BOLSHEv|K TRY
TO Get HARMONY

LONDON, Dec. 26.-Petrograd dis
patches report that attempts are be-
ing made by the Boishevik commits
saries to negotiate with the L Karain-
ians for settlement Of the differences
which have arisen, and it is also re-
ported that the authorities Of the new
Ukrainian government are ready TO
accept proposals looking toward
peaceful arrangement
The movement for harmony is at
tributed by the correspondent of the
Times to the fact that the growing
dangers of the situation are being
recognized TO an increasing extent by
the Bolsheviki. For the same reason,
he says, they are believed TO be in
clined to modify their attitude of hos
tility toward the constituent assem-
bly,, which is likely to met within q
week
Concurrently with these statements
appear numerous further reports of
military activities on the part of the
Ukrainians and Cossacks, and of the
sending of more Bolshevik troops
southwark to oppose the Ukrainians.
There are disconnected rumors OF
further fighting. but apparently there
have been no hostilities on a large
scale.

Doctors Are
Boosting II

Still the good work goes on, soon
there will not be any more tired, ner-
vous people In our city.
This is caused largely by the wide
spread use of Phosphated Iron, the
new tonic and nerve bracer that has
sprung into instant popularity with
the medical world.
Phosphated Iron will help any run
down, nervous condition almost in1me-
diately. 1t will put fresh iron in the
blood the phosphates taking hold of
the nerve centers and bracing them
up. You will eat better, sleep better
and get up in the morning feeling like
doing things; you will feel the old
time vim and snap of youth surging
through your veins; you will tackle
the days work with confidence and a
smile.
Science has taught Us that when we
have enough Iron and Phosphorus in
the blood and nerves we are healthy;
that almost all conditions Of i'll health
and nervousness are due to the lack Of
Iron or Phosphorus. Phosphated Iron
rarely fails to supply the needed
amount of both.
Use. Phosphated Iron one week and
you will forget you were ever nervous,
tired out and run down, you can feel
it taking hold.
Special Notice.-To insure physi
clans and their patients receiving the
genuine Phosphated Iron we have put
up in capsules only. so do not allow
dealers to substitute pills or tablets;
insist on the genuine, in capsules only.

SOME JOY LEFT IN LIFE

tChicago's health commissioner has
just issued the ultimatum that kissing
is o. k and should be encouraged.)
And the doctors scientific,
With their vhiskers most terrific,
And their long hair amply larded,
See their theory discarded.
They have been repudiated
For authority has stated
In a manner most emphatic
That their views are most cratic;
That the ladies and the misses
Can indulge in all the kisses
That their inclinations call for.
'Tis a right they would risk all for
No war portions, but full measure.
'Tis the only untaxed pleasure.
Lid is off, Gosh. how we dread it;
But it's right-the Boss has said it.
And throughout our land the kissing
Sounds like locomotives kissing.
And at last we've saved the nation
Made il safe for OSCILLATION.
