SITUATION IN AUSTRO-HUNGARY
The full seriousness of the domestic situation within
Austria-Hungary is revealed by the decision of the Ger
man government to send food into the dual monarchy,
drawn from Germany's own scanty supplies, according to
J. W. T. Mason, the United Press European war expert
The Austro-Hungarian food mur'ster, Pawl, has been
an Berlin several days trying to persuade the Germans to
relieve the famine conditions in the Hapsburg empire. He
was unable to convince the Berlin government of the
urgency of the situation until rioting began in Vienna
nd other Austrian towns. The disturbances apparently
frightened the German authorities into fearing a revolu-
m A I TT - , a
xion in Ausrna-nungary. ino expectation less serious
than this can explain the decision of the Germans to part
with even the smallest quantity of their own dwindling
lood reserve.
The sacrifice wrested from the Germans may stabilize
for the time being conditions in Austria-Hungary, but the
precedent established is destined to have increasingly
eenous consequences with the prolongation of the war,
The population of Vienna has learntd they can improve
the quantity of their rations by rioting. Time must come
when Germany will have to refusa to send another car
load of food into the dual monarchy. When that situation
arises Austria-Hungary may follow the way of Russia.
Germany's own internal condition is menaced by grant
ing the Hapsburg demand for food; but Germany is now
leing governed by a policy of immediate expediency.
Whatever postpones a crash from day to day must be ac
cepted by the Hohenzollerns as their only method of
procedure.
The kaiser's people, still hynotiaed by the glamor of
militarism, are willing to accept greater sacrifices than
is Austria-Hungary. The necessary inference is that the
Austro-Hungarians have begun to fall away from military
worship. By attacking the food regulations of the
militarists, they have secured more food for themselves.
This part of the lesson may suddenly come home to the,
underfed masses -of Germany.

IDLE DREAMS
If I were not so weighty, and if my wintry
years were not so close to eighty, I'd scrap
uKe seven steers, i ou would not see me
sitting here in an easy chair, while martial
lads are hitting each other everywhere. I'd
like to be a flyer, and mount an aeroplane,
and soar up high and higher than you'd
consider sane. I'd chase the Prussian bird
men with patriotic glee, and show them
they're absurd men to mix things up with
me. To Potsdam I'd go flopping on my
large aupiex wings, ana tftere they'd see me
dropping a lot. of bombs and things. I'd
spoil the kaiser's palace, and leave it
pounded flat, or else I'd bust a gallus and likewise break
a siat. And then I'd work my pedals, and soar back
whence 1 came, and have a lot of medals hung on my hero
frame. And Pershing, Foch and Joffre, would cry,
"Parbleu! Gee whiz! Did ever mortal duffer see valor
such as his?" And every pretty maiden within a dozen
miles, would come, with laurels laden, and hand mp
wreaths and smiles. My picture would be printed in all
the magazines; "this man." it would be hinted, "has anilled

The Woman Who Changed
By JANE HIELPS
MRS. SEXTON CALMS HELEN
Foreign Minister Burian of Austria-Hungary In a
recent interview says "the central empires do not want
world domination, and admitted they could not attain it
anyway. That is the reason they do not want it. When
ever they are getting the worst of it, their desire for
world conquest always grows less, but it springs to life
again quickly when the situation is more hopeful. Ap
parently things are not looking good to. Mr. Burian.
After the Italians get through with the Austrian army
new fighting them, the desire for world domination will
shrink to such dimensions, that permission to remain on
the map and be dominated by the world will be considered
an inestimable boon.
When this war is ended those who have sneeringly
f poken of Americans as "dollar chasers" will be silenced
forever. Pouring money out to defend the rights of the
people of the whole world, at the rate of two billion dol
lars a month is an eloquent answer to any charge that
Americans are mercenary.
Unless the government expects to operate those Ger
man breweries taken over from the Busch estate, they
liowever brings up a nice legal question, as it is asserted
will have to be interned as alien enemies. Their seizure
Mrs. Busch is an American citizen.
Whenever a sawmill, a munitions plant, a shipyard or
any other plant devoted to work that will help win the
war is burned, that vicinity is splendid hunting ground
for pro-Huns. There is certain to be some of them lurk
ing around. i , ; , ' '
Uncle Samuel is acting on the principle that a brewery
well i n hand is worth two in the Busch.

CHAPTER CX.
' ura t aiiow yourself, to become so
excited, my door," Mrs. Sexton said
calmly, " You ore feverish now. I know
it is hard to think out sueh a question,
so vital a thine; nuii'tlv. but un ess vou
do you will surely rogr.ot whatever de
cision you may make." Then she asked:
"Ai'o you positive you no longer love
your husband? Think carefully. You
have much to make vou hannv."
To my astonishment Mrs. Sexton had
not once mentioned the riirht or wronir
of what I purposed doing. I now know
it was simply her own clever way of
helping me to decide without attempt
ing to bias me because of that. I now
realize perfectly that most people would
havo at once spoken of that side of the
question; would hnve made that the
principal factor in the decision 1 had
to make.
"That is whnt I tried to d'cidn Inst
niglit. 1 love Goovgo very much at times,
wuen no is nice to me, even just pleas
ant. But when for days he is fault-finding
and critical; then added to that he
is so attentive to another woman, and
lenves me alone so often he scarcely
ever spends an evening with mo unless
wo are going out or are entertaining at
home. Diif I wouldn't mind anything if
he lind acted as if he loved me, and"
"Has h.o never acted so?" Mrs. Sex
ton interrupted.
Many Kind Acts Recalled.
''Yes, imleedl" I confessed quickly.
" You remember the taxi accident, the
theatre fire, and thn rime in Newport
when I wa nearly drowned. Ho surely
must have loved me a little to talk as
he did, to sny the things ho said."
"That's something in his favor, isn't
it? Now let us see what ollvr things
we can find. You have a beautiful home,
all tho money you need, lovely clothes
molor cars, servants "
"But I'd rather be poor poor as can
m anil !e Joved. But" I hesitated,
j, woiim nave an those things you
mentioned with Morton. Ho may not
bo quite as rich as George; but he could
givo me all those things.-"
I Know dear. We'll come to him
soon. Suppose we finish with Mr. How
ard first," sh0 patted my hand. "Let
me see oh, yes, we had finished with
all the material benefits you have from
hiin. Now tell me aren't there days
at a time when he la .thoughtful and
kind, when he forgot, to criticise, or
when yon give him no cause so that he
can make-no complaint!"
"Yes, often. But that makes it all
the harder. I think many times that it
would be easier to boar if he would al
ways b,a cross and always find fault
with mo. It hurts so after he hag been
nice"
"I know. Then dear, them is another
thing you haven't thought of. As George
Howard's wife you are respected, en
vied. If you leave him and go-with
Morton, you will surely be ostracized
not by everyone, but by the very peo
ple you would like to know. I am not
sure, of course, but I doubt if vou could
get a divorce save on some flimsy pre
text that would not deceive anyone.
I do not believo your husband has been
untrue to you. Do you?"
"I don't know! I wish ! didl"
A Flam Question.
"Would it make nny difference if
you did?"
"Of course! What a funny question"
"A plain question, rather. If you
knew h0 had been true to you siucu
your marriago you would hositate to
leave mm, is that ritrht!"
"Yes yes, I think if it had not been
for my doubt of him I could peihaps
nnvo norn tnB rest tv.'ttor his neglect
and criticisms, hard as they have been."
"And if you knew he had been un
true you could more easily decide in
M.M-ton's favor?"
"Why, of course! Naturally." My
face flushed scarlet. No one, not even
my mother ever had talked to me of
these things.

Signature
By this term is meant inflamma
tion of the almond shaped bodies
. and the tissues around them which
are on either side of the throat or
pharynx.
These organs are no doubt, of Im
portance in guarding the entrance
to the throat, but they are also ex
ceedingly troublesome for they are
.very often the seat of disease, and
they become so greatly enlarged as
practically to block up this en
trance and Interfere greatly with
the function ot breathing,
i When they are enlarged and the
crypts or glands they contain, fuU
of offensive infectious material, in
addition to the other Infectious
material with which the mucous
membrane of the mouth la always
supplied, they are subject to fre
quent attacks of inflammation, be
come a constant menace to the hear
ing and to the health in general
and should be removed.
But this is not an argument for
their indiscriminate removal. Lika
the troublesome, though much
abused appendix, they have a mis
ion to fulfill, and If they cause no
trouble, as Is true In countless
cases, I do not believe any one has
any business to remove them.
The acute form of inflammation
bf the tonsils, also known as quinsy
or quinsy sore throat. Is a rery
troublesome and painful affection
.which is yery common In children
and young adults, particularly dur
ing the winter and early spring.
It may be due to the taferttous
material already in the mouth and
tonsils, or to tuberculosis in the
mouth or the glands of the neck,
and it is often followed by an at
tack of rheumatism.
It begins with dryness, stiffness, '
and soreness of the mouth, with
thirst and with difficulty In swal
lowing. It resembles grippe la the gen
eral discomfort which comes with
It, the chill, pain and soreness in !
over,"
the legs and back and "all
headache and raging fever.
Swallowing becomes more and
more painful and difficult and the
throat more dry, saliva dribbles
from the corners of the mouth,
opening of which becomes impos
sible, the speech becomes inarticu
late, the tongue is coated, the
breath very offensive, hearing is im
paired and at length an abscess
may form in the neck, the throat,
or the ear.
When the abscess discharges or
is opened, there is a feeling of re
lief and improvement generally
takes place.
One form of tonsilitls called folli
cular or croupous tonsilitls may b
mistaken for diphtheria, the tonsils
being covered with a deposit which
suggests the false membrane of
diphtheria. But it' is quite different
from the latter, for it may be easily
scraped away which is not the casa
with the membrane of dlptherta.
In tonsilitls the patient should
have nourishing fluid food and as
much as he can digest, for the di
sease Is an exhausting one.
It is better for him to be in bed,
and isolated from other members of
the family.
If an abscess forms It is desir
able to open it, let it drain freelr
and keep the surrounding tissues
clean, rather than to leave it to na
ture. The bowels must be kept open,
preferably with an antiseptic lika
calomel. The entire cavity of the
mouth must be frequently rinsed
and cleaned with peroxide or soma
other good mouth wash, and tha
tonsils swabbed several times dally
tn a strong solution of nitrate of
silver.
