SEEMS SPOOK|SH THINKS ONE LADY
Vitalitas Made Her Thin While Husband Got Fat
 Out, of Same Bottle

There Is something about this vitalitas that seems uncanny or spookish,' said a heavy lady to one of the vitalitas demon strators.
 Tt is making me thin. have lost 2e pounds in three weeks. while my hus- band. who is taking out of the same bot tie, is getting fat on it. He was as slim as toothpick. while I-well, you can see for yourself what I am. And was a lot worse month ago
 We got Vitalitas for my stomach trouble. and also beca use he was.run down and had rheumatism in one ankle. It helped both of us and then we noticed he was gaining weight about a half pound day, and was falling off even faster. have taken anti-fats, but none of them every brought me down like vitalitas has would like to know how it happens to act so oppositely on him and me-"
 Vitalitas does not act oppositely. but acts with wonderful precision in one direction. that of correcting unhealthful conditions. which cause fatness in one person and leanness in another; or dysentery in one and constipation in the other. Nothing in nature has so marked curative and cor rective effects as this new earth fluid. It forces from the system heterogeneous generally of stomach, liver kidneys, bow els and blood See the demonstration and sample Vitalitas at Averyt's drug store. 1oo-111 Twentieth street, CT write there for information.

ment to attack Germany and would not enter into one.
 T thought" said the chancellor, that | it was not usual for civilized states to attack others without provocation or Join combinations which plan such attacks and therefore. I thought that promise to abstain from such attacks or refrain ,, from entering combinations which plan such attacks could not well be the ob- feet of a solemn treaty between civilized nations"
 The chancellor said he had thereupon suggested England, therefore, will ob- viously observe benevolent neutrality should war be forced upon Germany" This, he said, England fatly rejected, fearing that it would have endangered her friendship with other nations. This fact. the chancellor added, had never yet been communicated to the English na- ton.
 Premier Asquith, in his speech at Car diff on October ?, 1914, the chancellor add ed. said he had secuted the last German suggestion, he representing that Germany had asked England to remain neutral in
 the event of Germany being engaged in war. This version of the request was untrue, the chancellor declared. Not if "engaged in war he said, but If war was forced upon Germany was what Germany asked. The chancellor expressed astonishment that Premier Asquith, wh1 he chara oterized as an able statesman was unable to see this difference. .Who has spread and invented fairy tales?" asked the chancellor, in con- menting on the Cardiff speech. "A short time afterward, the chan oeilor continued. letters were ex- changed transforming the triple en-
 tente into a defensive alliance, which,
 he declared the British and French general staffs and admiralty had trans formed into an offensive alliance, con oealing the fact from the English pub lie and Parliament until August 8, 1914.
 The chancellor then recounted Ger many's endeavors to maintain friend ly relations with Russia. which, The said, were frustrated by Pan -Slavists and French revanche politicians. He recalled that at the end of July, 1914,
 Germany was not simply opposed to the British suggestion for an inter- national conference. but that she sub
 slltuted a suggestion for a quieter
 form of working by direct conversa- lions with Vienna and St. Petersburg.
 The speaker affirmed that Germany
 advised Austria Hungary to accept
 mediation in a form which as he had
 previously said went as far as was barely compatible With the alliance.
 The chancellor then made the fol-
 lowing important statement regarding
 Poland's future:
 Geographical and political fate has
 forced Germans and Poles to fight
 against each other for centuries. Re-
 membrance of this old antagonism has
 now diminished. I do not initiate the
 glitterng promises of our enemies, but
 hope that the present occupation of
 the eastern Polish frontier means the
 beginning of a new evolution which
 will abolish the old-time antagonsm
 between Germans and Poles and lead
 Poland freed from the Russian yok e,
 toward a brighter future in which she
 will be able to develop and cultivate
 her individual national character
 The chancellor continues:

INCREASED RATES
 ON IRON AND STEEL
 APPROVED BY I. c e.

Washing ton. August 19.-Increased rates on iron and steel from the Mis- sssippi and Missouri rivers, Chicago and intermediate territory to Utah, Colorado and Kansas points were ap- proved today by the interstate com : merce commission.
 The decision justified the proposed readjustment of iron and steel rates from points in Central Freight asso- citation territory to Oklahoma points and to Fort Smith, Ark. and declares that existing rates from Pittsburg and St. Louis to Hutchinson, Wichita and Topeka, Kan. "are not shown to be unreasonable or unjustly discrim- inatory"
 The decision follows complaints from shippers and traffic associations in the west.

many more appreciating just what they had and were making the best of it, ard how many were looking for greater re- responsibilities. and looked so disappointed when told too late. The little girl already has another home, but he went to sec stu another homeless girl he heard of. because he had a home to give-verly. man with heart. Just as we had writ ten this far along, we were stopped by a vision, strange, here was another man with a home to give. We stopped our story to listen.
 Inns time sturdy man told us of hav- ing lost his wife. leaving two little chil- dren. He wanted some woman who needed a home and woud work. n home maker. to come to his house and make the best of it for all. He, too. said things are not fine, but can be made con- fortab'e. They simply need woman S hand to put them together right, and to keep his boys. As to a good living. he could offer that. because he depended on his labor and had always fared well. He said. If I had my home in shape again, do not doubt myself in doing my duty as l see it, but no man can work Is best in an anxious mind. It did not take
 long to find a housekeeper for him, so many women want the job of managing touselxeeper." but no telling how often he will have to change to find working one.
 Strange these two coincidences where men had home first in their lifes ar engagements in this day and time when recreation of various kinds are claiming their time and their energies. And they were two from the simple life, and appi C. cated the influences of a good home and the real satisfaction of a family circle and needed little else for their complete contentment.
 On the other hand. we find many rest. less women, clamoring to get out into business and earn their money, willing to lock their doors, trade their children on to institutions, and get out into what they call "a care free world" and they little realize what real business re- quires, to give good service. To those at the desk who appear ito be having such an easy time 1t is job to figure on success full ends, on these very ends rest the odds of continued job.
 Thus goes on the scenes every day to we who ramble among the people. We see the veal and the woe of it all, ano know so many great, big men and women among those who live by the sweat cf their brow that we wonder why this big world workshop ever has so many idlers. The busy people are the ones who are loving-the man who waits for things hs s nothing for self and nothing to give away he disseminates misery, and holds to his share of 1t.

tories will free the Balkan nations from Russian oppression and make possible a realization of the principle
 The chancellor concluded:
 "Germany has never aspired to an European hegemony. Her ambition was to excel others in the works of civil- ilation amidst the peaceful competi- tion of large and small nations. This has brought to light the greatness of the attainments made possible by our own moral strength. We cannot use this force except for freedoms sake.
 We do not hate the nations driven into war by their governments but we have forgotten our former sentimen- tality. We shall continue to fight un- til those nations ask peace from their own. Their own guilty governments, and until the road Is free for a new Europe. delivered from French in tigue, Muscoviie lust of conquest and British tutelage"

The Appreciation of Good Homes
Ny MRS. J. n. REID.

few days ago we were present when man entered the office of the welfare department of the city. He en- tered so full of the purpose of his visit that his face beamed, yet he was mod
 est in telling the whole story.
 This story was so full of good. was so genuine that it made a lasting i'm pression upon the hearers, and we dis covered We had been in the presence Of a perfectly happy man, one who loved home first and humanity next.
 He had read the story of the Tennes- see girl sent out from home friendless offer her a place as a member of his family Wanted to educate her and give her chance, such as she had never had before He lives in a north Ala bama town. and has a home of his ow,
 children, and a good wife. Some of his children are married and making homes for themselves; the mother and several little ones remain with him, the father is a railroad man and always a good deal of the time. He wanted the girl for company for his wife, that they might work along together and make the time pleasant for both. Dozens of people have wanted to help this girl and other girls, but I doubt if ever 2 real home was pictured so beautifully and yet so simply. It was his home and he was happy and wanted to give hap piness in return for his own blessings. It was not the language, though, that was good that he used in his story but the sentiment The little home is sim pie, but 1t is ours and everything in 1t Is ours. We are near school, a church and among good people. and we are making glad the best we can Our baby had a wonderful escape not long ago when our house burned, but we have 1t safe with us; it would not be the same world without it. He Is seven years younger than the next older brother, and he fits into our lives so nicely. I hate to even think of how near he was to leaving us, and how lost we would have been without him.
 I am wanting to have this young girl with us, because we were touched to tears with the brief history of her trouble. Not that our home Is fine. but because we try to make 1t good to fill 1t with things for happiness and pleasure and comfort. We have a plano and she can take her mu- sic lessons, too, and while things are not fine, we have a plenty all our own and are willing to divide with her our share v He talked so earnestly. with such natur- alness that we wondered how many men in the world had such a house, and how
