COST TEN MILLIOX LIVES. The greatest war in history ended Monday morning. November 1 1, at 6 o'clock, Washington time, after l,5t7 djys of horror, during which virtually the whole civilized world has been convulsed. Announcement of the tremendous event w;is made at the State De partment at Washington, at 2:45 o'clock Monday morning, and in a few seconds was flashed throughout the continent by trie Associated Press. The terse announcement of the Sute Department did not tell any thing of the scene at Marshal Hoch's headquarters at the time the ar mistice was signed. It was stated, however, that at Hve o'clock Paris time, the signatures of Germany's delegates were affixed to the docu ument which blasted forever the dreams which embroiled the world in a struggle which cost, at the very lowest estimate, 1 0,000,000 lives. It is suggested that William Hoheiuollern is not safe from the conse quences of his deed, even though he h.is fled to Holland. After the sinking ol the l.usiunia and during the early days of the aerial raids on London he was three tunes indicted international law, it is said, requisition by England under the indictments still WELDDN AVIATOR'S FIRST FLIGHT Monday, Nov. 4, 1918. This evening at one o'clock I started on my first ride. 1 lud on my flying pajamas, helmet wuh u talking tube connecting my eir to the instructor's mouth, and my goggles nil fixed up nicely. Al ter examining our ship the Lieu tenant and I crawled in Then the mechanic runs in the front ol the ship and sas, "oft," ih.it is, that the ignition is off, so he cm spin the propeller thus tilling me cylinders with a vaporized mix ture of gas, so the engine will start easily. He spins it several times then says, "contact." The Lieu tenant says "contaci" and turns on the ignition. The mechanic then spins the propeller and the engine starts. Now came the ex citing moment, the engine was warming up and 1 was adjusting myself and hooking my lite bell, which is a large belt attached to the scat and holds you in very lightly. Before I knew it we were "taxing" down the field. "Tax ing" is goingalong the ground, run ning on the rubber tires. We went a little faster, then fasterand faster, until we had enough speed so that th e reaction of the air on the wings was greater than the weight of the machine, thus raising our ship off the ground. We were going at the rate of about CO miles per hour w hen we lift the ground audit was so smooth and easy that it seemed more or less like a dream to me except the continual hum and noise of our motor. Here we started climbing higher and higher, all the lime circling the flying field. It was a wonderful feeling to be up in the heavens sailing through nothing but space with no mud holes to dodge nor tires to look out for. After getting about 2,000 feet up we turned toward Ameri cus which was Hve miles away and almost before I knew it we were right on top of the Georgia peach city. My instructor with a little sense of humor asked me if warn ed to stop here and see my girl. Over the city we went exactly 2,700 feet and did a spiril and a loop. I thought I was a real bird then sure enough. Then he be gan circling about, diving, etc , to show me the effect of ihe rudder, ailerons and elevators. The rudder is the control that turns the ship ibout its vertical axis, like the wheel on an auto; the ailerons, which are on the wins control the machine laterally, i. e. from tip to tip; and the elevators control it longitudinally. The only differ ence between the controls of in auto and plane is that the plane ..- - it , '..Hi ail ffi-utnii.t il to me as : whiih it. f.uivly pro7t;ii symptoms have ri" -A" LYDIA C RNKH for murder in England. Under tor his extradition may be made standing against him. has three axes to control and the auio has only one. All this detail explanation may seem rather dry, but it gives you an idea of the prin ciples of aeronautics. Afier being in the air a halt an hour we nosed down and made a pretty landing on the field. I forgot to tell you that the town looked likea little doll village, the roads of redelay show ed up very plainly like red ribbon and ihe fields and woods looked as if they had been drawn by an ex pert drattsman. At about 2,000 feet the railroad looked about two inches wide and everything was beautiful. 1 noticed when we got over Americus the very house m which we took dinner yesterday and wished for some more of that good turkey and oysters. My instructor is Lieut. Stout and a very nice gentleman. I am glad I drew a good instructor, for it means a lot. All this week I fly in the even ings and have five hours of classes in the mornings. This morning after a three hour class with the Lewis airplane gun, the gun in siructor appointed me gun instruc tor to teach when he was away. 1 took that to be rather nice, but 1 had rather they wouldn't keep me after 1 get my commission, but send me to the other side.

Avoid crowds, coughs and cowards, bat fear neither germs nor Germans I Keep the system ia good order, take plenty ol exercise iu the fresh air and practice cleanliness. Remember a clean month, a clean skin, and clean bowels are a protecting armour against disease. To keep the liver and bowels regular and to carry away the poisons within, it ia best to take a vegetable pill every other day, made up of May-apple, aloes, Jalap, and sugar-coated, to be had at most drug stores, known as Dr. Pierce'a Pleasant Pcllcta. It there is a sudden onset ol what appears like a hard cold, one should go to bed, wrap warm, takfl a hot mustard toot-hmh amf drink copi ously ol hot lemonade. If pain develop! In head or back, ask the druggist lor Anurio ( anti-uric ) tablets. These will flush the bladder and kidneys and carry oil poisonous germs. To control tbo pains and aches take one Anuria tablet every two hours, with frequent drinks ol lemonade. The pneumonia appears in a most treacherous way, when the innu enta victim is apparently recovering and anxious to leave his bed. In recovering Irom a bad attack ol influenza or pneu monia the system should be built up with a good herbal tonio, such as Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, made without alcohol from the roots and barka ol American forest trees, or hia Irontia (iron tonic) tablets, which can be ob talned at saoat drug stores, or send 10c. to Dr. Pierce'a Invalids' Hotel, MufUlo.

The sad news has reached us that William W. Hriekell. the eldest son of Mr H. Brickell and his wife. Mrs. Irene .Moselcy Brickell, was so badly wounded inaction in France, on ihe 1 7 rh day of Octo ber last, that he died in a short lime afier reaching the hospital . er there. This is another death at brings the war very close to us. Hilly Brickell, as all of us knew him, was thirty-three years old October the 6th, 1918. He was a member of Company L:. Iltlih Intantry of the American Lxpedi- lionary Porces in Prance. U'hile the great mass of our peo ple have suffered little inconve nience by reason of the war, and while many have actually grown richer and richer by reason of con ditions which it has brought about, this young man, the hope of his parents and iheprideof his friends, has paid in full and to the limit, the debt of a soldier. In hours like iliis, one stumbles over the ways of Providence until the thought is borne upon us that it is not how long a man lives, but how well he lives. Measuring this young sol dier by that standard, his life was as full and well rounded as if he had lived out a man's allotted time. He has given the full measure of a patriot to a cause that is just as holy as any for which men ever sirove. When we come to think who he was, on both sides of his ancestry, ihere will be no surprise that he was not afraid on ihe battlefield. He was a type of our best stock. The older citizens will remember his grandfather, whose name he bore, Mr. Uilliam W. Brickell, whose life waS another name for uprigntness, integrity and dignity, and whose sons had a part in the Civil war, more ihan fifty years ago. So when his country called last year, every one knew that there would be Brickells in the line. It was our fortune to know him from his youth. He was of hand some face, splendid figure and had a disposition of the gentlest ele ments. His life was quiet and he was one of the props to his parents as the shadow of age began to creep upon them. His education was in the schools of the county and at Buie's Creek Academy. While ihere he made a profession of faith and united with the Baptist church. His con duct was consistent and exempla ry, he was faithful to his religious duiies, and he adorned the life which he lived, devoted tn his father and mother, sisters and brothers, and their friends every where would wish that they might share this burden that has come upon them. And when the end came, what more can any one wish ? He died not in the glare of public life, but as a private soldier, safe in the salvation for which his Saviour died. His name is on the Honor Roll of his country and he belongs to the ages just as truly as if he had been among those who lead instead of among those who followed. It will be a loving duty of those who remained at home to keeD in tender memory the name of Wil liam W. Brickell. His father and mother have been greatly honored when this vounu soldier wx re counted worthy to have made the supreme sacrifice. An average woman doesn't care anything about the silver linings of clouds if only her own gowns is silk lined. Lots of Folks who come into the world with neither wealth nor in telligence manage to hold their own from start to finish. HA'.im U. D. C. Mi-EriNG. , The regul ; mn-thly m"-,;n; of I t:ie I' li C .
