WET BRAIN.

WET BRAIN.
DR.. w. A. Evans conducts an How
to Keep Well" department in Chicago
Tribune. The other day, under the
above caption. he devoted consider
able space to the drinkers brain.
The man." he said. who takes a
social drink should know Of a new
danger that lies in store for him. 1t
is wet brain. He has probably heard
that drink lowers the moral tone, that
it weakens resistance, that II he in
resist, that it makes his judgment
poor, and that. finally, he develops de-
lirium tremens. Delirium tremens was
the veil beyond which nothing lay.
Doctors Sceleth and Beifeld now
come forward with the warning that
beyond delirium tremens lies wet
brain, that only one man in four at
tackled by wet brain RECEIVERS. And
Doctors Sceleth and Beifeld ought to
know, for the former has beer physi-
clan t. the bridewell for many years
and he has cared for about $500
drunks a year during all Of that time.
A great many of these DRINKS have
had delirium tremens. Many Of them
have had wet brain. Most Of the wet
brain cases have died and autopsy has
been made on them. Every drink is a
mixed drink. There are no other
kinds. When a man takes drink,
however simple it may be, he mixes in
some degeneration Of his nerve cells.
some chance of delirium tremens, and
a few other ingredients. Let him I'M
derstand that he also pours into the

A GREAT LESSON.
Among the incalculable losses re-
sulting from this great war there
stands out prominently one benefit; it
has brought to all countries engaged
in it-and to others-a realization such
as they never had before of the rela-
ton between alcohol and efficiency.
Something, and perhaps much, of that
new knowledge is sure to remain af-
ter peace returns, for, of course, it is
not only with success in fighting that
strong drink interferes. or only in war
that men need to have all their wits
about them all the tme.-New York

CONSUMPTION OF ALCOHOL.
That the use of beer and wines does
not tend to decrease the consumption
of strong liquors. Is shown by Gabriel
son, Swedish statistician who has
published the results OF his re-
searches. The figures are for the Pc
riod 1906-1910.
France consumes more than three
times as much alcohol per capita as
the United States, due to its general
use of wine. Italy consumes nearly
three times as much, Spain twice as
much, Greece twice as much, Switzer-
land twice as much. Portugal nearly
twice as much. Belgium consumes
considerably more alcohol, although
1t Is one of the leading beer countries.
In Germany 40 per cent of the total
drink consumption is Of spirits. while
in the United States more than IS
per cent Of the total drink consumption
is beer, which seems to Indicate that
the Germans, despite their beer preju-
dices, use considerably more spirits
per capita than the United States.

 With the new loan the total amount of loans made by the peo- pie of the United States to the ententa allies is about $1,5O0,O 900, in addition to the great amounts of Ame:ican securities formerly held abroad which have been returned here and are now held ny American investors. We have also received since the war started something like S7OO,OOO,- 900 in gold from belligerent ooun- tries. The incoming gold, the amount of loans made to foreign counties and the amount of Am erican securities held abroad be- fore the war which have. since re turned to the United States, col lectively. just about square the trade balance of some four billions ct dollars in our favor, result ing from our sales of munitions Of war to the belligerents.-P. l.

SUBMARINE TOPIC AGAIN

Now that the election is out of the way, interest turns in this country to the question of Ger mlny's submarine warfare.
 There are three cases now pend ing before tn state department for considerations That Of the Marina ou her return voyage to the United srates and of course carrying no coutraband, whicn, it is claim lL. was sunk without warning, but 5n the case of which, at all events, no proper provision was made for the safety of the crew and passen- gers. win the result that four teen Americans lost their lives.
 The seCoud case is that of the steamship Arabia, sunk without wa~uIaz in the Mediterranean. Tw lives g lre lost aboard her, but no Amgricars, so our direct interest in this case is only that Ii involved L.stLc. breach by Germany of pledges made to the United States.
 The ,bjrd case, however, is one of dir=lt interest to this country. It is that cr the sinking, off the coast rI Span, of the American steamship Columbian, of the Am e-icau-Hawauan line. But the most msager details of this have been 9ermitted to reach the people of the United States. If the state deparrm-ut at Washington has more details, following it's policy of "D.t;,rss publicity" it wlthholds r1cm. Practically all that has been published in this country was sev- e~aI days since, while the re turns cf the election were being buIIeriua3. 10 the effect that wireless messag ges from this steamship were being received that shs was being fired on by a German submarine. The state department reports that before talk ing any steps-which, of course, means writing notes - it must be learned whether this American yes sel was trying to escape, whether she carried coutraband and whether she was fired OH without warning. Under tke construction of interna- tioual law before the present ad- miuistrattcn took office not one of th.3s three matters would war rant 9 belIgerent in sinking an American ship. But times change and American point change with tlem.-SeattIe p. I.

TIE LATEST LOAN

The uev British loan, to which tho Eastern banks invited contribu- t.oas, was noated here on terms more favorable than the previous lraus placed by the same power in this country. The interest rate $ relatively bign, at 514 per cent, but this is offset to some extent by the terms Of redemption, which permit Of the ,early retirement of the loan, should the British gov erumeUt desire to do so.
 It appears that the new loan has been taken freely. Indeed, the indications are that it has been overgubscrfted and that, in conse- queuce. while t was 'floated below par by q small fraction, the bonds will e shortly quoted at par or higher, .r
 One reason which particularly c,mmends this loan to American investors Is that 1t is based upon collateral security stocks and bonds formerly owned by British investors which, partially under compuislou, have been placed at the service of the British govern ment.

Arrived Here Fourteen Years Ago.


Last Saturday, June "a, marked
fourteen years since John Bohinger
left his native land in Regenburg,
Germany, and greeted the statue of
liberty in New York, and headed for
the best town this side of the big
pond he crossed. Although John
didn't come direct to DEBORAH he was
on his way. He accompanied fam
lily from Germany and saw them safe
ly located at Ivanhoe, near Elkader.
The time consumed in coming over
was five days, eighteen hours and
twenty-seven minutes, and outside of
that time John hasn't lost a minute
from the business world and the mat
ter of making living. He went to
Dubuque where he took his first po-
|sition, remaining there eight months,
and then came to DEBORAH and en-
tered the employ of Chas. Linkenheil,
remaining with him several years,
when he opened a butcher shop in
partnership with Frank Goltz on
West Water street, their present
quarters, and has since been cutting
off steaks and roasts for the hungry
folks, and we guess he is pretty well
satisfied with Uncle Sans domain.

Groves.

Sunday morning at 1882 o'clock
the angel of death claimed James o.
Groves at his home in this city. For
the past three years he had made a
valiant fight to regain his impaired
health, having been affected with
spinal trouble three years ago. Up to
within a couple OF weeks ago he was
apparently enjoying a return of good
health, but was stricken suddenly and
failed rapidly until his death. He
was born in DEBORAH on June 2, 1877
and was son OF Andrew and Juliette
(Christopher) Groves. He received
his early education in the Decorah
public schools and also attended
Luther College for three years. At
ter leaving college here he entered
Northwestern University at Chicago,
and graduated from that institution
as druggist in 1901. After his
graduation he returned to DEBORAH
and took a position in a drug store
here conducted by James Duncan,
where he remained for about six
months, when he went to Abilene,
Kansas, and took position in drug
store where he remained three years,
until 1904 when he went to Granada,
Mimi, where he managed a drug
store until 1906. He returned to De-
corah that year and took a position
as druggist with r. A. Engbretson,
remaining in that position six years
when he purchased the drug store in
1912 now conducted by John Schim-
ming, which he operated successfully
until his health began to fail and he
was compelled to sell out.
In September, 1905, he was united
in marriage to Miss Harriet Ryan at
CLAY Center, Kansas. Three children
were born to the union, two daugh-
tiers and one son, Eliza beth, Leonore
and Donald, who with the bereaved
wife and mother survive. He is also
survived by two sisters and one
brother, Mrs. w. Z. Teskey Gran
ada, Mimi; Mrs. Theo. Void, Mime
apolis and George, Chicago.
In the death Of Mr.. Groves the
community loses an excellent citizen.
He was young man who from the
beginning of his career had always
been deeply interested in the mater
ial, mental and moral welfare of TIE
community. For many years he was
member of the Decorah' band, and
was cornetist of much ability. For
several years past he had been the
director of the city band here and
brought this organization up to a
high standard, and his presence and
services will be greatly missed. In
his chosen profession of a druggist
he was an exceptionally competent
man and had bright future before
him. He will be greatly missed here
by friends, who have grown up from
childhood with him, and who admir-
ed him for his many sterling quail
ties of true manhood. The sympathy
lof all is extended to the bereaved
wife and children and sisters and
brother in their loss. The funeral
services will be held this Wednesday
AFTERNOON at $3.50 from the home
Rev. Van Buren,, of Upton, Iowa, q
former pastor of the NJ. E. church
in DEBORAH, officiating, who will be
assisted by DR.. G. S. Lakeland. Inter
ment will be in Phelps cemetery.
