w ? FRENCH GIRLS ADVISED. To Get American Husbands and Keep Them in France. "Let me give you a little advice," says a writer in the Intranssigeant, addressing himself to the maidens * of France. "There are many Americans in France and you know very well how charming they find you. They find our women more disposed to be fellow workers with them than those of other countries, they appreciate you highly, but my dear little French girls, you must not be frivo- I lous. Americans are grown up chilk,. dren, somewhate ingenuous, a trifle puritan, and quite ready to marry you, and an American husband and a French wife make an excellent i married couple. So do not waste r the chance of that marked purity which is so seldom found among the men of ancient Europe." Another writer in the Petit Journal, welcomes the reports that American-French marriages are becoming very common, as excelleni irom the idyllic and sentimental point of view also for the fusion of the two races, but express some anxiety as to its effect on the population of France. . He fears that when the war is over the American husbands will carry away their French wives across the Atlantic and France will lose that many households, a loss that the country is in no condition to stand. The writer q,uotes a letter that he has received from a French girl, engaged to an American, in which sne says that she laid down no conditions in accepting the proposal but had made her fiance understand that after the war there would be work for everv one in France, and so he had promised to remain in France and if children came they should be > French citizens. - "There's a good example," comments the article. "Let all French girls follow it. America will not be perceptibly poorer and France will j be enriched. It is one more kind act that we can beg from our allies and ' one they are not likely to refuse." ? Wilson's Five Principles of Peace. j i "First, the impartial justice meted put must involve no discrimination . between those to whom we wish to be j just and those to whom we do not j wish tP be just. It must be a justice that plays no favorites, and knows no standard but the equal rights of the several peoplfes concerned. Second, no special or separate int terest of any single nation or any \ jgpPtKfoup of nations can be made the Jdtf *sis of any part of the settlement fhich is not consistent with the com^^^non interests of all. "Third, there can be no league or alliance or special covenants and understandings within the general and common family of the league of naXi ' tions. "Fourth, and more specifically, - there can be no special, selfish economic combinations within this league and no employment of any form of economic penalty by exclusion from the markets of the world may be vested in the league of nations itself as a means of discipline ana control. I fjtr. I "Fifth, all international agreements and treaties of every kind must be made known in their entirety to the rest of the world." t . -??? Losses of Central Powers Since July, i , . ' London, Sept. 28.?Since July IS the allies have taken 325,000 prisoners and 3,600 guns. Of these totals 247,000 prisoners | and 3,i00 guns have been taken on * the western front. ' The British alone have taken 110,872 prisoners and 1,700 guns in the ? west. The French have taken 100,210 prisoners and 900 guns. The Americans have captured 36,000 prisoners and 500 guns. The Palestine and Macedonian campaigns netted 60,000 prisoners and 465 guns. ^ In Siberia and Murmansk 18,000 prisoners were taken. These losses cannot be replaced by the Central Powers. Germany is j * forced to press her 1920 class into j service immediately. The other cen- j tral allies must do the same, provided they have such classes left. Cotton Crop Price Will Not Be Fixed. 3 Washington, Sept. 26.?Congressman Ragsdale today said that after several conferences with high officials here it could be state# authoritatively that no price would be fixed -on cotton. "I know what I am talking about," Mr. Ragsdale said, "and I am firmly of the opinion that no price will be fixed for cotton at this */ time." From other sources it was learned that if a price is fixed it will be entirely satisfactory to the growers, possibly 35 cents a pound. The whole matter from present indications may ' be settled within the next few days in order that the cotton market may not < be further affected. ' HANDS, ARMS, LIMBS ASLEEP * ; And Was Ron-Down, Weak and Nervous, Says Florida Lady. Five Bottles of Cardui Made Her Well. Kathleen, Fla.?Mrs. Dallas Prine, of this place, says: "After the birth of my last child...I got very much run-down and weakened, so much that I could hardly do anything at all. I was so awfully nervous that I could scarcely endure the least noise. My condition was getting worse all the time... I knew I must have some relief or I would soon be in the bed and in a serious condition for I felt so badly and was so nervous and weak I could hardly live. My husband asked Dr. about my taking Cardui. He said, 'It's a good medicine, and good for that trouble', so he got me 5 bot ties...After about the second bottle I felt greatly improved...before taking it my limbs and bands and arms would go to sleep. After taking it, however, this poor circulation disappeared. My strength came back to me and I was soon on the road to health. After the use of about 5 bottles, I could do all my house-work and attend to my six children besides." You can feel safe in giving Cardui a thorough trial for your troubles. It contains no harmful or habit-forming drugs, but is composed of mild, vegetable,. medicinal ingredients with no bad aftereffects. Thousands of women have voluntarily written, telling of the good.Cardui has done them. It Should help you, too. Try it EL 74 J. F. Carter B. D.
