Thousands Suffering From
 Pellagra

They suffer torture from this disease Pellagra. Then they die. And in the south this year thousands will meet un- timely deaths-deaths which might have been prevented.
 For Pelaara sufferers get relief. Thousands have been saved and many more thous ands will be brought back to normal health.
 A big-hearted Alabama Pellagra special ist named Baughn studied Pellagra for many years. and as a result of his invest igations he developed Pellagra Treat ment which has been signally successful, It is a treatment which relieves the torture of open sores in the mouth and throat. It reduces the swelling in the hands, arms and feet. It does away with constipation and diarrhoea. And. best of all, it brings back normal health. No matter how severe your Pellagra may be, bear in mind the fact that others who have had Pellagra suffered more severe cases than yours. and that they are alive today--simply because they took advan- tage of this remarkable treatment. You can learn all about this treatment | from . FREE booklet which the American Compromising Company will send to you It tells how thousands have had normal health restored and will show how you. too can regain your health.

 These men welcomed the confer ence as Japans golden moment. They were convinced that neither the United States nor Great Britain would fail to give due consideration to Japan's position and world wants, that they would recognize Japan's place as the leading oriental power and not forget that Japans very presence in the Far East entitled her to certain rights, as she already pos sesses advantages, on account or nearness and her close historical and racial associations with the rest of sia. They believed that Japan woud better her lot, not make it worse.
 Newspapers Comment
 Many newspapers drew attention to the quick calling of the Far East ern conference after the deliberations of the British Imperial Council and were inclined to deduce that Ameri- can opposition was the cause of the failure to reach a definite decision on the renewal of the English al- liance. They rejoiced at the calling of the armament conference, but they were plainly disturbed about the general political congress.

EERNENII IN JAPAN
 OVER HARD|NG'S INCONVENIENCE CALL
Not Since Russo-Japanese War Has Japan S Been
 Stirred to Present..
 Excitement
By Associated Pres,

rokio, September 17-Not since the Russo Japanese war has any thtng created such -aaferment in Japan sqs President Harding's proposal to call conference of the interested powers to discuss Far Eastern prob 1ems In connection with the general icueFtion of armament limitation. lJapan had been looking forward ts sageneral discussion of political prob < llsfns with the United States and pos ssibly, also. with Great Britain but. scpniing Immediately after the failure Sof British statesmen to agroe on the irenewal of the Anglo Japanese al- sliance, the proposal to deliberate On ,Far- Eastern policies and problems by all powers having an interest in $thes Far East caused consternation.
 The prevailing opinion was plainly ;of such a world congress. It was, iaccordng to the general view, cal. oulated to decide great issues virtaliy concerning the future of Japan and these Issues dealt with Asia which Japan tends to regard as being "her own preserves.'i There was appre- hension in some quarters of resulting sW Some Difficulties
 ' There was dismay at the apparent difficulties found in extending the 5nilitary pact with England which has ever been considered the pivot ot Nippon's foreign diplomacy ana which gave to Japan internationG, Weight, because it meant a working alliance with a great western em- pire. It was, in the prevailing view, the ever present evidence that Japan was now of the great powers of tle world and was the effective bridge between the leading power of the Orient and a mighty white power of Europe.
 Many men of Nippon therefore foresaw a danger of the Anglo-Sax on combination acting to strangle Japan's political development in Asia --afettering of future Japanese activ- ity on the oriental side of the Paci- fife ocean. Japan therefore acceptedl gladly the armament discussion be- cause the maintenance and increase of her navy and army are a crush ing burden which financially she knows she cannot stand But she asked the United States to define what political questions were to bel submitted to the Far Eastern con ference.
 Meantime, she made tentative plans to draw up list of matters she deemed vital for deliberation inl connection with her own interests and in connection with the general aim of the conference.
 Looking Ahead
 Japanese of prominence. however, rejecting the fears of many bureau crats. foresaw in the political con ference not-to be-lost opportunity of pushing forward the cause oel Japan as a world power-of demand ing assured sources for food and raw material so vital for their country, Acf finding an outlet for their tncreas ing population and markets for their

 Many of the medals and cups won and conferred upon Rickenbacher during his career are packed care- fully away in the little frame cottage here, but there are four things Mrs. Elizabeth Rickenbacher, his mother, values more than anything else. They are:
 A piece of marble chiseled In the shape of a book, and bearing the in- seription, Holy Bible"
 small wooden chest.
 A silver cup, embossed with gold, the championship trophy won by Rickenbacher in a bitter contest at Sioux City, la, in July, 1914, when he drove Dusenburg car to victory in a 300-mile race on a gumbo Girt track.
 A citation from the French gov ernment, accompanying the award of the croix de guerre.
 Rickenbacher chiseled the marble book in his monument making ap- prentice days. The wooden chest is a memento of short time spent in the shops of railroad here.
 His mother values them as sym bolic of the steps in her sons life.

| Columbus, O., September T.-Six- l teen years ago in small tom bstone work here a gangling Youth of 15 wrestled with the mallet and chisel, J fearing the art of monument mak- ing, physically on the job mentally | behind the steering wheel of a racing automobile.
 That was the first job Capt. Ed ward V. Rickenbacher, American ace | of aces In the World war, ever held in his life. He was getting s6 a week. Later he7gladly accepted a | job in a garage. It paid s4 a week. Rickenbacher was born in a little I frame cottage close to the Columbus Driving park. From the days when he was big enough to peer through the fence, the track fascinated kim. When automobile racing started, the Driving park was his Mecca. His crowning ambition was to drive a racing automobile. He reached lis At that time he was sent to Texas by a local automobile concern, in whose factory he had been working. to dem onstrate it's speedsters.
 From then on his career was me- teoric He became one/of the best known automobile racers in the country.
 Entered War As Chauffeur
 Rickenbacher entered the World war as chauffeur to General Persh- ing. His rise to American ace of aces was as sensational as the jump from the obscurity of his Columbus home to the highest pinnacle of racing fame.
 Rickenbacher became a part of the American expeditionary forces after a series of 5rebuffs. When the United States entered the war, he was In England b~ying racing cars. He immediately returned to tffis country and offered his services. He tried to get governmental sanction to a plan of his to enlist a flying squadron from among racing drivers of the country, but army officials turned the proffer down.
 A few weeks later Rickenbache CT was on his way overseas as chauf- feur to General Pershing A short time after arriving abroad, ls was in an aviation training camp, placed there through the personal interven- tion of General Pershing.
 Bags First German
 Rickenbacher bagged his first German early in 191s Within a month he had won the croix de guerre and despite his delayed en- trance into aviation, he was the sec ond American to be given the title of ace.
 At this juncture, he met with an accident that nearly ended his ca reer as flyer
 His ear drums were split as 8 re- suit of 5000 foot fall which came after single-1handed fight against three German planes. The tip of one of the wings of the plane Rick enbacher was piloting was carried away by a hostile Fokker, and he plunged to earth. He was rro- nounced incapacitated for further service.
 The former racing driver refused to be put out of the running. and carried his case direct to General Pershing. The latter ruled that he still might fight

WHY WE NEED EMBASSIES

From the letters of Walter Fl. Page. the late American ambassador to England, in The Worlds Work:
 My dear House: On the present basis, much of the diplomatic busi- ness is sheer humbug-rich men with ambitious women playing the game of social display-never for day setting forth the aims and ideals of the American republic. It will always be so till we have our own embassies and an established positaion in consequence. Without a home or a hous> or tn established background, every man has to es- tablish his own position for himself; and unless he be unusual this throws him clean out of the way of giving emphasis to the right things.

IHotV py Ottpi'eHSoH Stuuio.
 Well, here's little Birmingham rag-lady who is none of these things. Bend low and I'll whisper; She's Cinderella and has just put on her little slipper to convince everybody that it is her tiny foot on which 1t belongs. Note the air of assurance mingled with just little dash of surprise that anybody ever could have doubted 1t.
 She is little Miss Virginia Swann, with red golden curls. and the tiny daughter of MT. and Mrs, Theodore ~Swann. All that is lacking in the picture is the little pumpkin car riage in which Miss Cinderella rode to the princes party. But you have to assume it's just out of sight around the corner for another bright ride some glorious fairy day.

Ky MIGNON HALL


 Do you remember when you were a little girl and played rag lady?
 Do you recall how you pretended you were the princess and went call ing in your grand carriage-or sat up on high box, which was a throne, while the other children passed and saluted you. and you con descended a frigid bow.
 Wasn't that just magnificent?
 Or maybe you were a fairy in. dis guise--or the sleeping beauty-only your eyes just wouldn't stay shut not more than minute anyhow Then they popped wide open and you wanted to be queen of the yellow butterflies and ride on rose leaf.
 That was even more exciting. Japan is its patriotic unanimity in the time of crisis, coupled with a tenacity and national patience that never seems to wear itself out. The opposition parties approved the an swer of the government to the United States and declared that the time had arrived to present an absolutely unified front A coalition ministry was talked of to better assure this end, just as in France before the great war the grand ministry" was formed under Poincare when there was danger of trouble with Germany.
 General Situation.
 The general situation here over ex- ternal political matters was compi l. cated in an important way internally by the sudden effort of some 2o'ooo ship workers at Kobe to set up SO of nan'S control | in great ship building plants, in that 1 city. The men demanded control by an industrial commission formed or | workmen, a six-hour day. syssem | of pensions and. generally,> better working conditions. This situation was partly the result of the high cost of living, which is greater here than | any place in the world, and partly the result of absorbing western so- | cialism as recently manifested py Italian workmen in their attempts to syndicalize Italian factories. Ihe Kobe plants which were building warships for Japan were shut dowr and troops and bluejackets were called out to guard naval property ! and maintain order.
 The State Department at Washing | ton announced on July 27 last tha' l the Japanese government had accept 1 ed the Invitation to attend the con l ference on limitation of armament | but wanted to know the scope anc nature of subjects to be discussed l under the head of Pacific and Fai Eastern matters.
 Notes were made public showing | that Secretary of State Hughes haS ! asked the Japanese government no l to press it's inquiry about Far East ern policies and principles. but t' Iieave that for discussion in preparint the agenda.
 Japan replied that, under those GIT cumstances, it would gladly accep an invitation for conference whici N shall embrace the discussion of tn \ |tPacific and Far Eastern questions.
