English boys and French boys broke
down that barrier, and they have to-
day arraigned that criminal at the

1t Is safe to say that the verdict may
be left with the American people, with
the French people, with the English

that they will sentence the Boche to

of him and his children that idea that
might is right and that he can over
throw the civilization and the free
dom of the world to crafty his own
selfish purposes.
The crime Is greater than the Boche

KEPT PLEDGE
TO SEND DREAD
American Nation Maintained Al
lied Loaf Through Sell
Denial at Home Table.
AvERTED EUROPEAN DESPAIR.
With Military Demands Upon ocean
Shipping Relieved, World Is Able
to Return to Normal White
Wheat Bread.

Since the advent OF the latest wheat
crop the only limitation upon Ameri-
can exports TO Europe has been the
shortage of shipping. Between July !
and October 10 we shipped 63,9S0,30o
bushels. II this rate should continue
until the end OF the fiscal year we will
have furnished the Allies with more
than 237, 100000 bushels OF wheat and
-four In terms of wheat.
The result of increased production
and conservation efforts In the United
States has been that with the cessa-
ton OF hostilities we are able to re
turn 10 normal wheat diet. Supplies
that have accumulated in Australia,
Argentine and other hitherto inaeces-
sible markets may be tapped by ships
released from transport service, and
European demand for American wheat
probably will not exceed our normal
surplus. There Is wheat enough avail
able to have a white loaf at the com.
mon table.
But last year the tale was different
Only by the greatest possible saving
and sacrifice We're we able to keep
steady stream of wheat and flour mov-
Ing across the sea. We found our
selves at the beginning of the harvest
year with an unusually short crop.
Even the most optimistic statlsticians
figured that we had Il bare surplus of
20,0O0,000 bushels. And yet Europe
was facing the probability of bread
fnpfina-apI In Unurpno L. h.y 20 -
the most important article In the diet.
All of this surplus had left the
country early In the fall. By the first
OF the year we had managed to ship a
little more than 100000 bushels by
practicing the utmost economy at
home-by wheatless days, wheatless
meals, heavy substitution of other
cereals and by sacrifice at almost
every meal throughout the country.
In January the late Lord Rhondda,
then British Food Controller, cabled
that only IL We sent an additional 75,-
100000 bushels before July could he
take the responsibility Of assuring his
people that they would be fed.
The response of the American peo-
pie was $1,000, 900 bushels safely deliv-
ered overseas between January l and
July 1. Out of harvest which gave
us only 100000 bushels surplus we
actually shipped IA, 100000 bushels.
Thus did America fulfill her pledge
that the Allied bread rations could be
maintained, and already the American
people are demonstrating that with
an awakened war conscience, last
years figures Will be bettered.

and these thrifty. Industrious people

the matter Of food production.
And then came the Boche with his
dreams Of conquest and OF loot, and
for four years this valley Of the
Somme was battle-ground, with mil
lions Of men struggling backward and
forward across 1t. those on the one
side seeking the selfish purpose of
world domination and destruction and
those opposed seeking the preserva-

The American people. and especially
those of the rich agricultural states OF

own happy and prosperous communi-

the Somme section Of France before
the war. But 1t Is impossible TO pic

Ii is impossible to put into words the
terrible devastation that has been
wrought because of the ambitions and
lust of selfish people.
Every one of the two or three hui

CAPITAL RENTALS ARE HIGH
Sum Paid by President Washington
for Residence Would Not Be Con-
sIdered Extravagant Today.

Rentals of $500 to $1,000 year
are not remarkable. There are hun
dreds of apartments in this city which
rent for more, great deal more, and
1t Is likely that the new constructions
In the best apartment-houSe sections
contain no suites as cheap as $500.
When New York was the capital OF
the nation and Washington the chief
executive there were few who paid as
high as 81 900 year for homes. Rec
ords show that George Washington
paid $500 year for the use of the
McComb mansion on Broadway while
president of the United States. AS
first citizen of the country it was al
lowable that he should pay so high
rental, but only the president paid
anything like that amount. He got u
good deal more for his money than
the man who pays $500 for an apart
ment today.
The McComb house was one of the
finest homes In the capital. 1t was
built by the best architect In the
colonies and great care and no small
amount of money were spent In the
construction of the house, which was
large and had many splendid rooms
1t had beautifully laid out grounds
and from business standpoint was
ideal because 1t was only a short dis
lance from Federal hall at the north
east corner of Wall and Nassau
streets. now the subtreasury. Wash
ington extended himself when he paid
this rental, although one of the rich
est men In the colonies.

Can the American reader imagine
transforming the fertile fields and
prosperous villages and towns and
cities In states like New York, Ohio
Kentucky, Indiana. Illinois, Iowa, Kan.
sas, Oklahoma. Nebraska, Wisconsin
Texas, or any other of the rich agrl-
cultural states OF the Union into an
uninhabited desert?
That Is what the Boche did to the
Somme country of France. Before
the war this section of France was
looked upon as one of the most pro-
duetiye sections of the world. 1t was
covered with fertile farms. splendid
fruit orchards. thriving villages and
towns and prosperous little cities.
Among Its cities and towns were

with magnificent roadways, and each
roadway lined with wonderful trees

these roadways stood hundreds Of
farm villages. each village housing
from one hundred to five hundred hap

titled the soil of their fertile acres and

American farmer under such circum-

Weekly Health Talks
a WORD ABOUT THE klpNEys
BY DOCTOR WATSON.

People are easily frightened when
they think something is the matter with
their lungs or heart, and we'll they
may be; but few people understand
the dangers of diseased kidneys. These
organs have duty of vital Importance
to perform, and if they are diseased,
there is no telling how or where the
symptoms may appear. The kidneys
are filters, and when they are healthy
they remove the poisons from the blood
and purify it. When the kidneys are
diseased, the poisons are spread every
where, and one of these poisons is uric
acid. The uric acid is carried all
through the system and deposited in
various places, in the form of urate
salts in the feet, ankles, wrists and
back - often forming bags under the
eyes. Sometimes the resulting trouble
is called rheumatism, lumbago, sciatica
and backache. Finally, come stone
in the bladder, diabetes and Bright's
disease.
DIR. Piafee, OF Buffalo, II. T., in recent
years, discovered that q certain COM
bination of remedies would dissolve uric
acid urate salts) in the system. He
found this combination to be harmless,
so that he made it up in tablets,
Of double strength, and called them
Anuric Tablets. They dissolve uric
acid in the human system as hot coffee
dissolves sugar. If you have uric acid
troubles, don't delay in taking Anuric
Tablets, which can be secured in the
drug stores. You can write DR.. Pierce,
too, and he will tell you what to eat
and how to live so that more uric acid
will not form in your system. DR.. Pierce
will not charge for this advice.
