WASHINGTON LADY
SURELY SUFFERED
Mrs. Louise Callahan, 1922
20" St. N. w., Relates How
Plant Juice Bene7
fted Her.

The natural vegetable medicines are
constructive in their action, soothing in
famed tissues, Strengthening weak parts,
toning up sluggish organs, and gently
\ stimulating them to natural vigor and
activity. They build up the health Of the
whole body. The others, on the other hand,
act by substitution; they practically ali
have violent, irritating and poisonous
properties, and in place Z the natural
action of the organ, they goad It to a
violent reaction, which leaves 1t infiamed
and exhausted and less able to do its
proper work. The next time it will de-
pend on the drug, and a habit Is quickly
formed.
Thousands Of people are preserving thar
health and building up their happiness
and usefulness by the use Of the new
herbal stomach remedy. Plant Juice
Natures own peerless tonic Not q day
passes but what statements are received
from well known local people, telling Of
the benefits derived from Plant Juice, IN
illness Of long standing.
The signed statement OF Mrs. Louise
Callahan, who lives at No. 3622 o street
northwest, and u a well known lady II
this city, having many friends and ac-
quaintances, was recently received Mrs
Callahan tells how her mother was re-
lieved Of a severe case Of stomach trouble
" Aohl OuCcp dS 1OhO"S-
MY mother had suffered for four years
with stomach trouble and kidney trouble;
her food fermented and formed gas and
she would bloat and be in terrible misery
after eating. She could not sleep at night
on account Of the pain. and was subject
to commissions; she had been confined to
the house for three years. as she was
afraid TO go out on the street, she was in
such constant misery. She had head
aches, her liver was sluggish, she was
constipated and got very weak and COM
pletely run down. We had read In our
home papers Of the number Of people who
had been cured by Plant Juice, and de-
cided to get q bottle for my mother. II
has made her feel Hike new woman;
she can eat anything now and digest Il
She u not nervous and 1eeps well at
nighti Il has relieved her Of the convul-
sions and she Is now able to enjoy life.
She is glad to recommend Plant Juice"

PRESIDENT LAYSPLANS

Close Advisers Declare Wilson Anxious
to Act as Mediator.
CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE,

flict with or retard with the movemen,
for peace. 1t was understood that action
in the Marina and Arabia cases was
being held up for fear they might inter-
fere with the more important issue.
Secretary Lansing declined to discuss
the German note on the ground that the
official communication from Chancellor
Won Bethmann- Hollweg had not been re-
ceived. The delay in transmission, he
said. was not unusual as 1t frequently
takes from thirty-six to forty-eight hours
to get coded communication of such
length through from Berlin.
1t was explained that the note would
come via Copenhagen, where It would
be relayed to England. second, and
possibly a third relay. has been made
necessary by war conditions before such
communications reach the Atlantic
cables.
Opinion in official circles yesterday was
widely divergent as to the probable
course to be pursued by President, Will
son. At the State Department the view
was expressed by one official that the
President cannot do more at this
stage than transmit the communication
from the central powers to the entente
group. To do more, as this official sees
it, would be to invite the embarrassing
consequences of rejection.
Looking to Wilson.
Regardless Of these considerations there
Is a widespread feeling in administration
circles that President Wilson will not
neglect what may be the last opportunity
in a long time to put forward word for
peace.
An opinion which met with much sup
port in diplomatic circles was that Ger
many would be willing to have an agree
ment reached for the establishment of a
league Of neutral nations. In this con-
nection, 1t was pointed out, that the Vati-
can alone has been requested to take an
active interest in urging q peace move
ment
A league of neutral nations. It was ex-
planned, would give Germany assurances
that she would not suffer from British
aggressions on the seas. 1t would also
give Great Britain assurances that Ger
many would not again try to overrun
Europe.
The opinion that Germany's proposal is
master move in strategy extends to
Congress. In quarters where only Tues
day doubt was cast over the sincerity
Of the news from Berlin, yesterday It
was considered as the most important
world development since the original dec
laration Of war.
Effort has been made to prevent the
introduction Of resolutions in Congress
which might In any way embarrass the
Chief Executive. A number OF Congress
men called at the executive ofices dur
ing the day and expressed confidence in
the Presidents ability to accomplish the
greatest possible result In the interest
of peace.
Senator Chamberlain, OF the Foreign
Affairs Committee, discussed the Eu-
rcpean situation with the President dur
ing the afternoon. On leaving the White
House he said he was in favor Of a

the entente allies urging the acceptance
