Your Blood Needs a Thorough
Cleaning lust Now

AS spring approaches, the impuri-
ties that have been accommodating in
the system throughout the winter
begin to clog up the circulation,
causing a general weakness and de-

known as Spring fever"
The first symptoms are usually a
loss of appetite, followed by a grad

PAR|S|ANS SHRUB SHOULDERS AT
 SHELL FIRE
By Associated Press.


 PARIS, March 25.-The long range bombardment of Paris was resumed at 6:30 o'clock this morning but was interrupted after the second shot.
 After a brief interval two more shells were fired. The bombardment was suspended at 9:lO o'clock. As was the case yesterday the people did not take to shelter. Cellars which were filled on Saturday remained empty this morning. Little interest was shown in the bombardment
 Soon after they were awakened by the first shot the people were brought to their windows by the rattling of drums. Policemen circulated through each quarter of the city introducing the new system of alarm, which IS dis tinguishcd from the alarm in case of air raids. The police came in for a great amount of chafing, the people being greatly amused at their lack of proficiency with the drumsticks.
 This appeared to mark their limit of interest in the bombardment. Work was resumed under normal condi tions. All the transportation lines were running. The streets were full of people whose sole object of con, vcrsation was the new battle of the Somme which is generally compared with Nerdun

HOPE ID SILENCE SURPRISE GUN
 OF BOOBIES

PARIS, March z5.-It is to be hoped that the gun which shelled Paris will very shortly be silenced, says the Figaro, which gives the fol- lowing quotation from a man who was said to be in a position to know:
 'The 3S0 millimeter gun which bombarded Dunkirk two years ago from a distance of 25 miles was To- cated by our airplanes and soon put out of action. The same methods will be adopted with regard to the 24O millimetcr gun which has been bombarding Paris for the last two days. Since Saturday our airplanes have been looking for it and the fact that it stopped firing is due perhaps to their arrival It will not be long before the gun is definitely placed; then its career will soon be over"
 The military authorities, according to another morning newspaper, are convinced that the Germans are us, ing two new guns. while Richard Arapu, the military expert of L'Oeu- vre, believes there IS a whole bat tery of them.

ALLIES ARE IN NEED OF MORE MEN DECLARES
 GEN. WOOD
Army of Four To FiUe Million Men
 Wanted in France
By Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
 WASHINGTON, March B. Back from his visit to the western battle front, Major General Leonard Wood, in statement before the sen. ate military committee, declared that Allied military opinion was unani- nous that the German offensive will fail He greatly urged an increase to four million or five million men in Americas army.
 It was General Woods opinion that the Germans on the western front are now numerically superior, both on the ground and in the air, but the AL lies are in better position.
 While confident that the German offensive will be halted before the enemy gains any material objectives, he suggested that it may change war fare into an open contest, and rec commended the training of American forces for open as well as for trench fighting.
 uN SNHNl al W d. bGlOlO lilN NOiil- mittee three hours and frankly dis cussed the situation. He stated that the French were disappointed at the size of the American army thus far in Europe, and recommended that im- mediate steps be taken to increase the American Expeditionary Forces to two and a half million men at the earliest possible moment, and that two and half million more men be put into training at home.
 He urged the speeding up of the war program, saying that no Ameri- can artillery or airplanes were ye, available for the use of Pershing's $ men, although thousands of aviators are now ready.
 Commenting on the German offen- sive, he said he thought the German initial success had been greater than had been expected either by the AL lies or the enemy, judged by the num- Der of British, guns reported cap tured. There was no possibility, he said, of the Germans attaining their apparent objectives, the channel ports, or threatening Paris.
