riEW WEAPON AGAINST SUBS

WASHINGTON, Jan. 22. The "nontlchochet shell, a weapon as deadly i s the depth charge, is the newest device perfected by the navy ordnance experts for use against the German submarines. The new shell dives when It .strikes tjfce surface of the water instead of bouncing an do the ordinary missies used in either naval or coast defense artillery. In addition, through using a new fuse, the charge can be made to explode on contact with a solid surface under the water or at a predetermined depth. The value of the latest anti-submarine weapon lies in the fact that shots which fall slightly short will be of as much affect as those which register direct hits. Pursuing its course beneath the water, the shell will explode against the sides of the submerged submarine. Similarly, when these 6hells are aimed at a periscope of a submarine, headed bow-on, there is a material increase in the chances that on overshot will take effect Bomewhere along the hull. The r.avy department has forbidden the publication of details of the invention, but it is known that the British and French admiralties also have adopted it.

NEW FOOD CARDS TO BE ISSUED

WASHINGTON, Jan. 22. With a renewed appeal to American housewives for food conservation the food administration, will issue probably this week a new food card asking for one meatless day, two porkless days and two wheatless days each week. Food administration officials said there would be nothing compulsory about it for households, although it is thought by a bill now pending to make the days ot denial mandatory for hotels, restaurants and other public eating places. The food administration will depend on housewives to accept the days of self denial without the mandate of the law.

Cakes From Home Cheer Hearts of Soldiers, Writes Russell Joy

Russell Joy, Richmond man, stationed at Camp Shelby, Miss., doesn't want to do without cakes and candies while he is in the cantonment. Neither do the other boys, he says. Joy is not in favor of the ruling of the State Council of Defense that persons keep those things for the ones at home. The Council thinks the men are provided with everything necessary to their comfort. Joy writes the boys in the making

are well fed, but believes that it is ( the sentiment among the boys in camp ; that it is not now necessary to de-! prive them of a few dainties that home i people are sending them. Later it will j

While Germanay labors to make even more terrible her undersea war-, fare by developing the U-boat to greater capabilities for frightfulness, France and the United States are far from- idle. The photographs show interiors of two new submersibles one French and one American. The French, of

which three pictures are shown, is bigger than the former French submersibles and is already in action. The American craft is a new idea in submarines. It is built for a crew of two men and they are shown in position in the pit in the lower right picture. This type of craft is expected to rev-

olutionize submarine building as well

as subsea warfare. It is a circular boat and measures only 2.f metres in diameter. It can be worked either horizontally or vertically, has a displacement of six tons and is easily submerged in a few minutes by pumps. It can remain submerged for seventy-two hours and speeds up under water to four kilometres an hour.

"The lead used in setting type will have more to do with ending the war than lead made into ammunition. "This -war, from statistics, has shown the pen is mightier than the sword." Rodger W. Babson of Boston, head of the largest statistical Srm in the world, was speaking. His business is to collect facts and figures on industries and localities, as Dun and Bradstreet do on individuals and corporations. He maintains offices in the leading cities of Europe. Where he obtains the information on which he bases many of his conclusions, he is not at liberty to disclose. Would Mobilize for Publicity. "The best advertising and publicity brains of the country should be mobilized on a business basis, not on the gratis basis, as it now is," said Mr. Babson. "This government cannot expect to get its advertising done for nothing that is absolutely foolish." The Boston statistical expert thinks America should adopt German methods of advertising and propaganda, in America and Europe, including Germany itself. In Berlin he says all the best advertising brains of the nation ore mobilized. Mr. Babson says the German publicity department has expanded until now it occupies three buildings. The last addition to it was made about the time America entered the war, and had to do with propaganda in the enemy countries. Eureau Keeps People Happy. In one building he says is the department to "keep the working people of Germany happy." Posters were made for factories and little human interest stories written to be put in the pay envelopes of the workers. The German people are wedded to the kaiser simply because he is the best advertiser in the world. The second building, Mr. Babson said, is used by the publicity men to carry on their propaganda in the newspapers of the neutral countries. The third building, he said, is devoted to propaganda work in enemy countries. "Germany's victory in Russia was not a military one, but gained through propaganda " Mr. Babson continued. "The kaiser attempted for two or three years to win by his guns and accomplished nothing. Then he put his publicity department to work and won. Publicity Won In Italy. "The same was true in Italy. Germany had no idea of making the drive it did until the kaiser learnd of the defection between the Italian working people and capital. Both Germany and Austria were failing in military strength. By means of propaganda Germany caused friction between labor and capital; then 1 her armies cracked Italy. "So it has really been Germany's writers and not her warriors who have crushed Russia and cracked Italy." Mr. Babson said Germany did not begin propaganda work in the enemy countries with vigor until recent months. The publicity work previously had been limited to neutral countries and to the people at home to prevent a revolution. "Germany does not expect to win a

military vistory in this war," the speaker continued. "Her hope today is to bring about internal troubles, between capital and labor, in England

France, Italy and the United States.

j "Why do we not adopt Germany's j own methods? I am not a military,

man. I think we can lick Germany by ! pounding her,' but we cannot bring'

about a revolution by pounding her. A revolution can be brought only by publicity. ;

REMARKABLE STATEMENT ABOUT KIDNEY MEDICINE There is no medicine which we handle that gives such good results as your Swamp-Root. Many of our customers have informed us at different times that they have derived great benefit from its use. There was one case in particular which attracted a great deal of attention in this neighborhood early last Spring, as the gentleman's life was despaired of and two doctors treating him for liver and kidney trouble were unable to give him any relief. ' Finally a specialist from St. Louis was called in but failed to do him any good. I at last induced him to try your Swamp-Root and after taking it for three months, he was attending to hi3 business as usual and is now entirely well. This case has been the means of creating an increased demand for your Swamp-Root with us. Very truly yours, L. A. RICHARDSON, Druggist, May 27, 1916. Marine, Illinois.

unquestionably be a wise move to curtail these gifts when the boys are transported across the seas, on account of a shortage of tonnage and the length of time it takes for packages to reach the boys. "Conservation like charity begins at home. When the people at home are compelled to discontinue the consumption of trivial dainties then the boys in camp and soldiers will gladly submit to the denial. 'The boys in camp are thoroughly in harmony with all conservation efforts to help win the ' war. Their needs along the line of staple foodstuffs are absolutely nil. But I believe that it Is the sentiment among the boys in the camp that it Is not now necessary. "In all your commendable conservation efforts do not forget the soldiers. Let us all conserve as a unit and not as classes. The soldier is offering up his all to his country so be generous and spare him a few simple remembrances from home. Not for their worth or value but from the standpoint of being able to add a little sunshine and cheer from home. "Yours for our country's and common cause."
