AVE MUST BE READY TO RESPOND. understanding is that General Foch is not yet ready for his great offensive. When he is there will be something doing that will give the world a thrill. In addressing an audience of ship yard employes at Aberdeen, Washington, Saturday, Mr. Sohwab, among other things, said that at the great ship yard at Hog Is land on August first a 9,000 ton steel ship would be launched and after that a similar ship would be sent into the water every day. In round numbers this mans about a quarter of a million tons a month, or almost as much as the submarines have sunk monthly for the past year. He also promises that during the next year this country will launch at least 10,000,000 tons of ships. If this can be accomplished the present ship shortage will be steadily decreased, for the sinkings now will not equal the new tonnage. ; The Woman Who Changed J By JAXE PHELPS Musical Duo at Chautauqua A BIT OF GOSSIP. controlled them in to dom expected With an The government has called on the citizens during the last year, or will have done so when the next Liberty loan is floated, for above $12,000,000,000. Thii is a tremendous ; sum, but it is only half of what we must expect to put up ' next year, if the war continues, and for that matter even should it end by the middle of next summer. We are in the war to win, and' no matter what the cost, win we must. It is inconceivable to even try to think of any peace that is rot dictated by the allies, for any other is a defeat. Any other leaves the world subject to a repeti tion of the horrors of the last four years, at any tim? the militarists of the central powers find themselves in a po sition to make another attempt at world supremacy. It would no doubt be many years before another attempt) would be made but it would be only a question of time The perfection of the Zeppelin, encouraged by rrus sian militarists in the belief that they the air and that this supremacy placed a position to dictate to the world and inate it. Had the Zeppelin proved all they the dream would not nave been an idle one. aerial navy that could sail over any country, it would have been a far greater power than the control of the seas. Fortunately the big airships fell far short of thtii promise, but-who knows what the future may bring forth along this line, and at what time madness will again pos sess the Hun? The only end that will be an end, is the litter defeat of militarism and a lague of nations that will ccmpel peace or place those who would break it where they will be harmless. 'This means that we should pre pare now for the demands that will be made on us, and each be ready t omeet those demands. The annual income of all the people in the year 1912 was thirty billion dol lars. It is probable the income for 1918 will be double that, for the production in practically all lines has great ly increased. When the government takes from the peo ple, as it will next year $25,000,000,000, it will have to be expended for something. Outside of the pay of the sol diers practically all the balance will purchase something which the American people must produce. Because of this we. will be able to meet all demands made on us for the money loaned is put back in circulation and returns to the source from which it came. It is time now though, to begin to prepare for the tremendous drain that will be made on our resources, and lay by the money we will be called on to advance. Hindenburg's army is in a pretty dangerous position, owing to the allies dominating his lines of communica tion. He must either advance and break through the al lied lines, or withdraw his forces, and this at probably great cost in men. In either case some of the fiercest fighting of the war seems inevitable. Every mile of ad vance by the forces near Soissons multiplies his danger, and this is what has caused the sending of his reserves to stop this advance at all hazards. The weather clerk apparently wants to send a show er to this section but has evidently forgotten how to do it. Maybe he can recall the formula by state fair time.

The sawbones tells me I must walk for sixty minutes by the clock; so I must leave my dear abode, and push mjfeelf along the road, must climb the hill and thread the dell-farewell, old girls, a long farewell!" Oh, then I sweat along the lea, and motor cars come up by me; their drivers say, "Get in and ride! You're wearing out the countryside; it wawsn't built for such a weightget in and ride, you old fat skate !" It takes all kinds of for titude to say, "I'm in tthe walking mood; I guess I will rot ride today," and groan along my stony way. I walk three versts and then return to where the household bea cons burn, and sit me down beneath the trees; I've sprained my ankles and my knees, while struggling up the dusty track, and I have stitches, in my back, and shooting pains around my neck, my lungs and windpipe are a wreck.. The doctor says that exercise is just the stuff for hefty guys; if I don't take my daily walk, I'll soon be planted, says the doc; scared stiff by all his fierce harran gues, I still saw off the parasangs. Li Chancellor Von Hertling's latest peace drive has fall en flat. In fact it was a trifle flat and considerably stale when he made it. It is the same old offer to the allies of a peace made in Germany, with and the kaiser a peace that can never be made. The ambition-crazed Hohenzol lern has forced a debt on the world that before the war ends will be above one hundred and fifty billions of dol lars and may reach two hundred billion. The world can not make any peace except such an one as will leave all the nations in the world in such shape that the peace of the world cannot be again endangered by any one of them. This can only be done when the present German government gives place to one backed by the German people. Any agreement made by Germany must be back id by a government of the people, and under which the people and not the war lords will alone have the right to declare war. The allies do not desire to dictate to the German people what kind of a government they shall have, but they have a right to and will demand that what ever form it takes, that it will be one that will not consid er a treaty a "scrap of paper". The fangs of militarism must be extracted, and if they have to be shot out, so much the worse for Germany. The bringing up of great reserves on the French front has caused the poilus and the Americans to slow up, but has not yet stopped them.

DAILY SHOT: AT KAISER ' FOR HOME FOOD SAVERS ' CHAPTER CXXXV. Madge Loring called upon ate -ne-af-1 ternoon soon after rhr return. I was not particularly pleased to see her, but, in line with my n.?w resolves, I tried to b particularly gracious. She, too. seemed more attractive than I ever had found i her. It flashed across ray mind that ; perhaps Mrs. Sexton had teen right i when she told me, a long time before that our ow attitude toward people tinged tlueirs toward us, to a great ex tent that people usuallv responded in kind. Be that as it may, I certainly found myself enjoying the call. We chatted of the peoiplc we know, and what had been going on socially while George and I were away. She asked if we had seen Julia Collins, and wb?u I told her "yes frequently", (altho I omitted to men tion anything unpleasant, she said: "I hear she is to marry Mr. Lombard a very wealthy Chicago man. Of course she hasn't announced h.?r engagement yet, and one never can be sure of Julia doing anything until after it is done." I was tempted te tell her of tho man w.? had seen Mrs. Collins with, that night in the restaurant, but did not. Af terward. I was glad I had restrained my selr. It Julia marriert, l siiould mrvery much pleased, especially if she would make her home in Chicago. But it would have been a very tactless thing to allow her best friend to discover my feelings on the subject. HELEN REPEATS THE GOSSIP. When G.-orge came in to linncr, I re peated what Madge had told me. He didn't seem at all surprised, and only remarked: "It was enevitable that Julia should make another marriage, and a good one; she has many sterling, as well as charm ing qualities. If she marries Lombard, he is to be congratulated." A shorj tinio before I should have been annoyed at the flattering way in which George had spoken of Mrs. Col lins. But novr I simply rejoined: "Mrs. Loring was very funny. She said that one never could bo sure of what Julia Collins would do until she had done it." "Madge knows her pretty well; and pr.rhap the uncertainty in which she k?eps her admirers, is one of Julia's at tractions." 1 Made no reply, but thought of what tienrgr had said many times. Was it true that, to keep a man in uncertaincy, added to one) attractive ness? Inothcr words, did George mean that if I kept hiru guessing, he would on n'ore apt to earg for me? I did not believe so. I thought it a case that ap plied to. the "other fellow," not to him. I would ask him, some time when it eanvo naturally when ho could not think it was because I was jealous of Js'ia ohms.

Sometimes 1 would allow myself" to think that, in the years to come, I should bj- nry j appy liko Mr. and Mrs. Liabcock, or like father and mother. Tho it was nit easy to think of George and nie leading the quiot home-life led bv niy parents; it was easier to think of our Chicago friends. They were so ciety people, such .as George's people were, and as wo wore obliged to be. But they were just as happy. Being so cially prominent had not spoiled their It v.'s together. They seemed just as happy as did father and mother. 1 decided to take Mrs. Bubcock for a pattern. That is, when I felt that I was to have a happy future.

It can be said, without qualifica tion, that medicine is cstieutial in the treatment of malaria and that there are certain medicines which will cure it. Tho early Spanish invaders of ' this continent found plenty of malaria here. Early in the seventeenth century, Jesuit missionaries in Peru found that it could bo controlled by a de coction made from the bark of an evergreen tree growing on the Andes. Countess Ana of Chinchon, wifa of the Spanish viceroy, was a suf ferer from malaria and was cured by this docoction. She introduced tho bark Into) Spain and Linnaeus, and called tho trees bearing this bark "Cincho nas." It is also called "Countess Bark," "Jesuit's Bark," etc, etc., and its most Important alkaloid is quinine. Nothing In tho world will destroy the parasite of malaria like quinine. There are red and yellow cinchona barks, and a few years ago differ ent preparations from these barks were in general use. We now hear little of anything but quinine, which ft the sheet-anchor in the treatment of malaria. Not long ago malaria was exten sively treated, especially in the Mississippi and Ohio valleys, with mercury. Its only advantages over quinine were that it was cheaper -mad moro easily procured, but those advan tages no longer count It is the most powerful germicide we have, but it is intensely poisoaoas, affects the teeth badly, and has other dis agreeable qualities. On the whole. It Is a poor and a dangerous substitute for quinine. Arsenic is much used In treating malaria, and often gives good re sults. It has recently achieved new success In the form of Salvarsan or 606. The objection to it is the same as to mercury, it is a violent corro sive poison, is eliminated from the body with difficulty and, when re tained. may produce destructive changes in the tissues. Other malarial medicines which are used with or without quinine, are iron, silver, nitro-giycerine, opium, strychnia," cocaine, camphor, musk, myrrh, methylone-bluo.-ealine waters, etc., but they do not have the powerful effect upon Plasmodia that quinine has. A very valuable combination for the treatment of this disease, which was for many years a secret remedy, is known as "Warburg's Tincture" and contains thirteen dif ferent drugs, including quinine. Many other different combina tions are made and extensively ad vertised as cures for malaria, but unless they contain quinine, their value may be questioned. Unless the exigencies of the war should remove quinine from tha market, or increase Its price far beyond its present limits, we had better stick to this invaluable drug in tho treatment of malaria. Fortunately, too, there isn't so much malaria nowadays as there used to be, at least in this country. Questions and Answers. O. J3.Plea3e tell mc the cause of bunions and how they may be cured.
