THE REPLY TO AUSTRIA'S NOTE Of course there was only one an wer that could have been given to th insultinsr Deace note sent to the Allies by Austria, and President Wil son sent that without a moment's hes itation or delay. If he had sent any otber reply he would have lost the re- nnf of his own Deoule and of the people of the world. Germany, in which country no doubt the "peace" move originated, has realized that she cannot force a military decision, and is adroitly endeavoring to win through "peace offers" what she is unable to accomplish by force of arms. There sever can be any peace now that is not dictated by the Allies, and the answer to every future peace note should be President Wilson's utterance mude in Baltimore in April, as follows: "Force, force to the utmost, force without stint or limit, the righteous and triumphant force which shall make right the law of the world, and cast every selfish dominion iu the dust." Every man In America who at this time even suggests a peace such as Germany and Austria offer is a trai tor and should be arrested for treason. Under the caption, "The World's An swer," the Washington Post says a few things which everybody 'should see. Here they are: The two outlaw empires have the Answer to their propposal for a secret conference in which to dispose of the rights of mankind. With the exception of one or two voices uttering pacifism and treason, the public men and the press of the United States, England, France and Italy have rejected with abhorrence " the Insulting invitation from the cor rupt and servile government of Austria-Hungary. There has been Instan- . ' taneous recognition of the fact that the proposal is perfidious in intent and effect. Insulting alike to the honor and the intelligence of the allied gov ernments, and conceived in hatred, malice and enmity. The public of all allied countries perceives that Austria's proposal is not, in fact a peace proposal, but a ' war maneuver. It is made by the na tion that Is even at this moment suck- ' ing the blood of murdered Serbia. There Is no suggestion by the mnrder er that he will withdraw from Serbia :. as an evidence of good faith and a Changed heart fit for peace. If the murderer makes the proposal because of war weakness and Imminent col- . lapse, if he Is earnestly desirous of peace, why does he not show that he is repentant? i" The allies are insulted when such a criminal offers to negotiate peace with ' them on any terms other than uncon ditional surrender. But their intelli gence is Insulted also when he sug- seats a secret, star-chamber confer- '. ence. In which to trade away the i rights of peoples and nntions. What allied nation could bring it- . self for a moment to enter into a se- cret conference with the represents tlves . of the murderer empires that . started this war and are now standing, knife In hand, slaying and slowly with. drawing from the territory they have ravaged? If the enemy hopes that he can create a spirit of dissension among ' the allies, be is mistaken. The allies ', have gone far beyond the point where words from the enemy will swerve tbem from their united purpose to de feat ana disarm him. No ingenuity of Invention, no turpi tude of heart, no stratagem of force or ' diplomacy can avert from Germany and Austria-Hungary the avenging wrath of the civilized world. Humanity will not stay its hand until the enemy is laid low,. The .United States govern ment, in dismissing the Austro-Hun-garian proposal, again expresses the fixed purpose of, this nation and its al lies to carry the war to the end. , dwle would be burn uior euKllv. i if cKJrn things tier are ihK like bouie, but I g about tuy task with witllug heart. I fully realise that this is uo vacation of lnin. You fully ki we all are disappointed souie time In life. As a whole, I must my my dulHn are far better than I thought they would he when I left the State. If you will take things easy this conflict will come to an end some day. I am here trying to serve my country. It Is not what I think, but it is what I do to help my comrade that counts over here. Sure glad to hear from you agaiii. Of course I think of home f tent and am glud to get a letter froui you. The vegetables over Here are sunpiy grand. They seem to grow without any attention. The fields seem to suy by what they produce that the Kaiser must le whipped. The nnest wnoat and oats that I have ever seen grow here. There is no end to the imtiirm's. onions, cabbage, boots, carrots and ev erything In the vegetable line. If our fields at home yielded as they do here there would be enough food stuff to feed the world. I am not uneasy alxiut something to eat. The manpower Is what counts now and we have them both in the States. The world will never know how ninny men we have here till after the war. Pon t think of sending me any thing over here. I am willing to share the space on the lioats for more men and white leans. How many boats would it take to bring each soldier over hero a bo weighing seven pounds to Krance? We are willing to wait and let I'liclo Sam have all the boats for other things Well, I am still able to cut. With love. l'VT. SAM A. M.CdMMONS, 1st Kegt. Co. I. M. M. S. '.. American Ex. Force.

Dearest Mother and All : Here I am again, and you can't im agine how glad I was to hear from you again. You must write me every day for this is almost a "heathen'' country and a letter from home makes a follow fee! like he's dreaming until a fellow comes along and pinches him and then he realizes he hasn't been on a "jour ney" but is still way out on a desert and can see nothing but a few bushes, sand and snakes and especially rattlers. The houses here are built of mud and cross ties and are built Hat on the ground as they have such terrible storms here. I have a dandy horse and only wish you could see me mounted, but. then you might think me an outlaw, for I carry a saber, pistol and a rifle, and you can imagine how "rough" we look. I hope we won't stay here longt hut will be sent "over" for I feel as we are needed "over there." I'm sorry yon didn't get to visit me at Fort Thomas, Ky. How is everyone at home? Tell them all hello for me. I hope cousin Sophia's arm is well by now. If you see "Sgt. Wilson" tell him hello for me and tell him by the time the war is over hell know who made the Kaiser. If he doesn't know who made him he'll have the pleasure of knowing who is enter taining him forevermore, ha, ha ! Well, the only thing I'm disappointed in is this, the girls are few and gee, how ugly. The Southern girls for me. Be sure you write me every day and send me anything, you wish, it makes no difference how often either for It sure will be appreciated. Tell Maye for goodness sake to send me a cake, ha. ha f I'D close so, write me , all the news. May God be with you till we meet again.

This treat ment Is wrong. It helps but for the time being and as long as you take It Nervous dyspepsia and gas is of ner vous origin, which Inhibits the diges tive process, and not a lack of gastric juice. 1'pou this true medical fact very few medicines are prepared, and one of these few Is Dreco, the new herb-and-root medicines. Why Dreco helps nervous dyspepsia Is easily understood when you remem ber that the digestive glands in the sto mach are operated by nerve force, and Ureco contains natural Ingredients which urge these stomach nerves to ac tion. This feature makes Dreco an un usually successful remedy for the per manent relief of gas in the stomach and nervous dyspepsia, where ordinary dyspepsia medicines give but tempor ary relief after a meal. "Dreco did me lots of good and I'm going to take more of it," declares W. D. Blackwell, the well known merchant of R. F. D. 8, Inman, B. C, In a signed statement "Food burned hi my stom ach and I'd have to vomit. I am rec ommending this excellent medicine to all my friends." Dreco is harmless.
