Z Several New Ulm business houses
might now be without homes had it
not been for the fortunate return Of
Clarence Herzog to the Schmucker &:
5Burk pharmacy last Wednesday even
ing. After the drug store had been
closed for the night, Mr.. Herzog, who
is employed as clerk, came back t.
the store on an errand. He opened
the door leading to the basement and
was met by a rush of smoke. 4.
Investigation showed that fire had
started under the sidewalk in front of
the store. Flames were burning ad-
.vertising material which was kept in
thi' space by the pharmacy. No one
knows how the material became ig-
nited.
The fire department. responded i'm
mediately and the 4 flames were ex-
tinguished. While the damage done
was negligible it could easily have be-
come a disastrous fire had the flames
burned through to the chemicals stored
in the basement, many of which are Of
a highly explosive nature.

Dr.. q. J. seifert Writes Of
Conditions in Berlin
And Vienna.
ONE AMERICAN DOLLAR
WORTH OR 1000 MARKS
Board and Room For Two
Can Be Secured At
$6 A Week.

Dr. and Mrs. O.J. Seifert are paying
~ 900 marks a week for room and
board in Berlin. Butter is 1900 marks
a pound, beefsteak 800 marks, and a
pint Of milk costs, 120 marks. Eggs
sell for so marks each.
This is the information in letter
received this week by the Reuiew from
Dr.. Seifert. And while the prices are
working great hardship on the German
people they are not exorbitant for one
who has American money. Dr..
Seifert declares that he receives 1900
marks for one American dollar. This
makes the board and room bill of DR..
and Mrs. Seifert amount to but Sc
week. el.t sss s
Poor Suffer Hardships.
For the poor German people,
living expenses are out of reach" Dr.;
Seifert writes. Il cannot see how they.
manage it. Actually some of them
are living on nothing but bread and
water.
etsThe working girls atour hotel re-
ceive 1000 marks month. A mod
erately good dress will cost about
$4,000 marks while the price Of a good
dress is $4,000 marks. The middle
class, the Intelligentia, the old people
who have retired and the poor class
are suffering terribly. These are the
persons who need help. s5sss
Will Stay In Berlin
DR.: Seifert states that they will
remain in Berlin for the present and
not Vienna. Conditions in Vienna at
the present time, he asserts, are dis
rupted and living expenses much
higher than in Berlin or the States.
my work here is very interesting
and the hospitals are oyercrowded, !"
the Doctor says. People cannot
afford to go to the doctor with the
result that they visit the charity
hospitals. The physicians have d

ton they should at least receive the
price Of a pound Of butter, but very

Importance of Intellect

This should not lead us to conclude

Why We Hate to Use Our Heads
The aim of life in man is physical
and mental activity. In the vegetable
it. is immobility; and much that is in,
us is of the vegetable. "It seems
most probable" he remarks with his
usual profundity, "that the animal
cell and the vegetable cell are derived
from a common stock, and that the
first living organism osclllated be-
tween the vegetable and the animal
form,. participating in both at once
The consciousness in the vegetable
cell cannot be SO sound asleep that
it cannot rouse itself when circum-
stances permit or demand it; and the
evolution Of the animal kingdom has
always been retarded or stopped or
dragged back by the tendency it has
kept toward the vegetative life -.
However, full, however overhowing
the activity of an animal species may
appear, torpor and Inconsistencies
are always lying in wait for it."
It is. a. well known fact to biolog1c
science that the vegetable often be-
trays signs Of consciousness. 1t may

feeding that show traces Of mtelll-
eence. On the other hand, we are

God, according. to his understand

it has created as it fell from the
