Major Donald Guthrie of the Can

you've got to fight for someone,"
That's practically what the new in
ternational draft arrangement be-
tween the United States and Great
Britain says to every one of the
100000 Britishers and Canadians re-
siding In the United States.
The idea that only British sub
jects of the American draft age-21
to 31-will be liable to conscripticn,
is entirely erroneous, because the
new agreement with Great Britain
and Canada provides that the sub
jects of the two countries between
the ages of twenty md forty years
inclusive shall be liable for military
service, a prominent officer of the
British and Canadian Recruiting
Mission declared today.
Every day the familiar British
phrase Garry onI" gains newer and
deeper meaning. So far as Great
Britain and Canada are concerned,
they are determined to fight on until
the Germans are thoroughly beaten.

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN
FRANCE, March 2 (By the Associated
Press)-The three recent raids. one
on the Toul sector and two along the
Chemin Des Danes have demonstrated
thta the American soldier now is per
fectly at home in a gas mask and able
to fight Just as well with as without

the Americans have shown their
usual adaptability. Gas was used in
all three attacks in Just Sufficient

as the Germans in their raids did not
desire to encounter quantities of their
own gas.

When the engagement at Toul be-
gan virtually all the Americans were
masked. Some few of the men. how
ever, are exported to have taken a
chance. when the GFermany infantry
attacked, putting off their masks for
freer action.
One officer risked his life to give
commands to his men during the roar
Of explosions. He was unable through
his mask to make his men hear. so he
pulled il off and yelled his orders. As
1t happened there was no gas in this
particular section. but he did not know
it. The officer was willing to sacri-
flee his own ife to get his men to a
place of safety where they could also
strike effectively at the enemy
There were many other instances
of personal bravery. A lieutenant, a
sergeant and two privates were in a

County Fuel Administrator has asked
The Democrat to urge upon our peo-
pie here the importance of laying in
a supply of coal during the very near
future. BY doing this you will aid
the mine operators and the railroads
in mining and transporting the large
amount of coal that is needed each
winter in Iowa. Coal is cheaper now
than it will. be after July list, when
the increase in freight rates becomes
effective. If you are able to purchase
your coal now and fail to do SO, don't
blame the government or the coal deal
ers if you freeze next winter AS soon
as the 1918 crops are harvested, and
new ships are being turned out more
rapidly, the railroads will be asked
to devote every bit OF energy to trans
porting foodstuffs and war materials
to eactern ports instead of hauling
coal which they can haul now.

CHRONIC CONSTIPATION.

Perhaps you have never thought OF
it, but this disorder is due to a lack Of
moisture in the residual matter of the
food. If you will drink an abundance
of water, eat raw fruits and take lots
of outdoor exercise, you may be able
eventually to overcome it entirely. In
the meantime use the most mild and
gentle laxatives. Strong and harsh
cathartics take too much water out
of the system and make bad matter
worse. Chamberlain's Tablets are
easy and pleasant to take, and most
agreeable in effect Give them trial.
