the larger cut surface exposed to the
direct heat of the oven. The part with
the greatest surface of fat should be

Herb Extract
Relieved Every
Ache and Pain
Says 1t Is
Indeed a
Wonder
full
Medicine

For more than a year Miller's
Herb Extract formerly called Herb
Juice) has been on sale by the
Peoples Drug Stores. During this
time special representative for this
medicine has been on duty daily
at store No. 2, sos 7th st. NV,
to explain this medicine to the hun
dreds that call each week. Thou
sands have marveled at the way the
Herb Extract overcomes ailments
of long standing and, like Miss Han
back, who resides at 1882 G st. Sc,
say that such a remedy cannot be
praised too highly, Miss Hanback,
said: For a couple of years suffered
with rheumatism, and medicine I
used helped very little, my joints
would be swollen at times and
the pain was so severe l could hardly
stand it. Then was also troubled a
great deal with my stomach, every
thing I ate caused gas to form, the
lower part of my stomach felt sore,
I felt nervous and was continually
taking a laxative. I have now used
six bottles of Miller's Herb Extract
and as I have often remarked I
cannot praise it too highly; first of
all it relieved me of the rheumatic
pains and that alone was worth all
1t cost, to say nothing of the other
ways it helped me. I am now able
to eat anything I want, no sign of
gas or indigestion; in fact every ache
and pain is gone and feel better in
every way than have for years.
can also recommend this medicine
as being the ideal laxative and a
very good regulator for the entire
system" See the special representa-
tives direct from the Laboratories at
their headquarters in Peoples Drug
Store, sos 7th st. NV, Washington,

they are now introducing and ex-
planning the merits Of this famous
medicine.

SANTA To CONE.

Santa Claus is keeping right
up with the times, children, and
this year he's going to give all
the youngsters in washington a
big thrill when he comes to town
Monday. He's coming in a zep-

Yes, sir, Santa Claus is going

school and can see him.
When the Goodyear Zeppelin
comes over Washington Monday
Santa Claus will be right up
there in it where all the young
sters can see >hin-or see the
airship, anyway-and where he
can see the children and pick
out the bad fcom the good ones.
OF course that doesn't mean
that the bad ones he sees won't
get presents. If they stop being
bad and are good until Christ
mas, he'll give them a lot of
things.
The Zeppelin is going to carry
Santa around and over the city,
first over the outer edges, then
in smaller circles until the ship
is travelling in little circle right
over the Palais Royal. Then
Santa is going to Hoover Air
port and get into an automo.
bile and ride to the Palais Royal.
At the store, he is going to
talk to the children who are
there to greet him. He's think
ing of giving them balloons that
look like his Zeppelin, too. It's
going to be a great sight, so
don't forget to be out where you
can see the jolly old man in
his atrship.

MIXED CLAIM
BQ.DYDEN|ES
DAMAGES
No Evidence of Sabotage In
Two Great Industrial Fires
Revealed, Report Declares

Charges of Il years standing,
that Germany was responsible fer
starting fires that wrecked the
Black Tom yards of the Lehigh
Valley railroad on the Jersey side
Of New York harbor,s in 1916, and
swept the Kingsland IN. ID NUM-
tions plant just before this cour1'
try entered the World War, in
1917, were dropped today.
The German-American Mixed
Claims Commission, after years of
investigation, decided at a hear
ing at The Hague that Germany
was not responsible for the two
disasters, the State Department
announced today. The decision
was unanimous and saves Ger
many $6O,00O,O0o.
Losses Were Heavy
Damages incurred in the terrnl-
nal fire, in which many carloads
of shells and INT were exploded,
were estimated at $42,00o,OO and
those at the munitions plant at
$4,000, 900. The decision said:
eve are convinced that 1t
(the Black Tom fire. was not
attributable to Hinsch and Kris
foff."
Kristoif, an anarchist and now
dead. had no connection with the
German government, the commits
sion said, and HinSch was Gel
man agent.
The findings added:
"We are quite . long way
from being convinced that the
fire was caused by any Ger
man agent"
The investigation revealed, how.
ever, that Nadolny, connected
with the German foreign office
In 1915, instructed Count Won
Bernstorff, Germany's amhassa-
dor to the United States, to I'm.
dertake sabotage in the United
states but found the ambassador
did nothing in the way of ex-
ercising this particular authority"
The commission admitted 1t was
inclined to doubt the faith Of
Nadolny's testimony. He is now
German ambassador to Turkey.
A German named Hermann, a
former diplomat in the German
embassy in Chile but in this
country in 1917, attempted to
hold his government responsible
for the fire at the ammunition
factory. He testified he paid two
employees to start the fire. The
workmen denied this and fellow
employees told how hard they had
tried to smother the flames.
Had Lost Post
The commission found Herr
lnann's testimony was prompted
by the fact he has lost his post
In Chile.
The commission S composed Of
two Americans, Roland w. Boy
den and Chandler p. Anderson,
and one German commissioner
Wilhelm Kiesselbach. Germany
agreed to abide by its findings.
Although absolved from blame
for causing the two fires the Ger
man government has to pay a
total Of $3.50 100000 to American
firms all citizens for war dam
ages, principally done by sub
marines. Germany already has
paid $50, 000,Q 900 Of this amount.
