FRIDAY, Maj 16, im ' i r-. —' GERMAN PEOPLE PROTEST No great nation in the world’s his- tary has been called upon to accept terms of -{t^ace so ;stem and drastic ^ were handed to the German dele gation at Versailles by representa tives of the Allies a few days ago. When signed it means the end of Ger man militarism and a guarantee that another great war will never be visit ed upon the civilized world. The German people object to the altimatum handed them, of course. That was to be cxpected. But their peace delegates have no other alter native, They mush either subscribe to tlie terms or submit to consequen ces which will bring them face to face 'vith conditions morflr humiliating. They are reaping what they them- aelves have sown and have no reason to expect any milder terms than the victors now propose. In 1914 Ger- inariy fully believed her armies would prevail and here are the demands * Count von Bernstorf reported to Premier Clemenceau the latter part •f the year; The ceding of Morocco, Algeria, and Tunis to Germany. yhe annexation by Germany of all tiiat part of France following a ilraight line from St. Valery to C.yons. This is about one-fourth of France, v/ith 15,000,000 inhabitants. An ideamity of ten billion francs. The admission of goods made in Germany into France free of duty for twenty-five years. jio Amariea pidcl lutf wat 1^ ya^er MfH^vdat^ ing the ti»* oar Ratolutioii, whMii h«4 to ■> tang oi' d^ied the ris^ of ^d^^ndence .^4 lev^d vfaTinfHh thcr Ajmerican colonies WM two-Hiirds German, lus sokUers were largely hireling PvaWius, and hia policy relative to America aroiiaeil the bitterest hostility tlie%to<oi^- est nii6n pf the empire. : V Note this vehement titterancev^ of Lord Chatham: **Yon cannot, I*vent;are to say it, you cannot conquer America.* What is your present situation ^ere?

To avail our selves of well being the first is to be done, the second to be observed, the more thoroughly, the better from all standpoints. It can be stated without fear of successful contradiction that a large number of our ills come from neglect of this injunction. Homes that are neglected, bodies that are not clean, foods that are contaminat ed are sources of danger .as are premises that are allowed to harbor piles of refuse offering to any and all malevolett germs a harbor in which to multiply and spread by winds and weather as for instance water chang ed with them from one place to an other to say nothing about the danger from flies and other insect pests. In our relations with each other in our -community life no person has a right to be in any way a menace to his neighbors. If the person respon sible for a lack of cleanliness were the only sufferer it would not be so deplorable but as stated above whole communities are. affected by the filt® of one person even as the useful ness of a chain depends upon -the strength of the individual Imks.

There was a pain over my kidnejfs all' the time and it kept ^e miserable. When I would go up or down stairs pains would shoot through my back so bad that I could hardly move and often I would get so dizzy I would nearly \ fall. I had dizzy headaches and my ankles and hands swelled, too My kidneys didn’t act properly. I tried different remedies- with no relief and finally I heard of Doan’s Kidney Pills.

WHY BUY BREAD OUT OF TOWN WHEN YOU CAN GET MORE BREAD AND BETTER SAME MONEY YOUR HOME CALOMEL DYNAMITES A SUIG6ISH LlifER Crashes Into SouF Bile, Making You Sick and You Lose a Day’s Work. Calomel salivates! It’s mercury. Calo mel acts like dynamite on a sluggish liver. When calomel comes into contact with sour bile it crashes into it. causing cramp ing and nausea. ^ If you feel ^bilious, headachy, consti pated and all knocked out, just go to your druggist and get a bottle of Dodson’s Liver Tone for a few cents, which is a harmless vegetable substitute for dangerous calo> mel. Take a spoonful and if it doesn’^tart your liver and straighten you up better and quicker than nasty calomel and without making you skk, you just go back and get your money. If you take calomel today you’ll be sick and nauseated tomorrow; besides, it may salivate you, while if yon take Dodson’s Liver Tone you will wak&up feeling ^eat. full of ambition and ready for work or play. It’s harmless, pleasant and safe to give to children; they like it—Adverfise- ment. ' * NDTI(]ET0HD11^~ Pler.se take notice that the County.
