UNCOVER RICHES IN RUSSIA
Development of Mineral Deposits, Re-
tarded by Autocracy, Now Likely
to Be Rapid

AS in everything else, the old re
gime of Russia had its strangle hold
on the gold industry. Siberia and the
Ural could be considered the classical
parts of the world where deposits OF
precious minerals abound and under
free and progressive government
they could easily lead all the other
parts of the world, says the Russian
American Journal of Commerce. The
Russian press is full of news Items
chronicling new discoveries of gold
and platinum deposits, as well as
other rare metals.
So from Krasnoyarsk, In Siberia,
came the news that in the northern
and southern Enisey mountain dis
tricts the gold seekers have lately
washed gold to the amount of about
$3.50 pounds. From the Lena, well
known as a gold-bearing river, comes
the word that new rich gold and plati-
mum deposits were discovered on her
tributaries, Willy and also Markha.
With the laying of the tracks of the
Amur railroad there is almost con-
tinuous procession of discoveries of
new deposits of precious metals, espe-
cially on the Rivers Burea and Khara;
all the deposits are not far from the
new laid tracks and offer all the OPP
portunities for successful develop
ment of the newly discovered deposits.

URIC ACID

Every since the discovery of Scheefc
in l775 that uric acid was found within
the body-most eminent physicians
agree that rheumatism is caused by il. ;
also many distressing symptoms as
headache, pain in back. stomach dis
tress, swollen feet and ankles. govt, etc
Neglected kidney trouble is responsible
for many deaths.
Il was DIR. Pierce of the InvaIids'
Hotel. Buffalo. NJ Y. who discovered
new agent called Anuric. a harmless
rcmedy-that il taken before meals will
carry off the uric acid from the system
and in this way the pains and aches. the
crcaly joints and all the distressing
symptoms of rheumatism and other
maladics disappear. You can easily
prove this yourself by obtaining Al
uric at almost any drug store, or send
DIR. Pierce 1oc for trial pkg. Try it
and be convinced Anuric is many times
more active than lithia and eliminates
rTic acid as hot water mclts sugar.

HIS PRESENTMENT CAME TRUE
Canadian Soldier Met Death at Front
But Not at All In the Manner
That He Had Feared.

The men of the First Canadian d.
vision who came unscathed through
the smashing fight mt Ypres, the bat
tie Of Festubert and the Givenchy cy-
clone In April, May and June of 1915,
almost all believed they could not be
| killed. They had seen so many COM
rades fall, and had so many narrow
escapes, that they assumed the bullet
was not nodded that could get them.
One exception was member of the
Thirteenth battalion canadian Black
Watch. He had premonition of
death and saw his fate in every shell
that burst in sight and every bullet
that tipped past him.
Each time he went into the trenches
he died thousand times in imagina-
ton. and he was a helpless, hopeless,
useless object the last time we went
into the line in front of Ploegsteert
woods. He never smiled, whistled or
sang when in the firing line; he was
literally obsessed with the fear of
DEATH
On the morning following his last
night In the trenches he was smiling
broadly. The company were snug In
billets and he was preparing to shave,
whistling as he stropped his razor.
Suddenly careless draft man with
out warning exploded a cartridge that
lay forgotten In the breech of his rifle.
The bullet pierced the brain of the
man with the razor, and he died with
In n few moments.
Not till then did his comrades real
lie that his fear of death was based |
upon presentment that came true,
though not at all in the manner the
man expected.-The Wide
World.

FALLING HAIR MEANS
 DANDRUFF IS ACTIVE
Save Your Hair! Get 25 Cent Bottle of Danderine Right Now-AIso
 Stops Itching Scalp.

Thin, brittle, colorless and scraggy hair is mute evidence of a neglected scalp; of dandruff-that awful scurf.
 There is nothing so destructive to the hair as dandruff. It robs the hair of it's luster, it's strength and it's very life; eventually producing feverish- ness and itching of the scalp, which if not remedied causes the hair roots to shrink, loosen and die-then the hair falls out fast. A little Danderine Onight-now-any time-will surely save your hair.
 Get a 25 cent bottle of Knowlton's Danderine from any store, and after the first application your hair will take on that life, luster and luxuriance which is so beautiful. It will become wavy and fluffy and have the appear ance of abundance; an incompatible gloss and softness, but what will please you most will be after just a few weeks use, when you will actual ly see lot of fine, downy hair-new hair-growing all over the scalp.

GERARD AND PARTY
 AT SWISS BORDER
MEMBERS GIVE A GENUINE SIGH OF RELIEF WHEN STRAIN IS
 BROUGHT TO AN END.
DECLINES TO MAKE REPORT
While in Berlin His Telephone Wires Were Cut, His Mail and Photographic Privileges Stopped, So That He
 Could Not Instruct Consuls.

Zurich, Switzerland.-Mos of the members of Ambassador Gerard's large party gave genuine sigh of re- lief when the Swiss border was reached, for the strain of the last few days had told more or less on the majority of the travellers. Ambassa- dor Gerard met cordially the horde of newspaper men who crowded about him on his arrival at Zurich, clamor- ing for interviews for papers all over the civilized world, but he kept rigidly to his determination not to speak for publication until after he had report ed to President Wilson in Washing ton.
 The strain of the situation of the Americans in Berlin had been height ened toward the end by the efforts of the German authorities to induce MT. Gerard to open negotiations for an amendment to the Prussian-American treaty of 1799. At the same time the German newspapers were flooded with reports of the seizure of German ships by America and with stories of difficulties and indignities encountered by Count von Bernstorff Ambassa- dor Gerard was refused permission to communicate in cipher with Washing ton and the authorities ignored all de- nials of the stories printed in the German newspapers until an official message received through the Spanish on, ha m oda tb at tbo stnr-iac were false. Prior to this Ambassa- dor Gerards telephone wires were cut, his mail and telegraphic privileges stopped; so that he could not even in- struct the American consults; and he was, in his own words, a prisoner.
 MT. Gerard's farewells were said in friendly, though formal manner. Many Germans were in the throng at the station, which consisted partly of Americans who had not received per mission to depart on the embassy train and must await the police routine before being allowed to leave.
 The fact that it was not generally known that MT Gerard was departing reduced these demonstrations at the South German stations to a minimum of curious crowds.
 The party was accompanied by two representatives of the foreign office and guarded carefully by men from the secret service. The customs in- sepection and other examinations at the border were relaxed to mere formality.

SYRUP 0F FIGS FUR A CH|LO'S BOWELS It is cruel to force nauseating, harsh physic into a
 sick child.

Look back at your childhood days. 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.
 If your child's stomach, liver and bowels need cleansing, give only deli cious California Syrup of Figs" It's action is positive, but gentle. Millions of mothers keep this harmless fruit laxative" handy; they know children love to take it; that it never fails to clean the liver and bowels and sweet en the stomach, and that teaspoonfui given today saves sick child tomor- row.
 Ask at the store for a 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 a 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 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 ain't 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 a class of boys in arithmetic, set the following question:
 If eat fell into a 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, and one little. fellow went at the problem with will, and covered both sides of his slate with calculations.
 ''Heren' exclaimed the inspector, as he noticed him hard at work. Stop doing that. Haven't you the sense to see that the eat 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" !"

A Tale of Trieste.

The Italians are fighting to get back Trieste. How some of the inhabitants of that city feel toward their Austrian masters is shown by the following story: A traveller went into a church there and noticed among a large num- Der of votive offerings a silver mouse This, he was told, was presented by a lady whose house had been overrun with these little pests. After her gift to the Madonna, the mice entirely dis, appeared from her place.
 You don't believe that yarn?" re. marked the skeptical traveller.
 "Of course not" replied the sacris- tan, ''or we should have made a silver Austrian long ago."
