DANGER SIGNAL.

II the fire bell should ring would
you run and stop it or go and help to
put out the fire? 1t is much the
same way with a cough. A cough
is danger signal as much as a fire
bell. You should no more try to
suppress it than to stop fire bell
when it is ringing, but should cure
the disease that causes the coughing.
This can nearly always be done by
taking Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
Many have used it with the most
beneficial results. 1t is especially
valuable for persistent coughs that
so often follows bad cold or an at
tack Of the grip. Mrs. Thomas
Beeching, Andrews, Ind, writes:
During the winter my husband
takes cold easily and coughs and

edy is the best medicine for beraking

Cnbmit Proof Of Cooperation
After Watt|es Expresses In
patience With Excuses for
Not Signing Pledges.

Federated club women OF Nebras ia
will not have the stigma of disloyalty
attached to their name.
When Gurdon w. Wattles, food adj
ministrator, expressed his impatience
with trivial excuses made for not sign
ing food pledges, at a meeting Of the
Omaha Woman's club at the Fon-
tenelIe, Monday. Mrs. NJ. d. Cameron,
recording secretary of the Nebraska
Federation of Women's Clubs, walked
across the meeting hall and extended
her hand to Mr.. Wattles, in token of
the loyalty of the club women to the
federal government. Then she read
patriotic resolutions adopted by the
convention in Omaha last week.
Mr.. Wattles had construed state:
ments made by Mrs. John Shaker,
Hastings, clubwoman, in an exclusive
interview in The Bee, to mean that
federated club women of Nebraska
would not conserve food until men
gave up tobacco. Il am out of patience
with people who put obstacles in the
way of patriotic work." said Mr..
Wattles.
Later Mr.. Wattles conceded that he
might have misunderstood Mrs.
Shaker.
Let Men Sign. Too.
Mr.. Wattles urged men to sign food
pledge cards, since some women de-
clare men in their households stand
in the way of conserving food. Let
there be no discord in this. There is
enough across the water" he said.

Germans Extend Withdrawal
Movement to Include Force
Recently Landed on Wer-
der Peninsula.
lBy Associated Press.l

On the northern Russian front the
Germans have extended their with
drawal to include the force that re-
Gently was. landed on the Werder
peninsula after the capture OF Oesel
and Moon islands, at the entrance to
the Gulf of Riga.
This landing was viewed at the time
as a threat against Reval, the Rus
sian naval base on the Gulf of Fin
land, and as a possible prelude to
even more extensive land operations
by the Germans in the direction OF
Petrograd.
The withdrawal leaves the GerI
mans without a ioothold on the ES-
thonian coast, attempts by them to
follow up the original landing by put =
ting troops ashore at points both
north and south of the peninsula hav-
ing failed, according to the Russian
reports.
There has been somewhat preva-
lent assumption, however, that there
was never any intention by the Ger
mans to push their Riga operation
much beyond the naval stage this fall,
the view being that the threat against
the Gulf of Finland may well have
been a diversion for political effect
in RUSSIA or to distract attention from
operations in preparation elsewhere.
The artillery battle is being con
tinued in Flanders and in sections OF
the Aisne front and the Verdun re-
gion. In the last named the Ger
mans attacked spiritedly last night
between Chaum wood and the Bezon-
vaux, cas- of the Meuse, and won
something more than 500 yards OF
advanced trenches. The French in an
immediate counter attack recaptured

Oct. ,29.-The first German prisoner
of war taken by the American expe-
ditionary forces died today in an
American field hospital, having been
shot when he encountered an Amer
ican patrol in No Mans Land in front
of the American trenches.
He, with another German, was dis
covered Saturday night by the patrol
and was called upon to halt. The Ger
mans ran; the patrol fred and one
of the enemy was hit. The prisoner
was removed to field hospital where
the combined efforts of several sur
geons failed to save his life.
Lost Way in Dark.
The prisoner was mail carrier and
letters of some value were found on
him. He explained his presence near
the American trenches saying he had
lost his way in the dark. He declared
that the German soldiers did not
know that Americans were on the
front or in France, the officers telling
them nothing.
American batteries are continuing
to shell the German lines at regular
intervals, the enemy following similar
tactics.
No further official communique has
been issued, but there has been
no special infantry activity.
Snow that fell last night interfered
with all operations.
