CRIPPLE CURED

A former patient of ours in a
recent visit here, called upon us
and told us of former football
svtar friend who had been Grip
pied for some years and forced to
use an invalids chair during that
time.
At the outbreak of the war he
was so anxious to be able to go as
a volunteer but his crippled con-.
dition prevented him. Finally he
started taking osteopathic treat
ment, and was cured, and he is
now in the trenches.
Is it any wonder that such as
he by the hosts have received the
help of osteopathy and now when
these soldiers wish and need the
treatment as frequently as they
need surgeons or drugs; that they
wish the right and privilege of
getting treatment when they ask
for it? In some camps some Off
GERS have had to raise a row to
get treatment from osteopaths,
who are serving in the ranks.
Many soldiers have asked for
treatment and have offered to pay
for such servicesIsif they could
have a ID. O. called to the camps,
but this has been denied them in

CROWDER'S MEN BUSY

The call for 10000 drafted men TO
be inducted into military service dur
ing April, which it was intended to
issue yesterday, was held up by a
delay incident to the computation Of
quotas under the old method. The IN
crease from $1,000, which the original
plans provided for inducing into the
military service this month. has been
definitely settled upon, 1t was said at
the office of the provost marshal gen.
eral. 1t was stated that the call would

for publication Sunday morning.
Accompanying the draft call. it is
understood, President Wilson will is
sue a proclamation announcing the
decision to call men subject to draft
earlier and in larger numbers than
had been planned. The knowledge
that such a proclamation is being pre-

U. S. HAS NOT OPENED
PEACE WITH CZERNIN
Munich Report Believed Inspired"
to Encourage Austrians.

State Department officials denied
yesterday statements in Munich
newspapers that peace negotiations
were opened between President Will
son and Count CZernin of Austria. 1t
was pointed out that following Pre-
mier Clemenceaus denial of Count
Czernin's statement relative to peace
negotiations. it was only natural that
the Austrian Government should en-
courage the publication OF reports of
negotiations with America. that the
Austrian public might be encouraged
that peace was not far off.
Although there are several avenues
by which President Wilson might sus-
tain communication with the Aus
trian Government. there Is no evil
dence that he has availed himself of
them. There is evidence. according
to some officials, that the statement
of peace negotiations has proved n
boomerang tC Count Czernir and that
he has been reproved by German
leaders for failing to lend himself to
the peace drive plan which the Kaiser
designed.
