AID FRANCE AT ONCE,
BISHOP BRENT URGES
PreIate Home From War Says CIV.
ilizatiOn Is At Stake.

BALTIMORE, May "A plea to
America for the life Of France and for
the salvation through France Of the
world was made by q man lust
back from Frances bettienelds.
He was Bishop Charles Henry Brent.
Of the Philippines. who landed recent
ly from England.
The occasion was the mems supper
Of the Protestant Episcopal churches
OF the city.
Bishop Breat told OF the service on
America Day" In st. PauT's Cathedral
In London, at which he preached the
sermon, which twas q service Of con-
secration of two great nations kneel-
ing side by side and offering them
selves for Gods work at this time"
He told Of the last service he had
conducted at the French front. at
Arras, at q time when the walls Of
the church were shaking from bonn
bardment, and OF the seventy soldiers
he had confirmed.
How many Of the seventy are liv-
ing now" he said, II don't know. But
1 do know that they gave all that
human life can give when they knelt
before the altar there Our country
is calling to you to make such q sac
rifice, not only In the name Of patriot
ism, but OF the whole human race.
France BIed white.
"T want to speak to you about
France, fellow Americans: France IL
dying. France has bled herself white
uncomplainingly, not for herself. but
for the world In the fortress Of Yer
dun I found a motto, one OF many:
Germany fights to Cypress; France
fights to set men free. On the fate
of France hangs the world'-and that
Is true.
Don't delude yourselves with the
belief that your going into the war Is
unselhsh. It is the only decent thing
we can do. France has shed Its blood
for US. Can we do aught else but
help this martyr nation of the world?
The borders of America press upon
the borders of France. France Il the
buffer between US and Q brutal foe.
France is dying. and America-and
only America-can save her America
will, God helping. save her!"
At this point the crowd Of 1000 men
could not hold in any longer and rose
as one man, cheering at the top of Its
voice But Bishop Brent continued:
| Must share Our Eoods
sour conservation to the cause OF
humanity must be specific and must
be put into effect now. France must
have food and ships for this night or
France will starve. America must
share the food from its table with
France. We must have a strict econ
omy of food. Late suppers, lavish en-
tertainments, all waste must be
stopped. II they are not stopped vol
UNFAIRLY they must be stopped by
/ force.
''Uppermost in my mind is the need
of that dying nation-but which viii
not die now, as America helps
And here interrupted another burst of
cheering greater than the hrst- To
save France we must lay violent hands
on our extravagances and check all
waste. Every self-indulgence Is tan
tamount to taking bread from the
mouths of the starving. 1 pray God
you and all loyal Americans will
serve the state with clean hands and
hearts, and through the state serve
God and the whole family of man
kind"

been removed the explosive is one of
the most powerful. Silver, however"
says DR.. Nieuwland, SIS far too ex-
pensive to make the explosive popu-
lar at the present time. During the
past few weeks have been substi-
tuting mercury with excellent results.
If this substitution can be made per-
manent, the explosive will not only
be extremely powerful, but cheap
enough for any practical uses"
For severaI years Dr. Nieuwland
has been conducting experiments in
chemistry and botany at the univer-
sity. Father Nieuwland was South
Bend man before entering the semi
nary at Notre Dame. He graduated
from the classical department and
then went to Washington, D. c., where
he received the degree Of doctor OF
philosophy. He became acquainted
with the late DR.. Edward Lee Green
there and entered the scientific field
with DR.. Greene.

HOW YOU GET SICK

Sometimes you overload your
stomach with rich foods. Your
life may be an active one. and thus
you may care for all you eat. But
a few days of inactivity show your
system does not call for so much.
You awake in the morning tired.
Your body feels heavy; you know
you are not up to the mark. Your
digestion has not cared for the
overload. Part of it remains. It
generates gas that inf1ames the
delicate Innings. They fail to pour
out the digestive fluids and neglect
to absorb the life-giving elements.
You know something is wrong.
Your body gets weak, and soon
opportunity is offered for some Sc
we're Hines.
Taken in time, the indigestion
would not become serious. First re-
move the overload; then soothe the
sore membranes; then build up the
weakened body. It's simple to say,
but mot too easy to do. You need DeIp.
A tonic that will quicken dig s.
ton, help remove waste, Sootne the
soreness and arouse the system
that's just what you need.
Peruna has an enviable record In
this respect. It has aided many
thousands in the last century TO
\ overcome Just these conditions, ana
thereby prevent serious sickness.
The tablet form is convenient
for regular administration.
