Your Destiny Rests
In Your Own Hands

1t is literally true that YOU
can do with yourself practical
~ what you will. But to do
this you must first have the
determination. And you most
certainly must take the fullest
advantage OF every quality
with which nature has en-
dowed you. You must keep
your health in the most per-
feet possible condition. This
means that
YOU MUST TAKE CARE
OF YOUR TEETH
Because there is nothing that
has a more direct bearing on
the condition OF your health
than your teeth. And here is
now 1t comes about. If you
have good teeth you can masti-
cate your food properly, which
is a tremendous factor in
digestion. Your physician will
tell you that the real founder
ton of good health is good a
gestion. Without it you will
feel badly all over-you can't

The German Foreign Office Issue Statement at Close of Second
 Year of War.
HUMILIATED
Germany Treading on the Threshold of Third Year with Great
 Confidence.

BERLIN, July 3t.-The foreign of- flee, reviewing the events at the close Of the second year of the war, today issued a statement which deals not only with the war conditions but also from a political standpoint. The statement says in part:
 "The world war, which was caused by Russlas aggressive policy wae supported by Frances policy Of re- venge. But the war was rendered possibly solely by the fact that England subordinated to her eeono- mic antagonism to Germany, all of her other interests.
 "Germanys enemies regard 1t quite in order that they demand terrItor- Ial aagrandlzement at cost to othero, like the Russlano, who want Con- stantlnople and ealicia; Ike the French, who deslre the AIsaee and the Lorraine distriets and the left bank of the Rhein; like the Italians who seek Austrian territory which they grudge.
 "All three nations are unwilling that Germany should become great and strong because other powers want to become economic centers of the world
 "The American citizens themselves know what damage has been infliet- ed on their trade brought about by the illegal blockade. In spite of the American's own power, he has borne hitherto many humllations with surprising patience. Perhaps, in his silent admiration for the for. ciqn powers, the American has sil- ently borne these things that have greatly humilated him.
 "out of regard for the interests of the neutrals, Germany has rein- quished for the present one of her most effective weapons against the enemy although she was compelled to wage a life and death struggle.
 "euilding upon what she has aI' ready achieved, Germany treads the threshold of the third year of war with unshaken confidence. But the coal has not yet been reached for her enemies have not yet come to see the imposslbility of subjudlcat- ing Germany"

BODY OF MAN IS
 FOUND IN WOODS

The body of a man thought to be F. Schwaab old man. who disap- peared from Juneau several months ago, was found in the woods near Lemon Creek this morning by II. P. Crowther and Victor Manville, who were running survey line.
 The body was brought to town this afternoon by Charles Hensel, of the C. w. Young Undertaking Parlors and Deputy Marshal James Manning. When found the body was in the woods 200 yards from the road and a half Tile beyond the Davis cabin. The body was lying face up with one leg dou- bled under and with an empty bot tie which smelled of whiskey, ly- ing near. There was no evidence of foul play and it looked to be a clear case of suicide.
 The body was badly decomposed but appeared to be the remains of an old man. The hair was sandy gray and long and the body was clothed in a blue serge suit with a purple stripe, black short over coat, black soft felt hat, new rubber shoe pacs with red soles, a brown knit tie, with a horseshoe stick pin set with four leave clover and small stones. An old corn cob pipe with badly chewed stem was ly- ing by the head of the body.
 Schwaab was one or those who was being aided by Mrs. Mary E. Bergmann and disappeared on the day of her death. He was later traced out the Salmon Creek road as far as the Salmon creek power house and was never seen again. Searching parties organized and sent out but were unable to find any trace of him beyond that point.
