Thir Sounds Better.

From the Chicago Herald.
After denying to the New York World
that he had any knowledge of or connec-
ton with a pro-German lobby at Wash
ington to influence congress against the
president, Henry Weissmann. head Of the
New York State German-American alli-
ance, made some refreshing n signif-
cart statements.
II tell you frankly said Mr.. Weiss
mann, I'VE German sympathizers have
made mistakes since this war began which
have instilled a hatred of Germans here
1t will take years to eradicate. / say now
that 1t has been largely our fault-our
own methods.
Mr.. Weissmann went even further. He
| said that the charges made against the
German -propagandists In the Worlds ex-
nosure of last summer were largely true.
! and Boy-Ed n Won Papen vas true.
IOther pr~opagandists got money from
| them, but i did not"
Mr.. Weissmann declined to express an
opinion on Speaker Clark's presidential
boom. He said that nothing he could say
at this time would be likely to help him.
on the contrary, 1t would tend to hurt
Y The speakers ance
This sounds a good deal better than the
sort of statements we ave heretofore
been accustomed to from pro-German
sources. 1t shows a saner and sobeter ap-
/ preciation OF the actual rituat,9n. Mr.
IWeissmann deserves credit for his FRANK
confession OF errors.

ach, liver, kidneys and bowels the pre-
vious days accumulation of toxins and
poisons; thus, cleansing, sweetening,
and fr%eshening the entire alimentary
canal, each morning, before putting
more food into the stomach.
A quarter pound of limestone phos-
phate costs very little at the drug
store but is sufficient to make any
rheumatic or lumbago sufferer an en-
thusiast on the morning inside bath.
Millions of people keep their joints
free from these rheumatic acids by
practicing this daily internal santa
ton. A glass of hot water with a tea
spoonful OF limestone phosphate, drank
before breakfast, is wonderfully inyig-
Grating; besides, it is an excellent
health measure because it ~cleanses the
alimentary organs Of adj the waste,
gases and sour lamentations, making
one look and feel clean, sweet and
fresh all day.
Those who try this for one wedk
may find themselves free from sick
headaches, constipation, bilious at
tacks, sallowness, nasty breath and
stomach acidity.

tericai amusement Of the choir. The
music teacher had been helping the
tenors through with their part in the
anthem. The word tenor" is the same
in both languages. Then she wanted
to nave the basses try their part in a
similar way. Although she was not
quite sure about the wore for bass"
she took a nance on it and added the
final .o.i' Now 1t happens that the word
in Spanish which is pronounced like
