C,
THE RUSSIAN COLLAPSE.
The Russian collapse has been
expected for many months, and
was no surprise when it came.
While Russia may not be of any
more help to the Allies, we should
not forget the fact that Russia has
struck some powerful blows
against Germany and Austria.
When Germany found she could
not take Paris in 1914, she then
turned her millions against Russia
and was continually attacking her
from Nov. 1, 1914, until Sept. 1,
1915. Russia was then strong
and well supplied with ammunition
and the way she slaughtered Ger
mans appalled even old General
Hindenburg. It is reported that
over two million Germans were
killed, and one million permanently
disabled and about a million were
captured. So these heavy blows
that Russia struck will make the
task of Great Britain, France, Italy
and the United States very much
easier than it would have been.
There is a way in which you may
legitimately capitalize the war—
buy liberty bonds.
The President has raised the
price of wheat. It’s now up to the
farmers to raise the wheat.
What a happy world this will be
when Washington's birthday be
comes an international festival.
The firing squad would soon
give the spies the “fool's peace"
they are trying to impose on others.
Until we deny ourselves some
thing we are not doing much toward
conserving food to help win the
war. _
V/hat Bill Hornswallerin can't
understand is why the allies hav
en't had enough war! He’s had
enough. _
American boys are dying for
their country. Surely you can
save for it. Buy War Savings
Stamps. _
Belgium may take it as a high
compliment that the Germans feel
they can shoot anyone of the citi
zens and get a patriot.
One purpose of a war seems to
be to give a lot of usually idle and
useless people a chance to get in
the way of busy and useful ones.
. One man “denounces” the Kaiser
and ahother “evokes the wrath of
heaven upon the Hun,” but the on
ly way to win this war is to pitch in
and fight.

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured
by local application*, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There
is only one way to cure catarrhal deafness,
and that is by a constitutional remedy.
Catarrhal Deafness is caused by an in
flamed condition of the mucous lining of
the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
inflamed you have a rumbling sound or
Imperfect hearing, and when it Is entirely
closed. Deafness is the result. Unless the
Inflammation can be reduced and this tube
restored to its normal condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever. Many cases of
deafness are caused by catarrh, which is
an inflamed condition of the mucous sur
faces. Hall's Catarrh Cure acts thru the
blood on the mucous surfaces of the sys
tem.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Catarrhal Deafness that cannot
be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Circulars
free. All Druggists. 75c.

JAPAN’S SHIPBUILDING.
Nowhere, perhaps, is the effect of
the war upon Japan more patent
than in her great naval yards at
Yokosuka; nowhere does* the
strength and magnitude of her ambi- 1
tions find more cogent demonstra
tion. The possessors of an island em
pire, the statesmen of Japan have (
not been slow to recognize the value
of a strong navy and a powerful and
: numerous mercantile marine. Un
der a system of shipbuilding and
shiprunning bounties, her merchant
shipping has made huge strides; and
the advocates of state aid, in return,
under certain circumstances for
state control, may point confidently
to the successful transportation of
troops in time of war in justification
of their policy.—New York Tele
