R~ds CInim Series Of vfctorie. On
south Russisp Front.

LONDON. Thursday. capture Of
fekaterinoslav, on the southern Russian
front, and Novomoskovsk. fifteen miles
northeast of Yekaterinosiav, is announced
in Bolshevik official statement iss,sd
today.
The Reds are also fighting fierceIv for
possession OF Tcherkassy. on the Dnieper
River, some ninety-five miles southeast OF
Kiev. -
The Bolshevikl have occupied Mariinsk
east OF Tomsk. on the Siberian front. the
statement adds.
Another Bolshivik communication issued
late today says
The enemy was expelled from the town
OF Chcrkassy. We advanced TO a Iina ten
versts southwest of Yekaterinoslav In the
direction OF Tagan Rog we occupied Tlo-
vayskoye and series OF villages TO the
east.
1000 Prisoners Taken.
"On the Trinka and Meus rivers our cav
airy captured 2ooo prisoners. three armored
trains and other booty. We have reached
n line on the kamenka River forty vcrsts
southwest OF Lueansk."
The position OF General Denikine tho
anti-Bolshevik leader In South Russia
is becoming more critical. Reports re-
ceived by the War Office show that HIS
rereat il continuing along virtually the
whole of his six hundred mile front, and
that the Bolshevist drive against his cen
tre with the purpose OF cutting his army
in two. has brought about a critical stu
alton.
The Bolshevik advance guards have
reached the Donetz coal basin and are
less than one hundred miles from the
coast This basin represents the richest
mineral section OF Russia. and its acquisI-
onby the Reds would be of inestimable
value TO them.
Further east the Reds are imperillinr

A Real American.

No ore disputes the fact. which
has worn brighter with the years
that the birth of Abraham Lincoln
February IL, 1909, was a rery fortu-
nate occurrence, or that the condi-
tions under which he was born and
reared contributed to his marvellous
development into the revered and
beloved type of real American that
has no parallel among our great
americans.
At this time it is peculiarly re-
freshing and inspiring to recall the
man and his day. His opportunities
Tor what is termed education were a
half dozen books, devoted step
mother and a pine knot to read by in
the evening after day u hard toll.
His social status was Of the lowliest
in day when the naughty Owners of
slaves set social customs and dictat-
I'd policies at the national capital.
There probably isn't in this country
today a red radical agonizing for the
destruction Of present conditions,
who Is forced to endure what Abra-
nam Lincoln endured-and con-
queTed. IAncoln's contact with the
soil deveeoped In him what may he

beea otherwise he might have made
Of the Emancipation Proclamation a
boomerang instead of a boon.
Out Of the conditions from which
he came II is not surprising that be
brought no ayowed creed, rather re-
ligion Like unto that possessed by oui
American boys who fought the good
nxft IN france. 1t is surprising. per-
maps, that from all his experience he
seems to have derived no bitterness
that he turned from failure to WORK
with high courage and sweet ant
sane spirit. More wonderful yet is il
that this modest, unassuming, adapt.
able man should have been able t.
stand SO firmly by his convictions
Today we are apprehensive in the
face Of perplexing problems. Thu

BRIDGEPORT WOMAN
HAD DIZZY SPELLS

When the stomach lacks tone.
causing food to be retained so long
that gas is formed and headaches
and dizzy spells follow, there is no
quicker way to strengthen the stom-
ach than to build up the blood.
An example Of the effectiveness of
this kind of treatment is Mrs. Will
liam Walker, Of Bridgeport, Conn.
When seen at her home No. 146 Ce-
dar street, recently, she said:
Il shudder today when I recall the
pain endured before finding the
right remedy. There we're months
when l hardly ate enough to keep me
alive for it was only by going without
meals that was able to save my
self from stomach pains. After a
meal I had attacks of indigestion. 1
could not sleep we'll and each day I
became a little weaker. ached all
over my body and had spells Of diz-
illness and headaches. My trouble
a nervous breakdown.
II had read a great deal about Dr..
Williams Pink Pills but didn't be-
lieve it was possible that a tonic
could help me. Finally I procured a
box, resolved to give them a fair
trial. There was change for the
better in a short time after 1 began
taking the pills and gradually my
strength came back. My stomach is
SO much better now that can eat
hearty meal without distress. l now
feel practically as well as at any
time during my life. sleep well and
seldom have a headache. The dizzy
spells have disappeared.
my advice to sufferers from stom-
ache trouble is to try DR.. Williams
Pink Pills. They will be surprised
how quickly an enriched and increas-
ed blood supply will correct stomach
difficulties"

WILL WILSON PLAY THE

Since When Has He Thought It a
Crime TO Appeal to Foreign Peoples
Over Their Rulers?

What the situation seems to need is
some one who can make Woodrow
Wilson safe for democracy"
The brief but thrilling history of
what we mean. The League was
brought forth in the peace propagan-
da which President Wilson so effec-
lively waged against German militia
rism. Then it was "forcibly fed" to
protesting skeptical, cynical Europe
an diplomacy. When the President
went to Paris he seemed to be the
protagonist Of idealism. preaching a
perfect peace to a wicked and per-
verse generation. He was the liberator
of the suffering suppressed and large
~ innocent masses of mankind; and
the specific act of liberation he was
about to perform was to free them
henceforth from the terrifying fear
of war.
Clemenceau was the wicked I'M
Gle" He sneered openly. What he
wanted was a. firm alliance Of the
victorious Allies which would stern
ly cage the blond beast" put him on
enervating economic rations and set
an international guard to watch him.
He had no confidence in the academ-
ic dreams Of 1.-The Professor" from
Princeton.
The seasoned British diplomats had
little faith in the new vision, but they
had- in Cecil and SHUTS canny men
who tried to make the League work
able A part Of the trouble that SUBJ
sequently developed in this country
may have been due to the fact that
they possibly succeeded in making it
too workable" But it will be re-
membered that Lloyd George and the
real masters of British policy stayed
away from the chamber Of accouche-
ment until President Wilson made q
dramatic pilgrimage to the British
Isles and delivered addresses sound
ing very like appeals to the British
people over the heads Of their Min
listers. OF course, 1t. couldn't have
been that: for the President is repre-
scented as thinking it a very shock
ing thing to appeal to a people over
the heads Of their executive.
! The Italian Government also haG
certain alleged '1mperialistic" plans
that seemed to handle the free and un-
restrained establishment of the
League. But the President made a
progress through Italy. arousing the
Italian people to wild enthusiasm
Some Italian journals got the wrong
idea that he was appealing to the
Italian people over the heads Of their
government. But the President
wouldn't do: that. The indignant and
aggrieved attitude he Is pictured as
holding toward Lord Grey:s letter,
written in London as a private in
dividual" to a London. paper, pre-
cludes any such possibility.
T But the point is that President
Wilson forced the League on Europe.
