 REJECT THIS ARDENT LOVER.
Former DiSlilled His Red Hair and the Latter Said His Feet Were
 Defective So Refuse Him.

Chicago, Dec. 29.-Refused by his sweetheart because he is red headed and rejected by his country because of defective feet, is the unusual sit uation in which Albert P. Legge of Waukegan, Ill.,, finds himself.
 After resolving not to dye his ti- tan locks, this disappointed lover today madly sought the excitement and danger of a military career by applying for enlistment at the Unit ed States Marine Corps recruiting station here.
 Following a recital of his sweet hearts refusal, Legge said to Re- cruiting Sergeant Putnam:
 If I must die, prefer to do 1t fof my country. I've heard that the marines are first to go when trouble threatens, and 1 want to set right into action"
 Your legs are in good condition. Legge," he was told after examina- ton by the doctor, but have been standing on them too much the arches of your feet are too low to withstand service hiking, therefore. We can't take you

Illinois Women Would Have Parent

Chicago, Dec. 2S.-A law in Che eyes of which percentage would con- stitute marriage, the better protec- ton by law of ilhgitimate children and the requirement of the rigid physical examination of the con- tracting parties before the issuance of marriage licenses were among the reforms advocated by speakers at the opening session of the Illinois Woman's Legislation Congress here today.

National Park in Ozarks.

A movement of large importance to the state is the one by Congress- man Oldfleld for a national park in the Ozarks. This bulks large in possibilities. Arkansas has the fin est scenery in the world. It ought to be more popular with tourists than Colorado or Yellowstone Park. IL is not, because we have no con- certed effort to make the Ozarks at tractiVe. If the government will set aside a park it will go further and make roads through it. What peo- pie want Is the preservation of seen cry in it's wild state Man has done mighty fine things but nature has done more and better.

WORSE THAN POISON GAS.
French Newspaper Says Germans
 Plotted to Use Germs as War Aid.

From The Kansas City Star.
 Le Journal, Paris newspaper, re- cently published an article by Hen ny Darby it's Bucharest correspon- dent charging the Germans with a new form of frightfulness. Accord ing to this article the Rumaniau prefect of police soon after Ruman- ia declared war found hidden at the German legation many packages of deadly germs, which, according to Le Journals inference, the Germans planned to loose upon the Rumanian population in the event. of a Ger man defeat.
 Part of the disease germs were in- tended for humans, others for cat- tie and horses. Packages of high explosives, the Paris newspaper says, also were found at the German legation.

REV. A. H. SYKES
 DISCUSSES HIS
 WIPES TROUBLE
Minister of the Gospel Thinks It His Duty tO Make Statement
 About Wonderful Chanae.

IL is seldom, indeed, that men of prominence, especially ministers of the gospel, willingly express their indebtedness publicly to a propri- etary medicine. However, when medicine obtains that singular pur- lty and efficiency that is shown by the uniform preparation, Tanac, statements from our best citizens are to be considered thoroughly commensurate with the good that is actually being accomplished.
 Rev. A. II. Sykes. Pastor of the Watkins Park Presbyterian Chursh. Nashville, Tenn prominent not only as minister of the gospel, but pop ular as a man and citizen who has been true Co his friends and every trust ever reposed in him, said re- cently;
 For the past ten months Mrs Sykes has been in very delicate health, suffering from bad stomach and kidney troubles which gradu- ally developed into a general ner- Nous breakdown, At times her con dition became alarming. and I ire quently sought medical advice, but nothing we could do for her seemed to bring relief.
 Tn fact, she suffered so long and so much that feel 1t my duty to let everyone know what this medi- cine has done for her. For several months her condition was such that she had Go remain in bed, and as a last resort decided to let her try Tanlac.
 T am a conservative man and have always been skeptical regard ing the use of proprietary medi- Cines, but this ease has certainly proved an exception am now firmly convinced that Tanlac is a medicine of great power and extra ordinary merit. I do not think I have ever seen anything to give such prompt results. Mrs Sykes had taken only twO-thirds of a bot tie of this medicine when we began tO notice a marked improvement in her condition. In less than a week from the time she began taking it she was able to sit up and is to- day able to help with the house. hold duties Before she began talk ing Tanlac she had fearful pains in her side and suffered constantly from soured stomach and indiges- tion and was intensely nervous. These distressing symptonms I am thankful to say, have entirely dis appeared her appetite has returned and she seems to relish everything she eats. She sleeps better and is gaining strength and flesh rapidly, l think it only question of a short time until her health is fully re- stored

DUTCH SOCIALISTS ANXIOUS FOR PEACE
Among Many Parties and Societies in Netherlands Sending Wishes of Success to Wilson in His Ac-
 tiOns FavOring Peace

The Hague, Dec. 28.-A flood of cablegrams is being sent to Presi- dent Wilson by the trade unions, so- cial welfare societies, religious bo- dies Of all denominations and other organizations, wishing him success in what they regard as his effort to bring about peace. The Dutch So- cialist party sent the following mes sage to the President yesterday:
 The Dutch Socialist party SUD- ports, in the strongest way, your ini- tiative in favor of peace and appeals to the belligerent powers to accept your proposal
 The newspapers in Voluminous articles regard the situation rather hopefully, with the exception of the anti-German Telegraaf, which fav- 'ors a war to the finish and sneers at Germany's answer, using the words. If 1t can be called an answer" The Telegraaf says that the central powers are grateful to President Wilson, which is comprehensible in- asmuch as his idea of durable peace is to arrange things so as to avoid having to give up the territory they have grasped."
 Peace General Feeling.
 The general feeling is, perhaps, best expressed by the pacifst, Neuews Van Den Dag, which says:
 NO one will be under any illusion about speedy meeting of peace del- egates at The Hague or elsewhere to begin discussions, altho the hope re- mains that this mountain of talk will bring forth more than a mouse and that from now on the voice of peace will never be stilled."

 Practically all our misfortunes are the results of former vices.
 The will force is the personal mo- tive power which determines every act.

 Never sheer at anybody, for the sheer is the devils way of laughing at folks.

TO FAVOR B. & L. ASSOCIATIONS
Arkansas Blue Sky" Department
 Would Encourage Thrift.

Special to The Star
 Little Rock, Dec. 2S.-Soon after the first of the year, the State Bank Commission. thru it's Blue Sky De partment, of which W. T. Maxwell is the head, will undertake an ac- tive campaign for popularizins the building and loan association as a thrift proposition in the smaller towns of the state.
 When We teach thrift said Mr. Maxwell, we should provide a means for its existence. The young men and women on a salary, and men in business, if given the means of saving by small monthly deposits, would soon accumulate a compe- tence. But the majority have no institutions. aside from the banks, that encourage small savings. There are only forty-two building and loan associations in the state, and half of them are in Little Rock. Nashville is the only one of the smaller towns in the state that has an association, and it is doing a great deal of good. Evt'y town of 300 population and over should sup port a building and loan associa- ton
 From reports just completed for thirty-eight of the associations, four not having reported it appears that the aggregate assets are Si0,17l,- 007.64 There is investment stock sold and outstanding amounting to SS. .252, ,453.32 The assets of the as sociation are invested as follows: Tn real estate mortgages.
