ADVERTISEMENTS.
She Will
Recover


So her doctor said. Her
friends and neighbors felt
sure of it too. They have
used Peruna themselves
and know of its merits.
That old cough that had
worried her for years and
years, for which she had
taken all sorts of cough
medicines, has disappeared.
Peruna is doing the work.
She will recover. Indeed,
she has recovered.
Her name Is Mrs. william
Hohmann. 2764 Lincoln Ave.
Chicago, Ills. She had suffered
with catarrh Of the bronchial
tubes and had terrible cough
ever since a child. As she got
older she grew worse. She
coughed both winter and sum-
mer. Had to sit up at night.
Could not sleep. But all that
has left me now. Peruna has
cured me-"
There are others. and there
is q reason.

ORIGIN Of a Word.

The origin of ''windfall" in the sense
Of good luck dates back to the time of
William the Conqueror. 1t was then
a criminal offense to cut timber in the
forests. Only such could be gathered
as the wind had blown down; hence a
heavy windstorm was hailed by the
peasants as so much good luck. and
from this we get the term.

Aerial AssaiIants Made Escape

London.-Four German aeroplaaes
have flown several times over the city

as they went. Soldiers in the streets
fired on the machines and one Taube
seemed to be hit, but all got safely
away.
The official returns Of the casualties
show that fifteen persons were killed
and thirty-two wounded. The bombs
were filed with sllrapnel.
For half an hour the whole city
cracked with rife shots and bombs,
which threw up dense clouds of black
smoke. No sooner did one aeroplane
seem to depart than another arrived.
Buildings in all parts Of the city were
wrecked.
The first bomb fell on the fortifca.

ton and many others in different parts
of the town and in the suburb OF
Rosendaell and the districts Of Coude.

Protest With United States
Against Germany

man military authorities in Belgium
Of merchandise worth about $1,000
900 francs. He asserted that the Ger
man policy means "the ruin Of in
dustry In Belgium"
The protest set forth that the goods
were not taken for use Of Germany,
and that consequently the seizure was
in violation Of the fourth Hague con-
vention. The Belgian minister issued
this statement: "The German authori-
ties nave put into requisition against
a single receipt ana without mention
ing the value OF the same, the follow
ing merchandise, to be awarded to
Germany, and which belongs to pri-
vate parties: In Antwerp. cotton for
the value Of 100000 francs; rubber,

francs. In Duhel, nickel, 100000
francs. In Malines, canned goods, ST.

These measuers are in opposition
with the articles rs and So Of the
fourth convention Of The Hague, in ac-
cordance with which privase property
must be respected and requisition can
not be claimed otherwise than for
the needs Of the army of occupation.
These measures involve the ruin Of
the industry in Belgium.

VETO LlTERAcY TEST
President Wilson Is Ready To Veto
The Literaey Test Bill If Il
Is Passed

Washington.-When congress met
after the New Years holiday, the par
amount subject up for consideration
was the immigration bill pending in
the senate. Senate leaders purpose to
bring the measure to vote before the
adjournment and expect that it will
be passed with the literacy test re-
tained.
Strong indications came from the
White House that President Wilson
would veto the bill if passed in its
present form. President Taft vetoed
a similar measure in 1913, because Of
the literacy test. President Cleveland
also vetoed such a measure in 1893.
The senate passed the bill over the
veto, but the house motion to repass
failed. The bills champions predict
that 1t can be passed this time in both
houses over a veto. The vote of ~
to - in the senate against eliminating
the literacy test, which President VIII
son opposes, was generally accepted
as test vote

Providence, which rescued seventy
survivors who had escaped from the

fishing boats were close at hand. The
captain expresses the belief that other
survivors have been rescued and taken
to Dartmouth. He saw no other boats
belonging to the Formidable, however.
The destruction of the battleship in
the English channel by mine or sub
marine boat, although one of those
events Englishmen now realize must
be expected so long as the British
navy is compelled to keep the seas,
has caused widespread grief.
This is due, not so much to the loss
of the ship, which was fifteen years
old and cost about s5,000,0OO, as it is
for the men-600 in number-who are
believed to have gone down with her.
