BANKRUPT NERVES
Each of us has a certain supply of n.

Each of us has certain supply of ner- vous energy. Every act, even every thought, uses up some part of this en- ergy. During rest and sleep the supply is increased by the blood which gets the needed elements from the air we breathe and the food we eat.
 Your nervous energy is like bank &C., count. If you use it up faster than you add to it you overdraw your account. Neurasthenia is the name given to ner- vous bankruptcy. It means that thc power to recuperate is gone
 The blood can be built up so that 1t will increase the supply of needed ele- ments to the wasted nerves and this is the only way that the nerves can be reached. Dr. Williams Pink Pills are a tonic that especially builds up the nerves because they supply to the blood the ele- ments that the nerves need. Many ner- vous disorders, sometimes chronic ones, have yielded to this tonic treatment with Dr. Williams Pink Pills when other methods failed to give relief. They are certainly worthy of trial in every case oi weak nerves and thin blood.
 Dr. Williams Pink Pills are sold by druggists everywhere or will be sent by mail postpaid on receipt of price, 50 Ocents per box, six boxes $2.50 by the Dr. Viii Hams Medicine Co.,, Schenectady, N. Y. Write today for free book on the nerves.

NAVAL DISTRICTS
 TO BE ORGANIZED
For Aid to Intelligence Bureau in
 War or Peace Times

Washington, Oct. 22.-Organization of the naval districts of the United States and the insular possessions to aid the bureau of naval intelligence in gathering information that will be of use to the department in war or peace times is included in plans upon which officers of the navy department are at work. There are thirteen of the dis tricts in addition to those at Hono- lulu, Manila and Panama, each under the supervision of the commandant of navy yard in that region.
 It is proposed to make this or ganization active in registering all American vessels that might be of use in war times, including power boats and motor launches, to organize by these districts the various radio sta- tions, public and private, as long distance eavesdroppers to listen in" on any wireless conversation at sea off the coasts and also to make the proposed navy training camps cor respond to the district organization.
 Registry By Number.
 A proposal has been made and pro- bably will be presented to congress this winter, that all pleasure power boats be required to carry registry by number in order that close track may be kept on them.
 The boats would have considerable value as aides to the great fleet of coast defense submarines it is pro- posed to build up within five years. The underwater fighters will be dis tributed along the coasts at submarine bases and at the various harbors. Six bases, including that at New London, Conn.,. are contemplated. With near ly 150 submarines in commission, an enemy fleet would have difficult time reaching the coasts The first scout ing line to locate such fleet would be the destroyers and acouts ships of the navy, working far at sea. Be- hind these would be the navy reserve craft and a swarm of swift power boats patrolling every foot of sea off the coasts. From these would come word to the submarine bases in case the enemy slipped through the first line and the submersibles would rush to the threatened spot. & formidable obstacle for the enemy ships to meet. With such system in working order, not a ship could move within hund- red miles of either coast but that it's course would be reported and the news flashed along the line to the waiting submarines.

 In addition to this work, the naval districts would report to the intelli-

German Gunners Defy
Death and Win Praise
From Russian Troops

Petrograd, Russia, Feb. 6.-Tribute Is
paid to the German artilerymen in an
account Of a minor incident during the
fighting west of Warsaw.
THE Russians were on the defensive,
with the Germans opening up a wide
attack on their positions. A German
battery Of six guns was moved out into
the open field to shell the Russian
trenches.
Very coolly the German artillery
men went about their work, although
they must have known that we would
soon make it hot for them. Our OBJ
servers soon got their range and the
third shell fired from our batteries on
the left destroyed three Of the German
guns, killing fully half of the entire
German force of artillerymen. The 9th
ers sought shelter, but quickly returned
and brought the remaining three guns
into action against our trenches again.
They had only time to fire two
rounds when another shell from our
battery smashed two more guns, de-
stroying their crews.
But those artillerymen had been
given their orders, and their bravery
was dauntless. The survivors, after a.
short interval returned to their single
remaining gun, and kept it going until
another Russian shell laid it low"

St. Quentin, in War Zone
Heart, Untouched by Shell

Paris, France, Feb. 6.-St Quentin
where the British troops made a stand
that retarded the German advance and
facilitated JOffre's strategic retreat
has been for nearly five months within
constant sound of the guns pounding
at each other along the line from ROye
to Peronne, but according to news re-
ceived by underground channels, the
town has otherwise experienced little
Of the rigors Of war.
Never has the city hall square been
so animated. The coming and going OF
motor cars filled with officers is inces-
SAINT as this is the headquarters Of some
of the big guns of the German army
who are comfortably lodged in the ele-
giant villas of the Champs Elysees.
Every afternoon officers crowd the
pastry cooks establishments of which
the animation rivals the most popular
o'clock teas of Paris. Enormous guam
titles of tea, chocolate and cakes are
requisitione6 daily and among the hab-
tues none have a better appetite than
prince August William, the emperor
fourth son, who is always the center Of
the most animated group.
The emperor himself made a short
visit to st. Quentin, lodging at the
Hotel Charles Basquin on the Champs
Elysees.
The bank Lecuyer -Lourinais, the Car
der asylum. the Farvacques palace, the
Henri Martin Lyceum and the Girls
Lyceum are constantly filled with Ger
man wounded who are sent to hospitals
further in the rear as fast as their con-
dition permits.

War Disorganizes Courts
in France; Most Litigants
Are at the Front or Killed

Paris France, Feb. 6.-Legal proceed
ure in France has been disorganized by
the war. Lawyers and witnesses IN
many civil suits are at the front; many
Of them have fallen in battle and no
one can now anticipate the extent to
which cases may be confused by the
disappearance of parties as well as wit
nesses and attorneys.
Maitre Chenu, the eloquent attorney
for the Calmette family in the Caillaux
case, and former chief of the order Of
advocates of the Partisan bar, says that
death certificates are such an essential
element in all legal procedure concern
ing inheritances, and there have been
already, and viii be so many more, IN
known dead, that the number Of prob
able estates is incalculable."
For the moment" Maitre Chenu
adds, judicial life in France is almost
entirely interrupted and viii continue
to languish nutil the end of hostilities.
We don't regret it. Legal quarrels
should seem to US to be an attack upon
the sacred pact of union that the war
has sealed between all citizens OF
France"
The business of, civil courts is almost
entirely confined to the sequestration
of the property of German and Aus
trian subjects and the list, already
long, grows every day, showing that
the number established in business in
France was far underestimated. In
stead Of the 10000 sequestratiOns an
ticipated, the number may reach nearer

German soldiers had given them bread,
soup and SOME meat.
While talking to the women heard
the faint cry of a baby and in looking
around I discovered in one of the cor
ners young mother holding a six
months old child to her breast. in
quired whether the child was sick and
the mother told me it was starving. It
had not had any milk for two days.
1t seems the women had told our SOL
diers about the baby, but they had not
understood what was wanted. Then I
remembered we had kept the COW we
found two days ago in our barn. So
we went for the COW.
"One of my men volunteered to milk
and got busy. But there was no milk.
I ordered another soldier to milk, but
the result was the same negative. The
idea struck me that where so many sol
diers wanted milk for their coffee the
cow might have been MIXED dry. So 1
placed a guard in front Of the cow s
stall and ordered him to let no one come
near the animal
Three hours later we tried again
and were OverjOyed when we obtained
pitcher full of milk. Immediately we
made haste for the cellar where the
baby was still crying. 1t did not cry
very much longer.
THE women were prOfuse in their
thanks and one of my men who carried
the pitcher scolded them for making so
much noise. He was mad because some
tears were rolling down his cheeks. He
himself is a father of several small
children"

England Destroys German
Wireless Connection With
East African Colonies

London, Eng, Feb 6.-The Wireless
World has received from Berlin a copy
Of a cOmmunique recently published by
the German colonial office, describing
the serious loss suffered by Germany
through the destruction OF her chain
OF wireless stations The communicate
''Soon after the outbreak OF war al
communication with the colonies by sea
was broken. and all German trans
marine cables were cut By the English
so that even telegraphic commuuica-
tiOn with the whole OF our colonies was
rendered impossible. The only remain
ing means of communication was Wir8-
less telegraphy, but the first warlika
measures OF the English were directed
to depriving as OF this means also. On
August u fell the wireless station zap,
and soon afterwards the station Naru-
Tasigata Samoa fell on Aug. 20, and
Bitapalza, in New Pomerania, on Sept,
u. During the night Of Aug. "A the
great station of Kamina, in Togo. had
to be destroyed by US in order to pre-
vent it's capture.
$50 vanished all possibility Of further
direct communication with the African
protectOrates. which hitherto had been
able to communicate by way OF Ka-
nina As a matter Of fact. there had
been from the very beginning a dis
turbance of the system which prevented
US from receiving any reports from the
governor of East Africa after the out
break OF war. And so the material
which we have here collected, and
which, in the main, reached Berlin by
circuitOus routes and very late, and is
mostly derived from private letters or
from enemy newspapers, must neces-
sarily remain fragmentary, and some of
it must also be regarded as uutrust-
worthy"
