LIFT RUSSIAN
BLOCKADE, PLEA
Only Cure For Her Troubles,
Alexander Berken
hcim Says -
London, March 20.—Lift the econ
mic blockade from Russia is the ap
peal which Alexander Berkenhetin
of Moscow, vice-president and gen
eral manager of the All-Ruasian
Central Union of Consumers' So
cieties, is making' in England and
which he intends to make soon in
the United States. That is the only
way, in Mr. Berkenheiin's opinion,
to cure Russia's troubles.
Mr. Bergenheim left Moscow, the
headquarters of his organization, in
December. He confirms reports of
the famine conditions prevailing in
the cities of Northern Russia. The
situation in Petrograd is particularly
bad, he says.
Mr. Berkenheim intends to visit
New York, Washington, Chicago and
San Francisco. The principal object
of his trip to America is to develop
trade relations between the United
States and Russia, and to establish
offices on the eastern and western

he plans to ship large consignments
of American products to the Black
Sea districts of Russia, and from
the Pacific Ooast to Siberia. Here
to fore, the organization has had
only a few agents in the United
States.
The Ail-Russian Central Union of
Consumers' Societies is. Mr. Berken
heim says, the directing head of
various co-operative associations. It
embraces 450 unions made up of
35,000 societies with an individual
membership of 1 heads of
families. Counting five persons to
the family, it is reckoned that the
Centfral organization is supplying the
necessaries of life to some 60,000-

Great Piles of
Military Stores
May be Wasted
Cobtonr, March 20.—Great piles of
militai-y stores worth millions of
marks are lying in a hall In Frank
enberg, Hesse, and are likely to be
wasted unless soon cared for, says
the* Wcstphalian Volksblatt. Tho
supplies consist principally of army
uniforms thrown in great heaps after
the demobilization of the German
army.
New House of Commons
Is an Inquisitive one
. lonilon, March 20.—The now House
I of Commons is proving itself one of
' tho most inquisitive of recent years.
| This too, despite the absence of the
Irish members who in previous years
| have filled the question paper with
j inquiries.
j Since the opening of the parliament
' the number of questions to ministers
J has averaged well over 200 and some
i days has reached 300. As only an
hour is allowed each day for the
' asking and answering of questions
: only about a hundred cai. bo dealt
i with daily, the others being answered
!in writing. This does not satisfy
j the curiosity of the new members,
j who recently asked that the time
I should be extended by an hour and
' a quarter.
I In refusing the request, Mr. Bonar
i Law, the Government leader in the
| House of Commons said every ques
tion asked cost the country five dol
lars, chiefly in printing, not counting
the time of the permanent staffs of
I the different departments, who have
. to collect the data.

Look carefully at that jar and carton

TELEGKXFEE
MAKES REPORT ON
AMERICAN GUNS
Naval Document Says They (
Were Among Strongest
on Western Front
London, March 20. —The big
United States naval guns, some of
which have a range of 26 miles,
dropped 759 shells on seven objec
tives on the western front during
the last few weeks of fighting with
what a naval report prepared at
headquarters here terms "remark
able accuracy." The report further
says that they were anrong the
strongest guns on the western front.
In summarizing this navy activity,
; the report says the first shipment of
j these guns arrived at St. N'azaire.
France, July 25, 1918. The first gun
was mounted August 5, it left St.
Nazatre August 18, and arrived at
I tiring point August 24. All guns
! were mounted by August 17 and all
had been concentrated at llaussi
niont by September 26. The firing
| record shows the first shot was fired
on September 6 by a gun stationed
at Rethondes and firing at Tergnier.
The firing really got under way Sep
tember 14 and was kept up con
tinuously until 10:59 A. M. Novem
ber 1.1, one minute before hostilities
ceased. The last shot from Thier
ville dropped into I.onguyon.
The guns were taken from the
surplus of 25 per cent, of ordnance
allowed each battleship. Each gun
was mounted on a railway truck and
the complement for each consisted
of eight cars and a locomotive. The
most effective wor kwas done by
guns at Thierville firing at Mon
giennes and Uonguyno, by guns at
Soissons firing at Laon and those at
Charny firing at Montmedy.
Men Mustered Out Aided
in Finding tyew Jobs
Soldiers, sailors and marines at
ninety military and naval establish
ments in the United States are now
receiving first-hand information con
cerning opportunities for employ
ment in the Federal civil service from
representatives of the United States
Civil Service Commission, appointed
to serve at such establishments un
der authority issued by the Secre
tary of War and the Secretary of
the Navy.
These representatives of the Civil
Service Commission are supplied cur
rently with full information concern
ing positions open in the civil serv
ice in which men who are soon to be
mustered out may be interested. They
are prepared to inform the men con
cerning the requirements for Entrance
to the various positions, to supply
them with application blanks and
to facilitate in every way their appli
cation for employment in the civil
service. i
The commanding officers at the va
rious posts are co-operating fully
in the work, and the men in whose
interest the work is being performed
are showing a lively interest in it.
It is expected that this new organ
ization of the Civil Service Com
mission will result in placing in good
positions large numbers of the men
who left their Jobs to take part in
the war.
Peels Off Corns
Between Toes
The Great Corn Loosener of the
Age. Never Fails. Painless.
A corn mashed, squeezed and
crushed, all day long, in between two
toes! You can try the desperate,
"treat 'em rough" way and try to dig
"Two Dropeof All!"
it out and fail. Or, you can try the
sensible, peaceful, painless, easy way
and use "Gets'lt." It's easy for
"Gets-It" to remove corns in hard
to-get-at places. It's a liquid a
wonderful painless formula it has
never been successfully imitated. It i
settles on the corn, and dries imme
diately. Instead of digging out the
corn, you peel it out painlessly.
There's no sticky plaster that doesn't
stay "put," no salve that irritates or
rubs off. You reach the corn easily
with the little glass rod in the cork
of every "Gets-It" bottle. It does
not hurt the true flesh. Try it, trot
and smile! It's a blessing; never
fails.
"Gets-It," the guaranteed, money

way, costs bpt a trifle at any drug

Soft, Curly, Wavy Hair
Now Easy to Have
(Woman's Realm)
Beautiful, fluffy, natural-looking
curlS'or waves, without the use of the
ruinous curling iron, are now pos
sible for every woman. Yes, not only
possible, but very easily acquired
over night, and with benefit to the
life and health of the hair. It is
only necessary to apply a little liquid
siimerlne before retiring, using a
clean tooth brush for the purpose,
drawing this down the full length
of the tresses from root to tip. In
the morning the hair will have a
most delightful eurliness and lustre,
without the least suggestion of
grease or stickiness, and will be
quite controllable, no matter how the
hair is dope up.
As liquid silmerine is procurable
at any drug store and as a few
ounces of it will last for months, no
womam need put up with that flat,
lank, dank appearance of the hair
which gives such an unwholesome
look of plainness to most faces.
