GETIT F|RST-NOT LAST

When cold grips your system 1t IS convincing proof that your condition is weakened-remember that. Itis risky indeed to simply trust your strength to throw it off, because neglected colds have brought more serious sickness than any other one thing, while weak eningcathartics and stimulatingsyrups are often depressing and dangerous.
 The one best treatment for any cold the one so often relied on when others fail, sthe powerful blood-nourishment in Scott's Emulsion, which feeds the very sources of bodily strength to SUD- press the present cold and generate strength to thwart further sickness.
 Get Scott's first, not last-and insist on the genuine-always free from all cohol and injurious drugs.

WILL HARVEST 6.OOO TONS.

Unless a storm sets in the last of the municipal ice crop will be housed by tomorrow evening. The ice is foot thick and is declared to be of eX- cellent quality. Close to 5000 tons will be harvested and as practically every other ice house within miles around has been filled it is safe to say that the last fear of an ice famine has vanished. The city will sell ice to contractors with the understanding that it is to be retailed at not over 30 cents a hundred. The house at Shuttle Meadow is divided into six compartments and will probably be sold a section at a time to different dealers. Mayor Quigley, who visited the ice house yesterday and watched the harvesting, is jubilant over the progress made and feels that the suc-
 cess has justified all that he has said or done. in connection with the municipal project.

PREPAREDNESS VIEWS
 OF GEO. WASHINGTON
Extracts From Papers of Father Of His Country Read at Patriotic Gathering.

Washington, Feb. 22.-George Washington's birthday was generally observed in the national capital to- day. President Wilson and other high government officials paid tri butes to the memory of the continen- tai leaders.
 The day was virtually a holiday here, with all the executive depart ments of the government closed. most of them all day and some after noon.
 The chief celebration was that held at Continental Memorial hall under the auspices of various patriotic so- cieties, in which the president, Secf9- taries Lansing and Daniels, ana French Am bassador JuSserand LOOK part.

pregnable-which the military au- thorities claim they are.
 Nature Aids Teutons.
 This impression is heightened by the fact that the swamps. from two to ten miles wide. in the region of Pinsk have not once been frozen over entirely during the winter. In fact. the mild weather with the resultant open swamp land between the Ger man and Russian lines. has made eN- traordinary Notifications unnecessary thus far. Probably nowhere on any front is the term stationary war fare" more applicable than in Pinsk district, where lonely outposts in
 block houses erected on tiny islards in the swamp lands and rowing pa- trols get the only real touch of fight ing.
 The German lines at Pinsk pro- trude farthest east of any along the whole front from the Baltic to Galicia. They project in a semi oval form. The greatest danger to the forces at Pinsk, therefore is tlanking movement from the north the swamps afford protection from the south. Tn consequence, the northern lines have been made ex- tremely strong. Not only is every yard of this front fenced in with en- tanglements 100 to 12O feet wide, but there are supporting\points at very short intervals which are veritable Actresses in themselves. They are surrounded by star-shaped barricades Of wire.
 Each of these supporting points is sub-divided into barricaded sections, ,l,o machine guns to fire along both sides Of each ~oint of the stars.
 As a al precaution, each support ing point is surrounded by a single wire, stretched knee high, on which hang ten pairs of empty bottles, which clink the alarm the moment the wire is touched.
 Nobles Living in Ground.
 A noval feature of the German de- fense in this section is that the troops are composed almost entirely of crack cavalry regiments, numbering high nobles among their officers. A short time ago they would have sCoffed at the idea of being dis mounted, but now they live cheerfully n part or wholly underground, rid ing their horses only for sport in inn rrovised hippodromes.
 The lot of the troops on this northern flank of the front, however, is happier than that of those on the east and south of Pinsk, for they have to entrench themselves in the dunes burdering the swamps, while in the other sections it has been i necessary to%construct a large part of ] he defenses almost in the water it. i elf, or at the best on marshy land. 1 aralleling the Strumen river. south l 'f the city, runs a narrow dike built | " the Russians, either to hold back | he flood waters or to serve as the | 'ed for a projected railroad. This | like is but a few feet above the fast l unnlng river on one side and the l asst swamp on the other and has 2een converted into a series of tiny l orts, with machine guns commanding | very Russian position in the wide 1 trgle.

Nswlands on His Party,s Blunders.

Senator Newlands OF Nevada has just held
the mirror up to the democratic donkey to let
the beast see Just how long his ears have grown
since Presidents Wilson took office. No repub-
lican opponent Of the administration has so mer-
cilessly dissected Mr. Wilson's policies, the
effect of the democrats at reformatory legsla-
ton Senator Newlands carefully and keenly
crticzes every act of his party in power, its ad-
minstrative incompetence, its legislative blum.
ders and it's general and total failure to redeem
its promises That the party not swept
from power at the election in 1914 he ascribes
to the fortuitous advent OF the European war.
The Underwood tariff bill did not, according
to the senator, accomplish the reforms sought
but brought with It disaster and distrust, 1.-The
result not OF a malicious effort of the manufac.
turers to teach the country a lesson. but of the
caution and timidity" that natural Sc
quence OF the adoption of the democratic idea
OF free trade and its enactment into law Bank
ing legislation had even worse effects. Instead
OF being non-partisan. 1t is partisan, the reserve
board Is tied to department and under its con-
troll excess capital was exacted from the men,
Der banks. and the reserve associations are or
ganzed into profit-making institutions. some
thing entirely foreign to the original purpose
OF the bill. Additional legislation must be had
to make the law meet the requirements,
other failures OF the party's program were
referred TO by the senator, whose disclosures Of
the administrations shortcomings is especially
important just now, when the leaders OF the
party are trying to divert attention from their
mistakes by the ancient subterfuge of getting the
people interested in something else Just before
election. The democrats will be tried on their
record, which is bad.
