SAVE DES MONIES BABY
Haiseldcn Will Operate Upon De-
formed Infant Free of Charge.

Chicago. Ill. March 6.-The "Des
Moines Baby" is not q problem baby"
according to DIR. Haiselden, who re-
turned from Des Moines, Iowa. Sun
day. DIR. Haiselden said he failed to
find what he had expected when he
left Chicago to investigate another in
stance of malformation, which rumor
said was similar to the case of the
world-famed Bollinser baby.
Little Dorothy Cleve land is the re-
suit of prenatal influences" said the
doctor. Her mother was Improperly
housed and fed before her birth. But
it would be as criminal to let her die
if her life can be saved as it would
have been TO prolong the life of Baby
Bollinger.
''The whole trouble lay in hair lip
and a split palate, both of which can
be corrected by an operation. The
baby is exec ptionally bright mentally,
but terribly emaciated physically as a
result of the conditions under which II
was born. The operation will be per-
formed at the Methodist hospital with
out cost to the parents. Mr.. and Mrs.
Charles Cleveland, who cannot af-
ford it.
THAT is the real reason Mr. CIeve-
land asked that the taby be killed. He
is a laborer and cannot spend six or
seven hundred dollars for a hospital
bill When we can teach our poorer
classes something about eugenics and
even common cleanliness we will have
fewer problem babies"

MAN WITHOUT COUNTRY
Turned Back at Many Ports, He Lived
Two Years on Ships.

New York. March 6.-The travels of
Nathan Cohen. the man without Il
country, who for two years was car
ried back and forth between New
York and South American ports on
because he was refused
shelter, in either the United States or
Brazil, have ended and his body lies
buried in Hebrew cemetery in
State Island. He died in a santa ri am al
Greens Farms, Conn, last Friday and
his body was brought here for burial
yesterday.
Cohen's journeys of more than 3D.
600 miles up and down the Atlantic
ocean caused his fate to be likened to
that of the Wandering Jew" He was
born in the province of Kurland, Rus
gia. For number of years he was in
business in Brazil and accumulated
several thousand dollars. He came to
the United States, landing at Baltimore
three years ago Subsequently he
went to Jacksonville, Fla. where he
lost his little fortune and his wife lcf:
him. While searching for her in Bal
timore he became insane. Under the
immigration law he was ordered de-
ported, as he had become a public
charge within three years of his ar
rival in America.

DRINK HOT WATER
IF YOU DESIRE A
ROSY COMPLEXION
Says we can't help but look
better and feel better
after an inside bath.

To look ones best and fell ones best
is to enjoy an inside bath each morn
ing to flush from the system the pre-
vious days waste, sour lamentations
and poisonous toxins before it is alb
sorbed into the blood. Just as coal,
when it burns. leaves behind a certain
amount of incombustible material in
the form of ashes, so the food and
drink taken each day leave in the ali
mentary organs certain amount of
indigeStible material, which If not
eliminated. form toxins and poisons
which are then sucked into the blood
through the very ducts which are in
tended to suck in only nourishment to
sustain the body.
If you want to see the glow of
healthy bloom in your cheeks. to see
your skin get clearer and clearer, you
are told to drink every morning upon
arising, a glass of hot water with a
teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in
it. which is a harmless means of wash
ing the waste material and toxins
from the stomach, liver, kidneys and
bowels, thus cleansing, sweetening and
purifying the entire alimentary tract,
before putting more food into the
stomach.
Men and women with sallow SKINS

Just as soap and hot water cleanses,

PLEASES GERMANY, TOO
Senate's Vote Puzzles Berlin But Con-
fidence in Wilson Noted.
BY CARL w. ACKERMAN.

Berlin. March 6.-The senate's vote
of confidence in President Wilson last
Friday has lessened the possibility of
German American break, well in
formed Americans. who have can
vassed the situation thoroughly, re-
ported today.
Officials and the public are some
what puzzled at the exact meaning of
the senates vote. But the general
opinion is that it strengthens the
hands of those who. though desiring
a most vigorous submarine warfare,
do not want to take any chances of a
break with America.
The newspapers differed widely in
their Interpretation of the senate's ac-
ton. For the most part, they agreed
that the senate seemingly voted to
keep hands off the German-American
controversy, excepting in a case likely
to result in war.
The Tageblatt, for instance believes
that the senate registered a clear de-
cision not to interfere with President
Wilson in his dealings with foreign
powers.
This was a natural result when
President Wilson made the question
one of national honor, said the Tage-
blatt.

TOO GREAT PRICE
Rev. Robert Gordon Speaks
Wisely on "Peace."
Neutrality Is in Danger of
Becoming COwardice."

The real sentiment in Kansas, fav
oring adequate preparedness, despite
certain newspaper reports to the con-
trary, was brought out clearly in
sermon last night at the First Baptist
church when Rev. Robert Gordon gave
the first of a series of three sermons
on this vital subject. He said in part:
There are some who in the spirit
of Nietzche declare efforts directed
toward the abolition of war immoral
and unworthy of the human race! But
the great mass of our people are pro-
foundly DESTROYS of peace. We know
what war means. 1t is all that in nor
NAL times we consider unspeakable
disaster
But there are some things we de-
sire even more than peace. 1t is pos
sible to pay too great a price for peace.
Certainly the man who is willing to
part with principles wins no praise
from us. We admire the sort of char
acter represented by those merchants
who belonged to Henry Ward Beech
er's church. Some good customers in
the south wired. If you do not stop
your preacher from preaching against
slavery, we will stop buying your
goods Straightway this answer went
back. We have merchandise for sale;
not principles
Everywhere the Scriptures put en-
phasis upon justice. There can be no
peace worth while without that. Paul
asserts the kingdom of God is right
eousness, peace and joy That order
cannot be reversed. only as nations
| learn to deal honestly with each other
can we hope for enduring peace.
Hitherto diplomacy has been dia-
bolical. The enlightened have taken
advantage of the benighted. The
strong have crushed the weak. The
rich have defrauded the poor. We
have operated under a double stand
] n rd F7a
| for individuals to covet. steal and kill.
But nations have violated all these
laws and glorid n their violation. If
it is wrong for one man to steal a
horse, it is wrong for a million men
to unite in stealing Il horse.
Believing this we must hold our
government to the most scruulous care
! in all it's dealings with other peoples.
But more than that, we cannot wor-
ship the God of Justice and be I'M
mindful when He is offended by in
justice anywhere. 1 have no desire to
see war with any people.
q believe in neutrality; that is if
neutrality means keeping an impartial
mind and refusing I'd be swayed from
right judgments by mere emotion.
But if neutrality means refusal to ex-
ercise our moral sense, then | pray
the good Lord may deliver us from
that. You cannot chloroform con-
science and retain manhood We are
able to arrive at a conclusion regard
ing the right or wrong of what is going
on and we are under obligation to
humanity to do so. The moral ver-
dict of this great republic will nightly
stimulate any people standing for what
we declare to be right. Our con-
domination will have no slight effect
upon the mightiest cation on the
globe. Our neutrality is in danger OF
becoming cowardice.'

subjects, America in Danger" and
