headed by men whose sympathies
were with Speaker Cannon and his
little coterie Of reactionaries.
The situation in the senate is
even worse than it is in the house.
Senator Penrose has practically an
nounced that he will have the chair
manship of the finance committee or
kick up -ucb a rumpus that no other
republican win get anything In
other words, he thinks that his
crowd is in, and he wants his share
of what is coming to it. He laughs
at the Pmchots and smaller op-
ponents who went Off with the Bull
Moose in 1912
This is a fair statement OF the
case in congress, The democrats 80
out and the republicans go in. The
progressive leaders will be eliminat-
cd and the smae old crowd that
was in the republican temple before
Uncle Joe Cannon was unhorsed will

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2l.-Gradu
ally the republicans of the Old
Guard type in congress are conyinc-
ing the progressive" senators and
house members that charmanshlps
of committees and similar honors
that go with the majorities are bet
ter than the principles they stood
for back home. That brings about
a remarkable situation in Washing
ton 1t is not question of stand
patter or Old Guard now, but Of
what can be done to give Senators
Penrose and Uncle Joe Cannon ana
their sprightly cohorts more power
A republican caucus has agreed
to make certain changes in the rules
of the senate to satisfy Senator
George w. Norris, who led the fight
against the Old Guard in the house
ten years ago. Senators Penrose,
Lodge and Smoot are camouflage
artists OF the first rank. They can
make an ambush look like a health
resort to ambitious progressives.
They have their full crew at work
now The senate rules are to be
"Iiberalized." They are to be en-
forced by the Penrose-Lodge- -Smoot
group.
To onlookers in Washington the
striking fact of the contests between
republican leaders in congress for
the leadership is that it is not
question as to whether or not the
Old Guard or progressives will dom
mate. 1t is conceded that the Old
Guard shall boss the house and the
senate.
The cunning leaders of the Old
Guard claim the credit for the vic
tory at the polls in November, and
are going to take the fruits of it.
They concede nothing to the pro-

All the warning of the Pinchots and
other followers Of Col. Theodore
Roosevelt, the original Bull Moose,
cannot prevent the gobbling up Of

JUCO-SLAVS WON
GLORY WITH HUNS
FIGHTING ITALIANS

ROME, Feb. 22.-The valor Of the
Slav troops as well as their firm
resolve to fight bitterly against the
allies is shown by the removal of
regiments chiefly composed of Slavs
from the favored places as was
proved by Deputy Verstosek, who
lamented in the Austrian parliament
that the heaviest losses had been
sustained by Jugo-Slavs. The same
thing was shown besides by the spe-
cial mentions in the bulletins made
of the Jugo-Slavs in operations
against Italians. During the often
sives Of 1918, the 9Th, sd, 10th,
AID, Sd, 2Sth, 36eh, 92d, Goth, 55th,
50th, 4Sth, 58th, 10th and 57th di-
visions were composed chiefly of
Bosnian and Herzegovinian regi-
ments. The S6th and Goth lost the
greater part of their effectives.
The fighting qualities of these
troops were extolled by the Budapest
Hirlap of July 8, and by Minister
Sturmay in an address. The Jugo-
Slags also in Albania and Macedo-
MIA fought bitterly according to the
Neue Freie Presse Of August 3, and
the Sloenski Narvd Of June s.
Moreover in the battle of Vittorio
Veneto the most important places
were given to divisions having a
large Slav percentage. Between the
Brenta and the Piave the AID, 5Oth,
2Sth, 55th and 60th divisions resisted
for eight days of the stiffest fight
ing. On the Piave also the 10th and
5Sth divisions put up a tenacious de-
fense.
Austrian bulletins extolled the he
roic conduct of the 5th Bosno Her
zegovinian regiment and the 9th,
2Sth, 42d and 9TH Croat regiments.
The Obzor asserts that the Croatian
people had shed their blood as gen
erously to down Italy in 1918 as
they had in 1S48, 1859 and 1886.
Thus the Colonel assured the Basler
Nachrichten of June IS that the Slav
masses had fought excellently. His
assurance was confirmed authorita-
lively by General Boreovitch him
self when in an open letter, he de-
MED that his troops had deserted the
front, asserting that on the contrary
they had resisted marvellously
through the whole action.

CUTS SALE OF SUDS TO B0CHE;
PEDDLES HOT CHOC TO YANKEES

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY
OF OCCUPATION, ANDERNASH,
Germany, Feb. 5.(-By Mail )-How
German cafe proprietor was forced
to abandon the sale of beer to the
fraus and herrs of the village, so
that he could serve hot chocolate to
teh American soldiers as they
marched by on their way into Ger
many, is one of the stories of the
advance Of the 32nd division.
1t happened at Andernach. c. p
Kelpman, Y. M. c. A. secretary at
tached to the division, could find no
convenient place in the village from
which to serve hot chocolates to
the men as they tramped by, worn
out from their long march. Then he
came upon safe admirably situated
by the roadside. But the herr bar
tender and proprietor at first re-
fused OF exchange the joys of draw
ing deep-foamed beer for the milder
thrill of pouring hot chocolate for
the men in khaki.
"Nein, nein!" he demonstrated, dis
dainfully 1T is beer l serve. Heisze
chokolade-that is drink for old
women!'

Y. M. c. A. man told him. "The
American soldiers want hot choco-
late And the American soldiers
have got to have what they want
Herr bartender said no more. ST.
lently he poured the chocolate made
by the Y. NJ c. A. man and with
resignation he accepted the small
fee that he was permitted to charge
But there was a melancholy and
meditative look in his eyes. 1t
seemed to occur to him for the first
time that when man could be torn
from beer-pouring thus, it must be
that Germany had been beaten in
the war!'

DAILY HEALTH TALKS
The Troubles Women Have
BY L. MAC LEAN, M. D.

Probably no man in America was ever
better qualified to successfully treat the
diseases poculiar to women than DIR.
Pierce, OF Buffalo, N. Y. The cases that
come to HIM run into many thousands,
giving him an experience that rarely
comes to any one man. DR.. Pierce found
that in nearly every case there were certain
vegetable growths which rarely failed to
give prompt relief in those feminine dis
orders from which so many women suffer.
He combined these roots and herbs into q
temperance medicine that he called DIR.
Pierces Favorite Prescription, for that is
precisely what it was. This medicine is
sold in both liquid and tablet form by drug
gists everywhere. Eavorite Prescription
is distinct remedy for women and acts
directly upon the organs that characterize
the sex. 1t is not necessary to take a long
course Of treatment with this standard
medicine. A weakly, siclSly, backachy,
headachy, nervous, despondent woman,
with regular or irregular pans-with feni-
nine disorders that come in youth or
middle age-is pretty sure to find in Dr.
Pierce's Favorite Prescription the exact
remedy that her condition calls for, and
to find it after very few doses are taken.
Why women should allow themselves to
stay sick when very little money spent
for this remedy will probably make them
well, is something no one can explain.
Al women who suffer from feminine dis
orders are invited to write the Faculty of
the Invalds Hotel, Buffalo, N. Y, for free
confidential consultation and advice, no
charge being made for this high profession
nj service. This viii enable every woman
to benefit by tie advice Of the distinguish
cd corps Of physicians which DIR. Pierce
has gathered about him in his celebrated
Buffalo institution.
When constipation is present with
feminine disorders, DIR. Pierce's Pleasant
Pellets should be taken along with Favorite
Prescription. Try them now!
