Our Boys at the Front

Our boys are distinguishing
themselves by their cleanliness
and jovial spirits while at the
front. They believe that "Clean-
liness is next to Goodness"
1t is an indisputabIe fact that
people can keep healthy and well
in no better way than by keeping
their bodies clean, inside and out
Many thousands of people are
killed every year by allowing
toxic poisons to accumulate within
The body, and then they fall vic
inns to fevers and all sorts of
naladies with special names. The
only way to keep thoroughly well
S to drink plenty of water daily.

rich Won Bernstorff is sure to be
mentioned again in connection with
the vacancy in the Wilhelmstrasse.
But he, too, stands little chance, it is
believed inrwell-informed circles, for
the two main reasons that he is re-
garded as leaning toward pacifism
and that his record in the United
States as uncovered by the American
secret service precludes in his case
the prestige which Berlin naturally
considers its foreign minister should
have in the eyes Of the world at
large.
The best bet Is that the man who
steps in Kuehlmann's shoes will be
n bitter ender" of the first order.
He may be -camoufiaged as a peace
lover as was Hertling when he took
the helm. but unless all signs are
deceiving he will be a pawn in the
hands Of the Ludendorffists. Admiral
Won Pintze-his naval title sufficient
ly marks him as persona grata
with the sword rattlers-is thought
more likely than any of those named
to get the place.
So much is certain-the name of
Kuehlmann's successor will tell vol
umes as to how the wind blows in
the Kaiser's ranks.

The effect upon women's and mems
styles II the proposed tax schedule
were adopted would be startling, to
say the least. All 5ewelry would be
under the ban. canes would disappear
or pay q heavy tax. and clothing and
shoes would be restricted In price far
below what Is now paid for them. A
great many women would ind II hard
to limit themselves to pair OF shoes

30 to 40 per cent as compared with
last year. A report from the COM
mittees stated that bark was worth
from $1,000 to $1400 per cord, t. o. b.
cars, and further advances were ex-
pecte1, in as much as the shortage
is very large Bark peelers are de-
handing $500 day where they form
erly received only $1.25 and the de-
mand for lumber is so urgent that II
is being cut without peeling.
H. Heinemann was appointed COM
mittee of one to take up with Mr.

which applies to taxes on logs and
