disapproval of separate peace for Russia
is expressed.
However. British opinion divides when
the matter of Germany's good faith arises
Tor discussion. One faction believes that
the German proposal should be regarded as
perfectly sincere, while another faction
sees in the move trap deliberately laid
Tor the Entente. 1t is generally felt that
these proposals, however they may be in
terpreted, are really only the forerunners
of an elaborate peace campaign launched
by the Central Powers.
In France
IT HE informal reply of France, ex
pressed by Foreign Minister Pichon
IN the Chamber of Deputies is that she
Will not accept a peace based on the
stotus quo ante and will go on with the
war whether Russia makes separate peace
or not. Germany is trying to involve us
in her Maximalist negotiations" he de-
clares. after suffering as we have we
cannot afford to accept peace based on the
status quo.
M. Pichon further states that "by agree
ment with our Allies we are ready to dis
cuss direct propositions regarding peace"
but maintains that the present move is
"indrect."
The Paris press realizes what it con-
slders grave menace to the victory of
democracy and presents against it a strong
front. Gustave Herve writes in "La Vic
toire": 'Let our soldiers in the trenches
remember the prophecy: To-day the Ger
mans, urged on by the Austrians, who are
at the end Of their resources, offer US a
German peace. In six months they will
beg of us a French peace"

"HOBO" SAVES A
 YOUNG WOMAN
She Had Brights Disease-Doc- tors Treatment Did No
 Good, She Said.

It would surprise you to hear of the wonderful results accomplished by the Hobo Kidney and Bladder Remedy. After suffering for years with Brights disease, many persons have been com pletely restored to health. One notable case is that of Mrs. P. B. Nelson, of Lake Charles, La. Her story told un- der oath, is that she began ailing in 1913, pot worse and after suffering for six months called upon doctor who said she had a severe case of Brights disease. He treated her three months without avail. Then he rec commended Hobo Kidney and Bladder Remedy, a preparation that hod in many instances to his knowledge giv- en marked relief. Continuing, she declares that "by the use of Hobo Kidney and Bladder Remedy she is now without pain whatever and has completely regained and is now en- toying the very best of health, thanks to Hobo." If vcu are afflicted with anv form of kidney or bladder trouble. write to the Hobo Medicine Manufac- utrino Co.,, Singer, La., for co~'r of the Hobo booklet.

CONGRESS- SCHEMES 10 GET A RECESS
 DURING SUMMER
Committees to Draft Meas ures While Houses Rest
 Alternately.

Washington, May 2S.-Congress to- night apparently found a way to provide the new war revenue legis- lation insisted upon by President Wilson without abandoning entirely it's long cherished plan to get out of Washington for a summer vacation.
 Leaders of both parties joined in conference over a program proposed by Representative Garner of Texas, the Democrat of the house ways and means committee, and it was given general approval.
 The plan cantemplates prompt ac- tion on pending appropriation bills to be followed about June 15 or 20 by q recess by both houses until August 1 while the ways and means committee frames the bill.
 Alter passage of the measure by the house proably about August 10 the house will recess 30 Bays to await action in the senate.
 This plan has not ben discussed with the president or Secretary Mo Adoo, but leaders at the capitol are taking it for granted the administra- tion has no legislation. of imperative importance to bring forward and that their plans will not be inter- fered with. so long as work on the revenue bill goes ahead.

BEGIN HOT WAITER
 DlRGNlSzlNG IF YOU
 DON'T FEEL RQGHlT
Says glass of hot water with phosphate before breakfast
 washes out polsons.

If you wake up with a bad taste, bad breath and tongue is coated; if your head is dull or aching; if what ycu eat sours and forms gas and acid in stomach, or you are bilious, con- feeling just right, begin inside bath ing. Drink before breakfast, glass of real hot water with teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in it. This will flush the poisons and toxins from stomach, liver kidneys and bowels and cleanse, sweeten and purify the en- tire alimentary tract. Do your inside bathing immediately upon arising in the morning to wash out of the sys- tenn all the previous days poisonous waste, gases and sour bile before put ting mere food into the stomach.
 To feel like young folks feel; like you felt before your blood, nerves and muscles became loaded with body inn purities, get fro mcyur pharmacist a quarter pound of limestone phosphate which is inexpensive and almost tasteless, except for sourish twinge which is not unpleasant.
 Just as soap and hot water act on the skin, cleansing, sweetening and freshening, so hot water and lime stone phosphate act on the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels. Men and women who are usually constipated, bilious, headachy or have any stomach disorder should begin this inside bathing before breakfast. They are assured they will become real cranks on the subject shortly.-z(Adv.)

Submits Report Authorizing $S50,OO0 for New Federal Building
 and Gives Apr0val.

Washington, May 2S.--Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo late Monday afternoon submitted to congress a report urging that authorization for q new $S500O0 postoffice building at Little Rock be granted, and favorable action on the report is anticipated. The request was made as part of a report showing various building projects which the secretary believed necessary despite the demand for fi- nances for war measures.
 The bill providing for erection of a new Federal building at Littlel Rock was introduced by Congressman H. M. Jaeoway. The treasury, department has held that new building would cost no more than the enlarging of the present building, which is not adequate to meet the needs Of the government. At present. the secre- tary said, it is necessary to rent space outside of the building. The govern ment is now spending $7,355 per an mum to rent additional office room at Little Rock

PARLIAMENT TO HEAR
 DETAILS OF IRISH PLOT
NatiOnaliSts Members Not Expected to Return Until Big Meeting
 At Dublin Thursday.

London, May 2S-Parliament re- assembled today after short Whit suntide vacation. Although the hlsi- ness formally set for discussion is not exciting, the members meet in keen anticipation of some official utterance regarding the alleged German-Iirish plot and the arrests of Sim Feiners. r Irish Nationalist members have not returned to London and it is under- stood they will not appear at Vest minister until after an important party meting at Dublin Thursday, when the question of the date for their return will be discussed among other matters. But in their desire being to ascertain especially have decided to question the government. their de- sire being to ascertain especially whether the government proposed to bring the prisoners to trial and wheth- CT any evidence of the plot would be divulged.
 During the weekend the govern ment issued call to it's supporters indicating the expectation of a motion for an adjournment of the House of Commons to discuss the entire matter and it was taken for granted that Ed ward 'Shortt, chief secretary for Ire land, would make a statement on be- half of the government.
 Interest was also manifest on the question of irritating negotiations for an exchange of British and German prisoners of war. Notices have been given in both houses of intention to ask the government to amplify their bare announcement of last Friday and the bulk of the members an agree ment be made on the lines of those concluded by France and Italy.

COAL OUTPUT TO -.
 CARRY ON WAR

Philadelphia, Pa., May 2s.-The production of coal in the United States for year beginning April 1 must reach 735,000,O00 net tons, J. D. A. Morrow, general director of dis tribution of the United States Fuel today told the Ma ltional Coal Association in convention here. This means an increase of 85,- 000,000 tons over the .production for the coal year 1917, if the war de- mands of the country are to be met. It is doubtful, Mr. Morrow said, if the production of anthracite coal can be increased over last years total of S9,000,000 gross tons. Therefore, the entire S5,000,000 tons must come from the bituminous mines.

Administration is so sure of the pas

over the country have been notified
to get help for the registration and
also it is reported that Maj. Rutlege

mail them out to the local boards.
Provost Marshall Gen. Crowder
has not made his views fully clear
as to exemptions and ETC., and will
probably not do so until the bill is
ready for passage. 1t is estimated
that about 100000 men will reg
lister from 18 to 81 and 81 to As
years of age and out of this number
of registrations it is estimated that
there will be 100000 men taken
for military duty, this should give us
an army of more than 100000 men
and will be one of the best and great
est equipped armies in the world
1t is thought that the registration
will take place on the 9Th of Sep
