he would claim any exemption from draft because of dependents, said "Hell,

EVER since THE TIMES ran the story about the most efficient saloon

in Indiana our efficient war correspondent, Hennery Coldbottle, has failed

to show up, and the suspicion is that Hennery is verifying the efficiency.

WE don't discuss the Russian revolution at our supper table as we can't pronounce the name of the leader Tscheidze and, being a paragrapher, the missus expects us to know everything.

FOR heaven's sake, let the government adopt thi3 suggestion from the Examiner: "The postoffice officials should take good care that Mr. Hoover's advice to the brewers to water their product is not sent by mistake to tha milkmen."

TO show you that we're up on such thing3, the girls thi3 summer are wearing Russian ruhashka sweaters, habutaye petticoat3, gros de londres suits, washable gabardine skirts, and trimmed, white malin3 with dainty georgette facings.

BRIGHT 'S DISEASE. . Announcement of a new and revolutionary method of treating Bright's disease was made by Dr. Albert A. Epstein of Mount Sinai hospital at the Hotel Biltmore. Instead of a disorder of the kidneys solely. Dr. Epstein held it is due to changes in the blood- Dr. Epstein put the patient on a high protein diet, bending his energies to overcoming the disturbances of the blood. New York World. The preceding paragraph is taken from a report of a clinic of the American Medical association, where a serum for anthrax was demonstrated and where an ether that is an antiseptic was used. But most interesting is the news concerning the treatment of kidney trouble- It reverses the treatment of a half century and sets the cause in an altogether new light-

THE BULGAR A BAD ACTOR. A well known Greek citizen calls attention to the fact that many persons who here represent themselves as Greeks are not Greeks at all but rather are low grade Bulgarians- It is well the distinction is made, and the matter is not only one of public interest but public concern as well. For while he are not now at war with Bulgaria we are verging on it, Bulgaria being an ally of Germany. Since this is so it might be well to list these BuiEars and keep close tab on them. For essentially they are bad actors. They are not citizens and did not com? to this country with any intention of remaining. For the Bulgar, once he has acquired from $1,000 to $2,000, flits back to Bulgaria. ,

THE EDITOR IX WAR TIME. . As Tom Bodine, a Paris (Mo.) editor, says: "It not infrequently happens that after one accustomed to writing fails fully and completely in saying that whifh he would say, but cannot owing to the multitude of distractions born of some great emergency, that another is able to say it for him. When thi3 happens he feels a senfe of unspeakable gratitude, and this i3 the editor's apology for printing the following extracts from a letter written him by a friend, himself an editorial writer of note, now living in the east: " 'Reading between the lines of my Mercury, and with a little sadness because of it, I discern that you have suffered the same fate as the rest of us. That i6 that you, along with all thinking men, are paying in full the tremendous spiritual penalty exacted- by this war- I see, or fancy that I see, the signs of that same weariness 'l myself feel because of inability to see even a step beyond all this darkness of a world of utter chaos, and now and then that same resentment, because, try as you will, the suprcmest tragedy in world history not only baffles you, but because, at the same time it holds fast your interest and with a terrible fascination lures your thought from every other human consideration. The recoil is distressing all the more so because of that over-stimulation which came with the beginning cf the great conflict. Then we dreamed dreams of social reconstruction

and of a race purged and regenerated, but now only stark, black emptiness confronts us. It were as well to look Into the witch's cup as to make an

effort to read a solution of the human riddle in this maelstrom of human misery. Materialism may be shaken from its strong foundations as a re

sult or it may emerge more firmly intrenched than before no man can tell. Divining the forces, blind or conscious, in whose grip the entire world is struggling is not possible- Even the chancellories of Europe .though they

precipitated the war, can grasp only its superficial aspects, are ignorant as to its portents, and can no more than guess at the sweeping changes it

may entail. All prophecies so far have failed, and that adds to the grow

ing feeling of fatalism and the belief that civilization itself was foredoomed to another submergence. Wherever one turns he faces futility. As to how

proiounaiy events nave already anectea the world the books that were

written before the war began and the things men held to as being the

truth indicate. In the light of conditions as they are, with alL that we cher

ished seemingly in ruins at our feet, all then said or written reads like prattle of children, and we turn with increasing interest to the perplexities about us, searching for that single "motif that may unlock the clue," only to be disappointed in turn. "June will come rose in hand" to Paris again this year, a3 is her wont, but I know you will fail to see her and that as a result we are to have no sweetheart idyls, no "bye-bye" songs, no pictures of Arcady drowsing beneath lifted steeples only the draft and the drun -beat, and measured feet. And to me here lies the supreme tragedy of war. It engrosses, it absorbs, it drives into exile all that is tender and intimate and good and beautiful in human living. I have tried to find in its heroisms and abnegations some compensation but cannot. Amid a universal slaughter death even has ceased to be a factor for human spiritualization and where millions' rot nothing matters. I have tried to be a jingo, and like you have failed, seeing in narrow nationalism only a dangerous, devilish egotism. I have no fervors but view our part in the war as a nasty job which it is our duty to perform. It is ours to end the infamy because no one else can end it. I am thinking nothing, hoping nothing, am merged in that coma that has come upon the world as a result of a desecration of human souls and bodies such as the earth has never known before-' "
