Foes Hold American
3 Years to Teach Use
Of Artificial Limbs

NEW YORK. May 1.-THE
Frederick VIII, of the Scandinav-
ian American line. from Copen-
hagen. brought Edward r. Smith
as one of the passengers. Mr..
Smith has no arms of flesh and
blood.
For nearly three years. Mr..
Smith had been in Germany,
teaching the Huns the use of
artificial limbs. He went to Ger
many before the United States
went into the war. The Germans
realized that they would have
need of many artificial limbs.
and therefore bought the German
rights to the patents of an Amer
lean firm of artificial limb manu-
facturers. When this country
entered the war Mr.. Smith could
not get out of Germany. his con-
Germ having contracted for a term
of years to make the Germans
expert with artificial limbs.
Eleven years ago Mr.. Smith lost
both of his arms above the elbows
in a threshing machine accident.
He became so expert with arti-
fetal arms and hands that he OBJ
tanned employment with the COM
pany that manufactured them.
Il do not exactly relish the job
I had teaching the Germans how
TO use their artificial limbs after
we went into the war" said Mr..
Smith, but they would not let me
go back on the contract they held
and l had 10 stick to il. Things
are pretty bad in GarmanY."

BAKERS ARMY PLAN ABANDONED

Secretary Baker SAYS that the war depart
ment viii make no further efforts to promote
its army plan; that the determination of our
military establishment viii be left to congress.
Two factors have ended the war department
rather militant support of its measure. One IS
the plainly evident dislike of the people for
large standing army and its preference for
citizen army: another Is the frank support by
General Pershing of universal training for
period long enough to make it effective IN pro
Iducing a reserve force to meet military emerS-
Iencies Then, too. the war department is dis
appointed in the voluntary enlistment which 1t
has secured under the present regulation; the
army is at present some thirty thousand below
the number allowed under the last legislative
act. and the national guard units are far below
their quota. The showing thus far made fore
casts great difficulty for a project to double the
size of our regular army by voluntary enlist
ment. 1t is perhaps unwarranted to believe
that the treaty ratification prospect is also
factor in the lesSened activity of the war de-
Partment but as popular dislike of mandates
and foreign police work becomes more clearly
evident. one cause for the war department. de
1nand for large regular force is less operative.
How much OF the half-miIion army it wanted
was in advance allotted to foreign service the
public does not know, but it IS supposable that
with less OF such service than was forecast like
ly to be authorized. the estimate of army re-
quirement is lessened-

Eve know that the forty-four hour week
cannot feed and cIorhe the world, - declared the
farmers IN convention, and while pledging a
helping hand 20 honest organized labor" they
condemned the treason OF false leaders who
for pay and price would scuttle the ship of
state and rear the red flag OF bolshevisIn over
tie ranks Of an outraged and fallen republic. -
In all great national crises the farmers have
stood firmly on the side OF Law and order. They
have been q restraining force against radical
srn and disorder They have never allowed
themselves to be led far astray from the plain
path OF right and fair play by irresponsible
leaders Il Is evident that the safety OF the ma
ton hes 70 large extent in the buiyark of in
teIIigent conservatism maintained by its twelve
million patriotic, peace-loying, law-abiding
farmers.
The farmers are organizing and demanding
their rights: but they are not asking for special
favors, They want justice and equality for
themselves a. well as for other people. Organ
lied, they viii be more efficient and better able

Thin, Nervous People
Iced Biiro-P Phosphate

Weak. thin people-men or women
are nearly always nervous wrecks;
ii.us conclusively proving that thin
ness. weakness, debility and neuras-
thenia are almost invariably due to
nerve starvation. Feed your nerves
and ali these symptoms due to nerve
starvation win disappear.
Eminent specialists state that one
OF the best things for the nerves IS an
organic phosphate known among drug
gists as Bitro-Phosphate, five-grain
tablet of which should be taken with
each meal Being a genuine nerve
builder and not stimulant or habit
forming drug. Bitro-Phosphate can be
safely taken by the weakest and most
delicate sufferer, and the results fol-
lowing its use are often simply aston
ishing.
BY strengthening the nerves. weak,
tired people regain energy and v1gor'
thinness and angularity give way 10
plumpncss and curves: sleep returns
10 the sieepless: confidence and
cheerfulness replace debility and
gloom; dull eyes become bright, and
pale, sunken cheeks regain the pink
glow of health.
CAUTION - Bltro Phosphate. the
use of which is inexpensive, also Won
derfully promotes the assimilation OF
food. so much so. that many people
report marked gains in weight In
few weeks. Those taking it who do not
desire to put on flesh, should use ex-
ira care in avoiding fat-producfns
food.
