THERE'S A DIFFERENCE
BETWEEN SEA AND LAND

Washington, Jan. 15.-Secretary
Lansing to-day defined the difference
in the position occupied by Ameri-
can citizens on the high seas and
American citizens in territory under
the sovereignty of nation. He
said:
'The high seas are common terri
tory to every nation. Territory it.
self always is under the sovereignty
of nation. On the high seas nom
whether neutral or bel
ligerent. have the right to pass to

I'm territory they have the right

sonal resources and wealth Of these

THE pacifists claim that war Is
the result of overpreparedness. The
exact opposite is true. None Of the
other nations was prepared. Ger
many was the only one that had per-
fected her plans of preparation years
in advance Furthermore, Germany
IS spending all of her money at
home, which distantly removes the
prospects of exhaustion. When war
came Germany had more than 1907
600 machine guns on hand. For
nine years she paid British arms
companies a royalty on coo machine
guns a month. The English failed
to see the great use of this weapon.
81 predict that the war will last
from three to seven years longer. l
also think that the war will end in
a draw. | don't believe that either
side will come out of the war ex-
hausted either economically or I'M,
men. I think they will come out
stronger in the end, England maybe
poorer, but infinitely more potential.
an spite of the submarine raids
on English warships, the subma-
rine has not yet eliminated the
dreadnaught and superdreadnaught.
England has lost most of its big
ships through lack of preparation in
destroyers to defend them"
Mr.. Maxim is chairman of the
Committee on Ordnance and Explo-
sives of the civilian consulting board
of the navy. He was asked If the
committee was at work on any new
inventions.
I'VE don't need inventions so
much. The principal need of the
army and the navy Is not ideas, but
more money to carry out the present
excellent ideas that they have decid-
ed on. The country should ignore
expense for the next three years and
start actually preparing. President
Wilson's program for preparedness
is all right as far as it goes, but it
does not go far enough"
"As a matter of fact, Mr.. Maxim,
will not this war be followed, after
a peaceful epoch of preparation,
with another great war;" he wa,
asked.
Right" he replied.

WOMEN SHRINK
FROM M0DESTY
Bear Grievous Ailments Rather
Than Make Conditions
Known.

The subject of complaints pecu-
liar to women is a delicate one, yet
1t is a plain duty to let these suffer-
ers know that most of the derange-
ments from which they suffer are
due primarily to nervous debility.
Many a suffering woman, inluenc-
ed by shrinking modesty, has borne
this grievous condition without COM
plant rather than make a personal
appeal. When women say, 81 am
all run down, so nervous and weak"
that means they are victims of the
modern malady.
Such women, and they are legion
in every community, suffer from
headaches, backaches, loss of appe-
tite and sleeplessness. Their spirits
are always depressed and their lives
are not the normally happy ones of
their more fortunate sisters. Often,
too, there are spells of nausea, weak
ness, or even fainting, that make
them feel insecure and to wonder
when they will be embarrassed, or
even in danger, because of their con-
dition.
For such suffering women Ta-lac,
the tonic, tissue builder, appetizer
and invigorant, is ideal. Tanlac
builds up the system, promotes d.
gestion and proper assimilation Of
food, vitalizes the blood and brings
back healthy color to the cheeks and
real sparkle to the eyes.
Tanlac may now be obtained in
Hartford at the Ohio County Drug
Co.'s drug store, L. c. Morton &;
Son, Centertown, z. Wilbur Mitchell,

APPEAL TO LAND OWNERS
SOME WIRE FENCE TALK

Now is the time while you are not
busily engaged in making prcpara-
tons to plant your. crop, to look
around and see how much fencing
that you are in need of for the year
1916. See how much surplus land
you have which is not paying yOu
annually any income at ali--land
that produces a vast crop of vegeta-
ton yearly, from which you fail to
reap a profit-sharing for lack of the
proper amount of fencing. Now
why not change this loss into a prof
it-sharing to you by letting your
stock have this surplus acreage for
pasture? This, of course will run
your expense bill up just little at
present, but IL you will only think
for moment, this really does not
mean an expense bill to you, for
each rod Of good woven-wire fence
placed on your farm, adds fully its
cost to the valuation of your farm,
and this is the only kind we carry
in our line. We find that Kitselman
Bros. wire fence. through our sew
eral years experience, has given
splendid satisfaction throughout,
and for their heavy and uniform
galvanizing, can not be eXcelled, this
being the life of all wire fencing.
We have just added to our wire de-
partment a full car of farm and
poultry fence, also barbed wire in
all weights, which places us in posi-
ton to furnish you any style fence
that you may be in need of, at a
very low price. We can save you
money If you get our prices before
you make your purchase.

SIX BABIES ARE BEING BORN
For Each Victim Killed By
War-A BulWark Of
Preparedness.
ANOTHER WAR Is TO FOLLOW

Chicago, Jan. 15.-"Germany's
stro1gest arm is her women. Ger
mans are being born six times as
fast as they are being killed. &C.
many's supply of soldiers cannot be
exhausted with such a birth rate"
Hudson Maxim, inventor of rapid
fire guns and gun silencers, author
of "Deeenseless America" AMI ad
vocate OF extreme military prepared
ness for the United States, made the
above statement as he passed
through Chicago.
Germans mothers are only cog
in the wonderfully efficient machine
with which the Teutonic allies have
been able to surprise the world" he
said, but the mother cog has been
one of the most important ones for
Germany.
German efficiency is the greatest
fact that future histories will relate.
That efficiency has been based pri-
marily on observation-disclosures
military service. 1t makes for pa
triotism, because We love those We
serve.
This war should bring home to
America her pitiful lack of defenses,
and, further still, ought to convince
Chicago of the important part it has
to play in the future development of
our national defenses.
almost 80 per cent. of our NUM-
ton plants, shipbuilding plants, navy
yards and Government storehouses
are located within a radius of 200
miles around New York, where they
could be captured in a two-weeks'
intensive campaign by a prepared
and efficient enemy.
These plants, which in time of
war would have to feed the muscles
Of our fighters, should be located
around the country in all sections,
so that the loss of any one section
would not make it impossible for us
to keep up the fight
Chicago, by reason of its Won

weaknesses, and as great as the
temptation to plumber her. Regard
less of condemnation. the undenia-

right that nations know.

THE secret of Germany's success
is the ability to mobilize her indus
tries, which in my opinion is far
more important than her ability to
mobilize her armies. The efficiency
of the cooperative system has been
proved. Germany has encouraged
her private manufacturers of NUM-
