that during a tour of the coast de-

snecrs for our soldier boys before

his proposed design was rejected. To

AGAIN UNITED
MOTHER AND son FIND EACH
OTHER AFTER FIVE YEARS

man, of Lead, after having been
without knowledge of the whereab-
puts of his mother for a period of five
years, finally is again in communica-
ton with her. Circumstances oyer
which they had no control separated
them five years ago and they lost
complete track of each other. Rec
emily the mother, by merest chance,
learned that her son vas in Lead,
and a letter reached him. He was
so delighted that he acknowledged its
receipt by telegraph so his mother
would know at the earliest possible
moment that he was alive and well.
Since mother and son last saw each
other the son has had experiences
which would be regarded as big in
the life of anyone. He has been
overseas, where he participated in
some of the hardest battles, during
one of which he was wounded. He
has recovered with the exception that
he limps slightly because of an in
jury to one of his legs while in action.

WORDS FROM HOME
Statements that May BE Investigated
Testimony of Madison
Citizens.

When a Madison citizen m to
the front, telling his friends n
neighbors of his experience, you can
rely on his sincerity. The statements
of people residing in far away places
do not command your confidence.
Home endorsement is the kind that
backs Doan's kidney Pills. Such tes-
Itimony is convincing. Investigation
proves it truce. Below is a statement
of a Madison resident. No stronger
proof of merit can be had.
August Woitha, retired farmer,
Grant avenue, says: "Doan's Kidney
Pills are the best remedy ! have ever
used. My kidneys were out of order
and | suffered a lot from backache,
especially after | bent owe or lifted
something. had such sharp pains
i'm my back, l could hardly straighten
up. My kidneys annoyed me at night
acting too frequently. Doan's Kidney
Pills which | got at Smiths Drug
Store, regulated my kidneys and
strengthened my back. They helped
me in every way"
Price, 60 cents at all dealers.
Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy

that Mr.. Woitha had. Foster-Mil-

HAVE SEEN MUCH BLOODSHED
Plains of Palestine Trampisd by Many
of the Miehtiest Armies Known
to History.

Definite historical records regarding
events In Palestine may be said to be-
gin with the first detailed account of
the battle In the plains Of Armageddon,
the army Of Pharaoh Thothmes
III, advancing up the plain of Sharon,
crossed the Carmel range by the same
route as that taken by General Allen
by's cavalry in September, A. d. 1918,
and defeated the Syrian federation
under the king of Cadesh before the
fortress Of Megiddo in the year 1479
Il. c. This historic plain has seen the
the Egyptians, the Jews under Debo-
rah and Barak, the Philistines on
their way to the defeat of Saul on
Mount Gilboa. Then came like a wolf
Sennacherib the Assyrian, and after
him Nebuchadrezzar of Babylon. The
Persian C~ambyses swept through Pal
estine In the sixth century B. c., en-
route for his work of destruction in
Egypt. After the fall of Babylon Pal
estine saw the armies of Alexander
III 'ANdb IL ANihPNIH 'N'RP
Titus and Hadrian all fought In Pales-
tine. In A. ID. GA the Sassanlan EN-
peror Chosroes, stretching forth from
his capital at Ctesiphon, destroyed Je-
rusalem; once again the city was re-
built, and within a generation was
opened to the Arab and Moslem con-
querOr, Caliph Omar. In the twelfth
century the crusaders took Palestine,
which then became the scene of the
romantic struggle between Richard
Occur de Lion and Saladin. Fifty
years later the Holy Roman Emperor
Frederick III, known In the middle
ages as "the Wonder of the World"
crowned himself king of Jerusalem in
the church Of the Holy Sepulcher. In
1916 the armies of the Ottoman Turks
under Selim the Grim marched down
from Aleppo and seized the country
on their way to the conquest OF
Egypt. Nearly three hundred years
later Napoleon marched from Egypt
through the same pass of Megiddo to
the fortress Of Acre; and now the
forces of General Allenby have added
one more link TO this great historical
chain wherein have been engaged
practically all the greatest names In
human history.-From ''The Holy

Many Ships Sunk by Mines.

Early In December the British war
ship Cassandra struck a mine in the
Baltic and went down with the loss of
II men. In January a British freighter
foundered off Middlesborough after
hitting a mine and her crew was lost.
A few days later the French ship
Chaouia stumbled upon IA mine in the
Straits of Messina and went to the bot.
tom In four minutes. Four hundred
and sixty persons on board were lost.
The British sloop Penarth was sunk
by a mine % miles from the mouth of
the Tyne. Scarcely a day passes, in
fact, that some British, Norwegian,
Swedish or other craft is not sunk on
crippled by a mine in the North sea.
Navigation has become so hazardous
that many craft proceed only by day,
thus ~lessening the danger of coming
into contact with the dreaded dere-
lists.
Official figures issued by the Dutch
and Danish authorities give some idea
of the number of mines that have been

recent war. AT the close of the first
two years Of wal more than 500 mines
had been beached along the north coast
of Jutland. BY March /, 1916, 91s
mines had been washed upon the
shores of Holland. From 1914 10 1918
the Dutch picked up along the short
seacoast Of the Netherlands no fewer
than $3.50 contact mines.
The belligerents were not the only
European nations which employed
mines. The Dutch, the Danes, the
Norwegians and the Swedes all plant
ed defensive mine fields, and upor
nero occasions these weapons go
adrift and added to the perils of ship
ping.
Sweeping the Seas for Mines.
During the war mine sweepers wer,
constantly at work. Great Britain hat
no fewer than 700 craft to do this
work around the British isles alone
Each month the mine sweepers combet
100000 square miles of the sea, and t.
accomplish this they steamed more
than 100000 miles. In 1917 they gar
nered $4,000 German mines. In 1913
up to October 1 they had harvested
$4,000 mines. In this hazardous worl
more than $50 British sweepers were
blown to atoms and their crews lost.
Now all the allies are preparing Il
sweep the planted areas in an effort II
gather up every possible mine. Ii
some sections the removal of mines
has begun. In other areas the field
will not be touched until after tn
signing of peace terms. The task be
fore the nations Is to sweep the sea
free Of the vast army of submarine
weapons, and do 1t, despite the haz
ards involved, with the least possibl,
delay. But no matter how rapid,
this work may be prosecuted there still
remains the d~isquieting likelihood of
considerable percentage of these mine
breaking loose or being carried, ancho
and all, into areas remote from thei
original position.
