Stockholm, Dec. 1.—Fortunes have been made in Sweden, as in the other neutral countries of Europe, as a re- sult of the war, but the pinch of war prices is beginning to make itself keen- 1 yfelt among the middle and lower classes. This has been evidenced this week by the filing of petitions for in- creases of pay by representatives of the railway, postal, telegraph and tele- phone employes of the kingdom, by the city employes of Stockholm and of other Swedish cities and by the Stock- holm school teachers and other bodies. A special f08d commission in Gothen- burg has decided to recommend to the city council the granting of an appro- priation of 300,000 crowns to relieve the distress of the lowest paid classes in the city, and other cities have also been considering’ tife question. Dr. Guichard, head of the statistical bureau of Stockholm, reckons that the two years of war have brought an in- crease of at least £Q per cent. in the cost of living In Stockholm, in accel- eration of a movement which really set in 12 years ago. Dr. Guichard said to_the correspondent: “The budget for an ordinary middle class household has exhibited a eteady increase for all the necessaries of life since the year 1904. This increase has amounted to 67 per cent. at the end of last June. In other words, what this family could buy for 670 crowns in 1904 cost 1,119 crowns three months ago, and since then there has been a turther increase.” House renis in Stockholm increased 15.8 per cent. from 1905 to 1910, 3.3 per cent. from 111 to 1914, and 15 per cent. in the iast two years. Fuel prices, according to figures cited by the Stockholm teachers,in their peti- tion, have more than doubled in the last 10 years, a great part of the in- crease having come into the war years. With so much new wealth in the country, Dr. Guichard and other so- clologists believe the way is clearly indicated to help the less fortunate According to Municipal Councillor Dahilberg of Malmo, this year's assess- ment lists very generally show big increases of taxable property, running from 40 per cent. up to as much as 100 per cent. Gothenuerg, Helsingburg and Malmo all show large increases. The figures for Stockholm are not yet known, but it is believed that they will show an Increase of at least 25 to 30 per cent: This, Dr. Guichard points out, would mean an increase in re- gelpta from municipal taxes of some 6,000,000 crowns, without raising th tax rate, and would, even making al- lowances for the increased cost of running the city, furnish an adequate fund to relieve ail distress.

Flisep Arredondo, the am- bassador-designate, after conferences with Secretaries Lansing and Balker, expressed the belief that the unofficial reports were true and, ascribed., the defeat of the Carranza forces.to a laek. of ammunition and food rather than demoralization. Soon_after Mr. Arredondo’s visit to them, Secretaries Lansing and Baker separately conferred with President Wilson. No announcement was made, but it was apparent in official circies that there was some apprehension over the situation which might confront this government should Villa advance north, as has been _predicted, take Juarez and establish himself as a de facto authority again at the doors of the United States. * From a military standpolnt posses- sion of Juarez and Chihuahua might lead to possession of Monterey, Sal- tillo, Durango and practical military control of the east portion of northern Mexico. The most potent element with which Villa has to reckon in any such move- ment is the American punitive expe- dition in Mexico, spread out behind him and finally equipped for any emergency. Officials here have not the slightest fear for the ability of Major General Pershing to protect himself against any force that might be brought against him.. They are more interested in what would be the attitude of the United States govern- ment should Villa, for whose capture the expedition was sent into Mexico, get between General Pershing’s force and the border line. Those here well informed on Mexi- can affairs declare that the shortage of ammunition among the Carranza defenders of Chihuahua is entirely an Internal affair with the Carranza gov- ernment and is in no wise chargeable to the embargo on munitions from the United States. In none of the sick animals exam- Ined has there been found any sore- ness of the fect, a common symptom of foot and mouth diseass, the state- ment says. ‘“Moreover,” it adds, “many horses have this particular ai ment and horses have not been ob- served to contract foot and mouth disease in any of the previous_out- breaks in the United States. Hun- dreds of hogs exposed to the disease and in close association with the sick animals show no signs of the malady and this is regarded as significant be- cause during the recent outbreals of foot and mouth disease, hogs were as susceptible to foot and mouth disease as were cattle, Exposed sheep also fail to show the disease, yet these Before Breakfast | a Splendid Habit | Open slulces of the system sach morning and wash away the polsonous, mntrm —_— Those of us Who are accustomed to feel Qull and heavy when we arise; splitting headache, stuffy from a. cold, foul tongue, nasty breath, acld stomach, lame back, can, instead, both look and feel as fresh as a daisy always by washing the poisons and toxins from the body with phosphated hot water each morning, We should drink, before breakfast, a glass of real hot water with a tea- spoonful of limestone phosphate in it to flush from the stomach, Mver, kidneys and ten yards of bowels the previous day’s indigestible waste, sour Dile and poisonous foxins; thus cleans- ing, sweetening and purifying the entire alimentary tract before putting more food into the stomach. The action of limestone phosphate and hot water on an empty stomach is wonderfully invigorating. It cleans out all the sour fermentations, gases, waste and acidity and gives one a splendid appetite for breakfast and it is said to be but a little while until the roses begin to appear in the cheeks. A quarter pound of limestone phosphate will cost very little at thée drug store, but is sufficient to make anyone who is bothered with bilious- ness, constipation, stomach trouble or rheumatism a real enthusiast on the subject of internal sanitation.

This bears out the diagnosis, since vesi- cular stomatitis affects only horses and cattle ana not hogs and sheep, “Finally, the low percentage of ani- mals infected in each of the herds— only a small parcentage out of some hundreds—would indicate t| i foot and mouth disease, which, onc: it 1s introduced into a herd, quickly affects practically 100 per cent. of the cattle and hogs. “The department’s veterinarians will keep a careful watch to detect any evidence of foot and mouth diseass.” POLES REAFFIRM LOYALTY TO THE AMERICAN FLAG At Fourth Biernial Convention of the Polish Federation of America, South Bend, Ind, Dec. 1—Resolu- tions reaffirming their loyalty and at- tachment to the American flag, their desire to make the Polish residents of this country better citizens, demanding that the rights of the Poles in Europe be re-established and rendering hom- age of Henry K.
