PRISONERS TO LOSE HEADS.
German Officers Tell Men Americans

with the American Armies. Sept 3.
German officers are now telling their
soldiers that all German prisoners
taken by the United states troops have
their heads cut off when taken to the
rear. The obvious purpose OF this is
to prevent the men from giving them
selves up voluntarily to the Americans,
as hundreds of tham have lately done.
Sitting in an American field hos
pital today were two young German
prisoners who had been brought in by
n Brooklyn sergeant. lad of only 20.
One was slightly wounded. The other
was sobbinS and pleading with the
surgeon to save him from having his
head cut off. which he said he under
stood from his commanding officer
would be his fate.
The doctor assured the frightened
German that the Americans were not
quite as savage as all that; but the
prisoner was still trembling and griev-
ing as he WIS led to the rear OF the
American line by corporal.

Undoubtedly Turkeys policy at that
moment precisely fitted in with German
plans. Wangenheim was steadily IN
creasing his ~ascendancy over the TURK
ish cabinet, and Turkey was then pur-
suing the course that best served the
German aims. Her policy was keeping
the entente on tenterhooks; It never
knew from day to day where Turkey
stood, whether she would remain heu-
trail or enter the war on Germany's
side. Because Turkeys attitude was
30 uncertain, Russia was compelled TO
England was Obliged 10 strengthen her
forces in Egypt and India, and to main
tain a considerable fleet at the mouth
OF the DardanelleR. All this worked
in beautifully with Germany's plans,
for these detached forces just so much
weakened England and Russia on the
European battle front. | am now
speaking Of the period just before the
Marine. when Germany expected to de-
feat France and Russia with the aid
Of her ally. Austria, and thus obtain a
victory that would have enabled her to
dictate the future OF Europe, Should
Turkey at that time be actually en-
gagged in military operations, she could
do no more toward bringing about this
victory than she was doing now, by
keeping considerable Russian and Eng
fish forces away from the most impor-
tant fronts. But should Germany win
this easy victory with Turkeys aid,
she might find her new ally an embar-
rassment. Turkey would certainly de-
mand compensation and she would not
be particularly modest in her demands,
which most likely would include the
full control of Egypt and perhaps the
return of Balkan territories. Such re-

When you hold in your arms your
tiny new infant, be sure that you can
feel that before its arrival you did all
in your power to give to it a happy
prenatal influence.
Scientists say that the thoughts and
feelings of the expectant mother great
~ affect the health and disposition Of
the future infant.
For over half a century thousands Of
women who have used the time-hon-
ored remedy, Mothers Friend, say that
they entirely escaped nausea. nervous
ness and that peculiar distressing feol-
ing so usual where nature is unaided.
They thus preserved a wonderfully
bright and happy disposition, which re-
fleets so markedly upon the unborn
child.
BY the regular use of Mothers Friend
the muscles are made and kept soft
and elastic to readily yield to natures
demand for expansion without the
usual wrenchihg strain. The nerves are
not drawn upon, and as a consequence
the expectant mother is calm and
serene and the nights are not dis
turbed with nervous twitchings, and
the crisis is one Of joy and happiness.
Write the Bradfield Regulator Com
pany, Dept. *, Lamar Building, At
Book, OF value to every woman, and
get a bottle of Mothers Friend from
your druggist and begin a treatment
that will bring real results.
