The death of Douglas Ma< Monagle, of San Francisco, a member of th<Lafayette squadron, occurred during a patrol fight with two other Americans, Lieutenant Lufbery and Sergeant Rockwell. They were attacked by eight German machines, believing to belong to the combination known us the "tango circus." Apparently MacMonagle was taken by surprise. He fell within the French lines. Sergeant Rockwell went to the rescue, but was too late to save his comrade. After a short fight, however, he down ed one German, who fell crashing in*c a wood. MacMonagle's body was recovered. He was shot twice through the head. The funeral will be held on Wednesday with American military honrr as a camp of American engineers stationed near enough to the base ol the squadron to send men to sound taps. ?

MS I REPAIR MACHINERY AND SAVE DOLLARS High Cost of Everything Makes This Imperative More Than Ever. The great outeiy for farm p"cdu tion and the scarcity of machinery points to the need of some way to repair a great many implements that -.re now useless largely because of the oglect with which they have been treated, says the) United S'atcs Department of Agriculture, which ad.'s that the machinery manufacturer* and their local sales agents should help to perform this repair service. Througout the country there are thousands of binders, mowers, and other farm machines rusting in th fence corners, and many of these might be made available for furthoi valuable service. The manufacturers of farm machinery are admittedly unable to furnish all the new machines more than a month in reaching thi advertisements to influence governmental authorities to insure them necessary raw materials and transporatution in competition with the demand foi machines of war. The rairoads of the country, according to one of their officials, are being compelled in the present emergency to rescue practically every scrap loC( motive from the old-iron grave yards and rebuild them for active service. A similar plan should be adopted. says the department, for the reclamation of this cast-off farm equipment through the agency of c ntral repair shops where the work could no done. Many of the machines might be made available for further service with repairs of comparatively small cost. Added to the almost sinful carelessness of some farmers there has been the attitude on the part of farm machinery manufacturers in years past to favor the abandonment of worn and disabled machines in order to sell new ones; but now the time hits arrived when it is difficult to supply the market with the necessary new machinery. The department suggests that representatives of the manufacturers, on the one hand, and of the farmers? such as farm bureau agents or county agents?on the other hand, should get together to establish the necessary farm machinery repair stations in con venient localities. RHEUMATISM ARRESTED Many people suffer the tortures "of lame muscles and stiffened joints because of impurities in the blood, and each succeeding attack seems more acute until rheumatism has invaded the whole system. To arrest rheumatism it is quite as important to improve your general health as to purify your blood, and the cod liver oil in Scott 's Emulsion is nature's great bloodmaker, while its medicinal nourishment strengthens the organs to expel the impurities and upbuild your strength. Scott's Emulsion is helping thousands every day who could not find other relief. Refuse the alcoholic substitutes.

Tlrs is taken to prove that the statement recently published to the effect th it the reply had left Berlin on Saturday s untrue, as otherwise, even admitting a delay of one day in Switzerland, the document should have arrived in Rome Tuesday night or this morning. Cardnial (iasparri believes that the. r< ply of the Central powers was held up when Emperor William went to R ga and that it is not likelv Jf will reach the Vatician until next week. The reply of the Entente Allies to the Pope's peace proposals must necessarily arrive after that of the Central Powers because Great Britain before the Entente note, asked for some information of the Vatician which in turn applied for it to the Central Powers, which notified the Holy See that t.he explanations asked for would be contained in their own replies to the papal note. On these explanations, therefore, the answer of the Entente Allies, or at least that of Great Britain will depend. 0 " AMERICA'S OBJECT. ^ "The object of this war is to deliver the free peoples of the world from the menace and the actual power of a vast military establishment c.ntrolled by an irresponsible government, which having secretly Dlanned to dominate the world, proceeded to ;nrry the plan out without regard either to the sacred obligations of reaty or the long-established prac.ues and long-cherished principles of international action and honor; which chose its own time for the war; delivered its blow fiercely and sudden1y; stopped at no barrier either of law or of mercy; swept a whole continent within the tide of blood?not the blood of soldiers only, but the the blood of innocer*" women and children also and of tl._ .elpless poor; and row stands balked but not defeated*, the enemy of four-fifth of the world." ?
