APPRECIATES AMERICA'S WORK Pi-ce-jfclciit Will t>o as Welcome as Wore tho Troops. London, Dec. 5. - The British newspapers of recent days, in pub lishing full reports of President Wil son's address to Congress and n%ws ; regarding his voyage abroad, have taken occasion to point out the Brit ish public's evei'-growing apprecia tion of what the American soldiers j and the American people as a whole have done in tho war. I "We -would ask the Americans," says the Times, "to believe that the Allied peoples regard the coming of tho President in the same light In which they regarded the immense war effort, of th? United States, and tho decisive contribution of the arm ed forces to the common victory, ff it he a sacrifice for tbo American people that the President should come, it is a sacrifice which the Eu ropean peoples deeply appreciate." ; Noting the President's suggesTion that control may yet, "perhaps for a long while," have to be exercised I over shipping, the Times says: "Wo venture to read into this America's recognition of the splendid work done by bodies like the wheat executive and the inter-Allied mari time transport board, -whose opera tions have gone far to prove the feas ibility of a practical league of na tions." The Morning Post says that Presi dent Wilson's address bore witness to the great achievement, of the American army and to the hardly lees notable accomplishment of those at homo who supported the army. Tho Americans In the field under Gem, Pershing were able at a critical moment of the campaign to strike a blow which, in consonance with .Mar shal Foch's groat plan of campaign, fulfilled the allotted tusk of the American forces at St. Mibiel and at Chateau Thierry. British troops that fought alongside the Americans tes tify to their quickness, resourceful ness and valor. The presence of many thousands of the United States army in this country has brought the two countries into cordial relations, whleh we cannot believe will ever agata be clouded by misunderstand ing." CALOMEL. SALIVATES AND MAKES YOU RICK. - Acts Dike Dynamite on a Sluggish Liver, und You Lose a Day's Work.

Pro-War Shipment? Required-Situation In Wheat and Fat? Prove* Government'? Policy Sound. With the guns In Europe silenced, we have now to consider a new world food situation. But there can be no hope that the volume of our exports can be lightened to the slightest de gree with the cessation of hostilities. Millions of people liberated from the Prussian yoke are now depending upon us for the food which will keep, them from starvation. With food tho United States made lt possible for the forces of democ racy to hold out to victory. To insure democracy In the world, we must can tinas to liv? simply hi order that wo may supply these liberated nations of Europe with food. Hunger among a po > Inevitably breeds anarchy. American food must complete the work of making th? world safe for democ racy. towt year we sont 11,820,000 tons of food to Europe. For the present year, with only the European Allies to feed, ws had originally pledged ourselves to a program that would have Increased our exports to 17,500,000 tons. Now, to feed the liberated nations, we will nave to export a total of not less than 80,000,000 toas-practically the limit of loading capacity at our ports. Re viewing the world food situation, we find that some foods will be obtainable j tn quantities sufficient to meet all world needs under a regime of eco nomical consumption. On the other hand, there will bs marked world shortages in som? Important commodi ties. Return to Normal Bread Leaf. With the enlarged wheat crops? which American farmers have grown, I and the supplies of Australia, the Ar- ! gentine and other markets now acc?s- < slble to shipping, there are bread grains enough to enable the nations to ra tu ru to their normal wheat loaf, : provided we continue to mill flour st a high percentage of extraction and maintain economy in eating and th? avoidance s? iSfllrt?. In fats there will be a heavy ?h?rt* age - about 8,000,000,000 pounds - In pork products, dairy products and vegetable oils. While there win be a shortage e? about three million tons in rich protein feeds for dalry ani mals, there will be sufficient supplies of other feedstuffs to allow economical consumption. In the matter of beef, thc world's supplies are limited to the capacity of the available refrigerating ships. The supplies of beef In Australia, the Ar gentino and the United States are suf ficient to load theso ships. There will bo a shortage In the importing coun tries, but we cannot hope to expand exports materially for the next months In view of the bottle neck In trans portation. 1 We will have a sufficient supply of sugar to allow normal consumption in i this country if the other nations re- ; tain their present short rations or In crease them only slightly. For the countries of Europe, however, to in? crease.their present rations to a ma terial extent will necessitate our shar ing a part of our own supplies with them. Twenty Million Ton? of Food. Of th? world total, North America' wtU furnish more than 00 per cent The United States, Including th? West Indies, will be called upon to furnish ?0,000,000 tons of food of all kinds as compared with our pre-war exports of about 6,000,000 tona While we will be able to change our program ba many respects, even a casual survey of the world supplies In comparison to world demands shows conclusively that Europo will know famine unless the American people bring their home consumption down to the barest minimum that will mair, tain health and strength. There ore conditions of famine in Europo that will be beyond our power to remedy. There are 40,000,000 peo ple In North Russia whom there la 'smell chance of reaching with food thia winter. Their transportation is demoralized In complete anarchy, and ? shortly many of their ports will be fro/.cn, even If Internal transport could bo realized. To Preserve Civilization. At this moment Germany has no! alone sacked the food and animals .from all those masses of people sh? has dominated and left starving, but she has left behind her a total wreck? ugo of social Institutions, and thia .mass of peoplo ls now confronted with absolute anarchy. If we value our own safety and th<i social organization of the world, if w< value she preservation of civilization Itself, we cannot permit growth of tbM cancer in the world's vital?. Famine ls the mother of anarchy, From the inability of governments ti ( secure food for their people growl revolution and chaos. From an obllltj to supply thoir people grows stability of government and the defeat of an archy. .Did we put lt on no highei plano thun our interests in the pro tectlop ot our Institutions, we must bestir ourselves in solution of thli problem.

In my Intimate companionship with Muir lc, Alaska I saw many Instances of his warm human sympathy, S. nail Young writes in World Outlook. One occurred when In 1879 we' were visit ing the tribe of Chllcats. These Chil eans, recognized as th? most warlike and arrogant of the Thllnget tribes, ? were nevertheless so Interested lu the gospel message I had to bring them that they crowded the house where we lodged, filling lt full and prying off planks from Its side so that those with out could hear. The first night we spent In the vil lage, after an all-day's palaver, we were about to retire to our blankets when a woman brought a baby to us | which was almost a skeleton from lack ' of nourishment, and whose feeble cry , was most p'tlful *o 9.ear.N The woman explained that the baby's mother had died, and that they had no food for the Child-none of the other women being I In condition to nurse lt. At once Muir ; and I set about preparing condensed j milk for the baby. We diluted lt with i warm water until we thought lt of tho j proper consistency, and fed lt to the Starving baby. The child was almost ! too weak to toke this nourishment, and it required the utmost patience and caro to feed lt. Muir worked with that little papoose almost all night, I rocking lt In his arms and soothing ; Its cries, and when nt last lt rested in j a healthful, refreshing sleep, he care fully showed the woman how to pre- I pare Its food, and Insisted upon leav-1 lng all of our remaining canned milk for the baby. Tho natives voluntarily i told me when we were about to leave ! that If the baby lived it belonged to j me and they would bring it down to ' Port Wrongel. I thought but little of this promise, knowing how easily people forget such things; but five years a' this occurrence I was sur prised to have some Chllcat natives bring a sturdy and healthy little boy, and formally give him to me, saying that this was the baby whoso life we ' had saved, and he therefore belonged , to us. Tho child was taken Into our! mission at Wrnngel, and I baptized | him with tho name of "John," artur ? my friend. Subscribe for The Courier now. 11.00 a year-in advance. Th? Canny Scot. .

BUY THEM TO-DAY I Health About Gone Many thousands o! women suffering from womanly trouble, have been benefited by the use of Cardin, the woman's tonic, according to letters we receive, similar to this one from Mrs. Z.V.

"As my suf fering was so great, and he had tried other reme dies? .Dr.- had us fietc?rdul. . v I began inproving, and lt cured me. 1 Know, and my doctor knows, what Car dia did for me, lonny nerves and health were about gone."

General Horatio Gates Gibson, tho oldest living graduate of West Point, veteran of tho Mexican civil and In dlnn wars, has Just celebrated his 91st birthday in good health and spirits. Among the guests of the soldier on his birthday wore u few surviving members of the Aztec Club, which was formed by officers of the service In the city of Mexico seventy-one years ago. There ls only a squad of the original members of this club living.' Gen. Gibson ls one of them and is the organization's president. It is probable that this veteran thought as a young soldier, after cam paigning from Vera-Ott?'to the city of Mexico under the leadership of Gen. Winfield Scott, that the Mexican war was a good deal of a war. It ls likely, also, after serving as on ar tillery chieftain through the cam paigns from '61 to '05, that he thought the c*vll war was about tho biggest thing in the shapo of a war that ever happened or could happen.
