VOGUE OF THE ARMY SHOE Since Men of the National Guard Have Returned to Their Homes Minneapolis Journal When the Crusaders returned home, they brought back th e Arabian horse. When Pizarro returned from I'yru. he brought back the potato. VWn our militiamen returned from the Mexican border, they brougt back the army shoe. The horse ami the potato proved to he worth more to the world than all the country the soldiers set out to conquer. The shoe, if we have the Wit to use it, will be worth more to America than all the wealth of the Montezuma. For lack of a sensible standard shoe we are the nation of cripples, and, the mobilization !has discovered to us this fact and that nhoe. The army medical corps found that " per cent of the state guards were limping along in misfit footwear, while 70 per cent had twisted and jammed feet, malformed by civilian shoes On the other hand, 75 per (''nt of the regular army men whose feet had been clad for a time in army shoes had normal feet. These trav eled all day on joyful soles, while the militiamen early fell by the wayside in bjlistered pHaJtoonsV The foot surgeons of the medical corps declared that 90 per cent of American civilians are wearing shoes that do not fit. iNow there is no need of this sen seless abuse of the human foot. The normal foot is the same today that of the baby born 5000 years hence will of he baby born 5000 years hence will doubtless be as near like your baby's foot as two peas in a pod. If a shoe of normal shape and simple rule for fitting it have been found, why need any human foot be injured for its clothing? Why need styles change? Why swing from the toothpick toe to the broad box toe and back again endlessly for the poor sake of style? And why trust the fitting of your footwear to mere chance and fancy? With the return of our militiamen has sprung up a home demand for the army shoe. .Many of these men say they never before knew foot com fort. The shoe is as light and hand- SOME FRENCH CITIES PROFITING BY WAR (ly Associated Press.) (Pari, eb. .5. Thje formidable traffic in connection with the army has enriched cities like Havre, Rouen, Boulogne, Calais and Amiens, where the British have made heavy expei ditures, and cities like Bordeaux, Ly ons and Marseilles; where the needs of the French and allied armies have given rise to the most intense indus trial and commercial movement. 'Other cities and a great many small towns situated so as to con tribute to the great effort have also gained immensely. In all these places the circulation of money ex ceeds the most extravagant anticipa tion and gives to the superficial ob server the impression of increased wealth . More money is scene m a night in Marseilles than was ever spent in a week before the war. The same is not true of the other war-en riched cities because of the restriction of opportunities for outlay; upon amusements and distractions. Money is more plentiful in Paris than ever, though, excepting in cer tain popular restaurants, it finds less opportunity than in Marseilles to make a show for itseif. The great abundance of circui ting medium, however, may be trac ed to the issue of 10 billion francs additional paper money by the Bank of France since 1913, that represents nothing but a promise of the Bank of France; a promise that will even tually be changed into a debt for fu ture generations to pay, VISCOUNT BRYCE, 78 YEARS OLD, GOOD WALKER (By Associated Press.) (London, Feb. 5. Viscount Bryce, although 78 years old, still boasts of his ability as a pedestrian. During Lord Bryce's recent trip to the front, the young officer assigned to conduct him about was sketching a little trip along the front which he proposed to make with the distin guished visitor the next day, when he suddenly thought that perhaps the program involved too long a walk for a man of 78. However, Lord Bryce is an old Alpinist and agreed to walk against his young officer friend for any distance or any kind of road. The next day the two re turned to camp, after trudging through the trenches for many miles, the young man had to admit that he was very much more fatigued than his companion. ANKLE MASHED Joe Fleming, a negro employed on the construction of the Catawba railroad bridge, was operated on in Hickory Sunday afternoon by Drs. Shuford, Steel and Stevenson, a bone in the foot being removed This member was mashed and the bone pro truded so that it could not be set. Fleming is from Columbus. Ga., and he will remain in south Hickory un til he is able to get about again. I ARTICHOKE CULTURE IS URGED IN FRANCE (By Associated Press) iParis, Fa 5. French farmers and truck gardeners are being urged to cultivate the "topinambour" or "Je rusalem artichoke" on a larger scale and thus help combat the rising cost of living. !The topinambour is a tu ber that grows in the poorest soil, requires little care, always yields well and posseses excellent nutri tive qualities.

The American em bjassey received formal notification from Washington to discontinue rep resenting German interests in Great Britainy The British government was advised that owing to the sev erance of diplomatic relations, the United States has ceased to represent British interests in Germany. The state department advised the embassey that it had not yet been decided what neutral would be en trusted with German interests in England. it is THE GENERAL FEELING IN GERMANY ONE OF REGRET Berlin, Feb. 5. Via Sayviile Press dispatches have reached Ber lin, according to which diplomatic re lations between Germany and the United States have been broken ff, says the Overseas News agency No official confirmation has been receiv ed. ''In case the new:-, is correct," adds the agency, ''the general feeling in Germany is regret that the Amer ican President gave to the German note an interpretation which was not intended by Germany. The Ger man measures are not intended to damage neutrals, but were caused y the necessity of defending Germany against hostile measures which are contrary to international law, Ger many's enemies, therefore, being charged with the whole responsibil ity." ANTIDOTES FOR BODILY POISONS a El m m m El If m m m m m m There is a reason why vehicles made by the Piedmont Com pany have a reputation (and are guaranteed to do it) of run ning lighter than any other makes. The Company started as a repair shop (in 1877), and while re pairing the different makes of wagons, the good and bad points in their construction were carefully noted and discussed with the experienced teamsters. Consequently the combined knowledge of the different designers, with that of experienced wagon users, was obtained, and this, along with many experiments laid the foundation for our present wagons. Since that time a great many improvements have been made, but LIGHT DRAUGHT and STRENGTH have been our aim. Come to our factory and see how the DISH is put in the wheel, and how the set and GATHER are put into the axle. Piedmont Wagon & Manufacturing Co. Local Agents ABERNETHY HARDWARE COMPANY, Hickory, N.

Smith, M. D.) The victims of anto-intoxicatlon are many thousands every year. By reason of the toxins, or poisons bred in the intestines, these poisonous bac teria are sent all through the blood channels and the victim feels tired, sleepy and headachy, or the brain doesn't work as usual. The best treatment for this is to drink hot water before breakfast plenty 0f water all day and procure a simple laxative, made of May-apple leaves of aloe, etc , with no calomel and en tirely vegetable, which can be obtain ed at any drug store, known as Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pelletsi Equally important is it to cleanse kidnevs andt bladder, and drinking plentifully of pure water will cleanse them to a certain extent. Then ob tain at the drug store a little Anu ric, which was first discovered by Dr. Pierce of Surgical Institute in Buffalo , N. Y. Anuric (double strength) should be taken before meals. It is many times more potent than lithia m throwing off the pois onous accumulations of uric acid. Through failure of kidneys to act, through congestion, inflamation, any person's condition is ripe tor disease to fasten its hold upon the system. Anuric has been tested for the past few years for kidney, bladder, uric acid troubles, rheumatism, gout, and such ailments as follow, and so many cases both acute and stubborn have yielded to this wonderful remedy that I do not hesitate to recommend it.
