lean bodies, frequent colds,
and lack of ambition.
For all such children we say with
nnmistakable earnestness: They need
Scott's Emulsion, and need it now. It
possesses in concentrated form the very

SPRING MEDICINE.
How to Cure ad to Avoid the Usual
Spring Disorders.

ny LII IL DdnlClo.
Spring is the time for rejuvination
after the long winter 1t is the sea-
son OF renewed vigor and activity
throughout the animal and vegetable
world. Everyone should have the
spring spirit, should partake of the
activity everywhere in nature. The
man who is rundown in the spring or
has spring fever is "out of tune" with
nature
During the winter most persons eat
considerable heavy food; even more
meat, fats, bread and potatoes than
the cold weather requires. AS the
winter draws to close 1t finds the
body more or less overloaded with
food poisons from unused food, and
the vital organs more or less over
worked as result of handling the
heavy diet needed in cold weather
Furthermore, as warm weather takes
he place of cold weather many peo-
rle fail to leave off their winter diet
but continue it over into the spring
months when the warm weather
nakes it impossible for the body to
lrn up the heavy food necessary to
warm during the winter and
or diet in spring fills the body

organs when they should be hav-
spring half-holiday In this way
5 bf ought about either directly or in
directly most of our spring disorders,
from spring fever to the serious dis
eases
SPRING fever. is an insignificant dis
order, but it means much the man
with spring fever is overlooking his
body with. food and getting ready for
a spring or summer disease, or is
wearing out his organs and getting
ready to die young. Spring fever and
the serious spring disorders are tc be
avoided by cutting down the heavy
food as warm weather comes on, and
the early green yegeta
bles. When you feel particularly
lifeless, miss a meal entirely, or take
no food but fruit for day In the
spring, discard the heavy underwear
and take a sponge bath every day;
throw the windows open for part
of the day at least and let the spring
air permeate the house; get out of
doors and get some exercise; if pos
sible, work in the ground.

FEDERAL INDUSTRIAL
COMMISSION
By Peter Radford.

The recent investigation of the
United States Commission of Indus
trial Relations brought together the
extremes of society and has given the
public an opportunity to view the rep
resentatives of distinct classes, side
by side, and to study their views in
parallel columns.
Capital and labor have always been
glazing at each other over CULTS of
misunderstanding and if the Federal
Industrial Commission attempts to
bridge the chasm, it will render the
public distinct service.
The farmer has been sitting on the
fence watching capital and labor fight
for many years and incidentally furn-
ishing the sinews of war and it is
quite gratifying to find them talking
with, instead of about, each other
When honest men smile and look into
each others souls, it always makes
the world better and far more salts

bears the burden of conflict, than
resolutions, speeches or pamphlets
containing charges and counter
charges.
The love for justice makes the
whole world kin. Understanding is an
arbiter far more powerful than the
mandates of government, for there is
no authority quite so commanding as
an honest conscience; there is no de-
cree quite SO binding as that of the
Supreme Court Of Common Sense and
no sheriff can keep the peace quite so
perfect as Understanding.
We suppose the time will never
come when capital and labor will not
be occasionally blinded by the light
ming flashes of avarice or frightened
by the thunder peals of discomfort.
But Understanding is a Prince of
Peace that ever holds out the olive
branch to men who want to do right.
A mans income is always a sacred
thing for in it are the hope, ambition
and opportunity of himself, and fam
lily, but there is nothing in human
heart quite so divine as Justice and
Understanding is its handmaiden.

THE BATTLE Of
THE TIRES

agricultural and Commercial Press Servicel
1t is interesting to watch the forces
Of civilization battling for supremacy.
The struggle now going on between the
rubber and the iron tire promises to
be the liveliest contest of the Tween
tieth Century.
there are no war correspondents TO
write vivid descriptions of the con-
fiict but the results are more far
reaching to present and future gen.
erations than the war of Europe.
The rubber tire has been maneuver-
ing for point of attack for several
years and has captured few unim-
portant positions in traffic, but it has
now pitched a decisive battle with
its iron competitor by hurting a mil
lion 'jitneys" at the street railways
and the battle is raging from ocean
to ocean. Upon the result of the
struggle depends the future of the
rubber tire. If it is compelled to re-
treat, its doom is sealed, but if it wins
the battle it will revolutionize the
transportation methods of this nation.
If the rubber tire conquers the
street traffic its next struggle is with
the railroads of the country, and then
the greatest battle between economic
forces ever fought out on the face
of this earth is on, for iron is the I'M
disputed master in transportation, and
is fortified behind billions of dollars.
and millions of men,
Stephenson applied the steel tire
to an iron rail in 1914, but it was 1869
before the golden spike was driven
at Promontory Point, which bound
the country together with bands of
steel. 1t took the iron tire fifty-five
years to creep from ocean to ocean,
but the rubber tire while warm from
the creative mind of the inventive
genius sped across the continent like
an arrow shot from the bow of Ulys-
ses. The roadbed was already pre-
pared and therein lies the power of
the rubber tire over that of iron, for
government builds and maintains the
public highway.
But iron is stubborn metal and
it has mastered every wheel that
turns; has fought battles with every
element above and beneath the earth |
and has never tasted the wormwood |
of defeat. and when rubber hurls its
full force against this monarch of |
the Mineral Kingdom, it may rebound |
to the factory stunned beyond recov-
cry.
The rubber tire first made its ap-
pearance on the bicycle, but it proved /
a frivolous servant and was dismissed |
for incompetency. 1t has always been
too much inclined to revel in luxury
to be taken seriously as a utility ma
chine and its reputation is not one to
inspire confidence in heavy traffic
performance.
But to those who care to watt into
dreamland, it is enchanting to note
that there will be a marvellous differ
ence between a rubber and an iron
age. The rubber tire will scatter the
cities throughout the valleys for with
at every mans door,
why a city? 1t will traverse the con-
tinent with a net work of Macadam
as beautiful as the boule-
ward built by Napoleon. 1t will par
alyze. the law making bodies of this
nation for how could the legislatures
run without the railroads to operate

NeishborIy Love Essential.

If religion pervades and colors the
whole life then ours is serious bust
ness, for it will let no corner of the
world escape its influence. The sooner
we learn that Christianity is not a
thing to be practiced in a corner the
better for the world. The question of
the eighteenth century, touching Chris
tianity, was, Can it be made to square
with the human reason? OF the nine
teenth, Can it be made to square with
the results of scientific research? OF
the twentieth, What can 1t do? We
must learn to enforce not only love OF
God, whom we cannot see, but love to
our neighbors, with whom we are living
in constant contact. Neither without
the other is Christianity whatever else
it may be. Everything that interests
his neighbors must interest him, If he
is a genuine follower of the Christ.
1t is the mission of the church-the
rural as we'll as the city-to evange-
lie the whole world. to train to the
highest degree of efficiency those
whom it evangelizes and to seek to
make the spirit of Jesus the absolute
rule in all human relations.
