British Throw Up II Bridges.

The situation was rendered still more
difficult by the presence within the
saucer of a large number of waterways
that must be crossed by means of
bridges which might at any moment
be destroyed by gunf1re. This difficulty,
however. was overcome by a brilliant
feat of the British engineers. who threw
seventeen bridges across the waters
ways in the face of terrific gunfire.
Similar and equally remarkable work
was done by the French engineers, who
were forced to bridge the User foR
their attack.
The Germans little feared. appars

direction of their right wing. 1t was
early in June that rumors of the imS
pending attack began to find their warl

Berlin. Gradually the rumors assumed
certainty and the Germans began
feverishly to strengthen their lines,
pouring large numbers Of fresh forces
into Flanders and bringing up all avail.

was evacuated of civilians and stripped

1t is planned to have the Senate
rules committee report out the original
resolution providing for a joint COM
mittee of Congress on the conduct of
the war, introduced by Senator Weeks
of Massachusetts, and have it voted

Senator Weeks said that he was salts

Senator Overman, chairman of the
Senate rules committee, before which

a similar resolution in that body.
President Wilson's violent objection
to the committee on war expenditures

A Metal That Will Neither Rust Nor
Become furnished.
Cutlery made of steel that neither
rusts nor furnishes is now sold in all
first class shops. 1.-The new STEEL" says
the Scientific American, was discover
ed in England, but is now being made
in the United States and sold as table
cutlery. 1t is what is commonly called
an alloy steel-that is, it differs from
ordinary steel in that it contains a
special element or metal.
"In this case it is chromium, which is
mainly responsible for bestowing the
stainless and ruStleSs properties. BY
Incorporating from II to ID per cent of
this metal In mild carbon steel the new
properties are obtained.
Gan English metallurgist in gathering
together SOME rods of steel which had
lain a long time in his laboratory,
noticed that while most of them were
badly rusted or stained, a few were as
bright as when originally made. This
led to the discovery and manufacture
of the steel.
THE new steel is expensive
than the old, which usually appears in
the every day table knife. Its advan-
tages and lasting properties, as well as
its appearance and the convenience
arising from its use, more than offset
the extra cost. The fact that 1t does
not tarnish, stain or corrode augments
its value decidedly. 1t is supplanting
not only the old steel cutlery, but also
the plated. It's possibilities, however,
are by no means limited to cutlery.
One can readily imagine to what count
less uses a stainless and rustless metal

DELIVERY OF BONDS TO

Secretary MoAdoo Announces That
Task Viii Take Several Weeks.

Washington, Sept. 19.-Deliver3 Of
Liberty bonds to subscribers, Secre-
tary McAdoo announced last night,
will begin September 26. The twelve
federal reserve banks will distribute
the issue. Considering the probable
retention by many subscribers Of in
term certificates, already issued, OT-
flcial estimate that the work OF dis
tribution will require several weeks.
The huge issue is larger in the
number of bonds required than first
reports based on more than 1900, 900
individual subscriptions, indicated.
The number of coupon bonds Sec
rotary McAdoo announced last night
Is estimated by federal reserve banks
as in excess of 100000 of which
more than 100000 are Of the $50
and 500 denominations.
In announcing the date for the
commencement of deliveries. Secre-
tary McAdoo repeated his suggestion
that holders of interim certificates
would find it to their advantage in
many instances to hold the certif-
Gates, instead of exchanging them for
bonds, until congress disposes of the
bill authorizing four per cent inter-
est rate on the next offering.

WARNING FROM CANADA.

In Canada they have had a Ions
and bitter experience with the ways
Of the Hun.
They hailed President Wilson's re-
ply to Pope Benedict's peace propos-
ais with enthusiasm, but a writer in
The Manitoba Free Press issues this
warning against possible German
treachery:
Is IT not plain as day that the
next move to be made by the
present rulers Of Germany will
be to camoufiage their state
system so as to make 1t appear to
be the sort Of a government with
which the free, self governing
nations at war with II could
negotiate? They will spring a
frame up, II they can. They
will stage at Berlin, for the pur-
pose of Turing the Allies into
peace negotiations, If possible, a
reorganization of the German
system, which will look like a
triumph Of democracy in Hun
land, their hope being. Of course,
thus to fool the Allies into con-
clOding a peace. which would be
in reality only a truce, a time for
preparing another attempt to
achieve German dominance Of the
world by a better planned out
burst Of devastating crimes on
land and on sea.
II is a danger to be guarded
against, but since the Mexican and
Argentine exposures, Americans are
less prone to believe that their gov
eminent is composed Of weak. fool
ish tyros at the game of statecraft.

Cocoanut Oil Fine
For Washing Hair

If you want to keep your hair in
good condition, be careful what you
wash IL with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkan. This dries
the scalp, makes the hair brittle and is
very harmful. Just plain mulsiied
cocoanut oil (Which ii pure and en-
tirely greaseless), Is much better than
the most expensive soap or anything
else you can use for shampooing, al
this can't possibly injure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with
water and rub 1t in. One or two tea
spoonfuls will make an abundance Of
rich, creamy lather, cleanses the hair
and scalp thoroughly. The lather
rinses out easily and removes every
particle Of dust, dirt, dandruff and
excessive oil. The hair dries quickly
and evenly. and it leaves 1t fine and
silky, bright. fluffy and easy to man
age.
You can get mulsihed cocoanut oil
at most any drug store. It Is very
cheap, and a few ounces Is enough 10

I concerned the freedom Of American
ships and the rights Of American
sailors on the high seas. For the
most part the American army was
poorly trained and equipped and had
little success. It redeemed itself
however, at the battle Of New Or
leans, where Andrew Jackson led the
western militia to a well-earned VIC
tory. The British government
tacitly recognized the soundness of
the principle for which the Ameri-
cans fought.
The Mexican War.
Americas next war was with Mex
leo. The Mexicans had not been
very careful of American rights
either in Mexico itself or along the
frontier, and the disagreement as to
the ownership Of a certain large strip
of land along the Rio Grande easily
led to hostilities. In the war that
followed the armies of Scott and
Taylor won victory after victory
against overwhelming odds and
eventually Mexico sued for peace.
One result OF the war was to estab-
lish more definitely the right Of an
American citizen abroad to a reason
able amount Of protection and sup
port.
Less than a generation later came
the great Civil war. Never was the
fighting spirit OF the citizen-sold
better shown than in this unhappy
and bitter struggle, when Americans
were pitted against Americans. Both
government, the North for the prin-
ciple Of union. the South for the
principle of the right OF States to
secede from that union. Today, with
the war q half century behind them,
there are probably few Americans,
either North or South. who do not
rejoice in their hearts that the prin-
ciple Of union was upheld and that
we are able today to meet our new
foe as a united nation.
We entered the Spanish war to
put an end to misrule in Cuba. Again
our quarrel was not with the Span
ish people, but with the government.
which was creating conditions in
Cuba that we could not endure with
self-respect. Admiral Cervera and
his men, who had shown themselves
brave foes, were received in this
country after their defeat and cap
ture as guests rather than as prison
ers. Their treatment was striking
evidence Of our real feeling toward
the Spanish people. We fought for
the principle that on the American
continents governmental tyranny
and cruelty must not be permitted to
continue; and that principle was es-
tablished.
Fighting For Principles.
The Americans are peculiarly a
peace-loving people. They have no
taste for warfare and no lust for
territory or power. Yet within less
than one hundred and fifty years we
have entered six important wars, the
last and perhaps the greatest OF
which is the one just beginning
against the German government,
Why has all this warfare been nee
essary?
The answer is to be found in the
simple fact that there are certain
American rights and principles that
must be upheld if the United States
is to remain a free and self-respect-
ing nation. These rights have never
been attacked-and probably never
will be attacked-by other free and
democratic peoples. But the world
