SERVICE AT HOME.

Terre Haute has a very extensive packing: plant, and just now it is storing immense quantities of food for consumption next winter. Everyone knows that every bit of foo'd conserved and preserved adds just that much to the available supply during the long winter months, and, too, some of the production of this plant will find its way directly to the commissaries of the armies. So it can be seen at once that the work which this plant is doing even this remote from the fighting fronts is highly important.

At the peak of the season, that Is •When the harvest is on, the loads and loads of stuff to be canned take all available storage at the plant, and the Company finds its greatest problem in getting help. The maximum production at the plant requires a maximum amount of help, and this year It is said that other Industrial lines offer $iich attractive inducements that the packing industry finds it difficult to attain and hold to its greatest capacity.

The Tribune doea not know what arrangements might be made with Mr. Loudon, but it seems that here is a chnnce for patriotic service among the women and the girls of the city from "the leisure class." It requires deft fingers and many of them to prepare the products now flooding into the food packing plants, and it would seem that for those casting about for some means of helping to win the war that here is Jin effective and agretmble plan.

If one hundred or two hundred girls and women, who have nothing seriously to occupy them for the next few weeks and who by their circumstances are not required %o be-regularly engased a| work, were to go to the relief of this food industry, It would be a commendable and worthy course. A large bungalow apron and a peeling Knife worn on behalf of a larger food supply for« the boys in the trenches Wou'.d be a badge of honor, indeed.

The Tribune will take pleasure in *otifying Mr. Loudon If there are any yolunteers to accept the suggestion.

THE LAST LINK.

The. Cologne Volksxeitung bewails the suspension of eo many Germanlanguage newspapers in the United States. "With the disappearance of the German newspapers," it pays, ''the last link between Germany and Ger-man-Americans has been broken. Ho\^ sad this, is.w i"nni th^ kai.«er viewpoint, no doubt

it Is s&d. The kaiser's dream was to control opinion in this country, by means of German votes and a German press, until he could conquer Europe. He would then have proceeded to treat his American '"subjects" with just about as much consideration as he treats his subjects in Germany. They are his, to do with as he pleases. When they cease to be useful to him, he ceases to care for them. A man might feel the same way toward a dog or horse.

We do not credit the report that wealthy agents of the kaiser propose to re-establish the German-language press in the United States at the close of the war. They would be throwing their money away, for one thing. The day of the German-language press in this country is past Most of them are dying of inanition, but if any remain when the boys return from overseas, with their first-hand stories of German outrages, they will quickly disappear.

AUTOMOBILE ORDERS.

The Tribune some days ago observed that the government would likely And that the contemplated order eliminating the manufacture of "pleasure" cars had so many ramifications in the automobile industry and in industries and commerce generally that a second thought would be taken before such an order was put into execution.

Today's dispatches say that the or der will be amended to allow the automobile manufacturers to make twenty-Ave per cent of their average production of pleasure cars, and that preferential orders will be issued which will bring up the concession to about fifty per cent of the normal production.

The number of automobiles that can be called strictly "pleasure" cars is nil. Nearly every owner of a car adapts

the

convenience

It is not to be supposed, however, that any such policy will be permanent. Ther^ is a line, somewhere not very far in the rear which the Germans will give up only when they are soundly whipped, and that line, very likely, ia the old Hindenburg line. The German command chose it as the best in the neighborhood at a time when they had ample leisure in which to plan and choose. If It suited them two years ago. there is reason for thinking that it will be their choice this time, if the pressure of the allied armies becomes sufficient to demand a retirement. It may be, as some critics

purpose. Of course

palatial limousines reserved for the convenience of the affluent might come under the classification of "pleasure cars, but such designation ceases about there.

The point the Tribune made was that such a tremendous number of citizen's is engaged in the making, the selling, the distribution and the repair, upkeep and storage of automobile^, pnd the vehicle is so closely inter-related to nearly every business and professional activity, that the economic disturbance caused by such a suspension would react to a disadvantage exceeding any gain in war energy so conserved.

FALLEN IDOLS.

A Tribune dispatch yesterday said that It was evident that the German people are beginning to lose faith In Hindenburg as a miracle man, and now they not only doubt his power to supply them with food from newly invaded lands, but they are beginning to doubt his power to save their land itself from Invasion.

German tactics of late have conformed fairly well to the policy laid duwn in the captured orders issued by Gen. Ludendorff. The German army fights, but makes little effort to gain ground and gives ground whenever its positions become too hot for comfort.

hold, that they have already decided on a retirement to the Hindenburg line, and are now engaged In making the allied advance as costly as possible.

But if the Germans go back, they will have a difficult time stuffing the German public with the theory that they went of their own free will. The "strategic retreat" has Its limits as an excuse for advancing toward the rear.

A retreat to the Hindenburg line will mean the surrender of all that was gained in the big spring offensive, and that offensive was part of a grand plan to use the accessions due to the Russian collapse in a blow that was to bring defeat to the allies and end the war. Nobody can make the German public believe that if the spring offensive was a great success, a further success can be gained by giving up what the first success won."

Letters From the People

"Drummers" Loyal.

Editor of The Tribune: In your issue of the 15th inst. a correspondent states that she "has heard of a number of instances where "trainmen and drummers" were carrying sugar secured from other sources to supplement the allowance furnished to guests on dining cars and in restaurants.

If this lady has been correctly informed. the instances of such practice must be rare indeed.

Being a member ot four commercial men's organizations, whose combined membership exceeds 200.000, and being associated with "trainmen and drummers" all of the time, I have never yet had this or any other breach of the food regulations to come under my observation. Furthermore, during the past two weeks, I have heard two commercial men suggest to hotellceeper8 in two small towns, who were still putting sugar bowls on their tables, to discontinue this practice, and in each instance the parties promised to do so.

Many of the "drummers," including this humble writer, voluntarily cut the use of their sugar in half when our sugar shortage was first called to their attention

year ago, and are

not only willing to continue this but will glady abstain from its use entirely if our "boys" need It or our government should request it.

The only motive in writing tnis is to counteract the wrong impression and reflection upon two of the most loyal and patriotic classes of our citizens, the "trainmen and drummers."

Astrology reads this as

most un

certain day. Venus and Mercury are in benefic asnpect. but Neptune is adverse early in the morning.

Day after day the stars are read as foreshadowing great responsibilities for women, who will accomplish much in new lines of effort.

This sign presaging large duties f»r women seem to indicate that they will work out many montysaving and laborsaving plans. There is an augury of novel lines of co-operation.

Theatres are well directed by the planets today and the coming season should be profitable to ventures in which women are interested.

This should be a lufcky day for the buying and wearing of new clothing. It is also a favorable sway for engaging women employes.

Friendly stars smile upon weddings and engagements today and there will be. many of both.

Neptune gives warning of an increase in crimes that include forgery, theft and false representation.

The sun in trine to Saturn In the horoscope of Serbia" promises great benefit to the country.

Mercury is in a place in the horoscope of the pope, which presages extraordinary activity.

AFTER SICKNESS

Mrs. Page Tells How Vino! Restored Her Strength and Stopped a Cough.

Brooklyn, Conn.—"Pneumonia left me weak, run-down and with a cough for which I doctored for six months without getting better. A friend from Virginia asked me to try Vinol. It healed my cough, gave me a good appetite, I sleep well and feel well and strong."—Mrs. Thomas Page.

Vino! owes its success in such cases to beef and cod liver peptones, Iron and manganese peptonates and glycerophosphates, the oldest and most famous body building and strength creating tonics known.

START THE BILE!

The bile in our bodies is necessary to digestion, nutrition and life. Yet, if not separated from the blood by the secreting action of the liver, it will poison the system and destrov life. Sometimes the liver gets sluggish and doesn't secrete bile normally. Then it's up to us to "start the bilV to make the torpid liver act." Perhaps the most popular preparation to take and one of the oldest is Carlst.ed's Liver Powder, which is free from alcohol and

has been a favorite household medicine for 25 years. A few doses are sufficient. It is used for constipation, sick headaches, chronic rheumatism, blood diseases and most stomach, liver, kidney and bladder troubles. Carlsted's Liver Powder is not unpleasant and should be taken occasionally to keep the liver active and prevent" biliousness. Two sizes—2-oz. bottle, 25c family Size, $1.
