Ti e plan of a leaRue of nations

world, Is t' e greatest Rirt that has
beon offt-rcd to humnnfty since Cain
Kptlled the Brut blood outside the

Thry were hiHi words which were
writu n on the banners or America's
itlis n army that srnt the khaki le
fcfcni Into battle. No beautiful talk of
plari"ng a flap on foroiRn Boll, no
threat of far-flung frontiers, no prom
ise of booty In new provinces or spoil
from the strong boxes of defeated
kings. The men that Jammed the
transport's hold.i, that cro-vded the
box rare, that marched up against
Machine gun and shrapnel, were told
that they were making the world
not America, nor East Orunpte, nor
California, but the world safe for
democracy In a war apalnst war.
Through the the dirt and sweat of
the endless hikes, the mud, the shell
lire, there was not much talk of poli
tics. It was Just, "We're here because
we're here."
Then one cay In t?ve morning It
was over, No more bis 2b, no more
Ms. no more top to go over Just
waiting, and some of us tt In the
billets and began to think. We saw
the curs in the ranks, the battalion
that could assemble only a handful,
the section that left the echelon full
and came back half a dozen strong.
And some of us began to wonder ifa

"1 see everywhere men In the
Aiixiican uniform," said President
WHson Saturday, "Thoso men came
in'o the war after we had uttered our
purpose. They came as crusaders, not
i' errly to win a war, but to win a
cause."
And now we know that It is true
that the high words wrlt'en on our
banners have been copied' into the
book of the world's conscience "In

His wfe, Lena, was never idle, and
looked upon her hUBband, tbe trifling

could never explain to herself why

as to ii'arry him. Hence she was al
ways anxious to make the most
Ilii visible excuse for any of his short

directed. One summer day, when
the noonday sun was broiling down
Upon a small cornfield, and Lena was
vigorously hoeing, a passerby in

porch attempting to "Sddle," was
not hoeing the corn.

Not a Bite of
Breakfast Until
You Drink Water
Says a glass 'of hot water and
phosphate prevents Illness '
and keeps us fit
Just as coal, when It burns. Wvo'J
behind a certain amount of Incom
bustible material in the form of ashes,
bo tbe food and drink taken day after
day leavea In the alimentary canal a
certain amount of Indigestible ma
terial, which If not completly elimina
ted from the system each day, be
comes rood for the millions of bacteria
which Infest the bowels. From this
mass of left-over waste, toxins and
ptomaln-llke ikjUoub are formed and
sucked into the blood.
Men and women who caa't get feel
Ing right must begin to take inside
baths. Before eating breakfast each
morning drink a glass of real hot
water . with a teaspoonful of lime
stone phosphate tn It to wash out of
the thirty feet of bowels the previous
day's accumulation of poisons and
toxins and to keep the entire alimen
tary canal clean, pure and fresh.
Those who are subject to sick head
ache, colds, biliousness, constipation,
others who wake up with bad taste,
foul breath, backache, rheumatic stiff
ness, or have a sour, gassy stomach
after meals, are urged to get a quarter
pound of limestone phosphate from
the drug store, and begin practicing
Internal sanitation. This will coBt
very little, but is sufficient to make
anyone an enthusiast on the subject.
Remember inside bathing Is more
Important than outside bathing, be
cause 'the skin pores do not absorb
Impurities Into the blood, causing poor
health, while the bowel pores do.
Just aa soap and hot water cleanses,
sweetens and freshens the skin, so
hot water and limestone phosphate
act 6a the stomach, liver, kidneys aad
eWVfklft. .

When you darken your hair wWfoSage
Tea and Sulphur, no one can tell, be
cause it's done so naturally, so evenly.
Preparing this mixture, though, at home
is muggy and troublesome. For 50 cents
you Cyi buy at any drug store the ready-to-use
preparation, improved by thc,addi
tion of other ingredients, called "WyetoV
Sage and Sulphur Compound." You just
dampen a sponge or soft brush with it
snd draw this through your hair, taking
one small strand at a time. By morning
all gray hair disappears, and, after an
other application or two, your hair be
comes beautifully darkened, glossy and
luxuriant.
Gray, faded hair, though no disgrace,
is a sign of old age, and aa we all de
sire a youthful and attractive appear
anoe, get busy at once with Wyetb's Sage
and Sulphur Compound and look years

s a delightful toilet requisite and not a
medicine. It is not intended for the cure,
mitigation or prevention of disease.

Reports from the different counties
of the state to the Headquarters uti
lise that fine progress ha been made.
Hedges are rapidly being secured
through the local societies? but to put
Nebraska again the first state of the
Union we must all pledge ourselves to
purchase the same number of stamps
for each month of 1919 M we did for
If 18. Our slogan la, "Don't Quit.
HniBh It."
Mr. Chorles T. Kountze, State Di
rector, says that he feels sure the
Nebraska people realise that our Gov
ernment lnumt be supported with the
necessary fundi to see that our sol
diers continue to receive the same
are and comfort that they had last
year and that they receive It until ev
ery Inst man Is home and returned to
civil life. He fays. "Our Slogan this
year Is, "Don't Quit Finish It.'" In
order to make that true every man,
woman and child must do their full
f-hare In this campaign. Remember
that our soldier did a glorious thing
by winning the war as they did. They
saved us lives and money Instead of
two million more men going over,
two million nre coming home. Mr
Kountze says. "It cost us a lot to get
them over, but It Is worth much more
to have them back, Buy War Savings
stamps and see thnt .they get hack."
The Treasury Department has re
quested that the societies remain In
tsct. Assistant Secretary Franklin
states thnt there Is very Important
work for them to do. especially at the
present time, In rnlclng the necessary
funds which the Government nov
needs. Phms nre nlso well under wny
nt Washington and the Stale Head
jnnrters In which the Societies will
have an Important part in communltv
service. These plans when fully de
veloped will mnke the soclelles tho
headquarter for each section, not
only for Governmental service, but lo
cnl servlci The members of the so
cieties are assured that this work will
be of extreme Interest and ralue t
them. The work for the societies at
the present Is to seonre pielg" for
War RnvlPgs Stamps.
This County did splendid work In
1918. We can do It again and slioufd.
This Is a movement to promote wise
spending, intelligent saving and safe
Investments.. Let's make this a year
of thankful1 "thrift. Make your pledge
now and begin buying War-Savings
Stamps.

Oh, yes, back in France we used
tosay, "La guerre flnl"; up here In
Germany we say, "Der Krleg 1st ka-
putt." It means the same, except
that "kaputt" means an unsatisfac
tory finish. Have been here lo-Co-
blenz. longer than I have in any one
place since I left Plattsburg. Am
getting so" I know the town pretty
well. It Isn't a much larger - city
than Lincoln, after all. But you can
see a great many things here you
can't see An Lincoln, and there are a
great many more beautiful buildines
and small parks, etc., than there are
in Lincoln. But, Just the same, I'd
rather live In Nebraska than In any
county, district or Stadt I have seen
since crossing the Missouri river.
I suppose you will ihink it strange
that we are studying the German
language, but we are, quite a number
of us, two large classes. In the
night schools for the American sol
diers here they teach about every
thing all common and high school
studies, including German, French
and Spanish. I chose German be
cause I had had some in high school,
and I thought I might be able , to
speak it by the time we left for IIo
boken. But I didn't' know then that
we would probably be over here an
other decade. , By the time I return
home I will probably be able to speak
with great "fluency" German,
French, Spanish, Italian, Portugese,
Greek, Russian, Austrian. Bohemian,
Polish, Danish, Swede, Dutch, Nor
wiegen, Armenian, Turkish, Egyp
tian, Camel, Fntima, Lord Chester
field and possibly American. As It
Is, I don't even speak German "flu
idly". Back In France some of the
fellows speak the language very
"fluidly". After ceveral helpings of
some good-sized pieces of cognac and
some strong vin blaukety blank lan
guage they soon get so they speak
very vin rouge-edly.
