PRESIDENT AND
MRS. WILSON SAIL
ON EUROPEAN TRIP
Continued from Page 1)

Tumulty had been very eager to ac-
company the president, but that he
yielded TO the wishes OF Mr.. Wilson
who believed Mr.. Tumulty was need
ed in Washington.
Extraordinary precautions were
taken by the secret service. Capt.
John ]. Henry and his entire Wash
ington staff accompanied the presi-
dent. Meanwhile, 200 secret service
xperts had thoroughly examined the
George Washington and the loyalty
of every officer and seaman on
board was proved.
After the president stepped aboard
the ship virtually was sealed, even
army officers of high rank being
barred. George Creel, chairman OF
the committee on public informa-

HEALTH TALK
SPANISH INFLUENZA OR
GRID
By DR.. Lee II. Smith

An old enemy is with us again,
and whether we fight a German or
germ, we must put up good fight,
and not be afraid. The influenza
runs very brief course when the
patient is careful and if we keep the
system in good condition and throw
off the poisons which tend to ac-
cumulate within our bodies, we can
escape the disease. Remember these
three C's-a clean mouth, a clean
skin, and clean bowels. To carry off
poisOns from the system and keep
the bowels loose, daily doses of a
pleasant laxative should be taken.
Such a one is made of May-apple,
leaves of aloe, root of japlap, and
called DR.. Pierce's Pleasant bullets.
Hot lemonade should be used freely
If attacked by cold, and the patient
should be put to bed after hot mus
tard footbath.
To prevent the attack OF bronchi-
It's or pneumonia and to control the
pain, Anuric tablets should be OBJ
tanned at the drug store, and one
given every two hours, with lemon
ade. The Anuric tablets were first
discovered by DR.. Pierce, and, as
they flush the bladder and cleanse
the kidneys, they carry away much
OF the poisons and the uric acid.
1t is important that broths, milk,
butermilk, ice-cream and simple diet
be given regularly to strengthen the
system and increase'the vital resist
ance. The fever is diminished by
the use OF the Anuric tablets, but in
addition. the forehead, arms and
hands may be bathed with water
(tepid) in which tablespoonful OF
salaratus has been dissolved in 4
quart. After an attack OF grip or
pneumonia to build up and strength

New York, Dec, 4.-President
Wilson's special train from Wash
ington arrived at Hoboken at 7:30
a. m., today. Long before the train
arrived there was unusual activity
about dock No. 4, at Hoboken,
where the transport George Wash
ington was moored. Workmen were
busy throughout the night putting
the finishing touches on the liner
and completing the elaborate deco
rations OF the pier.
The usual barred zone was wide
1y extended and only those trmed
with special passes were allowed
to approach the streets leading to
the dock. Military police kept an
all-night vigil over the route from
the railroad station to the pier,
while hundreds OF agents of the
secret service and OF the army and
navy intelligence service watched
the side streets and kept inquisi-
tive persons on the move. War YES
sells kept a ceaSeless patrol OF the
waters near the transport, while,
at dawn, army airplanes circled
over the vicinity and maintained
watch from the air. Perhaps never
before have such elaborate plans
been mapped out to guard the pres
ident.
The long pier was decorated gay
ly with thousands of flags and bunt
ing. A canopy, consisting OF mass
of American flags and embelms OF
the allies, extended over the gang
plank.
Stewards and their assistants
worked well into the night complet-
ing their arrangements for the com
fort OF the party. Photographs
were installed in the gentlemens
smoking room and the ladies' loung
ing room, the records ranging all
the way from grand opera selcc-
tions to popular war songs and jazz
band music. Half dozen card ia
bles were nailed to the floor OF the
smoking room, while the library
was rcplenished with historical and
scientific books.
The gymnasium was re-furnished
with punching bags, rowing ma
chimes, horses and other athletic .
equipment.
Two brass bands made the trip |
the ensington (kansas) band and
the sailors Great Lakes naval train

tons having been selected from

FOREIGN COMMENT ON
WILSON MESSAGE NOT
SUPER-ENTHUS|AST|C

Paris, Dec. 4.-Paris newspapers
print the principal passages OF
President Wilson's message to con-
gress, and special writer's comment
favorably.
Julien SoreI, writing in the Oui,
SAYS:
If President Wilson's speech
brings us no new information on in
ternational policy, it gives us sug-
gestions which may serve the allied
governments in approaching the dif-
fcult questions OF demobilization
which none had foreseen.'
Gustave Herve in La Victoire,
writes:
One passage Of the message in
terests us especially. 1t is that in
which President Wilson announces
his intention of asking congress to
make a special effort TO help the
economic restoration of France and
Belgium. 1t is not without deep graf
itude that France and Belgium will
learn Of this fresh demonstration OF
active and brothcrly sympathy on
the part Of the American people
Rene Daral, in the Gaulois, refers
to that part OF the message dealing
with the presidents visit to Europe
and says:
"The eminent statcman will not
be long in realizing that in the nego-
tiations of tomorrow the role OF ar
bitrator between the belligcrents, II
by chance, he thinks of assuming II
could only foster hopes Of intrigues
by the vanquished."
London, Dec. 4.-President VIII
,on's address TO the American con-
press is widely commented upon by
This mornings newspapers.
The Morning Post, while paying
tribute in the warmest terms to the
president and to American cooper
alton in the war, insist upon the i'm
portance Of the exact relation OF
the fourteen points to the pease
program being understood. 1t be
iieves the points would be accepted
too hastily by the allied govern
ments. He relies. however, upon the
presidents definition of them as an
outline OF the basis of peace and
regards them as "a Servlceable IN
strument with which to begin the
work of securing peace"
The Daily News asks anxiousIy
for evidences of the acceptance OF
the spirit of the fourteen points, the
letter of which was accepted, with
one exception, by the allies.
