GREECE THREATS
 CAUSE ANXIETY
THE ALLIES DEMAND THAT SHE SQUARELY DEFINE HER
 ATTITUDE.
THRONE MAY BE THREATENED
Germans Are Said to Have Offered As surance of Protection and Sup port in Effort to Win
 Constantine.

Eondon.-The intimation of the Greek government that any allied troops seeking refuge in Greek terri tory will be disarmed, has caused the entente powers considerable anxiety. Consequently, Field Marshal Kitchen CTS visit to the Near East gains i'm portance.
 Related dispatches from Athens say that Greece bases her decision on in- ternational law, while the entente min- l 1sters contend that the right accord ed troops to enter the country through Saloniki permits them to re- tire by the same route, should this become necessary. The ministers are demanding that Greece squarely de- fine her attitude.
 The entente allies declare they have claim on Greece, because of the then Premier Venizelos invitation to send force to Saloniki to enable Greece to fulfill her treaty obligations to Serbia, which Greece later repu- diated Also, Earl Kitchener or the entente ministers will call the atten- tion of King Constantine and his gov ernment to the fact that the constitu- tionalism of Greece was guaranteed by France, Russia and Great Britain and that it was only obtained after Great Britain had ceded the Ionian lands to Greece and the three pow. CTS had agreed to contribute S20. 600 yearly for the personal use Of the king.
 This, it is. contended, binds the Greek people to the entente allies. Should King Constantine overrule the constitution, which the followers of M. Venizelos insist on following, it is suggested that King Constantine would be reminded that his retention of the throne depends on the continu. ance of friendly neutrality toward the entente powers.
 The Germans are said to be assur- ing the Greek government that Greece will be protected against the entente allies should she support the Teuton- ic powers, and that as evidence of the ability of Austria and Germany, they are dispatching more submarines to the Mediterranean, which could be used against any meet threatening Greek ports.

CHANGE
Quit Coffee and Got We'll.

A woman's coffee experience is in. te-esting. For two weeks at time have taken no food but skim milk, for solid food would ferment and cause such distress that 1 could hardly breathe at times, also excruciating pain and heart palpitation and all the time I was so nervous and restless.
 From childhood up I had been a coffee and tea thinker and for the past 20 years I had been trying different physicians but could get only tenn porary relief Then I read an article telling how some one had been helped by leaving off coffee and drinking Postum and it seemed so pleasant Just to read about good health 1 decided to try Postum.
 T made the change from coffee to Postum and there is such difference in me that don't feel like the same person. We all found Postum deli cious and like it better than coffee My health now is wonderfully good
 'As soon as I made the shift to Postum got better and now my trou- bles are gone. l am fieshy, my food as- similates, the pressure in the chest and palpitation are all gone, my bowels are regular, have no more stomach trouble and my headaches are gone.

Efforts of residents of Fort Smith to have the Iron Mountain and all other railroads entering Fort Smith use the Kansas City Southern depot as a union passenger station will be un- successful, it was announced by the commission. The commission denied petition asking for such action The Frisco railroad, which threatened several months ago to withdraw from the use of the station, has agreed to continue using it. Receivers of the road recently withdrew petition pending in the United States Circuit Court of Appeals asking that it's 99- year contract for the use of the sta. tion be annulled.
 The Midland Valley and Iron Noun tain railroads are using separate pas senger depots. When the Frisco threatened to withdraw from the use of the Kansas City Southern depot a petition asking that the action be prevented was sent to the commls- sion. When the Frisco abandoned its intention residents who opposed its withdrawal asked that the commis- sion issue an order requiring all roads to use the Kansas City Southern de- pot as union passenger station.
 An investigation at Fort Smith, ac- cording to Commissioner T. E. Wood, showed that 15 minutes to one hour longer would be required for trains on other roads to reach the Kansas City Southern depot than to reach their own depots. MT. Wood and J. Sam Rowland opposed the ordering of all roads to use one depot w. F. Mcknight favored granting the pe- tition.

mol soap. These are not at all expen- sive. With the resinol soap and warm water bathe the affected parts thor. oughly, until they are free from crusts and the skin is softened. Dry very gently, spread on a thin layer of the resinol ointment, and cover with . light bandage-if necessary to protect the clothing. This should be done twice a day. Usually the distressing itching and burning stop with the first treatment, and the skin soon becomes clear and healthy again
