SAY THEY WERE "HUM-BUGGED" .The German newspapers are angry and express their keen disappointment over the unsatisfactory treaty made with Rumania, They claim Austria-Hungary has receiv ed the lions share of the most valuable Rumanian terri tory, in "the correcting of her frontiers," while Germany "has to shoulder billions of war debt. They also say the petroleum agreement is "an absolute swindle", by which the banks profit, but not the German people. It is also asserted that while Germany is to get grain from Ru mania it is at usurious prices and that Rumania is grab bing the main part of these in the way of export duties. This it is claimed reverses the natural order of things when Germany makes a treaty, and instead of Rumania saving indemnities that task is laid on German should- ers. A memoer or me reicnsiag repuaieu mese state ments before his colleagues recently and added "the German people have been sadly hum-bugged, and when their eyes are opened they will heap maledictions on the heads of those who drafted the treaty." As the Germans have so far refused to have their eyes opened it may be some time before the "heaping of maledictions" will be come due. If the claims made are true it must be indeed aggravating to the German mind to know that for once German diplomacy and greed were over-reached and the ration that assumes to itself the right to dictate to the balance of the world got the worst of the settlement with a conquered people. And yet, it is pleasing to know that our Tuton enemies are sore over the. division of the plun der. The most important feature of the matter however is overlooked as under the recent "treaty" with Austria Germany benevolently assimilated that little side mon archy, and that whatever inures to Austria's benefit real Jy belongs to the kaiser. ' I a. III II. I " . The most pathetic thing about the capture of the vil lage of Metern. by the Scots in the recent drive of the allies is that they deceived the Huns. The latter justly complaind that the victory was "unfair and won by a confidence trick." The attack was made in such a man ner that the Huns were led to believe a gas attack was to be made and the Huns were putting on their gas masks entirely unsuspicious of any infantry attack, when look ing up from their trenches they found the Scots standing above them and having them covered wjth their, rifles. The Scots, they claimed, had not played fair because they had changed the usual program. It is not pathetic however to 4iear the Huns prating of "unfairness," but 'intensely humorous. If the allies keep up their good work there may be considerable to celebrate next Tuesday besides the open ing of the new bridge. Citizens of Salem and the neigh borhood can do a whole lot of extra celebrating on that day if the occasion calls for it, and it is earnestly hoped it will. MB. AND MES. BAB COCK ACCEPT GEORGE'S INVITATION. One German-American soldier during the fighting this week took his own brother prisoner, Correspondent Ferguson cables in his interesting reports from the front in today's Capital Journal. Many of the soldiers finds11!1 old acquaintances among tthe prisoners, generally men who have lived in this country. It seems word had been given the German soldiers 1hat the drive iust turned into a defeat bv the allies, was to be the winning one that would force the allies to sue 'marching on.

It may have done some damage to hay, but it will help the orchards and start the fall pasturage in fine shape. The potato and other veg etable crops will also be greatly benefitted. The German soldiers are now convinced their leaders have been lying to them. They were told there are a mil lion Yankees in France, but are ready to swear since the latter were turned loose on them along the Marne that ten million would be nearer the proper figure. General Hell is in command of the German army in the Soissons-Marne salient. Certainly he should feel at home there with the French and Yanks closing in on three sides. An Amsterdam dispatch says the German press is preparing the German people for bad news. They are sure going to hear it if they hear the truth. The Crown Prince's army was reported at points north of the Marne yesterday. No doubt before he is through Sonny will be greatly pleased to see Pa.

Now the French and British soldiers who have held the foe so long, who have wrestled till they're weary with a foeman fierce and strong, hear the sweet reverbrations tf the Yankee Doodle song our boys are marching on. They come marching from the prairies, from the woods and templed hills, they are marching from the farmsteads and the city's roaring mills, and they've set their hearts on bringing back the scalp of Kaiser Bill our boys are he has conducted an educational campaign, and the Ger- juan soldiers now know a great deal more than they did it short week ago. It may be the drive that is to bring peace, but it is noted that it is headed toward Berlin, which at least is suggestive of where the peace will be made. for peace. If Hindenburg has accomplished nothing else (Yankee hosts to scorn; all dependence on our helping was an Allied nope lonorn; but our teet will soon be treading on the sore All-Highest corn our boys are marching on. We could never cross the ocean, they would get us while afloat, they would sink our loaded vessels with the under water boat, but a million boys have landed, keen to get the Prussian goat our boys are marchineon. Soon they'll put some pep and ginger in that weary, dragging wiap, tiiey win suow uie nonen-iiinaens wnat we mean by western snap, and if they can catch the kaiser they will spoil his frowning map our boys are marching on. They are marching from the village; from the forest and the mart, every one with high ambition in his young and dauntless heart, they are out to can the kaiser and they 'll finish what they start our boys are marching on. At last the war has been felt drectly on American Foil. Sunday a submarine attacked a flotilla of coal bar ges off the Massachusetts coast, and one of the shells fired by the U-boat fell a mile inland. Three other shells buried themselves in the sands of the beach. No damage was done, but the impudent Prussian who thus hurled his shells on American soil has roiled the eagle and will get a swahm of eaglets after him as will make him regret his action. "The World do move." It seems but a short time tince General Crook was chasing the Apache chief, Cer onimo and Cachise over the deserts of Arizona, and now a company of these same Apaches is doing scouting ser vice with Pershing and chasing the Hun. Having be come partly civilized they realize their former foolishness and also the state of savagry of the Prussian, with whom they are doing laudable missionary work.

CHAPTER CXXXVI. To my delight, Mr. and Mrs. Bab cock were to visit us. That is, Mrs. Bab?ock was coining with her husband and they woulj spend the two days they were in town, with us. "Shall we give a little dinner for themf " I asked George as soon as we hoard that Mrs. Balncoct. was surely coming. " Ves a small one. We 'll ask Can field and his wife; the Hobcrts and and Gcruldine Koss- (enfiold and Hubert are on the board, and will appreciate meeting Mrs. liaibcock, nail you will feel more comfortable if we have Bert ami Ueraldine." "I certainly shall! What a nice par ty we will kive. Just ten of us. 1 will make out the menu ami let you aee it. What shall wo do tho first night f" "Nothing, I think. You must re member that Mr. and Mrs. Bnbcock are not ais young as you are. 1 think we will dine quietly, then have some music afterward. You can ask Mertou Gray to drop in and help out, if you like He might be willing-" "Certainly I will if you like," I replied, flushing a little as 1 always did when his name was mentioned. 1 often thought of Merton Gray find -his declaration of love for nie. 1 was so happy, that he had continued to be mj friend even after I had told him it was impossible for me to care for any ono save Georue. Yet, at times, I felt a sudden embarrassment when Georgo spoke of him. MERTON GRAY AC'EPTS. After George loft,! vailed Merton up "I am coiinr to ask a favor," I said after we had talked a moment, "It 'a already granted." "Mr. and Mrs. Batacock of Chicago, business friend of George's, are tn spend a couple of davs with us. They are very musical. Would it be asking too much for you to drop around, Wed nesday evening, and help mo entertain them? ' 4 ' No, indeed! I shall be delighted to do so. Shall I Ibriug my violin" "I'lease dot" Ever sinto I first met Merton Gray, hoi had liee-n so willing to do anything to givo me pleasure, that it is no won dor I liked him. That he was con sidered rather a lion, and that hostesses vied with.ealch other to secure mm at dinners or other social attairs, or coursa did not inake mo less pleased that he never refused my invitations. It would not have been natural. They were to arrivo in the morn ing, and 1 proposea tnai i go w i"u station in the ar and meet Mrs. Bab- coek. ! "He may want to go directly to the office with you, and it may please her to'havo mc meet her," I said. "It surely '' will, Goovgo replied. "Sho is just the kind to appreciate such an attention. That sho is so much older than you are, is all the tHoughtfulncss." AGAIN HELEN PLEASES HER HUSBAND. That was all George said about my offer to go to the station, but 1 knew liy his nianner that .1 had pleased him by proposing it. And, as always, wheu 1 knew I hud accomplished that dive seemingly impossible thing, I was happy. So l ' went singing about the hoiwe. consulting- the cook, talking with James about the service, and making up mv menu. 'l had determined to have a very simple dinner; the first night they came, when wo were to dine alone, but the next night, when we pave the dinner party, as finished a dinner as 1 could ipuaibly give. I fussed an hour in the guest, room, altho Annie always kept it in perfect order. I carried some little things from mv own boudoir to make it more homelike, and put a couple Of late magazines beside the reading llamp. Before I wen to the station the morn ing of their arrival, 1 would put fresh flowers in tho vases, and then it would be complete. I was verv proud of my beautiful home, nowaday. At first I had not cared so much for it, as it was asso ciated in mv mind with my efforts to be a social" success; with my failure to please George, with my need for instruction, and my rebellion. I had otten told Evelyn that I would rather live in a littlo' cottage and not be a society woman at ell, than to have my lovely home and have to be thinking all the time whether I ould live up to it. She -would laugh and tell me to wait a while that some day I would be pro! of my home proud to be its mistress. , , . She had ibeen right. I WAS proud of mv lovely home. It was neither quit 'so large nor ao elaborate as Mrs. BalKfoek's, ut it was delightfully com plete in every particular, thank to George. Mv servant wero well train ed, mv ook an unusually good one. So I had no worry on any score that of air own ability to prove i tertaining;' and to decide the menu. (To-morrow Mr. and Mrs. uuircw Arrive.) itr- Rzr ' KtM If n K !

Adhesive or stick ing plaster fastens a piece of mus lin covered with sticky substance to the skin, forms an adhesion with it, and when you pull it off, It hurts. Adhesions are evidences that there has been inflammation; they cause pain and they sometimes lea 1 to serious conditions. 1'su.illy, there must be two ad Joining surfaces. In order that there limy be adhesions; It Is possible, but not usual, for them to be on only one surface. An adhesion has two ends, by which it is attached, and it may be broad like a band or theet, or nar row like a string, its attachments" also being broad or narrow. Usually the broader and more ex tensive the adhesion, the more t .-cublesome will It be, but a nar row adhesion Is also capable of causing much disturbance. Adhesions are tissues of low or ganisation, and their tendency, aa t.me continues, is to shrink, eon-t.a-t, and get harder. " They may disappear entirely, or thjy may constrict and strangle the 1 . ts to which they are attached. They -may come at any period of lite to the unborn babe, and to tne who has reached extreme age. I have seen the Intestines of a very old person to restricted and tied down by them, that It would nem almost impossible for any thing to pass through toe Intestinal tuba. In any joint or cavity cl the tidy, there may be adhesions; they are most frequent In the cavi ties of the chest, the abdomen and the pelvis. The lining membrane of these cavities is called a "sercoa mem brane." but the cavities, like the mouth, which are lined, with muc tus membrane, Kay also hare ad-ucsijns. When there is Inflammation as sociated with a membrane, for in stance pleurisy in the chest and peritonitis In the abdomen, Us se cretion or lubricating product is in creased. As the inflammation progresses, this secretion becomes thicker and more sticky, aud finally glues and fastens adjacent surfaces together. In the chest cavity, such adhe sions may persist during life aa a constant witness of a previous in flammatory process, and as they may be stretched as the lung ex pands in breathing, they may cause more or less pain, Intermittently ' or constantly. In tho abdomen and pelvis (par ticularly -in women), they are also a frequent source of annoyance. It Is possible for the intestine te be so tinched by contracting ad hesions which have formed in one or many -places, that serious or even fatal consequences may result Sometimes one who has abdomi nal adhesions' may be relieved by massage;, sometimes a surgical operation may be necessary (es pecially if there is evidence of ob struction) to cut the offending bands. Constipation must be avoided, and an active life will be prefer able to a sedentary one. With regard to medicines.
