Washington, Sept. 23.--Horrifisd
by the bloody reign of terror in Rus

upon all allied and neutral nations
to consider what they may do to inn

sion with which the civilized world

: Whatever action may be decided
upon by the nations, separately, or
in concert, it is made clear. will be
quite apart from, the prosecution Of
the war against Germany.
The reported action Of the Boil
sheviki in effeeting ans alliance with
Germany for offense and defense Is
an added cause for the STEP.
. Official reports from Russia, many
coming through neutral countries,
have recited revolving acts that have

Thereig of terror has already
greatly hindered the efforts OF the
United States to alleviate an i'm

impossible to furnish much needed
supplies to that part OF the country
under Bolshevik control without ac-
tualIy feeding the German army and
the German populace. 1t is conced~
ed that there is enough food in
southeastern Russia and western ST.
IBERIA to feed all the Russian people
If means Of distribution could be
to keep the supplies from
falling into German hands.
The alliance between the Bolshev-
lists and Germany present a danger

it may afford Germany an opportun-i
ity greatly to increase her waning

PRENATAL cARE-lI

The woman preparing for mother
hood should bathe every day with
tepid water and soap, we'll rinsed off
with cool water. The nipples must
also be washed, and, if dry, a little
lanoline rubbed on them.
Clothing suited to the tempera-
ture and supported as much as pos
sible from the shoulders should be
worn during pregnancy. If possible,
change the underclothing daily. The
corset or maternity belt if one is
worn, must not bind the waist, and
should be long enough to support
the abdomen. -.
Take good care of the teeth, other
wise stomach disorders are apt to
arise. Early in pregnancy if the
teeth are in bad condition it is best
to consult a dentist. particularly. if
any teeth need filling.
Enough exercise to keep the
muscles in good condition is neces-
sary. Walking and housew6rk are
specially good, providing care is
taken to avoid lifting heavy objects
Heavy work or vigorous exercise
should be avoided by all means dur
ing the last two months of preg-
nancy.
No woman and particularly the
woman who is run down" or physi-
caIly weakened from overwork
should delay having a thorough
medical examination by a competent
physician, after once becoming
aware that she is to become a moth
er.
Z These examinations should include
measurements Of the pelvis to make
sure that there are no unnatural OBJ
structions or bone formations. Such
early examinations permit steps to
remedy conditions before it lis too
late.
The working woman or the active
woman who is taking care not to
overworlSJ or over exercise during
pregnancy should not, however, go
to the other extreme and merely sit
indoors. Light exercise to> keep the
muscles in condition is necessary,
and at other times great benefit is
derived from sitting quietly out in
the fresh air, if the weather is suit
able, and resting while they sew,

Bismarck, N. D, Sept. 23.-"once

Of Bismarck from any odium which
may be connected with the name of

Williams. THE Northern Pacific

of our. town from Edwinton to Bis

was anxious to float a large bond

round bout at the international
league baseball park at Newark, N.

The stipulated weight of the fight
ers must be 1&1 pounds at 8 o'clock

from the respective training quarters
this morning that both contestants
were well under this figure Phys
ically the rivals are fairly well
matched, considering that they are
boxing out Of their class. Lewis has
an advantage of height and reach,

his speed and ring generalship will

Of genuine worry.
Enlargement of the Heart.
Worried:1 Enlargement of the
heart is due to any cause which
throws increased work upon it.
Among such conditions are. .valvular
heart disease and also certain dis
, eases of the arteries or of the kid
neys. 1t is not necessary that one
who has an enlargement Of the heart
should have any symptoms from it.
| If the heart is entirely competent
for the work that is placed upon it,
no symptoms will arise. When the
heart becomes entirely incompetent
to perform it's functions properly,
there will be a. shortness Of breath
particularly upon exertion and there
may be swelling of the ankles, cough
from CONGESTION Of the lungs, etc.
Enlargement OF the heart is not in
and of itself dangerous. The serious
nature of the condition is the indi-
cation that it affords that the heart
is being overworked. ~.

UATP REMEMBERED,

Gus Axelson, veteran Chicago

In the National league there
was an umpire named Harrison
He was having a rotten day of it
at the Cubs park and, while
standing back of third base, heard
a fan cry, Hey, Umps, remember
Youngstown? ~ J
Harrison, who comes from
Youngstown, was tickied to hear
at least one friendly voice, and
waved TO the fan, nodding that he
did remember the dear old town.

sad to his little nephew, and Mrs.
Bunny said all right, for she always
did everything Uncle Lucky wanted,
You know for he was very rich and
was going to leave Billy Bunny his
fortune and the Luckymobile be-
sides.
And then they got into the ma
chine and Billy Bunny honked the
horn, two times and a quarter, and
away went the Luckymobile over the
Pleasant Meadow and through the
gate in the Old Snake Fence and by
and by they came to the corner of
Lettuce and Carrot streets, where
the old gentleman rabbit lived. But,
oh, dear me! Ish't 1t dreadful when
you are almost home to have some
thing happen. Or maybe it's better,
when you come to think of it, For
just then Robber %Hawk, who was
flying overhead, saw rthe two little
rabbits before they saw him, and
down het swooped and grabbed dear
Uncle Lucky's stovepipe hat in his
claws and then he flew away, and
Uncle Lucky had nothing on his head
but his hair and not very much Of
that.
"Oh dear; oh, dear, what shall I do,
= I've lost my wedding hat?
I'd rather lose a pair of shoes LIZ
Then such a thing as that"
And then the old gentleman rab-
bit began to- cry, and if he doesn't
cry his head off so that he won't
have anything to put his hat on, I'll
tell you in the next story what hap
pened after that.

knocking on the kitchen door Of Billy
Bunny's house. Well, after little
while, not so very long. he went out
to the woodpile and got a great big
tremendous stick, and then he began
pounding on the door like a wood
chopper. And, oh. dear me! How
that kitchen door trembled. 1t was
nearly frightened TO death. l guess
for it was only thin wooden door
you know, and wasn't so very
strong.
GO way, go way you robber bold
How dare you break our kitchen
And raise the dust from off the
