THAT HANGS ON

Persistent coughs and colds lead to seri-
Gus trouble. You can stop them now with
Creomulsion, an emulsifed creosote that
is pleasant to take. Creomulsion is a new
medical discovery with two-fold action; it
soothes and heals the inAamed membranes
and inhibits germ growth.
OF all known drugs, creosote is recog-
nized by high medical authorities as one
of the greatest healing agencies for per-
sistent coughs and colds and other forms
of throat troubles. Creomulsion contains,
in addition to creosote, other healing ele-
ments which soothe and heal the infected
membranes and stop the irritation and
Inflammation, while the creosote goes on
to the stomach, is absorbed into the blood,
attacks the seat of the trouble and checks
the growth of the germs.
Creomulsion is guaranteed satisfactory
in the treatment of persistent coughs and
colds, bronchial asthma, bronchitis and
other forms Of respiratory diseases, and is
excellent for building up the system after
colds or flu. Money refunded if any cough
or cold is not relieved after taking accord
ing to directions. For sale by all drug
gists. Send coupon for free sample.

AMERICAN TELLS
TALE OF CRUELTY
BY THE RUSSIANS

NEW YORK, Feb. %. H9 = Three
times told he was to be shot, and for
two years held in % Russian pris-
ons, Julius Chevalier, one time Stand
ard Oil engineer and native of Texas,
arrived tooay en- route to Washington
to tell his story to the state depart

| Chevaler who is 35, landed at
Providence, r. T., when the freighter
Asia docked, and came here by rail
with his two children, Hanna, 4, and
Louis, 6.
He was arrested, he said, without
warning at Batum during the coun-
ter revoltion in 1924, the day before
he was to sail with his family for
the United States. He was accused
of espionage, and protested, he said,
/ in vain.
The first decision to shoot him, he
said, was changed to a sentence of
10 years at hard labor when he said
he was an American, and this was
Ysubsequently reduced to three years

eastern theatres" of war, and says
the plan of British and allied war
which would have best served our
interests in the year 1915 would
have been surprise attack upon the
Dardanelles"
The Germans, likewise, he said,
missed an opportunity in the east to
decisively dispose of Russia, and to
take over Roumania's grain and OF!
when verdun was chosen as the oh,
jective.
The order in which the events of
1917 broke the deadlock of mutual
"butchering" is important, says the
author.
IF the allies had been left to face
the collapse of Russia without being
sustained by the intervention of the
United States, it seems certain tn
France could not have survived the
year, and the war would have ended
in a peace by negotiation or, in other
words, a German victory
"The total defeat of Germany" he
says, was due to three cardinal mis-
takes; the decision to march through
Belgium regardless of bringing Brit
ain into the war; the decision to
begin the unrestricted U-boat war
regardless of bringing the United
States into the war; and thirdly, the
decision to use the German forces
liberated from Russia in 1913 for
final onslaught in France.
"Of all the grand miscalculations
of the German high command none
is more remarkable than their in
ability to comprehend the meaning
of war with the American union.
It is perhaps the croWning example
, OF the unwisdonl of basing a war
policy upon the computation of ma
terial factors alone.
@There is no need to exaggerate
the material assistance given by the
| United states to the allies. All that
could be sent was given as fast ana
as freely as possible. But
the war ended long before the ma
terial power of the United States
could be brought to bear as a ee-
cisive or even as principal factor
but if the physical power
OF the United States was not in
fact applied in any serious degree
to the Beating down Of Germany;
il for instance only a few score
| thorsand Germans fell by American
hands; the moral consequence of the
United States joining the allies was
indeed the deciding cause in the
conflict"
OF President Wilson, Churchill says
III part:
"What he did in April, 1917, could
| have been done in May, 1915, anf
if done then what abridgement or
the slaughter; what sparing of the
/ agony; what ruin, what catastropnea
would have been prevented
how different would be the shattered
world in which victors and van
quished alike are condemned TO

Mexico Postpones Five
Per Cent Import Duties

MEXICO CITY, Feb. 2S R)-As a
result of protests from business in
terests, the Mexican government am
nounced Saturday the indefinite post
ponement of the new per cent ad
lva.orem import dties which had been
ordered effective March 4. The
duties had been ordered imposed
upon virtually everything imported
to Mexico.
Some business men declared that
the new duties would boost prices
beyond the ability of the people to
endure, would deaden the already
stagnant trade and would incrase
the cost of living which at present
is almost impossibly high for many
Meanwhile, however, numerous other
increases in customs duties continue
effective and the general policy of
the Mexican government for tariff
revision upwards remains unchanged.
