YECGMEN BLOW
AL. WAUGH'S SAFE

Last Thursday evening wit
messed a daring robbery in To-
ledo when ye.gT en entered Al
Waugh's pool room and SUCCESS
fully blaw his safe. The booty
taken amounted to about $500,
500 OF which was in cash and
5000 in notes. They also took
about $50 worth Of aluminium
trade checks. The safe is prac-
tically ruined.
Entrance to the building was
gained by using n jimmy on the
front door. After gaining en-
trance the robbers proceeded to
roll the safe into the back room.
Here the safe was drilled, the
charge inserted, the safe covered
with the covers off the pool table
to muffle the sound, and presto,
the deed was done. They evi-
IDENTIFY experienced some trouble
with the inner door after the
outer one was blown, as they
jcurneyed to Carson's black
smith shop and got q sledge
hammer to smash it with.
After the robbery they helped
themselves to ice cream sodas,
and left a couple of dimes on the
counter to settle the bill.
They apparently left no clews
as to their identity and it is very
doubtful if the robbers will ever
be captured.

ADVERTISER GETS
MORE FOR TIER MONEY

Advertisers in the L2adsr are
gettin2 more for their money
at the present time, than thay
ever did before. They are gof.
ting their ads placed before both
the LeaI,r readers and the Sem
uHel readers lor about the same
rate th"t it cost to advertise in
one pager alone before, The onlv
oitfer,a-e being that we have
Deen Io.ced to make = charge
for setting ads, whereas. We f0r-
merly made no charge for COM
position. The high price of lab
or and materials has made it
necessary that We make a small
charge for composition. But
this small charge is more than
o1set by our greatly in creased
circulation. THEN in addition
to this we have just installed a
sterotyping machine and are
prepared to furnish our adver-
tisers cuts for use in their ads
without any extra charge. We
nave a nice line of Christmas
and other Holiday cuts ready
and remember the use of these
cuts is FREE to our advertisers.
The addition Of this department
marks another improvement in
our plant, there being no other
shop in the county able to equal
the service offered by the Lea
der. We do not wish to boast
but believe we are justified in
a pride in our plant, which we
always aim to keep right up
abreast of the times.
Are you ready for your Xmas
advertising? We are deing our
best to make your ads attractive
and now it is sQuarely up to YOU
to take advantage of the service
offered.

Corn strip may be used in canning
and in making ~jellies, jams and mar
malades and fruit buffers. Varying
amounts of corn strip are used with
sugar. The strip gives a modified fla

fruits such as pineapple and cherries.
The amount used must be determined

connection with the emperor's peace
letter. Doctor Funder maintained
Count Czernin not only had known Of
this letter. but even had caused the
emperor TO write 1t. This is In con-
fict with all previous declarations.
Doctor Funder said:
at want to refer to two Of the ru-
mors because they are repeated in pub
lie with the greatest persistence, so
much so that e some Of our well
meaning people believe them. One of
these rumors concerns two brothers OF
Empress Zita, Prince Sixtus and
Prince Xavier of Parma, both of whom
are residing In a foreign country.
Three brothers of the empress are
serving In the Austro-H Hungarian army,
as Is well known. 1t is not true II
anyone says that the two other princes
had gone over to the French side at
the beginning of the val for the pur-
pose Of fighting against the central
powers. AS a matter Of fact, both
these princes asked to be enrolled in
the Austro-H Hungarian army at the be-
ginning of the war. When they were
refused permission they placed them
selves at the disposal of the Interna-
tional Red Cross In Geneva to engage
in charitable work.
Czernin Responsible.
att is not true when 1t Is said that
the two princes returned to Austria
once or on several occasions to meet
their families and confer with them.
The story of their holding a confer
ence somewhere In Steiermark or
elsewhere Is false. It Is true they
were In Austria twice without seeing
their families. They came because
Count Czernin had called them. And
Count Czernin had called them be-
cause he thought they could be used
In clearing the path for peace negotia-
tions.
sour enemies rejected all efforts
made by the princes, but that was not
the latters' fault. In the same way
the enemies have so far rejected all
peace proposals made by statesmen Of
the central powers. AT a time when
the central powers had no diplomatic
representatives in the countries of the
enemies 1t was only natural to employ
two p~ersonages standing so high as
the two princes In the movement for
bringing about peace. We all pray
that this peace movement may be sue
cessful some day, and those who will
bring 1t about will certainly be enti-
tied to the thanks of all humanity.
".And just as r~esolutely another
truth must be proclaimed again and
again. The em%peror's letter propos-
Ing peace negotiations was caused to
be sent by Count Czernin, the respon-
sible minister, who accepted the re-
sponsibility for its purpose and its
contents. 1t was Count Czernin who
selected Prince Sixtus to act the part
of a messenger of peace. And who
ever is Of the opinion that Count Ger
min was a statesman endowed with
certain abilities must be convinced
that Count Czernin could accept re-
sponsibility for causing the emperor
to send his peace letter with the full
weight of his personality. And In
spite Of this. what a variety Of conclu-
sions has been drawn from his resir-
nation T."

Madison People Should Ask Them

Don't say: TITS just a cold"
1t may turn into backache, rheu-
