STRIKES in the Embne.

Il is natural that the American people should
rejoice over the news Of strikes in Germany but
they should beware of Overestimating the true sig
niicance OF these troubles. As Ex-President Taft
so saneIy points out. Germany's internal difhcul-
ties in themselves will never end the war only a
decisive victory by the Allies a series of deci-
sive victories can do that.
Into her armies Germany has put her full
strength. They dominate the nation and so long
as they remain mistaken, they fully capable
OF dominating any clique or organization in the
nation. To put down dissatisfaction among a
lesser class N the empire is comparatively sim
pie task for the lords who have forged
lighting machine that has become the peril of the
world. Once the Allies have penetrated the v.taIs
OF this peril and blasted the morale of its men,
bers there will De time enough to look hopefully
toward revolution. Until then a German reyolu-
tion of any consequence cannot be expected ny the
most optimistic.
Already the latest reports from Berlin indi-
cate that the iron leaven of militarism has begun
to work. The upheayaI is being subdued, the fire
or dissatisfaction stamped out t IS the signal for
us to buckle down to the fulfllment OF our deter
mfnation to beat Germany with her own tools with
no false hope of satisfactory peace from any
other source

TRAVELETTE

TIMGAD.

Timgad is an ancient Roman city, forgotten
and buried on the slopes of the Aures Mountains.
The desert winds heaped the market places and
ruined streets with shifting sand; the jackas and
birds of prey made the stately forum, with its
crumbling columns, their haunts and hunting
grounds. For centuries Timgad lay deserted and
forgotten, unvisted except by occasional wander
ing caravans.
In recent years, however, the city has been par
TALLY restored and eXcavated by French architects
and archaeologists. The columns of the facade of
from the mosaic floors of the ruined baths, whose
Roman splendor. The arch of Trajan over one of
the two main streets, stands it did in the days
of the great emperor, the founder of the city The
amphitheater, typically Roman held at least four
thousand spectators in the days when gladiatoriaI
combats were considered respectable.
Outside the city walls are tiny Arabian market
dates to the visitor Near the market stalls are
ancient wells, their sides worn by the chains of
water buckets long since crumbled to dust The
curios found in the ruins kept. There are bits
of pottery tiny statues and worn books found in
the ruined public library founded by some homan
Carnegie.

its short career repeatedly invaded destroyed and

PRODUCE SUGAR CARD

London, Feb. 23.-Before you can
be buried in England your sugar card
must be produced. The registrar of
vital statistics, before he issued a
certificate of death, is required to
make certain whether the dead per-
son was registered under the sugar
distribution scheme. This is done, 1t
is said, to prevent fraud, as unscrup-
ulous persons might continue to use
a dead mans sugar card for long
time unless some means were taken

HOW PRICES INCREASED
IN THE LAST 25 YEARS

Portage, Wis, Feb. 23.-E. r. Stu
dCnmayer who has been engaged in
farming in this locality for the past
quarter of century, has made q
comparison between prices prevail
ent in 1892 and those Of 1917. Here's
what he found Hogs in 1892 were
$3.50, now SIG; cattle $3.50. now $1O
ry 4Oc, now $1S5; wheat 45c, now
$3.50: potatoes 1Oc now 81 butter
15c, now soc; eggs SC, now 42c; cord
wood $3.50 now $3.50; bran $15, now
$40; hay IS. now 500 and oats 1Sc,
now 75c
The farmer says these are only a
few of the changes, and while agri-
culturists are obtaining decidedly
better prices than twenty-five years
ago, they are compelled to pay more
for what they buy.
