MRS. LUCY L. W. WILSON
ON SCIENTIFIC MISSION
IN NEW MEXICO DESERT
Daring Work Undertaken by
Head of Girls High School
Downtown-Conducts In
dian Excavations
MANY HARDsH1Ps BRAvED

Mrs. Lucy L. w. Wilson. principal of the
South Philadelphia High School for Girls,
is I'm New Mexico to conduct excavations
at Otowi and reveal the secrets of the race
which inhabited the country a thousand
years before the arrival Of the Spaniards
with Mcxicans surrounding her on all
sides, her assistants full-blooded Indians and
no white men in the vicinity, Mrs Wilson
has undertaken what her friends say is one
Of the most daring expeditions ever at
temped by woman.
The nearest Indian village to the centre
of her activities is IL miles away. To reach
that village she will have to traverse almost
impossible country, and the nearest water
supply is four miles from her camp.
Mrs. Wilson will continue her scientific
work, begun there in 1914 when she made
important discoveries relating to the history
Of the Pueblo and cliff.dwelling Indians
The benefit Of her search will accrue to the
Commercial Museum, of which her husband,
Dr. w. J.. Wilson, Is curator.
The expedition has the sanction of the
United states Government but whatever
she finds will be given to the Museum In
1915 a survey Of the country covering six
acres, was made as a preliminary to Mrs.
Wilson'S present undertaking.
Mrs. Wilson is living in a tent. She is
n robust woman, used to the hardships of
such a life. She has built a ditch around
her dwelling TO prevent a flood that might
result from the torrential rains, common
to that country. Burros are being used
to bring water to her camp
THE life is u rough one" her husband
said today" but the compensation is more
than attractive. The possibility of discos-
ing to civilization the history of the people
who Inhabited the North American Con-
tincnt before the time of Columbus is claim
ing the attention of scientists in that field
of work"
Mrs Wilson was elected to the principal
ship OF the South Philadelphia High School
for Girls about a year ago. after long
and hard fight on the part of her supporters
i'm the Board of Education.

SUCH VESSELS WITH
OUT WARNING.
AMERICANS WARNED NOT
TO SAIL ON ARMED SHIP
Will Be Entitled to No More Protec-
ton From American Government
Than if They Had Embarked
Upon Allied Warship, Accord
ing to High Officials.

Washington, Feb. 12.-Germany and
Austria formally have notified the
United States that beginning March
|, commanders of their submarines
will consider armed merchant ships of
the Allies to be warships and will
treat them accordingly.
Under such instructions, a comman-
der would be at liberty to sink with
out warning any armed vessel, wheth.
er passenger or freight carrying.
Lansing is Notified.
The notifications were presented or
ally to Secretary Lansing by Count
Won Bernstorff, the German ambassa-
dor, and Baron Erich ZWiedinek,
charge of the Austro-Hungarian en-
bassy here. Notes from their govern
ments are to follow.
In view of this situation, American
citizens, it is stated by high author.
ity now may be warned that they will
take passage aboard armed merchant
ships at their own risk, and be entitled
to no more protection from the United
States than if they had embarked upon
a belligerent warship. Officials SEEM
ed not to be able to conceive that any
issue could arise in the future from
a submarine warfare conducted under
these rules.

the blood. They become sluggish and
weaken, then you suffer with dull
misery in the kidney region, sharp
pains in the back or sick headache,
dizziness, your stomach sours, tongue
Is coated and when the weather is bad
you have rheumatic twinges. The
urine gets cloudy, full of sediment, the
channels often get sore and irritated,
obliging you to seek relief two or
three times during the night.
To neutralize these irritating acids,
to cleanse the kidneys and flush off
the body's urinous waste get four
ounces of Jad Salts from any phar-
macy here; take tablespoonful in
glass of water before breakfast for a
few days and your kidneys will then
act fine. This famous salts is made
from the acids of grapes and lemon
Juice, combined with lithia, and has
been used for generations to flush and
stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to
neutralize the acids in urine, so it no
longer initiates, thus ending bladder
weakness.
