BERLIN OFFER OF
PEACE LOOKED FOR
Official London Expects That
Definite Proposal Will Come
Before Winter
a
STATUS QUO BASIS LIKELY
High Official Antkorlty In London Give
the Associated Press a Statement
on the Situation In
Germany.
-London, Aug. 27. (By Mail)
Throughout official London, the belief
is held that a very definite peace ffer
will come from Germany before win
ter and that the offer will suggest im
mediate cessation of hostilities on a
.status quo basis.
Entente statesmen have fully indi
cated that they will refuse such terms
and no doubt Germany is aware" of
this. But German leaders regard a
etatus quo offer from the German side
as an indispensable step in the prepar-
ation of German public opinion for
further concessions.
A high official authority gave The
Associated Press today the following
statement of the situation in Germany
as regards peace:
"There is no doubt that the German
government is anxious to get out of
the war at the earliest possible mo
ment on any terms which wiU insure
them against revolution at home and
national collapse.
"Great numbers - of people in Ger
many today would welcome a peace
on a status quo basis, this meaning
practically a dra-wi in which no belli
gerent would occupy.any territory be
yond that which it possessed in July,
1914, and in which, moreover, each
side would bear its own burdens in
respect of the material losses. But it
' Is impossible to say how far this view
has spread among the German pro-
it ru,:u:"1'
of public expression. It is obvious
that if the German people ultimately
come to accept a net loss of territory
as inevitable, they must pass to that
frame of mind through the intermedi-
ate stage of a willingness to accept a I
status quo peace. If the war continues ,
conclude such a peace will certainly
be made as soon as the pressure reach
es a certain point.
01u ucwua..,, u v.-
feAyeraSf- thcntinue,d Psure
of the Entente and the entry of the
United States have completely chang
ed the situation. The question is now,
in fact, not what are the war aims
which Germany will impose before she
grants peace, but- what terms she her
self will be willing to accept. That
is a very simple statement of the
greatest fact in the far situation to
day
"The entry or tne unitea btates and
many of the South American reput-
lies has put economic matters into the I
foreground,
"The German government must ob-
viously view with extreme apprehen-1
sion the situation at home in the
months immediately succeeding the
declaration of peace. The physicju
exhaustion of the people and of the
country, combined with the want of
tood, which cannot be immediately 1
remedied, and the want of raw ma-1
terial for starting manufactures, will
create a most serious situation. If,

the Korniloff program, the provisional
floats sentence through govern
ment reviewing commissioners at the
front. .
Apparently General Korniloff de
spaired of improving the situation by
carrying out his frequent threats to
resign, and finally became satisfied
that his influence was sufficiently pow
erful to wrest the entire government
from the provisional cabinet.
The provisional government's decla
ration of martial law in Petrograd and
the substitution of General Klembov-r
sky as commander-in-chief, is accept
ed as indicating that Kerensky does
not count on compromise tactics against
the revolt.
.A gleam of hope came from Foreign
Minister Terestchenko's statement in
an interview today that he believed
the revolt "not dangerous" and "part
ly due to a misunderstanding which
will be cleared up" In this connec
tion, it is expected by persons familiar
with the vicissitudes of Russian poli
tics, that General Korniloff's action
has no connection with the recently
disclosed plot to restore the monarchy,
but it is intended by its promoters as
the quickest means to the common end
of preserving Russian democracy
against Germany.
A number of times recently it has
been denied by the provisional minis
ters that the government was at odds
with General Korniloff, despite re-
norts that Korniloff reDeatedly had
threatened to resign if army office
were not given more power to en
discipline. Last May he resigned "as
commander of the Petrograd garrison
because workmens' and Soldiers dele
gates insisted on a referendum on mili
tary orders.
Officials here see in the appointment
of General Klembovisky, who has com
manded the armies in the north during
the recent retreat before Riga, evi
dence that the government" hopes to
strengthen its northern positions and
hold the Germans against further ad
vance on Petrograd.
General Klembovsky is one of the
younger Russian generals. He is re
garded as an excellent military tac
tician, and of strong personality.

Raleigh, N. C, Sept. 10. Governor
Bickett has received official advices
from the commiswy division of the
War Department to the effect that
those charged with the purchase of
supplies for the Federal armies have
been directed to include the sweet po
tato. This order came after Governor
Bickett. had pressed upon the depart
ment the justice as well as the ne
necessity of including thiff principal
Southern and especially North Carolina
product and had assured the War De
partment that if there was one thing
that the soldiers wornd fight for after
they had once gotten the taste of
them, it was the North Carolina yams
or other varieties of sweet potatoes.
The issue was first raised by Com
missioner of Agriculture W. A. Graham
when he found that the sweet potato
was not Included in the list of farm
products that the commissary divis
ions were authorized to purchase in
the open market for feeding the sol
diers. He wa advised when he took
the matter up with the War Depart
ment that the list of products had
been carefully selected and that there
was no probability of there being any
change ordered. Then it was, Gover
nor Bickett wrote a letter that caught
the attention of the authorities most
forcefully and brought the order to
add this staple crop to the list of
army foodstuffs.

NBW YORK, N. Y. Since the re
markable discovery of organio iron,
Nuxated Iron or "Fer Nuxate," as the
French call it, has taken the country
by storm. It is conservatively estimat
ed that over three million people annu
ally are taking it in this country alone,.
Most astonishing results are reported
from its use by both physicians and
laymen. So much so that doctors pre
dict that we shall soon have a new age
of ar more beautiful, rosy-cheeked
women and vigorous -men.
Dr. Ferdinand King, a New York
physician and medical author, when
Interviewed on this subject, said:
"There can be no vigorous men with
out iron. Pallor means anaemia. An
aemia means iron deficiency. The skin
of anaemic men and women is pale;she
flesh flabby. The muscles lack tone;
the brain fags, and the. memory fails
and often they' become weak, nervous,
irritable, despondent and melancholy.
When the iron goes from the biood q
women, the roses go from their cheeks.
"In the most common foods of Amer
ica, the starches, sugars, white bread,
soda crackers, biscuits, macaroni, spa
ghetti, tapioca, sago, farina, degermi
nated cornmieal, no longer Is iron to be
found. Refining processes have remov
ed the iron of Mother Earth from these
impoverished foods, and silly methods
of home cookery, by throwing down the
waste pipe the water in which our veg
etables are cooked, are responsible for
another grave iron loss.
'Therefore, if you wish to preserve
your youthful vim and vigor to a ripe
old age, you must supply the iron defi
ciency in your food by using some form
of organic Iron, Just as you- would use
salt when your food has not enough
salt."
Former Health Commissioner Wm. R.
Kerr, of the city of Chicago, says: "I
have taicen Nuxated Iron myself and
experienced its health giving, strength
building effect and in the interest of
the public welfare, I fel it my duty
to make known the results of its use.
I am well past three score years and
want to say that I believe my ow
great physical activity is largely due
today to my personal use of Nuxated
Iron. From my own experience with
Nuxated Iron. I feel it is such a valua
ble remedy that it ought to b used in
every hospital and prescribed by every
physician in this country."
Dr. E3. Sauer, a Boston physician who
has studied bothin this country and
in -great Europan medical institutions,
said: "As I have said a hundred times
over, organic iron Is the greatest of
all strength builders."
"Not long ago a man came to me
who was nearly half a century old and
asked m.e to give him a preliminary
examination for life insurance. I was
astonished to And him with the blood
pressure of a boy of twenty and as full
of vigor, vim and vitality as a young

soil deficient in iron. If you are not
strong or well, you owe it to yourself
to make the following test: See how
long you can work or how far you can
walk without becoming tired. Next
take two five-grain tablets of ordinary
nuxated iron three times per day after
meals for two weeks. Then test your

given out any medical information or
advice fori publication as I ordinarily
do not befieve in it. But in the case

and one which should be generally
prescribed by all physicians. Not
withstanding the fact that I am near
ing my 80th birthday, a short course
of Nuxated Iron has made me feel like
a new man. Friends say, 'What have
you been doing to yourself, you look
so well and full of life?" In my opin
ion there is nothing like organic iron
Nuxated Iron to put youthful strength
and power into the veins of the weak,
run-down, Infirm or aged. But be
ware of the old forms of metallic iron
which often do more ftarm than good.
To be absolutely sure that my patients
get. real organic iron and not some
form of metallic variety, I always pre
scribe Nuxated Iron in its original
packages."
NOTE: Nuxated Iron, which is pre
scribed and recommended above by phy
sicians in such a variety of cases, is
not a patent medicine nor secret reme
dy, but one which is well nown to
druggists and whose iron, constituents
are widely prescribed by eminent phy
sicians both in Europe and America,
unlike the older inorganic iron products
it is easily assimilated, does not injure
the teeth,, make them black, nor upset
the stomach; on the contrary, it is a
most potent remedy in nearly all forms
of indigestion as well as for nervous, run
down conditions. The manufacturers
have such great confidence in nuxated
Iron that they offer to forfeit $100 to
any charitable Snstitution'if they cannot
take any man or woman under 60 who
lacks iron and increase their strength
100 per cent or over in four weeks' time,
provided they .have no serious organic
trouble. They also offer to refund your
money 'if it does not at least double
your strength and endurance in ten days
time. It is dispensed in this city by Jar
man & Futrelle and all good druggists.
