AS ANY OTHER PEST

Frankly, detesting his conduct as we do, we do not believe that La Toilette
 is a traitor. We do not think he is even pro- German. He is simply pro- La Toilette and the only aid and com
 fort he has in mind is to his own in
 sane ambition to occupy the White
 House. To enable him to exploit him
 self as 70 martyr" would serve only to encourage other spacious demagogues to seek like notoriety. Better by far is the method employed by the pa- triotic bankers of Missouri in dealing with their own Senator Reed whom they forbade to speak at their conven- ton banquet and who. after several 1 speakers had made pointed remarks about the necessity of patriotism | walked about the lobby, alone and ig- nored." The time may come when if ! wlll be necessary to deprive La Fol lette of official standing, but for the present let him be treated as any other pest. Because Wisconsin is the Badger state and was beGuilcd into sending to the senate q two-legged specimen of the most detested species of the badger family. it does not follow that patriotic
 men should be bound by "cenatorial
 courtesy to do more than hold their
 noses And that ought to suffice

THE DEVIL A SAINT WOULD BE

The kaiser posing as a champion of oeace and the welfare of humanity, CT, ,s he so urctuously designated him self to a Polish delegation some days 80, "a sincere champion of the princi- plcs which make for the welfare of hu- nanity and peace" is a sight sum- 'icntly grotesque to arouse the risa- 1ihties of a wooden image.
 The worlds greatest butcher, the Goliath of all human destroyers 'tandIng forth as a champion of princi- olcs making for the welfare of hu- nanity! The incarnation of Destruc- ton. the would-be despoilcr of world Inc worst desturber that has been ln- iicted upon the races of men since 1umankind emerged from the Salurlan slime, posing as the exponent of things which make for peace and harmony!
 Truly if there be a hell, the fiends herein must surely have laughed loud and long at the sight of thls proven plotter for the enslavement of a world. The despoil"r of near a million homes. Inc ruthless destroyer of near half a million lives. piously announcing his championship of the same principles and objects to uphold which more than half the world today stands in arms against him!
 Cesare Borgia turned saint or At tifla donrong the gown of a St Benedict and seeking the quiet of a monkish cell, wonld prove no more remarkable spectaclcs than Wilhelm II attempting to pass himself off as a virtuous de- fender of the things which preserve human life, advance human progress and insure peace and comfort and safety to human souls.
 Were it not well known that the Kaiser believes himself to be the right hand of the Almighty on earth and therefore, above the dictates of mere earthly conventions regardless of their virtue or sanctity. one might well be- heve that in offering his humanitar- ian profession he was guilty of making h very poor joke, for it is hard to real

well known military surgeon VINO Is
treating feet In the army this throws
the weight away from the foot arch
on to tho outer border of the root
and also causes the toes to be pointed
more to the front in walking. AS the
muscles strengthen the leather strips
are reduced in thickness until the nor
nal sole and heel are reached" Many
OF the camps have exercising appa-
ratus for feet, but when the above
methods and this one fail the men

where standing and walking will not
be necessary.
Hammer Toes And Clubbcd Toes
Hammer toes are usually caused by
bad fitting shoes and is a condition in
which the last joint of the toe Is per
manently fleXed at a right angle so
that the tip OF the toe strikes the sole
of the shoe in walking. 1t units n

position Of tho toe forms a sensitive
surface, and dirt is apt to work un-
der the nail and produce inflamma-
tion. 1t IS sometimes produced by
wearing shoes that are too short,
which forces the toes to double back
under themselves. If the case is an
old one the man will finally lose the
use of the muscles of the sole Of his
foot. Severe cases are sometimes re-
lieved by an operation to lengthen the
contracted tendon of the foot. Mild
cases are cured by the wearing of cor
rect shoes such as are used by our
army today.
Clubbed toes are caused by narrow
shoes which cause the skin between
the toes to become soft and moist by
contact. This soon becomes tender
| and irritated and forms corns between
the toes. Should the shoes be of the
pointed toe type bunions and corns
on the sides and top of the toes will
result. Bunions are enlarged bursal
