Says His Prescription
Has Powerful Influence
Over Rheumatism

Mr. James Fl Allen suffered for years
with rheumatism. Many times this ter
rible disease left HIM helpless and unable
70 work
He finally decided after years of
ceaseless study that no one can be
free from rheumatism until the accunu-
lated impurities. commonly called uric
acid deposits were dissolved in the joints
and muscles and expelled from the body
With this idea in mind he consulted
physicians, made experiments and finally
compounded a prescription that quickly
and completely banshed every sign and
symptom Of rheumatism from his system
He freely gave his discovery toothers.
who took it, with what might to be
called marvellous success. After years Of
urging he decided to let sufferers every
where know about his discovery through
the newspapers. \ b. Danforth has been
appointed agent for Allenrhu in this
vicinity with the understanding that
he viii freely return the purchase money
on the first two bottles to all who state they
received no benefit.

U. S. ASKS FOR BERGDOLL.
Washington Makes Formal Re-
quest on Germany for Draft
Dodger and Deserter.

Washington, March 24.-The United
states government has transmitted to
the German government a formal re-
quest Tor the surrender of Grover Berg
doll. wealthy draft evader, now in
Baden, Germany. This request was
transmitted some time ago and the re-
action from II has not been favorable
to date
The American communication was a
request, not demand, and is under
stood TO have been transmitted through
Gen. Allen. commander Of the Arneri-
can force on the Rhine. and Commits
sioner Dreael at Berlin.
IL is predicted that unless the German
government takes steps 10 surrender
BergdolI to the American military au-
thorities within n reasonable time other
means will be taken to bring him out
The situation. however. is embarras-
sing because Of the technical state of
war.
The testimony of German police Of
ficials that they had co-operated with
Neuf and thinner in rounding IN
American descrters outside Of the occu-
pied area around C0blenz greatly
strengthens the hand Of the United
states IT happens that in the matter
of Bergdoll the detectives were up
against a much harder proposition than
In running down n simple case Of
desertion from the American force at

So far as could he ascertained today,
the Berlin authorities made the plea In
the case of Bergdoll that local senti-

LOCAL ADJUSTMENTS
THE STAGE.
"A Dangerous Maid" at Playhouse.

"A Dangerous Maid" is coming to
engagement. She is appearing in the
title role of musical comedy which
Edgar MacGregor is presenting here.
If "A Dangerous Maid" AS a play. did
nothing else than bring Creighton Hale
back to the stage. il has accomplished
something for which Il will be remem-
bered. Young Hale is even better on
the stage than on the screen. to which
he has been devoting the past few years
with the result that he now stands
among the most popular OF the silent
dramas leading men. In ~ Dangerous
Maid" he is entrusted with the role of
yonug society bo .u, who has lost his
heart to a stage divinity. who has the
male youth of her circles by the ears
In addition to Creighton Hale the other
stars who appear in the company are
Juanita Fletcher Juliette Day Amelia
Bingham, Vinton Freedley, Arthur
Shaw. Frederic Burt and others.
Comic Acrobats at The Garrick.
The four Camerons. who are appear
ing at the Garrick Theatre this week,

features. perhaps. is the rextcrity with
which they can handle bicycles while
doing comedy stunts. They have a way
of their own. @ of the men jumps

cycle and another while lying on his
back. There are also good singers and
dancers.

mnnd his surrender 10 tho American
military authorities.
In tho case Of Neuf and Zimmer Bes-
lin officials made the plea that they
could not interfere in the proceeding "
until the men had been brought TO
trial on the charge Of attempted kid
mapping, which resulted in the acci-
dental wounding of a. young woman
who WAS accompanying Bergdoil. The
correspondence leads To the belief that
Neuf and thinner viii be paxdoned and
released In the near future by the Berlin
authorities, who have indicated a dispo-
sition to go as far as possible in meet
ing the wishes Of the United States.

VETERANS SCHOOL
NEAR CITY Is PLAN
lnterlaken Institution May Be
Taken Over by Federal
VOcatioal Board.

WASHINGTON. July 1.-The fed
eral board OF vocational education
has under consideration the selection
of Interlaken school, near Rolling
Prairie, Ind, as a location for the
training of disabled soldiers Of the
world war. Rep. A. j. Hickey
brought to the attention of the board
Interlaken when he learned that the
federal board was considering the To-
cation of a school for the training
of the disabled and urged it's selec-
ton. Interlaken has been under ad-
visement by the board. No decision
has been made but it looks highly
probable that Interlaken will be Sc
lected.
An investigator will likely be sent
to Interlaken within a few days by
the board. He will report upon the
feasibility of taking over the school
for training purposes.
Colleges Are Full.
The colleges and universities of the
country are unable TO train all of the
war veterans who seek vocational
training and it is necessary that an
additional school be- opened. The
plan OF the board is to lease the
school for a period of three TO five
years from the owners. Between 500
and 600 men wiz go into training i'm
mediately If the proposal is accept
ed All courses offered at other sim
liar training centers will be given.
The corps of instructors will number
about 60.
Interlaken was founded in 1910 by
DR.. Edward Rumely. II was at that
time located northwest OF Laporte.
Later the school was moved TO Inter-
laken. near Rolling Prairie, about
seven miles east of Laporte. A num-
Der of buildings were erected to ac-
commodate boy students. Many of
these buildings were constructed by
the students themselves.
During the war the government
took over Interlaken and it was used
as cantonment. A large number Of
soldiers were stationed at the camp
and were trained. A number of ad-
ditiOnal buildings were erected by
the government and at the present
time il is an excellent location for
the training of the disabled soldiers.

STYLE COMMANDS
RESURRECTION OF
MILADY'S CORSET
Dieting and Exercise Won't
Keep You in Shape Like
Sturdy Armor.

Los ANGELES, July 2.-Take
good firm hold on both strings and
pull. for the corset is coming back.
Waist-line circumference will be-
come smaller, also. This will mean
adde d strain on the corsets strings,
more rigid dieting and additional
rigOrs of exercise.
So ofar as youthful feminity is
concerned the corset has been away
for a long time.
The boys have missed tin the
shadowy corners where stolen hugs
were surreptitiously exchanged and
lights, where the arms Of dancing
partners were entwined.
The girls have missed tin not
having a firm foundation for stock
ing supporters and a rigid anchorage
for detached skirts.
Yes femininity is to again don
I its armOr," said Madame Adele,
formerly Of Paris, who is connected
with a popular Los Angeles estab-
Iishment that caters 10 the worlds
best-known motion picture actresses.
IF one will refer TO history. es-
\ pecially the history of France, it
will be found that after each great
war women go oback to what were
formerly popular forms of dress, y
/ continued Madame Adele. During
! the World War the women Of France
dressed as simply as they could and
with the greatest freedom to be pos
sibly obtained. Now they are going
lin for common-sense corsets, and
the movement is spreading to other
/ sections of the world.
To Make Contours Supple.
But. with the return of corsets
as a proper and fashiona BILE form OF
dress, one must not presume that
he old-fashioned heavy boned cor
sets will come into favor, for they
won't. The popular corsets Of the
immediate future will be light
boned or elastic-webbed creations,
leaving the figures of their wearers
entirely natural and very supple.
1T is my belief that American
women will become educated TO the
custom of having their corsets prop
erly fitted. As an improperly fitted
/ corset is not only bad for health.
but is a poor investment, for it will
not give good wear.
! "High-grade corsets will cost just
a little more than before the war.
but the change will not make much
/ difference TO American women, for
they usually want the best quality
+ OF everything in their apparel.
Since Los Angeles has become
the worlds capital of motion pic
ture production It has become a
great fashion center. IL is now al
most on a par with New York in
that respect, and II il continues TO
attract as many fine stores as in the
last few years it will excel Paris in
.lmany respects before another de-
cade has passed"
/ But. anyhow. corsets won't JOIN
