DOCTORS URGE
 PEOPLE TO USE 7 MORE IRON AND
 PHOSPHATES
They Come Out Strong For
 Phosphated Iron

Leading doctors all over the coun- try are rapidly learning that one of the preparations they can always de- pend on for blood and nerve troubles is Phosphated Iron, they have found flat it gives results and can be de- pended upon.
 Phosphated Iron has proved a real red blood and nerve builder in the spring season when so many are all run down and dragged out, due to lack of fresh air. exercise, green foods and clogged poisoned blood. Scien- lists say Phosphated Iron builds up your body by building up your blood and nerves, and many physicians claim there would be few over-work- ed men, nervous women, bloodless old people and pale children, were the benefits of Phosphated Iron more widely known, that there is no need of anyone going around tired out, all in, nerves on edge, suffering with poor blood and lack of energy when Phos- phated Iron will make you feel like a live one, make you look. 100 per cent. better, give you restful sleep, brace you up so you can work with ease and enjoy life once again.
 Get Phosphated Iron today and start in right. you owe it to yourself and friends.
 To insure physicians and their pa tients getting the genuine Phosphated Iron we have put in capsules. Do not take pills or tablets. Insist on cap- 1 sules.

Safety First
Kaiser Always Travels in
Armored Train.

The train of Emperor William has
seven partly armored cars and a loco
motive designed to withstand even
bomb and shell attacks. EVERYTHING
that makes for efficiency is provided,
including a library car. on the walls of
which hang hundreds of military maps,
notes the Railway Age Gazette.
The special train that the car of
Russia used to travel in with its IL
cars providing apartments for the czar,
his suite and guard, II real Russian
bath. kitchen and Il chapel and all the
comforts of palace. was formerly the
most elaborate owned by any Euro
pean ruler.
The train of the president of the
French republic. although not the most
luxurious of the official trains of Eu-
rope. has perhaps the most interesting
history of them all. 1t has figured in
more important political events than
any of the others. and was carried at
some time nearly all of the great men
of the world.
President Faure ordered the train
hurriedly built in the autumn Of 1896
for the purpose of carrying to Paris
the car of Russia, whose visit at that
time cemented the alliance between
France and Russia. The whole train
was huilt.in 10 days. so hastily was
the private personal car built that not
until the tenth day did it occur to any,
one that the car might wish to take
bath. SO the roof of the car was
promptly cut open and n space made
large enough to allow the lowering of
huge silver bath tub into n corner
of the car The tub is there after all
these years, and so is the patch in the
car roof. The train has its own special
shed at Nilleneuvo st. Georges. some
miles out of Paris.
One of the most important trips since
the war began occurred in October.
1915, when it conveyed the king of
England to the French front, where he
reviewed in company with President
Poincare 10000 of the troops that had
taken part in the battle of Champagne.
Unlike the imperial trains. the
French presidents train is not armored
and 1t has 10 protection whatever
against bullets and shells. 1t was built
at a time when no one thought that
necessary. The four cars are elabo-
rately upholstered in red and yellow
silk relrets and are Of wood.

NO "SKINBACKS" GO NOW.

We have not been favored with
an advance copy of the forthcom-
ing speech of Mr.. Townley at the
Great Falls convention. As an
other issue of Liberty bonds is to
be offered to the people very
soon, it is just possible that Mr..
Townley may find that a timely
subject.
What would we expect Mr..
Townley to say? Very likely
this: "Why should we buy Lib
erty bonds when the government
asks us to pay enormous profits
for the equipment to run our
farms? We will never get any
thing from the government for
anything we do in this struggle.
Why should we help the govern
ment if they will not help u.s."
That was what Mr.. Townley
said at Williston, North Dakota,
last June. A fine leader Of men,
is he not, at the very hour of the
crisis which the president says
has arrived, and is to determine
whether America is to be a land
Of free people or Hun colony of
American slaves?
The members of the NOn-par-
tisan league must either depose
Mr.. Townley or accept his
views of the war as their own.
Mr.. Townlcy has gone too far to
square himself by recanting his
opinions of eight months ago.

THE TUsCANIA.

There are many haggard faces
and fearful eyes in American
homes this morning. With Ter
rible anxiety men and women are
awaiting the death list of the
fighting boys who We're lost
at sea when the transport
Tuscania was sunk off the coast
Of Ireland, presumably by a Ger
man submarine. 1t is the first
disaster Of the sort during the
war. Naturally, it leads to
various surmises, since we are
told that the Tuscania was under
the escort of British warships
Nearly half a million Canadian
troops have been transported
without the loss Of a man. From
Secretary Bakers recent state
ment to the senate committee, we
may infer that about 100000
American troops. have been
transported with like safety.
No longer is the war 5000
miles away, as Mr.. Baker said
The loss Of the Tuscania has
brought it straight to our homes
It reminds us forcibly that there
has been too much tolerance in
dealing with the enemies within
our borders. The boys on the
Tuscania will not have died in
vain, if the sacrifice serves ia

JOHN l.. KNEW.

We would not care much for a
boy who is not interested in ath-
letics, to some degree, at least.
We have lot of confidence in
the boy who aspires to a record
in running or jumping, and looks
forward to the day he may be the
hero of varsity football game,
or the pitcher who let the other
fellows down without a hit. To
these boys in particular we com
mend This suggestion from the
late John J.. Sullivan, to a news
boy who wanted to be an athlete
Drinking rum takes a. lot out

inside and cuts his wind. II you're

Don't think boys, that John J..
did not know what he was talking
about. He lost the championship
of the world after having held it
twelve years, because whiskey
made the way easy for his
defeat at the hands of Corbett.
We are strong for specialized adj
vice, meaning by that that one
should go for advice on a certain
subject to the one who knows
that subject best. That is why
we think the suggestion of John
L., an athlete and at one time, a
drunkard, of particular interest
on the relationship of rum to ath-
letics.

Inventors Are Trying
to Help Win the War

One of the busiest places in the world
Just now is the United States patent
Office. where thousands Of inventors
are striving to show the government
Just how the war can be won. Secrc-
tary Daniels OF the navy has 10000
separate suggestions along this Ii;.o
and Secretary Baker of the army long
since lost count. Some of them are
highly interesting.
There was an Ohio man who advised
that millions OF potato bugs Re
sprinkled over Germany from aero
planes. This suggestion is not half so
futile as it might seem. Germany got
the potato from America and it has
been her mainstay in this war. Then
why should We not send American
potato bugs to destroy the German
vines and so starve the foe?
Another man hit upon a method Of
guarding London against air raids. He
advocated that thousands Of tiny bal
looms, each carry several ounces of
nigh explosives be suspended above
the city by means OF strings. The
moment that a bold Zeppelin raider
or aeronaut ran into this barrage he
would set off the explosives and be
dashed to pieces. And no one can say
that the idea is not logical. It is based
upon the same principle as mining a
harbor. Who knows that in the future
wars we may not attempt to mine the
air? Perhaps the inventive man is a
new Archimedes.
Your true inventor also is something
OF a poet, and certainly n dreamer. 1t
is given to such men to see things,
Their visions have been milestones on
the road of civilization. And the shah
by fellow with the soiled collar who
looks at you out of child's eyes may
have an idea in his brain that will
send the world forward a hundred
years in single night. But that could
hardly be expected Of the Frenohman
who went to the war office In Paris
with guaranteed scheme for breaking
the German line. He proposed to cor
raj all of the dogs that could be found.
and set them to take the German
trenches. First he would have fastened
to each dogs head an automatic pistol
with muzzle arrangement fitting over
the dogs mouth. Then each time the
dog barked, the automatic would have
been discharged. And when an army
corps of dogs was sent against the
Germans all barking and firing furi-
ously the foe could have done no less
than retreat. But this inventor failed
In one particular. He neglected to
specify how the dogs were to be made
to bark at the right moment. Which
was very similar to the man who in
vented the train that would run with
out motive power. He described every
thing in detail. save the way to drive
his train.

the breakdown of the nations
morale, then Germany can win.
The war can have but one end if
we keep the strength that is with
in rs.
But, it is asked, why is Ger
many not being beaten? Why is
it that she alone is fighting on
conquered territory?
The answer is that Germany
entered the war in the most mar
velons state of preparedness con-
ceivablc. Her people We're united
to the last man; she was ideally
conditioned for The war. Yet She
failed because there was at least
one great source Of strength
ready to the last shoe lace. That
was the British navy. But for
the men who have made England
terrible at sea, Germany today
would have had The world i'm her
mailed fist. ...
The other answer Is That while
Germany entered the war ideally
prepared, the allies had to pre-
pare after the war started We
need not say with what great
progress that preparedness has
been made. And now We have
reached the crisis, as President
Wilson says, where Germany is
to make her final test Of strength.
Does it not seem the very
height of folly at this stage Of the
war TO discuss any form Of peace
save that which would make the
world safe for democracy for all
time? ......

Don't Put Flag
on Knitted Blankets.

Patriotic knitters who have been
fashioning reproductions of Old Glory
into yarn quilts for wounded soldiers
are advised by the Red Cross not to
do so any longer. To knit the flag in
this way is not proper. according to
the federal statutes governing use of
the national ensign.
Naturally the motives Of people who
do this are so laudable that the law
will never be exercised in such cases.
but the Red Cross is anxious to have
the law obeyed.
Scraps of yarp are being used by

squares which are sewed together into

WHERE VICTORY LIES?

We offer TO our readers for re-
Election a few statistics; not be-
cause they are new, or more time
ly now than six months ago, but
for reference when some of us are
inclined to linger too long in the
caves Of gloom. Engaged on one
side in this war are the entente
allies, Great Britain, including her
colonies, France, Italy, Japan,
Russia, China. Siam, Portugal, the
United States, and a few minor
countries. On the other side are
the Teutonic allies, Germany,
Austria, Turkey and Bulgaria.
The population of the entente al
lies is 473,25O,O0O and of the Teu-
tonic, 1i7,OOO,0OO. The entente
have in The army and navy
2i,AOO,0o0 fighting men and the
opponents have 1i,OOOOOO, or, re
d9ced to percentages, the total
men engaged are 66 per cent en-
tente and "a per cent Teutonic.
Of the total man power, that of
the entente is 9i,1OO,OOO and of
the Teutonic, 25,O50,OOO, or 1875
percent, against 2i.5.
The total national debt of the
entente is $S3,96O,OOO,OOO or lat
per cent OF their wealth. while
that Of the Teutonic is S3S.5OO.-
10000 or 1871 per cent. The total
entente income is $S2. 400 1000. 900
and the Teutonic $4,000, OOO, 900.
We know that since the begin
ming of the war, the loss of the
entente allies is 8 per cent of
their original man power. while
that of the central powers is 20
per cent.
Can anyone doubt the result of
this war if it goes to the finish?
