Cauqht the Post.

Pat was walking along the road, when, hearing a whir, he looked back, and saw Larry flying fast and furious on bicycle.
 Hi! wait a minute" shouted Pat. T want to spake to you"
 T can't. I'm in q hurry. I want to catch the post" cried Larry, flying by.
 Suddenly the bicycle swerved, and crashed into a telegraph pole in the roadside, and Larry and the bike lay in a helpless tangle. As Pat came on, Larry was extricating himself from the wire puzzle.

What tha Doctor Knows
KIDNEYS MUST BE RIGHT TO
 INSURE HEALTH.

Few people realize to what extent their health depends upon the condition of the kidneys.
 The physician in nearly all cases of serious illness, makes a chemical analy- sis of the patients urine. He knows that unless the kidneys are doing their work properly, the other organs cannot readily be brought back to health and strength.
 When the kidneys are neglected or abused in any way, serious results are sure to follow. According to health sta- tistics, Bright's Disease, which is really an advanced form of kidney trouble, caused nearly ten thousand deaths in one year, in the State of New York alone. Therefore, it is particularly necessary to pay more attention to the health of these important organs.
 An ideal herbal compound that has had remarkable success as a kidney remedy is Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great kidney, liver and bladder remedy.
 The mild and healing influence of this preparation, in most cases, is soon real ized, according to sworn statements and verified testimony of those who have used the remedy.
 When your kidneys require attention, get Swamp Root at once from any phar- macy. It is sold by every druggist in bottles of two sizes-50c and Sl.0O.
 However, if you wish first to test this great preparation send ten cents to Dr. Kilmer & Co.,, Binghamton, N. Y, for sample bottle. When writing be sure and mention this paper. Adv.

PLOT FEAR
Salvador Has Olive Branch for
All Concerned.
Minister Brands German Con
spiracy as Ridiculous.

Washington. March 10.-Reports
that Salvador had been involved by
German agents in enterprises inimical
to the interests of the United States
and of Guatemala were declared pre-
posterous by the Salvadorean minister
DR. Rafael Zaldivar, in statement
issued today.
THE people and government of Ell
Salvador" the statement said, are
now and have always been particularly
friendly with Guatemala and recent
reports to the contrary are absurd
That German spies or political agents
are strong enough in my country to
bring about such a reversal OF It's
traditional friendship with Guatemala
or involve it in hostilities with that or
any other country, is prepoSterouS-
Germans residing in FL Salvador could
be counted on the fingers of one s
hands and their influence nationally
or locally is nil.
I'm Guatemala on the other hand
many of the largest coffee and other
properties are owned by Germans and
it may be said that German influence
is greater in that country than in any
other Central American republic. But
in neither case or elsewhere in Central
America is it at all probable that
German gold could seduce the govern
ments-certainly not the people-to
embroil themselves to the injury of
other or the great and good friend to
the north of us-the United States.
Evidence of Friendship.
-'El Salvador has just given the
best possible evidence of her peaceful
and law-abiding predictions by hav-
ing recourse to the Central American
court of justice for a sediment of her
protTacted diplomatic controversy with
her neighbor, Nicaragua, relating to
the grant by the latter to the United
States of a naval base in the Bay of
Fonseca which is territorial water
owned Jointly with my country-rat tn
er than proceed to open hostilities over
the violation of its sovereign rights.
My government has just cabled me
that the Central American court has
rendered its decision in favor of Ell
Salvador, restraining Nicaragua from
proceeding further under the provi-
sions of the Bryan-Chamorro treaty
that relate to the naval base in Fon-
:eca bay"

ENOUGH FINE WORDS
Prussian Deputy Bitterly Scores Ger
man Govt BE ore the Diet.

The Hague, March 10.-Further ex-
tracts from the speech from the So
cialist deputy, Herr Hofer, during the
sensational food debate in the Prus-
sian diet are printed in the Berlin
Norwaerts. The Vorwaerts quotes
Herr Hofer as saying:
The government vacillates between
fear of the agrarians and fear of the
masses like d reed in the wind. .
If you insist on carrying on war you
must see that the people are adequate
~ fed. Does it not suffice for
the government to incur the hatred
of the whole world or do they also
want revolution at home? The people
have been fed on tine words long
enough. we demand deeds"
The Norwaerts says that Herr Hofer
was frequently cheered. Elsewhere
the paper says that it has latterly re-
ceived numerous complaints of the
poor quality and preparation of the
food supplied in the popular food
kitchens at midday and declares that
the evening meals in these places are
unfit for consumption. The Vorwaerts
asks what will be the condition in
summer if this is the case in the pres
ent cold weather
