That story that James d. Grist gives
US from an old campaigner about the
soldicrly qualities Of Gen. Pcrshing Is
quite interesting. and from what We
happen 10 know about the old soldier
from whom the information comes, we
believe IL is true. That Pershing can
both talk and write. we have not the
slightest doubt: but we don't imagine
that he does any moro Of either than
he is obliged to do. We are inclined to
think that most Of his more extended
public utterances are more Or less
elaborated by newspaper men. without
improving them q great deal, however.
But there is one speech by Gen. PERISH
ing which we would say Is pure and
unadulterated, and that is the speech
which he made at the grave of the
great French patriot and soldier who
contributed 50 much to the original es-
tablishrlent Of American liberty. There
were only five words Of il and the
whole world remembers what they
were: well, Lafayette. we are here"

celebration of the Tooth birthday o.

celebration Of the Tooth birthday or
their fine old aunt. Miss Susan Pursley'
is a most capital one. People VINO
know Miss Pursley would be glad 70
honor themselves in the celebration OF
any OF her birthdays: but the opportu-
nity to participate in the celebration OF
the Tooth birthday Of anybody carries
an appeal that extends far beyond the
limited circle OF the friends and ac-
auaintances OF any one. AS we see II
the picnic idea was about the best pos
sible solution Of the problem presented
i'm this case. That there will be tre-
mendous crowd present we do not
doubt, and that there will be plenty OF
refreshments for everybody goes with
out saying. And the balance OF the
programme is equally fitting. 1t goes
without saying that the addresses TO De
expected from the speakers who have
been selected will be worth the while
of a trip Of many miles and fully wor-
thy of the remarkable occasion.

There is apparent conflict in the
statements of British and American
officials as to how much the British
navy and merchant marine and how
much the American navy and mer-
chant marine did in the matter OF
transporting the American army 10
France The British seem to claim
credit for well-Ligh all of it. and the
Americans claim credit for well-nish
half Of it. Although Britishers are
not inclined TO brag about the feats Of
common soldiers or individual officers;
when they get to talking about Great
Britain as Il whole they are unable to
appreciate that anybody else is to be
considered at all. But America in view
Of what she has done. and what she
knows she can do. has no occasion 10
feel jealous.

HARDIN TRYING TO BRING LIGHT
 INTO GERMANY

London, Jan. 28-Maximilian Har- Gin devates 8 closely printed pages in the latest issue of Die Zukunft to reproducing "the real texts" of the re- cent speeches of President Wilson and Premier Lloyd-George. He says that thoughtful and conscientious men should read the speeches quietly and without prejudice and criticises in an astonishingly outspoken manner Ger many's attitude toward Austria in the conduct of the Russian negotiations.
 Herr Hardin virtually accuses Ger many of forcing Austria-Hungary into the war and says peace might have been obtained in the first week ir Brest-Litovsk if the Germans had not posed as conquerors and had not demanded territory. Alluding to President Wilson's speech. he says:
 Belief is still firm that peace is possible and that the cleavage be- tween the two fighting groups no longer is so wide that it can be filled only by new heaps of corpses. It will, however, widenGinto an un- bridgeable' gulf if the people again refuse to acknowledge a changed world.''
 He pleads for the sanctity of trea- ties, a reduction of armament, the self determination of nations, and fears a continuation of the question of Alsace-Lorraine.

HALF HOUR SOUL KISS HOLDS UP
 N. Y. ELEVATOR

New York, Jan. 29-Every time Philip Harris took Pauline Hendler up in the elevator he operated in the office building at 134 West 18th street his heart rose as high as the cage went Each trip the girls beauty sent his heart going like a trip hammer, until Saturday, when taking Pauline to the office where she works as a typist, he stopped the car between the third and fourth floors, seized Pauline in his arms and kissed and hugged her for fully half hour, while ten ants on all the floors stormed about the poor elevator service and walked up and down stairs.
 Pauline, who is only IT, was too terrified to scream. At last Philip desisted and asked Pauline what floor she wanted.
 She said the ground floor and ho let her off there. In a minute Pauline was back with a policeman, and an hour later Philip was on his way to the workhouse to serve 10 days. Tn Jefferson Market court some one made the plea that Philip was only a boy and perhaps a little too ardent.
 "Yes, yes," said Magistrate Corri- gan. "but a half hour is a half hour. and besides, look at the people who had to walk up and down stairs in that building" Pauline lives at 9S Seventh street.

RED FLOODED MEN FIGHTERS
They Rule the World

Red blooded men are born leaders in every walk of life and fight ln- telligently with both brain &nd mus cles. They are always live wires smiling and full of ginger; keen, alert on their toes and ready for anything that comes their way. Work is pleasure and they land on top every time.
 You will not find a strong success full man or woman trying to plug along with poor health or weak nerves. They know better they are wise and see to it that their blood has plenty of good fresh Iron and their nerves at all times loaded with Phosphates-the nerve food.
 A leading doctor says, "Show me a strong, healthy successful man or woman and you can bank on it every time, their bodies are just loaded with Iron and Phosphates." Another prominent physician says, There is no need of anyone going through life sickly, miserable, played out, Jagged and nervous when Phosphated iron will always put energy and vigor in the body mind and nerves" This same doctor also said, With the sys- tenn loaded with ,Phosphated Iron you can fight lifes battle at any stage of the game and be a winner at every turn"
 MT. Run Down man or woman in any stage of life, if you feel all in, your nerves are all shot, and life seems like one continual drag and drudgery from day to day, get next to yourself, wake up, take a brace. Lay in a supply of Phosphated Iron and take a new lease on life. You will once again feel like a live one and face the world with the smile that wins. Are you game?
 To insure physicians and their patients receiving the genuine Phos- phated Iron, it has been put up in capsules only, so do not allow dealers to. give you tablets or pills. Insist on capsules Hindle's Drug Stores and leading druggists everywhere.-Adv.

Other fhou- sands in other sections of the country have added their testimony, and all unite in proclaiming Linonine the most ecective medicine of its kind known to science. Relief is wrought by removing the swellings and irrita- tions that cause the disturbances.

EVERYONE.
 HEARD ABOUT IT
All want to try new drug that dries up corns so
 they lift out.

Good news spreads rapidly and druggists here are kept busy dispen- sing freezone, the recent discovery of a Cincinnati man, which is said to loosen any corn so it lifts out with the fingers.
 A quarter of an ounce costs very little at any pharmacy, but is said to be sufficient to rid ones feet of every hard or soft corn or callus.
 You apply just a few drops on the tender, aching corn and instantly the soreness is relieved, and soon the corn is so shriveled that it lifts out with out pain. It is a sticky substance which dies when applied and never inflames or even irritates the adjoin- ing tissue.
 This discovery will prevent thou sands of death annually from lackjaw and infection heretofore resulting from the suicidal habit of cutting corns.-Adv.
