acid in the system are entirely eradi-
Gated. A new remedy, called Anuric,
has been discovered by DR.. Pierce,
lithia. and is the cause of a drainage
outward Of the uric acid with which
it comes in contact within the body. It
will ward off backache, headache. and
the darling pains and aches of articular
or muscular rheumatism-of those dis
eases which are caused by too much
uric acid, such as govt, asthma, sciatica.
renal calculus. Anuric prolongs life
because old people usually suffer from
hardening and thiekening of the walls
of the arteries, due to the excess of uric
acid in the blood and tissues.
Anuric can be obtained in soc and
500 packages at the principal drug
stores in town.

RED CROSS CAMPAIGN
ASKED BY DEC. 5

The final reports from every local
ity in the state of the recent Red
Cross drive, must be in the hands of
F. F. johnson, war fund representative
of the state not later than Dec 3. 1t

ures of $475 900 will be shaved to any
material extent, although two counties
Shoshone and Bannocky will fall some
short on the amounts reported
C. e. King, field director for the
Red Cross with headquarters at Wash
ington, D. c., left Wednesday even
ing for Spokane after spending two
DAYS in Boise, comforting with Mr..
Johnson and getting in touch by long
distance telephone with various local
tiles, instructing leaders on the quick :
est methods of getting their reports
in on time.
1t Is given out that all Red Cross
subscriptions not paid and in the hands
of Mr.. johnson by Dec. : will have to
be deducted from the amount reported
subscribed by the state. Mr.. Killing
states that 1t is absolutely necessary
that the authorities At Washington
know Just the amount of money avail

THE CRIMES
OF GERMANY
Continued from Page Four)

foe the 2Sth of February, 1915, more
and children. who had been deported
from France to Germany, had been re-
patriated by way of Switzerland. All
those who received them on their re-
turn were alarmed at their ragged
condition and weakness" which was
so great that the French commission
of inquiry received special instructions
to question these victims. They took
the evidence of over 800 witnesses in
% different localities. To do justice
to their case one ought to quote the
whole report >
Children brutaly torn away
from their mothers, poor wretches
crowded for days together in car
riages so tightly packed that they
had to stand up, cases of madness
occurring among these helf- stifled
crowds, bowling with hunger.
But we must confine our quotations
to few items of ''kultur." while the
men of Combres set out for Germany
the women and children were shut up
in the village church. They were kept
there for a month and passed their
nights seated in the pews. Dysentery
and Group ragged among them. The
women were allowed to carry excre-
ment only just outside the church into
the churchyard.
AT least four of the prisoners were
massacred because they could not keep
up with the column, being completely
exhausted.
Forth, aged s., and infirm, could not
go any further. They tied a rope to
him, and two horsemen held the ends
so that he had to keep pace with the
horses. AS he kept falling down at
every moment, they made him get up
by poking him with their lances. The
poor wretch. covered with blood, prayed
them to kill him.
"One hundred and eighty-n nine inhab-
ltants of Sinceny, who were sent to Err
furt, arrived there after Journey of 81
hours, during which each of them got
nothing but a single morsel of bread
weighing less than four ounces. An
other convoy spent four days on the
railway journey and were only fed
once. and were beaten with sticks and
fists and with knife handles" The
same brutalities were experienced IN
the German cities through which they
passed, and very few of the civilian

prisoners escaped being buffeted by the
Infatuated crowds or being spat upon.
So much for the journey Now for
what happened to them after their ar
rivall 1.-THE declarations made to us
show clearly that the bulk or the pris-
oners almost collapsed from hunger.
After food had been distributed. when
anything was left, you saw some III
them rush to the neighborhood Of the
kitchens; hustled and beaten by the
sentries, these unfortunates risked
blows and abuse to try and pick up
some additional morsels Of the sicken-
ing food. You saw men dying of
hunger. picking up herring heads, and
the grounds of the mornings decoc-
tion."
At Parchim, where 1000 French civil
ians from ~ TO II years of age were
informed. two starving prisoners who
asked for the scraps left over were
beaten with the butt-ends of rifles to
such an extent that they died OF their
wounds. The young son of one Of them
who tried to protect his father was tied
to stake for a week on end.
On oath DIR. Page declares: Those
who had no money almost died Of hun
ger. When little soup was left,
crowd Of unfortunates dashed to get 1t,
and the noncommissioned officers got
rid Of them at last by letting the dogs
loose on them" But what is the need
of all these details and of all this evil
dence? Look at the 10000 who came
back after being repatriated and see
what the bandits have done to them.
Reader, summon up your courage and
peruse to the bitter end the conclusions
Of the official commission of inquiry.
ut is impossible to conceal the melan-
choly and indignation we felt on see
ing the state of the hostages whom
the Germans had returned TO us after
they had kidnapped them in defiance Of
the rights OF nations. During our in
quiry we never ceased hearing the per-
petual coughs that rent them. We saw
numbers of young people whose cheer
fulness had disappeared apparently for
ever, and whose pale and emaciated
faces portrayed physical damage prob
ably beyond repair. In spite of our
selves we could not help thinking that
scientific Germany had applied her
methodical ways TO TRY AND
SPREAD TUBERCULOSIS IN OUR
COUNTRY. Nor were we less pro-
foundry moved to thought by the sight
Of women mourning their desolated
hearths and missing or captive chill
dren. or by the moral impression left IN
the faces and bearing of many prison
ers by the hateful regime which was
intended to destroy, in those who were
subjected to it, the feeling of human
dignity and self-respect."
1t must also be noted that when the
commissioners making the inquiry saw
the repatriated people. they had had
some time in which to recover. first in
Switzerland and then in France. The
arrival of these pitiable drafts gave
rise (even among those of the Swiss
people who were in principle the least
hostile to Germany to such a feeling
Of horror for their executioners that
the kaiser took warning and thought it
wiser to suspend the repatriations for
several months. For the welcome and
the kind care which our poor martyrs
received at the hands Of the Swiss, our
grateful thanks and salutations are
due!

The Barnes County AgricnNm0
Fair association held its annual neek
ing Tuesday, Jan. Is, in the roonas *
the Commercial club. One of the laEe
est representations in the histoEy *
the association was present aaa u
splendid, harmonious spirit was H.
played by all. ]. H. Whitcher vas M
elected as director, while Fred EG6~
chell and Walter Emery were electe1
new directors.
There was unanimous opinauR
among all present that it would better
serve the interests of Barnes county
and make for a greater and larger lAak
if the same were held in early fsK
rather than the summer. Therefore,
by unanimous vote, it was moved t.
hold fall fair, not later than III
month of September the actual dates
being left to be decided later "
This change from summer to a Ilk
fair is in harmony with the chan6G
that is going on all over the county.
In Owatonna, Mimi, after their lair
had failed financially, they put on n
fall fair, which has proved to be q,
splendid success. Fergus Fails, MAJ"
dan and jamestown all proved that
the fall fair is what it now needed fsr
this country. There is strong racing
circuit springing up and the SECRETARY
of the Mandan fair Tuesday sent -
word that the fair can secure the Fer
gus Falls and Mandan circuit. Thh
will please the lovers of good h0rseg
and assures Barnes county of first
class line of horses. It is also eE.
pected that one day will be given tn
automobile races.
Perhaps the most important thoug10
that made for a fall fair was the fa1
that farmers from all over the country
will be able to bring valuable exhibits
at that time. Stock can be fitted IN
finer condition. Corn is mature asse
gives a chance for fine exhibit. H.
is also the best time for the poultry
show. Grains and fruits can then AZ
make their best showing. These Ell
hibits will bring valuable premiums 10
exhibitors from all over the county
and will be sure to arouse a live inter
est from all growers. There is every
reason to believe that the officers OF
the Better Farming association and
the schools, as we'll as the business in
terests, will cooperate to make this
the best fair in the history Of Barnes
county. People all over the country
should begin to plan now for DeN;
|fell's exhibits.
