BRITISH ADMIRALTY HANDLES
 OVER SEVENTEEN MILLIONS

LONDON, June 22.-An example of the routing work carried out by the British Admiralty during the three and a half years of war is shown in the fact, that despite Ger many's submarines, 100000 pas sengers have been conducted in mili tary transports backward and forward to the various war theatres. The number of animals conveyed ex- ceeds 2,000,000. The number of ve- hicles carried was more than 400,- 900 and the quantity of stores trans ported was in excess of 35,000,000 tons.
 The British Admiralty has carried nearly 100000 tons of stores for the Italian government and also about 3,500,000 tons of coal for Italy in requisitioned steamers.

Red Blood and Courage |!
BY DR.. W. C. LUCAS.

What drives the men right up W the

any chance Of winning out With rich,
pure blood you can face any hardship,
reach aM goal. But You are handi-

Every tissue, bone, muscle, should take
from the blood certain materials aud
return to it certain others. When the
poisons accumulate in the blood perhaps
the face breaks out in pimpes, or bcils

we easily catch cold. -.

Bon Voyage

Nothing should meet with more
approval from the American people
than to know that their President,
who has piloted them safely over the
boisterous sea of war, will now cross
the deep to represent them on the
joyous land of peace. During all
these troublesome times and turbu-
lous waves Skipper Wilson has stuck
at the wheel with a grim determine
tion.
And now that the storm has abat-
ed, and the dove of peace has return
ed to he ark, bearing the olive
branch. it is with smooth sailing that
the new voyage will be made. But
similar principles will dominate rhis'
trip. There will be no varying from
the course the captain has always
pursued-that of mapping out
routs and refusing to be coaXed into
a shorter cut or different port.
And once safely landed in harbor
on the other side, we wish for the
sturdy skipper and his wife, the
warmest reception possible and the
best that Europe can offer, after four
years of devastation.
