TO LIVE HONG!

A recipe given by a famous physician
for hong life was; "keep the kidneys in
good order Try to eliminate thru the
skin and intestines the poisons that
otherwise clog the kidneys. Avoid ea.-
ing meat as much as possible; avoid too
much salt, alcohol, tea. Try a milk and
vegetable diet. Drink plenty of water,
and exercise so You sweat - the skin
helps to eliminate the toxic poisons
and uric acid"
For those past middle life, for those
easily recognized symptoms OF inflam-
nation, as backache, scalding water"
or if uric acid in the blood has caused
rheumatism, rrusty" joints, stiffness,
get Anuric at the drug store. This is a
wonderful eAminator of uric acid and
was discovered by DIR. Pierce OF invalids'
Hotel, Buffalo, n. y. Ii your druggist
does not keep it send 10 cents TO DIR.
Pierce for trial package and YOU will
find that it is many times more potent
than lthia and that it dissolees uric
acid as hot water does sugar

LIFT YOUR CORNS
OFF WITH FINGERS
Tells show to loosen a tender corn
or callus SO II lifts out
without pain.

You reckless men and women who
are pestered with corns and who have
at least once week invited an awful
death from loekjaw or blood poison
are now told by Cincinnati authority
to use drug called freezone, which
the moment few drops are applied
TO any corn or callus the soreness is re-
heyed and soon the entire corn or cal
lus, root and all, lifts off with the fin
gers.
Freezone dries the moment it is APP
piled, and simply shrivels the corn or cal
lus without inhaming or even irritating
the surrounding tissue or skin. A small
bottle of freezone will cost very little
at any of the drug stores, but will posi-
lively rid ones feet of every hard or
soft corn or hardened callus. If your
druggist hasn't any freezone he can get
1t at any Wholesale drug house for you.

which the chop is quite useless in the eyes of the average British, has not the old quality. The ale, so experts say has grown thin and watery since the war. The mutton chops served now are only a trifle larger than the French lamb chop. t The British are taking their incbn- veniences gamely and few complaints are heard. Complaining about the food shortage or asking for extra DOT tions is regarded as breach of pa. triotism. Wearing new clothes is also looked upon unfavorably, plenty of shabby apparel being seen in mary of the fine hotels and theatres.
 The general opinion in England is that the United States will see that the most immediate need of the AL lies is food Military men hope that the German ship in American ports will be taken 6ver by the government and operated as food transports be- tween Am;rican and English and French ports.

ENCL- AND WANTS
 U. s. 10 SEND
 FOOD SUPPLIES
Official States Huge Food Cargoes More Desired
 Than Soldiers.

New York, April 12.-"If the Uni- combat the great food shortage" said a high British official in London in recent interview, "she will be lend- ing the empire the greatest assistance possible at this time. If America can arrange to send us huge quantities of food it will be of more actual assis- tance than either men, money or mu- nitions.
 'The beneficial. results would be felt throughout Great Britain and even as far as the various fighting fronts. This is true. despite the fact that the submarine blockade has proved flat failure and the real cris- is in the food situation has been safe ly passed. Every day sees the situa- tion improved and reports from our agricultural districts indicate bumper crops for this season.
 Nevertheless, there is shortage of food, particularly at home, due to the huge stores that are being sent to our armies in the field. Feeding our soldiers, and in many cases those of our allies, has strained England's re- sources to the limit and caused a food stringency in some of our big cities which German likes to attribute to the effectiveness of her blockade. But the U-boat blockade is not the vital factor in Englan nd's food situation that some people seem to think it is."
 Food Scarcity is Apparent
 One cannot spend many hours on British soil without becoming aware of the scarcity of food. In the poorer sections of cities like London, Liver pool and Manchester the pinch is be- ginning to be felt keenly. Potatoes cannot be had at any price in London except in one c% two of the best eat ing places, such as Simpsons the Cheshire Cheese and few other fa- nous chop houses.
 Guests dining in the big hotels are informed in advance that no potatoes will be served with any order. The manager of the Savo told the writer on the evening of March 29 that theEe wasn't potato in the hotel and that the prospects of getting any were very slight.
 In the Waldorf the same situation was encountered, the head waiter ex- hibiting marked surprise that any one should think of asking for potatoes. Rice, timed beets and corn-mostly from the United States-are served in small portions and an easy way to become unpopular is to ask for a sec ond helping. Brussels sprouts are be- ing widely used in lieu of potatoes.
 In Simpsons, probably the most fa- nous restaurant in London. they still Cfc boi1 patrons, but the slice one gets now adays has decreased alarmingly in size. The thick, juicy portions of old are seen no more. Simpsons is par ticularly popular now because it is one of the few places where an occa- siona1 potato can ,ge garnered.

SAYS SOCIALISTS
 STOPPED BELGIAN SLAVE SHIPMENTS
Reichstag Member Claims Credit for Kaiser's
 Recent Order.

Copenhagen via London, April 12.- In an open letter in the Vorwaerts addressed to the Swedish So ocialist, M. Granting, Herr Enedekum. socialist member of the Reichstag, claims that the socialists brought about a cessa- tion of Belgian deportations. The let ter is in answer to the charge that German socialists condoned the de- portations.
 Herr Enedekum asserts that his col leagues protested so strongly against the treatment of the Belgians that they caused the Emperor to issue his recent order directing that the depor- tation cease and that workmen all ready deported should be, returned to Belgium. The Socialist Deputy writes:
 After our protest no more Bel gians were brought to Germany, and most of those already there were sent back. Only those remained who de- sired to do so

ity of the Allied cause, it would be a graceful and rightly appreciated act. But this war is very serious busi- ness, and, for the national army which America proposes to create, the whole of her existing professional cadre is little enough. We shall not misun- derstand American action in the least if we have to wait some months until her first divisions, well equipped and thoroughly trained, make their ap- pearance in France.
 Hastily formed and untrained le- vies are useless. Our new armies in 1914 took nine months in forming before the first division ar rived in France, and this division took three months more to harden in trench warfare before it could safely engage in great attack. America may be able to curtail these periods and send over a few divisions this au- tumn, but it will hardly be this year that America Is adequately represent ed on the battlefield. Germany cer- tainly reckoned on this delay when she deliberately preferred the hostil- ity of the United States to abandon ment of ruthless submarine warfare" Suggests Training of
 Officers at Seat of War
 The writer emphasizes the necessity of systematic training of officers, and points out that the experience of the Allies has been that this is best done at the seat of war. He continues:
 Every facility will certainly be ac- corded by the Allies if America takes this hint from our experience, and sends batch after batch of officers and non-coms to be trained in our schools, or similar schools to be established by the American army. We full ly expect that American science and inventions will teach the United States a great deal when the Stars and Stripes comes 'over the water, but meanwhile elementary professional education of all ranks is as much a ne- cessity to the American army as it has been and still is for ours"
 The correspondent concludes by in- sisting on the necessity of countering the submarine menace before every thing else, in order to clear the Allan tic for the passing of the American army and supplies. ITO this task" he concludes, "the skill and valor of the American and Allied navies must be devoted"

MONTHS BEFORE ARMY COULD GO
 TO WAR FRONT
Long Course of Training Would Be Necessary, View of Military
 Experts.

Washington, April 12.-Oficers of Gs Army General Staff noted with satisfaction to-day that military crit sss of some British newspapers fully recognize the fact that the United States is faced by months of army training before a force could be sent abroad with any reliance in its ability to take it's place beside the veterans ct the French and British armies in .4le trenches. The situation as out lined By the London Times critic states exactly the views of American military experts.
 The Army bill now before Congress was carefully framed by Secretary Baker after thorough discussion with his military advisers. Its purpose is first to provide for an army to train the first increment of troops to be summoned by draft several months from now. It will take minimum of 100,000 officers and men in that force with instructors. The prelim mary use of the regular army and Ma tional Guard as contemplated in the bill, will be to produce that train ing force and at the same time fur nish a thoroughly trained army of half million men for whatever use it might be desired to make of 1t. Af- ter the. 100000 officers and non-com missioned officers have been with drawn and assigned to the new army. the first line troops will need period of further training. in which the men and onicers promoted to fill the va cancies can be seasoned to their new, ! duties The force will still act as l.. k~ 1I al training personnel for the second half-million or other additional forces called out,
 Eight or Ten Months of Training.
 Presumably these first line troops after eight or ten months of training could furnish a thoroughly trained and equipped expeditionary force, if that were desired. They would be formed successive waves of supports and reserves which could go forward as need arose Tn effect, the Admin istration bill provides for setting up and maintaining system which will promptly duplicate any force sent to the front in an additional reserve line under training at home, leaving al- ways three lines of not less than 500,- 900 men who are either ready or being put in readiness for actual fighting.
 British Experts Views.
 London. April 12.- The Times nili- itary correspondent, discussing Ameri- can participation in the war, heartily endorses the apparent intentions of the American Government to use the regular army and the National Guard as nucleus for the formation of a national army. He recalls whata se- rioqs disadvantage it was to Great Britain to be compelled to throw ther regular forces into the fighting line in 1914 because of Frances urg- ent need of help. ls
 If the United States" he says, scarse t0a send a regiment or two to London or Rome to affirm the solidar-
