10 Telephone Subscribers

~ Is proposed to submit to the telephone users Of
wnsenng and adjoining towns in West Virginia a plan to
combine the systems Of the Central n;.tr;c+ T.,snhan~
company and the Consolidated Telephone Company Of
West Virginia. ' "
Inc advantages Of one telephone system in a commu-
nty, subject to regulation by proper governmental author
isy' mas been proved by the experience of MANY cities and
communities where the establishment of a single system
mas supplanted the annoyance and inconvenience Of two
systems.
This plan has already been submitted to the sub
scrloers In a number of cities and towns in West virginia
and at each place it has been almost universally approved.
II the plan is endorsed by the subscribers of both COM
panles at Wheeling and the adjacent towns the work of
consolidating the two systems will begin at the earliest
possible date and be carried forward with the utmost dis
patch.

DENIES settlement
OF LUSiTAN|A CASE
U. S. Did Not Agree Sinking
Was Unsuitable.

Washington, Oct. 19.-Reports tina.
the German note of February 16 for
the settlement of the Lusitania case
had been accepted by the Americ an
government and was soon to be pab
lished by the state department., caus
ed Frank l.. Polk, acting secretary of
state, to authorize the following state
ment:
THE note has not been accepted,
and is not to be given out. The state
department is not to be drawn into a
discussion of this case at this time"
The last draft of the Lusitania
memorandum, which was addressed to
Secretary of State Lansing, last Feb
ruary, and has since remained I'M
acted upon, has been published in sub
stance at least twice since it was
delivered. It's text never has been
given out.
It begins by referring to the con-
ditions prevailing in the war area of
the North Sea and says submarine
warfare around the British Isles was
started by Germany in retaliation for
what she considers an illegal" block
ade of Germany.
1t continues that Germany consid-
ers warfare of reprisals justified by
the action of Great Britain, describ-
ing Great Britain's actions as "inhu-
man." and points out that neutral yes
sells have been affected by what are
described as the efforts of the British
government to starve Germany.
The memorandum says the killing
of Americans was not intentional, be-
cause reprisals must not be directed
against others than enemy subjects.
These latter terms were substituted
for phrases which included the word
illegal" which Germany was unwi,l-
ing to incorporate in the memoran-
dunn.
Then the memorandum expresses
regret for the loss of American lives,
assumes liability for the losses Cd
the Lusitania and offers reparation in
the form of indemnity. 1t closes with
references to the freedom of the seas,
and expressed hope that Germany
may have opportunity to cooperate
with the United States to bring it
about, if ossible, before the end of
the war

ITS FIVE YEARS OLD
But Mr.. Phillips Says It's Just as
Good Today as When 1t Was First
Made.

Over five years ago Mr.. Phillips
testified to complete relief from kid

He now says that there has not

BILE.
Cambridge sufferers will take a
deal of comfort in Mr.. Phillips
statement.
Read what he says:
w. E. Phillips, Ill Academy ST.,
Cambridge, gave the following state
ment on June 2, 1911. He said: Il
had pains in my back and often in
the morning after 1 got up, 1 could
not raise my hands above my head.
My back was stiff and lame and af-
ter STOPPING, it was all 1 could do to
straighten. I finally began using
Doan's Kidney Pills and found
prompt relief"
On August 1, 1916, Mr. Phillips
said: Il am glad to confirm the
statement 1 made before, praising
Doan's Kidney Pills. 1 am glad to
say that 1 have had no return of
my former trouble"
Price Soc at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for kidney remedy-get

commended. FosterMilburn Co.,

Ascent bottle destroys dandruff and
doubles beauty of your hair.

Within ten minutes after an ap-
plication of Danderine you can not
md single trace of dandruff or
falling hair and your scalp will not
itch, but what will please you most
will be after few weeks use,when
you see new hair, fine and downy at
drst-yes-but really new hair
growing all over the scalp.
A little Danderine Immediately
doubles the beauty of your hair. No
difference how dull, faded, brittle
and scraggy, just moisten a cloth
with Danderine and carefully draw
It through your hair, taking one
small strand at a time. The effect is
amazing-your hair will be light,
fluffy and wavy, and have an ap-
pearance of abundance; an incom-
parable lustre, softness and luxuri-
ance.
Get a ascent bottle of Knowl-
toms Danderine from any drug store
or toilet counter, and prove that
your hair is as pretty and soft as
any-that it has been neglected or
injured by careless treatment
that's all-you surely can have beau
tiful hair and lots of it if you will
Just try a little Danderine.-Adv.

Bishop Tucker Tells of Conditions in

st. Louis, Oct. 19.-Japanese people
feel that the best interests of their
country depend on the preservation of
friendly relations with the United
States, Ri. Rev. H. st. George Tucker,
bishop of Kyoto, told delegates to the
General convention of the Protestant
Episcopal church.
Bishop Tucker spoke at joint ses.
sion of the two houses comprising
the convention, reviewing the scope
and methods of the church's foreign
mission work
1.-The only possible cause of trou
ble," Bishop Tucker continue l.,
would be in a conviction on the
part of the Japanese that they were
being unjustly Disseminated against
and that their national honor invo.v-
ed. Even in regard to the question of
the immigration of the Japanese into
this country the Japanese government
has shown willingness to meet the
wishes of the United States by a So
called 'gentlemens agreement 1t has
undertaken to prevent further emf
grafton of Japanese to America and
statistics show that in the past few
years they have carried out this agree,
ment."

How Cata1rh is Contracted.

Mothers are sometimes so thought
less as to neglect the colds which
their children contract. The in
fammation of the mucus membrane,
at first acute, becomes chronic and
the child has chronic catarrh, a dis
ease that is seldom cured and that
may prove LIES burden. Many
persons who have this loathsome
disease will remember having had
frequent colds at the time it was
contracted. A little forethought, a
