Press.) Paris, Oct. 6.-—The protection from German she enjoyed by convicts through their own misdeeds, while aw-abiding men of France able arms are making such heavy sacrifices, has raised a discussion as to the propriety of sending to the front of all able-bodied men now in prison “Jail-bird slackers” is the name gven to men sentenced in 1914 or previously to periods of confinement that have carrled them over the first two years of the war. A law recent- Iy introduced in the Chamber of Deputies by Pierre Rameil and And re Hesse contemplates the incorpora- tion of certain categories of these men. The proposition was received with considerable satisfaction until a study of the question developed for- cible objections. A great many people held that it would be according too much honor to allow convicts to fight at the front alongside the gallant sol- dier of the republic. Others held that the results would scarcely justify the cxperiment, while the number of re- cruits that could be obtained this way, estimated at the ministry of justice between 3,000 and 4,000 would fur- nish too small an effort to justify the risk. It would be necessary to pro- vide an organization absolutely sep- arate and distinct from any other arm of the service to prevent con- tact between convicts and the sol- diers of the regular army. A great many prisoners have beg- ged for the privilege of a suspension of their sentence to permit them to go to the front, and have thus ap- pealed with some force to the senti- ment of charitably minded people. There are precedents, however, show- ing that the men who have gone to the front to clear themselves of stains upon their record have not in every case justified the hope that was en- tertained. HONORS FROM OFFICIALS. G. W- Guthrie, American Ambassador to Japan, Highly Honored. Seoul, Korea, Nov. 2.—George W. Guthrie, the American ambassador to Japan received many honors from Japanase officials on his way through Eorea to China where he will make @ tour. At Fusan, his steamer was net by a large party of officials and civilians. At Seoul, Isaburo Yamagata, di- rector of general administration of Korea, representing Marshal Count Terauchi who was in Toklo, gave a luncheon in honor of Mr. and Mrs. Guthrie. In the afternoon a recep- tion for American residents was held at the American consulate general and in the ecvening Consul-General Ransford S. Miller gave a dinner in- { viting prominent Japanes: Trolley and Automobile Forcing Native Vehicle Out of Business, Tokia, Nov. 1.—The electric car and automobile is steadily forcing the tiny and artistic rikisha to the wall, Not so very long ago Tokio was filled with fleet rikisha runners. Wealthy families boasted of their kuruma men. But these fast run- ners, tall and strong, are now scarce- 1y met with. Today the Japanese gentlemen who can afford neither carriage or motor car, has a bright looking kuruma hung on glittering bicycle wheels with huge pneumatic tires. With the re- duction of the number, the price of the public rikisha has steadily in- creased until it has almost become a luxury for the masses of the people. The two-passenger kuruma which used to figure in elopements and double suicides has entirely dis- appeared. POPULAR BUT RISKY. Throwing Deadly Hand Grenades Be- coming Popular Pastime in France. Paris, Nov. 1.—Throwing the gre- nade is becoming a popular form of sport in France. A speclal chevron has recently been designateed to be worn on the arm of the best grenade thrower in each company. Besides SHOULD READ THIS| I was said Peterson Bros., Dear Sirs: afflicted with what the doctors were Varicose Ulcers, and up until about five weeks ago I have been treating them for about a year and five months. With all the treatments that were prescribed to me by several doctors I received little benefit, and they kept spreading and gave me much distress and caused me to quit my work. I was induced by a brother brake- man to try Peterson’s Ointment, and after I had used two boxes I saw the wonderful results. You can tell suf- fering ones troubled with ugly, pain- ful and horrid ulcers that your Oint- ment is a cure for them when every- thing else fails, as I have tried about everything. Thanking you many times over, I am, your happy friend, Chas. J. Hey- ser, Battle Creek, Mich., 42 Glenwood Ave., Jan 12, 1916. “I know and dozens of people write | me,” says Peterson, ‘‘that Peterson’s Ointment also cures eczema, old sores, salt rheum, piles and all skin diseases, and all druggists sell a big box for 25 cents.” i | the army, the sporting | taken grenade matches now take the place of throwing the hammer, the discus, ete. It is claimed that some of the soldiers have thrawn a grenade 253 feet, but { this is challenged by the sporting ex- clubs throwing, perts on the ground that the throw was not made before a regular or- ganization and was a free-arm throw.

President Wilson and his Democratic Congress gave us a Low Tarifi which took protection from our workers and our Industries. Then the Republican Prosperity which we had had from 1896 to 1913 began to fade away. Then Followed 16 Months of Hard Times Cheaply-made foreign goods came pouring into the country.
