SPECIAL NOTE-Dr. f. Sauer. a we'll
known physician who has studied widely in
both this country and Europe. has been spe-
cially employed to make n thorough investi-
cation into the real secret Of the great
strength, power and endurance OF Jess Will
lard, and the marvellous value OF nuxated
iron a strength builder.
New YOrk.-Upon being interviewed
at his apartment in the Colonial Hotel.
Mr.. Willard said: yes, I have a
chemist with me to study the value
Of different foods and products as to
their power to produce great strength
and endurance, both OF which are so
necessary in the prize ring. On his
recommendation I have often taken
nuxated iron and I have particularly
advocated the free use Of iron by all
those who wish to obtain great physical
and mental power. Without IL I am
sure that I should never have been able
to whip Jack johnson so completely
and easily as I did, and while training
for my bout with Frank Moran, 1
regularly took nuxated iron, and am
certain that it was a most important
factor in my winning so easily"

VIENNA. Dec. 21. - "Concordia." a journalistic association of Cranz, con sisting of German writing newspaper men of Bohemia, SaIzburg and the Tyrol, have involved itself in a bitter controversy, and in doing so is throw ing some interesting sidelights on the newspaper situation in Austria, by charging that a definite effort Is be ing made to assemble the press Of Vienna in a gigantic trust
 Privy Councillor Sieghart, Of one of the largest of the Vienna banks. is the man the "Concordia" is fighting. and the journals claim he, not content with controlling a large part of the Vienna papers, Is trying to extend his sphere of influence to Bohemia and the Tyrol The control is being exert ed they claim through the banks, and they want the new government to take a hand in the interests of free and independent press.

FEW ARE S|CK ON THE VERDUN
 FRONT

FORT DAUX, Dec. 20. - French soldiers have withstood the awful rig ors and privations of the fighting during the wet fall in the sector around Nerdun with notably little sick ness. The army doctor in charge of division told the Associated Press correspondent the number of sick in many of the battalions was as low a. three or four per thousand
 Men in the front line are put to the trying experience of remaining fo. days at time in the open crouchine in shell holes, which have been joined together by stiff spade work. At this period of the year the frequent rains and wet mists drench them to tho skin, while the mud in which they lie soon changes their uniforms from lfgh blue to a color which is indistingufsb able from the field gray of the Ger mars or the khaki of the British.

CLAIM CANCER |S NUT
 HEREDITARY

NEW YORK, Dec, 20. - Two years study of original insurance statistics indicate cancer is neither hereditary nor contagious, according to a paper presented to the Association of Life Insurance Presidents here today by President Arthur Hunter, of the Ac- tuarial Society of America.
 There seems little to support the view that cancer is the result of con tagion. Twenty thousand applications for insurance were reviewed and it was found that in 488 cases one only of the parents of the applicant was stated to have died from cancer and in four cases both parents were stated to have died of that disease There were 122 times as many cases in which one parent had died of cancer as of those in which both parents had died of that disease. There could hardly be a stronger test than the case of husband and wife"

GOODLATAN GIVES VIEWS
 LIN WAR

Chief Goodlataw, of the Copper river Indians, is highly incensed that Uncle Sam does not put an end to the war in Europe. GOOdlataw is learned man among his tribesmen. He knows Alaska well, and as a taker of salmon and Tapper of foxes he is without an equal. He gained considerable repu- tation during the building of the Cop per River X Northwestern railway by bringing to court offenders who sold liquor to members of his tribe and he has profound respect for the officers Of the court, who are to him the high est representatives of the law.
 Ever since the war began in Europe GOodlataw has been hearing about it from time to time, but his only com ment has been: Those fellows bet ter look out over there"
 Recently the chief listened with in creasing restlessness to talk about the battle of the Somme, with details of the number killed, wounded and cap tured, big guns and miles of trenches Finally he broke out with:
 Whats the matter over that place, no United States marshal? Why, they don't write letter to the judge? He fix 'em."

PEKING. Dec. 20. - The ministry of interior. prompted by Chinese medi- cal men with western scientific train ing, has just issued a circular to pro vincial officials calling attention to the edict issued ten years ago against foot binding. and urging them to put 1t into effect. In remote sections the practice is almost as general as it was and | is no uncommon sight in sea young girls with bound feet even in Picking and other North China cities where the practice never was as much in favor as in the south.
 Rewards are now to be offered to family and clan chiefs who succeed in stamping out foot binding among the persons under their patriarchial jurisdiction,

NATIONAL PARKS BE INCLUDED
 IN FORESTRY

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 20. - The watchful eye of the forest fire fight ing system Of the forest service will include the national parks in their range of vision should a recommends tion made by Secretary of Agriculture Houston and contained in his annual report to congress be favorably acted upon by that body.
 The secretary recommends that the national parks. now under the juFis diction Of the department of the in terior, and the national forests, admin istered by his own department, should be placed by congressional action un der one executive department of the government By inference the secre taTy says this should be the depart ment of agriculture.
 Secretary Houston's recommends tion follows considerable discussion in his own department regarding the future administration of the national forests and parks. According to Coert Dubois, United States district forest CT here, the adyisability of transfer ring the national parks from the de partment of the interior. of which Secretary Lane is the head. to the de partment of agriculture, has frequent ly been discussed in forest service circles, and has been the subject Of informal discussions with Secretary Houston.
 MT. Houston's report points out that the importance of clear cut policy with reference to the administration of the national parks and forests Is evidenced by the efforts frequently made to secure the creation of ma, tional parks out of areas containing great bodies of timber, extensive graz. ing lands, and other resources, the withdrawal Of which from use would be uneconomical and prejudicial to the local and general public interest" He declares that cause for confusion lies in the fact that the national parks and national forests are administered by two executive departments"
