About Rheumatism

Rheumatism causes more pam and
suffering than any other disease, for
the reason that it is the most COM
mon of all ills, and it is certainly
gratifying to sufferers to know that
there is a remedy that will afford re-
lief. and make rest and sleep possible.
1t is called Chamberlain's Liniment.

Cause Of Headache

BY knowing the cause disease
may often be avoided. This is par
tieularly true Of headache. The most
common cause of headache is disor-
dered stomach or constipation, which
may be corrected by taking a few
doses of Chamberlain's Tablets. Try
it. Many othres have obtained per-
manent relief by taking these Tablets.
They are easy to take and mild and
gentle in effect.

pouRT AS 10 FATE

WASHINGTON, July 12.-Announce ment in the German cOmmunique to- day that the sixth plane of the Amer ican squadron, which attempted to bomb COblenz had been shot down left doubt as to the fate of the oc' cupants. It was believed here the men in the other five machines re ported yesterday from Berlin as in German hands were captured unin- jured The Berlin statement yester day said the five machines fell into German hands and their failure to re turn was reported today in General Pershing's communique.
 Officers here believe that the five planes were forced to land either by reason of a storm or because they ran out of gasoline and it was sup posed that the fliers destroyed their machines before being captured.
 American avistors have carried out a number Of raids behind the German lines, but this is the first time that a raiding expedition has met with fail ure so far as reports here show.

Virtually Every Important Transportation System in Country Represented at Gathering in New York
CRv Revlew Leased Wlrel

NEW YORK. July 12-Railway executives embracing virtually every important transportion system in the country, their legal advisors and a committee representing the National Association of Owners of Railroad Sc curities, held a joint session here to- day to discuss a standard form of contract acceptable to the government, the railroads and holders of such secu- rities.
 At the conclusion of the conference T. De Witt Cuyler, chairman of the railway executive advisory committee, issued a statement accepting in the main, the contract recently formulated by the federal administration, subject to notifications already virtually guaranteed. These, it is said, concede Q greater measure of protection to pay ment of interest on bonds.
 The securities owners association whose holdings are estimated at fully four billions of dollars did not concur in the action of the railroad men and adopted resolutions instrueting their counsel to prepare amendments to the proposed contract.

laterally and to attack the strong points from the rear.
 Particulars on the American posi- tions:
 No details are available. The pris- oners are hardly able to state where they were in position According to their statements it may be assumed that the front line consists only of rifle pits one meter deep, up to the present not provided with wire entan- elements. The organization of the pO- sitions in rear is unknown.
 General:
 Morale:
 'The prisoners in general make an alert and pleasing impression; regard ing military matters, however. they do not show the slightest interest. Their superiors keep them purpOsely with out knowledge of military subjects, for example, most of them have never seen a map. They are no longer able to describe the villages and roads through which they marched. Their ideas on the organization of their unit are entirely confused. For example. one of them claimed that his brigade has six regiments, his division twenty four. They still agreed the war from the point of view of the Big Brother who comes to help his hard pressed brother and is therefore welcomed ev- erywhere. A certain moral background is not lacking; the majority of the prisoners simply took as matter of course that they have come to Europe in order to defend their country.
 "Only a few of the troops are of pure American origin; the majority is of German, Dutch and Italian parent age, but these semi-Americans, almost all of whom were born in America and never have been in Europe, fully feel themselves to be true-born sons of their country.
