The Growing Merface of Japan.

It should not be a difficult nor long job for Japan to reduce the German fortresses at Kiao Chau to submission. She captured Port Arthur, which was garrisoned by over 40,000 Russians

and aided by a large fleet, after a siege of several months. The German stronghold is garrisoned

by only about 4,000 men and is aided by only a few cruisers. The chances are all against Kiao Chau, therefore being unable to offer the same measure of resistance as was the case with Port

Arthur. Consequently a few weeks should see

this valuable point in the hands of the Japanese, j What then, as far as Japan's further participation in the war is concerned? One of the reasons given by the Japanese for entering the present great European struggle and extending it to Asia and the Pacific was that the presence of German war vessels in Pacific waters was hindering the commerce of Japan and of Japan's ally, England. Therefore, for this and for the further reason that Japan wanted Germany's influence permanently removed from China, she calmly invited the Kaiser to surrender Kiao Chau to her "to be held in trust" for China and to withdraw his few warships from Chinese waters. Obviously the only reply Germany could make to such an insulting ultimatum was war. And war it is, with the Japanese fleet already bombarding the German fortifications at Kiao Chau. Kiao Chau will fall, but there are still additional German possessions in the Pacific. She owns the Caroline Islands, with the single exception of Guam which the United States has owned as a valuable cable and fleet coaling station since it was occupied by us during the Spanish-Ameri

can war. Germany also owns two out of the three important islands in the Samoan group.- The

United States owns the third island in this group,

Tutuila, with the finest harbor in the Pacific, Pago Pago. This harbor forms another of the

important outer defenses of this country in the

Pacific to protect our western states from in vasion.

these points, the base of the Japanese menace to this country will have been moved four thousand

miles nearer our Pacific coast .

Japan in Asia is six thousand miles from San

Francisco. Japan in the Samoan Islands is but

twenty-three hundred miles from that city and less than that distance from the ' Hawaiian

Islands, our greatest fortified outpost.

If Japan seizes these other German posses

sions and thus brings her menacing fleet and army within a little over two thousand miles of

our Pacific coast, we will have England to thank

for this nearing perspective of the Japanese per

il to our country. England through its alliance

with Japan i directly responsible for inviting it

to join in the general assault on Germany.

England, who forced us by her tyranny to dissolve the tie that bound us over a hundred

years ago in the War of the Revolution

England, who by her insolent disregard of our rights as a nation forced us to compel her to recocmize them at the cannon's mouth in the

War of 1812.

England, who supported the South and

slavery in the great Civil War of '61-'65 by buying millions of dollars worth of southern bonds

in her insanely jealous desire to cripple perma

nently this great land by disunion; whose support alone enabled the South to prolong that ter

rible fratricidal struggle with its attendant great

loss of life and sorrow and suffering on both

sides of the line that is no more.

England, who allowed southern commerce

destroyers to arm and fit out in British ports

and go out on the seas carrying ruin and destruc

tion to all shipping flying the flag of the United

States, so that the British merchant marine

should reign supreme and be free from' the em

barrassing American competition.

England, who has showed her true feelings

toward the United States throughout our history

as a nation by such acts as those, now weakens

our defense against the Japanese peril by giving that nation the phance to seize German territory that will bring it within easy striking distance

of our Pacific gates.

If Japan does strike when we are unprepared

national foresight and the efforts of the misled and misleading peace-at-any-cost advocates among our fellow citizens, it is fortunate that

after we have recovered from the shock and surprise of the first onset and finally strike our

pace in battle, we will be able to more than recoup

the losses due to our unpreparedness and the everlasting hostility of our ex-mother country by taking away from her another of her daughters, the one to the north, Canada. For the United States can never afford to fight Japan unless it also fights Japan's ally, England, and makes that country pay back the principal with heavy interest of the losses her hostility and commercial jealousy have caused and still are causing this country.

Summer Constipation Dangerous. Infection and Insect Bites Dangerous. Mosquitoes, flies and other insects, which breed quickly in garbage pails, ponds of stagnant water, barns, musty places, etc., are carriers of disease. Every time they bite you they inject poison into your system from which some dread disease may result. Get a bottle of Sloan's Liniment. It is antiseptic and a few drops will neutralize the infection caused by Insect bites or rusty nails. Sloan's Liniment disinfects Cuts, Bruises and Sores. You cannot afford to be without it in your home. Money back If not satisfied. Only 25c. at your Druggist. .(Advertisement)

Thin People Can Increase Weight Thin men and women who would like to increasi their weight with 10

or 15 pounds of healthy "stay there" fat should try eating a little Sargol ;

with their meals for awhile and note results. Here is a good test worth trying. First weigh yourself and measure yourself. Then take Sargol one tablet with every meal for two weeks. Then weigh and measure yourself again. It isn't a question of how you look or feel or what your friends say or think. The scales and the tape measure will tell their own story, and most any thin man or woman can easily add from five to eight pounds in . the first fourteen days by following this simple direction. And best of all, the new flesh stays put. Sargol does not of itself make fat, but mixing with your food, it turns the fats , sugars and starches of .what you have eaten, into rich, ripe fatproducing nourishment for the tissues and blood prepares it in an easily assimilated form which the blood can readily accept. All this nourishment now passes away from your body as waste. But Sargol stops the waste and does it quickly and makes the fat producing contents of the very same meals you are eating now develop pounds and pounds of healthy flesh between your skin and bones. Sargol is safe, pleasant, efficient and inexpensive. Leo H. Fihe and other leading druggists in Richmond and vicinity sell it in large boxes forty tablets to a package on a guarantee of weight increase or money back. .(Advertisements
