ALLIES TO WIN WITHIN YEAR
Premier Ciemenceau Makes Statement
to Senator Lewis.

Paris, Aug. 21.-It is the belief Of
Premier Clemenceau that complete
triumph will be won during the pres
ent year by the arms of the entente
allies, and that the war will have end
ed before another year has passed, ac-
cording to the understanding reached
by United States Senator J. Hamilton
Lewis Of Illinois Of remarks Of the
premier during lengthy conversation
with him. The gist of the conversa-
ton, with the consent Of M. Clemen-
ceau, has been given to the press by
Senator Lewis. Premier Clemenceau
paid high tribute to President Wilson
and secretary Baker. The first show
ing of the American troops had
amazed France with their bravery and
soldierly perfection, he said. The pre-
mier declared that the work Of the
American troops on the battlefield did
more to terrOrize Germany than any
other thing the enemy has met. He
said France had every confidence now
that this war was on the way to i'm
mediate victory.

LIFE FIFTY CENTURIES AGO
Points Of Resemblance to That
Of the Present Day.

Translation of prehistoric tablets In
the University Of Pennsylvania mu-
scum at Philadelphia has revealed that
women mayors were regularly consti-
tuted public officials in Asia Minor
5000 years ago. That prototypes of
newspaper men at that remote time,
true to more modern traditions Of the
profession, occasionally became in
volved in litigations of the present day
'libel suit" character, but generally
were released ION bail" is also indi-
Gated In the newly deciphered writ
ings.
The translations which concern a
once-powerful, well-organized govern
ment and people Of which nearly all
trace has been lost through long for
gotten centuries have just been COM
pleted by DR.. A. B. Sayce Of Oxford
university, famous oriental scholar He
copied the tablets two years ago and
took the copies to Egypt, where he
was finally able to master their time
ShrOuded messages.
The tablets were the work of Hit
tites Of Cappadocians, whose national
boundaries 80 centuries ago extended
from the Mediterranean to the Black
sea and from the headquarters Of the
Euphrates into what is now Persia.
Each province was subdivided into
cities, and these were supervised by a
mayor and prefectress, whose pow
ers, the tablets indicate, were co-ordi-
mated. In one instance it appeared the
woman mayor had an official status in
dependent Of the male head Of the
municipal" government.
An insight into many other interest
ing and hitherto unknown phases of
life in the ancient kingdoms whose
lands comprised the present-day Meso-
potamian battle grounds are afforded
by Doctor Sayce's discoveries.

Mecca for the Fat.

"Go to Mesopotamia and perspire" is
the reply of a writer in the Seattle
Post-Intelligencer to a person who is
searching for reliable cure for fat. In
that climate fat person simply melts
and runs down. AS early In the morn
ing as daybreak one awakes to find
himself bathed In perspiration. The
"coop Of the night means tempera-
ture of 80 degrees; by eleven o'clock
the temperature rises to 12O degrees,
and at midday the air simply burns the
lungs. Nobody remains fat in Meso-
pOtamia. and nobody works If 1t can be
avoided, and Sulim tells me that it
generally Is avoided under the pretext
Of turning everything over to Allah.
All this fat pilgrim needs in Mesopota-
mia is somebody to support him. If
this can be arranged, the fat takes
care Of itself. However. one might re-
duce, even In this climate, quite hand
fly while looking for somebody to sup
port one.

Claimed for Capture.

machine-gun positions having been re-
ported by prisoner. According to the
Americans, the Prussians were waiting
to be taken prisoner. The intelligence
officer who questioned the Prussians
asserted that they nearly all had
agreed to surrender If the slightest
opportunity arose.
The Americans, who took the prison
ers, do not claim any credit for the
capture, declaring that the Prussians
virtually deserted their posts.
A German prisoner taken Sunday
told an intelligence officer he believed
that If the battle line recedes to Ger
many proper, the fighting spirit of the
German soldiers will be greatly stimu-
lated.

Medicinal Literature.

The London Lancet departs for q
moment from the austere halls of sci
ence to adventure into the fields and
gardens Of literature, though keeping
one foot safe within the accustomed
medical precincts. The Lancet dis
cusses nothing less worthy than the
works, writings, theories, maxims and
pleasantries of Master Francois Ra-
belais, the point being that his diver
sions into letters were simply part Of
his days work as practical medico.
He wrote, the Lancet assures us, not
for the untold generations of the fu-
ture, not for the delectation Of our
own selves, but solely and strictly to
amuse, hearten and brace up the spir-
its Of his patients during the tedium
Of their Illness, thereby aiding his
cures and adding to his stature as a
member Of the faculty.
= Master Francois was q great believ-
er in the therapeutic value of litera-
ture.
