AN APPRECIATION.
The Tribune wisncs to acknowledge in this manner a singular distinction which has just come to this newspaper. Mr. Jason Rogers, publisher of the New York Globe, and a v-orld-wide recognized expert on advertising, in the Editor and Publisher for June 10, names a list of one hundred newspapers covering the great trade centers and commends them to the national advertiser and all advertisers as the most effective list of mediums for distribution and for creating demand.
The Terre Haute Tribune is included in the list. A noticeable conclusion reached is that the evening papers predominate in ratio o* four to one.
The author of this advertising survey is the w#ll known publisher who has put the New York Globe in the forefront of American newspapers.
HOW IT IS FLAYED.
Chicago convention offers no
more interesting reminiscence than this, it was interesting to hear Senator Henry Cabot Lodge, Senator Reed Srnoot and others ,who had come on from Washington stgp to the platform and indulge in word fights denouncing President Wilson. The spectacle immediately s^ifrgested the question, why haven't they *to,pped h!m why haven't they arisen in the senate of the United States and forced public attention to this blundering dangerous man in the white house.
The answer is that the Chicago convention was a free forum for political patter. In the senate,'they' would be under the cold, serious *eyc of the nation and some responsibility and authority would- attach to their words. While on this point and to refresh the record the recent speteh nf the president at' the» Washington press club might be recalled. "I -frould be as ashamed to be rash as I would to be a coward," he said!
Much of the president's philosophy in regard to America's position in the present world complications might be compressed into that simple statement.
Abhorring rashness as much as cowardice, the president om the first has insisted that every right vouchsafed Americans sid other neutrals by the law of nation? should not be arbitrarily abrogated for the convenience of any belligerent. "He has a+.t-.ted with all the force at his command America's unchanging demand that the liberties of a people at peace shall not be ruthlessly sacrificed because one group of nations has chosen to take another group of nations by the throat
And this attitude of the president fairly represents that of thoughtful ^Americans generally. Americans are not rash ne'ther are they cowards They want no war. The\ abhor war. But there is one thing'they esteem even above peace. That is honor.
If the United State1? should find itself compelled to fight in order to de-
In many Instances—Persona have suffered untold agon}' for years doctoring for nervous weakness, stomach, liver or kidney disease or some other ailment when their real trouble was lnelc of- iron in the blood.—How to tell.
New York, N. Y.—In a recent dis-course,-Dr. E. Sauer, a well-known specialistj who has studied widely both in this country and Europe, said: "If you were to make an actuul blood test on all people who are ill you would probably be greatly astonished at the exceedingly large number who lack iron and v?ho are 111 for no other reason than the lack of iron. Tha moment iron is supplied all their multitude of dangerous symptoms disappear. Without iron, the blood at once loses the power to change food into living tissue and, therefore, nothing you eat does you any good you don't get. the strength out of it. Your food merely passes through your eyatcm like corn through a mill, with the rollers so wide apart that the\ mill can't grind. As a result of this continuous blood and nerve starvation, people become generally weakened, ne.rvous and all run down and frequently develop all Borts of conditions. One is too thin another Is burdened with unhealthy fat some are so weak thoy can hardly walk some think they have dyspepsia, kidney or liver trouble soriie can't sleep at night, Others are sleepy and tired all day some fussy and Irritable some skinny and bloodless, but all lack' physical power and endurance. In sucfe cases, it is worse than foolishness to take stimulating medicines or narcotic drugs, which only whip up your fagging vital powers for the moment, maybe, at the expense of ""your life later on. No matter what any one tells you, If you are, not strong and well you owe It to yourself-to make the following test: See how long you can work or how far you can walk
fend its iritegrity the call would be unmistakable. And every loyal son of the republic would be foung at the back of his commander-in-chief who had done the'utmost that lay in any*j man's power to avoid, the extreme measure.
"OUT OF POLITICS."
Col. Roosevelt's reiteration this morning of his statement (hat he is out of politics may mark the passing of the progressive pai ty. Grief and disappointment are likely to be the share of Gov. Johnson. Gittord Pinchot and such stalwarts as have made the battles for the colonel for the past, four years, and his acquiescence in political conditions such as evolve out of the nomination of Mr. Hughes doubtless comes as a shock to these leaders who have sacrificed political power elsewhere to do battle for the newly founded party.
While our political system favors the existence of a third party as a party of protest it may be that its development just at this time has been dissipated by w«j ld even*« that have taken public mind off direct political, topics.
It cannot he denied that the progressive convention just ended in Chicago made it evidet that there are still a lpt of progressives who do not view the situation just now as does Mr. Roosevelt,, but it is a largf question if their cohesion and determination can carry along any semblance of an organization. The outlook just at present seems against jt. The moose, like the dodo, seems extinct.'
TERRE HAUTE STORES.
According to a business survey by Tribune, interviewers Terre Haute merchants are.going into the summer season with the gratification of knowing that the spring business here exceeded all records and thut the outlook for summer sales was never so encouraging. This condition is gratifying. The progressive and adequate shops here reflect this happy situation and the one judgment of the Terre Haute merchant is that business is good. There are evidences on all hand that Terre Haute is taking her place as the trade center of this great and rich section of the Wabash valley and the influence of this larger commercial activity is being felt in all channels of trade.
It is not undeserved.. Terre Haute stores for years havo been recognized for their superior character, for their advanced service aTd their completeness and they have kept abreast of the, times in a manner which would reflect credit on such institutions. in cities larger than Terre Ha»ate.
The mail order habit never Beriously competed with the local merchant, as it does in. many comrrunities, in this section of the country This deterrent to the home^ merchant, in cities of the middlewest and la communities adjacent to any large metropolis has never fastened its hold seriously upon the natural trade created in this city and this territory. That community Is best served where there a balance in natural economic relatione and no one element aids this condition as much as the home merchant. So the great prosperity reflected in the Terre'Haute stores augurs well for a'.l enterprise and all people.
THE GERMAN HAMMER.
Some time ago the German commanders said they were sixty days ahead of schedule in the movement against Verdun. With the fall ofVaux it seems they over estimated the time and the indications now are,that they are much closer to Verddfti than sixty days, or even forty days.
Ever since the capture of Douaumont in the early davs of the battle the Frencfi. have depended largely on Fort Vaux toi maintain their eastern
Doctor Says Nuxated Iron Will Increase Strength of Delicate People 200% in Ten Days
without becoming tired. Next, take two five-grain tablets orf ordinary nuxated iron three times per day, after meals, for two weeks. Then test your strength again and see for yourself how much you have gained. I have seen dosens of nervous, rundown people who were ailing all the time double, and even triple their strngth and endurance and entirely get rid of their symptoms of dyspepsia, liver and other troubles In. from ten to fourteen days' time simply by taking iron in the proper form, and, this, aft'er they had in some cases been doctoring for months without obtaining any benefit. 1ou*can talk as you please about all the wonders wrought ty new remedies, but when you come down to hard facts there is nothing like good old sound, healthy flesh on your bones. It Is also a great nerve and stomach strengthener and the best blood builder In the world. The only trouble was that the old forms o( inorganic iron, like tincture of iron, Iron acetate, etc., often ruined people's teeth, upset their stomachs and were not assimilated, and for these reasons they frequently did more harm than good. But with the discovery of the newer forms of organic iron all this has been overcome. Nuxated Iron, for example, is •pleasant to take, does hot injure the teeth and is almost Immediately beneficial.
NOTE—The manufacturers' of Nuxated Iron have such unbounded confidence in its potency that they authorize the announcement that they will forfeit flOO.OO to any Charitable Institution if they cannot take any man or woman under sixty, who lacks Iron, and Increase their strength 200 per cent or over In four week*' time, provided they have no serious organic trouble. Also they will refund your money In any case in which Nuxated Iron does not at le«st double your strength in ten days', time. It is dispensed in'thls clty\ by New Central pharmacy, and all _Q.th.jgr druggists.

line of defense at Verdun. The Ger mans have repeatedly attempted t& take the positidn and have finally succeeded. The capture of Fort Vaux marks the first important German advance east of t-he Meuse since last February.
It was east of the Meuse that the Germans first attempted to march to Verdun. It was only when they realized that there could be no rapid advance in this direction that the Teuton strategists began the drive west of the Meuse which, has subsequenly held the world's attention. The fighting, as a rule, has been far fielder in thgf west than in the east though there have been oc&aslorial engagements of great magnitude in the .atter region. Last month the French even reoceupied Douaumont, the village, an 7 demolished fort which were the objects of the initial German attack. They were, however, soon dislodged, and now the Germans, by taking Vaux. have madS a really Important gain.
One heed go no further than the French estimates to understand the significance of Vaux. It has been considered the keystone of the French defense east of the river. When a keystone is knockd from its place an arch crumbles.

Many divorces are foreshadowed by the stars. The autumn will be a period of multiplying scandals in which military men may become involved.
Those who court public favor-.should benefit under this sway of the stars. Modistes and milliners, designers and those who exploit fashions in magazines or other* pubic points have the prognostication of gain. Dress will occupy much attention and become a matter of serious concern.

The young man addressed As Laidlaw, struggled angrily, and one of those crowds, which in New York seem to spring up like magic, began to surround the pair. Mary found her view for the moment blocked, but over the heads of the curious onlookers, she could hear the frenzied voice of the shabby youth raised' in shrill appeal,, and then the sound of a volent struj^J gle. Finally an officer, attracted bx the fight on the walk, came shoving through,'with a fine disregard of the anatomy of those who blocked his path. The officer pounced upon the figure of the young man.
Mary divined from the suddent movement of the spectators that the policeman had taken the shabby youth into custody, and felt a swift wave of pity

As the officer complied, and the young fellow started off, Mary raised her voice, as she caught the wandering glance of the ill-dressed young man, who caused the commotion. "Won't you please come here a moment?" she asked, smiling down at him.
The other hesitated, flushing awkwardly. "Perhaps I can help you," Mary continued persuasively, "that is, if you care to tell your story to a stranger."
The youth shuffled over to the edge of the motor, and fumbled at his hat. On a closer view Mary could see that his face was worn to an unnatural thinness and pallor, and that in his eyes was the glint of either fever or desperation, or both. "There—there isn't much to tell," he began, stammering. "It is just another

And—and when my mother died, just after I lost my job, and I had her funeral expenses to pay, I haU to go to th?em to borrow the money. I couldn't psfy them when I couldn't find wol-k, and so they took all our little furniture, and threw me into the street. I tried to ekplaiiir that it wasn't fair, thkt I wasn't trying to cheat them, that I would pay as soon as I could, but whenever I went to their office, they wouldn't see mo. And so, I had to wait until I could meet one of them on the street, and this was "my .first chance. I guess I had my trouble for my pains," he endued bitterly. "And I ought to thank my stars that I wasn't arrested in the bargain."
