MERCER NOT MOLESTED,
GERMANS TELL VATICAN
Declare Cardinal Was Simply Asked
to Refrain From Incit-
ing Belgians.

ROME, January 8, PAS p.m..-The
German government has sent to the
Vatican an explanation of the Mercier
incident in which it says that there is
absolutely no truth in the report that
the cardinal ever was arrested by the
German authorities in Belgium. or even
confined to his own palace or prevented
from leaving it.
Continuing this explanation says:
The German authorities intruSted
with the most delicate and difficult
task of maintaining order in Belgium
and convincing the hostile population
of that country of their sincere desire
for their good. simply addressed to Car
dinal Mercier most deferential pray
er that he abstain from any attitude
which might make difficult the ac-
complishment of their duty. or ulti-
mately entail risk to the Belgian peo-
| ple.'
In following this course the Ger
mans. the explanation goes on, had in
mind the fulfillment of the Christmas
duty. which must be particularly
dear to a minister of the church, of
| avoiding the shedding of blood.
! ANY agitation or tumult arising
| from even an indirect cause" the Ger
| man communication says in conclu-
sion, will render necessary severe
| measures on the part of the troops for
| the restoration of order"

PUT STOMACH IN
fine CONDITION
Says Indigestion Results From
An Excess of Hydro
chloric Acid.

Undigested food delayed in the
stomach decays, or rather, fer
rnents, the same as food left in
the open air, says a noted author
ity. He also tells us that indi-
gestion is caused by Hyper-acidity,
meaning, there is an excess OF
hydrochloric acid in the stomach,
which prevents complete diges-
,tion and starts food fermentation.
Thus everything eaten sours in
the stomach much like garbage
sours i'll can, forming acrid
fluids and gases which initiate the
stomach like a toy balloon. Then
We feel heavy, lumpy misery in
the chest. We belch up gas, we
eructate sour food or have heart
burn. fiatulence. water-brash or
nausea.
He tells us to lay aside all dipes-
tive aids and instead get from any
pharmacy four ounces of lad
Salts and take tablespoonful in
Ia glass of water before breakfast
and drink while it is effervescing.
! and furthermore, to continue this
! for a week. While relief follows
the first dose, it is important to
ncutralize the acidity. remove the
} gas-making mass. start the liver,
stimulate the kidneys and thus
/ promote free flow of pure diges-
( tive juices.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, and is
made from the acid of grapes and
lemon juice, combined with lithia
and sodium phosphate. This
harmless salts is used by thou
sands of people for stomach trou-
bic with excellent results.

Hare had been SO positive that Buster
had not left the Green Forest they
searched again, and this time they
peeked into every place that they
thought Buster might have made a bed
In. 1t was of no use, no use at all.
Reddy and Old Granny Fox Joined in
the hunt. though they didn't tell any
one. They wouldn't have admitted that
they cared whether Buster Bear was
in the Green Forest or not, but they
did. and when they heard that Jumper
said that ne had gone to sleep for the
winter they straightway started out
to find out for themselves They
wouldn't own it for the world. but the
Bear. and they had kept away from
that part Of the Green Forest where
he made his home. If it was true that
he was asleep for the winter. or If he
had gone back to the Great Woods,
they would feel safe in hunting where
they pleased for the rest of the winter.
and SO they were quite as anxious as
any one else to find out the truth
about Buster Bear
So no one hunted for him any harder
than did Reddy and Granny Fox, and
as no one knows the Green Forest bet
ter than they do you may be very sure
that If any one could find him they
could. But they didn't find him or any
sign of him.
Perhaps he's gone up to the Old Pas
ture. said Reddy as they sat talking
the matter over.
81 don't believe he has," replied Gran
ny Fox. but 1t will do no harm to look
My opinion is that he has gone back
to the Great Woods. and all / can say
is good riddance. hope he'll never
come back. This idea that he may be
asleep for the winter Is all nonsense
He has gone away, that's what he has
done.'
And Reddy thought to himself, as he
trotted Off to the Old Pasture, that
Granny was right.

It's hard to believe what you can't see.
Anyway, it is easier to believe the
things you can see. That is just the
way that the little people of the Green
Forest felt in regard to Buster Bear.
When Prickly Porky the Porcupine and
Jumper the Hare, both of whom had
known Buster Bear in the Great Woods
before any of them had come to live
in the Green Forest, said that Buster
Bear had gone to sleep for the winter,
the other little people just couldn't
believe it, Not that they thought that
Prickly Porky and Jumper were telling
an untruth. No. indeed. But 1t did
seem to them that there must be
mistake. They knew, of course, that
Johnny Chuck sleeps all winter So
do Striped Chipmunk and Grandfather
Frog and Old Mr.. Toad and some
others. If they didn't they would
starve to death. because there is moth
ing for them to eat. Everybody knows
that. But what Buster Bear should
sleep all winter for was more than
Peter Rabbit and the others could un-
derstand. and somehow they couldn't
really believe that he did. 1t didn't
seem possible that any one so big and
strong could sleep like that.
So Peter Rabbit and Sammy Jay and
Blacky the Grow and Tommy Tit the
Chickadee and others who heard the
news just felt that they would have
to see with their own eyes Buster Bear
asleep before they could believe it. To
be sure none of them had seen Buster
! for some time, and that seemed very
strange. But as Sammy Jay said. he
| might have left the Green Forest and
| gone back to the Great Woods where
| he used to live. IT was easier to be-
| lieve this than it was that he was
| sleeping somewhere in the Green Fo-
rest.
| Then began the most persistent hunt
for Buster Bear that ever was. The
ground was covered with beautiful
white snow and no one could possibly
walk there without leaving tracks,
| not even such q little fellow as White

URGES US. TO GIVE MORE
FOR ROADS IN ALASKA
Col. Richardson Says Highways Are
Necessary Feeders to
Railway Lines.
Webster.

Further developments of AlaSka's sys-
TEN of roads and trails cannot be expect
ed unless Congress increases the allot-
ment of funds, declares Col William P.
Richardson, president of the Alaskan
board of road commissioners, in his an
nual report to the War Department. The
funds allotted, he says, are now entirely
consumed in repairing and maintaining
the existing roads.
Col. Richardson has submitted a plan
for the extension of the roads covering
a period of years with an estimate Of
s750,O00 for the first year and expresses
the hope that this plan may receive ia
vorable action before the opening of next
seasons work.
Roads Needed as Feeders.
While again disclaiming any intention
of antagonizing the projected railway
construction in Alaska. Col. Richardson
repeats the former statement of the
board that no rapid or general develop
ment in Alaska will follow the construc-
tion of trunk lines of railroads to the in
terror unless preceded or accompanied by
the construction of many wagon roads
and trails as feeders.
Regarding the bill now before Congress
to create a general development board
for Alaska, to open its resources, Col
Richardson declares that 'it is no egot-
ism to say that no other agency of the
government is more competent or better
equipped for such tasks than the army
and he points to the extensive public
work accomplished in Alaska in connec-
ton with the cable and telegraph system
and the roads and trails run through the
wilderness by the army to support his
statement.

GOES TO FRONT TO DIE;
RETURNS TO US. TO WE'D
Ohio Surgeon Summoned Home by
Girl Who Once Spurned
Suit.

NEW YORK, January S.-Harold Sloan.
a surgeon of Sandusky. Ohio. has re-
turned to America after serving at the
front in field hospitals under two flags
and after having been reported dead by
the British war Office. DR.. Sloan went
to the war because he was in love with
Miss Edith Lesher of Sandusky and she
refused to wed him. Now all is well
with the surgeon. and he is hurrying
home to be married
When the war started" said DR..
Sloan, Miss Lesher was staying with
friends at Trouville, France, where she
had intended to pass the summer. I
was in Sandusky, where her father is
in business. and when no replies came
from his daughter to his cable mes
sages he began to be anxious. August 4
Mr. Lesher was SO worried that he sent
me abroad to find Miss Edith and bring
her home.
Proposal Refused.
IT met her at the Hotel Savoy. in Lon
don. and escorted her around the city
for a week, and then proposed. She
not only declined my proposal. but i'm
piled that the voyage home would be
pleasanter if we sailed on different
ships.
"A ter that made up my mind that
would go to the front and hope for
bullet to end my misery, as / had moth
ing else to live for. Leaving London

which crossed the channel on August "a,

treat; then at the Aisne and in the en-
gagement before La Bassee. One morn
ing / was dressing the wounds of an
English artilleryman when a big shell
exploded close beside US, and then all
was oblivion.
"When 1 regained my senses I was ly-
ing on my back in a German field hos
pital inside La Bassee. 1t was the con-
cussion that knocked me out. After l
had been confined in the city hall for
three days without any food q German
assist him in caring fer the wounded
which 1 did cheerfully for fourteen days,
and was then passed through the lines
"On my arrival in London 1 discovered
that my name had been posted in the
official list Of killed at the war office
In answer to my cable message that
was alive and well 1 received a reply
which read:
THANK Heaven that you are saved
Come home to me-
1T was signed Edith and I am on
my way"
DR.. Sloan went on to say that the
British troops were splendid fighters in
the open and that one Tommy was equal
to four Germans, but they could not
stand the work in the trenches. Num-
bers of the English soldiers went crazy
and others succumbed to typhoid. which
was very prevalent as vaccination with
antt-toxin was optional, and the anti
vivisectionists opposed 1t and told the
soldiers it would injure them for life.
