The Rumanian government then was
informed that it must sign before noon
of March 5 a preliminary treaty en-
bodying these terms and that nego-
tiations would be resumed immedi-
ately with view to a further armis-
tice and the final conclusion of peace.
M. Toncheff said the preliminary
treaty between the individual coun<
tries would be drawn up in identical
terms, but in the final treaty, which
would require some alterations in the
wording, it would expressly stipulate
that Rumania cede the Dobrudja to
Bulgaria. The economic concessions
also would be set forth clearly, the
work of defining them probably occu-
pying some time.

Max Harris, son of S. P. Harris,
left St. Louis Friday night, July IL,
after successfully enlisting in the
Navy as a machinist's mate. He
was sent to the Great Lakes, ILL.,,

and unusual opportunities for rapid
promotion await him.
Petty officers of all ranks are ur-
gently needed in the Navy and officer
training camps for special instruc-
ton have been opened to enlisted
men. Three weeks after the recruit
cnlists, it is his privilege to enter
one of these camps, after passing
the entrance examinations, and then,
in two months, win promotion, pay,
and petty officer rank, that other
wise would require two or three
years service aboard ship.
Men who have served in the Navy
for years say this is lifetime OPP
portunity, because the lowest pay OF
any petty officer of the lowest rank
is SAL a month, while chief petty
officers, or the highest rank, fire.
quently receive $145.70 month.
This is all clear money.
One of these training camps or
schools is the Gunner's Mate School,
which turns out the man behind the
gun, and trains him in all there is to
konw about the big guns on ship,
and caring for them. This is a high
ly priced petty officer rank with the
men aboard ship.
The coxswain school, after two
months training, confers the rank of

cutter, or small boat, carried by our
men to war. This is fascinating
branch of the naval service, and a
coxswain frequently takes charge of
the crew of broadside gun, used in
repelling submarines.
The quartermaster, who is turned
out by the quartermaster school,
sends and receives all signals aboard
ship, such as the wig-wam, sema-
phore, etc., and has charge of all
flags, raising and lowering "colors'
morning and evening.

LEADING EDITOR
ENDORSES IROGEN.
Hon. Loring Brown Makes Remark
able Statement About New Dis


Among the latest of the many
noted men who have investigated
Irogen, the new discovery, and have
given it their unqualified indorse-
ment, is Hon. Loring Brown, recog-
nized as one of the country's leading
editors and progressive farmers.
Mr.. Brown is leader among farm
ers of the South. He was one of the
first advocates, both in his practice
and in his writings, of diversification
on the part of the Southern farmers
For many years he has been val
ued contributor to leading agricul-
tural journals thruout the United
States, as we'll as to the daily press,
among the latter, is the well known
Atlanta Journal.
Learning of the extraordinary re-
suits which had been obtained with
Irogen by people whom he knew
well, Mr.. Brown decided to investi-
gate for himself.
ION account of the nature of the
work in which l am engaged" said
Mr.. Brown, l felt at first some hes
itancy in giving my experience with
Irogen. The remarkable results
however, which / have secured from
its use fully justify me doing so.
There are thousands of people
who, in the spring of the year, feel
as did; and for that reason, after
giving Irogen thoro test, l decided
to give the public the benefit of my
experiences.
My duties, during the past year,
have been very exacting. Besides my
editorial work for various daily and
farm publications, have been called
upon to judge many stock and poul-
try shows thruout the South, and at
the same time have personally super
vised my large farming interests.
This proved severe tax on my
nerves and strength and the first
of the year l was off in weight and
in badly rundown nervous con-
dition. One of my friends noticing
my condition, suggested Irogen, and
l began taking it at once, with the
result that I feel stronger and better
than have in years.
Without doubt it is wonderful
medicine"
Coming, as this does, from a man
of such prominence and standing
Mr.. Browns statement regarding
Irogen has created widespread inter
est in the new discovery which is
proving the sensation of the scien-
lists and tho medical world.
