CONQUEST BY RAILROAD
AND RANK"

China will be next, in the opinion
OF 7. w. Gerlach, who has just pub
lished a book entitled, Foreign FL
nancial Control in China Mr.. Over
ZACH is not a propagandist; he does
not take side-he is simply a scien-
tifc observer who has made a study
Of particular problem.
The process by which China has
been gobbled piecemeal is thus de-
scribed-"T Though at first sight po-
litical, and fought by diplomacy, the
struggle for foreign control in China
was not less one of international fl
nancial interests, contending for the
exploitation of new opportunities for
investment. Foreign capital was at
tracted by the great profits to be
gained from the impending industrial
revolution of China. In order to eli
inmate financial competition of other
nations or to counteract political
moves on the part of other govern
ments. if such were destined to be
harmful to its own expansion, foreign
finance often solicited, and freely re-
ceived, diplomatic protection The
period was one Of Conquest by rail
,.ood o,d bapl-' -
What of the future? Mr.. Overlach
answers" In short, the tremendous
pressure of modern Imperialism
coupled with modern capitalist enter
prise was, in China as elsewhere on
earth. a constant menace to peace
and a continued application of i'm
perialistic policies to exclusively ma
tional ends might again make for
war, as soon as the present conflict
is over"
That is the answer of capitalist
society. When the present struggle
is over, the next one will begin.
Meanwhile, financial and commercial
interests are busy preparing for
conquest by railroad and bank"

THOU SHALT NOT KILL

War has slain her thousands; in
dustry her tens of thousands. Wars
are spectacular, but they occur only
occasionally. Year after year, in
peace times and in war times alike
the machinery of industry mains and
kills.
New York State reports that in
the four years ending June 30, 1918,
there were 1,099,053 industrial acci-
dents Most of these accidents were
"injury cases." but 5,252 of them
were death cases. During these
four "war years the industries of
New York State alone killed more
New York citizens than did the Ger
mans at the front; an injured more
three times over-than the total
casualties in the American EXpedi-
tionary Forces.
Accidents on steam railroads in
the United States for the year end
ing December 81, 1917, have just
been published by the United States
Department of Labor. In that one
year, 10,087 persons were killed on
the railroads, and 1914, 4,805 were in
jured. For one industry over 20O,-
900 casualties in one year! These
ghastly figures are not exceptional.
They are duplicated on the American
railroads, year after year.
Year after year we perpetuate this
slaughter. Year after year we crush
the bodies of men and women in the
prime of their lives. Year after year,
we deprive human beings of health,
strength and physical fitness through
the destructive machinery of the in
dustrial world. We tear, MAIN, dis
figure, kill-for what purpose To
what end?
That speed may be little greater;
that goods may be a little cheaper;
that profits may be a little larger!
Folly! Brutal criminal folly! Against
that increased speed; against those
lowered prices; against the fatter
profits sounds the eternal challenge
"Thou Shalt Not kip!
Newark leader. ([Newark, Ohio]) 1917-1946, 1919-07-03

final result of the proposition. Human
nature has not changed since the
days of Cain and Abel. The murder
of Abel was caused by hatred, envy
and jealousy, and the same spirit has
caused all the bloodshed from that
day to the present. 1t was this
spirit of selfishness and jealousy that
brought about the war between
England and the United States. The
same desire to rule and accumulate
is still the uppermost object in the
minds of the English people today.
The result of the League of Nations
will not depend upon the construction
of the constitution so much as upon
who or what sort of spirit will
dominate it.

Eat More Cheese.

Store" cheese more properly
known as American Cheddar - il
more nourisbing pound for pound,
than any meat and therefore should
have prominent place in the diet as
a meat substitute. says statement
issued today by the United States De-
partment of Agriculture
Few people in this country eat
cheese in sufficient quantities for it
really to form an important part Of
the daily fare" says the statement.
Indeed, ii is used more often simply
as an appetizer or as seasoning for
some other food. Nearly every one
rellshes good American Cheddar or
store cheese, but there is an impress.
sion that it is indigestible and consti-
pating Extensive digestion expert
ments carried oD by the Department
OF Agriculture have demonstrated
that more than 81 per cent of the
protein Of cheese is digested and 80
per cent OF its energy is available.
Even when eaten in large quantities
ana Tor long periods. no case OF indi-
gestlon. constipation, or other dis
turbance was observed in those who
ate 1t. One man who ate cheese as
the chief source of both protein and
energy, eating an average of 9.27
ounces daily, with bread and fruit. for
more than TWO years, did a fair
amount Of muscular work and kept in
good health.
American Cheddar cheese is a very
satifactory substitute for meat. 1t
can be kept in storage for long time,
and contains much food value in
small volume.
"A pound Of cheese supplies more
than twice as much energy as a pound
OF fowl or round steak and almost
Twice as much protein as the same
amount of fowl or ham. Cheese, there
fore, is usually cheaper food than
the meats.
Cheese can be combined in many
paiatable dishes, When grated it may
be used in soups or with many veget-
ables. Other foods in which cheese is
used are: Macaroni and cheese, Welsh
rabbit, tomato rabbit, baked rice and
cheese, baked crackers and cheese,
and cheese mush.

NeedIework Notes.

Instead of embroidery in floss on
sport hats, baby ribbon in bright CO.
Tors is worked in designs looking as
tho it were darned thru the silk
crown.
In making shoe and slipper bags
for the friend who is about to travel
be sure to make each pair of differ
ent material, which saves unnecessa.
ny opening. Ii is more convenient to
make a separate bag or envelope for
each shoe and sew strong loops of
tape at the ends so that they may be
hung up in a closet. 1t is well to make
the bags big enough to hold the shoes
with their trees inside, for most peo-
pie who wish to prolong the lives of
their shoes keep the trees i'm always
when they are not in wear.
The embroidered medallion is a
splendid innovation for the woman
who can afford but one hat, and who
wishes TO wear that hat with more
than one costume. II is economy for
such person to purchase an all-black
hat and then on this to use medallions
embroidered i'm colors to harmonize
with the frock or suit with which the
hat is to be worn.

Health Notes.

One often finds himself without a
toothbrush when spending the day or
the night Unexpectedly away from
home. In such an emergency rinse
of soda water will prove effective in
cleansing the mouth and teeth. Bo-
rax water is also an excellent substi-
tute.
Light should fall over your left
shoulder when you are reading, writ
ing or sewing. If out in the sun when
there is snow on the ground, il is
best to wear slightly smoked glasses
to soften the glare. They will be very
restful to the eyes, will, not attract
unpleasant attention in the country,
and will prevent chronic wrinkles.
When the eyes are verv tired, battle
them with hot water and boracic
acid.
The habit of raising the brows con-
tinually will tend to produce wrinkles
more quickly than the passing years.
Whenever you are home alone, put
long, narrow strips of court plaster
just above the center of the eyebrows,
halfway to the hairline. Every time
you raise your brows this will be a
silent reminder, and soon you will
learn to know when you use those
muscles that you now use unconsci-
ously. Wear the plasters whenever
you can until broken of the habit

MAN STEAL AND SELLS
THREE HUNDRED LAMBS
Is Arrested at Douglass for Theft and
Lodged in Jail at Casper, Wyo.

Casper, Wyo.-One Of the most SEN
rional thefts of livestock ever per-
petl ted in this country, and one
that takes rank with some of the most
lurid deeds of the "Old West" was
recorded when Tom Stevens, aged 2S.
an employee of one of the local re-
finer:es for the past three years, was
captured in Douglas as he was get
ting off of the train to cash draft
for 81 800 which he had received from
the sale of 300 lambs belonging to the
Coal Creek Sheep Company OF this
county.
stevens, in the custody of deputy
sheriff of Converse County, was
brought to Casper and lodged in the
county Jail.
Stc,cn committed one of the bold
G. acts of robbery which has come to
the attention of local authorities in
years.
According to the story told to the
officers, Stevens went to the camp of
tn; Coal Creek Company and told the
herder in charge or the nock That ne
had been discharge, and that he,
Stevens, was to have the band in
charge.
After the herder left Stevens drove
300 head of the sheep to Casper and
loaded them under the name of p. c.
Nicolaysen, president of the Coal
Creek Sheep Company, and accom-
panied the shipment to Denver, where
he received a draft for $1,000 after
the shipment had been sold.
Stevens then returned TO Casper
an remained here for day before
going to Douglas, where it was pre-
sumed he intended to cash the draft.
The deal was tipped off to Sheriff
Patton in tim to notify the Converse
authorities to nab Stevens just as he
$ getting off the train.

HEAVY MEAT EATERS
HAVE SLOW KIDNEYS
Eat less meat if you feel Backachy or
have bladder trouble-Take
glass Of Salts. -

No man or woman who eats meat rep1i-
larry can make a mistake by flushing the
kidneys occasionally, says a well known
authority. Meat forms uric acid which
excites the kidneys, they become over
worked from the strain, get sluggish and
fail to filter the waste and poisons from
the blood, then we get sick. Nearly all
rheumatism, headaches, liver trouble.
nervousness, dizziness, sleeplessness and
urinary disorders come from sluggish
kidneys.
The moment you feel dull ache in the
kidneys or your back hurts or if the
urine is cloudy, offensive, full of sedi-
ment, irregular of passage or attended by
a sensation of scalding, stop eating meat
and get about four ounces of Jad
Salts from any pharmacy; take q
tablespoonful in a glass of water before
breakfast and in few days your kidneys
will act fine. This famous salts is made
from the acid of grapes and lemon juice,
combined with lithia, and has been used
for generations to flush and stimulate
the kidneys, also to neutralize the acids
in urine so it no longer causes irritation,
thus ending bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and caunot
injure; makes a delightful effervescent
Whitewater drink which everyone
should take now and then to keep the
kidneys clean and active and the blood
pure, thereby avoiding serious kidney
complications.

CARP HOUND RAIDS POND,
SAVING WHEAT DUCK BAIT
Animal Catches and Eats Fish Which
Were Annoying Hunters.

Portland, Ore DR.. Alan WEIGH
Smith and his fellow owners of duck
pond on Sauvies Island have present
&c 10 the world new species of ami
NAL, to wit, the carp" hound. This
dog eats fish and insists on taking
them alive out of the water.
When DR.. Smith and his friends
visited their pond recently they found
most of the wheat they had carefully
planted as duck bait was gone. The
evident size of the mouthful quantities
in which it hau been taken away, ad-
ded to the scarcity of ducks, led the
huntsman to suspect that the objects
of their charity had been robbed.
Carp" said sage member of the
party. AS If to prove his hypothesis
big fish just then swung into the
wheat field and went away with his
full.
Another of the party had a dog,
and when its master took it to one
eide and confded to it the tricks the
fish had been playing the dog barked
sympathy.
The next carp that started for the
heat met an untimely death. The
carp hound let out yell which fright
ened the fish out of its wits, then,
while the carp was still dazed. sank
his teeth firmly in the enemy's back
and took it out of its native element.
The dog continued his raids until the
pond was nearly vacant, so far as
carp were concerned.
A. the end of week the hunters
found their wheat practically intact.
