London, Feb. 20.---The German gov ernment is rushing preparations to try Germans accused of violations of the laws of warfare, and examination Of witnesses and arguments will begin next week, according to a Berlin dis patch to the Central News.

 Vednesday, says a Berlin dispatch to

 It will be contended, the dispatch states, that accusations against sev- eral persons, notably Field Marshal Won Hindeniburg, General Ludendorf and Admiral Won Tirpitz, are too gen eral. Newspapers at Berlin declare the imperial public prosecutor will be required to test allegations and make inquiries, and he may conclude there are no grounds for instituting pro- ceedings.
 London, Feb. 20---Persons living in Great Britain, France and Belgium who are witnesses against Germans accused of war crimes will not have to go to Germany to testify, according to a Berlin dispatch to the Exchange Telegraph Company today.

New York, Feb. 20.---Rear Admiral Robert E. Peary's success in reaching the North pole was due to his intro duction of common sense methods into Arctic exploration, in the opinion of Vilhjamur Stefa nsson, the Arctic ex- plorer, expressed here today.
 Admiral Peary's greatest contribu- ton to exploration was the introdue- ton of common sense,'' he said. 'Pre- viously more emphasis had been laid on the heroism and tests of endurance developed by trips into the north. Peary adopted the methods of the Els quimaux, which were less dramatic because they reduced hardship and suffering to a minimum. In that way he traveled in comparative comfort iE the winter, the season found hardest by his predecessors.
 T think that Admiral Peary was easily the foremost explorer who ever ventured into the north.'

Loeary, DisCOverer Of
 North Pole, Died Today
SUFFERER FOR SEVERAL YEARS FROM PER VICIOUS ANEMIA-MADE SEVEN AT
 TEMPTs TO REACH POLE

Washington; Feb. 20 - Rear Ad- miral Robert Edwin Peary. retired Arctic explorer and discoverer of the North Pole, died at his home here to- day from pernicious anemia, from which he had suffered for several years. Arrangements for the funeral have not been completed, but he will be buried with full naval honors.
 Admiral Peary submitted to blood transfusion at a hospital here ten days ago. He later was removed to his home and his condition then was reported as somewhat improved. He gradually grew weaker, however. and the end came early this morning. Dr. H. F. Strine, the admiraIs physician, disclosed that the transfusion this month was the 18th to which Admiral Peary had submitted within two years.
 Admiral Peary was 64 years old and entered the navy as a civil en- gineer on Oct. 26, 1881. He was as- sistant engineer, Nicaragua ship can al, under government orders 1884 S5. Returning to the United States he became interested in Arctic ex- plorations and 34 years ago he made his first trip to the North, making a reconnaissance of the Greenland in- land ice cape east of Disco Bay.
 Two years thereafter he was en- gineer in charge of the Nicaragua canal surveys and invented rolling lock gates for the canal, but the lure of the Arctic was on him and he again turned to the northward. In June. 1891, he led his first big polar expedition, being head of the Arctic expedition of the Academy of Natural Science, Philadelphia.
 Admiral Peary made seven other expeditions in the Arctic before he finally reached the pole, returning in 1909 to find that Dr. Frederick A. Cook was being praised as the dis coverer.
 In 1913 he was promoted to the rank of Rear Admiral in the navy and given the thanks of Congress by a spe- cial act. Turing his attention to avi- ation, Admiral Peary became a strong advocate of aircraft development by 1 the government.

The Right Treatment Will Breal
Your Shackles.

You who are afflicted with Rheu-
matism know from experience just
how excrutiating the pangs of the
disease are. You know also, if
you have had rheumatism for any
length of time that there is no real
relief to be expected from the use
of 1iniments and lotions.
: Rheumatism, is stubborn dis
ease, and its pangs and pains
cannot be wiped out as if by ma
gic. A disease that is SO full of
torture and renders so many peo-
pie absolutely helpless, is "a deep-
seated one; it is not on the sur
face, hence it cannot be reached
by external, surface remedies.
: Lotions, 1iniments and ointments
applied to the surface may in
some cases deaden the pain for the
time being, but until you attack the
disease at its foundation, you are
making no progress toward
cure. Many forms of Rheumatism
are caused by millions of tiny
germs that infest the blood, and
until the blood is absolutely freed
of these germs, there is no real
relief in sight.
In fact the longer you delay
treating the disease through the
Richmond daily register. (Richmond, Madison County, Ky.) 1917-1978, 1920-01-28
Free Yourself From
The Pangs Of Rheumatism

blood, the further you are getting
from Kidding yourself from the dis
ease. And because so many people
treat the pain, and not the disease
itself, is one reason why Rheuma-
tism increases in severity year
by year.
The most satisfactory remedy
for Rheumatism is S. S. S., because
it IS one of the most thorough
blood purifiers known to medical
science. This fine old remedy
'cleanses the blood of all impuri-
ties and is a sure antidote to the
germs OF rheumatism. Being pure
ly vegetable, without a particle
OF, mineral or chemical in its COM
position, if works by eliminating
and forcing out of the blood all
Impurities, acting a a tonic to the
entire system at the same time.
1t has been used for more than
fifty years, and scores of sufferers
from rheumatism give it unstinted
praise.
S. S. S. is sold by druggists ev-
erywhere, and any of them will
tell you that it is a thoroughly
honest and reliable old remedy.
You are invited to write our medi-
cal department for full informa-
ton and advice about the treat
ment OF your own case, for which
no charge is made. Address Chief
