Your Health
BY DR.. MORRIS FIsHBEIN-

A HEADACHE is Just pain in the head. But
"A there are so many kinds OF headaches @nd so
many causes of headaches that it would give you
pain Just thinking of them.
One group. however that has brought on all sorts
of headaches is that concerned with the sinuses
These come usually from difficult breathing and con-
gestion
The pain coming from infection of the snuSes is
usually worse in the middle of the day in the
morning and tends to get better in the late after
noon Or at night. The reason for this is that the
SinuSes begin to drain after the person concerned
has been on his feet in upright position for
eight 10 hours.
CINCE there are several sinuSes distributed in vari-
- portions of the head. the pains associated with
infections in any of them vary.
The frontal sinuSes are in the forehead just above
the nose Infection of these SinuseS usually causes
pain right where the SinUS9S are located, and the
pain is usually limited to the side involved.

is more likely to cause pain above the eye than
directly in the sinus. although pain is also fire.

vey just hint, perhaps, that even
the American people might
change their views on militarism
and nayalism"
In cities everywhere up and
down the land the throngs were
presently tramping the pavements
to the glorious chant, Prepare!
Prepared Prepared" The en-
thusiasm was awe-inspiring. Silent
behind the Juror Mr.. Wilson, at
least, had reason to worry.
Spring was slipping toward
summer; at Verdun the bloodiest
and most frightful battle ever sus-
tanned by armies roared on and
on, without cease and without de-
ciSion.
Even the guileless Tumulty be-
came alarmed, and on May 16 sent
in a memorandum to his chief:
ct seems to me the time is now
at hand for you to act in the mat
ter or peace.
The President knew better than
TumuIty that the United States
had to have peace. The same day
he wrote to House in New York
that it was time to get down ito
hard pan" with his friend, Sir
Edward.
Thus stirred to action, House
drafted another cable to the for
eign minister; the President APP
proved it and it went on May 10.
America has reached the cross
roads, if we can not soon maui

ONE of the most remarkable stories in the desper-
~ ate annals of the Far North stands revealed in
"The Voyage of the Chelyuskin" (Masmillan; $3.50
This book tells of the loss of a Soviet government
freight ship in the Arctic ice foes and describes the
rescue of the 104 people aboard
Written by some two dozen assorted members of
the expedition, translated by Alec Brown and illus
trated by numerous photographs, it is as thrilling
tale of Arctic adventure you could to find.
During the last decade the Russian government
has devoted much time and money to the task Of
establishing regular commercial waterways along its
frost-boUnd Arctic coastline.

caught it. bore it up northwest Of Wrange Island
and finally sank it. The 104 men, women and chill
dren aboard escaped to the ice and for two months
camped there in the dead of winter Every soul
finally was rescued by relays of airplanes
The saving of this large party was stupendous
achievement, and it loses nothing in the telling The
story has quaint overtOnes now and then-the Com

ONLY A STUFFED CLUB

HERE at last, for the first time
Il l. in the long course Of the
House negotiations, was the threat
of direct pressure upon the
Entente-the sort of pressure with
out which the negotiations had
never from the beginning had the
slightest chance of success.
Yet Downing Street had slight
reason for alarm. 1t was too obvious
by this time that we were welding
only a stuffed club.
Nor was this all The policy of
the House Grey memorandum had
been founded upon the assumption
that the American people would
support the future guaranty Of
world peace; yet the President
had omitted to verify it or even to
hint to his countrymen of the
extent to which he was COM
hitting.
A meeting of the League to En-
force Peace, to be held at Phila-
delphia on May q. offered him
the opportunity not only to an
nounce the general policy of peace
on the basis of future guarantees,
but also TO insist that the Entente
accept his mediation to that end.
The President and his adviser had
already drafted the addreSS-ap-
parently as a fortnight demand
for immediate peace in Europe.
But now, with the obduracy of the
French, the persistent reluctance
of Grey, how far dared they go?
Any hope of forcing peace
conference at that time was dead.
When, three days later, Mr.. Will
son stepped upon the platform at
Philadelphia he did not call for
peace.
Instead, he merely stated the
attitude which If it should ever
be our privilege to suggest or
initiate a movement for peace" he
believed the United States should
adopt.
The President founded it upon
two proposals. First, the actual
settlement of the existing war
should be left wholly to the bel
ligerentS.
But to assist the belligerents in
reaching a settlement, the United
States should be willing to be-
come a partner in any feasible
association of nations" thereafter;
and therefore he made his second
proposal:

Thus was the League OF Nations

The British we're furious; The
French were furious; the Republic

loyal Democratic papers were sur

seemed to imply that President
Wilson put Germany on the same
moral plane with the Allies.
But even the Germans we're

MEXICO RISES AGAIN

IF such inSiStence proved with
Il out effect. Germany would re-
cover her liberty of action. In
the upshot a final American note
was dispatched on the eighth of
MAY. We noted and accepted the
agreement to abide by the rules
of cruiser warfare; we explicitly
rejected the idea that this could
be in any way contingent upon
the action of the British.
There the matter rested. The
Germans made no formal reply,
and new calm settled after
crisis over both Washington and
Berlin. The submarine had been
completely curbed: the laurels of
smashing diplomatic victory lay
upon Mr.. Wilson'S brow, while he
had at the same time kept us
out of war.
On May there was opinous
news from Mexico. The Car
ranzist forces were threatening
to attack the Pershing column;
and that day the National Guard
of Arizona. New Mexico and Texas
was called out to reinforce the
border The day after. Col. House
dispatched a long cable to Sir
Edward Grey:
There is an increasingly in
siStent demand here that the
President take some action to-
ward bringing the war to a elise.
The impression grows that the AL
lies are more determined upOn
the punishment of Germany than
upon exacting terms that neutral
opinion would consider just.
If the President is to serve hui
mainly in a large way. steps
should be taken now.
But that transparent appeal
could scarcely have alarmed Sir
Edward-who could follow the
submarine controversy quite as
we'll as Col. House. The answer
ing cable was back in two days.
To act under the House Grey
memorandum now. Sir Edward

if the President should summon
a peace conference of his own
without any indication of a basis
on which peace might be made"
he would merely be helping Ger
many to win the war.

MEETING THE KAISER

A T last the kaiser received
"a him, before lunch, in a gar
den on the hillside below the Cha
teau of Charleville. His majesty
was in full uniform.
"As I drew near the emperor
he said Immediately: Do you
come like the great proconSul
bearing peace or war in either
hand?'
L said No, Your Majesty, only
hoping that differences between
two friendly nations may be ad-
juSted.'
Nothing definite resulted, of
course, but perhaps it eased the
tension. Just before Gerard re-
turned to Berlin the chancellor
said to him: L hope now that
if we settle this matter your
President will be great enough
to take up the question of peace"
Apparently the ambassador said
nothing to this, but did not try
to disabuse them of the idea.
Mr.. Gerard's audience took
place on May l. On May 3 he
heard that an answer to the
United States had been prepared.
Next day, May 4, the long cipher
telegram began to come into
Count BernStorff'S embassy.
As the first paragraphs were
decided the staff read them SOL
EMMY. Then it is war;" they
told each other. 1t yielded every
thing which the United States
had asked. But then the note
went on;
"NeutralS can not expect that
Germany shall for the sake
of neutral interest restrict the use
of an effective weapon if her
enemy is permitted to continue
to apply at will methods of war
fare violating the rules of inter-
national law the German
government is confident that

mand and insist that the British
government shall forthwith OBJ

States to the British government

ton, as Mr.. Brand Whitlock saw,
the most significant American
state paper since the enunciation
of the Monroe Doctrine nearly
century before.
In effect, it directly reversed
that greatest pillar of American
foreign policy, and in doing so
abandoned one of the most power
full traditions of American state
craft.
House was delighted with the
address, for he saw that 1T leaves
the Republicans without a single
issue either foreign or domestic"
and that Taft, Root, Choate and
most of the Republican leaders
are compelled to indorse it be-
cause of their previous position"
1t was quite true. If Mr.. Wilson
had repealed the Monroe Doctrine,
he had done SO only upon the
most eminent of advice and urg-
ing.

"HE KEPT US OUT OF WAR"

TINE Democratic "keynoter" was
Il former Gov. Martin H Glynn
of New York. Gov Glynn had de-
Cided to stress the note of peace;
and to show that peace was not
incompatible with honor, he had
compiled a long catalogue of in
stances in our history in which
foreign outrage of one sort or an
other had been adequately met
not by war, but by diplomacy.
1t was dull, yet the huge crowd
appeared to be absorbing it with
interest He started to skip; in
stantly shouts arose, mo, no! Go
on! Give us more" 1t began to
dawn upon the startled speaker
that they meant what they said;
they were devouring every word
of it.
The Democratic managers them
selves could not have realized the
true depth and power of the pac-
fist sentiment in the cOuntry-SO
long Obscured by the OutpOurings
of the editorial war-hawkS or the
romantic patriotism of the upper
classes. Here, suddenly, was some
thing to cOnjure with. The DEM
Ocratic keynote, soon to be Summa-
rized in the famous slogan, He
kept us out of war;" had been
sounded almost by accident.
Naturally, Gov. Glynn did not
make the mistake Of assuming this
sentiment to be universal. His
appeal to the pacific on the ground
that the President had not gone
to war was carefully reinforced
with an appeal to the bellicose on
the ground that the President was
ready to fight if necessary.
The Administration policy, as
he put it. satisfied "the mothers
of the land. at whose freside no
jingoistic war has placed an empty
chair; simultaneously. it salts
fed the fathers of this land and
the sons of this land" who might
be prepared to die for our flag
when reason primes the rifle,
when honor draws the sword" 1t
was the perfect combination. con-
structed upon the immemOrial
principles of political oratory TO
catch them going and coming.

suggest the name-of Senator
Henry Cabot Lodge!
Mr.. Roosevelt had picked per-
hapS the one man whose Ion
record of Bourbon conservatism
offered the greatest denial of
every liberal tenet to which the
party had been dedicated.
"a more stunned, whipped
crowd" Mr.. Houston recorded, Il
had never looked upon. 1t was
a pitiful spectacle. 1t had been
hoaXed." So Progressivism died
miserably and ignobly at the hand
of its creator.
The Republicans thereupon
adopted a platform of stirring
platitudes, deity evading every
important issue of the hour, and
nominated Mr. JUSTICE Hughes.
They now had, they believed, the
Progressive vote. Their candidate
ought to be able to hold the pro-
Germans; while their platform
blazed with enough nationalistic
fervor to escape the danger Of
their being regarded as a German
party.
Four days later the Democratic
convention assembled in st.
Louis. The Democratic man
ayers were no more anxious than
the Republicans to draw any of
those basic issues which, unfor-
tunately, always risk the aliena-
ton of votes.
They stood, like the Republi-
cans, firmly against war and
resolutely in favor of these things
which normally led up to it.
