Portends in the SKY
BY GARRETT p. sERvIss.

The astounding display of the
aurora borealis or the night OF
March Z. for which no particular
cause has been found. seems to have
profoundly affected the imagination
among many thousands Of people,
for the special reason, of course,
that it came when the world was
holding it's breath in expectation Of
the beginning of the most tremen-
dous battle yet known TO history
and was characterized by colors
and forms i'm the sky not only imi-
tative of the national standard Of
the allies. but also strongly suggest
i've, for minds inclined toward SUI
perstition. of battle and bloOdshed.
So well-timed celestial spectacle
capable Of being interpreted as a
prognOstic has seldom occurred,
and il is likely 10 ind its niche in
mythical history alongside of the
stories OF the skiey warriors, st
George and Joan OF Arc. whom
many French and English soldiers
declared they saw leading them on
through the battle clouds when the
German rush upon Paris was stayed
az the Marine.

In order to bring pressure against

ed to make use of the Bird Cavalry
Corps of General Krymov, whom I or
dered to continue concentrating on
Petrograd.
(The steps taken by General Kry-
NOV are then described, and General
Korniloff attributes the formers fail
ure to accomplish the task set before
him to the fact that communications
beween them were severed, and he
(Krymov) could not receive the last
instructions sent him. Having re-

regarding the death of General Kry-

A Coated Tongue ?==What it Means
tBy Dr.. L. C. BABCoCK.)

The liver acts as a guard over our
well-being, sitting out the cinders and
ashes from the general circulation.
A blockade in the intestines piles
q heavy burden upon the liver. If
the lntestines are choked or clogged
up, the circulation of the blood be-
comes poisoned and the system
becomes loaded with toxic waste,
and we suffer from headache, yellow
coated tongue, bad taste in mouth,
nausea, or gas, acid dyspepsia, LAM
guor, debility, yellow skin or eyes.
At such times one should take
pleasant laxative. Such a one is
made Of May-apple, leaves OF aloe
and put into ready-to-use form by
DR.. Pierce, nearly fifty years ago,
and sold for % cents by all druggists
as DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets.
When rundown, when life indoors
has brought about stagnant con-
dltion in the circulation-most every
one is filed with uric acid. This
uric acid in the blood often causes
rheumatism, lumbago, swelling of
hands or feet, or bag-like condition
under the eyes. Backache, frequent
urlnatlon or the pains and stlnness
OF the joints and high blood-pressure
are also often noticed. have found
that Anuric, double OF triple strength,
is an antidote for this uric acid
poison and that it will nd the BODY

Question of Dictatorship
( In response, 1 described the general
state of the country and the army,
and declared my profound conviction
that the only way out of this harass-
ing situation was the institution of a
dictatorship, and the immediate dec
laration of martial law.
I announced that it was not my
! ambition to attain this authority, and
/ that I was quite willing to submit to
anyone on whom the authority of a
/ dictator should be conferred, be it
Kerensky, Kaledin, Alexeyev, or any
| other.
Lvov declared that such solution
4 was possible, and that, in view of the
gravity of the situation, the present
l Provisional government would see for
! itself the urgent need for appointing
a dictator, and that in all probaplllty
