Cure for Dysentery.

"While was in Ashland, Kansas, a
gentleman overheard me speaking of
Chamberlain's Collie and Diarrhoea
Remedy" writes William Whitolaw of
Des Moines, Iowa. "He told me in
detail of what it had done for his fam
lily, but more especially his daughter,
who was lying at the point of death
with violent attack of dysentery,
and had been given up by the family
physician. Some of his neighbors ad-
vised him to give Chamberlain's Collie
and Diarrhoea Remedy, which he did,
and fully believes that by doing so
saved the life of his child. He stated
that he had also used this remedy
himself with equally gratifying re-
suits"

OBITUARY

On Monday last Mrs Lucinda Kohl,
wife of Conrad Kohl died at their
home three miles south of Perrysburg.
Mrs. Kohl had been in poor health for
three years, the last few months of
which were marked by terrible suf-
fering.
Mrs. Kohl's maiden name was Dav-,
export. She was born in Huron coun-
ty, Ohio, February 25th, 1S45, being
more than "a years of age at the time
of her death. Her parents, with the
family, moved to Wood county in 1852
and settled four miles south of Per-
rysburg in what was then almost a
wilderness. Two members of the fam
lily died in early middle age; two
brothers, Franklin and Adelbert, and
one sister, Caroline Mrs. John KohD,
lived the greater part of their lives
near Perrysburg, and preceded her by
"a few years.
She was married to Mr.. Conrad
Kohl May II, 1877, and is survived by
him and son, Wilson R., and daugh-
ter, Ida E. (Mrs. Fred EckeD, and
five grandchildren, all of whom dwell
near the old homestead, just south of
town. Mrs Kohl was the sole re-
naming member of one of the pioneer
families of the county. Through youth,
middle age and maturity, she toiled
patiently through all the hardships
incident to building farm and a fine
home out of virgin land She was
quiet and unassuming and was always
cheerful. She lived much at home, but
her spirit OF kindness and service took
her always to neighbors and friends
who NEEDED her help. God in His good
ness permitted her to give long life
of service to the community which she
saw grow from the forest to the we'll
titled farm, and from the log abin to
the modern home. Her reward on
earth was the love of her family and
Ineighbors, and the joy in toll; she
now passes to the joy of another world
as reward for a pure and useful life.
Funeral services were held at the
residence at 10 o'clock a. m., on Thurs
day, July 81, Rev. w. H. Spybey Of
ficiating. Interment was made at Ft.
Meigs cemetery.
She left us sad and lonely,
Never even said good bye;
And we hope some time to join her
In the heavenly realms on high.
Called from earth and all its sorrows,
To holy and peaceful sleep
May she sleep all through the morrow
Sweetly in Jesus till we meet.

A Bilious Attack.

When you have bilious attack your
liver fails to perform it's functions.
You become constipated. The food
you eat ferments in your stomach in
stead Of digesting. This infames the
stomach and causes nausea, vomiting
and a terrible headache. Take three
of Chamberlain's Tablets. They will
tone up your liver, clean out your
stomach and you will soon be as well
as ever. They only cost quarter.

Know What You Want.

"The hardest customers l have" n

want" This class of people is larger
than we might expect, and not only do
they make trouble for others but they
are restless and discontented. Do not
wait for someone to tell you what you
want. Find out for yourself. The first
step toward getting what you want is
to know what it is.

MONROE DOCTRINE IS
 OBSOLETE DECLARES REV. EDWARD A. GEORGE

That the League of Nations should prevail was the declaration of Rev. Edward A. George in his address at the United church, yesterday, when he took as his subject The Healing of the Nations" The speaker also declared the Monroe Doctrine is obse- lete, saying in part:
 "Co-ortination and harmony be- tween the nations is a necessity for the health of the world. The foot must be in league with the hand and the ear with the eye. It is because the League of Nations is an eXpres- sion of this necessary co-ordinatioii that I believe it must prevail.
 Those who insist that a peace treaty with Germany must first be drawn are like those who would poultice a sore finger when blood poison has set in instead of curing the entire physical system. An open sore any where may throw the entire world into a fever. It is on this principle that I believe the Monroe Doctrine e has become obsolete. The ocean may be as wide as ever in miles, but it is narrower in time. Did not Al cock fly from Halifax to Ireland in Is hours. overnight And with such bridging of the ocean can~~America longer remain insular? America for Americans and avoidance of entangl- ing alliances was good doctrine in Washington's day but one or two things have happened since then"

AGED WOMAN MURDERED
 IN HER NEW HAVEN HOME
Elm City Residents Aroused Over Tragedy Which Re suited in Death of Mrs. Esther Hopcraft, Whose Body
 Was Found by Woman With Whom She Bearded

New Haven, June 23-Tortured, probably and maltreated, Mrs. Esther Hopcraft, aged 61 years, was murder ed Thursday night in her makeshift home in a barn in the rear of S3 Dickerman street. Her body, revolt ingly Saulted, was found Saturday noon by Miss Mary A. Ellis, of S3 Dickerman street, who had given the lone woman a home and her board The police, detective bureau and the states attorneys office are now work ing on the case, the details of which will probably reveal one of the most repulsive crimes ever committed in this city.
 Alone in her home, in one of the most crowded sections of the city, her outcries for help were unheard, and the woman who had once boasted that she never feared living alone in any neighborhood, however lonesome or unsavory, because God was all ways with her. died before the friends who had aided her could come to her help. She was last seen alive Thurs day night when she planned days work in West Haven, Friday. She never reported there.
 The hours which passed between the time the woman was assaulted and the time when her body was discov- cred aided the murder or murderers and handicapped the Investigators In their work, and the mystery of Mrs.

Hopcraft's death may never be solved.
 Mrs. Hopcraft was a harmless, gen. tie, though eccentric woman, who was well known in the city, and her murder has stirred the neighborhood as nothing else has in years.
 She had been given a home in the barn which was finished off in two rooms by Miss Els, who also furnish ed her with her meals Mrs. Hopcraft was last seen alive Thursday night by Mrs. Carrie R. Els, mother of Miss Els. The woman told her she expect ed to go to work in a laundry in West Haven, the proprietor of which was a friend of hers. She expected to do a days work there, and would not work Saturday because of her religious be- lief in keeping the seventh day holy. She told Mrs. Ellis that she would come Friday night and see her. Mrs. Els and her daughter were i'll tn at night, and when she did not appear they were net able to go to the barn to find cut whether their friend was in her usual health or not
 Saturday noon Miss Els fnvestigat- ed and found Mrs. Hopcraft dead, and conditions generally suggesting mur- der. The condition of the body and the fact that she did not report for duty Friday at the West Haven laun- dry as was expected leaves little doubt. the authorities say, that she was killed Thursday night.

FOREIGN OPINION.

Neue Zurcher Zeitung (Swiss, 1nd.) A s. German correspondent whites:
 ''The German people are weary. And that is only too easily explained. It is exhausted. The terrible things which it has gone through have eX- hausted it bodily and mentally. It is also underfed and only a future time will be able to ascertain the dread full effects of the hunger-war which has been carried on against it and which in its cruelty surpasses all the other war measures. It is also phys ologically devastated. It has been misused for aims which exceeded its strength and it has allowed itself that is it's guilt-to be misused in its blind confidence and unripeness. All that 1t trusted has been destroyed. It has been thrown down into an awful abyss. Its leaders again staked everything on one card. They placed the destiny of the German people confidingly into wilson's handL The revolution, almost in one night, has swept away monarchial Germany more thoroughly than even their ene- mics expected. But it did not bring peace. All this together has ,,, -z-cu that enigmatical, uncanny dislike of work amongst the best organized and disciplined masses of working men, as eg., amongst the miners. On this soil grows also the sad indifference and lack of interest which penetrates to- day large strata of the bourge oisie
 the fatalism, which is ready to ac- cept anything without resistance
 This is the soil on which the most dangerous enemy, the moral enemy of all culture, Bolshevism, raises its head and uses its enlisting strength to persuade the tired, dulled men that 1t is the universal remedy for despair. And yet there are strong forces in Germany to resist it.'

NO DANGER OF
 NATURALIZATION
 SAYS E. H. GARRY

Hartford, Conn.,, June 23.---There is no danger of industrial demoriliza-
 tion, revolution or retrogradation in
 this country. E. H. Gary, chairman of
 the Board of Directors of the United States Steel Corporation, told the stu dents of Trinity College today in a commencement address.
 Those who claim that large num- bers of workin gmen in this country could be induced to participate in any attempt to override law and order, misjudge and underrate them," said MT. Gary. The great majority are op- posed and of this majority there are in control the young men and the young women; the pride and security of the nation.
 We may not expect perfection in economic enterprise and management. Perhaps we shall not see universal, uninterrupted tranquility even In this highly civilized, progressive and pros porous country. The working men are credited with worthy achievement or
 charged with lawless and destructive tendencies perhaps In both respects in
 unjustified measure in most instances.
 The final attitude of the large major | ity, certainly in the United States, will
 be right. Their own welfare will be thus promoted.
 Many of the wage earners have become property owners, owning the houses in which they reside. Some
 are holders of interest-bearing secur- ities. The number of this character of investors is increasing. They have as keen a desire to see the institutions of this country protected as those who | have greater riches, and they may be relied upon to lend their influence and | their votes in favor of the protection of property and person. Opportunity must be given to the workmen to in
 crease their pecuniary holdings as far
 as practicable. To this end the em-
 ployers will do their part
 Mir. Gary expressed the opinion | that public sentiment in the future | would have more Influence than ever l upon the attitude of the employers | toward the employees. He declared | that every employe should have the I chance to progress from one position | to another depending upon his merits | and that 'it pays big in dollars and l cents for the employers to maintain working conditions which are bene- | ficiaI to the health and disposition of | the employe."
 Employers and employees, said MT. l Gary, "are not and should not be | considered partners in the sense of | being entitled to the control of the 1 business or to participate in the re- | turn on the capital invested, except | to the extent of contribution by each ] to such capital, for otherwise one | would share in benefits without shar- | ing in the hazard of investment"
