Keep Your Lungs Streng

This advice 10 doubly important with
the knowledge that every three minutes
some one III the United States succumbs
to consumption and many refuse to
realize they are afflicted until it is too late.
II is after colds or sickness, from over
work, combining duties or when general
weakness exists that tubercular germs
thrive because the resistiye powers OF
the body are weakened.
Only with fresh air, sunshine and
abundant rich blood can one hope to
arrest their progress, and the concen-
trated fats in SCOTS Emulsion furnish
fuel for rich blood, and its rare nourish-
ment helps strengthen the lungs while
it builds up the forces.
If you work indoors, tire easily. feel
languid or rundown Scott's Emulsion is
the most strengthening food-medicine
known and is free from alcohol or stupe-
flying drugs. Avoid substitutes.

win momentary victory on the battle
field. II has gone back to the ques-
tion of the victories of peace-the
victory Of the counting house. the
corporation office. the shop, Of COM
merce in all its extent and varied as
poets. If liquor makes poor SOL
der, a poor battalion or regiment,
how much more easily does it make a
poor fighter in the business ranks ?
How much more will 1t deplete and
injure the effectiveness of the great
commercial army which at last en-
bodies the very life of the nation?
Moral aspects there are, 1t is true,
and they have their great weight.
But these at last, must be determined
and applied by the Individual. 1t is
evidence of undermining the life of
the nation itself, that has produced
the awakening.
The European war has shown more
than anything else that there is no
place for booze in national develop
ment and growth; and upon the evil
dence its banishment has been de-
creed. The horrible bloodshed Of
which this war has been productive
is deplored of all nations and all peo-
pies But If the outcome of it shall
be the Punishment Of the bottle, it
will have rendered so great a SER
vice to humanity that the blood will
not have been spilled in vain.

actly as the allies are trying to
bottle up Germany. IF the Ger
mans had an effective block
ade against English commerce
Germany would not want the
United States to use the mailed
fist to see that American ship
ments were allowed to go
through.
1t is not of vital consequence
10 this natien whether or not
American shipments are per-
mitted to certain European ma
tons. The issue is more press
ing on the purchasing nation
than upon US. Let the purchas.
er nation or nations deal with
those who interrupt their COM
merce. In saying it is up to
this country to make the Brit
ish allow American shipments
to Germany the Berlin govern
ment is unreasonable for it is
nothing more nor less than a
that Uncle Sam be a.
catspaw to rake German chest
nuts from the English fire.
The Washington government
is justified in refusing to get.
this country into any such pre-
dicament. Our logical atti-
tude is that the United States
will sell goods to those who
have the price with which to
pay but we do not guarantee
delivery in such times as these,
though we will do all we can
to facilitate matters along that
line.
In taking this course PreSi-
dent Wilson simply follows the
dictates of common sense and
he will have the support of the
American public despite the
carpings of a few newspapers
that imagine they are in duty
bound to, slur the administra-
ton at every opportunity.

THE BANISHMENT OF
BOOZE.

(From the Atlanta constitutional
Rent by strife that is reddening its
rivers with blood, Europe presents,

and even one-time gay France, are

The liquor problem was brought
home to emperors and kings and
statesmen when they studied the

evidence stood out in bold relief be-
fore them. France took the prelim-
mary step in the ban put upon abb

giving up millions of revenue in the
abolition OF vodka and the closing OF
the saloons. Germany and Austria
are drawing the reins tighter upon
the liquor traffic, while in England,

as of dispatches of a semi-official ma
ture from Petrograd, Paris, Berlin,
Vienna, Sofia. Athens, Cairo, London,
Rome and Venice make it clear that
the European situation is about as
follows:
In the west, the allies have advanc-
ed 27 kilometers and the Germans
26 IL kilometers. The allies are
preparing to begin a general often
sive which cannot fail to drive the
Germans back across the Rhine and
the Germans are soon to begin a con-
certed attack which will carry them
to Paris. Both sides are full of en-
thusiasm and absolutely confident of
victory and each is discouraged and
ready to quit
In the east the Russians have an
initiated the Austrians and the
Austrians have hurled back the Rus
slams. The Russian troops are flush
ed with victory and eagerly looking
for the shortest route home. while
the Germans have defeated the Rus
SLAMS in Poland and are in full re-
treat as a consequence Of the disas-
trous victories.
In Turkey, Constantinole is about
to fall and the demoralized Turks are
awaiting events with calm confidence
in their ultimate victory. The Brit
ish and French warships have de-
stroved the Dardanelles Notifications
without loss to their squadrons and
have temporarily retired from the
scene of action until reinforcements
can replace the battleships sunk by
the fire Of the forts, which are prac-
tically undamaged after their destruc-
tion.
Roumania Is about to enter the war
and has irrevocably decided to stay
out of it. Italy will begin hostilities
in few days, it being the final de-
cision of her government that she
must remain neutral to the end.
Greece will join the allies next week
when the Greek cabinet will announce
its unalterable purpose to take no
part in the quarrel, Holland will
declare war upon Germany as re-
suit Of Dutch steamers being torpe-
doed by German submarines before
they could be sunk by British floating
mines
The war will end in June owing to
scarcity Of flour and potatoes IN
Germany and the German harvests
are so promising that not the slight
est uneasiness is felt in Germany
over the prospect of food supply.
Providence has favored both sides
with weather conditions peculiarly
unfavorable TO the operations Of the
other.
1t is indeed gratifying after eight
months Of indiscriminate marching,
fighting and negotiating to be able
to form such a clear and comprehen-
slve conception of the situation In
Europe. in spite of the rigid censor
ship over news dispatches.

m n voting to make use of the
county bonding law the
good roads association act
ed wisely. 1t is the only way
through which real results can
be obtained.
1t would be impossible to
carry out any big highway
work with regular road funds.
Even if a very high road tax
should be imposed by the coun-
ty court it would provide only
partially for the county's
needs. There would then in
sue a squabble as to which Sec
tion should get the money and
sectional squabbles do not aid
the good roads movement.
There are further reasons
why the use of regular tax
money is impractical. The levy
for this year is already made
and it will be a year before an
other levy can be made. Thus
valuable time would be lost
were that course to be taken.
Another reason why the
bonding plan is better than the
regular tax plan is found in the
fact the burden will be distrib-
uted over many years time and
will be easily borne. This fea-
ture may not be of great conse-
quence to people in the wheat
belt where the land has long
been productive. But it is OF
consequence to people in the ir-
rigated district in the west end
of the county and to many ir-
rigation farmers in the east
end. There are hundreds of
such settlers who are just get
ting their land to producing.
They do not want higher taxes
now. They will be more able
to meet tax payments in the
future than at present.
Through a bond issue COM
prehensive good roads cam
paign fair and satisfactory to
all sections can be carried out.
The bonding plan will provide
a hard surface road to the river
and it is what must be built if
freight reductions are to be Sc
cured. The course taken by
the newly formed good roads
association leads to good roads
and lower freight rates. 1t
means business and that is the
only way to take up the sub
iect

LOCAL BUSINESSMEN WANT
POST LIGHTS KEPT BY CITY
PETITION WILL BE PRESENTED
PROBABLY AT NEXT MEET
ING OF COUNCIL.

The part that electricity plays In
making a city attractive by night
was demonstrated Saturday night
when practically all of the merchants
who maintain ornamental post lights
in front Of their stores shut off the
current The effect Of dlmness and
darkness was designed to show the
eouncilmen Of the city what to ex-
pect in the event that petition
asking for the maintenance Of post
lights by the city is turned down.
Probably at the next meeting OF the
council the petition, literally signed
by business men, win be presented
for the consideration OF the council.
At present such ornamental poles as
are on the streets are owned by the
merchants and are maintained by
them at cost Of sass per pole OF
three lights, After paying for two
years for maintaining the lights. the
merchants have come to the conclu-
sion that it is the eity's duty to ses
that the principal streets are proper
~ lighted and they will so hold iu
their position.
At present the city maintains an
arc light at each Intersection on tne
main streets but without the help Of
privately owned lights, the illumina-
tion would be very poor. The bust
ness men will ask that four orna
mental posts to the block be main
tained on each side OF the street in
tine business district Most Of thoss
who now have such posts declare
they win donate those they have to
the city. thus saving them the initial
cost of $65 each. At present there Is
no uniformity in the arrangement OF
the posts. one block being brilliantly
Illuminated and the next having but
little light. This system would be
eliminated II the petition of the mer-
chants is granted.
Many residents as well as strangers
in the city remarked how poorly
lighted the streets were on SATURDAY.
evening and the business men felt
that the appearance of the streets
with only the arc lights will be one
of their strongest arguments.

WE SELL BUT DON'T DE-
LIVER.

TIT is evident the German
protest as to our action re-
garding shipments Of food
stuffs to Germany is chiefly di-
plomatic talk. Certainly there
is no ground for anything more
than a perfunctory complaint.
The United States is treating
all nations exactly alike. We
will sell any of them anything
they want but the proposition
Of getting the goods to their
destination is up to the pur-
chaser.
We sell foodstuffs and war
munitions to the allies. If the
Germans don't like it let them
raid the seas and stop the traf-
fic. We sell foodstuffs and
war munitions to the Germans
and the English have the priv
ilege of stopping such COM
merce if they can.
All the world knows that if
the Germans could do so they
would bottle up the allies ex-
