The United States now has large
number of first-class battleships "pre-
pairing side by side with the best ships
of the British navy for an engagement
on the high seas which is expected to
occur at any time with the German
feet" according to a statement made
in an address Sunday night in New
York by Rear Admiral Albert Gleaves.
GET WARNING OF CLASH
81 am not going beyond the border
line of secrecy" declared Admiral

ago there came an alarm to the heads
Of the British navy that the German

the draft?
l ask you American citizens today,
would you rather see America, igno-
bic and safe, or noble and suffering?
Answer that question and you have
met the problem that is tearing this
country today.
Harry Lauder who has entertained
so many Of US, lost his only son in the
war He visited the grave. He said,
"All l wanted to do was to open the
grave and kiss him on both cheeks and
thank him for the service that he had
rnedered to a good cause"
No, the issue of life, after ALL is
not whether you or are living or dy-
ing, but whether we are living or dy-
ing to some good cause. That is what
this war is doing; it is making men
think and live their lives to some
good purpose.

SPRING TREATMENT
Necessary to Purify Blood and Correct
Weak, Run Down Conditions.


Weak, Run-Down Conditions.
Trying weather, exposure to
storms, the grip, hard colds,
pneumonia, fevers, diphtheria and
other blood-poisoning, prostrating
diseases leave the whole system sub
normal-below par-weak and slow
blood depleted and thin, with that
tired feeling, poor appetite, back
ache, rheumatic pains, delicate diges-
tive power or almost none at all. The
ideal treatment is
Hoods Sarsaparilla-to be taken
before meals-thoroughly to purify
the blood and expel poisons, and
Peptiron-to be taken after meals
to put power into the blood, give
strength, increase red corpuscles and
restore tone, and do it quickly.
If there is biliousness, constipa-
ton, bad taste in the mouth, despond-
ency or "the blues" the liver is tor
pid. Take Hoods Pills-they rouse
the liver and relieve all liver ills, and
are perfectly compatible with Hoods
Sarsaparilla and Peptiron.
Begin this Spring treatment today.

men, they are not of the caliber of the

MERCY MUNITIONS
NEEDED IN TRENCHES
Lieut.. Coningsby Dawson, Fight

Appeal for Y. W. c. A.

Lieut.. Coningsby Dawson, who wrote
Garry On" says of the war work
which the Y. w. G. A. is doing: you
at home cannot fight with your lives,
but you can fight with your mercy.
The Y. W. c. A. is offering you just
this chance. 1t garrisons the women's
support trenches, which lie behind the
mems. 1t asks you to supply them
with munitions of mercy that they
may be passed on to US. We need
such supplies badly. Give generously
that we may the ooner defeat the
Hun"
What Lieut.. Dawson says of the Y.
w. G. A. he might have said of all the
national organizations which are com
ing together for the biggest financial
campaign that organizations have ever
headed. All the $170, SOC, 900 to be
raised by the seven great national or
CARNATIONS the week of November IL
will be used to garrison and supply
the support trenches behind the lines.
They are the Y. NJ. G. A, the Y. W.

ell, Jewish Welfare Board, American

munity Service and Salvation Army.
American girls in various uniforms
mingle strangely with picturesque
Brittany costumes in France. The
American Y. w. G. A. has a hostess
house in Brittany where the Signal
Corps women live and a hut where
the nurses spend their free time. Both
these centers are fitted with many Of
the comforts and conveniences Of
home.
"At a tea given at the nurses hut
one Saturday afternoon" writes Miss
Mabel Warner, of Salina, Kansas, Y.
