In indianapolis
For Is Years
DR.. Culver, the Venerable Old
Specialist Of the Interstate
Doctors Local Office
Has Noted Career.

Doctor Culver, the specialist in
charge of the Richmond office on the
second floor of the Starr building, has
had twenty-five years practical ex.
perience as a general practitioner In
indianapolis, besides having been a
lecturer on pathology for a number OF
years in one of the standard medical
colleges. a branch in medicine that
peculiarly fits q teacher for different
ating diseases.
There are plenty Of doctors who
can treat case if they know what is
the matter with the patient. But it is
an admitted fact in medical circles
that there are few good diagnosticians.
No invalid can afford to be expert
mented with, for in most chronic
cases a months loss of time means
drifting into a hopeless case. Besides
all physicians agree that medicines
that don't benefit you are sure to
harm you in one way or another. The
Interstate Doctors make their dag
nosis absolutely certain before they
commence to treat case, even going
SO far in most cases as to examine
the secretions, excretions and the
blood both by microscope and scten-
tific chemical means. This being an
established fact, anyone is safe in 60
ing to their office, for they give you
this rigid $40 examination absolutely
free and hold out no false hopes to
the individual. No contracts to sign,
no red tape-just plain matter-of-fact
talk. They solicit difficult and COM
plicated cases, and anyone calling at
their office will meet with a cordial
reception by Dr. Culver.
They have thousands of letters on
file from cured patients, and we re-
produce one here, feeling quite sure
that the people can rely with conf
dence on their friends and neighbors
right here in Indiana. Mr.. Johnson
is cultured man of high standing,
both in church and among his neigh
bors, and wouldn't allow his name to
appear to any signed document unless
it was absolutely genuine.

o fthe player than the old style bat
ting averages based wholly by the
number of hits made by each man in
a season.
One of the features of the present
season is the boistehous hitting of
Carlisle Smith, third baser of the
Boston Braves, who is one of the
leaders of the National league, with
swat average that hovers around
400. That his stick performance is
no fash is indicated by the fact that
Smith has played in about fifty games.
And yet up to this season he never
has been claSsed as 800 hitter,
though he has come within a few
points of it couple of seasons, nota-
bly, last year, when he batted .295.
That was the best he has done since
1918, and there were hints before the
season started that he might not be
a regular because Manager Stallings
wanted a stronger hitter at third base.
Smith might have heard of it and
decided to show his. manager. He's
showing him at any rate and he's
showing the rest of the league in a
way that makes him the batting SEN
sation of the majors to date. Smith
first attracted prominence in baseball
while playing third base for the At
lanta club of the Southern Associa-
ton.

HUNS ENDEAYOR TO
HEAD OFF DISASTER
GERMANS FIGHTING DESPERATE.
LY TO SAVE WHAT THEY CAN
BEFORE THE ONRUSH.

London. Hard fighting is pro-
ceeding in all sections of the line
from scissors to Rheims, according
to dispatches reaching London, but
always with the allies on the often
siye and the Germans fighting despe-
rately to save what they can before
the 0nrush.
The French captured As more guns
including six of large caliber, in the
fighting along the Marine, where the
Germans were compelled to retreat
very hastily, leaving behind large
quantities of material of all kinds.
Although the Germans are fighting
bitterly along the bottom of the Sc
lient. there are indications that they
realize that retreat is inevitable,
for they are burning villages several
miles behind their lines, and there is
a great congestion of troops around
the top OF the salient, which may lii
dictate preparations for a new line.
With the district south of the Marine
cleared of Germans, the allies are
constructing bridges and getting large
bodies of troops and supplies across
for pursuit. The Germans undoubt-
eddy will continue to fight stubboraly'
to hold the salient, but if things con-
tinue to go we'll with the allies in
their attack, the enemy is likely 10
be forced back to the line of the Riv-
er Vesle which offers good defenses
and has good communications.
One of the German high command
actively engaged in endeavoring TO
find some way of holding up the
American forces at the bottom of the
pocket, is Major General He'll, form
erly Field Marshal Won MacKenzens
chief of staff, who recently was sent
to the West front from the Ukraine.
The Americans captured several doc
uments bearing General Helrs sigma

Plans Are Taking Shape Rapidly a.

Washington. With probably no:
much more than 100000 American
troops engaged in the present battle
but with virtually 100000 Others
either in France or fastening across
the ocean to join in the fight, General
Foeh has been able to turn the tables
on the enemy and strike blow that
has changed the whole trend of the
war.
Officials here, while fully recogniz-
ing the fact that the Americans dre
today only a comparatively small part
of the vast forces General Foch is
using in working out his trategic de-
signs, realize that the American army
is going forward in a constantly in
creasing stream is the governing fac
tor in restoring the initiative to the
allied forces. Plans are taking shape
rapidly at the War Department to
accelerate and enlarge the American
military program.
Ii is now virtually certain that
General Foch will have at least p
100000 American troops before the
present lighting season closes. Sec
rotary Baker announced the War De-
partments new program embraces en-
larged army appropriations, modifica-
tons of the draft ages to increase

give no details, but the plans proba-
bly, aim at getting under arms with
out delay total force not far short
of the 100000 figure widely discuss
ed in Congress when the subject was
last under consideration there.
The fighting in the Aisne salient,
where the whole German offensive
scheme has been upset if not definite.
ly defeated by the bold strategy of
General Foch, has opened new posi-
bilities. There is increased need for
haste officials believe, in getting full
American man power ready to supple
ment the efforts that appear now TO
be taking shape toward hurting the
enemy back along the front and be-
ginning the advance that will end on
~ with victory.
Reports indicated that fully half of
all ground won by the Germans in
the Aisne salient has been torn from
the enemy's grasp and the French,
British and American troops were
still pressing on.
Mr.. Baker said that the last reports
from General Pershing were satisfac-
tory It was clear, however, that
the minds of officials here are en-
crossed in preparations for offensive
battles on an even larger scale.

FRANCO AMERICANS
BREAK GERMAN LINE
ENEMY MACHINE GUNNERS ARE
MOVED DOWN AS ALLIED RE-
IMPROVEMENTS ARRIVED.

With the American Army on the
Marne.-The French and Americans
have broken through the German line
northwest of Chateau Thierry.
The French and Americans, driving
the spearhead toward the northeast,
have already advanced five kiIometers
e LILO miles, at various places.
The allied troops have taken many
prisoners, including three officers, who
said they were tired of the war.
American infantrymen captured the
German IT'S. Previous to the break
ing of the German lines the allies bat
tied with the desperate machine gun
ners, who were moved down as the
allied reinforcements arrived. The
German losses were terrible.
An attack from Chateau Thierry to
Rheims began on Saturday American
forces captured Hill No. 1913, north of
Vaux, and advanced more than two
klometers. At last accounts they
were more than holding their own
against German resistance.
The German retreat across the
Marine began under cover of a great
smoke screen. At last accounts great
hordes of Germans were continuing
north. Organized resistance has been
met with so far only at a few places.
The district south of the Marine
and east of Chateau Thierry is entire
ly cleaned of Germans. Two badly
cut-up German regiments were left
south of the Marine at the German re-
treat. Allied aviators bombed the
bridges across the river, and their es-
cape was impossible.
All Saturday night the allies ham
mered away at the widening wedge
between the Germans and Paris as
the Germans withdrew north of the
Marine. Americans continue taking
prisoners and guns Allied rein
forcements are pouring in to over
come any determined resistance the
Germans may attempt
The heavy artillery of the allies
continues the clearing of districts
north of the Marine. Indian scouts
who were with Pershing in Mexico
played prominent work in the scout
work in the river.

suggestions for a peace conference to

The suggestions are:
"First-Germany wants no annexa-

sSecond-The peace treaties with
Russia and Roumania may not be
questioned.
Third-The principle of self-deter-
animation of peoples has not been dis

Fourth = The Balkan question il

table.
'.Fifth-The freedom of the seas,
the dismantling of Gibraltar and the
Suez canal and the right for Ger
many to use coaling stations
Sixth-The colonial question is to
be settled on the basis of the status
quo"
The Vorwearts CONSIDERS tnls
very reasonable peace programme.
The term status quo" applied in
the foregoing to the German colonial
question has been rather loosely used
IN the past in connection with the so
tuition of various problems. In gen
eral it has been employees as as an
abbreyiation of the term status quo
ante bellum."
Germany's position heretofore, as
indicated by her leading statesmen,
has been one of insistenee upon the
return of her colonies. and there has
been nothing in the recent utter
ances of the German leaders tending
10 show that this attitude had beeu

the pawn" held by Germany in the
shope of Belgium was intended to
be used to secure the giving back OF
her former colonial possessions
