How to Avoid Many
Childhood Ailments

"The care of the teeth should begin
as soon as the child has a tooth to be
cared for" says DR. Louise Allen Moore.
Usually this is left until the child
first complains of toothache. Few par
ents seem to realize that some OF the
more serious ailments of childhood are
directly due to such neglect. Unhealthy
teeth and inflamed gums are the best
places for germs to start. These null
tiply into millions in day and are
swallowed in such quantity that the
tender body cannot resist the attack.
Fever, chill stomach and intestinal dis
orders are common results.
When teeth first come through the

Musical connoisseurs in the large
cities of the United States have heard
Madame Schumann- Heink many times
but' she is perhaps, the only singer of
the first rank who is in constant de-
mand in the small towns as well as in
the large cities. After touring in this
country in concert for fourteen years,
her popularity seems greater than ever.
The singers bookings are far ahead of
previous seasons. Endowed with a re-
markable physique, careful about her
diet and living. the great artist has pre-
served her powers wonderfully. Her
singing has attained to the highest
technical perfection; however, there is
more exalted than vocal
technic about her singing-something
that grips and holds, and softens the
heart That explains why one meets
every sort of men and women at the
Schumann- -Heink concerts.

Death of Irish "RepubEc"
as Dramatic as Its Birth;
Rank and File Surrendering
BY .4sseeiatcd Press

Dublin, April 80. - Rebels of the
rank and file followed the example of
their leaders this morning and con-
tessed the cause of the Irish republic
was lost by laying down their arms at
the foot of the Parnell monument in
Sackville street and surrendering to
British troops. About $50 of them
who had fought since Monday in this
central area marched out from their
strongholds under the white flag and
gave themselves up. 4 few irrecon-
cllables continued sniping from lairs
difficult to locate on roofs or among
rafters of buildings near by.
Soon afterward a rebel lieutenant,
wearing a heather green uniform and
carrying white flag, came in with a
guard of ten men from the adjoining
county of Meath to learn the truth
about rumors of a general surrender.
The party marched off to the castle
and learned from ]. II. Pearce. who
was named provisional president of
the Irish republic, that the movement
had collapsed and was advised to re-
sist no longer. The lieutenant and his
escort then started out to parley with
the rebels in the country districts in
an effort to induce them to lay down
their arm.
Connolly Prisoner
James Connolly, one of the leaders
of the uprising, is said by government
officials to be a prisoner, wounded, in
the castle.
a correspondent of the Associated
Press visited the entire area of the
disturbance to-day. The desolation
and destruction showed how severe
was the fighting while it lasted. Any
effort to describe the ruined center
of the disturbance can give only a
general idea of the havoc, which, how
ever, looks more extensive than it
actually is, owing to the amount of
debris.
Passing down from headquarters
near the entrance to Phoenix Park. on
North Circular road, to the Four
Courts district, one found that every
window of the law courts had been
shattered. The rebels had held the
building in force for a week. Valuable
law reference books and furniture
were utilized to barricade windows.
Houses all around were dented with
bullet marks. Some of them were
barricaded with thick oaken- -planks-
which were marked with bullet holes.

ANAEMIC PEOPLE
Need More Iron in the Blood

If you are anaemic, you need more
iron in your blood. and the telltale
symptoms are a pale face, colorless
lips, ashen finger nails, poor circu-
lation and short breath, and more seri-
Gus diseases are easily contracted
when in this condition.
Mr.. w. II. Hodges. of Kansas City.
Mo-, says: 'T suffered from the effects
of bad blood. was rundown. dizzy,
had headaches and did not feel like
working. I had tried Beef, Iron and
Wine without any help. After taking
Vinol four days l noticed an improve
ment and its continued use built up
my blood and my bad feelings dis
appeared like magic"
The bad effects of poor, devitalized
blood cannot be overestimated, and
1t is the peptonate of iron and the
true cod liver extracts contained in
Vinol, together with beef peptone, that
enriches the blood, improves the cir
culation and in this natural manner
builds up health and strength. Try it
on our guarantee.

On Wine Tavern bridge there were
similar scenes.
Ample Provisions
This morning the streets were full
of curious persons who were glad to
have the opportunity to be about after
their long detention in their homes,
during which they were deprived of
food until the authorities made pro-
vision for them. The supplies thus
brought in were ample.
Down Cork Hill and King Edward
streets strong guards of troops are
still in evidence and every passer-by
Is challenged.
The city hall had been occupied for
several days by the rebels and even at
this time snipers in houses in the
vicinity were shooting at intervals.
Nearly 1000 Prisoners
AS the correspondent approached
the castle a party of more than 100
captured members of the Sim Fein
marched by under escort toward Rich
mond Jail, where more than 700 are
now held. Many of the men wore
green uniforms. Ono wore the uni
form of the Irish volunteers and others
were in civilian clothes. Numbers of
most of them held up their heads
defiantly.
The soldiers escorting them were
men who had fought all through the
uprising and were even more bitter
against their rebellious fellow-coun-
trymen than the troops brought over
from England. This feeling seems to
be shared by most of the population
of Dublin.

rebels entrenched themselves as soon
as the movement was begun on Mon
day, was almost deserted. Around
Trinity College and the old Irish par
lament quiet reigned. The officers
training corps, quartered in the col

uprising.
Great damage was done in Sackville

as Middle Abbey. Abbey Mary and
Henry streets. Only a few girders

Along the east side of Sack

Groups Surrender
General Maxwell. the British COM

O'Reilly was among the prisoners. He
also stated reports from the country
districts showed that everywhere quiet
was being restored and that the rebels
were coming in by groups to surrender,
especially at Ashbourne and Ennis
corthy.
Ehe fate of the prisoners is now in
the hands of the government, which
possesses very wide powers under mar
tial law. Snipers who remain recalci-
trant in all probability will be dealt
with very severely.
The Irish commandant, J. II. Pearce,
who is now a prisoner, is a school
master. He was wounded by shot in
the leg. Before being captured he
took most active part in the uprising
and was looked to as the head of the
movement.

hands of the rebels most of the week,
when retaken was found to have been
badly damaged by fire and shot

One man was caught in a chimney,

The casualties up to the present are
said to be numerous, although the
troops have not suffered as heavily as
might have been expected from the
character of the fighting.
