DO THIS FIRST-YOU!

You know, and every physician
knows, that when any sickness has
passed, whether it be throat trouble,
organic disturbances, contagious dis
eases, or even a severe cold, a relapse
is feared, because sickness robs the
system of Natures resistance and
leaves It subject to lingering germs.
Drugs never build up a wom-out
body-only food can do that, ana the
first thing to take after any sicknessis
the concentrated, blood making oil.
food in SCOTS Emulsion, which feeds
the tissues, benefits the blood and
strengthens both lungs and throat.
Physicians prescribe SCOTS Emul'
sion after sickness. Nurseseveywhere
advocate il. SCOTS is pure medicinal
food, without alcohol or drugs.

GERMANS LOOK FOR
JAP-AMER|CAN WAR
Rumors Always Fly Whenever
Air Is Filled With Talk Of
Lusitania Crisis.
By CARL w. ACKERMAN.

BERLIN (By Mail), Feb. Ser
mans believe the next great war Will
be fought between the United States and
Japan, with Holland possibly on Amer
ica's side.
Nowhere In America, except perhaps
on the Pacific coast, Is there such lively
discussion Of a japanese American con-
fict, as in Germany. Germans believe
war between the two countries inevitable
because Japan wants the Philippines
and is restless under American imml-
grafton laws.
Seemingly, whenever the air Is fillet
with reports of a new Lusitania crisis
between Germany and the United states.
the Japan American war talk is revived
On a recent day when the Lusitanla
reached a critical point, the Berlin pa
pers printed a dispatch, declaring Japan
had sent the United States a yelled uiu-
matum, demanding that Japanese cil-
Gems be allowed to land In America
without restrictions. Immediately the r..
port spread that the United Staes would
back down on the Lusitania question: not
wanting to have two enemies on hcr
hands at once.
do you know what Germany Is going
to do II Japan ever makes war on the
United States?" asked one German OF
fcer. converting with an American cor.
respondent on the day OF the alleged
"ultimatum."
''She Is going to sell japan all the
arms and ammunition she wants. l per-
sonally am a poor man. but have N,OOO
in the bank which | shall gladly con-
tribute to the Japanese war fund"
That Is the attitude of many naval
and army officers.
Holland. according to best information
available here. fears that on the same
day the Japanese war party De
mands an attack on the United states.
Java and her other possessions In the
East Indies will become ENDANGERED.
For that reason German critics believe
Holland will be found on Americas side
In event of war with japan.
