IS cents and gives you a full pint-a
family supply-of a most effectual
pleasant tasting remedy. 1t keeps per-
fectly.
It's truly astonishing how quickly it
acts, penetrating through every air
passage of the throat and lungs-loosens
and raises the phlegm, soothes and heals
the infaned or swollen throat mem
bTanes, and gradually but surely the
annoying throat tickle aud dreaded

Il feel that Kansas people only
need to be shown this element of
thrift, how small investments in them
selves will amount to big sums If

Kansas farmer to consider this new
idea of finance and national welfare.
For him an investment returning a

is safeguard for the lack of which
many Kansas farmers, because Of vi

FLY 6 MILES HIGH
Latest Invention Makes q. S.
Airmen Immune to Gun Fire.
Oxygen Device OvercOmes Air
Rarity at Enormous Height.

Washington, Oct. 16.-Aircraft fly
ing the stars and stripes may lombard
Berlin from a height of six miles
thru the latest invention of American
scientific genius. At this height Ger
man defending planes and guns would
be useless.
This unheard of height can easily
be attained by the Liberty Motor"
according to all experts. The only diff
ficuhy has been that in such rari-
fled atmosphere the aviators them
selves could do nothing: the terrific
demands on their lungs are too great
to permit other action. Airplanes
have attained heights of $4,000 feet
but the difficulty of breathing all but
made the aviators powerless.
Now American science steps in with
the twin of the Liberty Motor. Lib
erty Oxygen" is it's name and it is a
respiration device which automatical-
ly supplies to the flyer the oxygen
which is lacking in the natural air at
high attitudes.
German Flyers Would BE POwerless.
The device is the joint production
of experts of the aviation section and
army medical corps. 1t is hailed by
the government here and by the in
ternational experts on aviation in
Washington as the solution of the last
problem of the air and an assurance
of superiority in the air to America
and her allies for the remainder of the
war.
American and allied aircraft can

that every person who has failed to

Ample notice and every opportunity
has now been given and there Is no
longer any argument upon which the

KING CONSTANTINE
ADVOCATES THRONE
OPPOSED SOVEREIGN HAS BEEN
SUCCEEDED BY HIS SECOND
SON, PRINCE ALEXANDER.
Climax in Affairs Of Greece Brought
About Through Joint Efforts Of
Entente.-Deposed Sovereign
viii Quit Native Country.

Athens.-King Constantine of Greece
has abdlcated his throne in favor of
his second son, Prince Alexander, and
with Crown Prince George is to leave
Greece.
The abdication was made on the de-
mand of the entente powers and thus
ends the anomalous situation which
long has existed in Greece because OF
the refusal of Constantine and his fol-
lowers to acqulesce in full in the de-
mands of the entente allies for the
freedom of movement of their forces
In and through Greece and for their
safety from attack.
That the entente was prepared to
move with expedition in bringing
change in the situation in Greece Is
indicated by the fact that simultan-
eously with the arrival in that country
of the French senator, Jonnart, who
| bore plenary powers to act for the en-
tente, came the occupation by the
Italians in northwestern Greece, near
the Albanian frontier, of the strategic
town of Kanina, and by other entente
forces of Elassona, In northeastern
Greece, situated at the foot of Mount
Olympus and near the Gulf of Salon
Xxi.
Both the former king and Prince
George, it was announced by Premier
ZaImis, intend to leave the country
Immediately. 1t Is reported that they
| win embrak on a British warship and
proceed to Switzerland by way Of
Italy. 1t is presumed that Prince
Alexander will take up his kingly
duties with full acceptatiOn of the
ideas which the protecting powers de-
sire to be put into effect in the gov
eminent of Greece during the present
war. He is "a years old and has been
free from antientente proclivities.
The reign of Constantine / as king
Of the Hellenes was brief, dating only
from March 10, 1913, when his father,
George /, was assassinated in Salon
Xxi.
Brief as the reign was, Constantine
had enjoyed prior to the beginning of
| tA0 SKeht WIZ III 1013p pcIiOu VI AC-
markable popularity and had In
creased the territory of the Greek
monarchy by over so per cent. His
attitude of opposition toward the en-.
tente powers when their troops occu-
pied part of Greek territory in the
Macedonian campaign against the
TeutOnic allies, however. brought him
into conflict with the statesmen of
Greece and resulted in the establish
ment Of a provisional government
headed by Eliphtherios Venizelos
whom the king had driven from the
post of premier.

result of the influence of Queen
Sophia, sister of the German emperor

that he was actuated not by pro-Ger
man sympathies but by considerations
Of the welfare of the Greeks.
