Remedy Prescribed Al
By Many Doctors
COMPOUND OF SIMPLE LAXA-
TIVE HERBS PROVES MOST
EFFICIENT.

DIR. w. A. Evans, writing for the
Chicago Tribune, makes the asser-
ton that practically everyone, at
some time or other, suffers from con-
situation. This applies regardless of
age or condition in life.
The congestion of stomach waste
in the bowels is evidenced in various
ways; bloat, eructation of foul stom-
ach gases, sick headache, languor, all
indicate constipation, and call for
prompt attention, not only to re-
lieve the present discomfort but al
so to avoid possible disease that fol-
lows neglect of this important func-
ton.
Harsh cathartics and violent pur-
gatives should not be employed, as
these afford only temporary relief,
while they serve to shock the entire
system. A mild laxative such as DR..
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is far pre-
ferable and is now the remedy gen.
orally used and prescribed by many
doctors. 1t is free from opiates or
narcotic drugs, acts easily and
pleasantly, without gripping or 9th

Three Measures to Be Considered by

Three Big Measures Ready.
While the interstate commerce com

ready for immediate consideration.
They are the District of Columbia pro-
hibition bill, immigration bill and cor

Corrupt practices legislation, now
the unfinished business, probably will
be displaced temporarily by the immi.
grafton bill when the Senate meets in.
asmuch as Democratic leaders are con-

before pressing it for final action.

district of Columbia by the Senate be-
fore the March adjournment is re-
garded as very probable.

Here the Teutonic Allies, according to
Berlin, are still making progress

RUMORS THAT UNITED STATES
rs PLANNING MEDIATION OFFER
EM5ARRASS ADMINisTRA-
TON, OFFICIALS SAY.
CALCULATE TO DESTROY
CHANCES FOR ENDING WAR
Report That Gerard Is Returning TO
Germany With Peace Proposals from
President Is Declared to Be Not
Only False But Actually
Dangerous.

Washington, Dec. IL. - Offers OF
the European nations have not been
made by the United States; they arc
not now being borne across seas by
Ambassador Gerard, and they will not
be preached by this government in
the near future unless there is a very
unexpected turn In world events
These facts are stated authoritative
ly by one of the highest officials of the
government TO counteract contrary re-
ports which have been generally pub
lished much to the embarrassment of
the administration and to the mis-
leading of foreign nations.
Destroy Chances of Peace.
In official circles it is felt that the
increasing and apparently authorita-
tive rumors that the United States is
planning some move for peace are
calculated above all else to destroy
chances of peace and, no matter what
their origin, TO defeat their own ends.
Indeed the misunderstanding has be-
come SO serious that an official de-
MIA has been contemplated.
The President, however has pre-
ferred to ~dissociate himself entirely
from any such announcement no mat
ter how made, In order that he might
stand untrammeled on his original Of
fer OF mediation at the beginning of
the war.
Germany Ready for Peace.
Two cardinal facts stand out In the
minds of officials. First, that many
such proposals originate in German
circles. and. second, that their reitera-
ton has been driving Allied states
men to an extremity of refutation
from which 1t would be embarrassing
for them to recede.
Without In any way passing on the
ultimate outcome of the war II Is felt
here that Germany has largely achiev-
ed her detectives and that she Is in a
position to treat on the basis of her
present gains without subjectimg her.
self to the inevitable losses of men
and money caused by further HOSTILE
ties.
Regard Mediation as UnfrisndIy.
The Allies. on the other hand, have
shown that they are absolutely OPP
posed to peace now. They have left
not the least doubt that they would
regard mediation at this time as I'M
friendly. 1t is firmly believed here
In official circles that such an attempt
by this government would subject the
United States to the charge OF parti-
san interference in the war.
Most embarrassing of all the ru.
mors perhaps is the constant reitera-
ton that Ambassador Gerard Is re-
turning to Germany with peace pro.
posals from the President. This is de-
clared, not only to be false, but to
be actually dangerous. 1t is said to
have created a very unfortunate feel
ing IN both belligerent groups; a feel
Ing Of intense irritation among the
Allies and Of %unfounded hopefulness
among the German people, who appear
to be well satisfied with the wars re-
suits and eager for its end.

DEPORTATION OF BELGIANS

Washington, Dec. 1.-THE American
governments formal protest to Ger
many against the deportation of Bel
gians for forced labor as a violation
of the principles Of humanity, has teen

Text of Formal Protest.
Americas formal protest follows:
"On November 20, Mr.. Grew, our
charge at Berlin, was directed to OBJ
tain an interview with the German
chancellor and read to him the follow
ing:
THE government of the United
States has learned with the greatest
concern and regret of the policy OF the
German government to deport from
Belgium a portion of the civilian popu-
lation for the purpose of forcing them
to labor in Germany and Is constrain-
ed to protest in a friendly spirit but
most solemnly against this action
which in c~ontravention of all prece-
dents and of those humane principles
of international practice which have
been long accepted and followed by
civilized nations in their treatment of
noncombatants.
Furthermore. the government of
the United States Is convinced that
the effect of this policy, II pursued,
will in all probability be fatal to the
Belgian relief work. so humanely
planned and so successfully carried
out, a result which would be generally
deplored and which, it is assumed,
would seriously embarrass the German
government"
