Gold imports for the month were s4.0O0,0O0. approximately the same as in September. This was explained by the fact that the allies are making the bulk of their purchases here with credits advanced by the United states. thus making unnecessary the shipment of gold in payment.
 Gold exports for the 10 months of this year totalled s360.00O as against s101, 100000 for the same period n 1916. gold imports in 1917 were s53z, 000,00 against s4S0,000, 900 during the first 10 months of last year.

|NTERALL|ED WAR CONF FERENCE COMES.
 ID FINAL CLOSE

NSI1s, Dectnfaer S.-@@tS.c inter-aIlied war conference was closed today with brief address by Col E. M. House. chairman of the American mission. Colonel House, who delivered the clos ing address at the request of Premier Clemenceau, said:
 'M. Clemenceau, president of the French council, in welcoming the dele gates to this conference, declared that we had met to work. His words were prophetic. There has been co-ordi- nation and a unity of purpose which promises great results for the future.
 It is my deep conviction that by this unity and by concentrated effort we shall be able to arrive at the goal which we have set out to reach.
 Tn behalf of my colleagues I want to avail myself of this occasion to thank the officials of the French gov ernment, and through them the French people, for the warm welcome and great consideration they have shown us. In coming to France we have felt that we were coming to the house of our friends. Ever since our government was founded, there has been a bond or interest and sympathy between u5 sympathy which this war has famed into passionate admiration. Tie history of France is a history of cour- age and sacrifice. Therefore the great deeds which have illuminated the last three years have come as no surprise to us of America. We know that when called upon, France would rise to splendid achievement and would add lustre to her name.
 America salutes France and her heroic sons and feels honored to fight by the side of so gallant-a comrade."

 SUBSTITUTE FOR WHISKY
 A number of amusing incidents can always be found by 8 close association with the men of any command at Camp Mcclellan.
 One of the enlisted men in the Dela- ware battalion, knowing that Alabama is one of the dryest of the dry Sahara places as far as lring drink is concerned, recent decided that he would concoct s. Ferage which would be a good subj Ite for the article which in the df long gone brought cheer and tempo y happiness. Accord ingly he secured bottle or two of near beer, a collection of grape juice and few bottles of lemon extract.
 After he had followed the directions given him as to the mixing of these in- gradients, he proceeded to fill up on the concoction. The mixture proved to be too strong for the man, whose thirst prompted him to attempt a substitute,

HATH MOVING, QUARTERS


 There is a scene of marked activity around the regimental quarters of the 114th infantry, composed of Delaware and New Jersey troops, which are now engaged in moving their quarters to the spot now occupied by the 116th in- fantry.
 As is usually the case in the army the officers and men may know why they are moving, but they do not ad- vertise the reasons through the col umns of the newspapers. The Delaware battalion of the 114th occupies quar- ters just east of the pike road, north of the main camp road, near the head quarters of Col. Charles L. Dulin, the chief quartermaster, who made world-record in building the Mcclellan cantonment in 100 days, and the regi- men was considered to be one of the real show places of the cantonment site.
 A long row of officers tents on the right of the main road faced the com pany kitchen and mess halls, about 150 feet away, and the we'll drained, roll ing nature of the ground on which the company streets are located gives the regiment an appearance quite out of the ordinary. The air is full of rumors as to the reasons of the moving about, which is the order of the day in Camp Mcclellan this week.

Science shows conclusively that Catarrh cannot be permanently cured by depending alone on local treatment with sprays. douches, in halers and ointments.
 Catarrh is not local disease. It Is more than an inflammation of the membranes and air passages. When you are all choked up so that you can hardly breathe, your condition has been brought about by millions of tiny germs which have found lodg- ment in your blood.
 It is only by cleansing your blood of these diseases germs and driving them from your system that you can
