PROGRESS OF THE WAR.

with the exception of recent adj
vance by the Germans against the
Russians across frozen marshes in the
Riga district and some activity in
Rumanla, a lull has obtained on all
the European battle fronts for the
past several weeks.
Much interest has attached to
tentative peace overtures in which
Germany took the initiative, and
President Wilson has continued his
EFFORTS to secure hearing from All
tle oeillgerent nations in the interest
VI epdlng the war. In the course of
MS utterances the president has oh
S rived that neither side can obtain
complete victory.
New Interest is now aroused Nv the
report that Germany has declared

The Change in Macbeth's Character.

The Change In Macbeth's Character.
When we first see Macbeth, he is a
brave and loyal general. His loyalty
to the king, however, must have been
merely superficial, for the first idea of
greatness which came into his mind
changed his policy from loyalty to
treachery. 1t may truly be called
''policy" for he thought of it, in such
terms. He was not conscientiousb
loyal.
Macbeth hesitated at taking the
ilnal step. If he had been left to
himself, he would merely have allow
ed chance to take Its course, for, as
he said, IF chance will have me king
why, chance may crown me, without
my STIR" 1t took stronger will
than his to spur him on The means
of attaining the end could not have
restrained him, it was rather the
consequences which he feared. lis
attitude towards crime was well
summed up by Lady Macbeth, "Thus
thou must do, If thou have it; and
that which rather thou dost fear TO
do, than wisheSt should he undone."
As Macbeth progressed In erin
his few moral convictions were
smothered; he piled crime upon crime
with little conjunction.
The only change which really took
place In his character was a growing
ooldness and recklessness, and lack |
OF fear of consequences. The quail
Ties of his character were merely led |
out by opportunities aud environment. |
The evil which had been dormant 10 |
him was aroused. 1t Is time that he
was not all inhuman, but, as has been
mentioned before, his good QUALITIES
were so weak that they were over
come by other desires and by anothers
will. Macbeth, as Thane of Glamies,
was not the true Macbeth; the true
Macbeth was King Macbeth.

Taylor May Take
Stecher's Place in
Bout With Plestina

Pete Loeb, manager Of Marin
Plestina, the big Omaha heavyweight,
is trying to make arrangements to
substitute Jack Taylor of Lincoln,
former Canadian champion, for Joe
Stecher, who was scheduled to meet
Plestina here April 27.
Just before the Stecher- Caddock
match Stecher agreed to wrestle Pies
tina in Omaha April II and Loeb
even went so far as to engage the
Auditorium for that night. When
Stecher lost he called the bout off,
even though Loeb and Plestina were
willing to go through with it.
Then Loeb approached Earl Cad
dock, but could not come to an agree
ment with the new champ.
But Taylor, it is believed, will meet
Plestina. These grapplers were
matched once before, but a hitch
came in the agreement and it was
called off. This time it is thought
they will be brought together.
Plestina is Omaha's best bet. Tay-
Tor is Lincoln's entrant for the cham
pionship and together they repre-
sent Nebraska's challengers since
Stecher was vanquished. Both Pies
tina and Taylor stand ready to meet
Caddock. Both have challenged him.
A match between the, two would be
a good elimination contest.

Chris Jordan Matched
To Battle Fred Kramer

The bigger they are the harder they
fall. Thus quoth Chris Jordan,
Omaha's representative among the
l5S-pound wrestlers, yesterday when
he announced he had been matched
to wrestle Fred Kramer, who only
weighs 1876 pounds, at Fullerton,
Neb., for 500 side. The twenty
five or thirty pounds he gives away
in weight fails to bother Jordan in
the least and he declares he will put
the fxings to Mr.. Kramer.
Jordan is these days finding him
self in the same plight other wres-
tiers who are just little bit too
good are finding themselves. He
can't get any middleweights to meet
him and has to go out Of his class
to get matches.

By Rubbing with Lini-
ments and Ointments

If you are one of the many
thousand victims of torturing
Rheumatism, make up your
mind today that you will aban-
don your efforts to rub the dis
ease away with liniments, To-
tons, ointments and local ap.
plications. Such treatment by
itself is not only futile and de-
void of results, but is a waste of
time, during which the disease
is getting a firmer hold on your
system.
Rheumatism is a stubborn
disease. 1t Is not on the sur
face, therefore you must moi
expect to be able to cure it with
remedies applied to the sur.
face. No one ever yet effected
a permanent cure in this way,
so why should you continue to
suffer while relying upon treat.
ment that has failed in thou
sands of cases?
The experience of others at.
flicted with Rheumatism is
your best guide, and by follow
ing their advice you can not
only save yourself untold suf-
fering, but rid yourself of a
disease that will eventually
wreck your body and leave you
helpless. Almost every victim
of Rheumatism has practically
the same experience. They are
so impressed with the pains and
suffering of the disease, and
are so anxious to get rid of
them that they have treated
the pains alone, and overlook
ed their cause. They have rub
bed with liniments, lotions and
ointments in an effort to get
temporary relief, with no
chance of doing themselves
any permanent good.
Such was the experience of
Mr.. Caspus Bib, of 2424 Tenth
Ave-, Bessemer, Ala, who
writes to tell how he found re-
lief from this terrible afflic-
ton. He says:

Any physician will tell you
that Rheumatism is a deep
seated blood disease. The pain
is not the disease itself, but
merely a symptom-nature's
warning to you that you have
been attacked. The only intel
ligent treatment, therefore, is
through the blood; treatment
directed toward eliminating the
disease germs from the blood.
! For years nearly all the pre-
scriptions used by the medical
profession were those contain
ing iodide of potash or mer-
curial substances, but in nearly
every case these minerals are
more injurious to the system
than the disease itself.
One reason why S. S. S. is so
successful in the treatment of
Rheumatism and other blood
disorders is the fact that it is a
purely vegetable remedy, being
made from roots and herbs
gathered direct from the for
ests. 1t contains not a particle
of mineral substance, and acts
by driving all disease germs
from the blood and cleansing it
of all impurities. S. S. S. has
been on the market for fifty
years, and every druggist has
sold it ever since he has been in
business. 1t is sold under an
absolute guarantee that it is
purely vegetable.
Our medical department is
maintained for the benefit of
the afflicted, and if you will
write fully about your case you
will be given complete advice
as to the treatment necessary
for your individual case, for
which no charge is made. Ad-

Stecher Had More
Than Time Enough
To Return to Ring

That Joe Stecher was allowed from
twenty-three to twenty-five minutes at
least in which to return to the ring
for the third and deciding fall in his
match with Earl Caddock, is the as
sertion made by Bert Murphy, who
otiiciated as timekeeper and kept the
clock on the rest period
Following the award of the bout
and the championship to Earl Cad
dock. reports that Stecher was only
given seven minutes to return began
to circulate. 1t was said that seven
minutes after Caddock had touched
Stecher's shoulders to the mat for
the second fall, that Gotch and Cad
dock supporters called upon the
referee to give the bout to the Iowan
because Stecher had not appeared,
and that the referee did it.
The report gained circulation
quickly and was heard on all sides
Murphy declares it was eighteen
minutes, three minutes longer than the
allotted period, before the timekeep-
crs notified the referee that the rest
period was up. Then it was five or
six minutes at least before Sherman
awarded the bout.
Somebody asked us to call the
period up at twelve minutes" said
Murphy, but we refused. We didn't
even call it at fifteen minutes, but
waited until eighteen minutes were
up. 1t was at least five or six min
utes after that, making !, total time
of twenty-three to twenty-five min
utes, before the referee awarded the
match. Gene Melady said to give
Stecher all night to come out again il
he wanted it, but we wanted to stick
to the rules, so we told the referee
at the end of eighteen minutes"

mored that Witt will soon come to
