As to Our Own Needs and Interests Breathing the true spirit of American patriotism, sane and logical is" the editorial of the Chicago Tribune, in which it comments on the principles underlying submarine warfare. It follows in its entirety: With regard to the submarine, it is to the interest of this nation to have freedom to use it to prevent the transports of military supplies. . With regard to the sale of military supplies, it is imperative that the United States maintain the right to sell in order that the right to buy may be protected. The use of the submarine in interfering with the transport of military supplies can be made consistent with humanity only if such transport be recognized as a military service in which noncombatants cannot be employed and which cannot be used for civilian purposes. We know that passenger ships might supply an enemy with munitions when our prospects of success in war depended upon our ability to cut the line of supply. If the transport were recog, nized as a military operation, the men engaged in this service would be rated precisely as men on a warship or troopship. The' difference between a troopship and a ship carrying guns and ammunition is none in the fact of war, but usage has permitted noncombatant's to travel on the munition carrier, and humanity demands the protection of the noncombatants. If in the day of our emergency ammunition and gun carriers can be protected by passengers, and the transport thus obtain all the safeguards accorded permeable shipping, this nation will be imposed nror ' If there .

"ALPINE" SOLDIERS TRAINED FOR WORK AMONG MOUNTAINS

ROME, July 23. The Italian war has revealed to the world a new array, "The Alpines." Thf Alpine troops are strictly an Italian institution ami, with I he Bersaplior!. form a picked corps. The defense t 'i tht- Alps is entrusted to them. From the Maritime Alp.-; to the Carnic, thirty-fiv?' thousand Alpines, winter and E-ummer, nft'tlo among the enowrapprd rocks of every pass that from France, Switzerland or Austria, leads into Tt.ilv. Just now with the reserves, their mi m her has been doubled. F!ra' ct all. an Alpine soldier is a son of the Alps. They are recruited there and are, organized into battalions. Contrary to the general custom prevailing in the army, where a regiment is composed of men recruited from every corner of the country, the Alpine battalions include invariably men of the same district, and they serve in the mountains at whose feet they were born and brought up. How They are Trained. The Alpine srldier learned the roads and tracks leading up to every peak when he was a very little boy and took the weekly supply of bread, cheese, salicd meats and tobacco to his fa

ther, who was tending; a herd of sheep

man base on the Atlantic coast of Mexico, or a Japanese base on the Pacific coast of Mexico, and if our fleet had been withdrawn before superior force or had been subdued by it, we should have under present sea law to submit to the process by which the enemy resupplied his troops. Put three Chinamen on a Japanese ship full of ammunition bound for our coasts, and our. submaijnes would have to let the ship pass unharmedby present sea law. The means of overcoming the enemy by preventing the shipment of supplies might be in our hands, but not be usable because the munitions were carried, in peaceable ships which our 'submarines must stop and search. Our interests do not require that we surrender the principle that noncombatants shall be safe on peaceable ships. They do require a redefinition of the term peaceable ship and the recognition of the fact that a ship carrying guns and ammunition is no more a peaceable ship than one carrying troops. It may be objected that arms and ammunition are only a part of contraband and that to recognize the" transport of war supplies as a military service would put all trade in that classification. The answer is that what is contraband and what is not gets definition from time to time, usually being stipulated arbitrarily by one of the belligerents, and that the classification of war supplies culd be made so as to put the destructive instruments in one class and the instruments of sustenance in another. Both are of military importance, but the shipment of large quantities of ammunition and guns is peculiarly an operation of war with no relation to normal commerce. Our other interest is to protect the commerce in war supplies because we know that we shall never be equipped for an emergency and must go into whatever markets are open for what we need need. The principles which conform not only to our interests but to equity will provide that the transport of guns and ammunition shall be regarded as a military movement and that military supplies may be purchased by any belligerent able to obtain them from any neutral able to sell them. The Germans insist upon their right to interrupt the transport of supplies and protest against our sale of them. The allies uphold our right to sell them and protest against the German methods of interference. Each belligerent .considers only his own needs and interests. It is our turn to do a little thinking about our own needs and interests.

In a previous article, it was stated that nearly everybody has tuberculosis at some time or other during his lifetime. Autopsies on people have shown that hardly a single human being reaches mature life without a scar on his lungs or elsewhere showing where tuberculosis had attacked him, and he, by his normal resistance and vitality, had warded off the continuation of the attack. Because tuberculosis is so wide spread, every man, woman and child should give the most careful attention to those signs of the disease which point out danger. The treacherous disease germs may enter the body in early childhood and may not cause any serious trouble for ten or fifteen years. Then, all of a sudden, when the body is weakened by overwork, worry, sickness, or bad living and working conditions, these sleeping germs wake up and become active in the destruction of the lungs or other organs. The working man or woman, therefore, cannot be too careful in the safeguarding of health and in watching out for those symptoms which indicate that the disease of tuberculosis is actually present. What, then, are some of the danger signals and what should be done about them? (1) First of all, there is a cough that hangs on and will not clear up. If it lasts for a month or longer, it is a red light, a danger signal, which you cannot, afford to ignore. It may start with wet feet or some other insignificant circumstance, but no matter how the cough started, if it does not. go away, see your doctor at once. Colds frequently weaken the bodily tone and resistance, so that it is easy for the lurking germs to get a foothold. (2) Loss of iveight, accompanied by a loss of appetite, and a certain amount of "stomach trouble" is another danger signal, which you must not pass unheeded. Sometimes loss of weight may come from some other cans than tuberculosis, but it pays to be on your guard. You may not have a cough, and you may experience very little trouble except a sort of chronic weariness. You ough to know what your normal weight should be. If you begin to lose five, ten or more pounds without' any apparent reason, look for sound medical advice at once. Sometimes with loss of weight goes a loss of appetite, and trouble with bowels and stomach, even running to diarrhoea. Whether you are losing much weight or not, look out for this danger signal. It is a warning that something is wrong. (3) Then there is that run-down, all-the-time-tired feeling. Most people have days when they feel unusually tired, for some reason or other. Such an occasional period of "spring fever" or "lazy liver" may not be at all dangerous, but when every day for two or three weeks you hate to get up and dread to do anything but lie around and be lazy, there is danger ahead. This is Nature's warning to you that some enemy inside your body is sapping your vitality. Don't ignore the warning signal! (4) Anyone of the three symptoms just mentioned may occur singly or all of them may come at one time. When, to any or all, there is added a fever in the late afternoon or during the night, accompanied possibly by sweats, beware of this danger signal. It is a bright red flag which Nature waves before you, cautioning you to give immediate heed. Anyone's temperature may rise at times, some people's more easily than others. But when for a week every afternoon about four or five o'clock you've, felt feverish, or when night after night you wake up in a dripping sweat, you may rest assured that, there is nothing normal about that. Go to your doctor at once and tell him about it. You may have no cough and no other sign of disease, and this may be the only warning you'll get. Give heed to it at. once. (5) If you have a cough and in spitting you find streaks of blood in your suptum, you may rest assured that something is wrong. It may not be a direct sign of tuberculosis, but whatever it is, you should attend to it at once. You cannot afford to waste time putting it off. Nature may give you that more emphatic warning of the presence of tuberculosis, a hemorrhage of the lungs. If so, don't be scared unduly. It is a danger signal, and if you heed it, you may be safe. There are other danger signals, some which you can see and some which only a trained physician can detect. Your safety lies in getting medical attention as eiarly as possible. Tuberculosis can be cured if it is discovered in time. The time to.discover it is when the tisst symptoms show themselves. Don't take chances with Death. You'll lose every time. Go to a good doctor, if you notice any of these danger signals, and insist that he examine you stripped to the waist. If you can't afford a doctor, go to a free clinic and be examined. It may cost a few dollars to be examined, but it may save you hundreds of dollars, untold suffering, and possibly your life and that of your wife and family. "SAFETY FIRST" is a motto that applies to tuberculosis, especially when it is first, showing itself. NOTE this is the Fourth of a Series of Five Articles Prepared by The National Association for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis, New York City.

WAKENS TO FIND SNAKE ON ARM

ECONOMY, Ind.. July 23. While resting in the field the ether day, Martin Hill, who is employed on the O. L. Hiatt farm, fell asleep. He was awakened by a numbness in his right arm. Opening his eyes he saw that a big woods snake had coiled part of its body about the tree under which he Mas resting and the rest abou'. hia arm. Being unable to pull his arm from the snake's coils, Hill severed th reptile's body with his knife. The snake measured 6 feet.

P. O. EXAMINATION

Frank Wilson, secretary of the board of United States civil service examiners, has been notified that the annual clerk-carrier examination ordinarily held in October, will not be hell in Richmond this year and other cities as it is quite likely that a register sufficient to meet the needs of the service will result from the examination of July 24. Should the necessity arrive a special examination will be held in October.

British Diplomacy; Its Danger to U. S.

Hugo Wuelflng of Indianapolis, has written an article on the danger of British diplomacy, for the German-American Alliance, which has been widely scattered. Hans Koll has submitted the dissertation for publication. The first installment follows; i It has actually come to pass that the Influence of British diplomacy has brought our country to the point where we may have to join the Italians, Japanese, Russians and French to fight for ENGLAND'S MASTERY OF THE SEAS. Much has been said about the system of the German empire, but the power of British diplomacy is infinitely greater. Consider the Russians, f. L whose every interest is antagonistic to the British still they fought, bound by a treaty; or the Belgians who sacrificed themselves trying to protect England against an attack from North Sea ports; or Italy, where neither the king nor the better class of the population wished war. Still British gold, working through the press and hired agitators, succeeded in the Italians tearing their SACRED TREATY OF ALLIANCE (without even an excuse oT the slightest provocation) in spite of the blood money Austria finally offered for peace. BRITISH GOLD had left the government the alternative of war or a revolution! ITALY CHOSE WAR! War! All terrors of hell turned loose on a country! Sickness, death, horror carried into every family of the land! The flower of the male population blind, crippled or dead, millions of women widowed, children made orphans! ' And we walk along the same precipice. If an excuse can be found or an accident happenc or be created, British influence will blow the sparks into a conflagration, our jingo press will work day and night, orators will rage before inf lammed audiences; one step too far, and we may plunge into it! - ' Is it not every citizen's DUTY TO SOUND THE DANGER SIGNAL? War with whom? With a nation which has always been friendly to us, a nation which has absolutely no interests which could conflict with ours, a nation which for obvious reasons never could threaten us! And war FOR whom? For our own interest? Certainly not! For ENGLAND'S MASTERY OF .THE SEAS ONLY! Of the seas, those international highways by the use of which alone we can communicate with the rest of the civilized peoples!. For it is England, and not Germany, that claims the seas as her property, the mastery of the seas as her EXCLUSIVE RIGHT. What reasons are given for the severance of diplomatic relations or in the last end-r war? - ' 1 VIOLATIONS OF INTERNATIONAL LAW. Violations of international rights on sea. If this be so we must consider what has happened to international law arid to our rights as neutrals on sea. Here it is in chronological order: ; ' England declared tb whole North sea a war zone, strewed it with floating mines, and closed it contrary to international law. All our objections are overruled by England. The English take one American ship after another into their harbors ; they take prisoners from neutral ships, order the skippers around at will all bur protests are absolutely ignored. They arbitrarily change contraband lists to suit their exclusive interest without the slightest regard for our rights, with the usual smile for our protests. ' VIOLATE NEUTRALITY. They enter neutral South American ports, and sink German ships apologizing with a derisive smile! Then they cynically declare that they desire to sarve the civil population of Germany out. STARVING IS HUMANE WITH THE BRITISH they keep India in submission by it, they starved the Irish population out of house and home, and only recently 26,000 women and children had to die when the brave Boers had defeated the British on the battlefield. The horror of the British undertaking to starve 70 million women and children finally forced the Germans to declare a war zone around England for submarine warfare. They declared that it was solely an act of retaliation. INTERNATIONAL LAW GIVES THE RIGHT OF RETALIATION. The Germans declared that the neutrals had accepted the abo-" lition of international law without any action under protests of course and that America not only permitted the trade in murderous war machinery and ammunition, but that American millionaires extended this trade in such a way that the UNITED STATES IS PRACTICALLY THE BRITISH SUPPLY BASE FOR AMMUNITION. Still they called attention to the dangers of mines and submarines and gave the neutrals two weeks to go out of the war zone. America protested. Germany declared she would reconsider, provided the British would permit the reestahlishment of international law. We submitted this to Britain who said: "No." Submarine warfare goes on. The British thereupon forbid us to even import goods from Germany or even German goods from neutral ports: And again we protest with the usual result. To Be Continued.

Tires That Fell

Looked Like Goodyears at the Start

Don't trust looks in buying tires. Great tires and skimped tires, in plain treads, look about alike. The vast differences are hidden. The Goodyear extras on our output this year will cost us $1,635,000. That's for five great features used by no one else,andfor other features commonly employed. Yet you cannot see them. In addition, it costs us $1,000,000 to make our AllWeather tread double-thick. That means deep, enduring grips. Yet dozens of regular treads, with shallow designs, pass for anti-skids. Snap

Judgment Don t buy a tire cn somebody's snap judgment. He may have

had rare luck. Better trust the seasoned judgment of motorists in general. Goodyear tires

outsell any other after 16 years. And this year their good repute is adding 50 to .our users. Goodyear values are impossible without the Goodyear out put. Despite our extras, our price reductions in two years have totaled 45. This year's pricereduction saves our users ' about $5,000,000. Every Goodyear extra means more mileage on the average. It means less trouble, less expense to you, else we would omit it. But you cannot get those features without buying Good

year tires. Five of them are found in Goodyears only. Any dealer will supply you.

Most folks forget that the kidneys, like the bowels, get sluggish and clogged and need a flushing occasionally, else we have backache and dull misery in . the kidney region, severe headaches, rheamatic twinges, torpid liver, acid stomach, sleeplessness and all sorts of bladder disorders. You simply must keep your kidneys active and clean, and the moment you feel an ache or pain in the kidney region, get about four ounces of Jad Salts from. any good drug store here, take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This, famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and is harmless to flush clogged kidneys and stimulate them to normal activity. It also neutralizes the acids in the urine so it no longer irritates, thus ending bladder disorders.

neys clean, thus avoiding serious com

plications. A well-known local druggist says he sells lots of Jad Salts to folks who believe in overcoming kidney trouble while it is only trouble. (Advertisement.)
