His Drastic Action.

SIT seems to me that motorists pass
ing through here are extremely reck-
less in their driving" said the hyper
critical guest. "Don't the authorities
try to do anything to stop their speed
ing through town."
"Well," responded the landlord Of
the Petunia tavern. Constable Slack
putter didn't do much till one joy rider
ran smack over him and went racing
off to the westward. But then, you
betcha, he crawled to telephone,
called up the captain of the home
guards at Wayoverbehind, and ordered
him to get his company out and take
the nefarious cuss dead or alive. The
captain didn't do it, but it just showed
how awake to his duty Slack had sud-
denly become. Any time you run over
a small town officer you can get ac-
tion and reaction out of him."-Kan-
sas City Star.

Between Air Raids,

This is thrilling and true story of
two women who kept 'postO di con-
forto" at Treviso, Italy, for travelling
sick and wounded soldiers:
Having done some very good ter
rOrizing by the six o'clock raids, the
Huns kept them up. 1t was such a
pestiferous nuisance, because we were
always in the middle of cooking the
evening meal! With your soldier cook
and servant safe down in the cellar,
it becomes your pleasing duty to run
out between raids to stir the soup or
put another stick of wood on the fire.
With shrapnel falling all around, it
is not altogether wise to go with un-
covered head. We had given our two
helmets to American ambulance driv-
ers and were without any, so l was
obliged to wear a granite saucepan on
my head for these stirring parties. 1t
was not our custom to go into refuge.
We claimed to those who expostulated
that during the raids was when we
were the most needed.-Red Cross
Magazine.

'YANKs DISLIKE FRENCH CASH
Call Greenbacks "Real Money'--Com.
plain That Francs Slip Through
Fingers.

Forgetting how to figure in Irregular
money" and learning how to calculate
In "this doggon stuff" is one of the
first worries of the American soldiers
in France, says New York Evening
Sun.
Regular money" is good old dol
lars and cents, nickels, dimes and quar-
ters.
"This doggon STUFF is the name ap-
piled to French francs, usually paper
money, often as low as single francs,
or 20 cents, for most small cities have
issued local Small change currency.
The Americans do not like French
paper money. They say it is trash,
and tears, and is hard to count.
On the other hand, the French are
shocked when an American crumples
French paper up and shoves 1t in his
pocket the sway they do back home"
, French money is to be handled in big
pocketbooks and not crumpled.
'Look at some real money once," a
doughboy told merchant, and flashed
bright new silver certificate. When
he crumpled it up in his fist to show
how real money can be used" the
Frenchman almost tainted.
The Americans are paid almost en-
tirely in French money and they are
getting used to francs, though they all
agree "a francs so small it slips
through your fingers like water"

The spirit of giving is not confined

The spirit Of giving is not confined
alone to the American people and the
Americans must keep in practice If
they expect to hold the high record
they have made in the past, for the
school children of Paris, short time
ago, undertook to raise modest sum to
take care Of the first American child
orphaned by the war; before those In
charge Of the movement were aware
of what was taking place, the idea
spread throughout the schools Of the
French capital until 100000 French
children had participated, says Calves
ton Tribune. The sum raised was 49,
600 francs.

The story of the captured U-boat

The story Of the captured U-boat
commander who betrayed four other
U-boats when he feared for his own life
on the British boat they might tor
pedo is quite probable. The style of
fighting which creeps upon an enemy
to stab him in the back and then runs
from danger is not the type from
which one may expect high-minded
loyalty and heroic Fself-abnegation.

will prevent hunger from causing head

plenty of existing drugs which have
the same effect and permanently. 1t is
not likely that the expert chemist has
improved on these. AS for the rest,

His companions in arms went on,

Later he was picked up by a federal

ARGENTINA BREAKS
WITH THE KAISER
SINKING OF STEAMER CAUSES
WAVE OF REVOLT AGAINST
THE HUNS.
Military Attaches Recalled From ser-
lin and Vienna and Attitude Of
Neishborins Republics Toward
Teutons Is Approved.

Buenos Ayres.-The ministry of war
has recalled Argentina military at
taciies from Berlin aud Vienna. In
political circles this action is regarded
as significant and connected with the
sinking Of the Argentine steamship
Ministro Irriendo January 26.
The Argentine minister To France
has confirmed the fact that the steam
ship was flying the Argentine flag
when sunk. The government has not
announced by what authority the
change of flags was made after leav-
ing this country-the vessel having
sailed under the French fiag-but re-
ports the sinking as an unfriendiy act
even though the use of the home flag
was unauthorized. The assumption in
political circles here is that Germany
does not intend To keep her promises
In regard to Argentlna's shipping.
After an unusually long lapse OF
time the foreign office has replied 10
the notes OF Peru and Uruguay, which
notified Argentina of their rupture OF
relations with Germany, and that OF
Brazil Informing Argentina of her sis
ter country's state of war with the cen.
tral powers.
Approves Break With Teutons.
Argentina, In the three notes sent
In reply. expressed her appreciation
and warmest sympathy with the three
other South American countries. The
note To Brazil, which was the most sig
nlhcant, says that the Argentine gov
eminent has followed all the phases OF
the causes which led to this just res
oluuon," and closes with an expression
Of homage 10 the Brazilian nation.
These notes and the simultaneous re-
call of the military attaches from Ber-
lin and Vienna are regarded as indI-
eating that the country is yerging on
Il crisis In It's international relations.
