usual methods of bombardment and assault
failed to gain the desired position, Halg
decided upon a mining operation never be-
fore attempted, never even dreamed in the
most impossible fiction. With one million
pounds-twenty-hve box Cars-of aminOl,
an explosive many times more powerful
than dvnamite-he blew the Germans
away. The earth opened and the German
line disappeared-th is something Cod
like in the tremendousness and in the sim
pIicity of it. Hill CO. about which such
desperate fighting has taken place, went up
in a geyser of fine dust.
But that is not all. For days the most
terrific artillery concentration since the war
began has been focused upon these positions
and the blast was simply the coup de glace
of an operation approaching the infinite
and it typeles the growing strength of our
allies, who outnumbered and without gun
powder, were forced from this ridge in the
perious days of 1914
Germans have reformed back of the
original position-that is to say, previously
prepared positions are occupied by German
troops, but they are in the valley now while
their enemies are on the heights More
over, they can not but be shaken at the
super-strength Of the allies, strength in
creased still further by the arrival of PERISH
ing abrOd, leading the first American army,
vanguard of countless millions, unlimited
wealth, unbelievable resources.

THIS DRUGGIST
WAS HONEST

Some time ago I went into the drug
store of Gerke Drug Co, Evansville,
Ind, and the following conversation
took place between Mr. Gerke and
myself: Theodore, how does it come
that you sell so much more Number
40 For the Blood than these other
druggists around here?" Mr.. Gerke
answered: "a year or so ago my wife
came into the store and said she was
going to take a blood medicine. She
looked over the kinds had on the
shelf and I reckon you put up the
best spiel as she took a bottle of 40.
After taking it awhile she gave it to
our boy and one day l was complain
ing of that tired feeling and she
said, here, I will dose you on 40' and
she did and it did me so much good
| have been recommending it to my
customers since and buy in gross
lots" J. c. Mendenhall, 20 years a
druggist, Evansville, Ind. The ingre-
dents entering into Number 30 are
set down in the U. S. Dispensatory
and other medical books as follows:
Employed in diseases of the glandu-
lar system, in blood poison, scrofula,
chronic rheumatism, catarrh, chronic
consultation, stomach and liver trou-
BILE. Under its use sores, ulcers,
nodes. tumors and swellings that
have withstood all other treatment
disappear as if by magic" No. 40 IS
sold by the Crystal Pharmacy.

Our correspondent has reason to know
that popular belief is wrong, BUT that does
not remove the fact that popular belief OF
the east considers the south indifferent to
the war. But has not the same been said
about the entire country; So why pick on
the south? Is it because the sound OF
shouting isn't so loud? Our population is
thinner. But it was a southern city
Pensacola-that held the first mass meet
ing in the entire country, endorsing Presi-
dent Wilson'S war message to congress
New York was second Flag Day rallies
last year drew out lrger proportion Of
the white population in the south than in
the east. If there are not as many flags in
the south as in the east today, it is because
our cities are smaller-anyWay, the war
isn't going to be tagged down. To the Lib
erty loan the south is subscribing its bit,
and more; in enlistment it has beat the east,
prOpOrtiOnately speaking. and there was
less agitation against registration here than
there.

INCREASING STRENGTH AGAINST
GERMANY

Haig's capture of the Messines ridge on
a ten-mile front, from a military stand
point, needs no comment. For months and
years this low range of hills, commanding
the British lines, resisted all attempts at re
capture. 1t was one more Of Germany's
impregnable positions.
But from moral standpoint the victory
was still more important. 1t showed the
illimitable, the cOsmic forces that have been
unleashed against Germany When the

Vivian Martin in "Giving Becky a
Chance"

Vivian Martin, the clever Morosco-
Paramount star, who will be seen at
the Bonita tomorrow in picturiza-
ton of Lois Zellner's interesting
story, Giving Becky a Chance" is
having a very hard time trying to
keep up her reputation. Through
some secret channel Miss Martin has
learned that thousands of young girls
throughout the country were using
her gowns as models for their own
and it is the problem of living up to
this and not showing any costume
that is not absolutely correct which
is causing Miss Martin many sleep
less hours; consequently, she has
found it necessary to keep in con-
slant communication with a leading
modiste in New York city and secure
from her the latest adv!ces in the
forthcoming styles. AS a picture is
taken some three or four months be-
fore it is released, Miss Martin has
to anticipate the public taste in or

JUNE II, 1917.
Sixty-Sixth Day of America in the War
WILSON'S NOTE TO RUSSIA.

President Wilson, in his recent note to
Russia, described the basis on which the
United States would consider peace mega
lively, as follows:
5 .s@nP 9s6s sA %bo 5 Soii 8 6a6e
Of lie and liberty says the commqncati0n those
that constitute payment for manifest wrongs done
such as viii tend to secure future peace Of the
people
Which, expressed positively, besides the
evacuation of the invaded territories, means
the restitution of Alsace-Lorraine, the lib
Grafton of Italians, Slavs, Roumanians
and Czecho-Siovaks from Austrian and
German domination, the freeing of :.,,'1-
Turkish populations from Turkish rule
the e1-Dulsion of the Ottoman empire from
Europe, the recreation of a new Polish
state, also the indemnifying of these coun-
tries for the criminal the unnecessary de-
struction, manifest wrongs"
This is, indeed, not indemnity in the
usual military sense-it is reparatiOn. The
whole world is suffering from the war but
Germany has suffered least of all, though
it has caused the most destruction, and it
is only right that Germany should restore
what she ruthlessly tore down. All the
money in the world, of course, can not re-
place the Rheims cathedral, but it can at
least compensate the French farmers for
their fruit trees wantonly hacked down; it
can rebuild their homes RACED, not for mill
tary, but for spite reasons.
In every French city, hamlet settlement
by the way-and doubtless the same is true
of other regions as well-aCCurate records
are being kept of every loss, of every crime
Wreaked by the Germans and are sent to a
special department in Paris, so that when
the day of reckoning comes, the total Of
the debt will be known.
The meshes of German intrigues, W.T.
adds, must be broken, bu. cannot be
broken unless wrongs already done are I'm
done, and adequate measures taken to pre-
vent it ever again being rewOven or re
paird."
It is in order to rebuild the engine of de
struction that Germany is making such
tremendous efforts for peace on a statu.
quo ante basis, but as President Wilson
says, it was the status quo ante tina
brought forth the war, and the rest Of tht
world endangered by Germany, must lool
to its own security.
And, then" says the president, in con
clusion the free peoples of the world mus
draw together in some common covenant
some genuine and practical cooperation
that will, in effect, combine their force t.
secure peace and justice in the dealing O
nations with one another
This is a future difficult of realztion a
best, but impossible if there are half-wa
measures in the present. There must be n
status quo ante if the world is to be mad
better and safer than before. As Wiso
says, we must either conquer or submit.

PATIENTLY HOPING.

Americans are as patient and as long
suffering as mankind in general, but the
wrath of mankind, once aroused against
oppression, has always been a terrible and
inVincible thing, and as Assistant Secretary
OF Agriculture EroOman says, woe to the
food gamblers" if prompt reforms are not
forthcoming.
Narrating instances Of the ''crime being
perpetrated on the American people by the
control of food prices by disIoyal food
pirates, Mr.. NrOOman says the tolerance
of Our people would have broken down long
ago if they did not have such absolute faith
in the government and believe that con
gross is going to give the president the
power to prevent the spOilatiOn OF the
nation by the SPECTATORS
Mr. NrOOman tabulates the four classes
and their motives, who are opposing the
reform, as follows:
The impractical theorists who on principle
are opposed to any increase in the authority OF the
Moqf aa tb b s6 the @ ts OF e h3n m
to take amy steps that viii make this government into
thrust 6pon US by Re greatest NJ most elensss m
| gary BowT the world has ever seen ,. 5000,
business jungle who in this decisive world conflict
treason toStRe rerubic as the blood noHey Of hungry
lean Citizens T6o WIT 6reason in 6eir hearts and
| living pretense their lips Selling
trihing detail proposed defensive legislation
prete" for a bitter opposition everything
help us to a decisive victory"
Possibly the second division is unneces-
sary; fanatical pacihsts are either imprac-
teal theorists or disloyaI Americans who
are doing all they can to prevent their
country's winning a decisive victory.
Ignorance, greed and treachery, ten
are holding back the legisIation Let Our
people remember this in considering the
vote Of congress; let our Representatives
understand that their motives will - open
to suspicion if they quietly submit to need
less delay, if, indeed, they don tbestir them
selves to the utmost that the question come
to a vote. The issue is plain-postpone
ment simply means further spOilatiOn. Tho
people demand action.

If there were more vegetarians, the

Now that the ball playing girls

Cross girls.
Inasmuch as the slackers know they
will be put in the most exposed places
