RANG OUT ALARM OF FIRE
As Late az Civil War Days New York
Employed Bells to Warn Citizens
Of Danger.

Not longer ago than Civil war days
fire alarms were rung In the city on
great bells hung in towers erected for
the purpose about the town. The bells
Indicated the district In which the fire
was and sometimes a good deal OF
ground was covered in looking for a
Ere. The First district, for instance,
In Civil war days extended from Twen-
ty-second street north to Yorkville and
from the East river to the North.
The bell ringers were constantly on
duty in the towers watching for signs
of fire. An inventory Of the contents
Of the old Marion street bell tower In
1865 shows the equipment then in use.
1t is as follows: zone bell, weight H.
600 pounds; one striking apparatus
one stove, table, clock, one spyglassr
one field glass, one slate and book.
The fire bells of the old city could
be heard all over the town unless
gale of wind was blowing. The largest
bell was in the City hall tower. lts
weight was $4,000 pounds.-New YORK

OLD PRESCRIPTION
FOR WEAK KIDNEYS

Have you ever stopped to reason why
it is that SO many products that are ex-
tensively advertised, all at once drop out
of sight and are soon forgotten? The
reason is PLAINTIFF article did not fulfil
the promises of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to medicine.
A medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy is
recommended by those who have been
benefited, to those who are in need of it..
A prominent druggist says, "Take for
example DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root, a
preparation ] have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend, for in
almost every case it shows excellent re.
suits, as many of my customers testify
No other kidney remedy that l know OF
has so large SALE"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of DR..
Kilmers' Swamp-Root is due to the fact
that SO many people claim, 1t full lis al

Text of Note.


The teYt of the note follows:
In reply to the questions of the
president Of the United States of
America, the German government
hereby declares:
The German government has ac-
cepted the terms laid down by Presi-
dent Wilson in his address of Janu-
airy Sth and in his subsequent adj
dresses on the foundation of a perma
nent peace of justice. Consequently,
its object in entering into discussions
would be only to agree upon practical
details of the application of these
terms. The German government be-
lieves that the governments of the
powers associated with the govern
ment of the United States also take
the position taken by President Will
son in his address. The German gov
tro-Hungarian government, for the
purpose of bringing about an armi-
stice, declares itself ready to comply
with the propositions of the president
In regard to evacuation. The German
government suggests that the presi.
dent may occasion the meeting of
mixed commission for making the
necessary arrangements concerning
the evacuation. The present German
government, which has undertaken
the responsibility for this step toward
peace, has been formed by conferences
and in agreement with the great
majority of the reichstag. The chan
cellor, supported in all his actions by
the will of this majority, speaks in the
name of the German government and
of the German people.
(Signed) SOLF.
State Secretary of Foreign Office.
Berlin, October II, 1918.
At the first reading the text would
seem to answer, in manner which
might lead to peace, all the questions
President Wilson asked of Chancellor
Macmillan in his inquiry, which was
sent as an answer to the German
peace note received here October Z.
In this inquiry the president de-
clared he would not propose an armi,
stice while troops of the central pow
ers remained on invaded soil; he
asked whether Prince Macmillan ac-
cepted the terms of peace as laid
down, or merely wanted to discuss
them "as basis for negotiation, -
and finally he asked whether the
chancellor merely represented the mil
itarists who have been conducting the
war.
The one point which appeared to
loom up in the text of the unofficial
copy is whether Chancellor Maximil-
ian and Foreign Secretary Solf can in
reality represent the German people,
as the reply declares they do.
