 Tn secure this prize it is necessary .,.t young men enlist in the United Gates navy and serve one year as an risted man; he then becomes elig- bIe to apply for the examination, ,,ovided he is under twenty years of ace. The examination is strictly com- nottive and the best man wins. No appointment from Congressman is re- 
 mred and influence, political or atborwise. is of no help. Each boy stands on his own merits. The scope f the entrance examination is about eual to high school education. It k not necessary that boy have a bigh school education, however, as schools are maintained on all ships and stations where officers are de- tailed as tutors and where boys are prepared for examination.
 This is a much surer way of enter ing Annapolis than trying to secure an appointment from civil life. It will be born in mind that of all the men of the navy only about four thousand are of the proper age (un- der twenty which means that one out of every four hundred will secure the appointment, Also the vast majority of these four hundred have had no high school work, probably only a grammar school education, SO it can be seen that a boy with some high school work who is studious and am- bilious, has an excellent chance of securing this appointment. This chance can be more readily realized when it is remembered that before this legislation only about two hun dred and fifty a year entered An napOlis from the entire United States which includes millions of American youths
 For the man or boy, however, who has not the necessary qualifications for Annapolis the navy contains many opportunities also.

GERMANS AIM FOR PEACE UNREVEALED

Amsterdam Report Says Offer to Russia is Implied-Inter- peIations of Socialists and Conservatives Answered.

Berlin, May 15, via London-In one of the most vigorous and plain spoken speeches he has made before the Reichstag since the outbreak of the war, the imperial German chancellor today bulntly refused to enter into a discussion of Germany's peace aims as demanded in interpellations by the Conservatives and Socialists 0r. von Bethmann-Hollweg assertel th e called for Germany's specific pence programme, the announcement e which would at the present time not only be premature, but which it would be lifficult to formulate and also of no practical service to the nation in the present situation.
 While appreciating the passionate desire of all classes to know the gov ernment's view, the chancellor plainly declared that he would not permit himself to be swayed by pressure from any source and that he was not under the spell of any party or clique. The best interests of the na- tion, he believed, demanded that the reticence he had imposed on himself in the face of continuous clamor since December, 1915, should be observed until the moment was ripe. He was sure that such a course wold be in- dorsed uby the nation at large, which continued to rally around it's emperor, and would also meet the views of the majority of members of the Reichstag.
 The chancellor briefly reviewed the present military situation and Ger many's relations to the neutrals, in the course of which he warmly prais- ed the attitude adopted by Spain

to relieve her pain by rendering her
unconscious. My physician, who is q
good one, seemed to do very little
good. Rev. A. j. Foster, pastor Of
Shandon Baptist Church Of Columbia,

would be best to do 50 without delay.
In about three days after arriving at

and had gained her appetite She has

wonderful curative powers of the Shi-

years my wife has been a sufferer from
indigestion and nervous debility, and
her condition had reached such a stage
as to BATTLE the skill of our most emil
nent physicians. Her extreme nervous
ness and heart troubles at times were
alarming and she had become almost a

May she began using the Shivar Water,
which she has continued to this date
with most satisfactory results.

THE CRISIS


practically every man and woman
when their digestive or eiiminative or
gans, or both, fail to respond to drugs
prepared by human skill In fact drugs
seem to do them about much harm
as good for their systems rebel against
all drugs These are the cases which
physicians call stubborn" and
Chronic" for the reason that they
persist in spite Of drug treatment. L
DO not refer to incurable diseases such
as cancer and consumption, but to that
larger class Of functional disorders
which we meet every day, where the
organs of digestion and elimination are
impaired.
For this class of cases our best ply
sicians and our big city specialists send
their wealthy patients to the mineral
springs where. in the great majority OF
cases they are permanently restored
or decidedly benefited. But what about
the poor man who has not the money
or the busy man or woman who can
not spare the time to spend several
weeks or possibly months at q health
resort? Shall circumstances deny them
the restoration to health which Nature
has provided? Read my answer in tho

SUCCESS WITH SUDAN GRASS
Affords Hay Crop to Upland Farmer Equal in Value to Alfalfa on Bot
 tomland Farms.

Where other tame grasses cannot be grown Sudan grass can be used sue cessfully. Although the grass is pri- marily hay crop, tests from the standpoint of a pasture crop have been made by many persons and the results have been promising.
 Sudan grass will add thousands of dollars to the profits every year, since it will afford a hay crop to the upland farmer that will mean as much to him as alfalfa does to the bottom-land farmer. Experiments have shown that under normal conditions two crops can be depended upon. The yield is larger than that of millet, being from four to six tons an acre. Horses and cattle are fond of it and will leave almost any kind of roughage for Sudan grass. They clean up heads, blades and stalks,
 Where a seed crop is desired, the best practice seems tG be to let the first crop mature for seed and harvest, the second crop for hay. Planting is usually done three weeks later than corn in the same locality. One person reports that form planting June II he harvested the first crop the last week in August, making six tons to the acre. The second cutting was made October l, and a yield of two tons an acre was obtained. This particular crop was grown on bottom land
