held very erroneous notions concerning
the size OF the sun. Anaximander

could be no larger than Greece and her
Islands. Heraclitus convinced his hear

while hauling wood across Silver lake
Wednesday. They first noticed what
seemed TO be boy and dog playing
on the snow covered ice. AS they
drew near the dog left for land and
they saw that the object of his at
tentions was nearly dead buck faWn
of about seventy pounds weight. A
slash from jack knife put the ami
NAL out OF it's misery and the carcass
was brought to town and turned over
to game warden Oberholzer. AS it IS
rare that dogs can overcome these

such matters think this one had been
attacked and injured by wolves be-
fore attack by Che dog.

complished yesterday without any
mishaps, although the crowd flirted
with sure death when they let their
rubbernecking instincts get the bet
ter of them and crowded into the
street after the horse drawn appar-
atus had passed and the big truck
was coming up the street. 40 miles an
hour.
The run was about as pretty dash
as one could wish to see. The Rolla
reel came first with Tigue driving.
and running close behind came the
West Keokuk grays, Yeager driving.
Both teams were going their prettiest
and kept up the break neck pace to
the finish. After the horse teams
had passed Seventh street the auto
truck with Miller driving, opened UP
and blazed through the street like
the proverbial bat out of the hot
place.
On the seat Of the truck with Mill
er was Chief Blank OF the Burling-
ton department.
The alarm was turned in In regular
fashion and the bells tapped. The
run was from Third to Eleventh
streets.

III Health Often
Caused by the Kidneys

OF all the ills mankind suffers
from, nothing is more to be feared
than those caused by kidney poison
ing, because such ailments usually
come on SO stealthily that you are
seldom aware OF their presence until
they have actually spread dangerous
diseases throughout the body. There
are. however, certain signs by which
you can tell whether your Kidneys
are properly cleansing the blood.
II you arise in the morning with
dull, aching pains in the back and
feel as If your nights rest had not
refreshed you; il you are weak, de-
pressed, nervous or irritable; IL your
head aches, spots appear before your
eyes; If your appetite is poor, your
complexion sallow; If you have indi-
gestian, biliousness, rheumatic pains
and have lost flesh rapidly. you may
be sure kidney poisons exist in your
blood, and you cannot possibly get
well until they are removed. Warn
er's Safe Kidney and Liver Remedy
has a steady. beneficial action on the
kidneys that usually brings relief in
a short time. 1t is recognized by
many physicians as one Of the most
dependable medicines in ire treat
ment of kidney and liver diseases.

was absolute proof that the war could
be ended Immediately with German
victory
II don't believe half the people Of
Germany want the submarine war re-
newed. Even if there were a change
in chancellorship, the next chancellor
could not change the governments
policy without guaranteeing that he
would win the war by so doing The
whole object Of the war is to end IT..
No one should be SO wild as to want
! to fight with two edge swords and
pistols in each hand when he would
injure himself more than his enemy.
Ny own opinion is that submarin-
ing is not to be commended because
the Tages Zeitung or some other
critic demands It. II, however, any
marine officer convinces the general
staf and the latter placed the proof
before the chancellor that by using
submarines, Zeppelins, the fleet, or
anything else, the war could be won
and If the chancellor didn't follow
this advice. ne would deserve to be
hanged. Germany must win the war
Germany must use the. weapons with
which she is certain she can win it,
But Americans believe that If the
chancellor were overthrown and sue
ceeded by representative of the Won
Tirpitz party, summarizing would be
recomm ended. perhaps endangering
again good relations between the
United States and Germany" he was
told.
""The Won Tirpitz affair is settled"
he answered emphatically. 1.-The ex-
plosion now being aired in the press
has helped to bury it, The chan
cellor is not going to be overthrow.
The government is not going to I'M
dergo any change. Even If new
chancellor came tomorrow there
would be no change in policy!

ested in seeing Germany win, realize
