SACRIFICE AND SUFFERING

america has not suffered as yet
from this war, and her people have
made no real sacrifices. They have
merely been Inconvenience"
The speaker was a French army
officer, before an audience in Colum-
bus a few weeks ago. Then he de-
scribed conditions of real suffering
in France. 1t was IN awed assem-
blage before he had finished.
And, after all, the Frenchman was
close to being right.
Take your own case. What real
pinching sacrifices have you made ?
Wherein have you suffered in the
true sense? How has. wars gaunt
hand touched you?
Yet we cannot hope to escape for
ever
America has not yet begun to fight.
When she does, real suffering and
genuine sacrifice will follow. Botn
are inevitable. They are wars price.
And we are in this war to the i'm
ish. In it for our rights and the
rights of the world; for liberty and
humanity. In this we are unselish.
Meanwhile the greater prepar-
alton, the better we will fight when
the brunt comes. The better our
training and equipment, the better
our showing.
We want to show we'll in this great
est struggle of all time. So let's
do all we can to make the struggle
short.
Let'st minimize as best we can the
suffering and sacrifice.
Let's buy Liberty Bonds!

OyERWORKING IT'S HALO

In the ancient days the courtiers
about the throne gravely assured
themselves shat the king can do no
wrong" Certain of the jewellers in
the presence they have created in
Washington are not content with this
all-too-vulnerable doctrine and are
evolving a new doctrine that "the
President alone is always right"
Then encircling him with a halo, they
seek to initiate his luminosity until
it's pulsing expansion ~envelops all his
appointees, and this whether they
come from the ~habitations of the un-
terrified, or of the unreconstructed, DR.
even out of the nebulous void of the
twilight zone"
About this time the rugged COM
mon sense of the people asserts it.
self. They gladly acknowledge the
ability, the devotion and patriotism
of President Wilson. They perceive
and appraise the vast superiority of
the President over his subordinates-
and they also perceive and as uner-
ringly appraise the vast inferiority
of his subordinates to the President.
Any halo is perfectly good until it
is overworked. One that has to be in
lated until it envelopes the Garfelds,
the Bakers, the Redfields, is apt to
collapse some day from super-expan-
sion. AS has been wisely said of old,
"let there be moderation in all things"

A TO SPY FOR U. S.

Uncle Sam can have the services CT
a perfectly good spy if he wants
them. Peter Rivers, aged IL years,
of Maple Lake, Mimi, says SO.
Writing to U. 5. Marine headquar-
tiers, Peter said, among other things:
I'm too young to be a sea soldier
but I can be the best spy you most
ever saw. Send me along a spy's
badge and a Colts As and I'll go
right to work. I've read history and
my only regret is that 1 haven't nine

er's offer of service, the Marine
Corps authorities advised him to
keep on playing eli Spy" with the

seriously.

STOMACH UPSET?
Get at the Real Cause-Take DR..
Edwards Olive Tablets

That's what thousands of stomach
sufferers are doing now Instead of
taking tonics, or trying to patch up a
poor digestion, they are attacking the
real cause of the ailment - clogged liver
and disordered bowels.
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets arouse the
liver in a soothing, healing way. When
the liver and bowels are performing their
natural functions, away goes indigestion
and stomach troubles.
If you have a bad taste in your
mouth, tongue coated, appetite poor,
lazy, don't-care feeling, no ambition or
energy, troubled with undigested foods,
you should take Olive Tablets, the SUBJ
stitute for calomel.
DIR. Edwards Olive Tablets are a
purely vegetable compound mixed with
olive oil. You will know them by their
olive color. They do the work without
gripping, cramps or pain.
Take n or two at bedtime for quick
relief, so you can eat what you like.
At 1Oc and Csc per box. All druggists.

SHOW WHY 1000 OHIO
BABIES DIE ANNUALLY
Diarrhea and Pneumonia Far Ahead
of Other Diseases as Causes of
Infant Mortality, According to
State Department of j..
Health

What kills Ohio babies? The State
Department Of Health answered this
question today in a statement setting
forth the leading mes among the
death-dealing agencies which each
year in Ohio take a toll of 10000
children under year old.
Diarrhea stands head and shoulders
above all other diseases with an an
nual harvest of 1000 to $500. Next
below it among the diseases is pneu-
monia, with an annual average of l.
200 to 1900.
Other diseases are well below these
two. Whooping cough, which stands
next, averages about $50 deaths, and
acute bronchitis, fourth, has an an
nual total of 200. Whooping cough
is more fatal among infants than
among older children or adults.
tuberculosis, syphilis, and convul-
sions kill from 125 to It's babies each
year and meningitis, measles, intes-
final obstruction and diphtheria Tin
GLIDING croup) have totals between so
and 100.
A large share of deaths of babies is
due to causes other than disease,
among which the following lead: Pre-
mature birth, with slightly over g..
600 deaths, yearly; malformations
with slightly under 800; c~ongenita.
debility, from 600 to 800; injuries al
birth, $50 to 450; accident and homi.
eide, $50 to 200.
These figures were presented by the
State Department of Health to illus.
trate the need of a baby-saving cam
paign such as is to be conducted by
the federal children's bureau through
out the country during the SECOND
year of the war, beginning April 6
The goal of this campaign is to b.
the saving of 100 1000 lives of children
under five years old.
Ohio's quota, assigned on the basi.
of population is 4,510 lives to b,
saved. This represents a reduction D
about one-third in the child dealt
rate.
Most of the deaths under the ag,
of five are of infants under a yea.
old. Medical and public health au
thorities agree, the health department
asserted, that half of these deaths cal
be prevented by the use Of REASONABLE
precautions.

s

There are many people scattered
over the United States who are dis
posed to deal with the present war
situation upon what they deem a
strictly business basis. And as they
view it, a Liberty Bond at 4 per cent,
isn't a good investment.
For they can get 6, z, or 8 per cent
for their money.
That their 4 per cent is guaran-
teed by the entire of the
government, backed by a continent as
it were, seemingly is lost upon them.
The fact that they cannot possibly
lose and inevitably will more than
double their money on the investment
seems not to impress them.
They prefer 6, 7, or 8 per cent with
a risk to it.
For in every loan today, save that
made to Uncle Sam, there is a risk
and a big one. Unless Uncle Sam
wins this war, existing loans may not
be paid until Germany has collected
her contemplated $4,000, 0O0, 900 in
demnity.
This is a good thing to keep in
mind when considering buying a Lib
erty Bond. Better even, when con-
sidering that loan at 8 per cent.
If you get down to strictly bust
ness, you will insure your loan by
making it where it will work in be-
half of national security.
In other words, you will buy a Lib
erty Bond.
