SYRUP Of FIGS FOR
A CH|LD'S BOWELS
1t is cruel to force nauSeating,
harsh physic into a
sick child.

Look back at your childhood Gays.
Remember the dose" mother insisted
on-castor oil, calomel, cathartics.
How you hated them, how you fought
against taking them.
With our children it's different.
Mothers who cling to the old form Of
physic simply don't realize what they
do. The children's revolt is well-found-
ed Their tender little "insides" are
injured by them.
II your childs stomach, liver and
bowels need cleansing, give only deli
cious California Syrup of Figs" Its
action is positive, but gentle. Millions
Of mothers keep this harmless fruit
laxative" handy; they know children
love to take it; that 1t never fails to
clean the liver and bowels and sweet
en- the stomach, and that a teaspoonful
given today saves a sick child tomor-
row.
Ask at the store for 50-cent bottle
of California Syrup of Figs" which
has full directions for babies, children
Of all ages and for grown-ups plainly
on each bottle. Adv.

Needed Provender.

That rolling stone among authors,
Harry de Windt, tells the following
good story of his adventures on the
Yukon:
One day he and partner" he had
picked up in Dawson were going on a
trip in midwinter. The cold was, Of
course, intense.
Just as they were on the point Of
starting, his companion dumped a
number of hard, sharp-pointed articles
in the sleigh, pitching them rather
unceremoniOusly on top of a sack Of
oatmeal.
look here" protested De Windt,
don't put those tent pegs on the oat-
meal. They'll poke their points through
the bag and there'll be leak"
''These amt tent pegs" explained
the other, rather scornfully; they're
beefsteaks."
And so they were, cut and ready for
use on the line of march.

Would Get Him Out.

A school-inspector, who was examin-
ing class of boys in arithmetic, set
the following question:
''If a cat fell into bOttomless pit,
and climbed up two feet for every
three it fell, how long would it take to
get out?"
This proved a regular puzzler to the
lads. but one little fellow went at the
problem with will, and covered both
sides Of his slate with calculations.
"Here!" exclaimed the inspector, as
he noticed him hard at work. "StOp
doing that. Haven't you the sense to
see that the cat couldn't possibly get
out?"
"Oh, yes, he could, sir" replied the
boy, brightly. "If you'll only give me
time I'll bring him out at Australia"

WAITS IN SILENT GRIEF
FOR NEWS OF LOVED ONES
Plight of BereaVed EneIishman in New
York Brings Home to Watchers
Tragedy of New Warfare.

New YOrk.-It took the silent grief
of John NJ. Little, Englishman, to bring
keenly home to the officials and clerks
Of the Anchor line offices the loss of
the California, one of the liners sunk
as result of Germany's new subma-
rine campaign.
Modestly, almost di1iidently, Little, a
spare, slight man, asked for news of
his wife and four children, steerage
passengers. The latest cable, he was
told, reported his wife and one child
missing-the others had been saved.
"But the wife and baby" he pleaded.
Cant you give me word of hope?'
! No one dared reply. Tears welled
from Little's eyes and rolled unre-
strainedly down his cheeks. The bus
tllng activity stopped and heads were
bowed.
Strengthening himself with an effort
Little squared his shoulders and
walked away, the tears still stream
ing down his face.
Not word was uttered as the work
of the busy office was resumed.

Arizona MightieSt of
All Fighting Vessels.

The Arizona, the newest addi-
ton to the United States battle
ship division, not only is the big
gest of Uncle Sans sea fighters.
but no other naval power has a
fighting vessel that can reach it
in size.
1t is larger by 200 tons that the
Pennsylvania, the flagship of
Admiral Mayo, Of which it is a
sister ship.
1t will be a damaging foe for
an enemy to meet. Its twelve IL
inch guns fire a broadside of 20
600 pounds of steel, which can
be directed accurately at mark
15 miles distant. The brOadside
is 5000 pounds more than the
combined brOadsides of the Kan
Sas, Vermont and New Hamp-
shire, ships that have been
placed in the reserve fleet.
The displacement of the Ari-
zOna is 31,6O0 tons. 1t is pro-
PEELED by oil-burning engines,
which drive it at speed averag-
ing 20 knots an hour.

Washington, Feb. S.-President Will

behind him when he says the word
that will cause congress to declare
war.
1t is for this reason that the insist
ence of the administration is that the
overt act which brings war shall be
one Of clear-cut hostility and of I'M
questioned violation Of our rights.
1t can be said that the accumula-

war department has decided aru mr.
nOunced that the appointment 10 vol
unteer commissions will be made
from those classes of our citizens who
have had such experience, and that
from those C'Ssses the selections will
be made in the following order:
N(A)-PersOns who have had expert
ence as commissioned officers in the
regular army of the United States and
ex-OfIicers of volunteers of proved ex-
perience and efficiency.
B)-NOn-cOmmissiOned officers of
experience in the regular army.
(C)-PersOns who have had expert
ence as officers in the militia.
D)-PersOns who have qualified
according to law under prescribed ex-
aminatiOnS to test their fitness t.
command and control men in the tielO.
(E)-Graduates of educational :n-
stitutiOns of military standing to
which regular army officers are de-
tailed as professors of military science
under the law.
F)-ShOuld the necessary number
of volunteer officers required not be
furnished from the above classes, the
war department will give civilians
lacking in actual military experience
an opportunity to appear for eXamina-
ton to test their fitness for commits
sions, before boards which the war de-
partment proposes to create in the
several states.
Begin Training at Once.
Under the caption Training Of Vol
unteers" the war college pamphlet
reads:
"The training of volunteer troops
must begin without delay after their
induction into the service. No time
must be lost. 1t should begin at the
company rendezvous, without waiting
for complete mobilization. Under our
traditional policy of relying princi-
pally for defense upon citizen SOL
diers, the larger part of our land
forces will not be fully trained on the
outbreak of war. 1t is more than
probable that we shall have to employ
some of them with little or no train
ing as soon as they can be assembled
in suitable units.
"The amount and character of the
training will at first be directly pro-
pOrtiOnal to the time consumed, pro-
vided a rational scheme be followed.
| How much time will be available it
is impossible to predict. 1t is reason
able to assume, however, that in the
event of war with an Oversea enemy
it will be the time required for our
enemy to establish at least a partial
control of the sea sufficient to open
the way for landing of expeditionary
! forces.
"Any system of training however,
good in itself, will fail to bring the de-
sired results unless there are avail
able a sufficient number of trained in
| structOrs. officers and nOncommiS-
stoned officers. The blind cannot lead
the blind"
Referring to the mobilization of the
volunteer armies, the war college
points out that all points of mobiIlza-
ton have been selected, one in each
state of the Union, and that these pre-
liminary arrangements have been ap-
proved by both the federal and state
authorities. These plans provide for
the necessary buildings, for water sup
ply, and all other essential needs
which will arise.

ATTRACTION AT THE PAl ACE TONIGHT

William Courtenay and Lucille Lee
 Stewart work very hard in the Vita
 graph five-part feature, entitled "The
 Ninety and Nine" which is q screen adaptation from the well-known stage
 success by Ramsey Morris.
 In this production, which is the at traction at the Palace theatre tonight,
 both MT. Courtenay and Miss Stewart drive locomotive through a burning forest These scenes could not be omitted without the great punch of the story being lost, but neither star ob- jected and preparations were made for their filming
 For the half hour in which it took to photograph these scenes, dainty Lu- cile became fireman and worked away shoveling the coal into the fur | mace while Mir. Courtenay acted as en- gineer. In some instances when they are in the thick of the forest fire smoke they hardly disccrnibIe, hut when their engine comes to a clearing their faces may be seen streaked with soot and smoke.
 It was no easy task to run this huge locomotive over burning bridges through rows of fiery trees and into dense smoke. but both stars took it as matter of course and went through their scenes without a murmur.

GREEk MONK NOW A MOVIE ACTOR,

It is long step from a monastery to a movns-picture studio At first thought it is impossible to conceive of , even the remotest connection between the two. The duties of a monk of the Creek Church can hardly be said to resemble those of screen actor. In Iliodor, generally known as the mad monk of Russia, is found the rare com bnation of priest and actor. Iliodor. as nearly all the world knows by now was the principal opponent of Rasputin, the powerful monk who had the Royal Fam !, fly of Russia completely under his control So firmly did he have them in his clutches that they did not dare to act without his counsel or permission
 liodor exposed Rasputin's evil living and his schemes of self lf-advancement to the authorities in Russia but Ras- putin's influence at Court was too strong for him. The faith of the Czar and Czarina was pinioned on Rasputin and they could look upon him who spoke i'll Of him only as q traitor The result of Iliodor's accusations was thai he was banished for his pains.
 He came to this country where be and his wife took refuge in a little 'iai ieh nat lie hninedlately set about 10 expose the wrongs of Russia. and the intrigues of the Russian Court.
