I often hear a fellow say, when pointing to a neighbor, "l really thing that idle jay should do some useful la bor. He tramps the village selling books, and boring thus his betters; . and in these times of war, gadzooks, we have small use for letters. He ought to beg or steal or hoe, and work out his salvation, and make a hill of spinach grow, to help feed the na tion." Perhaps the neighbor's wear ing bells, as on his path he's drifting; perhaps the clothbound books he sells are loyal and uplifting. It well may chance his hopeful tomes inspire some husky critter to go and cleave some Teuton domes, And make the kaiser i bitter. I've never found it safe or 1 sane to judge the other fellow, to say his motives all are in vain, or that his course is yellow. We all cant la bor with our hands, with energy un tiring; we can't hew the wood or till the lands, or keep the forge fires burning. For some must clerk and some must preach, or run the railway station, and some must take their clubs and teach the rising generation. The doctor cannot leave his sick who look to him for healinr. because soma loud offensive hick of slackers still Is An Unenviable Record of Misery Due spieling.

In a few days we shall make another announcement to present the matter as it is being worked out. ardlv thing called Prussianism and leave the workl chance to recover, the wound to heal and ttie race of men to repent to high heaven for the past four years.

T':)s news from , over, there grows better with each import? The forces of General Foch are giving the Huns no time toi stop, catch their breath and reorganize for anyjcounter flttuck. The off icers iri vomniand do not know what to do or expect and the general staff has not been given time to form a policy for meeting successfully the onslaughts of the allied troops. Per haps they cannot do this, but certain ly they cannot ao long as Fooh hits them unmercifully from every angle, j The Prussian command ihad not count ! en on this, and the soldiers only knew how to run over the opposition. With the tide turned, with the shoe on the other foot the Huns are puzzled as well as licied. May 'the day soon be at h'and when the allies may tgive them a blow that will cripple for all time the strength of this fighting machine that has done quite enough to a wounded world.

TWENTY YEARS OF j ti ou'bles ? Wouldn't you be just ready to offer up a iprayer of thanksgiving ;and joy to heaven for the new-found .healt'hi? , known ressht in this section. Here are some of the things she says in effect in her signed statement: "For twenty years 1 have been troubled with dyspepsia. - I could not eat or enjoy a single meal. Usually threw up my (breakfast. I was terri bly constipated and my liver was all out of order. 'Headaches added to my , suffering and I was at a loss to ktiow whit to do, "A friend recently called my atten tion to the newspaper stories about the new herb medicine Dreco, and I decided to trr it and km if leerhans I this medicine cauld bring me relief jU did.

Foch Found Weak Point. Thereafter the Huns were able to organize further offensives, for even in such positions as the Hinden burg line they did not dare relinquish the initiative. When the March offensive began the Germans were in splendid condi tion and started with a spirit and dash. They were going to Paris of the Channel or both, according to a plan. When that plan broke down and retirement was forced on them rather than executed as a part of their program, demoralization be gan. This has been no such retreat as that of 1917. It has been forced, not voluntary. To break grips has. been impossible. The enemy has dogged the German heels; units have been crushed, communication between the high command and thefield officers has' been precarious and uncertaian. .The soldiers have realized there waa no plan which contemplated such a near rout as this; they didn't know what to do, their immediate commanders didn't know, and the high command could not reorganize new plans to the forces at the front fast enough. So demoralization spread, soldiers and officers alike losing confidence and having no training for initiative in such cir cumstances. Only Hope Is to Break Away. In this view which is represen tative of a most competent military authority the present acute need of Ludendorff is to break away from Foch long enough to get his forces under control, to perfect and com municate a plan, and tnen resume the offensive. Foch's .game is to keep the Germans constantly on the move disorganized, increasingly fearful that their trusted command has failed them. Every day of this continuing condition increases the difficulty of the German staff. It increases the tendency of soldiers to surrender simply because they don't know what to do. ltia not because they are cowards or unilling to fight that Germans, when extremely hard pressed, surrender in circum stances in which French or English or Americans would go on fighting; it is because the German is not sure what he ought to do. His notion of war doesn't embrace any such sit uation. A German army fighting through horrors similar to those of the British retreat from Mons is hardly imaginable. May Hammer All Winter. If the foregoing is entitled to the weight which good military opinion gives it, then the present situation on the battle front will become bet ter or worse for the Germans just as they succeed or fail in tearing away from Foch, restoring organiza tion, and resuming offensive tastics. A long German retreat even a re treat to the Rhine, and bevond that into Germany may be expected to consist of a series of withdrawals. reorganizations, and attempts at re sumption of the offensive. The en tente strategy must be keep the pressure so constant, the hammering so violent, that there will not he time nor opportunity for orderlv withdrawals and rearranirements. This makes probable that the alli ed command will attempt to keen war of movement going all winter. iney cannot aiford to gam a great advantage and then relinquish it and give the enemy opportunity to re sume his particular kind of startegy with the coming of another spring.
