military preparation having failed to
win the war and then her sabotage
preparation, Germany began a new
preparation for the overthrow of the
various governments in the war
against her. This is defined in a cir
cular issued by the press director of
the German foreign office on Febru-
airy 20, 1915, and which was sent to
all the German ambassadors, minis
tiers and consuls, which reads:
Special Bureaus for Destruction.
There have been established with
in the territory of the country where
you are, special bureaus for the or
ganization of propaganda in the coun-
tries. that are in the war coalition
against Germany. The propaganda
will have for its object to propagate
social upheavals, accompanied by
strikes, revolutionary explosions sep
aration movements and civil war as
well as an agitation in favor of dis
armament and the cessation of the
present bloody war"

result in Russia, are likewise on file.

the remittance in Russia of 10000

Trotzky and Lenine.

The Sparrow had been interested to

power grew less and less. The glory
of the Sunflowers faded with the glory
of the Sun and the gold turned brown.
Soon only brown Seeds were left and
at last these began to drop upon the
ground.
Then said the Sparrow to his wife,
They are truly Children of the Sun
after all They were so bright and I
am really sorry they are gone"

THE SUNFLOWERS.

A Lady was planting some Seeds in
the ground. They were quite large
Seeds. 1--WE know what we are going
to be some day." they said. I'VE be-
long to the Sun, indeed we are Little
Babies of the Sun
A Sparrow was standing as near to
the Lady as seemed safe. and said to
his wife, II don't see why she wants
to put all those good seeds into the
ground, 1 could find better use for
them 1 am sure" His wife answered
him, There are some things that even
you do not know, 1 have seen wonder
full things come out of that good
brown Earth. Here you are wasting
time, get some straw and feathers and
pieces of string. l shall never get this
nest made II you don't go to work.
What is the use of talkingaso much ?"
The Seeds were planted and the
dark Earth was pulled over them and
they were shut out from the light of
the shining Sun.
Little drops of Rain crept down
thru the ground to moisten them and
soften them. The Sun came after this
and sent his warmth into the ground
to where the Seeds lay. Then each
little plant burst the seed skin and
pushed his head up to the light and
the air.
The roots went down deep into the
Earth in search for moisture and

plants and make them healthy and

The circular concludes by saying:
ton will furnish you with the neceS-
sary materials for provoking explo-
sions and fires, also a-tist of persons
of the country under your surveillance

A little later, on November %, the
general staff of the German marine
took a hand by issuing orders to all
agents of surveillance and agents of
destruction in the military ports of
the allies"

Continuing, the circular reads: 1T

Wishing Hoping
Accomplish Little
Unless You Act

You can't wish PILES away. You
can't hope for a cure without per-
sonal effort. That personal effort
consists in coming to my office and
determination to be CURED
That determination need not, nor,
does not necessitate sacrifice nor
suffering. 1t simply means the
overcoming of the fear that the
treatment will cause you pain
That is about all you have to-
overcome. The cost of a CURE is
very reasonable The treatments
are made in a painless manner.
simply the mild application of an
electric current in such a manner
as to revive and stimulate normal
circulation.
The membrane of the pile tpmor
is not broken. After an application
the patient feels easy and free to
go about without pain. No soreness
arises as the result of the appliea-
ton.
Marked improvement is noticed
right from the first treatment. If
you come before the case has
reached the more severe stages, a
single application. two or three at
most. will effect a cure.
OF course the PILES of longer
standing and in a more aggravated
condition require longer to COM
plete the cure.
BUT BEAR THIS IN MIND
EVERY CASE OF PILES AC-
CEPTED BY ME WILL BE CON-
PLETELY AND PERMANENTLY
CURED OR EVERY PENNY OF
MONEY YOU MAY HAVE PAID
WILL BE PROMPTLY REFUND
