Stuttgart, Germany, Dec. 3O.-Alfred

state of the German empire, died
suddenly at his home here today after
brief illness. Won Kiderlen- -Waech-
ter was enjoying his usual Christmas
visit to his sister. the Baroness Won

He had felt extremely i'll for several
days, so much so that the physicians
who were called in feared the fatal
termination as his heart action was
very irregular. The end came at 1850
o'clock this morning. Won Kiderlen-
Waechter. was so years old.
He had occupied the Office of
imperial secretary of state of foreign
affairs only. since June 2S, 1910, when
he succeeded Wilhelm Won Schoen,
who became the German ambassador
to France.
The advent of Kiderlen- -Waechter
was not. greeted with great enthusiasm
In the German imperial parliament.
He was a poor orator and his speeches
did not create q good impression. He
was known, however, as one of the
silrewdest naaftjl in 4GShTman diplomacy
and was regarded as an expert ";af-
fairs Of the near east, owing to mis-
having been stationed for long time
in the Balkans, and his disappearance
from the German cabinet at the
present time is considered to be a
great misfortune.
During, his short period in the office
of the foreign affairs secretary, he was
successful in steering the international
policies of the German Empire through

more especially in regard to the settle
ment of the dispute between France
and Germany as to the future Of
Morocco. Owing to the suddenness of
his DEATH there has been no talk as

NO RETRACTlON In
BISMARCK CASE

Bismarck, N, D., Dec. 30.-The
statements which have been sent to
the newspapers of the northwest from
this city relative to the dismissal Of
the Times Patterson criminal libel
cases are without foundation. The
criminal cases were dismissed by
Judge Winchester on motion of
States Atty. w. L. Smith who con-
tended that the defendants could not
be convicted as no crime had been
committed. He also contended that
the defendants had not had a pre-
liminary hearing and that neither the
states attorney nor the attorney
general had approved the starting OF
the actions. No retraCtiOn of any kind
has been filed with him either prior
to or since the dismissal of the cases.

JUST THINK OF IT
A -Four Hundred Dollar Upton Piano

That advertising is now a science
Is again demonstrated practically to
the buying public OF this section by
the wonderful advertising system now
employed by the most enterprislng
business house Of PRESLEY g. SONS
who are going TO give away ABSO-
LUTELI FREE to some one Of their
customers on March /, 1913, the beau
tiful UPTON PARLOR GRAND
PIANO which is now on exhibition
at their store. The Upton Piano
sells for four hundred dollars and is a
HIGH CLASS instrument In every
respect, guaranteed by the makers
for TEN YEARS. JUST THINK
OF 1T! A Four Hundred Dollar Pi-
ano 10 be GIVEN AWAY! A few
years ago. If merchant was to do
such thing he would be considered
nc subject for an asylum, but con-
ditions have changed, yet in the face
OF the enormous sum spent In adver-
tising the fact Of PRESLEY & SONS
giving away 100000 Piano is a stu
pendous undertaking and it clearly
demonstrates their desire TO be "al-
ways up and little ahead Of the
spirit of the times.
Every purchaser Of SlOO worth Of
goods from any department Of their
store will receive coupon good for
100 votes on the piano. The person
presenting the largest number Of
votes to them by March /, 1918, will
receive the piano absolutely free. No
favors will be shown and every person
will receive an equal chance. The
reputation enjoyed by j. w. PRES
LEY & SONS for "sQuare dealing"
insures this fact. We think the buy
ing people will appreciate this ex-
tremely liberal offer on the part Of

Breakfast Foods

The mission Of the breakfast food
is to provide brains for people who
have been overlooked in the draw.
Nearly all breakfast foods are
guaranteed to build up the human
brain and replace all worn parts,
without satisfying hunger or injur-
ing the delicate fabric of the appe-
tite.
One pound of breakfast food,
taken just before catching the 7:4O
car, will put a man in condition to
go without anything but a restless
feeling IN the stomach until 0:45 a.

One of the most painful expert

visit some vegetarian relative and
be led up to a plate of fluffy break.

coffee. This will embitter his en-
tire stay, and also cut 1t short
with great rapidity.
Some people are able to intercept
a dish of pre.digested breakfast
food at sunrise and not eat thing
until night except popcorn, choco

They then return home for dinner

fast foods than men, as with their
aid man can prepare his own break

The average breakfast food con-
