How Catarrh is Contracted.

Mothers are sometimes so thought
less as to neglect the colds which their
children contract. The inflammation
of the mucous membrane, at first
acute, becomes chronic, and the child
has chronic catarrh, disease that is
seldom cured and that may prove a
life's burden. Many persons who have
this loathsome disease will remem-
Der having had frequent colds at the
time it was contracted. A little fore
thought, a bottle of Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy judiciously used, and
all this trouble might have been
avoided. Obtainable everywhere. :

Then ESCORTED TO HOTELS
Slim Reception for Ford Party
at Copenhagen.
Warned by Officers Not to Hold
Public Meeting.
BY CHARLES p. STEWART.
(Written for the State Journal)

Copenhagen, Jan. 1.-The Ford
peace party had some anxious mo-
ments last night. For several hours
the delegates were virtually prisoners
guarded by the police to prevent them
from becoming objects of attack by
New Years eve merrymakers in the
streets.
The delegates were invited to at
tend a banquet in the Royal Shooting
club. They promised United States
Minister Egan they would not leave
while the banquet was in progress. For
three hours the entire delegation was
'interned" and when the banquet was
over they were escorted to their hotels
by the police.
Governor Hanna, of North Dakota,
who was seriously ill in a hospital
here, is better, it was learned today
The Rev. Charles F. Aked, of San
Francisco, remained in Stockholm, on
the verge of a nervous collapse. Many
of the delegates are suffering from
severe colds
Only twenty-three persons greeted
the delegates upon their arrival here
yesterday. There was no formal re-
ception. Madam Schwimmer, who pre-
ceded the party to Copenhagen to
make arrangements, was awaited at
her hotel last night and warned by
the police that she would not be per
mit>~d to arrange for public meetings
Business Manager Plaintiff frightened
the reins a little more on delegates ex-
penses on the party's arrival here. He
ordered the peace pilgrims to carry
their own baggage. At Christia mia
and Stockholm their baggage was car
ried to the hotels at Henry Ford's ex-
pense.

Professor Strauss, the German special
ist who attended the king during the
summer, accompanied by Professor

late today to perform the operation.
1t was stated officially that the op-
Grafton will be only -'of a minor ma
ture" and that the king will be able to
be out of doors in a short time.
A fortnight ago it was rumored that
King Constantine had been i'll and
would be unable to participate in pub
lie affairs for many weeks. No con-
firmation was obtainable at that
time. The king only recovered a few
months ago from a serious illness that
threatened death last summer.
Amsterdam, Jan. Private ad-
vices from Berlin today repeated the
disquieting reports about the kaiser's
health and said that he was still suf-
fering from a number of malignant
boils Efforts to obtain an authorita-
tive statement from Berlin met with
failure.

address to the army, the navy and the

a superior number of enemies have
stormed our lines they have failed
before your loyalty and bravery
Wherever l have sent you into battle
you have gained a glorious victory
Thankfully we remember TODAY

gave their blood in order to gain
security for our beloved at home and
1mperishable glory for the fatherland
What they have begun we shall ac-
complish with Gods gracious help.
In lmpotent madness enemies
from the west and east from the
north and south still seek to deprive
US of all that makes life worth living.
They long ago buried the hope to
conquer US in honest fighting On
the weight of their masses. on the
starvation of our entire people, on the
influence of their campaign of cal
umniation which is as mischievous as
it is malicious, they believe they ca n
still reckon. Their plans will not
succeed Before the spirit OF deter
n1nation which unites the army and
those at home. their hopes will be
miserably disappointed
with a viii to discharge the duty
to the fatherland to the last breath
and determination to secure victory.

the protection of the fatherland and
