Odanah Woman Sees Her TWO
Children Drown.

To see her two children drown be-
side her as she struggled to rescue
them from the icy waters of Kakagon
river was the experience on Sunday
of Mrs. Joseph Durant of Odanah.
Lawrence Durant, II years old, ven
tured out too far on the thin ice
while skating and broke through.
His sister Della, Is years old, went
to his rescue and she, too, broke
through the Nthin ice. The mother
was notified Of the accident and
rushed to the children's assistance.
When she walked on the ice it broke
with her and the three struggled for
their lives together. Mrs. Durant saw
the children gradually cease their
struggles from exhaustion and cold
and sink beneath the surface with
out being able to aid them. Mrs. Dur
ant was saved by her husband after
she had been in the water thirty min
utes. The children's bodies were re.
covered.

make their appeal on the ground that
the present systems assure the public
of the continued adequacy Of trans
portation facilities. If they do not, no
argument based on the desirability of
the present dual system of regulation
will be accepted by public judgment.
The question of states rights is not
Involved. II the regulation Of transpor-
tation facilities privately owned should
fail government ownership must fol
low, and then all power Of the states
over the railroads would disappear.
Let us debate this question, then,
not upon any mere theory or jealousy
as to the distribution of governmental
power, but upon the large issue of
what the public interest requires in
respect Of the assurance of adequate
transportation service"

Not a Bite of
Breakfast Until
You Drink Water
Says a glass of hot water and
phosphate prevents illness
and keeps us fit.

Just as coal, when it burns, leaves
behind a certain amount of incom-
bustible material in the form Of ashes,
so the food and drink taken day after
day leaves in the alimentary canal a
certain amount of indigestible ma
terial, which if not completely climina-
ted from the system each day, be-
comes food for the millions of bacteria
which infest the bowels. From this
mass of leftover waste, toxins and
ptomain-like poisons are formed and
sucked into the blood.
Men and women who can't get feel
ing right must begin to take inside
baths Before eating breakfast each
morning drink a glass of real hot
water with teaspoonful of lime
stone phosphate in it to wash out OF
the thirty feet of bowels the previous
days accumulation of poisons and
toxins and to keep the entire alimen.
tary canal clean, pure and fresh.
Those who are subject to sick head
ache, colds, biliOusness, constipation,
others who wake up with bad taste,
foul breath, backache, rheumatic stiff
ness, or have sour, gassy stomach
after meals, are urged to get quarter
pound of limestone phosphate from
the drug store, and begin practicing
internal sanitation. This will cost
very little, but is sufficient to make
anyone an enthusiast on the subject.
Remember inside bathing is more
important than outside bathing, be.
cause the skin pores do not absorb
impurities into the blood, causing poor
health, while the bowel pores do
Just as soap and hot water cleanses
sweetens and freshens the skin, Sc
hot water and limestone phosphate
act on the stomach, liver, kidneys and
bowels.

Washington, Nov. ga new policy
Of government railroad regulation.
based on constructive principles OF

Thorn, counsel for the Railway Execu-

whole subject Of transportation, to

of experiment, Of it's history, it's pres

The railroads accept the view that reg

part of government in America and
that the first duty of the carriers is to
the public. That duty is to afford
reasonable facilities on reasonable
terms and at reasonable rates, and this
must bedone before any private inter-

Certainty, Safety and sufficency.
Mr. Thorn contended that the real in

THE TERM OF THE WAR.

For two years the entente allies fought
an uphill battle, that is, against great
odds in preparedness and the consequent
odds due to vast advantage gained by
Germany and her allies in territory
seized. Those vast odds carried the war
into the territory of the entente allies on
all sides and the peoples occupying those
sections were forced to submit to ire
mendous sacrifices because of the pres
ence of the enemy Notwithstanding the
great task ahead the entente allies went
at the work courageously and endeavored
to make up in part for the lack of prep
aration at the outbreak Of the war. They
never whimpered when whipped, dashed
and stung by the temporarily greater
power of the Teutonic allies; they took
their medicine when they we're forced TO
take it and all the time they went about
10 build and equip armies to cope with
the Teutonic allies. After two years
they had reached such a stage of prep
,rstion that it might be considered they
we're finally on parity with Germany
It ais as regards men, equipment, cannons
md munitions. Then the tide Of battle
turned; Germany and her allies were
forced back on nearly every front ami
