WHEN FEELING TIRED
Hoods sarsaparilIa Builds Up tho
Whole System-Makes Pure Blood.

That tired feeling that comes to
You in the spring, year after year,
is a sign that your blood lacks Vi
tally, just as pimples, boils and
other eruptions are signs that it is
impure; and it is also sign that
your system is i'll a low or rundown
condition inviting disease. 1t is a
warning, which ii is wise to heed.
Ask your druggist for Hoods
Sarsaparilla. This old standard
tried and true blood medicine re-
lieyes that tired feeling. It cleanscs
the blood, gives new lie. new cour-
age. strength and cheerfulness. 1t
makes the rich, red blood that will
make YOU feel, look, eat and sleep
better.
BE sure to get Hoods, because it
is the best. There is no other COM
bination of roots, barks and herbs
like it-no real substitute for it
no "just-as-good" medicine.

that any fighting government that
attempted to make peace now on any
terms conceivably acceptable to their
enemies, would perish under tho
wrath of their citizenship, who would
fear that the great sacrifices they had
made were not to result in the indem-
mites and other advantages that they
had hoped for.
The warning nations, then, will not
propose terms of peace until exhaus-
ton or victory comes. The neutral
countries, although they are seriously
affected and suffer seriously from the
effects of the war, can have but little
hope that any proposal they may
make will be acceptable now. Tenta-
tive attempts in this direction have
failed. The danger is, therefore, that
peace will eventually be made by the
warning nations alone and through
the same diplomats who were not
able to prevent this devastating war.

Effect of the War.
In the first place no foreign trade
can be established with any country
in the world except as there are buy
crs in that country who have sufli-
cient buying power On account of
the great world war that is going on,
this buying power is seriously threat
ened not only in the warning nations
but also in the neutral nations. Even
before the war began, in every I'M
portant country of the world IL had
been reduced by the high cost of liv.
ing, which had been mounting so fast
as to become a serious burden. This
high cost of living will inevitably be
largely increased by the cost of war;
for even if that cost is capitalized, the
interest on it will add very heavily to
the burdens of every citizen in every
warning country. And if the settle
mcnt of this war is such that Europe
remains an armed camp and every
nation must strain itself to the ut
most to keep its aramaments effective
as compared with those of its rivals
or enemies, there will be added TO
that increased high cost of living the
enormous additional cost of the in
creasing ornaments.
That will curtal the buying power
Of all the warning nations and may
limit the purchases of the masses
to the necessities of life
for many years to come. Countries
from such conditions can Of
fer but poor markets for trade evpan-
sion, however good our planning for
such expansion be. More than this,
their curtailment of buying power
must react so strongly upon the other
of the world, upon South
America and Asia. for example, as to
make these other countries also
poorer fields for our trade expansion
than they would otherwise be.
1t becomes apparent at once then
that great exertion and great expense
for foreign trade expansion must be

ton to make the terms of settlement

Mayor Kage's attorney, in discuss

WASEM TAKEN TO
ST. LOUIS HOSPITAL
X-Ray Photograph to Be Taken
of Stomach-May Undergo
Operation.

H. c. Wasem, accompanied by his
physician, DR., Paul R. Williams, de-
parted yesterday afternoon for st.
Louis where Mr.. Wasem will enter St.
Johns Hospital.
Mr.. Wasem has suffered fol-. a long
time with a stomach disorder, and is
now recuperating from a severe at
tack of gastric hemorrhages with
which he was suddenly seized several
weeks ago.
Upon the advice of his physician he
will enter the hospital for the purpose
of having his stomach subjected to an
X-ray examination to ascertain if pos
sible the exact nature of the disease.
About two years ago, Mr.. Wasem
underwent a surgical operation in a
hospital in Cairo, at which time it was
found necessary to make incisions and
form new orifice or opening from
the stomach to the intestine.
When he was discharged from the
hospital it was believed that a per-
manent cure had been effected, but
several months later there was a re-
turn of the old symptoms, which be-
came more and more pronounced, until
his condition became so serious that
he collapsed several months ago, while
standing in front of his drug store on
Good Hope street, and for a time it
was not believed that he would re-
cover.
The second attack about two
months ago was even more severe
than the first, and it is feared that he
would not be able to withstand the
suffering of another one. His phys
icians are of the opinion that the arti-
ficial orifiee made when the operation
was performed two years ago, has
partially closed, and is not of suffi-
cient capacity to properly provide for
the passage of the contents Of the
stomach, thus causing irritation and
distress.
If upon examination it is found
necessary to perform a second opera
ton in order to give the relief sought,
Mr.. Wasem will have the service rem
dered before returning to the Cape.

GARRETT GLENN GOT
A VOTE FOR MAYOR
Frank Kimmel Says He Voted
for Merchant as a Dark
Horse.

Frank Kimmel is the emblem of
punk luck. He is a politician, of the
old school type, yet he never repeats
at an election. But he does like to vote
split ticket, and enjoys the reputa-
ton of never picking a winner.
But, like all champions, they must
hit the toboggan sooner or later, and
Frank Kimmel is right on it now.
When Phillips came out for mayor,
Frank lined up for him. Then when
Kochtitzky tossed his hat into the
ring, championed by Col. T. Jeff
Shorb, Kimmel flipped nickels at
crack to decide how to vote, but miss
ed the crevice.
When he entered the polling booth
Tuesday morning, he had his mind
made up as to how he would vote on
the general city and council tickets,
but he was undecided for mayor. Just
to keep peace with himself, he cast his
vote for Garrett Glenn for mayor.
He voted for several dark horses
and Henry P. Gaines. And Mr.. Gaines
was the only live one Kimmel selected.
"Some class to the Kimmel boys" he
said when discovered that he picked
one winner.
Tuesday afternoon when the voting
was at its heaviest in the Second
ward, the timbers supporting the floor
of the polling place gave way, and for
a short time the crowd confined in the
building was almost panic stricken.
When the supports broke the floor
dropped to the ground, and a number
of the voters and election officers
thought at first that the building had
collapsed and that the walls were Civ
ing way.
Martin Kruger, one of the judges,
was seated in the center Of the room,
and in describing his sensations to 2
Tribune reporter, said: when l fell
the floor giving way, my first thought
was that the walls of the building
were yielding and that the structure
was about to fall.
81 thought that could see the walls
heaving, and as the floor sank 1 felt
certain that we would be caught in
the crash of the falling walls.
"The crowd quickly left the build
ing, and when the unusual weight was
removed, the floor sprung back into
its natural position, and further dam
ger was avoided by having the broken
timbers repaired, and supports placed
under them.

votes; A. H. Mueller 80, and Dave
Harris as.
Charles Armgardt was reelected
Councilman in the Second ward over
Louis Wittmor and Samuel Boutin.
Wittmor and Boutin ran a close race
for second place, Wittmor defeating
Boutin by four votes. Armgardt's
plurality over Wittmor was So votes.
Charles Kaess was reelected Council
man from the Third ward by plural
ity of fifty votes over Henry G.

closest to Kaess, finished third, or

ELECTION CALLED
FOR APRIL 3 TO
VOTE SCHOOL TAX
Plan Defeated Tuesday Was
Same That Was In Force
Last Season.
IF THE PROJECT LOSES
SCHOOLS MUST CLOSE
Supt. Croker Says its Impossible
to Continue After
Christmas.

The School Board yesterday issued
notice Of a special election to be held
Friday, April %, to again vote on the
proposition to increase the school tax
from 40 cents on the S100 assessed
valuation to 81 on the S100 assessed
valuation. This tax increase was voted
down at the city election Tuesday by
an overwhelming vote.
1t is believed that its GeIeat was due
to the fact that the people were under
the impression that it called for an
increase over last years school tax.
The school tax rate would be just as
it was last year, had the proposition
carried Tuesday.
Under the constitution city is not
permitted to levy tax of more than
40 cents on the hundred dollar assess
ed valuation unless the voters author
ize it at an election. This increase
was voted last year, but in order to
keep the tax rate in force, it is neces-
sary for the voters to approve of it
each year.
The tax proposition killed Tuesday
was exactly the same that the people
approved last year. Nearly every city
in Southeast Missouri levies school
tax of 81 on the 500 assessed valua-
ton. Among the best known of these
cities are, Jackson, Charleston, Skies
ton, Fredericktown and Poplar Bluff.
Nearly all of the cities in the central
part of the State make this levy, in
cluding those in the vicinity of St.
Louis, with the exception of st. Char
les, which only levies 40 cents on the
$10O valuation. But st. Charles only
has 500 pupils enrolled, while the
number in the Cape Girardeau schools
was 1000 during the past year, and
there is a regular annual increase.
Superintendent Crocker yesterday
informed The Tribune that with a
school tax of not more than forty
cents on the $100 valuation, every pub
lie school in the city would be COM
PEELED to close by Christmas, if not be-
fore.
eve could not keep our schools
open during the regular period on
that amount" he said. 81 am positive
that the voters were under the i'm
preston that the tax proposition voted
upon Tuesday called for an increase
in the taxation. 1t is exactly the same
as was approved by the people last
year, but in order to keep the levy in
force, it is necessary to vote upon it
each year."
Superstitious people are somewhat
dubious over the date set for the spe-
cial election. AS it falls upon Friday,
the 23rd, they believe that means de-
feat. In the event that the PROPOSE
tion fails to pass, another election will
be called, it was announced yesterday.
