Reports in circulation. mainly in
 New York, that an advance tip on the presidents peace move had been
 obtained by stock spectators and that
 some of them had profited heavily,
 crystallized in the introduction of
 resolution in the house by Representa-
 tive w. R. Wood, an Indiana Republi-
 can, providing for an investigation by
 committee of five representatives.
 When Secretary Lansing was told of
 the Wood resolution he laughed and
 said that he would be very glad to
 ha.S an investigation. Other officials said the gossip was ridiculous.
 By the terms of the resolution the committee is to investigate whether any one high in the administration of governmental affairs in the United States prof1ted financially, either di- rectly or indirectly, by the fiuctuation in the stock market occurring Thurs day, Dec. 21, 1916, following the two contradictory interpretations given to the public from the office of the secre- tary of state concerning the note of the president of the United States, datd Dec. 20, 1916. to the belligerent powers.p The note was dated Dec. IS. Photo shows Representative Wood.

NEW YEARS THOUGHTS

It is sometimes said that you can judge of peoples characters by the use they make of their leisure time. The New Years celepration might be regarded in the same way. People who are worshipfully inclined attend watch meetings. They open their hearts to the spiritual feeling of the hour. It is an imaginative moment as one thinks of the vast cycles ot eternity. and the completion of one more yearly journey of our earth about it's accustomed path. The mo- ment suggests the immensity of the universe, the infinity of time, the lit tloness of man, and the fuulity of the fret and fever of this life.
 Those who are bent on galety watch the old year out. They blow horns, eat and drink overmuch, an6

 New Years used to be a time for making good resolutions. The ex- presSon turning over new leaf was favorite one. The idea has been vastly ridiculed. Certainly the man who can make good resolutions only once a year stands little chance of accomplishing anything. Still there are many people of hesltating and uncertain impulses who have been helped by this idea of a fresh start.
 There is something rather exhila- rating about the idea of new begin- ming on January 1. It suggests the mystery and the possibilities of the future. To many of us 1917 will

The Newest Remedy for Backache Rheumatism & Drops

Kidney, Bladder and Uric Acid
troubles bring misery to many. When
the kidneys are weak or diseased,
these natural filters do not cleanse
the blood sufficiently, and the poisons
are carried to all parts of the body.
There follow depression, aches and
pains, heaviness, drowsiness, irrita-
bility, headaches, chilliness and rheu-
matism. In some people there are
sharp pains in the back and loins, dis
tressing bladder disorders and some
times obstinate dropsy. The uric acid
sometimes forms into gravel or kid
ney stones. When the uric acid affects
the muscles and joints, it causes lum-
bago, rheumatism, govt or sciatica.
This is the time to try "Anuric"
During digestion uric acid is alb
sorbed into the system from meat eat
en-, and even from some vegetables.
The poor kidneys get tired and back
ache begins. This is a good time to
take "Anuric," the new discovery of

Dangers of Draft.

Drafts feel best when we are hot
and perspiring, just when they are
most dangerous and the result is neu-
ralgia, stiff neck, sore muscles or
sometimes an attack of rheumatism.
In such cases apply Sloan's liniment.
1t stimulates circulation to the sore
and painful part. The blood flows
freely and in short time the stiff
ness and pain leaves. Those suffer
ing from neuralgia or neuralgia head
ache will find one or two applications
of Sloan's Liniment will give grateful
relief. The agonizing pain gives way
to a tingling sensation of comfort and
warmth and quiet rest and sleep is
possible. Good for neuritis, too. Price
