The first day you start to take this
reliable medicine, impure germs and
accumulation begin to separate in the
blood and are then expelled through the
eliminative organs.
In place of the impurities, the arteries
and veins gradually get fresh vitalized
blood and the action of this good blood
on the skin means that pimples, boils,
carbuncles, eczema, rash, acne and all
skin blemishes will disappear. Then you
must remember that when the blood is
right. the liver, stomach, bowels and
kidneys become healthy, active and
vigorous and you will have no more
trouble with indigestion, backache, head
ache.

The Use Of FIavorings Deter.
mines Difference In Brands

The Encyclopedia Britannica says
.about the manufacture OF smoking to-
bacco: IS. on the Continent and in
America, certain sauces are employed
:. the use of the sauces is to improve
the favour and burning qualities OF the
leaves" Which indicates that smokers
enjoyment depends as much upon the
flavoring used as upon the tobacco.
Your nose is a sure guide in the mat
ter of favorings. Try this simple test
with several tobacco brands: pour some
tobacco into your palm. rub briskly,
and smell. You will notice a distinct
difference in the fragrance OF every
brand. The tobacco that smells best to
you will smoke best in your pipe, you
can rest assured.

bolshevism on all peoples. Dispatches
from Moscow say the soviet govern
ment has appointed a Swiss named
Moor to be international commissar"
with unlimited financial and political
powers, with view to promoting
worldwide communist revolution. In
the Archangei region the bolshevists
continue their attacks on the allied
| forces and, though suffering severe
losses, have compelled them to move
northward from Vistavka. InfOrma-
ton from the part of Russia controlled
by the bolsheviki is that though their
army is increasing and is well drilled
and well fed, the rest of the people
are starving to death. Production of
all kinds has ceased and transpOrta-
tion is so utterly demoralized that what
grain they have cannot be distributed.
In a word, the soviet government has
demonstrated its absolute incapacity
| and lack of administrative ability, eX-
| cept in the matter of raising a con-
script army. In this Trotzky is large
ly following the old system of the en-
pire.

The internal condition of Germany
is described as almost hopeless. There
has been continuous fighting In Berlin
and other centers, and while the Spar
tacans have generally got the worst
of 1t. they are persistent and very des-
perate In the suburbs of the capital
the battles were especially bloody,
Lichtenberg seeing the most sanguin-
AIRY encounters. The government
troops used artillery and mine throw
ers there and after some days sue
ceeded in ousting the Spartacans.
Many prisoners were taken and were
summarily executed. The reds devot-
ed q great deal of their attention to
plundering the shops. Politically, the
majority socialists are not meeting
with great success or inspiring much
enthusiasm In the people. Hugo Haase
and the minority socialists are grow
ing stronger, and some observers say
the only salvation from the commun-
ism or chaos they would bring about
is in the new democratic party which
is getting into action. The fact that
the chief of this party is Count Won
Bernstorff will not give it much stand
Ing with the allies. 1t is to be noted,
too, that Doctor Albert, former leader
of plots and propaganda in the United
States, has been given cabinet posi-
ton under Scheidemann. One can al
most discern, already, the finish of the
so-called German revolution against
autoeracy Even now, 1t Is reported.

boundaries commission, but deter
mined by the council itself, because of
their vast Importance and difficulties.
These include the frontier disputes
between Italy and JugO- SlOvakia.
The commission on waterways,
ports and railways recommended that
the Rhine and the Kiel canal be opened
to free navigation by all nations, the
former to be controlled by an interna-
tional commission and the latter to
remain under German ownership and
operation.
Poland probably will be granted the
desired outlet to the Baltic sea, and
1t is likely she will be given Danzig
and the entire Vistula valley. This
would cut off east Prussia and 1t is
believed that state will be set up as
a separate republic in accordance
with the wishes of a large part of its
population. The violent opposition
which these measures may arouse in
Germany probably will render adj
visable the sending to Poland of Cen

The war of words and ideas over the
league of nations continues undated.
Former President Taft and others of
the plans supporters admit the pres
ent draft should be amended, and have
suggested desirable changes. Senator
Borah and the rest of the attackers do
not seem to approve the league at all.
The pope has rather weakly reverted
to the old idea of an agreement for in
ternational arbitration with economic
boycott of the nation refusing to sub
nit to the award of the arbitrators.
He also would admit to the league ev-
cry nation. In this he is supported by
Mr. Bryan, who thinks TO require
twe-thirds vote to admit new men,
Der suggests the social club, where q
few black balls may keep out an I'M
congenial applicant.
Opponents of the league plan In
America have formed national or
ganization of which Col. Henry Wat
George Wharton Pepper of Philadel-
phia is the managing head and d.
rector. Its purpose is to create the
machinery for conducting an active
campaign against the proposed league
throughout the nation. 1t will under
take to reach every voter by distribute
ing literature attacking the league
plan. Among the members are many
senators and prominent publicists.
All neutral nations are to have some
thing to say concerning the league be-
fore action is taken. They have been
invited by the conference authorities
to attend private and unofficial con-
ference in Paris March 30, to express
their views on the constitution as
drafted 1t is believed now that Ge-
neva may be made the permanent seat

Ireland Is not the only country that
Is seeking to take advantage of the
"self-determination" principle enunci-
ated by President Wilson and accepted
by the belligerent nations. Porto Rico
strongly urges that it be made o state

ippines are urging that they be permit
ted to paddle their own canoe. Presi-
dent Wilson's record leads to the be-
lief that he will not offer any serious
opposition to the desires of the Fill
pinos. Korea, also, has declared its
independence from Japan. and the dec
laration, which says 1t represents the
voice of 2O,OO0.0O0 people, asserts they
will fight to the last drop of blood In
the great cause of liberty. The leader
of the Koreans Is said to have come to
the United States to conduct press
campaign with the immediate object of
obtaining hearing at the Paris peace
conference.
Two pieces of news concerning Mex
leo aroused interest last week. One
was that President Carranza was in
sisting on the payment of the contis-
catory "royalty tax" on oil produced
by foreign operators and that the en-
tire controversy was likely to reach
n critical stage again. The other was
the information that the /. w. w. had
established revolutionary confedera-
ton in Mexico for the purpose OF over
throwing the clergy, capitalists and
bourgeoisie, and that the chief of the
Carranza cabinet had signed an agree
ment with them to have enacted the
necessary syndicalist legislation. Mem
beers of the |. w. w. are to be designat-
ed as unmobilized soldiers for any duty
in the way of establishing the desired
results.

That the Germans must have food
quickly If the flood of bolshevik and
Spartacan anarchy is to.be stayed is
the fiat statement of many who should
know, including Secretary Lansing. In
this policy there is no pity for the
Huns; IL is merely matter of self
protection for the rest of Europe If
not for the world. Investigators for
the allies do not agree with the state
ments that there is plenty of food in
most of Germany, and the great ma
jority of authorities are convinced
that the anarchistic inc7 ement In cen
trail Europe is feeding on hunger and
can be checked by provisions. The
Ebert government virtually threatened
to lie down and let the Spartacans
have their own way If the allies did
not consent to feed Germany. Whether
or not the threat was a bluff, II has
worked. With this was involved the
matter of the surrender of German
merchant shipping, and the Huns in
duced the allies to agree to revictual
Germany until the next harvest If the
ships were given up. Letting de-
feated nation dictate thus to its con-
querors was said by some to be a seri-
Gus blunder, but its worst effect prob
ably will be to encourage the Germans
TO be stubborn on other questions
where the allies cannot afford to yield.
Three hundred thousand tons of Ger
man shipping now in German ports
has been allocated to the United
States. In addition about 100000 tons
of German shipping informed in Chill
can waters was allocated to America
but this may not be accepted If the
shipping board finds the necessary re-
pairs would not be justified If the
vessels are to be used by us for
short period

is occasionally used, though not en-

ridden trench.
This years convention. in a sense,
will be memorable inasmuch as the
war has revolutionized the craft OF
hoboing and many novel and startling
suggestions as to how to live and travel
without work will be presented by
scores of delegates, hailing from every
section of the country. Jungle" phil

that he married his wife in California

within less than year after he had

the marriage, ruled that Cannon can
