A GOOD time TO ADVERTISE

The hackneyed old phrase, Now is
the time to advertise" has special
pertinence just now. 1t is in times of
prosperity that money is made. AS
the result Of big crops. demand for
war munition, ETC., the country has
reached high stage Of prosperity.
There is plenty of money in circula-
ton and people are in a mood to buy
literally.
In such times as these advertising
pays more generously than ever. The
people are hopeful and confident, dis
posed to anticipate their wants, to
buy the best qualities. and to purchase
things they would not have felt they
could afford year ago
Merchants ought to be able to dou-
BILE their trade under these conditions.
But they can't get it by waiting for it.
They must attract more attention, take

HOusEFLY NESTS IN
FI.TH-.HELP TO
KILL him

The houseiy is a foul and dangerous
little pest. The female lays her eggs
in manure. in human excrement or in
the flesh OF dead and rotting animals,
never anywhere else. The eggs hatch
into maggots and the maggots feed on
the filth until they sprout wings and
become flies. The flies swarm into
our homes. bringing with them the
germs of many diseases-especiall
typhoid, consumption and dysentery
which they deposit on our food.
Many of our homes were saddened
last year by death resulting from dis
eases spread by flies. Therefore the
housefy is our deadly enemy and we
ought 10 kill bin of as far as possible
before warm weather comes. To do
this effectually will require the coop
GRAFTON of the whole community.
Cleanliness, generally speaking, is the
fly's greatest enemy, but If one man
cleans up his place-removing all
barnyard filth. keeping garbage cans
covered, etc.-and his neighbors on
either side do not follow suit, the one
man will not be protected from flies
and disease.
This war on flies is a job for the
whole town, and It is a big one. Il Is
suggested that our local authorities or
some Of our active citizens call a meet
ing and make plans at once TO start
the campaign for fly determination.
Let us enlist the aid of the health of.
ticers, the physicians, the merchants,
the lawyers. the mechanics. the wom-
en- and the boys and girls.
IL will be necessary to have a num-
Der OF committees to look after the
many angles OF the work and see that
proper preventive measures are taken
to remove the opportunities for flies
to lay eggs and hatch them. Swatting
the fly is ineffective-you only kill
one fly at a swat. But II you begin
earlier by spraying manure piles and
the contents OF Clubhouse vaults with
kerosene or with chloride OF lime. so
that fly eggs will not hatch In these
masses, you prevent the birth OF mill
lions OF flies.
The state board OF health will be
glad to send us all kinds OF informa-
tion helpful in carrying on hy war.
II our local doctors have none ON hand
After the campaign organization is
formed. about the first thing to do is
TO get reliable information and put II

Marriage Bliss of Short Dura-
ton, Says Bride.
Edith Hubbard Asserts Hus-
band Was Mean to Her.
KEPT FROM PARENTS, SHE SAID
Alleges Harold Didn't Want
Folk to Meet New Wife.
Papa-in-Law Stepped In and
Quieted One Row.

Matrimonial bliss was of short dura-
ton in the home of Harold E. and
Edith Hubbard. Mrs. Hubbard says il
lasted only two days-that two days
after they were married her husband
told her he didn't want TO live with
her; that he didn't want his folks to
meet her and that she could pack her
trunk and go home to her parents any
time she got ready.
The Hubbards were married Janu-
airy II of this year in Topeka Ac-
cording to the petition filed by Mrs
Hubbard in the district court today
there were no untoward incidents UNI
til the 18th, then her husband abused
her, called her vile names and toid
her he didn't want her to meet MS
people who lived in Chicago.
Then Father Miller, the wife's IA
Their, was called in. He told Hubbard
few things and the latter changed
his mind about deserving the bride OF
two days. The petition states tna-
the husband agreed to take Mrs Huo-
bard with him when he left CARBON
dale and that he did so, but that
| later he suffered a relapse and again
abused her.
1t was then, says the petition, that
Hubbard struck her and threw her
across a bed injuring her side and
! told her to take her trunk ana go
home. Mrs. Hubbard didn't go home
but a few days later, the petition says,
Hubbard deserted her at Lawrence, al
though she begged to go with him TO
Kansas City. Following the desertion
Mrs. Hubbard brought suit for divorce.
She states that her husband is a tele-
grapher for the Santa F'e Railway
company drawing a good salary and
than he has $500 worth of stock in a
building and loan company. She asks
| for a divorce and alimony. She also
asks for the restoration of her maiden
name of Edith r. Miller. She gives
| her present address as 1128 Boswell.

ENGLAND REFUSES
Tense Situation With q. S. Created by
Holding Prisoners.

Washington, April 4.-The issue
over which the United States and
Great Britain have disputed more
than a century, and which was partly
responsible for one war between the
two nations, bristled up again today.
Great Britain, in a lengthy note, re-
fused to comply with the American
demand for the release of thirty or
more Germans taken from the trans
pacific liner China, February 8. The
Germans are now held somewhere in
the orient.
The president and his cabinet, pre-
scented with the note by Secretary
Lansing, devoted more thought to the
new issue than to the submarine ques-
ton. Little new information on the
latter subject was available.
The British note contained an ele-
ment of surprise since thus far dur
ing the present war England and
France have acceded to the Ameri-
can demand for the release of persons
seized on the United States ships, no
matter what their nationality

A WAR VIOLATION
Russia Issues Protest Over
Hospital Ship Disaster.
Leaves Civilized World to Judge
"Crime," "Act of Piracy

Petrograd, April 1.-The following
is the text of the formal note which
the Russian government has sent to
all the neutral governments protesting
against the destruction of the Rus
sian hospital ship Portugal:
THE Russian hospital ship Po~cu-
gal, with a Franco Russian crew anc
u proper sanitary staff on board. was
cruising in the Black sea, it's destina-
ton being Ofow. On March 80, at
$50 o'clock in the morning, the ship
stopped off Cape Fatieh in order to
permit one of the vessels accompany
ing her to pump out water which was
hirdering progress. At this moment
subm arine approached the stationary
ship circled around her and suddenly
fired two torpedoes from distance of
about fifty meters.
lone of the torpedoes missed but
the other exploded in the engine room
of the vessel which sank at once. A
Russian torpedo boat which happened
to be in the neighborhood was able to
save 1853 persons out of the 273 aboard.
All the others, including fourteen la
dies of the Red Cross. fifty doctors and
female nurses, % Russian sailors and
80 French persisted.
THE Portugal bore all the distinc-
tive signs prescribed by the special
agreement which was signed at Ire
EdSue in 1907 and which applied to
naval warfare, the principles II the
Geneva convention. An exchange Of
nGtes between the Russian, Turkish
and Bulgarian governments accepting
these principles guarantee similar I'M
munitions to hospital ships in the
Black sea.
THE circumstances under which
this attack was made exclude all pos
sibility of a mistaken identity by the
submarine 1t was a deliberate attack.
The imperial government formally
protests to the government with which
it is at war against this new violation
of customs of war and against persis-
tent contempt for conventions and
treaties. The government sees in this
crime not only a fragrant infraction
of international law but common act
of piracy of which it makes the civil
lied world the Judge"
The note is accompanied with a re-
quest to the governments of the United
States and Spain to bring the protest
to the attention of the German, Aus
trian and Turkish governments.
