Lords. Earl Curzon, lord president Of
the council and member Of the war
cabinet. has explained that under the
new scheme adopted at Versailles.

disposal, which they could add to
Haig's forces Or send elsewhere, ac-
cording to the exigencies of the mo-
ment.

SMOOTH STOCK SELLER
IS AGAIN IN TROUBLE

NEW YORK, February 25-Osmer
s. Roper, twice convicted of swindling.
the second time at Trenton in 1900,
for using the mails to defraud, has
again appeared in a stock selling
proposition in thesman but prosperous
town of Vineland N. j., thirty-eight
miles from Philadelphia.
Roper was notorious in 1895 and
1900, He was supposed to have made
hundreds of thousands of dollars in
his swindling schemes before he was
finally tried and convicted. Hos for
mer activities were concentrated on
selling worthless stock in land and
building companies or inducing pros
pective borrowers to purchase shares
in bogus loan companies.
He now appears eighteen years af-
ter his last conviction, still wearing
his neatly trimmed beard, turned
snow white, as a guileless farmer who
has devoted his life to raising pigs,
As patriotic inducement to buy stock,
he has called attention to the gov
ernments war measure advocating
increased production of pork
Roper, in November, 1916, incor-
porated his twenty-three acre farm
outside of Vineland, under the title
of the Farm Ridge Farm Company
with capital stock of $125,000, sell
ing shares at $50 each He has sold
several hundred shares and has paid
dividends His activities have already
attracted the attention of the post Of
fee inspectors in Philadelphia, who
have received complaints from his out
of-town stockholders.
The authorities, after receiving a
complaint from Frank R. Phillips of
invested 5000, his LIES savings, in
twelve shares of this stock, discovered
that Roper was the same man who
had been twice convicted in New Jer-
sey for promoting similar schemes af-
ter he had made thousands of dollars
in dipping the public. Even at that
time he was rated as an old man and
obtained a light sentence because of
his age.

SUMMER HOMES
ROBBED BY BURGLARS

NEW YORK, February 25--A bundle
Of fine table linen discovery yester-
Gay beside small roadside in Oyster
Bay started Constable j. S.. Thompson
On an investigation resulting in the
discovery that six summer homes in
the neighborhood had been systemati-
cally plundered. He expects to find
more when he continues his investi,
cation today
The villager who found the bundle
o. linen decided it had been josled
from a wagon. 1t was not a public
way, and so he notified Constable
Thompson. The monogram on tse
linen led the investigators to the sum,
ner home of Donald Abbott, lawyer,
al 6S William street, this city
A window had been smashed, the
latch turned and entry achieved, the
house thoroughly searched Clothes
were pulled from closets and drawers
dragged out on the floor All the lin
en-. and much summer clothing seemed
to have been carted away. After talk
ing over the telephone with Constable
Thompson Mr.. Abbott said he estimat-
ed that $500 worth of furnishings haG
geen stolen. The linen, he said, was
a wedding present.
Guided by footprints in the snow
and ruts in the private roadways, the
constable entered other homes. He
found the thieves had been in the
house of Mrs. Florence E. Rock, widow
Of a New York moving picture man.
4 mile further down the shore road
the home of James Doig, who is in
Florida for the winter, was in wild
disarray. Furniture was missing. In
Bayyille, the house of ]. A. Schafeer
Ct Brooklyn, had been raided. In Lo-
Gust Valley, the place of Frank Bailey
vice-president Of the Title Guarantee
and Trust Company, had been ransacb-
ed The house owned by p W

GERMAN DEBT IS
MUCH TOO HEAVY

NEW YORK, February 25.-The
steady increase in Germany's national
debt owing to the war and the delay
| III adopting a sweeping plan OF tax
alton reform to care for the increased
liabilities of the empire, already more
than twenty times higher than the
national debt at the outbreak of the
war, is a source of constant concern
t. German financial experte.
In the Berlin Tageblatt of January
5, Arthur Norden, the papers financial
expert, sharply criticizes the failure of
the government to provide for any
redemption of the war debt aside from
proviso establishing a redemption
fund for the IL per cent treasury
certificates which formed a small part
Of the last two war loans. He calls
for radical measures to check the pill
ing UP of the burden of war indebted
ness.
Norden contrasts with the policy of
Germany, which, as is known, has
not provided even enough increased
taxation to meet the interest on its
war debt and is paying a part of the
| interest coupons of earlier war loans
from new borrowings, with that OF
Great Britain which, he points out
had raised by taxation almost twenty
I'VE per cent of its war expenditures
down to the end of 1917.
The argument that heavier tax
alton of war profits, which make UP
the 5ulk of the nominal increase in
| Cermany's capital would interfere
with the productiveness OF German in,
dustry and the fear that increased tax
alton of incomes would kill the war
willingness of the population are dis
missed as unfounded. In fact, Mr.
Norden argues, to attack the alb
normally high war incomes attained
in certain industries and by certiar
elements Of the population would be
of decided value in cutting down the
high cost'of living resulting from the
eAtravagant standards Of life amone
the war proGteers.
Norden cites the action of the Amer
lean government in establishing maxi
mum prices for steel and other ma
terlsia of war industry and in i'm
mediately Introducing hig war take
as an admirable example for Germany
to follow and speaks with admiration
of the Wilson plan Of taking over the
railroads.
Norden's scheme for taking care Of
the state debt comprises a radical in.
! crease in the tax on incomes, not upon
capital as generally contemplated by
German fnanciers. He holds that the
proposed taxes upon capital merely
lead to extrayagant spending, while
| the income tax can be so adjusted tc
beat heaviest upon the recipients Of
high war incomes

Let me save you from the scrap heap:
 Doctor, I am not sick, but I don't feel right That is what many say first time. And that just expresses it. You are not sick enough to go to bed. You can eat, you can sleep, you can work.
 But you don't work with the vim and zest of former days. Your sleep is not restful, and you don't enjoy your food as you once did. And your nerves get the best of you. Things bother you, ruffle you, that you never noticed before. You begin to see diff ticulties where there really are none. Trif1es worry you, and not having enough troubles of your own, you borrow some.
 Of course. to a casual observer, you ing to control yourself. And if you should tell a friend, or go to ar in experienced doctor, they will tell you you only imagine things; you should shake it off. You begin to doubt your self. You sometimes think they are right and try to brace up and be bright and cheerful. But then your old feeling will come back with re- newed vigor. You begin to wonder if it really is your mind only. And if it is so, is it the first step to insan- ity? Anguishing thoughts begin tor turing you; you are trying your best to fight them down, to appear happy, but in vain. You find yourself in the grip of an invisible power that seems to sap your life blood.
 And when you feel your strength energy and power slipping away from you, when you find you can't do jus tice to your work any longer, then you become Respondent and might even feel tempted to end it all.
 You are very much in the same condition as a delicately constructed engine, which has not been cared for right. Put it in the hands of an ex- perienced man and he will soon have it in fine working order. But trying your own hand at it, or turn it over to an unskilled person, and it will soon be fit for the scrap heap
