A Hint to the Aged

If people past sixty years of age
could be persuaded to go to bed as soon
as they take cold and remain in bed for
one or two days, they would recover
much more quickly, especially if they
take Chamberlain Cough Remedy.
There would also be less danger of the
cold being followed by any of the more
serious diseases.

About Constipation

Certain articles of diet tend to check
movements of the bowels. The most
common of these are cheese, tea and
boiled milk. On the other hand raw
fruits, especially apples and bananas,
also graham bread and whole wheat
bread promote a movement of the bow
els. When the bowels are badly con-
stipatcd, however, the sure way is to
take one or two of Chamberlain Tab
lets Immediately after supper.

 It has been officially announced at Vienna that Emperor Charles has ab- dicated. This confirms cable advices received yesterday that he had given up the sceptre. The latest of the minor rulers of the German states to quit his throne is Prince Heinrich XXVII of Reuss.
 William HohenzolIern, the former German emperor, is now in Holland and has been visited by an official rep resentatiVe of the Netherlands gov ernment His. status has not been definitely settled as yet, but it appears that he is posing as a private citizen of Germany instead of the War Lord.
 According to advices from Bremen. the revolutionist sailors of the Ger man navy have seized all the war ships of the Empire and have estab- lished their control of Helgoland. What effect this will have on the agreement of Germany to surrender 8 certain number of vessels to the all lies cannot as yet be determined.
 Bolshevik forces in the Lake Baikal region in Siberia, have been defeated by the Czecho-Slovak and allied forces operating there. It is reported that Bolshevist resistance in that section has been broken. It is reported tha: the new Russian government has de- clared war on Germany.

 Judge Haines asked the purpose of the acquisition, and Judge Comley as- sured him it is in line with the pro- ject of the city to improve traffic con- dttions, and a part of the great war effort of the country to speed muni- tions, and to enforce peace.
 Judge Haines wanted definite as surance that the action of the gov ernment is in accord with that of the city, and Judge Comley offered to call Attorney David S. Day, who repre- sents the government in the proceed ings. He said the government is only interested in the legal questions in volved.
 Judge Haines decided to go ahead with the hearing of the case, and ex- cuSed attorneys and witnesses in other cases. Then the question of witnesses came up, and Judge Comley offered, if the question of legality of the city action is waived by Attorney Gould to consent to any reasonable delay for hearing upon the deter imitation of damages. He said the government is working in conjunction with the city and if the appellants will waive the legal questions the matter of requisition of property will not again be heard of.
 l Judge Haines declared a recess un- ! til 2 o'clock and heard Attorney Day 1 in his chambers. It is expected the hearing will go on after the recess.

Allied Commands Refuse to Modify
 Armistice Terms
tContinued From Page One ]


 Another of the eighteen terms which were amended provides that the designated units of the German fleet which are to be surrendered must be prepared to leave their ports within seven days after the signing of the armistice. No time limit was fixed on the original draft. Instead of 50,O00 railroad cars, the Germans are required to surrender 150,000 cars The number of machine guns to be turned over to the associated govern ments is reduced from 30,000 to 25,- 900. German troops in East Africa are required to evacuate that terri- tory instead of surrendering. Specific reference is made in the amended terms to repatriation of German pris- oners of war at the conclusion of peace.
 Territories which belong to Austria Hungary before the war are added to those which must be evacuated. Rus- sian provinces are to be evacuated 'as soon as the allies, taking into ac- count the internal situation of these territories shall decide that the time for this has come," instead of imme- diately. Provision also is made for an armistice commission.

CLASSIFICATION
 WILL BE STOPPED

Washington, Nov. 13---Draft bpards were ordered yesterday to stop classi- flying men under 19 or over 36 years and to withhold Questionnaires for such registrants not already sent out.
 It was said officially at the provost marshal generals office that regis trants of from 27 to 46 years old who have received Questionnaires, need not i'll them out
 Formal orders or announcements will be issued soon covering all such questions, Cancellation of all draft calls and inductions yesterday prac- tically has nuIlified the fight or work which thousands of men locked to essential industry on pain of imme- diate induction, though local boards have been ordered to continue classi- flying after physical examination men between IS and 46. The work or fight order fails by reason of the fact that the only penalty attached was that of being placed in Class l. With calls stopped the government has no power to penalize the non-essential employment.
 The cessation of the draft calls found the work of classifying all reg istrants under IS to 45 year extended limits moro than 60 per cent. com plete in the United States and en- tirey complete in some states and localities. The stopping of the calls does not relieve. any delinquent who has failed to obey draft board orders from the penalties which are attached under the law.
 l A single order from the general staff would suffice to start another stream of men flowing into the can l tonments and bring the work or fight and all other wartime requirements l back into force

man lines and inasnuch as no prison CTS are being taken, it is virtually impossible to get any information as to the movements of the German army.
 The hours since the cessation of hostilities have wrought a wonderful change in the front. Silence prevails. Ambulances are parked along the roads. Laughing troops of American and French soldiers are rejoicing over their success. It is taken for granted that the war cannot start going again.
 Only one thing stands before it. the work of the German prisoners wtIo are reparing the damage German guns and mines have done to the roads of France.
 The celebrations over the signing of the armistice in the towns in this part of France continue with unabated joy. The villages are illuminated for the first time in four years.
