Rupture Kills
1000 Annually

Seven thousand persons each year are laid
away-the burial certificate being marked
Rupture" Why? Because the unfortunate
ones had neglected themselves or had been
merely taking care of the sign (swelling) Of
the affliction and paying no attention to
the cause. What you doing? Are you
neglecting yourself by wearing truss, APP
pliance, or whatever name you choose to call
it? At best, the truss is only a makeshift
a false prop against collapsing wall-and
cannot be expected to act as more than a
mere mechanical support. The binding pres
sure retards blood circulation, thus robbing
tie weakened muscles of that which they
need most-nourishment.
But science has found a way, and every
truss sufferer in the land is invited to make
FREE test right in the privacy of their
own home. The PLAPAO method is unques-
tionably the most scientific, logical and sue
ccssful sef-treatment for rupture the world
has ever known.
The PLAPAO Pad, when adhering closely
to the body, cannot possibly slip or shift
out of place, therefore cannot chafe
pinch Soft velvet-easy to apply-inex-
pensive. To be used whilst you work and
whilst you sleep. No straps, buckles or
springs attached.

 Must See Clearly
 So much for our position in the eyes of Europe; to make the story complete We need word as to the view We should take of England and France. Developments in the peace confer. ence, which cannot be explained min utely in cabled reports, may be mis. understood in America if our people do not take a sane view of the situa- tion.

Of one thing Americansmay be sure: President Wilson will not wish to leave France in any position but one of security. In the meantime. those at time should remember what France has suffered and be patient in judgment if some of her fiery spokes- men go hit far.
 An Encouraging Situation
 One RnRnOrQuinrr oh sessions of the peace conference has been the practical unanimity of spirit ol the English and American dele. gaes They have stood together on almost all poitns. President Wilson. Premier Lloyd George. Secretary Bal four and others of the British repre- sentatives, seem to be moved by the same considerations of common sense and far sightedneSs. The hope of brotherly good will between our coun. try and Britain in the future rests upon our common fund of common horse sense, as well as upon ties of olood and our identical language.
 To the American abroad, whether soldier or civilian, America never has locked so worth while. so inspriring. SS now. Every man in the army longs -cr the land of plenty; every man is an ardent patriot. After the laden skies and the mud of France. the bright sunshine the clear skies. the crisp aid and the clean streets of our home cities will seem like heaven to the returning warriors.
 It is very great privilege to be an American citizen, and one of the best ways to exercise that privilege is to be a true and sincere friend to the friendly people of other lands.

 Some amazing stories have been told to me-" said Assistant United States Attorney Gordon Lawson yes terday. T have heard of fortunes be- ing acquired in the last year by those who have trafficked in whisky on a large scale.
 Women are said to have been per sistent offenders. I am told that wo- men of wealth and prominence have come to Los Angeles and returned with enough whisky concealed in false pockets in their skirts to pay the expenses of their trips. Others have carried suitcases and trunksful of the booze back to Arizona. Several persons have informed us that whisky is easily obtainable anywhere in Ari- zona today by the man who has the price. The profits reaped by the boot leggers are big"
