BACK TO FIRST PRINCIPLES

It was James A. Garfield, we believe, who. when
rendered a command in the Union armies, said that he
knew nothing of war except the elementary principles,
which he understood to be that q big boy, under ordi-
nary circumstances. could whip a little boy, and that one
big boy could whip two little boys If he took them one at
a time.
Most Of our war strategy is based on just the prin-
ciples involved in that statement. and quite frequently
the proposition resolves itself into elements Just about
as simple as those stated by Garfield.
It is not alone in matters Of strategy that the main
principles remain practically unchanged, and that the
methods of applications are frequently those employed as
far back as history takes us. In the technic of war we
still adhere to the old fundamentals, and quite frequent
" revert to the precise methods employed by our ances-
tors. &y
ttllery has made the use of the trench imperative. But
even under the conditions which obtain now, there have
been some conspicuous examples of field operations of a
character familiar to the ancients. Hand-to-hand COM
tons Of trench warfare seem to have made this sort of
fighting moro frequent and desperate than it has been
in most other modern warn. DR.. S. Weir Mitchell, who
served as a surgeon with the federal armies in our civil
war, says that in his experience bayonet wounds were
very few. and, as his statement Is now recalled, he says
that only two suoh wounds came under his own personal
observation. But the bayonet seems to be used in trench
raids in Fsanoe almost as freely as the spear was used
before gunpowder was invented.
We have seen a return to the use of the hand gren-
ade. The gas tank Is q modification of the Chinese stink
pot The tnoendiaEy bomb II q variation of the ancient
Greek fire. Bows and arrows have been used in this

BREWER MAN EATS
ALTHOUGH He IS
WITHOUT TEETH
Declares That New Tanlac Digest'
Food Whether il is Chewed or Not

81 have no teeth, and am unable TO
nse false teeth, and yet | am able to
eat and digest most anything, ana
enjoy my meals thoroughly, declared
Otis Mcdonald, teamster, or South
Brewer Maine.
At first glance this statement seems
trifle overdrawn, does it not! 10
say the least it is most unusual
statement. However, Mr. Mcdonald
made the above remark, and ne tells
story that will interest every man
and women here 1t Is story that
will be doubly interesting to men and
women who are In need of general
reconstruction tonic.
81 suffered from indigestion and
sour stomach" Mr.. Mcdonald began.
my food was not digesting. The gas
became so bad at times that | did not
think | could stand it. had almost
given up hope of ever being able to
eat heartily again.
az noticed how much good Tanlac
was doing for others and | started TO
take It. have no teeth to chew my
food. so | have been using Tanlac in
place of teeth and it certainly keeps
my food digested.
81 can eat anything and it does not
trouble me- If l could use my false
teeth | would be all right, but | find
that Tanlac digests my food just as
we'll as if | chewed it. 1t has GER
tainly helped me in every way and |
am more than glad to recommend 1t to
others who may be suffering as
was"
Tanlac receives remarkable en-
dorsements like this every day from
we'll known Maine men and women.
Tanlac now is being specially in
troduced in Skowhegan by Frank w.
Bucknam Norridgewock, Spaulding
Drug Co and there is a Tanlac agent
in every Maine town

Change of Date

w. T. Clark's Travelogue Entertain
ers, who were to appear at the Show
hogan Opera House on Friday, July
goth, will not play until Monday even
ing, July 23rd The reason for the
change is, number of people have
expressed their desire to attend and
at the same time had engagements to
go to Lakewood on that evening on
account of the dance. AS it would
be impossible to attend both places,
Mr.. Clark has changed his bookings
so as to accommodate those who desire
to attend both places. A car will run
to Lakewood after the performance.
