trial loss mounts up to $4,000, 000,0 900.
There is no disposition on the part
of the allies to begrudge the expendi-
ture. 1t is the highest price that has
ever been paid in history for anything
but the thing purchased is security for
the application of these same forces
to peaceful aims in the future. 1t Is
literally true that the men and money
spent in this war could have trans
formed the earth. They could have
established universal sanitation, uni
versal education, eliminated barbar-
ism and savagery. reclaimed all the
waste lands. established cOmmunica-
tons by rail and steam with every
corner of the globe, and brought the
millennium nearer by long stride.
At least, the human race has ceased
to be awed by the magnitude of any
project. In the hell of war, men have
learned that no task is too great for
them. and that is a thought worth car
rying into times of peace.

OUR BOYS IN FRANCE AND
HOME PROTECTION

The men on the firing line represent
the pick Of our American youth. One in
four OF our boys at home was sick, re-
jected because of physical deficiency.
Many times the kidneys were to blame.
If we wish 70 prevent old age coming
on too soon, or II we want to increase
our chances for a long life. Dr. Pierce Of
the Surgical Institute. Buffalo ". Y, says
that you should drink plenty OF water
daily before meals. Then procure at
your nearest drug store Anuric double
strength. This An-u-ric drives the uric
acid out and eHres backache and rheuma-
tism.
If we wish to keep our kidneys in the
best condition a diet of milk and vege-
tables. with only little meat once a day.
is the most suitable. Drink plenty of
pure water. take Anuric three times a day
for month.
Step into the drug store and ask for
a sixty-cent package of Anuric or send
DR. Pierce 10c for trial pkg. Anuric, many
times more potent than lithia, eliminates
uric acid as hot water melts sugar. A
short trial will convince you.

Is MILLION MEN
is COST OF WAR

redistributing this taxation wisely and
equitably, the end of the period that
the Liberty bonds have to run may
well see more efficient balance of
wealth than the present.
AS in reckoning war strength, the
basic realities of the problem are eco
nomic rather than financial. Such
part of the great war loans as is in
vested in convertible factories, in
increase of food production and SINH
lar real assets, cannot be regarded as
lost. On the other hand, the dollars
that are spent for shells which ex-
plode and ships that sink are lost in
fact.
Worlds Capital Cut Down.
Moreover, the cost in dollars is no
measure of the real economic cost of
the war, because it takes no account
of the enormous destruction of prop
erty that has taken place. This rep
resents a cutting into the capital of
the world. The sinking of millions of
tons of shipping, the destruction OF
cities, the ravaging of farm lands, the
deterioration of industrial equipment
in the last three years, are only a few
of the items that must be charged to
this account. One huge item is the
labor of 55,000,000 men who have been
taken completely from productive oc-
equations. Even reckoning their value

J fections of the son and heir. and Ger
man, Meg by name-a jolly and attrac-
tive young woman, unembarrassed by

is the more dangerous for the fact that
she is the guardian angel of the
daughter of the French war minister.
This story, written with Il certain
grace of style, set all France talking,
and many bourgeois family scrutin-
lied with horror their stockish. stupid

maid, who knew little outside the
small household and who, moreover,

the war ! used TO meet ON the stair
case of a modest and quiet little pri-
vate hotel the dame who stood for the
original of Meg. She had an apart

good German style, grown imposing |
though still attractive in the German I
fashion.
"One evening. on returning to my
rooms, / saw Meg's lady companion,
a dragon looking person. camped on
chair on the landing near Meg's door,
and presently three middle-aged gen.

that the war was coming, and no doubt
serious business was on hand that
night.

Back to grace our land.
