MARCH TO VICTORY
Courage is a matter of the blood.
\V ithout good red blood a man has a
weak heart and poor nerves.
In the spring is the bdfet time to
take stock of one's condition. If the
biood is thin and watery, face pale or
pimply, generally weak, tired and list
less, one should take a spring tonic.
One that will do the spring house¬
cleaning, an old-fashioned herbal rem¬
edy that was used by everybody nearly
50 years ago is still safe and sane be¬
cause it contains no alcohol or narcot¬
ic. It is made up of Blood root, Gold¬
en Seal root, Oregon Grape root,
Queen’s root, Stone root, Black Cherry
bark—extracted with glycerine and
made into liquid or tablets. This blood
tonic was first put out by Dr. Pierce
in ready-to-use form and since then
has been sold by million bottles ns Dr.
Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery. If
druggists do not keep this in tablet
form, send 60 cents for a vial to Dr.
Pierce’s Invalids’ Hotel, Buffalo, N. Y.
Kidney disease carries away a large
percentage of our people. What is to
be done? The answer is easy. Eat less
meat, eat coarse, plain food, with plenty
of vegetables, drink plenty of water
between meals, and take an uric acid
solvent after meals for a while, such as
Anuric (double strength), obtainable at
almost any drug store. It was first
discovered by Dr. Pierce. Most every
one troubled with uric acid finds that
Anuric dissolves the uric acid as hot
water does sugar. You can obtain a
trial package by sending ten cents to
Doctor Pierce’s Invalids’ Hotel and
Surgical Institute in Buffalo, N. Y.
Causes for Thankfulness.
Alan had played the entire day
with Little Brother without an impa¬
tient word. After saying his custom¬
ary prayer that night, his mother sug¬
gested that he add: “I thank God I
was not impatient with little brother
today.” This he did with much fer¬
vency ; after which ho remarked that
there were some other things he would
like^to thank God for, and forthwith
he closed his eyes and said:
“I thank God I offered my candy to
father before taking any myspif.
“I thank God I offered my candy to
mother before taking any myself.
"I thank God I offered my candy to
little brother before taking any my¬
self.
“And I thank God there was some
left.”
SKIN ERUPTIONS ON THE FACE
are unsightly and mar the appearance
of many a woman whose face would
be otherwise attractive. There is no
need for this. Just get a box of Tet
'terine and use it regularly and you will
be surprised how quickly pimples,
blotches, itchy patches, etc., disappear
and how soft and clear the skin be¬
comes. Nothing better for eczema and
other skin troubles than Tetterine,

BITTER FIGHTING
STILL CONTINUES
CHIEF GERMAN EFFORTS HAVE
BEEN IN THE REGION OF
MOREUIL AND ALBERT
FRENCH GAINJN THE OISE
Germans Are Evidently Expecting A
Counter Offensive Along The
Oise River
New York.—While the advance of
the German armies in Picardy has
come almost to a halt, there has been
severe fighting on the extreme west¬
ern edge of the battle zone.
Encounters in which large forces
have been engaged have occurred
north of Morueil, but there seems
to be no decided advantage gained
by the Teutonic invaders. They claim
to have taken heights and to have car¬
ried a wood in advance of tlieir line
near Morueil, but the British say they
have tiriven hack, the enemy from po¬
sitions they have occupied elsewhere
in this sector v
The French lines farther south have
stood firm against savege assaults,
especially in the region of Montdidier
and eastward of that place along a
part of the line which was subjected
to a terrific strain for two days late
last week.
In a number of sectors the French
have surged forward and taken hard
earned ground from the Germans and
have established their line solidly
along the Oise river. The expected
allies counter offensive has not yet
come, but the Germans, who are re¬
ported to be entrenching along the
French front, evidently expect it
there.
U. S. ENGINEERS PLAY
HEROIC PART IN THE
FIGHT AGAINST TEUTONS
Gallant Band Of 1,500 Hold Line 1,200
Yards Long In Face Of Fiercest
German Onslaughts
With the British Army in France.—
It is now possible to tell of a spectac¬
ular feature of a briliant British de¬
fense below the Somme. It is the
story of a little army composed very
largely of assortments of troops who
were hastily assembled in a great cri¬
sis and who successfully held a vital
•tratcli of the front against furious
German onslaughts until reinforce¬
ments could arrive. In this gallant
force were included American railway
engineers who, as in the battle of
Cambrai, last November, threw aside
their tools and took up arms in de¬
fense of the allied colors.
It was at a critical moment when
it was absolutely necessary that more
troops should be thrown into the Brit¬
ish line to hold the onrush of the Ger¬
mans. Reinforcements were on the
way, but could not arrive in time.
There was no time to lose and a cer¬
tain general immediately organized a
force collected from the various units
nearby in which were the Americans.
Fifteen hundred followed the lead
of their dashing brigadier out into the
swirling battle line where they were
strung over a front of 1,200 yards
against which hordes of Germans
were flung.
It seems almost inconceivable that
these defenders, brave unto death
though they were, could have been
able to hold that long sector, but they
held. The enemy advanced in force
and hurled themselves time and time
again against the British line in this
region, but they found no weak spot.
This composite force stood as gallantly
to the right and to the left. They
clung on for many hours until the
regulars came up. This is a sample
of the fighting spirit which allied sol¬
diers are showing in this time of
stress. spectacular,
This incident is more
but hardlv finer in spirit, than that of
seven British soldiers. These lads had
been home in England on leave, and
on landing at a channel port in
France could find no transportation
to the front. Did they sit down and
wait’ They did not. They tramped
almost every foot of the way to the
I battle lines to take their places be
I s ide their hard-pressed comrades.
i German Losses Reach 300,000 Men
Washington.—A French official esti¬
mate of the German losses in the great
battle on the western front puts their
total casualties at between 275,000
and 300,000 men. The Germans are
sending most of their wounded to Bel¬
gium, it is declared, to conceal from
the German people their heavy sacri¬
fices. It has been possible to identify,
the dispatch says, nearly 100 German
divisions, more than ten of which were
twice engaged. Some of the divisions,
it is declared, had to be relieved at
the end of the first day.
The Death , Penalty For Espionage
Washington.—The death penalty for
many acts of espionage will be pro¬
posed in legislation to be brought be¬
fore congress. Senator Overman of
North Carolina, active head of the
senate judiciary committee, said after
hearing testimony of several govern¬
ment agents in charge of anti-spy
work. The sub-committee also ap¬
proved an amendment to the espion¬
age law penalizing “attempts” to ob¬
struct the selective draft law, as well
as actual obstruction.

Every mother realizes, after giving
her children “California Syrup of
Figs,” that this is their ideal laxative/
because they love its pleasant taste,
and it thoroughly cleanses the tender
little stomach, liver and bowels with¬
out griping.
When cross, irritable, feverish, or
breath is bad, stomach sour, look at'
the tongue, Mother.! If coated, give
a teaspoonful of this harmless “fruit
laxative,” and in a few hours all the
foul, constipated waste, sour bile and
undigested food passes out of tRe bow¬
els, and you have a well, playful child
again. When the little system is full of
cold, throat sore, has stomach-ache, di¬
arrhoea, indigestion, colic—remember,
a good “inside cleansing” should al¬
ways he the first treatment given.
Millions of mothers keep “California
Syrup of Figs” handy; they know a
teaspoonful today saves a sick child
to-morrow. Ask your druggist for a
bottle of “California Syrup of Figs,”
which has directions for babies, chil¬
dren of all ages and grown-ups-printed
on the bottle. Beware of counterfeits
