THE NEWEST REr1EDY
FOR
Baekaehe, Rheumatism and Dropsy.

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-
pains in the back and loins, distressing
bladder disorders and sometimes obstin-
ate dropsy. The uric acid sometimes
forms into gravel or kidney stones. When
the uric acid affects the muscles and
joints, it causes lumbago, rheumatism,
govt or sciatica. This is the time TO try
During digestion uric acid is absorbed
into the, system from meat eaten, and
even from some vegetables. The poor
kidneys get tired and backache begins.
This. is a. good time to take eAnuric,"
the new discovery of DR.. Pierce for Kid
ney trouble and Backache. Neglected
kidney trouble is responsible for many
deaths, and Insurance Company examine
applicant before q policy will be issued.
Have you ever set aside q bottle of water
Tor twenty-four hours? A heavy sedf-
ment or settling sometimes indicates kid
ney trouble The true nature and char.
acter OF diseases, especially those of the
kidneys and urinary organs, can often
be determined by a careful chemical an

you wish to know your condition send q
sample of your water to Doctor Pierce's
Inyalids' Hotel, Buffalo, n. Y, and de-
scribe your symptoms. It will be ex-

Physicians will inform you truthfully.

The Horse Collar.

The horse collar should fit snugly. 1t
should not pinch at the crest Of the
neck, and there should be room enough
between the collar and the lower part
Of the neck to admit the hand freely
when not pulling. The contact surface
of the collar should be smooth and
plastic and distributed overeas much
bearing surface as possible. The! In
crustations that form on collar should
be removed daily to prevent increased
friction. Sweat pads Of false collars
should not be- used except in cases
where the animal has been CALLED OF

SOME FARM TIPS.

Do not allow pruning to litter the
yard or orchard. Be sure to burn and
return the ashes to the soil.
Good drainage Is absolutely essential
to the successful growth Of potatoes.
The good dairy cow eats largely, d.
gests amply and milks abundantly.
It is sometimes a good plan to top
work apple or plum trees with sother
varieties in order to be sure of good
pollination.
Don't try to sell your produce In a
market that is already oversupplied

Germany's Proposal to Open Nego-

ENGL AND AGAINST PEACE
AT EXPENSE OF ALLIES
Germany Must Make Full Repara-
ton, Says Member of War
Council

LONDON. December 16.-In discuss
ing the German proposals at dinner
of the Steel Smelters' Assaeistion last
night Arthur Henderson, member of
the British war council without port
folio. said that the government knew
nothing concerning the text of the
proposals. and that Germany's motives
must remain Il matter OF speculation
for the moment.
From past and recent events" said
Mr.. Henderson, I'VE may anticipate
without overassumption that any pro-
posals Germany may put forward will
not err on the side OF magnanimity.
They must he examined with the great
est possible care.
We. of all people, must not forget
that Germany was prepared for peace
with this country as late as August,
1914. But on what conditions? That
we were prepared TO betray France and
acauiesce in the violation in the neu-
trality Of Belgium. which Germany,
like ourselves, had on oath sworn to
maintain.
The people of this country are pre-
pared to accept peace today, as in Au-
gust, 1914. provided that peace is both
lust and permanent. Indemnity for
the mast is not enough unless we have
for the future, and guaran-
tees for the future are not enough
without reparation for all Belgium.
France, Serbia and Poland have suf-
fered.
The peace into which we enter must
contain guarantees for its own dura-
tion. Germany may have such a peace
if she furnishes us with proofs of her
good intentions. But II her present
oyertures are only pretense, and if 1t
is shown that she is merely arranging
an armistice to obtain a breathing
snace that will furnish her the oppor-
tunity to lay fresh plans of aggression.
then. say, whatever may be tho
tenntation to the people of these
islands. we must set our faces. like the
steel YOU work upon, against her pro-
posals."
