Ugh! Calomel makes you sick. It's

Calomel is mercury or quicksilver
which causes necrosis of the bones.
Calomel, when it comes into contact
with sour bile, crashes into II break

There is only one thing that has

that is congress.

GERMANY,s DESIGNS.

We have already shown how Germany
its merchant marine lying safely in harbOr
greatly increased despite the American
seizures, while over FIVE million tons of the
worlds shipping has been destroyed, its
factories working full time, its ware
houses bursting with merchandise pro-
duced by prisoners Of war-labOr cheaper
than in times of peace-would be the eco
nomic victor if peace were signed today.
Now comes the announcement from
Washington that she would be the political
victor as we'll.
Germany it will be remembered, when
she hurled her legions into Belgium reck-
oned on a short war. France paralyzed-a
swift mobilization against Russia before
the giant could stir his mighty limbs-then
world dominion, the ambition of the ages.
Came, however, the surprise of Belgium,
where two precious weeks were lost; came
the miracle of the Marine. And successful
though the offensive of our allies is-Our
offensive-today, we are still fighting on
the defensive, for Germany when her plans
were checked in one direction developed
her designs in another, and the great en-
pirc of Middle Europe the principal war
aim, is practically established.
Austria-Hungary is under the complete
domination of Germany; Bulgaria's auton-
omy is merely a faint shadow by moon
light; Turkey is a German province: Ser
bia, Montenegro and Roumania have been
.overrun.
Students of international politics have
long speculated on the possibility, but our
government is in possession of the abso-
lutte proof of the Prussic designs which a
premature outbreak of peace would enable
to be develOped-the consolidation of an
impregnable military and economical unit
from the North Sea to the Mediterranean,
permanently dividing Europe and control
ling the Dardanelles, the Aegean and the
Baltic seas.
Germany is today stronger from a mill
tary standpoint than when she entered the
war, because Of the practical conquest OF
her own allies; given a few years to thor
Oughly to PruSsianize the entire region, de-
velop an army beyond even present dreams
and create a gigantic heet-and subiuga-
ton Of the world would be merely a matter
of routine. Our allies realize the peru
our government does, but the people must
be made to understand rhe vastness of the
task, for it is not stretching things to say
that we are fighting fer our nationa! life
Our safety can be secured only By the
destruction Of autOcracy, the object oil
which we entered the war
There is no likelihood of the kaiser and
his class stepping down from power oil
their own accord. They have all to gain
by fighting, and nothing to lose; we have
all to lose by peace and nothing to gain
And, absolutely dominated by the iron tyr
any, there is slim possibility of the people
rising in successful revolution.
DeIiverance must, therefore. come from
the outside world-and the war will be Z
long one.
