STATESBORO MINISTER
GETS REAL HELP
Rev. ]. Powell Tells How He Found
New Strength to Give to
His LabOrs.

Rev. ]. Powell of Statesboro, Ca,
suffered from stomach troubles SO
seriously that they affected his work.
He struggled on under the handi-
cap as best he could-hardly realiz-
ing, perhaps, just how much his
sickness was hurting him.
One day he learned of Mayr's Won
derful Remedy. He took the first
dose-then decided to take the full
treatment. He wrote:
"Since using the six bottles of your
wonderful remedy feel like another
man. 1t has been quite wonder to
me to know how one could have a
stomach disease like mine and live
and do the work I did. I just es-
capped the operating table.
"Now l can eat what / please and
it doesn't hurt me night or day."
Mayr's Wonderful Remedy gives
permanent results for stomach, liver
and intestinal ailments. Eat as much
and whatever you like. No more
distress after eating, pressure of gas
in the stomach and around the
heart Get one bottle of your drug

guarantee not satisfactory money

LEAGUE TO HALT WARS URGED.
World Peace Without Americas Aid
Is impossible, Declares Bryce

Birmingham, England. - Viscount
Brycs of Dechmont. former British am
basssdor at Washington. addressing
the congregational Union, decried the
spirit of hate against the Germans and
the talk of lasting trade war. In
conclusion, he advocated league to
restrain aggression and compel arbi-
traLion.
'If there is to be a recurrence of
wars, becoming more terrible with the
unceasing advance of SCIENCE" he
said I'VE may well despair of the fu-
ture"
Lord Bryce recalled that Premier
Asquith, Sir Edward Grey and Mr. Bal
four had expressed energetically and
sincerely the need of such machinery,
and said that several groups of think
ers were working out the plans
ITO establish any machinery for pre-
serving peace" continued Lord Bryce,
would be impossible without the CO
operation of the neutral states, and
especially the greatest of all the neu-
trail states.
I'VE have been waiting and watch
ing to see whether America would, in
view of the immense interests at
stake, depart from her old policy OF
complete isolation and bear her part
in the effort for securing a permanent
alliance for peace. An influential
league for that purpose has already
been formed there, and now two mo
mentous events have happened, on
which l dwell because they have been
little noticed here"

ATTITUDE ON u-BOAT ISSUE
KNOWN AND RESPECTED.
But Recent Speech of German Chan
ceIlor Again Evokes Warning
Not to Endanger Americans.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Washington. - Increasing agitation
in Germany for complete resump-
tion of submarine warfare, Chancellor
Won Bethmann-Hollweg's declaration
before the Reichstag that any states
man failing to use Germans every
weapon to shorten the war deserves
to be hanged" and the recent appar-
emily inspired simultaneous publica-
tion in German papers of attacks on
American neutrality, brought forth an
authoritative, though informal state
ment from the State Department of
the American governments attitude
toward the situation.
Any action which endangers Ameri-
can lives through the sinking of ships
without warning or by failing to pro-
vide proper safeguards, it was en-
phatically asserted, will Immediately
reopen the submarine question with
all its possibilities. But so far, in
spite of what is going on in Germany,
there has been absolutely no indica-
tion in the official advices that Ger.
many has violated the agreement ar
rived at in the Sussex case.
Reports of the sinking of nearly
thirty merchant ships since June L
have been received officially, but in no
case has it been proved that Ameri.
can lives were endangered.
