YANKS THINK OF
I
HIT BY BULLET
WITH THE AMERICAN ARMIES
IN THE FIELD, Oct. 15. (Corres-
pondonce of Associated Press.) When
an American soldier boob "over the
toi" or when ho rocolves n bullet or
shrapnel wound ho 111 In lis of his
mother. The Krone)! pollu thinks of
his wife, and tho British Tommy of
his sweetheart. '
This fact la homo out by tho offi
cers und doctors who have served In
all thrco of tho allied armies. They
declure that when tfio American sol
dier Is wounded, tho, first word on
Ills Hps is almoRt In overy case
"Mother." Even nft'or lio Is removed
to the hospital he calls constantly for
his mother. Ills Drlllnh cousin, how
over; ooonis chiefly absorbed in his
sweetheart, and longs to soo hor
, "just once again," whllo his French
compatriot thinks only of his "fommo
blcn almee."
The correspondent of tho A:isoclat
od Tress at the American front nuked
n number of soldiers what thought
was most on their minds when thny
first left their trenches to nttack tho
Ciormnns. in nine enses out of ton
tho answer was, "Of homo and moth
er."
Thnre woro n few, howover, who
snld that as they entered the battle
their minds were given over wholly
to prayer, nllho they had never letoro
boon In I ho habit of praying. Some
of them kept boforo them words of
encouragement nnd comsel contain
ed In loiters from relatives.
Ono soldier on tho morning of tho
attack received a letter rrom his
mother quoting tho scriptural phrase
"Trust In tho Lord nnd no enemy
shnll prosper against thee." Tho sol
dier went thru one of tin b!ondlosi
battles of tho war that day and came
out unscathed! -
FOODSTUFF CREDIT
ALLOWED 10. ITALY
WASHINGTON, Nov. I I A credit
of $1110.0(1(1.00(1 for Italy was an
nounced today by the treasury. This
will be used largely to pay for food
stuffs and wnr supplies already ord
ered by tho Italian government In
this country and in process of manu
facture or export. Hal;. 's aggregate
loans from the United Slates now
amount to $l,t:o,iiio.tl00 and those
of nil Hie allies $7,!il2,97(i,t;r,i;.
CAN the lcnjiard change his spots, the Ethiopian his skin
or the Hun his inbred savagiy? Not in this genera
tion, at all events.
The Hun is humbled bv failure, but not repentant. T.e
German nation is nxiifinl and chagrined, but not peni
tent. Not a siiitflo ex); version showing regret for f right
fulness and barbarism has come out ot the country. Ger
mans do not yet realize the abhorrance in which they are
held by the civilized world on account their atrocities.
The Germans have turned against the kaiser, because
of the war's failure not became of his crimes. They are
enranged like a beast despoiled of prey. Not since the war
began has ruthlessness aroused a protest in Germany,
and now that it is over, it is not the inhumanity practiced,
but its failure to secure victory that enrages the German
with his rulers. As long as there were spoils to share, as
Jong as there was loot to distribute, as long as there were
slaves to work and people to exploit, the reign of f rightful
ness was eminently satisiaetorv.
We have just had a celebration in America to applaud
tne tlcieat 01 trie nowers ol evil that threatened the liberties
i of the world. German y had a similar jubilee when the Lus-
itania was sunk and a thousand innocent men, women and
children perished in del uiiicc ot the law ot God and man.
Turnout tho empire there was public, rejoicing and medals
were struck to commemorate the atrocity. Can a people
capable of such things be expected to show contriteness of
heart for their sins? '
We are apt to place the blame for f rightfulness upon
the German i uling classes, because the crimes were or
dered as part of the military program but it was the Ger
man people, wlf; comprised the army, the rank and file of
the nation, who took delight in executing these orders in
the field and applauded their execution at home. It was
the German peasant and workman who mutilated the
wounded with his saw-tooth bayonet, who mained chil
dren, who crucified helpless captives and defiled woman
hood, who poisoned wells and was guilty of the thousand!
barbarities.
The mark of the beast is upon them all nobles and peo
ple, clergy and scholars, officers and privates, and civilians,
because for two generations, from the cradle the Dhiloso-
phy of the brute has been scientifically inculcated in them
all to make them amenable to the feudal autocracy's pro
gram of conquest and eager agents in its execution.
It is too much to expect that the Germans of this gener
ation will be other than they are tho the humiliation of
failure may convince them of the error of their ways. The
only rule they respect is the rule of force their only ideal
ot right is the pagan ideal of brutal might and it is to be
regretted that they will not sutler as they have made other
nations suffer in barbarity, slavery and servitude.
The allied nations, however, caiinot descend to the level
of the Germans. They must uphold ti.o principles and
ideals of Christianity and civilization. They must ex
tend a helping hand io alleviate the famine Germany has
brought upon herself but they must also sternly enforce
punishment of the guilty for" the crimes committed and
compel an unscathed Germany to pay for the devastation
and ruin she has wrought in her mail effort to subjugate
the world, so that a nation immune to htimantariau prin
ciples will learn by bitter experience that frightfiilness, as
a matter of dollars and nts, does not pay.

THE MOST
DANGEROUS DISEASE
No organs of the human body are
so Important to health and long life
as the kidneys. When they slow up
and commence to lag In their duties,
lookout! Danger Is In sight. .
Find out what the trouble Is
without delay. Whonever you feel
nervous, weak, dizzy, suffer from
sleeplessness, or have pains In the
back or difficulty In passing urine
wake up at once. Your kidneys need
help. These are signs to warn you
that your kidneys are not performing
their functions properly. They are
only half doing their work and are
allowing Impurities to accumulate
and be converted Into uric acid and
other poisons, which are causing you
distress and will destroy you unless
they are driven from your system. I
