MISREPRESENTATION

PEACE COMING
WOULD HAVE A PERMANENT
COURT ESTABLISHED At
THE HAGUE SOON.
DISARMAMENT OF NATIONS
ExPENSESoF THE COURT TO BE
NET B YALI THE NATIONS
CONCERNED.

washington, April 20-Ultimate
disarmament of the nations of the
world is practicable, in the opinion
of Secretary Knox. He believes the
establishment of a court of arbitral
justice to which the nations Of the
world may appeal for settlement of
their controversies, will have the ef-
feet as it's own natural consequence
of not merely reducing armament,
but ultimately of rendering large
armaments unnecessary.
His plan for the establishment of
such court, which was outlined In
an identical note sent in last fall to
various nations, is said to be meeting
with general favor, and Mr.. Knox
believes that a court will be consti-
tuted at The Hague in the near fu-
ture.
BY way of explanation Of his plan
for the establishment of the court,
the secretary today said that the ex-
istence of permanent tribunal of
arbitral justice would make re-
sort to it very easy, as, being in
permanent session, it would not have
to be constituted anew for each case
as it arises: that the expenses of the
court would be borne by the nations
jointly, not, as heretofore, by the
parties in controversy, and that the
judgments of the court would bind
all the parties interested in the par
ticuar controversy. The court would
be composed of judges representing
various nations or systems of law,
and, it is expected, would develop
International law just as the common
law of England and the United
States has been developed by judi,
cial decision.

50 YEARS OF SOCC ES

A REMEDY FOR CATARRH-
THE MEDICINE COSTS
NOTHING II IT
FAILS.

When a medicine effects a success
full treatment in very large major
ity of cases, and when we offer that
medicine on our own personal guar
antee that it will cost the user moth
ing if it does not completely relieve
catarrh, it is only reasonable that peo'
pie should believe us, or at least put
our claim to a practical test when we
take all the risk. These are facts
which we want the people to substan-
tiate. We want them to try Rexall
Mucu-Tone, a medicine prepared from
a prescription of a physician with
whom catarrh was specially, and
who has record of thirty years of
'enviable success to his record.
We receive more good reports about
Rexall Mucu-Tone than we do of all
other catarrh remedies sold in our
store, and it more people only knew
what thoroughly dependable rem
edy Rexall Mucu Tone is, it would be
the only catarrh remedy we would
have any demand Tor.
Rexall Mucu-Tone is quickly all
sorbed and by it's therapeutic effect
tends to disinfect and cleanse the en-
tire mucous memOraneOuS tract. TO
destroy and remove the parasites,
which injure the membraneous It's
sues, to soothe the irritation and heal
the soreness, stop the mucous dis
charge, build up strong, healthy It's
sues and relieve the blood and sys-
tenn of diseased fatter. The influence
Is toward stimulating the muco-cells,
aiding digestion and improving nu-
triton until the whole body vibrates
with healthy activity. In compare
lively short time it brings about q
noticeable gain in weight, strength,
good color and feeling of buoyancy.
We urge you to try Rexall Mucu-
Tone, beginning treatment today.
At any time you are not satisfied,
simply come and tell us, and we will
quickly return your money without
question or quibble. We have Rex
all Mucu-Tone in two sizes, so cents
and $1.00. Remember, you can OBJ

JEFFRIES PUT IN
some HEAVY WORK

Ben Lomond, Cal. April 20.-Three
rounds of fast boxing with Fob Arm
strong, the big negro pugilist, was the
most interesting feature of Jim Jeff
ries' training stunts today
Jeffries had been instructed by
Berger to put some steam behind his
punches. He obeyed so we'll that Mr..
Armstrong was more than:willing to
quit at the end of the three rounds
Jeffries' old punch landed several
times with telling effect on the negro.
At the end of the match .Jeffries was
willing to go another round or two
but Armstrong refused.
Jeffries reversed the regular order
of things at the camp today. He
crowded a full days labor Ito the
morning session as though eager to
make up for his layoff of yester-
day.
Besides the boxing. Jeffries went
through his regular indoor work, the
handball court alone escaping notice.
There was red tinge to his face and
he went at his tasks with vim of
perfect health.

western part of the city and proved to
be the house owned by C.. A. Butler,
but occupied by two families, /. F.
Miller and F. E. Howe. Before the
hose cart could be drawn to the
scene, the house was enveloped in
a circle of flames. The fire was
caused by the explosion of lamp
in one of the rooms down stairs Mrs.
Miller and Mrs. Howe were up stairs
at the time and herd the noise of the
explosion. but thinking it only the
return of their husbands. thought
nothing of it until the floor was all
aflame and the smoke began to as
cend above, then rushing down the
stairs they Immediately began to do
all within their power to save what
they could. The alarm was turned
in as soon as possible but the flames
famed by strong wind, made it i'm
possible to save but small portion
of the household goods. The Occu-
pants Of the house had no insurance
but the house itself was insured for
in the nefghborhood of fifteen hund-
red dollars. 1t would b2 we'll to sug-
gest for the benefit of those who do
not know, the fact that the location
of the different fire wards and how to
trace the fire, will be found in the
