WILSON ASKS
AMERICANS TO
BUY BONDS

Washington. April 21.-Presi-
dent Wilson has cabled this mes
sage to the American people:
For two anxious years the
American people have striven to
fulfill the task of saving our civil
lization. BY the eXertion of un-
measured power they have
quickly Won the victory, without
which they would have remained
in the field until the last resource
had been exhausted.
bringing to the contest a
strength of spirit made doubly
strong by the righteousness of
their cause. they devoted them
selves unswervingly to the prose-
cution of their undertaking, in
the full knowledge that no con-
quest lay in their path, excepting
the conquest of right.
To-day the world stands freed
from the threat of militarism,
which has so long weighed upon
the spirit and the labor of peace
full nations. But as vet we stand
only at the threshold of happier
times. To enter. we must fulfill
to the utmost the engagements
we have made. The Victory Lib
erty Loan is the indispensable
means.
Two years ago We pledged
our lives and fortunes to the
cause for which we have fought.
Sixty thousand of our strongest
sons have redeemed for us that
pledge of blood. To redeem in
full faith the promise of this sac
rifice, we now must give this new
evidence of our purpose.

Small Men Picked by Huns
\ statement issued last evening by
the Havas News Bureau, semi
official agency, says that surprise has
been manifested over the fact that
Germany didn't select more import
ant men for her peace delegation
than DR.. Haniel Won Haimhausen,
Herr Won Keller, Ernst Schmidt
Herr Reimker and Herr Luders, and
also that, according to the German
note, they will have power only to
receive the text of the terms and not
to sign the treaty.
1t is declared this evening, the
statement adds, that ''in these cir
cumstances, the sending of these
delegates to Versailles would be use
less" The announcement by Count
Won Brockdorff- Rantzau, the German
foreign minister. that his govern
ment would send delegates without
full powers TO receive the peace
terms and transmit them to the Ger
man government, has contributed
greatly, the newspapers say, toward
an alliance between France. Great
Britain and America. The French
press insists that negotiations look

Italian situation Critical

Italian Situation Critical
Dispatches from Paris indicate
that the situation caused by Italy's
unyieldinE attitude has reached a
critical phase. News from the Peace
Conference on Sunday showed that
representatives of Great Britain
France and Italy, the three nations,
together with Russian signatory to
the treaty of London, framed at Lon
don in 1918 the entry into the war
on the side of the Entente. were in
conference and that President Will
son was not present. 1t was also
announced he would not be present
when conversations were reopened
to-day.
Mr.. Wilson has stood out against
recognition of the treaty of London.
upon which Italy's maximum claims
are based. His absence from the
meeting yesterday might have been
caused by the fact that the Italians
were invoking that convention in
support of their territorial claims.
In spite of the warning sent to
Germany by the Peace Conference,
that the delegates she sends to the
Peace Conference must not be mere
messengers" Germany has selected
rather unimportant persons to go to
Versailles. Berlin adyices say these
men will have the power merely to
receive the peace terms and take
them to Berlin. The German cabi-
net will either accept or reject the
terms, it is said, or submit them
to the people.
Dispatches from Paris. however,
reflect a rather positive attitude on
the party OF the Peace Conference,
which. it is said. will inform Ger
many that the men she sends to Yer
sailles must have power to sign the
treaty OF peace. 1t is said that the
first act OF the meeting to be held on
April % will be 10 demand evidence
from the Germans that they possess
such powers.
Bolshcyism on Back Truck
BolsheVism is again on the back
track on the western Ckrainian
front. the strength of the Soviet
forces having apparently been con-
centrated in the effort to overrun the
Crimea. which has been successful.
The cities of Zhitomir and Prosku-
rova. in the Ukraine have been re-
taken from the Bolsheviki by forces
commanded by Simon Petlura, the
Ckrainian peasant leader. 1t is an
nounced that 10000 Bolsheviki SOL
diers have deserted in body and
have joined the tkrainians.
In Northern Russia, Bolsheviki
forces are in retreat and are being
closely pursued by British, Amer
lean and Russian troops.
Vienna is in the hands of Soviet
adherents. 1t appears the transfer
of authority there was brought about
without great disorder or bloodshed.
Munich is probably still held in So
Wet. but German government troops
before the BaVarian capital have
been reinforced by soldiers from

At an early age, Eugene Pullen was
an express driver. He handled railroad
baggage. One day after delivering a
heavy trunk on an upper floor he felt
a pain in the right groin The suffer-
ing increased and it was not long be-
fore the young man noticed the swell
ing
The doctor told young Pullen that
he was ruptured and that he must
either wear a truss throughout life or
submit to a drastic operation. All
surgeons know that hernia operations.
with anaesthetics, etc. are dangerous:
they may end fatally. Moreover. it
is a well established fact that many
rupture operations are not successful;
the bowel soon breaks through the
sewed-up opening and protrudes worse
than ever.
Afraid OF Operation.
Like most others, Mr.. Pullen de-
clined to take the risks of an opera
ton: the expense and loss of time had
to be considered, too. Hoping he might
get a little better encourage ment. he
went to another physician. who, to his
sorrow, gave him even less hope. 1t
was pointed out to the young man that
unless the rupture were perfectly held
all the time or the surgeons Knife sue
cessfully used. he might expect an in
crease or doubling in the rupture with
further complications, or the dreaded
strangulated hernia, which kills so
many ruptured people.
Victim OF Trusscs.
The victim bought truss. hard.
springlike affair. the best he could
get 1t tortured him. He tried an
other-still no relief. He was Conn
PEELED to give up his express business.
The hard tasks of ordinary men were
forbidden him. He became an insur-
ance agent in which position he did
not need to do bodily work.
For six years Mr.. Pullen dragged
around, using various trusses hard,
elastic, etc. with never any content
ment. One day his mother told him
something she had just found out IL
was simple and easy thing for him
to do. He lost no time.
Discarded His Truss.
Relief came at once: he almost for
6ot that he had any rupture. After
ward came a cure-a complete heal

and Mr.. Pullen is an energetic carpen-
ter, working on buildings, climbing
over roofs, lifting lumber and such
like. he is absolutely free from the old
hernia; He knows he is completely.
lastingly cured. There was no opera
ton. no lost time. no trouble-comfort
and contentment from the very outset
He is strong, cheerful-minded man.
