that D. W. Griffith has shown himself to be the master stage director of the world. "The Birth of a Nation" is not a photo play in the accepted sense of that word.

SHIS HIS PRESCRIPTION

HAS POWERFUL INFLUENCE OVER RHEUMATISM

Discoverer Tells Druggists Not to Taa a Cent of Anyone's Ioney Unlets Allenrh'.i Completely Banishes AU Kheumatlc Pains and Twinges. Mr. James H. Allen suffered for years with rheumatism. Manv times this terrible disease left him helpless and unable to work. He linally decided, after years of ceaseless study, that no one can be free from rheumatism until the accumulated imprit ies. commonly called uric acid deposits!, were dissolved In the joints and muscles and expelled from the body. With this idea in mind he consulted physicians, made experiments and rinal!v compounded a prescription that quickly and completely ban4shej evrv sign and svmptom of rheumatism from his system. Hp ffpetv gave his discovery to ethers who took it. w ith w ha i .might be called marvelous success. After years of urging he decided to let sufferers everywhere know about bis discovery through the newspapers. Druggists handle Allenrhu in this vicinity with the understanding that they will freely return the purchase money to ail who state they received no benefit. Adv.

great increase in wages generally in the industries throuR bout- the Calumet district. The men have felt that If was impossible for them to longer remain in the employ of the company unless some relief eouid be given them, and although the present wage scale did not expire until June, l?lf, the Company was compelled .to recognize the Justi-e of th" men's complaint and to do what It could f.w'ard rem'dyinv during- the past winter, and lisp great general in rease of r.pera'inir cost. It has been Jtr.possible to award the men any increase or bonus payment not contingent upon the cmpunv's rereiving the light to iha;ge straight five cent fare. The Gary Street Railway Company filed its apr 1 ia t 'on with the Publ'e Service Commission In February , asking permission to charge n straight five cent fare in th cities of Gary, Hammond and East Chicago and to diseontinue the. sale of six fcr a quarter tickets. The Commission lias not yet set the matter for hearinsr. but it is hoped by the employes and the Company that an early hearing may he had The foremtssinn has al-adv

1s permitted to chaifre a straight five cent fare for no greater service. There is not n industry In the Calumet district which has not been able to increase the price received frm the sale of !'s product from fifty to two hund ed per cent, while th Street Railway Company has been struggling for permission to rharge an Increase of approximately 15 per rent for its product, transportation, and durlrpr such time cost of operation has so enormnus'r increised that It Is generally row recognized that six cents is a reasonable fare in view of all present conditions. In 'act. In some instances an eight ff nt fare has le.n permitted by a Public Service Commi.-ison. rnlt Pei-lsion. Now that th" employes of tb Street Railway Company have reached an agreement with 'he Company regardins; a war bonus payment contingent upon the granting of the five cent fare, they anxiously await the decision of the Commission and will bend every effort to assist the Company to obtain what they believe is necessary fot the welfare cf their own interests as well as that of .the rwners of fV property.

forty v.u.-s oiu end must be clashed m iioricomha'ani-s. iiorec vr, this battle is not over in a day. sinee March 11 it has

I tasted luily thfo weeks. The lighting

season fi.r l'GS will include at bast 20u days. Nobody outsidfe of official circles know s what this liyht ing i-s costing us eacii day. Obviously, the published return of a thousand British casualties for a wet Is camonfiajt and I do not myself cloabt that American gallantry will prove mora expensive than appears at the time to bo the case. Tour men have played a larger part in stemming' tcs German tide than is yet recognized. And, however that may be, f,.r many days, recently i'. is clear that the Kriti'-h toll has been more than 1,000 Rritisi, casualties. Whatever the number actually is, you have only to multiply it. by 200 to find out ho iv S'-rious is the. wastage involved .n such hitter lighting. In the first two years of war, French sacrifices were greater than the British. It was not so in 1317 and is even less the case today. For Britain this battle is what President Wilson calls the acid test. You can not estimate that we shall los this year fewer than one to on and a half million men or half our available reserves of 2,700,000. Rut this dots not fully explain thu situation. I htie said that .3,700.000 men may be .available for' the western front. Of these, -only one-third can be &t any given moment in the front line. The others arc moving guns, cocking: food, running railroads arid so on. Hence, the raising of the military age in Britain to fifty years. Future Is at Stake. We are not thinking only of next weak, vital thongh that is. My Jmpression Is that we are deliberately holding the lines with as few men as possible, and each man ready to die at his post. We hav6 to consider the future, the certainty of other German drives, the hope of a final counter aggression.
