Snake Problem.

This Is not new but it's worth re-
peating. A man in Zion City, ILL.,, sent
1t to the News:
Two Zion City snakes, Of which
there are abundance on the lake front
property, had fight. One was n gar
ter snake and the other a bullhead."
Each was three feet long and in their
ferOcity they seized each other by the
tail and proceeded to swallow each
other whole. They both started at the
same time and at the same rate Of
speed.
Now the question is, which of these
two snakes survived. or rather which
one was on the outside by the time the
other was swallowed, the garter snake
or the bullhead?
1t took five minutes for the two
snakes to swallow each other and they
both swallowed each other right to
the tip Of the fangs. Which one was
on the outside when they were finished
or were they both inside?-Indianap-

Kitty Goetz, one hundred years old,

never go to an institution for the aged.
True, the wind that had blown the roof

and they had nothing to eat. But they
weren't going to leave their homes just
for that. Spring would be coming soon.
Kitty left her nightdress on all day
to fool the police, for she reckoned
they wouldn't take lady through the
streets in her nightdress.
Then they heard purring sound,
which grew louder, then seemed to stop
just outside their door. They tottered
out and saw large, sleek automobile.

THE RUSSIAN ADVANCE

Try they will the Austro-G Ger mans cannot check the advance which
 being made by the Russians under General Korniloff against Lem berg, he Galician capital. Since the open ing of their offensive the Russians nave been making remarkable head way. They have succeeded not only In capturing much territory but they have taken large numbers of prison srs and quantities of supplies. and rom this state of affairs it shows that there is more than a strategic retreat underway by the central powers.
 Whether or not Russia has returned to activity before the enemy had an ticipated it or In advance of prepara- believing that the new campaign finds state and that the drive is for that reason being pressed with increased risor. Taking advantage of the con- ditions following the revolution, and while efforts were being made for separate peace, Germany and Austria withdrew many ef it's soldiers from the eastern front to fight against the British and French in northern France and Belgium and against the Italians in eastern Austria. Try as they will, even with such endorsements the central powers are unable to check the progress of the allies while the Russians are reaping the benefit ef their rest and the conditions which exist on tne eastern battle line.

eERMANY's TROUBLES.

Germany is having it's troubles within as well as without. It is a period of anxiety for the kaiser like no other which has been faced during the war for not only are his armies on the defensive and meeting with seri- ous reverses, and Austria in a state of uncertainty sufficient to give him plenty of worry during any of the spare moments that he may get, but right at home there are evidences of serious discontent which not only point to changes in the cabinet over the question Of policy but which may lead to 3 revolution as determined and far reaching as that which has oc- cured in Russia.
 There has been a demand in Ger many for some time that the terms on which it will make peace be an nounced. There IS also a demand that Germany abandon it's present subraa- rine warfare and let the world know that it is prepared to end the war without seeking any annexations or without demanding any indemnities. This, however, is not to the liking of Chancellor von Bethmann- Hoilwes. He insists that Germany can win if it holds out and that it must not de- part from it's purpose. That unques- tionably represents the attitude of the kaiser and such being the case he is bound to stand by the chancellor and sanction the supplanting of other members of the ministry with new men, which of course means men who are in sympathy with the chancellor's ideas.
 Such, however will not satisfy the demands which are being made by certain leaders in the reichstag, so that whatever changes are made now it is unlikely to improve the situation much. With the conditions as they are in Berlin and along the eastern and western front Germany shows serious signs of slipping, and it is a question whether it can overcome the tendency

CANNING LESSONS
Gooseberry-Canned, Jelly.

Tn the canning of gooseberries it is essential that care to be taken to duct. says today's bulletin from the National Emergency Food Garden Commission, which is cooperating with this newspaper in its campaign for thrift and for the prevention of waste in food products.

THE CALL FOR THE GUARD.

The long anticipated call of the president for the national guard has come. These state organizations have been prepared for it since the open ing of the war and have been indus trially at work for the purpose of bringing the number of their enlisted men up to the war strength and get ting ready their equipments for the time when they would be called into the federal service.
 The call which has been issued through the governors of the different states is for the purpose of complet- Ing all the details in connection with their departure for mobilization cen kers. points which are to be made known later. and at which points all such organizations are to be drafted Into the service of the United States for such duty as they may be called upon to perform, whether it be inside pr outside of the country.
 There is no question but what there will be q quick response to this call These guardsmen are for the most part ready to move at the present time and at the mobiiizati tion centers the entire body will be sworn in all together This will mean an addition of third of a million to the army of the nation, in addition to the regulars snd later on will come the army to be raised by conscription of nearly 700,- poo men, thus pushing the land forces ID to about a million and third.
 A large part of the national guard has had some valuable training through the activity which they par ticfpated in along the Mexican bor- der in addition to the knowledge which they previously possessed con- >erning the technicalities of war but following their draft into the federal service they will commence 8 term of intensive training which will make them still more fit for any defensive or offensive duty which they will be jailed upon to perform. And they wifi go with the confidence of the country that they will perform well whatever they are given to do.
