ECHOES FROM GLENWOOD

After reading of SO many people in
our town who have been cured by
Doan's Kidney Pills, the question ma
turally arises "Is this medicine equal.
ly successful in our neighboring
towns?" The generous statement of
this Glenwood resident leaves no
room for doubt on this point.
Mrs. H. H. Beal, Minnesota Ave,
Glenwood, Minn., says" 81 had kidney
trouble. I suffered from dull, nagging
backaches and pains across my loins
and was distressed by headaches and
dizzy spells. I couldn't rest we'll at

The Swedish Chamber. of Commerce
in New York, through its acting presi-
dent, Mr. John Aspengren, on Jan. 16
addressed a letter to President Will
son, thanking him for his note to
Great Britain and at the same time ex-
planning the conditions that have
given rise to British accusations
against Sweden as channel for Ger
man supplies. The letter states that
before the war there was only one di-
rect steamship connection, the Swed-
ish-Mexico line, which made infre-
quent sailings. Consequently Ameri-
can goods intended for Sweden were
to great extent shipped to Hamburg
or Hull and these goods were entered
on the list of exports to Germany or
to England instead Of the country OF
their ultimate destination. After the
war such transshipments have become
difficult and the Swedes have been
obliged to find means of getting their
goods directly from America, with the
natural result of swelling the list OF
exports of American goods to Sweden.
The letter also calls attention to the
fact that the Scandinavian countries
before the war received many supplies
from Germany and Russia, while they
are now obliged to import the same
goods from the United States. AS the
best proof that no re-export to Ger
many takes place Mr.. Aspengren
points to the indefinite stoppage of
the steamship line between Malmo

Swedish Chamber of Commerce. is to
be congratulated for doing it's share
toward killing this rumcr, says the
American Scandinavian Review,
which seems to have as many heads
as the hydra. The declaration of the
British government that American ex-
port trade to Scandinavia had be-
come abnormal in volume has, natur-
ally, been the object of much COM
ment in the three Scandinavian coun-
tries. Statistics are quoted to prove
that although the export from America
to Scandinavia has increased the to-
tai imports of Scandinavia has, on
the contrary, decreased somewhat.
Kammarherre Herluf Zahle, chief in
the foreign department of Denmark,
in newspaper interview mentioned
numerous picturesque stories of Sc
cret export to Germany which had
been investigated and found to lack
all foundation. The embargo Is en-
forced with great severity and it is
very unlikely that many offenders
slip through the hands of the govern
ment inspectors.

The mine-strewn waters of the
British channel and the North sea
continue to take their heavy toll OF
neutral vessels, often with great loss
of life. Another list of casualties
comes from the coast of Finland,
where the Germans have recently
laid mines with view of closing the
outlet for Russian trade in the Baltic
at the same time as the outlet at
Archangel is blocked by ice. No
warning was given, although it was
well known that neutral vessels were
plying in the very track of the mines
and before the danger could be dis
covered three Swedish ships were
blown up and between thirty and for
ty men killed. Swedish papers are
very bitter in their comments. 1t is
pointed out that these very vessels
had been instrumental in bringing
German refugees to their homes after
the outbreak of the war and that
Sweden throughout has shown Ger
many nothing but loyal friendship.

The great passenger ships running
to the north of Scotland have hither-
to escaped disaster from mines,
though they have been subjected to
the delay Of being searched at Kirk.
wall for contraband goods and for
German officers and reservists. The
Trondhjemsfjord, recently purchased
in England by the Norwegian-Amer-
lean line, consumed twenty days in
the trip from Hull to New York, as
the mines and the changing of ia
nliliar lights made it imperative to
go slowly by day and to lie still at
night. The declaration of lumber as
contraband of war is destroying one
cf the most important industries in
Norway and Sweden and working
havoc with Scandinavian shipping in
general Two Danish and five Nor
wegian ships which had been loaded
with pit props before these were de-
clared contraband, have been seized
by the German prize court in Kiel
and held as lawful prizes. Two bat
tleships under construction at Arm
strong's shipyard for the Norwegian
government have been seized by the
British government for compensation.
They have been renamed Botha and
Tipperary and the Norwegian papers
are, making melancholy jokes on the
appropriateness of the Irish song.

Morgenbladet (Norwegian) voices
what is the most prevalent note
throughout the entire Scandinavian
press when it says: "The gravity OF
the hour has taught the people of the
North that they have one another
has called forth into the light of day
the latent consciousness that the
three peoples are more closely ap'
piled than any other group of nations,
and has deepened the assurance in
Norway, as in Sweden and Denmark,
that the most vital interests of the
countries are those which they have
in common The hand which the
king of Sweden has stretched across
Kjolen and across the sound will be
warmly grasped, and the fact that he
has taken the initiative will be re.
membered."
