Improving Washington.

Nearly every president of the United
States since the city of Washington
was laid out has endeavored better
and more beautiful than he found it.
President Wilson is no exception. He
is said to have ambitious plans for the
Improvement Of the city, and it is be-
lieved these will be carried out during
his second term. Development of the
Great Falls electric power and the es-
adjustment of a new and magnificent
public park are said to be included in
Mr.. Wilson's program.

A Great Discovery
(BY J. Il WATSON, N. D.

Swollen hands, ankles, feet are due to
a dropsical condition, often caused by
disordered kidneys. Naturally when the
kidneys are deranged the blood is filled
with poisonous waste matter, which set
ties in the feet, ankles and wrists; or
under the eyes in bag-like formations.
AS remedy for those easily recog-
nized symptoms of Inflammation caused
by uric acid = as scalding urine, back
ache and frequent urination, as well as
sediment in the urine, or if uric acid in
the blood has caused rheumatism, lum-
bago, sciatica, govt, it is simply wonder
full how quickly Anuric acts the pains
and stiffness rapidly disappear.
: Take glass of hot water before meals
and Anuric to flush the kidneys. ~
Step into any drug store and ask for
Anuric, many times more potent than
lithia and eliminates uric acid as hot
water melts sugar.

WHY DEWEY ENTERED NAVY

Ever hear how it came that George
Dewey, admiral of the United States
navy, and hero of the battle of Manila,
happened to go to Annapolis? It's a
funny story, as told by his third cousin,
Col. Elias Dewey of Chicago.
.The fact that the West Point ca
diets got. eight weeks vacation in four
years, while the 'middies' received but
one week in that length of time was
the reason the future admiral was sent
into the naval branch Of the service"
says Colonel Dewey.
George lived at Montpelier, VT,
in the middle of the, last century, and
my home was at Malone, n. Y. Our
fathers were second cousins, and both
of us youngsters received appoint
ments to West Point at the same time.
My father wouldn't let me go because
there were many Indian wars then and
he was afraid I would get scalped. 1t
happened that George was some lad in
those days and had a good time gen.

MIRACLE MAN OF THE MOUNTAINS

Some time ago trachoma broke out
in a dangerous degree in the Appa-
'lachian regions of Kentucky, Tennes-
see, Virginia and West Virginia, and
for year the federal health authori-
ties have been working to stop the
spread of the infection. At cost far
less than the cost of single torpedo
boat, the government has checked the
spread of this infection, which might
have proved an expensive plague if it
had been allowed to spread.
But the picturesque figure in the
fight is the Miracle Man of the Noun
tains, the ''gov'ment DOCTOR" DR.. John
McAIullen, who with his faithful nurses
has wrestled with the power of dark
ness and brought light to hundreds of
eyes. 1t was difficult to persuade these
simple, childlike people at first to sub
nit to operations on their eyes; now
during the latter months Of the fight
against trachoma Doctor McMullen's
clinics have lasted from daylight to

FRANCES NEW HERO

Gen. Robert George Niyelle, who
he's succeeded General Joffre as COM
mander in chief of the French forces,
carried out one of the most striking
achievements of the war-the recovery
at single stroke of almost all the
territory gained by the Germans before
Ferdun.
General Nivelle, whose mother was
English, is sixty years old and one of
the numerous discoveries" of Papa"
Joffre. At the beginning of the war
he was a colonel in command of the
Fifth regiment of artillery and about
TO be retired. He was promoted to
general of brigade on October "a, 1914,
and few weeks later placed in COM
mand of the Sixty-first infantry divi-
sion. On December %, 1915, he re-
ceived his three stars and was ap-
pointed commander of the Third army
corps.
Nivelle is said greatly to resemble

ing the money thus raised into ban
dages and dressings and clothing for
sick and wounded soldiers.
The branch had not expected so
soon to make another call, but the
proclamation of the President of the

The money recently raised was in
great part available for local uses.

CITIZENS MEET
COMMISSIONERS

An informal meeting between the
Lambertville city commissioners and
a committee from the Merchants as
ISOLATION and other local citizens was
held in the commissioners room
Tuesday evening and city affairs dis
cussed at some length. The meet
ing was called to order by City Clerk
Samuel A. Finger. and Mayor Theo-
dore Balderston made the opening
remarks. City Commissioner Samuel
W. Cochran, who is treasurer, eX-
planned that the total indebtedness
of the city is about $4,000, after
dedUcting some $4,000 outstanding
taxes. About $4,000 of this is col
lectible. According to present laws
the city must fund" this debt of
$28, 900 by November l , and whether
bonds or long time notes would be
best was considered, with sentiment
in favor of bonds. These bonds
could not run for longer period
than twenty years, and portion of
them must be paid each year. Charles
A. Malloy, George W. Massey, May
or Balderston and Frank A. Phillips
took part in the discussion.
Treasurer Cochran said that an
increased tax rate would be neces-
sary this year, owing to the increas-
ed~expenses. Shcool bonds to the
value of $1,000 must be paid off,
there will be an additional interest
of at least $1,000 over last year, and
the city tax maps will cost probably
$500, so that more than $4,000 ex-
cess must be raised this year, in ad-
dition to any advance in county or
state levies. 1t was estimated, by
some present, that the rate would
probably have to advance Csc. to
soc. per 800, based on present as
sessments, to provide the necessary
revenue. Mr.. Cochran said that the
present assessed valuation totals
about $2,400,000, and there was
considerable discussion o f taxing
methods in general. Frank A.
Phillips, president of the Lambert
vile National Bank, said that his in
stitution foated the school bonds
without profit.
Commissioner Foltz, who s in
charge of the streets, said that some
thing must be done with the York
street hill, and that he had consulted
various out-of-town engineers, in
GLIDING City Engineer Abram Swan,
Jr., of Trenton, who made an in
spection and recommended a series
of drains all the way up the hill.
This, together wi t h resurfacing,
would probably cost about $500,
which some claim is too much to
spend on this particular road. Mr..
FoItz also said that Thomas w.
Mitchell, the collector of garbage, is
looking after the street work. had
done much in the way of cleaning
sewers and repairs that did not make
any particular showing. but was
vitality necessary.
Cottage Hills neglect came in
for a share of discussion, and former
City Clerk James H. Reynolds said
that attempts were made to indict
the street commissioner at one time,
when the condition of the Swan
street hill was not nearly as bad as
at present. The lack of fire pro-
lection for that section was also con-
sidered, and the commissioners said
that they were investigating methods
