HONORED BY ALL
Praise Accorded American Sol
dierS Is Universal.
70 Their Bravery and chivaIry on the
Field of Battle Has Been Added
Fine Generosity to an Un-
scrupuIous Enemy.

LET another man praise thee ant
not thine own mouth; stranger ano
not thine own lips" says an ancient
proverb; which is easier to obey than
1t has been sometimes, for the air is
resonant with adulation for this coun-
try and its people-praises for its be
nevoIence, energy, idealism, army and
navy.
We have exulted in the praise be-
slowed upon the boys in khaki for their
chivalry toward women, their gentle
ness TO little children, their high mo-
rale amid great temptations, and
their courage in battle. But these viz
tues were all exhibited TO friends and
allies.
Now comes. however, a testimony TO
their behavior toward their enemies,
which ought we think. 10 give US even
deeper joy.
Especial praise" says dispatch
from Amsterdam, twas given the
American troops Of occupation by
representative of the Berlin foreign
ministry on his return from TreveS.
The Judgment of all Germans, such
rs shopkeepers, hotel keepers and men
on the street, is that the behavior OF
the Americans is blameless.'
'BIameless :" Sans peur eft sans re-
prochel"
We pity the man or woman who can
read that testimony without choking
up a little bit. One ought not TO for
get that these young Americans are
among a people whom they have
learned to hate. If there has been one
thing above all others upon which they
universally agreed. it was loathing ana
horror for German frightfulness. In all
their letters home they wrote of their
irrepressible dread that the war might
be stopped in some way before they
had taken vengeance upon the Huns
for their bestial conduct toward
wounded men and helpless women and
children.
And now they are moving across the
country of their hated foes as conquer
ors! On every highway and at every
street corner they see the men VINO
have perpetrated these nameless nor
rors Those men are at their mercy.
And yet. upon the testimony of these
brutes themselves, their behavior is
blameless."
We read that they march through
these German cities grim and silent;
their faces white and their jaws set;
looking neither to the right hand nor
TO the left; self-contained and self
controlled. These are the men, re-
member, who went lover the top in

If the generation of lads now grow

War Coinage in Germany.

instituted iron coinage. The fraction

copper was discontinued in 1917 Alu-

now made of aluminium, which is more
attacked by ordinary water. soda,

What Doctor Pierce Has
Done for Humanity
BY DOCTOR CRIPPS.

It has always seemed to me that Dr.
Pierce, of Buffalo, y. y, should be placed
near the top when a list of Americas
great benefaetors is written. He studied
and conquered human diseases to a de-
gree that few realize. Whenever he found
a remedy that overcame disease, he at
once announced it in the newspapers and
told where it could be bought at small
price. He did not follow the usual custom
of keeping the ingredients secret. So that
the rich only could afford to buy the
medicine, but openly printed tho name Of
each root and herb. he used. And So today
the names of Or. Pierce and his medicines
are widely known, and they stand for bet
ter health and better citizenship.
