REPLY TO GERMAN NOTE.
Allies Express Satisfaction With Some
German Views.

BERLIN. via Basic, Dec 26.-The
allies reply to the latest German note
regarding the peace treaty protocol was
published here today. The first para
graph OF reply expressed satisfaction
that the Germans share the point OF view
with the allies that the dispositions of
the treaty OF peace are applicable from
the moment of the treaty's entry into
force, whether ratification by the United
States has or has not occurred. The
allies take note that Germany admits in
principle that no contracting party can
refer 10 the non participation Of tine
United States in the first deposit of rati-
fication documents a. a ground for ques-
tioning any stipulation OF the treaty.

Cured His Rheumatism

81 am eighty-three years old and
doctored for rheumatism ever since l
came out of the army, over 90 years
ago. Like many others, | spent
money freely for so-called cures and
l have read about Uric Acid until |
could almost taste it, | could not
sleep nights or walk without pain;
my hands were so sore and stlIi L
could not hold a pen. But now / am
again in active business and can walk
with ease or write all day with com
fort. Friends are surprised at the
change" You might just as well at
tempt to put out fire with oil as try
to get rid of your rheumatism, neurl-
tbs and like complaints by taxing
treatment supposed to drive Urlc
Acid out of your blood and body! 1t
took Mr.. Ashelman fifty years to hnd
out the truth. He learned how to get
rid of the true cause of his rheuma-
tism, other disorders and recover his
strength from The Inner Mysteries,
now being distributed free by an au-
thority who devoted over twenty
years to the scientific study of this
trouble. If any reader of The Tele-
graph wishes The Inner Mysteries

tors and scientists for centuries past,

Reunion Chairman Sends
Apology For Language

WayncsbOrO. Pa, July 12.-Letters
of protest sent from Waynesboro to
the Rev. DR.. c. w. Enders. chairman
OF the Lutheran Pen Mar Reunion
committee. because he had made use
of certain German phrases in his re-
union invitations, such os "Her
Stech Ich," anr Elm Fest Burg"
have elected from him the following
explanation and apology:
II did not think there would be
objection to using the title of the
hymn in German as it was used in
Luther's time. Had 1 known there
would be objection to quoting Mar
tin Luther in his own language I
would have used English transla
tions, but it never entered my mind
that offense would be given. To those
who have taken offense, 1 say that
I regret it very much"
A second invitation is to be sent
out. 1t closes with the sentence.
The exercises will close with the
singing of The Star Spangled Ban
ner," and Nearer. My God, to Thee"
The local protestants are now willing
