OUR DEFENSE

Our boys are defending
this country on the high seas
and on the land. Our own
defense against a common
enemy is to keep the system
clean by ridding the body of
the toxins, or poisons, which
are bred in the intestines.
When you feel tired, sleepy,
headachy, when your breath
is offensive, or pimples ap-
pear on the face and neck,
it is time to recognize the
danger and protect your
bodily health by taking a
good laxative or liver medi-
cine.
The machinery of the body
needs to be oiled, kept in
good condition, just as the
guns or machinery of a ship.

Ono thing the kaiser dares not do-ne
dares not officially approve the intro
duction Of polygamy into the empire.
For some time the semi-ofiicial news
papers Of Germany carried on a dis.
Greet propaganda. doubtless at the be
hest Of the authorities. to test the tenn
per Of the people on the subject. No
progress could be made.
So officially the government CON
demns pOygamy; UNOFFICIALLY TT
ENCOURAGES 1T.
As a result, free love colonies have
sprung up in many parts of Germany
The Berliner Tageblat, presumably
the mouthpioce Of the kaiser, recently
commented on this fact. The tone OF
the comment was by no means con-
demnatory
"All these organizations" says the
Tageblatt, "desire TO improve the Ger
man birth rate"
While the exact number Of the Ger
man killed is not available, 100000
would be a conservative estimate. Most
Of the killed were young men. the
fathers Of the future.
The kaiser has always had an ar
fection for numbers in population.
Early marriages have been encouraged :
race suicide condemned. Illegitimacy In
Germany has always been treated with
greater liberallty than in any other
country save Russia
u was numbers that counted-men
for the armies Of the future-and the
kaiser was on the side Of those meas
urcs that made for increase.
Tho German Society for the Regen-
Grafton Of the Race Is the name Of the
leading organization which believes
that only plural wives can overcome
the vast disparity between the num-
ber Of men and the number OF women
in the empire after the war. There are
other organizations Of like character,
known as the Arians Society. the Eden
Colonies and the New Order
The various societies advocating the
practice Of polygamy advance so much
OF scientific cant In their reasons for
existence that II Is easy 10 trace In
them the hand Of the university saw
ants, in peace time The pets Of the
kaiser No man is 10 have more wives
than he can support. The rights Of
the wives shall be equal. Every mar
riage ls for a lifetime And so on.
There is another group, led by Pro-
fessor Thiele, medical director Of the
schools at Chemnltz, which believes II .
is important that more should be done
for The living today and less for those
set unborn.
Famine -dropsy, hunger-typhold, tu- (

have had no increase In pay 10 meet

their standard Of living now Is lower

The kingdom Of Saxony has always
led the world IN the number Of sui
cldes. and the largest Increases are now
reported from that section Germany,
as a whole has been third among ma

The proneness Of dependency in sax
ony and other German states has been
counted on by the Allies as likely to
be a factor In determining the outcome
Of the war
Once there is fighting on German ter
rltory and the utter hopelessness Of the
situation is borne in upon the German

start a crack in the morale that will
extend the full leneth OF the empire.
