"HI KBPT US OUT OF WAR." , A cloud ot democratic spellbinder ha set tled down on the middle west within the last few elays, chanting a glorious hymn, attuned to the air of the paen they set up four year ago, "He kept a out of war I" Each of them solemnly asseverates that failure to endorse Woodrow Wilson by the election of James M. Cox means immediate preparation for another war, to be ard somewhere. One of them, George Lunn, definitely locates the war as to be between the United State and Mexico. Mr, Lunn further ay that a a member of the house military af fair committee, he knows of the long prepara tions that were made for war, ; A a matter of solemn fact, Mr. Luna knows nothing of the kind. As a member of the home military affairs committee ia 1917 he knows how absolutely unprepared the country was for war; he also knows how strenuously the leading democrats ' oa that committee, Including its chairman, Hubert Dent, of Alabama, and our own Ashton C Shallenberger, opposed plans of the president for making the provisions that had to bt attended to; he also knows that the really important meftatres that came from that com mittee were reported to the house by a repub lican, Kahn of California, aad that on the floor they were fought by "democrats, even Champ Clark, speaker of the house, coming down from hi rostrum to argue against law; the president - !ked. ' A word personally about Mr. Luna! He first came to public notice as the sockfiet mayor of ! Schenectady, to which See lis wa twice elected as a socialist. In 1M he entered the race for congress as aa ''independent," was en dorsed by the democrats and elected to the Sixty-fifth congress promptly shedding his Inde pendence as he had his socialism, and labeling Himself a democrat. His eotgressiona! service nas confined to the one term, - Leon Bourgeois, president Of the Kaefae of Nations,, has jaft made a pnblie statement fa Which he says "Article k could be eliminated without in any way modifying the effectiveness of the League of 'Nations." Woodrow Wilson nys that article Is the heart of the edvenant, and that to modify it ia any way would "break the heart of the worlaVMf. Bourgeois certainly has: the league as much m mind ss does oar presi dent, and may be as well quafifted to Interpret ft Returning to, Mr. Luna's prediction of an eefef war.

Wilson served no ttos ft was to be ft democratic war, reso . lately' declining lo admit a republican to any active participation in the government or di rection of the campaign. Therefore, the only blamevthat can attach to the republicans arises from the fact that they gave the president sup port be could not get from his own party in con gress. It requires a good deal of nerve for a democrat to bring up the war as an issue now. but we will admit that the administration of Woodrow Wilson did all that possibly could be done to add to the physical horrors of war by making it as costly as wanton waste and willful evfravaganee could. Caa Mannnur to Swan Hone. !a his Jpiech at Huntington, W. Va., on Monday Governor Cox took a new tack in his eaJOfaTgn course. His latest pledge is that he wiB confer with the senate and endeavor to racn an agreement as to the League of Nations, in order that the United States may acquire membership immediately. This departure from . the course pursued by the president is noted by Cox partisans as one of the realty important developments of the campaign. Its chief significance, and almost its sole im- sertaace, it in its divergence from the Wilson polky. GoVernor Cox minimizes this, however, by his "subsequent attack on the "round robin" isaators as conspirators. In very truth, they were patriots, for they foresaw and undertook to warn Mr. Wilson of the inevitable effect of his conduct In what way Mr. Cox would ap proach these men to win them to his view is not plain. He may have in mind the acceptance of fitch reservations as the senatevmay by a two thirds Vote adopt, although he does not plainly :say so.?" ' ' J ' '- ,: , One-third of the senate .will be elected this year. Now nd then a democratic leader has ventured the lug restion that enough seat may 'Tk AJaadata rim at Tk,Ba to a mW. to . tonto. Ail rtsao) 1 faArlim T wr isstUl be captured to change the political make-up of the body. This is hardly probable. On the con trary, the republicans confidently expect to se-v cure enough additional votes to strengthen the party's control in the senate, and render even less probable the ratification of the Treaty of Versailles without the qualifying reservations as already proposed. Governor Cox's i witch is clearly a bid for votes he does not look for if he redeems his earlier pledge to carry out the Wilson prom ises. It is a manifest confession of the weak ness of his position throughout the campaign, and he will find out that the middle of; the stream ia no place to swap horses. v Poland Donee The Laagae Recriminations now passing between the got-ernment of Poland and the League of Na tions indicate a breaking of faith on both sides. The Polish delegation in Paris has expressed unwillingness to sign the present draft of the Danzig convention on the grounds that it does not fulfill the promise made them of free access to the sea and the control of customs, as spec ified in the Treaty of Versailles. So much for that dispute, with which Americans are display ing neither interest nor familiarity. On the other side of the shield is the faith less action of a Polish general, who has ad vanced into Lithuania and captured the city of Vilna ia defiance of the orders of the League of Nation. True, the Polish government has disclaimed responsibility for' the invasion, but at the same time it is taking no steps to deal with the mutinous general, if such he be. The suspicion exists in Europe hat back, of this incursion are the Polish landlords who desire to prevent the division of the great estates as planned by Lithuania. . In Paris is Paderewski, pianist turned states man. He explaina that he is trying to calm the League of' Nations and help remedy the mat ter. His frank words, as cabled to the United States, heap new fuel on the fires of distrust that are lapping at the League of Nations as at present constituted. "I don't see what the League of Nations caa do," he is quoted as saying. "The only pos sible cure for the situation is time and patience. The league has no forces to drive General Zell gouski from Vilna, and if there were, I don't see how Poland could tolerate it under the circafflstancss." Proponents of. the Laagae of Nations have yet to point to a single outstanding accomplish ment of the league thus far. Its failures have been many, and the conviction is inevitable that the evils of the Paris covenant are at least as great as its prospective benefits.. If its pro visions are not such that they can be carried out, new and better arrangements for international peace and justice surely must be attempted. 39SS9SSC59eS9S9e Too Shortage of Husband. throughout Europe the number of women is so far in excess of the number of men left after the war that for millions of girls marriage is out of the range of possibility. According to sn es timate made by the Red Cross, while in France ta 1911 there were 102 women to each 100 men, each sex between the ages of 20 snd 44, now there are 12S women jto 100 men. This is a sur plus of 1,500,000 women Under 45 years of age. According to the census only 60 per cent of the men between 30 and 44 were married, and on this is bated the statement that half the women of France cannot hope for husbands. Emigration from Italy established the pro portion of til women to 100 men before the war, and the figures now are set at 125 to 100. The excess of women in Germany is new 20 per cent, and that of England has changed from 9 per cent to 20. Even in this day and age, matrimony is the objective of most women. How to get married becomes a problem considerably ' more acute than ever before. Perhaps it is the realita tion of this that new courses in domestic science are. being opened such as that known as "bride's yar" at the University bf London. Ths subjea of study include a general knowl edge of household management budgets, laun dry work and housewifery, physiology, infant hygiene, business affairs, biology and general economies. Women from mafy parts of Great Britain are flecking to earn 'the bride's diploma, thus showing confidence enough in the good sense of the unmarried men to believe that they will value household ability above bobbed hair and dtpitSHd eyebrows when choosing a help- Spaed on the Typewriter. In a speed contest for the championship of the United States and Canada, an expert iias succeeded in writing 131 words per minute for 60 consecutive minutes. This ia at the rate of 7,610 words an hour, or as fast as the average speaker talk. For comparison, the typewriter on which this i written is a Sober, steady sort of machine, that ambles along at the ratp of about forty words (and a proportional number of mis takes) a minute; occasionally, in emergency, it will whoop it up to fifty or sixty, and now and then in a rare burst of speed, it has been known to do 80. At this rate it turns out a reasonable amount of copy each day. That may serve as a basis for calculating what the young man did ui order to write himself down champion. From another point: If each of his written words con tained four letters, and he properly spaced his output, he had to hit the keys at the rate of 655 times a minute, not to speak of shifting the car riage, which, at twelve words to the line, took place about twelve times a minute, or once every five seconds. So it muit occur even to the casual observer that this champion was a very busy young man during the sisty' minutes of his test. If you do not thinl: s.j, fust try aiming a directed blow of your fingers at the rate of ten times a second for a minute or two. The new champion has accomplished a. real feat, one that will be envied by many "stenogs" and emulated by very few.

There is trouble in the offing for trainera of pugilists, wrcfltlers, and foot ball players. If their charges gt hold of the August number of the Military Surgaon, keeping them on the reservation will be a hard Job. In that magazine Dr. R. M. Culler, an army surgeon, .rlos to prove that It ia a mistake for athletes to train down. On the other hand, their ef forts should be directed toward training up. This is the 'argument. Whenever w make any violent sustained effort we draw on what nature nas saved up. If there is a surplus of stored energy producing food or tissue, the highly developed tissues are spared. If there is no such surplus they are; burned. If a business man was get ting ready tor a financial storm would he begin by checking out his savings and; ii?ln up his reserve? When a steamship gets out ot coal dp they burn the cartro and ithen chop up the wodwork for fuel? A prise fighter loses five or 10 pounds during a light. If he has trained down and then has dried out, where does the loss come from? It must come from highly important tissues. The doctor supports his argument with somt Illustrations. Frank Gotch had a lot of subcutane ous fat 'evenly distributed over one of the fattest bodies ever seen on a mat. Dr. Roller ate und drank what pleased him best and enjoyed him self in legitimate ways. I.ouis Cyr, who won a welkht lifting contest at 62 and who held the championship for many years, never trained down, John L. Sullivan, who held tho prize fighting . championship for many years, ate a lot and carried a lot of flesh. The EiirUsIi are champion rowers always. Their rowing teams, eat more, play more, and are heavier than other teams. No soldier on the west front attacked bettor or resisted more than did the French, and this was In great part because they were well fed. A well fed army will whip an underfed army wery time. . Dr. Culler's advice to ordinary folks, engaged Inordinary every day work, is to eat and drink plenty, to keep a little fat rather .than 1 be underweight If th'en they have a severe Illness or accident they have some reserve to draw on. The highest potentialities for health and strength are derived from a sane enjoyment of the pleasures of life. Overwork is impossible if a man eats ehough, Dr. Culler thinks When It comas ' to exercise, he prefers useful manual labor to games. For example, he thinks William Hollen aollern wise in sawing wood and his son shows good sne in making horseshoes. Golf would have done them less good. Have Eyes Examined, v Mrs. E.
