London, Feb. 28.-Symptoms re-
garded in some quarters here as in
dicating that the German govern
ment is preparing the public Tor
some change Of front on the Alsace-
Lorraine question are found in some
of the German newspapers. MaXlmll-
an Harden recently launched the
first suggestion of this in his LUX
unfit and his condemnation of the
traditional German attitude was
neither censored nor challenged.
Professor Delbrueck followed in the
same strain in one of the leading re-
views, apparently feeling out the
public pulse.
AS there was still no serious re-
action, another leading publicist,
Prof. Martin Fassbender, has just
added another contribution along
the same line, which is particularly
significant owing to the fact that
Fassbender is close personal friend
of the German Emperor, and has
often been spoken Of in the list of
"private advisors"
Professor Fassbender's article ap-
pears in the Deutsche Politik. 1t
says in part:
''The French base their claim to
Alsace on the fact that the Alsat-
ians are attached in their hearts to
France This unfortunately is only
too true. The reproach leyelled at
us, that we do not understand how
to assimilate conquered territories,
is we'll founded, and it is phenom-
enon which merits our best atten-
ton.
"In 1863 Colbert wrote to his
brother, the first administrator of
Alsace, exhorting him to treat the
Alsatians better than the inhabitants
OF Germany were treated by their
rulers. At the same time he urged
the clergy to use their influence to
induce the Alsatians to become good
Frenchmen. The consequence was
that in 1875, when the German
troops entered Alsace, they met
not with complete indifference, but
active hostility on the part of the in
habitants OF that province.

DON'T SUFFER-! RELIEF COMES
THE MOMENT you RUB WITH
"ST, JACOBS LINIMENT."

Don't stay crippled! Rub this sooth-

Nothing else penetrates, heals and
strengthens the injured muscles, nerves,

doesn't burn or discolor the skin and
can not cause injury. Don't suffer!
Get a small trial bottle from any drug

the slightest pain or soreness, and you
can go about your regular duties.

SPEND LEAVE IN SAVOY.
American Soldiers on Furlough Visi,
Cities in Alps.

Chambery, France. Feb. 2S (By
MaiD--American soldiers on leave
now are being sent to the department
OF Savoy, one Of the most picturesque
regions of France, to obtain rest and
healthful recreation after their ard
uous work in the trenches and be-
hind the lines. The department was
selected by officers of the American
army.
1t is beautifully situated about
$50 miles from Paris in the Alps in
southeastern France. having a mild
and agreeable climate. fertile val
legs, high and well-timbered NOUN
tains and pretty mountain streams
and lakes.
Aix-les- Bains, Chambery and
Challes-les-Eaux are the three towns
in the department to which the first
American soldiers are being sent.
The first contingent of soldiers was
sent to AiX-les-Bain known to tour
lists the world over as the Pearl of
Savoy" This town with a normal
population of less than 10000 inhab-
itants is located but one mile from
the Lake Of Bourget on a small plain
surrounded by mountains.
AK owes its fame and Importance
to its warm mineral springs, known
to the Romans. The baths are operat-
ed under government supervision.
The water is supplied by two springs,
yielding dolly over million gallons.
The treatment, prescribed chiefly for
rheumatism and skin diseases, is
supplied to American soldiers at a
very nominal cost.
Chambery Is a town Of $4,000 in
habitants about nine miles from AK
les-B ains. 1t is the capital Of the de-
partment Of Savoy and An important
center of learning and industry. The
grand dhkes of Savoy made their
headquarters in Chambery and built
there a great old castle, parts OF
which still stand. Old Roman ruins
are also found in the neighborhood,
Challes-les-Eaux is another well
known hot springs station located q
couple of miles southeast of Cham
berry and at the foot of the Baugs
mountains. The baths there are said
to have virtually the same mineral
properties as those at Aix-les- Rains
A large casino and a theatre har
been leased In Challes by the Youn
Mems Christian Association for tho
benefit Of the American soldiers.

A plea for unity of socialists and
radicals in backing the national war
aims was issued by the Jew
ish socialist league of America. The
appeal was made in the form of a
call for a national conference Of 10y
al socialists to be held Sunday ater-
noon, April IA, in Beethoven Hall,
210 East Fifth Street. Russia's fate
and the necessity for a protracted
war against Germany are cited as
proof for the need of united action
in this country.
The terrible calamity that has
befallen Russia imposes new duty
upon u.s." says the call. This duty
means that we must all forget the
differences of opinion that have ex-
listed in the socialist ranks Of Am
erica concerning the war, and that
we must, with united effort, take
an active part in the great and sac
red work of safeguarding our liber-
ties and Of helping to secure liberty
for our brethren across the ocean,"

Would Isolate Germany.

Senator Owen of Oklahoma sub
mitted to the senate a plan for end
ing the present war speedily through
economic, commercial, and financial
isolation of Germany. The same plan,
he said, would prevent future wars
by holding over a too ambitious or
belligerent nation a threat that could
not be ignored.
The first step toward ending the
war, Senator Owen believes, should
be the formation of league of ma
tions, composed of the United States,
Great Britain, France, Italy, Japan,
China and other allied nations. This
league should formulate internation-
al law and rules of conduct. laying

BIG FEET BARRED THEM.
Two Texans Discharged From Army
Because Leather is High.

Because Leather is High.
Dallas, Tex, March 25.-While
some exemption boards have been
weighing the claims of DIRECTORS to
military services who had revived
long forgotten dependents. at least
two Texans willing to serve receiv-
army decided it would put too great
a strain on the United States Gov
eminent to keep them in shoes.
The recruits recently were dis
charged from Camp Travis at San
Antonio because Of the high price of
leather. Both were negroes from the
Texas bottoms and both were vail
ant in their wishes to get" the Ger
man Emperor. If either could have
stepped on him, it would have end
ed the war. Each would have worn
shoes number Is if the army could
have supplied them. 1t was estimat-
ed that shoes would have to be made
to order for them at cost of $40 a
pair and so they were sent back to
the farms.
Some of the exemption claims
have been freakish. In Dallas, a
fearful claimant pictured the suffer-
ing of his grandmother if his sup
port were removed. An investiga-
ton proved she had been-dead twen-
ty years and in the opinion of the
board members, it was the first time
the objector had thought of it. He
was arrested and is still in Jail.
Only few Texans now ask ex-
emption on conscientious grounds.
Training camp customs are becom-
ing familiar to persons in all parts
of the state and the conscientious
objector" knows he is sure of a SAFE
il not savory, job with the kitchen
police.
A Dallas negro, suspicious of the
virtue of written claims, took his
evidence with him. When called be-
fore the board, he herded seven
children and his wife, and protested
q perfect willingness to serve in the
army If the board would promise to
take care of his family. He was
granted exemption.
Another Dallas man asked the
board to read a packet of love let
ters in order to convince them of the
acute suffering his wife would un-
dergo if he left her to serve with the
c0lOrs. The board was ViStbly affect
ed and was weakening rapidly when
an investigator brought in word that
the man had married alter the first
call and that the letters had been
made to order by dutiful and obed-
lent wife.
Stomach Trouble.
There are great many who have
been afflicted for a long time with
some disorder Of the stomach and have
finally been permanently cured. Mrs.
W., E. Scott, Peoria, ILL.,, writes: my
husband suffered for years with stom-
ach trouble before he commenced using
Chamberlain's Tablets. These tablets
have done him good and have saved
him great deal Of suffering" II you
have not given Chamberlain's Tablets
trial, you should do so. as you are
almost certain to be benefited by them.

You reckless men add women who
are pestered with corns and who have

to use a drug called freezone,~ which
the moment few drops are applied

and soon the entire corn, root and ALL

1t is sticky ether compound which
dries the. moment it is applied and
simply shrivels the corn without in

quarter of an ounce OF freezone will
cost very little at any Of the drug
