NOT so MUCH MlLITARIShl.
Less Gold Lace at White House Now
Wilson is President.

There will be drop in gold lace in
Washington the next four years, and
not so much of it seen around the
White House during the present adj
ministration, as hitherto.
If Pr ssident Wilson carries out his
plan ia reduce the number of mill
tary aids which have attended the
two former presidents. it will be a
great change. 1t became known yes
terday that Major Thomas l.. Rhode.
u. s. A., who was military aid ano
medical adviser TO President Taft. has
recommended that the present corps
of twelve officers OF the Army, Navy
and Marine Corps be cut in half.
Furthermore, President Wilson
probably will dispense with the pres
ence Of uniformed aid in his travels
about the country The present svs-
TEN of personal military staff at
the White House was created bv
President Roosevelt and continued by
President Taft. Major Archibald w.
Butt, who lost his life in the Titanic
disaster, was responsible for estab-
fishing the precedent of wearing full
dress uniform while accompanying
both former presidents.
Major Butt felt that, as be was
on duty, h should conform to the
re gulations and appear in uniform.
His understanding of the regulations

OF Lake Erie. September 10, 1913
A crowd Of hall frozen curious
seekers were held back with difficulty
when the gun ports became visible.
and it was established beyond
doubt that the battered hulk was that
Of the Niagara. The binding snow
and cracking ice halted the work and
the old craft was lifted but four feet
above the water
she extends 10 feet, has a so
foot beam and is about ten feet deep.
The bottom is Off che lake level for
the first time in nearly a century
Four pontoons are located midships
and al the stern aud bow, from which
chains suspend, holding the Niagara
up six feet
Sceptics who asserted that the
hulk was that of an ancient canal
boat were convinced when they saw,

that the battered craft will be raised

vox POPULI.
CANAL ZONE PART OF U. S.
Court Holds Residence There in Sui
iicieDt for Naturalization.

Judge Thompson in the Naturali-
cation Court Of New York, decided
that the Cana, Zone is a portion of
the United States and that resi-
dence in the Canal Zone permits a
person to seek naturalization in this
country
The decision was given in the
case of Louis. Kurath. The Govern
ment sought to bar the woman from
naturalization although she had
been employed as a Government
nurse in the Canal Zope for the last
siA years.
The case of Miss Kurath passed
upon was the first case to come un-
der the jurisdiction of the Bureau
of Naturalization since it became q
part of the Department of Labor
on Tuesday.

Indications Favor Ice Crop IN Some
Parts.

Although very little very cold wealth
or has aided Anne Arundel countians
to house an ice crop. yet some have
hlled their h0uss in different sections.
len reviewing weather conditions of
February, the United States Weather
Bure au yesterday announced:
Good rains and moderate snowfall
in the west IN portions Of the winter
wheat. growing districts furnished
murh-needed moisture, while over
Texas and the western portion Of the
cotton belt good rains put the soil in
excellent condition
Snowfall, on the whole, was less
than the average, although moderate
amounts fell in the great plains and
central valleys, and there was con-
siderable addition to the amounts
stored in the mountain districts ~ the
West, where the outlook FOR water
during the coming crop season has beap
considerably improved.
The ice harvest in New England
began during the month. and re6orts
now Indicate that a good crop IS being
gathered under favorable conditions.

How to Use Peruna
for Coughs and Colds

II Peruna were used at the begin
ming Of every cold, coughs would gen.
orally be prevented.
After the cough begins Peruna will
generally stop 1t just as quickly as 1t
ought to be stopped. To stop a cough
before all of the expectoration has
been removed Is to do great injury.
After the expectoration has been
properly removed the cough will stop
itself. That Is the only proper way
to stop cough.
Occasionally a cough depends upon
an irritable condition Of the larynx
or bronchial tubes. in which there Is
little or no expectoration.
The problem Of stopping such a
cough Is a slightly different one.
Even in those cases Peruna ought to
be taken. but sometimes 1t Is neces-
sary that local treatment be added.
Every one who has troublesome
cough or a lingering cold should write
the Peruna Company. Columbus.
Ohio, for a free copy of the ellis Of
Life" There Is no free pamphlet dis
tributed to-day Of more real value
to the sick and afflicted than the new
Ellis of Life" 1t Is filled from cover
to cover with actual cases of cough,
colds and other climatic diseases In
all stages and complications. You
could scarcely fail to find your case
exactly described in this book.
To neglect to do everything possible
to get rid Of a stubborn cold or
chronic cough is very unwise indeed.
Peruna has enjoyed a great reputa-
ton as remedy In such cases for
thirty or forty years. AS a rule. q
person who uses one bottle Of 1t is
always afterwards an enthusiastic
advocate OF Peruna. Peruna itself Is
Q means Of selling more Peruna than
all advertisements put together.
Those who object to liquid medi-
cines can now obtain Peruna Tablets.
