Thought is one of the most

What causes the color to fade from
pink cheeks and red lips? In a word
it is thin blood.
When the fading color in cheeks and
lips is accompanied by loss OF bright
ness in the eyes and an increasing
heaviness in the step, the cause ia to be
sought in the state OF the blood.
A hundred causes may contribute to
the condition of thin blood that is
known as anemia. 0verwork, lack of
outdoor exercise, insufficient rest and
sleep, improper diet, these are few
of them. The important thing is to re-
store the blood to normal, to build il
UP SO that the color will return to
cheeks and lips.

clare an embargo on all crude oil prod

equitable price has been restored in this

Explanation of the increased cost Of
gasoline was found in the Standard Oil
companies control OF pipe lines, rather
than in the increased expectations caused
by the war, he contended. He offered
statistics to show that the total in

NO GENERAL CONFUSION.
British Cabinets Decision on Conscrip-

London, April lit Is understood
that the British cabinet has virtually de-
cided that there shall be no general com
pulsion on the lines of equal sacrifice
J for all" The final decision of the cab
met in this matter has been deferred un-
til tomorrow, but it is said that ma
jority OF the ministers are against con-
scription OF married men.
The special committee on recruiting
which investigated the question for the
ca binet thoroughly studied the question
of numbers obtainable by means of the
military service act and the Lord Derby
recruiting system and decided that gen
eral compulsion was not necessary. 1t is
understood the deficiency in the yield of
men for the army as compared with the
estimated requirements will be met as
follows
First, compulsion for all youths as
they reach the age Of Is. although these
men will not be liable for service abroad
until they are 49,
Second, more single men to be drafted
from the reserved trades to the army
Third, time-expred soldiers to be re-
tanned.
1t is claimed that by these means far
more men will be obtunabe than by con-
scripting all married men Of military age.

AIR RAIDER DROPS
BOMBS" ON CAPITAL
Searchlight and Guns Save Washington
in Theoretical Bombard-
nnent.

Washington. April lT.-An enemy
aeroplane made a surprise attack on
Washington Saturday night, dropped COZ
pounds OF high explosive and incendiary
bombs on government property and was
endeayoring to destroy the bureau of en-
craving when it was driven off by anti
aircraft guns at the Washington bar,
racks.
Theoretically this is what happened
Saturday night when the national capital
was surprised by the sound Of mock ex-
plosiyes and the purr of the aeropane's
motor. 1t was test conducted by the
war department to ascertain whether the
national capital could be protected from
an aeroplane attack. A board of officers
will decide later whether the aeroplanes
succeeded or failed in its attack
The object OF the antiaircraft gun
ners, working with powerful searchlights,
was to drive the hostile aeroplane away
or destroy it before serious damage could
be accomplished At the Washington
barracks officers said Saturday night that
searchlights picked up the invader with
out difficulty and that the guns could
have riddled it before its object could
have been attained.
The aeroplane was first seen shortly
after o'clock. The operations of the
searehlights locating it were clearly fol-
lowed and the explosives, which were real
explosives, but Of a harmless character
as they exploded in the air, provided
startling display Of fireworks for Wash
ingtonians.
