AVOID SICKNESS
FROM DRINKING
IMPURE WATER

The old idea concerning soda wa
tiers has been thoroughly exploded.
(Pop-as they used to call it-and
what most of it was years ago. But
the stringent food laws of today have
happily made a big improvement in
the manufacture of soft drinks, and
today, instead of being harmful, are
in lots of cases beneficial to the hu-
man system.
First: The gas in the water has
a tendency to keep the drinks in
good condition, and also to kill off
any germs that might be lurking in
the water; also they are not only
pleasant foods ION account of the
sugar used in their MANUFACTURER and
refresh and quench the thirst; but are
of much Importance from a dietetic
standpoint, al the gas promotes a
secretion of digestive juices.
The %carbonated water when taken
on ar empty stomach, not only dis
solve mucus, but they CLEAN the
mucus membrane from the stomach.
If, because of catarrh of the stomach,
there be an excessive formation of
acid, then the proper degree of acidi-
ty is obtained by partial combination
and in this way digestion is assist
ed. If a quantity (the exact amount
is immaterial) of table salt is added to
the carbonated sodas, the water there
by becomes more digestible.
Second: Sugar, which forms a
good share of soda waters, is a good
muscle builder, and is easily absorbed
by the blood, which makes it a very
important food.
Third: Other ingredients added,
such as flavors and colors are alb
solutely non-injurious and wholesome.
We do not buy the cheapest 'ex-
tracts and other raw material used
in the manufacture of our drinks,
but spare no expense in getting the
best money can buy, hence you are
assured of drinks that cannot be
made better anywhere, and for a de-
l%icious, true fruit flavor, our drinks
are unexcelled.

AT ! 81! RS; GERMANS
!ENissGiqFal Powers Attention Called TO
louifages Committed in French Ter
ritory by Retreating Teuton.

Paris. March 26-The French Gov
eminent has charged its representa-
f3ites in neutral countries to protest
against "acts of barbarism and deVas-
tation on the part Of the Germans
| in territory evacuated by them in
Northern France, The full text of the
note, which is signed by Premier Rib
OF, follows:
"The Government of the repub-
lie now is gathering the elements OF
protests which it intends sending to
neutral governments against acts OF
barbarism and devastation commit
ted by the Germans in French terri
tory which they are evacuating ny
retreating.
cat this time, / ask you to make
known to the government to which
Won are accredited that we intend to
denounce before universal judgment
the unqualifable acts INDUCED in ny
the German authorities. No motive
demanded by military necessities can
justify the systematic devastation OF
inublic monuments, artistic and his
torical, as we'll as public property, ac-
jcompaned by violence against per-
sons. Cities and villages in their en-
tirety have been pillaged, burned and
destroyed; private homes stripped OF
all furniture, which the enemy has
carried off; fruit trees have been torn
Iup or rendered useless for future pro-
Iduction; streams and wells have been
poisoned. The inhabitants relatively
few in number, who have not been re-
moved have been left with minimum
of rations, while the enemy seized
stocks supplied by the neutral revic'
tualizing commission that were des'
tined for the civil population.
"You will point out that this con-
Germs not acts destined to hinder the
Generations of our armies, but OF de-
vastation having no connection with
this object, and having for its pur'
pose the ruin for years to come OF
ono of the most fertile regions o.

"The civilized world can only re-
volt against this conduct on the pa1'
of a nation which wanted to impose
it's culture on it, but which reveals
itself once again as quite close tc
barbarism still and, in a rage OF
disappointed ambition, tramp'es on
the most sacred right of humanity.
