Till USDAY. APl'lL 18. 11 .UTEK I'Ol'U WEEKS It v;m four weeks ago today that the Gtrmans began their great attack in l'icardy which gave the appear ance of breaking the British line but uhich was checked there and several days later renewed in Belgium. Here the battle is raging with increased intensity, if that be possible. The issue was still in doubt as this was written, with the allies uneasy as to the fate of the high ground won last year at such groat cost. In the four weeks that have elaps ed since the battle began we may be sure the allies have scraped together enough reserves to deal a counter blow, and this may be expected to fall at any time. There is a prob ability that the French and British have lined up many of their reserves and that the formation of a new army of maneuver will be necessary. We do not know. At any rate, every day that passes is so' much time gained for the allies. Anurican brigades are being placed with French and British and they will replace the losses of the allies. A British division, thanks to the hearty cooperation of Amer ica, will be as strong' after a great battle as before instead of Britons Americans will fill the gaps. The wa.aye on the (Jerman side will be permanent, as there will be no fresh supply to draw from, no untouched reservoir pouring a steam of soldiers into von Hindenburg's divisions. All the allies need is saying power to insure the.m success, 'and the fact that the battle of Flanders has not been won or lost yet, that the Brit ish are able to deliver counter at tacks, are encouraging signs. The allies will win yet. In line with many other towns and cities. Granite Falls is making war on the loafers and idlers and the town authorities have served notice that these gentry will not be wel come there. In this day and time there should be no loafers, especial ly among men, and that community which puts them to work is doing a good turn. Loafers should be run in everywhere they show their faces. Catawba county people have pur chased $7.,(0) of War Savings Stumps. In 1023 all this money will come back home and the men, women and children who have in vested will be that much better off". It is a good proposition and one docs well who takes all he can pay for. Regardless of the present struggle on the British front, the Record is confident the allies will be able to turn and give the enemy a drubbing. It is about time the Germans are being given something else to think ubout, too. Granite Falls authorties have pass ul an ordinance to make men work voluntarily or join the chain gang and if they enforce that ordinance as they do that against speeding, they surely will keep the loafers at work. It was good news that the Asso ciated Press brought us late yester day afternoon, and the Record was able to include it in about 250 cop ies. The British had begun to re act, showing that the bulldog still hail his teeth. Business men would not invest their money in Liberty Bonds ex cept for good reasons the need of the country and protection for them selves und their families. Let your answer be a Liberty Bond. AllSTKIA.lil'NttAUY IN HAD Austria-Hungary is in a bad ec onomic condition, much worse than Germany, where preparations were made to collect the cost of the war out of the allies and where as re cently as last week a German mem ber if the reichstatf said the central powers would require $25,000,000,000 ti satisfy their diemands. But Austria-Hungary, in spite of short age of food and bad war financing, is buoyed up with the hope that the allies may be made to pay tne cost 01 tjie wan yien the tide of battle turns against the Teutons, and it will turn against them, Austria-Hungary will Worse off than ever; Emperor . 1 1 i 'harles will not have the backing of a populace, which though tired of war, was willing to be ouiet a few more weeks in tne expecvauon ox a American insurance field.

We can look to Austria-Hungary to furnish internal explosions. A gang lighting to steal will not show half the endurance of a crowd fight ing to prevent being robbed. And by this time everybody in Austria Hungary knows what the war was started for. Rural mail carriers operating out from Hickory have put in a lick for the Liberty Bonds. These faith ful men have not been content to sell War Savings Stamps, but have pushed Liberty Bonds and want the public to know where their hearts are. There is nothing like a pull all-together. Austria-Hungary may be in bad shape, and it undoubtedly is. but it is the business of Americans to make it worse. A smart paragraph looks easy af ter the other fellow has given it the punch.

Secretary McAdoo has acted properly in throwing the German in surance compani.es that have been fattening on good American money out of business, but they are not done with. Some of these concerns are seeking to "crawl into the cel lar windows with the rats," as Fi nancial America puts it. That paper thinks it strange that members of the New York legislature should be found willing to aid in an enemy ef fort, yet it "develops that a bill has been introduced in the legislature of that state that would permit the Alien Property Custodian to invest the assets of enemy alien insur ance companies up to the amount of their surplus in capital stock of any domestic insurance corporation.

Jones, of Palmer, Okla., writes: "From the time I en tered into womanhood ... I looked with dread from one month to the next: I suffered with my back and bearing-down pain, until life to me was a misery. I would think I could not endure the pain any longer, and I gradually got worse. . Nothing seemed to help me until, one day, . I decided to TAKE The Woman's Tonic I took four bottles," Mrs. Jones goes on td say, "and was not only greatly relieved, but can truthfully say that I have not a pain. . . " It has now been two years since I tookCardui, and I am still in good health. . . I would ad vise any woman or girl to use Cardui who is a sufferer from any female trouble." If you suffer pain caused from womanly trouble, or if you feel the need of a good strengthening tonic to build up your run-down system, take the advice of Mrs. Jones. Try Car dui. It helped her.
