When he landed in New York he found newspapers carrying photographs of the signing of the peace treaty. They had been brought to America by the fast dirigible R-34, the first transatlantic airship. And they were being printed as far west as Missouri river when the president set foot on American soil. This was due to the ingenuity in news service of the Newspaper Enterprise association, of which the Daily Tribune is the only Bismarck member. In the previous week, pictures of the cham- pionship prizefight at Toledo were circulated in nearby cities before the fight fans from those cities got home. The Cleveland Press, published 120 miles away, was on the streets with extras bearing the N. E. A. staff photographer’s picture of the deciding blow the same afternoon. The same photo appeared in the Daily Tribune as fast as a speedy hydroplane in conjunction with spe- cial-delivery mails could bring it to this office. This is the day of speed. Because pictures are a definite part of the news we may expect, from now on, ever-increasing use of the airplane, in- cluding the government airmails, in carrying pho- tographic news to newspaper readers. The Daily Tribune is proud of its part in the remarkable exploit that brought the peace pictures to this country ahead of the president,.and it prorsises its readers that this newspaper will not be found lag- ging in news-photo developments of the future. THE WORLD’S CREDIT FOUNDATION The modern business world is built on credit, and most of modern civilization is built on busi- ness. Credit, hitherto built on broad foundations ac- cording to tested principles, is now-a vast inverted pyramid with its apex on shifting sands. Gold payments, the accepted test of national credit stability, have everywhere been suspended. The refusal of the Bank of England to redeem its promises in gold has always been a sign that the last bulwark against universal bankruptcy was cracking. That bank has paid out no. gold for five years. No nation is meeting its obligations. Billions of dollars of paper money have flowed over the world with a flood that has lifted the price level to demoralizing heights. All these are promises to pay gold. None of those promises are now be- ing met. Business relations are maintained on the hope that the payment is but deferred. But that hope has been so long deferred that the busi- ness heart is very sick. Other billions, unimaginable ten years ago, have been issued as bonds. Those of Germany, Austria, Turkey and Russia seem certainly lost. But the threads of the credit web interlace closely all across the world. Tearing out such great sec- tions strain and threaten its stability everywhere. Moreover most of these billions were borrowed to buy things to destroy and be:destroyed, and have done their work. The world went to the verge, if not over the verge of bankruptcy to buy fuel for a frightful bonfire. The money is spent. The security is destroyed. Great financiers in every land now say the only way out lies through greater: debts. . Because Europe has destroyed so much more must be given it. Only by stretching the thin and torn web of credit over the whole world can it be rebuilt. It can be rebuilt upon the old material things. They are gone. It must be founded upon the sub- stance of things hoped for. It must be built upon faith in the power of peoples to govern them- selves, produce wealth and keep their promises. Destroying that faith invites a universal smash. Tearing down the fabric of production means universal misery. To attempt to exploit that production for immediate personal profit, runs the risk of killing the faith upon which pro- duction rests. } A new age can grow from the old only if the soil is not destroyed. Social institutions are of iong ‘evolution. . Breaks in the chain make neces- sary long new processes of preparation. To be concréte, it is a bad time to start prof- iteering and smashing unions, if the world’s credit is: to be restored to life. Reciprocally, because industry and production, as organized today, rest! ‘on credit, it is a bad time to start a fracas that will smash credit. The world’s future hangs on the faith that men and women will continue to work and produce wealth. If that faith fails, the rest will bring little hope or comfort to this gen-! eration. The reactionary and the revolutionist alike are aged and directed in other times but that today can as easily wreck the best of what the past has as Becor |cained the present possesses ‘or the future promises, WHY MEN DIE The man who lost an arm or leg in the war will live longer than if he had not lost it. This amaz- ing statement comes from a great surgeon, ‘Col. Openshaw of the London hospital, in a speech made at the opening of a hospital for the limbless. Openshaw explains that much valuable energy is used up when the heart pumps blood through the arms or legs; that the drain on our vital forces is increasingly less as the extremities are re- moved, resulting in longer life. All of us at times feel fagged. “Just naturally worn out” is a term commonly applied to people who die before their time. Let us spend three minutes with the scientists and learn all about the connection between death and the exhaustion of human energy. * * * Ever hear of Max Rubner? . Great scientist. To one school of physiologists he is a sacred cow. Here is Rubner’s theory of life: Man is a power plant with a limited amount of fuel—energy. This energy used up, his engine stops. Life is the result of energy being produced by consumption of food, just as heat results from burning coal. But all animals, man included, can produce only a fixed amount of energy ; after that amount has been produced, death is a certainty. The bat- teries cannot be overcharged. . We are born with a definite amount of undevel- oped units of energy. We can develop and use them up normally—and die at the ripe age when we begin getting in the young folks’ way. Or we can use them up fast—and die young. ‘ Did you ever notice that lazy men generall: are healthy and outlive the sprinters who burn themselves up? * * * From behind his whiskers Rubner announced the results of a life study: “For every pound weight of his body at ma- turity, the average man produces and consumes 362,900 calories of energy before he dies. Death comes when he has consumed that amount. Noth- ing that he can possibly do will make his body produce during adult life more energy than the 362,900 calories; and nothing can possibly prevent his death when this amount of energy is. pro- duced.” Some men die before all their energy-fuel is completely converted into ashes. Others keep the fire going tog hot, by overwork or dissipation, and burn. themselves. up before reaching the mellow age. 4 The automatic machine, by conserving our en- ergies, enables us to crowd three times as much into our lieftime as grandfather had in his. Ma- chinery is the greatest force for lengthening human life if we are content not to burn the whole forest at once. vie You cannot cheat nature. She has placed an absolute limit on the amount of energy’ you expend. Make every calory count.’ The supply-of life in your body is an exhaustible bank account: Do not squander it. IF WE COULD SEE OURSELVES AS WE REALLY ARE apt Our vision is impaired by getting too close. We do not get far enough away from ourselves «nd our problems to see them in a true relation. It is like trying to see the lines on our palms by holding our hands an inch away from our eyes. Supposing we would go up in a balloon or an aeroplane and look from on high at the city or town where we live. We would see that the house where we dwell is just one among many houses—that it is very small as compared to all other houses as a whole. We would see that the business concern where we are employed or where we employ. others:is small as compared to other business institutions, and particularly so as compared to the entire com- munity. ete ck EAT We would see that the streets, the trolley lines, the railroads and the telegraph and the felephone lines are the devices of transportation’ and com- munication by which the community is brought into relation, not only with itself, but with other communities. We would also see by this balloon and aeroplane view that other men and other women like our- selves were very small as related to all other individuals as a whole, or to any one of the many single institutions and particularly the community as a whole; that one man would have to bea very large object—about seven miles high, and be able to take steps about one and one-half miles long before a society of ordinary sized men would take notice of him purely for his own sake. This comparison does not mean that we should depreciate ourselves by feeling that any one of us is too small to be of consideration. We are the whole consideration. This com- parison does mean that we should depreciate our- selves in relation to the whole. Happiness and prosperity is in our relation to others—nature as expressed in human society. Our true happiness and stable prosperity is /tirst in seeing this relation to others and then the efficiency with which we serve them. And the Balkan question is to be settled on'the rousing cosmic forces that might be easily man- deferred-payment plan.

They \clieve Great Britain is leading the way and that the confidence of the Kritish is spreading through the neigh- boring nations, As evidence of British confidence they point to the organization of 17,- ;600 manufacturing and producing con- cerns to work together for world trade. This body is sending its agents into every part of the globe to represent its interests, advise it of every .oppor- tunity: for commerce from a “chain of commercial outposts throughout the world.” = The cleverest and most aggressive spirits of Britain trade are active in ‘this organization. One of them, speak- ing of the enterprise said: “A big job? Of course we have a big job, one of the biggest we ever have known in the history of the nation. “All the more reason why we should go to it with heart and soul. There's xo joy in winning little things. There’s something fine in doing big things. We're in for something tremendously lig now, And we're going to win.” METHODISTS -RAISE $17,000 FUND HERE At least $17,000 was raised by the McCabe Methodist church of this city as its contridution toward the $160,- 000,000 home and foreign missionary fund raised in the entire country. Inasmuch as there are 250 members in the congregation, they are ‘highly gratified with the amount secured. The church tendered Dr. W. J. Hutcheson a month’s vacation, which will start on August 1. At its regu- lar meeting held last night, C. A. (Marr was elected judge and N. A. Mason ad J. K. Doran, tellers, for the election of a lay delegate to the annual state conference of the Methodist church to be held at Minot on October 9. This delegate will be elected within the next six weeks.

YEARS OF TROUBLE ENDED AND SHE HAS GAINED 15 POUNDS “My Friends Say I’m Looking Yeara Younger” She Says—Tanlac Brings Relief. “When I began taking Tanlac I had ben down in bed for three months and just think of it, I’m feeling as strong and healthy as I ever felt in my life,” suid Mrs. Mollie J. Lord, who -resides at the East Denver High School, Den- yer, Colorado, in an interview recently. Mrs, Lord has lived in Denver for the past twenty-five. years, her: husband has been in charge of the East Denver High School building for twenty-two years and they are highly respected by all who know them. “Years ago,” continued Mrs, Lord, “T had an attack of bronchitis from which I contracted catarrh of the head and stomach. The trouble got a firm grip on me because for a long time I tried to make myself believe I didn’t have catarrh, but at last I realized I was in a bad fix. By nose and throat were feverish and the mucus collecting in my throat would nauseate and al- most choke me. My stomach got in such a bad condition I couldn’t even eat potatoes or toast. In fact, every- thing would sour almost as soon as I had eaten it and the gas caused such a burning and fluttering around my heart that I was afraid I had heart trouble, Sleep seemed impossible for me, I would toss and roll in bed and have to jump up every little while so I could get my breath. My kidneys worried me constantly and my back hurt me so bad at times it felt like it would break in two. “TI doctored and took eyerything I heard of but kept getting worse until I just had to give up and go to bed. I never got any better until I began taking Tanlac and it certainly has been a Godsend to me, I can tell from the way my clothes fit that I have gained all of fifteen pounds and I have not ‘only gotten entire relief from the ca- tarrh in both my head and stomach, but my kidneys are also in perfect condition and I don’t have any more pain in my back. I go to sleep as sson jas I-get in bed and sleep soumlly all night long. My stomach never troubles me now and, oh, it’t such a pleasure to be able to eat what I want with- out suffering afterwards. And since the gas has stopped forming all the burning sensation and palpitation of the heart is gone. My friends say I’m looking years younger and TI can cer- tainly endorse Tanlac in the highest terms, and expect to always have it on hand in case I should need ‘it.” Tanlac is sold in Bismarck by Jos. Breslow, in Driscoll b3 D. and J. H. Barrette, and in Wing by F. P. Homan, Nae : Aavt. —S ° ‘ | HOTEL ARRIVALS od ©.

INDIGESTION Caused by Acid-Stomach Millions of people—in fact about 9 out of Ta ete oe Jong from indigestion, cute or chronic, Nearly every case is cause by Acid-Stomach, ‘There are other stomach disorders which also are sure signs of Acid-Stomach—belch- ing, heartburn, bloat after eating. food re- beating, sour, gassy stomach. There aremany ailments which, while they d@not cause much distress in the stomach itself, are, neverthe- less, traceable to an acid stomach.
