The Long Expected European
Conflagration Is Almost
Ready to Occur
By GEORGES CLEMENCEAU, French Statesman
]T IS MY BELIEF THAT THE LONG EX
PECTED EUROPEAN CONFLAGRATION WILL
Jl OCCUR WITHIN A SHORT TIME, AND THE
french' nation should feel ready.
It is therefore necessary that in France there should be NO DE
LAY in putting the three year military law into operation.
It is obvious we have to count on quality even with the th» ? year
military service. Germany now has eight hundred thousand m< on a
peace footing. The new law will bring France up to six hund d and
fifty thousand. Yet gven then France is in the minority.
Turning to the reserves, Germany has four million three hunc" d and
seventy thousand men against France's three million nine hund. i and
seventy-eight thousand. This leaves France in a minority of fou. hun
dred thousand men.
It is true the African soldier can be brought to Europe to fight for
France. The Senegalians make good soldiers. They are naturally war
like and bear hardships of all kinds. The French Sudan supplies the
majority of our black soldiers.
Austria is raising its army from four hundred and two thousand to
five hundred and two thousand men on a peace footing.
An outlay of FIVE HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS HAS
BEEN MADE BY THE GREAT POWERS FOR ARMY IN
CREASE. Germany adds two hundred thousand men, France one hun
dred and sixty thousand, Russia one hundred thousand and Austria one
hundred thousand. So the strength stands relatively where it was,
leaving France numerically inferior, but not dangerously so.
The extraordinary military activities of the powers only tell one
thing, and that is WAR, which seems INEVITABLE.

Lindsay, Mont. — "I started to get great
big blotches round my neck and I did not
think very much about it at first, but they
commenced getting worso ali the timo and
such an intense itching, it novor gave mo a
minute's rest. The pimples were rod and
would swell. From itching, and scratching
them ho it caused them to spread; there
would be sores from scratching them so
Intensely. My faco and neck wero covered
with pimples. It lookod as if my wholo
face was in one solid rash or sore, and I was
nearly crazy with itching and burning. At
night they would bo very bad 90 I hardly
could sleop. My face was, I must say, in
ono raw sore. I nearly gave up alt hopes of
over getting like myself.
"I bought a few bottles of some good blood
modlcine but without help. My poor face
did not got any better. 1 had heard so much
about Cuticura Soap and Ointment I
thought I would try thom. So I bought one
cako of Cuticura Soap and ono box of Cuti
cura Ointment and started to use them and
followed tho directions as closely as I could
To my surprlso only a few application;
stopped tho Itching and scratching and It
a ample of weeks' timo my faco was noarly
well. I kept on using tho Cuticura Soap
and Ointment and In two months' time I
wan completely cured." (Signed) Mrs
