MOTHER! IF MS
TONGUE IS GOHTED
If cross, feverish, constipated,
give “California Syrup of
Figs.”
A laxutiw today saves a sick child
tomorrow. Children simply will not
take the time from play to empty their
bowels, which become clogged up with
waste, liver gets sluggish, stomach
sour.
Look at the tongue. Mother! If coat
ed, or your child is listless, cross, fever
ish, breath bad. restless, doesn’t eat
heartily, full of cold or has sore throat
or any other children's ailment, give a
teaspoonful of “California Syrup of
Figs.” then don’t worry, because it is
perfectly harmless, and in a few hours
all this constipation poison, sour bile
and fermenting waste will gently move
out of the bowels, and you have a well,
playful child again. A thorough "in
side cleansing" is ofttmes all that is
necessary. It should be the first treat
ment given in any sickness.
Beware of counterfeit fig syrups. Ask
your druggist for a bottle of “California
Syrup of Figs.” which has full direc
tions for babies, children of all ages
and for grown-ups plainly printed on
the bottle. IxK>k carefully and see
that it is made by the “California Fig
Syrup Company.”—(Advt.)

THIRD LIBERTY IDIN
WILL START APRIL I
Postponement Caused by Con
| ’ gestion, Fuel Shortage
and Bad Weather
WASHINGTON, Feb. 20.—Subnormal
i economic and business conditions
I brought about by a variety of unfore
seen war developments, has caused post
ponement of the third Liberty loan un
til about April 1.
Originally set for February 15, it was
stated on high authority today, the is
sue—after conferences of high govern
ment heads—has been held up until a
restoration of normal conditions shall
have brought a more “receptive market.”
That the loan when finally placed for
sale will bear 4 1-2 per cent interest ap
peared probable today. Intense opposi
tion of large banking interests to at
tempting to sell from three to six bil
lions of bonds which it is expected the
loan will carry - , was believed today to be
forcing the hand of the government.
These causes brought the delay in the
loan:
First. The unprecedented transpor
i tation tie-iip. Produ< - unable to
j move their products, su' ered vast loss
l es. General congestion cu commerce too
' operated to work a general money strin-
I gency.
Second. Fuel shortage, with a five
1 day suspension of industry, and six
' workless Mondays. Labor suffered heav
ily in loss of wages; manufacturers suf-
I sered. all shippers suffered as the right
of way was given to coal and other ship
ments laid on sidings.
Third. Unexampled bad weather. Two
thirds of the "congregational element,”
according to Liberty loan headquarters
was lacking during February. People
j stayed indoors, there was a minimum of
I mingling In public places. Open air
j speeches and even Indoor gatherings
■ would have been sparsely attended
Price Enters Race to
Succeed Roscoe Peacock
Senator Hugh Price, of the Twenty
seventh state senatorial district, has
announced himself a candidate for
president pro-tem of the Georgia senate
to succeed Roscoe Peacock, who resign

military service.
Senator Price is one of the best liked
men the senate has had in years. Young,
affable, able and conscientious in the
performance of his official duties, he
made a host of friends at the last ses

EUROPE IS FILLED
WITH WAR CRISIS
AND UNCERTAINTY
Austro-German Relations Are
Strained and Contending
Forces Expect Great Blow in
West
NEW YORK, Feb. 20—Europe has
suddenly become filled with tense crisis,
that may at any moment change the
complexion of the war from its present
comparative passivity and bring about
final mastery. The relations between
Germany and Austria are strained as
they have been at no other time since
the war began; the contending forces
along the west front are on the tip toe
of expectancy for the delivery of a
giant blow; the allies themselves are
just passing through the final phase of
a critical situation concerning the au
thority of the Versailles war council,
and Russia is revealing an internal sit
uation of growing confusion that may
turn out to be the greatest crisis of all.
At no previous period of the war has
there been so intense a feeling of gen
eral suspense as now exists. It is as
if an instinctive belief had begun to
circulate that the early days of spring
were preparing the ground for civiliza
tion’s supreme crisis.
The critical situation in Russia,
which is the most spectacular for tne
moment, must be judged with extreme
caution. The “willingness” of the Bol
shevik! to sign a German peace, and
the announced intention of Lenine and
Trotzky to “reply to the German de
ipanfs are coupled with definite state
m*nta In Petrograd that de-tnobiliza
tion of the army and navy had been
stopped and that orders have been given
to resist the German advance.
After the moral victory won by the
Bolsheviki at Brest-Litovsk, the pres
ent new peace program so suddenly an
nounced, may turn out to be only a
temporary measure, dictated by a crisis
within the Bolsheviki circle of leaders
that has no lasting significance.
But whether this be true or not, von
Hindenburg can put no trust in the
permanence of any peace signed at
Petrograd while the war continues in
the west. The era of crisis now rife
throughout Europe will be particularly
liable to explosive tendencies in Rus
sia until the war ends on all fronts.
Von Hindenburg's situation today is
no less disquieting than it was yes
terday.

Secretary Praises Work of
Americans on Firing Line
and Reviews Operations of
the Various War Fronts
WASHINGTON, Feb. 20.—After exten
sive preparations silently and systemat
ically carried on, it is apparent that
both the • Germans and tne allies art
ready for the long expected offensive in
the west, says Secretary Baker today
in his review of military operations for
the week ending February 16.
“While there have been outwardly no
new developments in the military situa-
I tion in the west during the period un
der review.” says the secretary’s com
munique, “yet it is apparent that both
the enemy and the allies, after extensive
preparations which have been silently
and systematically carried on, are ready
for battle.
“The Germans have recently with
drawn a number of their veteran west
front units from the first line trenches
and are busy training them in mobile
warfare.
"According to advices received, the
German general staff hopes that by
massing a large number of these pick
ed shock battlaions which have been in
tensively trained, they may deliver a
smashing blow.
Numbers Are Untrained
“The bulk of the German forces are
now assembled in the west. But a large
number of these units are wholly un
trained in the method of the western
front warfare which differs radically
from that conducted along other fronts.
Furthermore, the German higher com
mand realizes fully that their forces
will meet wl!*h far more difficult tacti
cal obstacles than any hitherto en
countered by an attacking army. A
break through was possible in Russia
only after the morale of the Russians
had been undermined; the same was
true in Italy, and w - e witnessed how
speedily the Italian line was mended.
“During the week there has been
i much activity of a minor character
l along the entire western front.
"As lias already been announced, In
Lorraine a segment of the line is en
tirely under the control of our forces
Along our front, patrol encounters are
numerous. The Germans undertook a
raid against our positions and succeed
ed in inflicting a few casualties. A small
American patrol, while scouting tn No
Man’s Land, was ambushed by the en
emy. i
"The weather was very rainy during
the first part of the week and our troops
■ were busy manning the pumps in an es
, fort to keep their trenches dry. Later
I clear weather prevailed and hostile air
i .craft made frequent flights to recon
noitre our positions. A marked Improve
I ment in anti-aircraft barrage is reported
; Artillery duels took place and the Ger
; mans showered our lines with gas shells,
which, however, caused no casualties.
' owing to efficient gas mask protection
i "In Champagne, units of American
artillery participated in an engagement
I undertaken by French forces. This op
eration was the most Important of the
j week In the west. After very careful
artillery preparation, during which our
I batteries co-operated usefully, French
; infantry advanced to the assault south
| west of the Butte du Meant, along a
front of about 1,400 yards. The French
succeeded in penetrating the German
positions, broke through the second, and
reached the third German line. During
this brisK attack the French destroyed
many enemy shelters, inflicted much
damage to enemy positions, besidep
bringing back 150 prisoners.
"Other successful raids were under
taken by French detachments In the
vicinity of the Chemin des Dames, east
of Rheims, in upper Alsace, and else
where. In all the French drove forward
twelve very fortunate reconnaissance
undertakings along different parts of the
1 line.
“German units were also active. Their
attempts to reach the French lines were
temporarily successful in the vicinity
of Bezonvaux and in Alsace. However,
-’even German raids at various other
points broke down French artillery kept
the enemy constantly engaged along a
I widely scattered area.
On the British Front
I “The British front was also the scene
of numerous minor engagements. No im
portant actions took place, and the ene
my, wno was evidently busy with the
grouping of units and disposing fresh
forces recently arrived from other thea
ters, in the front line undertook only
such reconnoitering engagements as to
familiarize the new units with the na
ture of the terrain In front of them.
"In the Italian theater the enemy has
again assumed an aggressive attitude.
“The concentration of an important
body of German cavalry in the vicinity
of Riga is noted and it is believed that
the Germans may find it expedient to
advance on Petrograd. It is difficult to
determine the exact status of affairs in
southwestern Russia. The Russian con
tingents are evacuating the Armenian
centers south of the Black sea which
are being reoccupied by Turkish de
; tachments. Trebizond will probably soon
fall into Turkish hands.
"it is important to record that large
contingents of Arabs are joining the
forces of the Sheik of Mecca who is co-
' operating with the British.
"The Arabs have defeated the Turks
tn two encounters, occupied El Mazreh.

Sentry Sees Germans in No
Man’s Land and Gives
Alarm
WITH .THE AMERICAN ARMIES JN
FRANCE, Feb. 19.—(Delayed.)—A Ger
man airplane, after being beaten off
twice this afternoon, flew over the
American field hospital which had been
bombed twice In the last few days. The
Boche aviator, however, dropped no
bombs.
A Michigan soldier, who was serious
ly wounded in the jaw by a stray Ger
man shell and several other wounded
Sammies have been transferred from
this field hospital to the rear, where they
are reported doing well.
The weather continues spring-like and
there is considerable aerial activity over
this sector.
The Sammies believed today they had
obtained at least partial revenge for the
recent ambuscade of one of «their pa
trols, with the resultant death of five
men. An American sentry sighted two
Germans in the darkness of No Man’s
Land last night. His challenge was
artsewred with a shot. Rifle and ma
chine gun fire began to pour from the
American trenches. In response to a
signal the artillery laid down a barrage
between the concealed German patrol
and its trenches.

been lying in wait for an American pa-
The Kind You Have Always Bought.
THIS is the caution applied to the public announcement of Castoria that has
1 been manufactured under the supervision of Chas. H. Fletcher for over
30 years—the genuine Castoria. We respectfully call the attention of fathers and
mothers when purchasing Castoria to see that the wrapper bears his signature in
black. When tie wrapper is removed the same signature appears on noth sides
ofthe bottle in red. Parents who have used Castoria for their little ones in the
past years need no warning against counterfeits and imitations, but our present
duty is to call the attention of tne younger generation to the great danger of intro
ducing into their families spurious medicines.
It is to be regretted that there are people who are now engaged in the
nefarious business of putting up and selling all sorts of substitutes, or what should
more properly be termed counterfeits, for medicinal preparations not only for
adults, but worse yet, for children’s medicines. It therefore devolves on the mother
to scrutinize closely what she gives her child. Adults can do that for themselves
but the child has to rely on the mother’s watchfulness.
