Just what this alleged marvellous
product contains is of course still
mystery to the scientists of this coun-
try, although it is a we'll known fact
that many Of the organic sulphates,
when taken in conjunction with other
food, will greatly increase the blood,
tissues and weight of the individual.
1t has long been a recognized fact
that purely organic, assimable and
digestible iron would greatly enhance
the general health of mankind, but
the only known chemical irons ruined
the teeth, upset the digestion, and
were just about as absorbable in the
human anatomy as a ten.cent piece
would be.
The only known product in this
country similar to that described by
Baron Won der Keilhofer is Acid Iron
Mineral, which, like the iron found
in beef, mutton, celery, and few
other foodstuffs, is fully organic and
digestible.
Acid Iron Mineral not only Trims
the blood, but strengthens and invig-
crates it. For those who suffer from
the effects Of thickened, heavy blood,
coagulated and polluted with the
waste matter of the winters accu-
mutation, Aim stands without
peer; for it not only thins and purifes

Wild Rurnors
In Washington

WASHINGTON, July 25.-With
Americans, French and British forces
pressing the enemy hard on all sides
of the Aisne-Marne battlefront, the
air Of Washington was electric last
night with a feeling of expectancy,
as of a great event impending. Ru-
mors of a decisive victory ran all
through official circles like wildfre.
UntraceabIe reports were current
that the army Of the German crown
prince had been trapped and even
that the crown prince himself had
been captured.
Official reports gave no foundation
on which the feeling Of suppressed
excitement could be based. "a
1.-THE latest dispatches" said Sec
rotary Baker, "shOw continued adj
vances, in several places, by French,
British and American troops. They
are not extensive, but are import
ant and show that the battle is con-
tinuing with great vigor."
Earlier in the day press dispatch
told of rumOrs in London that the
British west of Rheims had scored a
decided success and had advanced
toward Fismes, the German rail base
midway between Scissors and the
city of Rheims. Later reports con-
firmed this to the extent of stride
forward by British and French forces
on 3-mile front just west of Rheims
throwing the enemy back mile and
a half. Probably it was this which
started wild reports of "a sweeping
victory. sr~
Still later on came news Of de-
cided gains by Franco-American
troops around Fere-en-Tardenois and
north of Dormans on the Marine. 1t
was evident that the. southern and
southwestern angle of the German
position were yielding to- the pres
sure against them. News came also
of important advances along the
Ourcq front.

of the vessel are missing and it is

Germany viii Never Starve-Not
While We Have 100000 PrisOners!''
Baron KeihOfsr
Bunderath Senator in Cannbasc Speech Declares Eating
Of Prisoners Thoroughly Justi6able if Black Wolf
of Starvation Faces Empire

Berne, Switzerland, (Delayed)
July 9.-In one of the most barbaric
speeches ever uttered in the high
chambers of Bundesrath, Baron Will
helm Won der Keilhofer, Of Bavaria,
with typical Teutonic cruelty, declar-
ed it was useless for the enemy to
presuppose that Germany could be
starved out, because of the added
harvest their conquest Of Russia en-
tailed and the fact that the Father
land already holds 100000 Ameri-
can, French, British and Belgian
prisoners, He said in part:
Survival of the fittest and self
preservation has always been the pre-
dominent features of existence. Were
Germany to face the black wolf of
starvation, it would be our sheer and
bounden duty to our brave soldiers,
wives and children, to slaughter such
prisoners as God may have granted
us in the same manner as we would
any other swine, and thus relieve the
hunger of our noble race. / might
take you back through the history of
the ages and show you how, when
forced to this point of extremity, all
nations have subsidized on the carcass
SEES of their prisoners.
Fortunately, however, Germany
will never be forced to such an ex-
trenlity; for God, in his righteous an
ger, has smitten the enemy and given
Russia-with her thousands upon
thousands of grain felds-unto us in
our hour of need, and while our mill
tary genius has been turning out sci
entiic monsters of destruction, our
wizards Of chemistry have been de-
veloping equally startling discoveries
of life conservation.
"Today we possess a marvellous
product, which ranks as the greatest
single achievement in the annals of
modern chemistry-one five-grain

Mr.. THACKER'S CARD

| regret to say that while it has
been impossible for me to canvass the
County in my behalf for Register,
owing to. the fact that l have no one
who understands the work in my alb
sence, as many of you know, and of
course the office must be kept open.
The stamp act, relating to deeds and
other instruments demands close at
tention, and / am held responsible
should anything go wrong. Yet I
have seen many voters and expect to
see more-however, l ask the support
and influence of all those whom
have not seen just the same, and as
sure you it viii be very much appre-
ciated SPY me- q'of' course many Of

conducted the office and the inter-
est l Have taken III the work, CITING
it my personal attention, pointing
out any errors which sometimes ex-
list IN acknowledgements to deeds and
other Instruments, Before receiving
same for record, giving the owners a
chance to have these errors correct
ed, as sometimes certain errors rem
der these instruments fatally defec-
tive. Then seeing when spread of
lecord they read exactly as the origi-
nal, and too, keeping the records
where they belong, in this way, al,
ways trying to avoid any question and
possibility of future litigation for all.
When this war is over, the Greatest
conflict the world has ever known,
there will probably be more searching
oflrecords than usual, to find out who
under certain conditions is the right
full owners of different property, from
the fact that there will perhaps be
some of our noble boys who may new
tr return, which thought we all de-
plore. Yet we all hope that it will be
possible for each one to get back
home safe, who has gone, and are
now so CALAMITY fighting; and the
same can be truthfully said of those
who are yet to go and help fight the
battles for maintenance of Liberty,
Peace, and for their homes, and orr
homes, and to protect the American
Flag, always keeping it floating in
