Among the very large number of
Nerv-Worth endorsements given at
Parkersburg during the phenomenal
campaign which is still on there in
full force the following. from Albert
Cough, of roete five there. was one Of
the most convincing. AS Mr.. Cough
is well and favorably known TO Clarks-
burg readers his statement will be read
with keen interest:
Il have suffered twenty years with
rheumatism and nervous disorders. At
times I'm have nervous cramps in my
legs and arms. The leaders would pun
out and stand out. which would be
very painful. These pains would be
mostly al night. Many nights in this
long period would not close an eye.
Sometimes Id have those cramps in
daytime. My appetite during this
time was good enough. ! had contin-
uous headaches and dizziness for all
these years. doctored all these years
and took all kinds Of medicine. have
taken one bottle of Wentworth. Have
not had one cramp. Sleep fine. feel
good in the morning. cheerfully
recommend Sery-Worth because it's
the only medicine that ever did me any
good. I'm "a years old.
Remember that the Burke Drug
Store sells Nerv-Worth exclusively in

OUTBREAKS

SHANGHAI. China. Dec. 6.-The
outbreaks of small bands Of rebels
within the last twenty-four hours
have been put down by the authors
ties. who now apparently have the sit
uation well In hand.
The cruiser Chaotic. seized yester-
day afternoon by forty men who
boarded 1t from a launch. was aban-

ter 1t had been shelled and set on
fire. It was reported at first that
the crew of the Chaotic had muffin
led, but II developed today that the
bombardment by the cruisers of
another feet and the arsenal was car
ried on under no compulsion from the
rebels. who surprised and overpow-
cred the crew. Three men on the
cruiser were killed. An attack from
land on the arsenal at midnight was
repulsed quickly after some rife fir

urging political parties in euch
OF the states to adopt MS planks in
their platforms, favoring the league.
national assemblage OF the
league is to be held annually In
Washington.
The League to Enforce Peace was
organized in Philadelphia. in indie
pendence Hall, on June IL. Mr.
Taft was elected president and a
platform. consisting of four definite
proposals was adopted. the main
point of which is contained in the
third proposal. This was originated
by a. Lawrence Lowell, president of
Harvard University. 1t provides that
all great powers agree to use their
joint armed forces against any one
nation which shall refuse to submit
Its dispute TO arbitration or judicial
review. before going to war.
The entire platform of the league
Is summed up as follows:
ut Is proposed that the United
States join with other great powers
agreeing. a. before resorting TO
arms to submit all questions to an
international court, or Ter to coun-
ell OF conciliation. (3) In order 10
enforce such a general treaty of ar
bitration, il is proposed that the ma
tions agree 10 boycott any nation re-
fusing to keep its agreement in arbi-
trate. and If necessary. to undertake
joint military expedition against
1t as was done in the case of China
at the time OF the Boxer uprising.
f4) As means OF perfecting judicial
procedure in cases OF international
dispute. the adoption OF code of in
ternational law is proposed"
The contention OF the founders OF
this league is. that no nation would
be likely to refuse TO carry out its
agreement, In the face OF such n
threat as is contained in the third
proposal.
1t is not the plan of the league,
however, to provide for an enforce
ment OF the decree Of the court or
the council OF conciliation. A nation.
dissatisfied with the award, would be
at liberty TO reject 1t, and to declare
war; without any interference on the
part of the other sienatory powers.
