it would enter then to the very mar
row of their bones. The government
has organized this country for war
on the most gigantic and complete
scale every known in the history of
the world. To do all of this it takes
money, real hard cash. Our boys at
the front, as typifed by Freeman
Hames, Rex Nichols, Lloyd Maier,
Lawton Sims, Alfred Abshire, Jesse
Freer and others, must have clothes
to wear, food to eat, guns to shoot
and ammunition to shoot with. They
must have transportation service.
They must have recreation. They
must have everything that conduces
to the general welfare, health and
comfort of a man who has sacrificed
his all for the privilege of fighting
for his country and us people here at
home. This all takes money, and
Uncle Sam must have money. He
will have money to carry on this fight
to successful conclusion. Our Uncle
Samuel is a good-natured old fellow
and he smiles benignly and says, you
people who have a little money laid
aside, lend me the money to carry on
this fight. l will give you guaran-
teed bond payable in gold and carry
| ing four per cent interest. Now then,
people lend me your money. And
would you believe it, to my amaze
ment people that have money lying
idle refuse to meet this appear, and
burden. If you cannot go and fight
for your country, lend it your money
and help push the good work along
Supposing the people refuse to awak-
en- to the needs of the occasion and
go to sleep at the switch at this time
of danger. Do you suppose for one
minute that Uncle Sam is going to be
thwarted in his wish for this needfR3

will vanish into a stern look and In

MOVING ITS CAPITAL
To MOSCOW
GOVERNMENT G OF RUSSIA WILL
ABANDON CITY OF PETER
= THE GREAT
ASSOCIATED Press)

Russia's decision to remove the
capital to Moscow and the evacuation
by the inhabitants of Reval, the naval
base on the Gulf of Riga, suggests
that the government is influenced by
the German threat against Petrograd
being developed by naval and mill
tary forces. Previous suggestions of
the removal of the capital have been
referred to only as to the military
situation, it being pointed out that
the government would be freer away
from the sinister influences of Pet
rograd.
Apparently there is no intention of
sending out the Russian fleet, which
seems penned in, to fight superior
forces, but the sailors are reported
anxious for fight.
Petrograd reports two German de-
stroyers sunk by mines yesterday.
The French engaged in small oper-
ations on the Aisne front last night,
taking scores of prisoners and in
fiicting damage while in the German
lines.
The Germans made a local attack
on the Verdun front but were re-
pulsed.
Gen. Haig's report gave little idea
what is happening in Flanders, but
Berlin stated the Teutons were deliv-
ering heavy bombardment on both
French and British positions.
Berlin reported Moon island COM
pletely in German possession and
five thousand Russians captured

BELLEVIEW

Belleview, Oct. 17.-Mrs. o. M.
Gale and little Miss Iva returned last
Thursday from Arcadia, where they
spent a pleasant week with Miss
Mary Gale, who is teaching in the
grammar school.
Mrs. ]. Walter Nelson made a cou-
pie of business trips to Ocala last
week, going up and returning in her
little Ford automobile.
After an absence of several years,
Needham Nix appeared in town, COM
ing from Newark, N. j., where he has
been employed in the munitions fac
tories. His father, Mr.. Isaac Nix, has
been very i'll, which accounts for
Needham's presence. Needham says
that this is great big world and
that there is plenty of room outside
of Belleview for any person who has
will to go out and work.
Mr.. Alfred Oliver, looking sleek,
fat and prosperous, wearing a khaki
uniform with a yellow stripe on his
arm which signifies that he is in the
artillery service of the United States,
was in town last week visiting with
his parents.
A cute little envelope, cmbellished
fore and aft with the Stars and
Stripes, the tri-color of France and
the Union Jack, postmarked Macon,
Ga, arrived and upon opening it
found a very optimistic letter from
Freeman Hames, who states that
they have had frost, that the camp is
in good condition with everyone
working and cheerful; that he is pro-
NOTED to the grade of mechanic; that
his motorcycle had won praise and his
captain had bought him a side car
And aside from the plentitude OF
work he was living on fiowery beds
of ease and wished to be remembered
to all his friends. Here is fan
criterion of young America. Making
attempt after attempt to enlist ir
different branches of the service and
failing, he goes long way from home
and by his popularity, winning ways
and general mechanical knowledge
he succeeds in giving service to hi:
country. Here is an example that
many of our stay at home boys may
strive to emulate.
Again we come to another of oul
local boys, who, tho he was beyond
the draft age, made attempt after

SAGE AND SULPHUR
 DARKENS GRAY HAIR
Brush this through faded, IifeIess locks and they become dark, glossy, youthful.

Hair that loses it's color and lus,re. or when it fades, turns gray, dull and lifeless, is caused by d lack of sulphur in the hair. Our grandmother made up a mixture of Sage Tea and sulphur to keep her locks dark and oea autiful, and thousands of women and men who value that even color. that beautiful dark shade of hair which is so attractive. use only this old-tim recipe.
 Nowadays we get this famous mix ture by asking at any drug store for a 50 cent bottle of "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound which dark ems the hair so naturally, so evenly, that nobody can possibly tell it has been applied. Besides, it takes off dandruff, stops scalp itching and fall ing hair. You just dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time. By morning the gray hair disappears; but what de- lights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur is that. besides beauti fully darkening the hair after a few applications. it also brings back the gloss and lustre and gives it an ap- pearance of abundance.--Advertis nent

CHICAGO GRAIN

CHICAGO, June 27.--Spreading of belief that the United States govern ment would fix a price for the whole domestic wheat crop of 1917 did a good deal to pull down wheat quotations here today. The market closed steady, one to four cents net lower with July at $2.05 and September at $1.S3. Corn gained 1A to cents, oats 3s to 5s and provisions 12 to 30 cents
 Incentives to buy wheat except on a hand to mouth basis appeared to be lacking in view of seeming likelihood that government control of values was imminent. The consequent downward tendency of the market received fur ther imDetuS from assertions that inn mediately embargo restrictions were contemplated to curtail shipments to European neutralS.
 Drought complaintr from western Kansas helped to rally the corn mar het, and so did gossip that further buy ing of corn and oats for the entente allies was expected soon. Throughout the day oats felt the stimulus of persistent buying on the part of houses with seaboard connec- tiOns.
 Provisions ascended on account oi the readiness with which offerings were absorbed by hackers and shorts Close

The action of the I. C. c. in granting an increase of 15c a lOn on soft coal east of the Mississippi river acted as a stimulus to the rails yesterday. This action is also taken as indicative of a general advance in freight rates by a decision expected this week.
