me about five years ago. I was
taken suddenly and my back and
sides ached dreadfully. The least
move sent dagger-hke pains all thru
my body. I was confined to my bed
and delirious part of the time. I
was in misery. Ny kidneys acted
irregularly and I could get no relief
until I used Doan's Kidney Pills,
procured from Duerson's Drug
Store. They helped me right along
until I was improved in every way.
When I have any return of kidney
trouble, Doan's Kidney Pills have

GERMAN MAPS AND DESIGNS

Many people, patriotic at heart
still believe Germany had mo de-
signs upon America, even though
they had conquered Europe. That il
would have been better for us to
have kept out of the fight, even at
the cost Of national humiliation.
This story is for them. 1t is very
illuminating.
A prominent business man of Ma
poleon, Ohio, was in Germany when
diplomatic relations were severed
by the United States. Vainly he en-
deavored to get across the border
into Switzerland. Every avenue was
blocked, even though he was of Ger
man parentage. Finally he sue
ceeded in getting an audience with
the powers that controlled cases of
his kind. He was put through vir-
tual third degree.
Eventually one of the officials
reached down into desk drawer
and drew out map. "You are from
Napoleon, Ohio9" he asked. The
Ohioan acquiesced.
'What county is it in, and what
are the neighboring towns?"
The Napoleonite named the vii
lagos in detail, giving directions
from Napoleon as well as distances.
"Humphp grunted the official.

amendment of the revenue bill ex-
tending the selective draft to 40
years and backward to Is, il il in
dicates anything like permanent
policy of the government, will place
our country in a most anomalous po-
sition.
The. call from overseas is for more
and more men-millions and more
millions Of men. Already the news
papers are reporting from every
section of the country that Class 1
of the former draft is practically
exhausted. Secretary Baker has
stated we are transporting troops
at the rate of 100000 month. The
man coming Of age in the past year
number scarcely a million, and not
nearly all of these will be listed in
Class /. From where are recruits
coming during the next three or four
months7 Will we have to go into the
lower classes to secure them7
Many public men of sound judg-
ment favored placing the age limit
at 40 or As in the beginning. This,
it seems to us, would have been the
wiser course. Our country has
wealth of good fighting material be-
tween the ages of 81 and As. Thou
sands of these men would make cap
ital soldiers. They are Injured to
life's hard knocks, settled in their
habits, and with very little training
would be a match for Germany's
best.
The people of this country can
not afford to permit themselves to
be lulled into false sense of Sc
curity. Just because the Allies have
held the western line; just because
they have defeated the great Aus
trian offensive, is no Indication that
victory is even remotely in sight.
The German machine is still militant
and it will take millions of Ameri-
cans to bring the allied armies to a
point where real offensive warfare
can be risked. There is a vast diff
ference between holding the western
line, and marching to Berlin. Ger
many must be greatly reduced and
the Allies UNNECESSARILY strengthen.
ed before the latter move can be
undertaken-and we must not even
dream of relaxing our efforts until
this is effected.
Our ship building program assur-
es us that transport facilities will
constantly increase from now on.
Why, then, should all this unused
material in fighting men-material
of the very best-be left unused7
All the other allied nations have uti-
lized all their available fightins
force.
Some may ask, who will take the
places of these men in industrial
lfe7 And we give the Yankees an
swer by asking another question:
Who have taken those places in
England and France?
We will make a most fatal mis-
take if we permit the idea to enter
the national mind that we can win |
this war with our surplus. America
is going to be forced to trench deep
ly on her capital before the end
comes. Fighting men by millions and
material resources by billions must
be poured into the vortex before we
can rest in victory. Germany would
be only too pleased to see us lulled
into a false sense of security to the
extent Of even the least slackening
of our intense preparations.
Let's utilize all the latent fighting
material as we'll as material re-
sources.

Fortunately the Ohioan knew that
tree. When he gave its variety in

PEPPERS


The best sweet peppers for can
ming are the Spanish varieties
known as pimentos. The fruit of
these peppers has very thick flesh,
tough skin and is comparatively
smooth from ridges. The bell pep
pers are not suitable varieties for
canning. Peppers should be ripe,
sound and free from bruises. Sort,
using the whole peppers for can
ming and small or broken peppers
for products such as sauces, soups,
chutneys and Dixie relish. Prepare
for peeling by roasting peppers in
a hot oven for six to eight minutes,
being careful not to allow them to
scorch. Peel, cut out stem, remove
seeds and pack dry in flattened
layers. No water or seasoning is
used in the preparation of these pep
pers; the processing brings out a
thick liquor which almost covers
them in the previously boiled jars.
