While the

crisis has made acute

the need of .American ships, the .project of the government becoming the operatot of a line of'vessels to carry American commerce* does not appeal keenly to the people of this country. This is an. enterprise whic£ would require broad education ,'of the people on the mitter of exports and imports and -marine operations before the average citlxen would havse any conception of the issue, much less Je able to gitve it his endorsement.

So thoroughly has the American people dissociated itself from the sea that in the present shortage of boats in wlilch to carry our goods, the proposal of the government to buy German ships marooned in New York is the sol§ constructive idea offered. No marked impetus In the building of Amerkfin ships by private capital has been noticed, although in other enterprises we .-display marked individual initiative.

Tet the sea is a natural field for private enterprise and quite the last pldce where government ownership should be tried. A transcontinental railway costs hundreds of millions and years of labor. but the sea is open to all comers and an effective competition can be built up for a fraction of railroad cost. Ships halve no public kid, no franchise, no: advantages of monopolized trade along their routes. Ships are not fixtures

as are

railway properties they

may be find are shifted to meet the circumstances... Ships'afd. extraordinary mobile, their ownersft-ip is widely scattered among all the nations, of the world. This diversity safeguards against shipping monopoly.

All things considered it may be Just as well that the protests of France and Grfcat Britain have delayed the purchase vof German ships by the United Stages government. As soon as financial arrangements are made which will permit large movements of goods, plenty of ships will appear and/bid for the carrying jobs.

THE PEOPLE"S MONEY.

The report of the visiting committee of "the 1913 legislature appointed by ^Governor Ralston to visit the penal, benevolent and educational institutions, had' for *one of its signers Jesse Eschbach,' the republican floor leader of the house of representatives.

state in the union gets better results from the money expended than does the state of Indiana." This report, with Eschbach as one of the signers, Is printed on page. 482 of the 1913 House Journal.

Eschbach is the chairman of the republican speakers' bureau, which ha* charged the democratic party with wilful extravagance in connection with the 1913 legislature. In the light of Eschbach's own admission that Indiana gets more for its money than any other, state in the .union-it is-difficult to. see, how he can., reconcile the_ present attitude of the republican organization, of which he is a member, and his own statement as a member "of the 1913 legislature.

ANOTHER SHOCK.

As the man who invented the perpetual motion machine said: "One after one ou£ ideas fail."

It is, pretty late to stir it up now, for most of the mischief is done, but the New York Medical Journal turns around on its swivel chair and says over its shoulder that the ordinary vacation is a mistake.

The Journal says a man makes a serious blundefc when he rushes away from home and gives himself up to the hard work of finding constant entertainment, and comes home filled up with typhoid and other germs and takes as much time to recdver from his unaccustomed exertions as he would to recover from a fit of sickness.

Take your vacations temperately. Vacations are all right in moderation. Spend them at home in the quiet enjoyments of reading, sleeping, resting. Dose yourself with pure air and pure water, and get back to your work in the best of trim for it

That's the boiled-down advice of the medical journal: 'Perhaps, wh'An you look back, you may be inclined to agree with the editor. Perhaps he himself has had experiences.

Next year's vacation is some distance ahead. You'll have time to think this advice over—or to forget It

THE STOLID GERMAN.

War writers, at least those who have given the operations of the German army close attention, see nd immediate misfortune for the arms of the kaiser. Among these experts It is generally declared that the German towns are so fortified that the allies will never be able to make inroads into German territory under the present plan of campki^n.

It is likely that the Rvyjs,iaiV army, which was driven back from- East Prussia was considerably reinforced. This, however, is mere speculation. The Russian general may have retired, to his. own chosen battle ground and there fought with a skill commensurate with his high military reputation.

The victory at Augustowo, which has turned back the Germans "from Russia and possibly palved the way for another and stronger Russian invasion of Prussia, places the entire Russian front in an aggressive attitude. The Russian generals are moving slowly and cautiously they are not risking the advantages they have won in any ill-considered dash to Berlin or elsewhere. The Russian strategy has been successful, and in the continued skill of the czar's commander rests the best hope of the anti-German allies. It iss generally admitted that the Franco-Belgo-Brltish forces would never be able, by a crushing invasion of Germany, to bring the kaiser to terms.

Prescription

(In Tablet or Liquid Form) has helped thousands of suffering women to

Better Health,' Greater Strength, Brighter Spirits, Better Looks.

The Favorite Prescription is prepared from the natural remedial herbs growing in our native forests—without alcohol, without narcotics. It is a restorative tonic. It corrects nervous irritability, exhaustion and the distressing symptoms of derangement of the feminine organs.

The Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription has been sold in liquid form for over forty years. It can now be had from all dealers in medicines#in either tablet or liquid form—or send 50 cents in one-cent stamps and obtain

box of tablets by mail. Address: DR. PIERCE, Invalids' Hotel, Buffalo, N.Y.

Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets regulate and invigorate stomach, liver and bowels. Sugar-coated,

tiny granules, easy to take as candy.

Their endeavor is merely to keep busy a large part of the German forces while the Russians pursue their offensive campaign. The battle of Augustowo, which has for the present ended the German offensive movement fn the east, may'be recorded as one of thd-de-cisive engagements of the war.

The most famous moving picture artist in the world has been killed in the battle of the Aisne, but if any brother camera man got a picture of the tragedy, he'll come in for quite .a bit of fame himself.

Congress may adjourn in time to permit its members to man the second line erf defenses. The great majority were fortunate enough to capture the outer works at primary time.

"Kaiser Wilhelm" contains thirteen letters. But so does "L.a:Belle France" and "Merrie England." And there's "Francis Joseph,"! and Woodrow Wilson, and William J. Bryan.

It may be assumed that foreign millionaires will he)*eaf£er select sites for their country homes with a keen appreciation of their strategic possibilities.

It is said that the Olympic games scheduled for1 Berlin (n 1916 may take place in Antwerp. But there may be no Antwerp at that time.

The line of battle in France is getting so badly bent that it begins to look like a map of the East Locust street car line.

Probably those thoughtful military authorities at Vienna will,fortify their town on the Italian 61de, too.

The colonel's speeches have often been long, but Ohio is the first state to find them dry.

PROTEST AUTOMOBILE TAX.

Indiana Concerns Object to Proposed Legislation. INDIANAPOLIS Oct. 7.—The Indiana Automobile Manufacturing association, the Hoosier Motor club and affiliated clubs and workmen employed in the automobile factotites of Indiana have protested against the proposed tax on automobiles and! on the capuai stock of automobile manufacturing companies. Representatives of thirtytwo manufacturing conceals sent a telegram' to Lincoln' Dixon, member of the ways and means committee* urging that he use his influ^&e against such a,measure. Ow«ers atid» workmen joined the manufacturers in sending telegrams of protest to President Wilson, the congress and members of the Indiana delegation In congress. The messages state* that practically all the1 motor cars built in the United States are manufactured in Indiana, Michigan and Ohio, and that the tax would be "discriminating for this reason.

TERRE HAUTE TRIBUNE

KNOEFEL DISCUSSES FIRST AID METHODS

Head of Mine Safety Association Delivers Address to Members of St. Stephen's Men's Club.

The St. Stephen's Men's club held its first meeting of the season at the parish house Tuesday evening and was addressed by Dr. August F. Knoefel, president oiLthe, Arnericaa Mine Safety association, on "M.odern Methods, in Mine Safety." He explained the steps taken in recent years to insure the safety of the miner and he demonstrated the use of the first aid kit and of. the breathing apparatus. Dr. Knoefel quoted figures from the reports of the United States bureau of mines and the Indiana mine inspection commission, which proved that Indiana is farther advanced, ib this work thfen the country as a whole. ftev. John E. Sulger was the patient when the method of treating a lacerated scalp was shown. The Draeger •artificial breathing apparatus was also demonstrated.

Dr. Knoefel said that the miner who ma.de big money was the man that the operators wanted, because he was tellable and could always be counted on. He told of instances in which a min^r had mined eighteen tons of coal jn a day, and of men who had received $130 for the iwo weeks' work. "In the Iy.ear. l9l4i. 570,048,125 tons bf coal were,|piiied {rathe United States and of this am"oun.t^l7,246,toAs were mined in Indiana," he said. In the en tire country ,747 644 miners were employed "and of this number 21,415 were employed In Indiana. During the year there were 2,785 fatal accidents in the country but only sixty-four In Indiana. "The gross earnings of the Indiana miners during 1913 were $15,959,997 and they mined 17,246,565 tons of coal. Regardless of other expenses it cost the operator" about rilnety-two cents per ton for mining coal.. The total' expenses of mining is probably larger than any other industry in existence."

THE DAY OF REST.

Harvard Scientists Prove That It Restores Tone to the Nerves. The refreshi'ng^influence of the weekly "day of rest" on a person subjected to the strenuous routine of a busy life is a Teature which he himse can duly appreciate in the. effects on his "feelings" and "spirits." The efficiency of the working man, the'length of the working day, the interjection of pauses for rest in the schedule of labor for persons of different ages and stations in life—questions of this sort are constantly arising for solution on a scientific basis. Not only In the field of manual labor, but also In the case of the school child, the office boy, the factoryfgirl, the banker and the merchant, efficiency is the keynote of the times. Fatigue is the enemy of efficiency and to detect and compensate for or overcome it Is the duty of those concerned with the promotion of human welfare. "In view of this," says .the Journal of the American Medical Association, "it is* of more than passing interest to know that Dr. Martin and some of his associates in'the laboratory of physiology at the Harvard, medical school have been making a careful study of the whole question of fatigue and efficiency from a physiological standpoint. A long series of experiments have been made on first-year medical students who were following a regular routine of school work during six days of each week. "The routine was interrupted weekly by .the Sunday recess, an In.tef-val occupied variously by the students, but in n6 case hi precisely the manner of the week days. The dally observations made on these persons during several weeks show that the beginning of the week the nerve' reaction' tends to be high that from then until the end of the week there is a fairly continuous decline, and that following the interruption of the routine by the intervention of Sunday, it returns to the original high point. "The decline Is Interpreted as a cumulative result of general fatigue in-, cident to routine. What is even more significant,' however, is the added fact that a pronounced break in the routin*. —such as the 'day of rest' occasions— may bring about a return of sensitiveness to a high point or, in other words. It restores the nervous tone. Studies continued in this direction should lead to some useful conclusions regarding the maximum of work, with respect to both its duration and type, that should determine the conditions under which the organism of man may be maintained without depletion."—New York times. .-cvTHE TRIBUNE CLASSIFIED P'VGE

Love affairs are subject to a most sinister guidance and may be most unlucky under this configuration. There is a prediction, however, that many marriages will take place before the year, despite, financial conditions other considerations usually deamfcd detrimental to the founding: of neW homes.

The transit of Neptune through Leo is held to give warning of excitement In Paris greater than any that has thrilled thfc city at any tme in its history. The stars presage victory for France.

Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of rather an anxious year. Both business and domestic affairs, may present problems. ISictrepne care concerning writings of every sort may prevent trouble.

THE CIRCUS.

This is the day of the sawdust ring. By jln'g! The old folks, all haye to go„:„ .. And see the show. So as to chapferone the kids Outside of that, their age forbids. Don't say there nay,, it is no use They'll go and borrow an excuse In shape of some near neighbor's child. The world has smiled For vears and years at silly clowns. The, ups and, downs Of mighty acrobats have thrilled Year after year the tents are filled. They pay their hard-earned dough to see The freaks perform, in highest glee. It trn't possible to .pass -The gentleman who eats the glass. The living skeleton, they say, Ne'er grows passe. The girl with snakes about her form Is sure to take the crowd by storm. The rubber-skinned man snaps his hide \nd sells his photos far and wide. The gaping crowds, will stand and stare At toothless lions in their lair. The elephants will stand and eat Peahuts. and shift piledrlver feet. The chariots, drawn by horse power, Will speed around, three miles an hour And mighty crowds will gaze in awe,

The

greatest thing they ever saw. Of Course, they've Seen It all before Ir. days of yore.

Some

And Quickly fall, The circr.s, though, has come to stay, It ne'er grows stale.

Health First

In buying food articles we must consider several things—-economy, results,? convenience, reliability but the most important is Health.

Health means everything. If one gets cheated in buying dresses, shoes or bonnets it is provoking, but the harm is chiefly loss of money. In buying food articles, if imitations or poor stuffs are supplied, there is a loss of money and probably an injury to health also and good health is beyond price.

Remember these facts when buying baking powder. -Y7
