Recovery of Assistant Chief Press

DISCQVERY 1S PRAISED
Yirst Assistant Chief R, H. Press

today I can truly say that I consider
it ‘'the finest medicine on earth. I
suffered two years with one of the
worst cases of rheumatism you ever
saw, 1 also had kidney and blood
trouble, and my limbs were dread
fully swollen, my feet were so much
#o until sometimes I couldn't lace up
my shoes. My stomach was ali bloat
ed and I simply felt awful. My con
dition finally got so bad 1 had to take
20 the hed.
*I have taken five bottles of Vi
ftona and am now perfectly well. I
&m no longer bloated, my limbs and
feet are not swollen and I haven't a
alfl of my old troubles. My blood
is perfect condition and I feel just
fine.”
That's what they all say, Not a
pingle exception.
VITONA NEVER FATILS.
You talk about “Hitting the trail”
edust watch the crowds hitting the
#idewalks that lead to E. H. Cone's
#tores. They are going there to in
yestigate Vitona, and when they go
away they take a bottle.
Vitona is on sale at any of E. H.

Privates in France Find Them
selves Center of Young
y '
Women's Attention,
SBOMEWHERE IN FRANCE, Nov. 28
A mew word has been put into the Eng
lish language. It is “mug’’ (verb tran
gitive). When an American has been
kissed by a Frenchman now.he says he
has been ‘“‘mugged.” It is the first
‘A_men(‘an colloquialism of the war. The
‘!-,nglish have “over the top"” and a doz
en other words and phrases.
‘ As the Frenchman who plants a kiss
on the cheeks of the private {s usually
‘of the hirsute variety, he is tactfully
‘avolded, if possible. A soldier is going
idown the street, He meets another who
warns him that “‘an old guy down in the
‘next block ‘mugged’ me.”” It is the
‘ulgrnal for a detour.
} he only embarrassment to those ex
‘curslnnfl is the amazing frankness with
lwhl(‘h the French ask questions.
““Apres la guerre?”’ they ask. *‘Will
you marry here?"’
: This is a burning question just now,
and the girls, or many of them, never
miss an opportunity to signify they
have “no flance."”
| Restrictions on Nurses.
The French girls are the only ones
left for the association of the American
now. Where I am stationed there are
100 nurses. Also there is Indignation.
Business is slack in the nurang line
now and the young ladies have some
idle time on their hands. Once they
were accustomed to see the surround
ing country with a soldier as escort,
Then came an order that they should
not assoclate with enlisted men, 8o it
devolved upon the officers. And now
comes an order from headquarters that
the{ shall no more be seen outside any
mfl‘:ary post with any soldler of any
rank.
But this means nothing to me. What
are nurses in my young life when a
hundred pairs of black eyes are twin
kling wherever I go? This twinkling
has made me happy to be a private. For
an officer is out of luck.
Luck All With Privates.
An enlisted man may go down the
street, smile at every gnlr of that hun
dred, pass the time of day, ‘‘promenade’
with one or a dozen, laugh, gigglv. ac
cept a cookle, conjugate verbs or hold
hands. He can ‘‘be seen’’ most any
place—lnvestigate every quaint corner
and every unusual wine shop, But an
officer can not. Thé regulations that
he be always a gentleman imply that
he must also be proper. He must not
return a smile to admiring glances.
If a demoiselle says “Bon Soir'" from
the top of a six-foot wall the private
may "gon soir’” back again, or for that
matter, Investigate what is behind the
wall, But an officer, never. Dignity
simply doesn't fit in with the French
hilosophy. That is all, There are only
{jwo essentials to the life of the French
man—laughter and wine. He can live
without anything else, butter, sugar,
even bread itself.
No American wants for attention here
It comes voluntarily. The Frenchman.
back from the war, or on leave, adver
tises for a dinner fmrtner. The Parisian
magazines are full of them. Or he may
advertise for a young lady to send him
written encouragement in the trenches
“Young sublieutenant,” these ads will
read, ‘‘convalescent in the ———— Hos-
Flul. wants to correspond with young
{ady, chic, beautiful, delicate.”
~ There is only one instance of where
an American advertised. And then he
‘dldn’'t do it. His friends did it for a
joke. tlls ‘mall was so large for the
next two weeks that the regimental
ipoc?omce couldn't handle it.
A Personal
Word to Our Readers
The Georgian and American do not print doubtful
financial announcements to fleece our readers and our
community of thousands of dollars annually; question
able medical and obscene advertisements to offend the
refinement of your home; fortune teller, spiritualistic, mat
rimonial and clairvoyant announcements which lure the
gullible, and similar advertisements for which we could
secure, literally, thousands of dollars each year if we were
willing to place the dollar mark above your respect and
confidence, and higher than our duty to our community.
Neither will you find sordid stories featured in a sala
cious manner in The Daily Georgian and Sunday Amer
ican. These “newspapers of the Home" print all the news
that’s fit to print and emphasize all that is clean, bright and
wholesome in their news columns. Both the news and
the advertising columns of “The South's Greatest News
papers’” endeavor to reflect The Georgian's standard—
“A clean, wholesome newspaper for Southern Homes,"
and emphasize the principles for which we are constantly
striving—Truth, Justice, Public Service.

i Winter in Arctic
(By International News Service.)
PORTLAND, OREG., .. -.~—Vilhjal
mur Stefansson, arctic explorer and dis.
coverer of the blind Eskimo, must spend
the winter in the Banks Land country,
according to A, L. Liebes, a fur buyer of
1 San Francisco, who recently arrived here
en route home from a season spent in
the arctic, |
“Our expedition had mall for the Ste
fansson party and others to the east
ward of them,” sald Liebes, "but we
could not reach them or find natives
who could tell us how to get there.
There was no news from Stefansson in
the country where we were., Our ves
sel could not make its way east of Balil
e Islands, 220 miles east of Herschel Is
land.
“It is not known in (h&north whether
Stefansson will stay in Banks Land for
the winter or whether he is attempting
to force his way through the northwara
passage.
‘“The take of furs this season was
light. Unusual conditions seem to pre
vail in the North. It is an off year on
both the American and Siberian coasts.
Foxes are sald to be 76 per cent short
and the natives lack food because of
the scarcity of game."

SPOKANE, WASH., Nov. 28—No more
is the married man of Washington ab
solute head of the family., He shares
that post with the wife of his heart, so
far as the disposal of community per:
sonal property is concerned. Man was
demoted from his high estate and his
authority curtailed by a recent decision
of the State Supreme Court, which held
the ““Mrs."”” of the household has an
equal share in the personal property and
must be consulted before it can be
transferred
The decision was rendered in the casc
of a man named Steel, who was found
guilty of alienating the affections of an
other man's wife. Judgment was ren
dered against him and the question of
using community property to satisfy the
debt was brought before the tribunal.
Chief Justice Ellis, with the concur
rence of six associate judges, reversed
former decislons which have been the
basis of law on this point for twenty
years or more in the State, and held
that the community personal property
