Copies of his address had been for- warded to American diplomats in all the belligerent countries for the in- formation of the Foreign Offices. Back of the fundamental proposal for ,Iome sort of international sanction Colonel Herbert Bruce, late In- spector-General Canadian Medical Services, has been offered and has accepted the position of Consulting Surgeon with the British forces in France under the War Office. Here are briefly the terms which President Wilson laid down: (1) That the peace must be a peace without Victory, that it must be a peace agreed to by “equals,” and not dic- tated by victors; (2) That it shall make no effort to draw distinctions between the rights of big and small nations; (3) That it shall be a peace based on the principle that all Gov- ernments derive their authority from the consent of the governed. That it shall abandon the idea that big nations have the right to dispose of small nations. That it shall recognize among other things a free and united Poland; (4) That all nations of Europe shall be accorded free outlets to the seas; (5) That the treaty of eace shall recognize in theory and in t the principle of the absOlute free- dom of the seas; (6) That the peace lhall look to the limitation of naval and military armaments, and shall make possible an abandonment of the m, \f‘ents for military prepared- ness?

For the first time in over a century a President appeared in the Senate chamber to discuss foreign relations after the manner of Wash- ington, Adams and Madison. The et- kect was to leave everyone amazed and bewildered. Immediately there arose a sharp division of opinion over the propriety as well as the substance 01' the President’s Proposal.

A second brilliant trench raid by Canadians in daylight was chronicled in an official report by Sir Douglas Haig last week as follows: “Wednes- day morning another very successful daylight raid was carried out by Can- adian troops northeast of Cite Calon- ne. The attacking party entered the enemy’s trenches on a front of seven hundred yards and penetrated to a depth of 300 yards as far as his second line. Here also heavy losses were inflicted on the enemy, and all his dugouts were completely 'wrecked. We captured one officer and ninety- nine other ranks, two machine guns and a trench mortar. Our artillery and machine guns co-operated very effectively with the infantry. Our casualties were again small.” More than 428,000 officers and men were taken prisoners by the Russians .during the past year and 525 guns Captured, according to tie Russian service organ. Enemy’s Second Line of Trenches Reached in Daylight Raid The report from British Headquar- ters in France issued Sunday night reads: “A successful daylight raid was made this morning against enemy trenches southeast of Loos. Dug-outs full of Germans were bombed and de- stroyed. Many casualties were in- flicted upon the enemy at small cost' to ourselves. We secured some prisoners." This raid was probably‘ carried out by the Canadian trooys, who are believed to hold the line to? a considerable distance both north and tenth of Loos.

This medicine acted upon me in a wonderful manner. I never have talgen any medicine so helpful in such quick time. I do wish anyone in need of such a remedy would give it a trial. (Signed) G. H.

NOTE: Folks in town and adjoining counties are deli hted with the results they have obtaine by using “ AN URI 0,” the newest discovery of Dr. Pierce, who is head of the INV’ALIDS’ HOTEL and SURGICAL INSTITUTE, in Buffalo, N. Y. Those who started the da with a back- ache, stiff legs, arms an muscles, and an aching head (worn out before the day began because they were in and out of bed half a dozen times at night) are appreciating the perfect rest, comfort and new strength they obtained from Dr. Pierce’s Anuric Tablets. To prove that this is a certain uric acid solvent and conquers headache, kidney and bladder diseases and rheumatism, if you’ve never used the “Anuric,” cut this out and send ten cents to Doctor Pierce for a large sample package. This will prove to you that “Anuric” is thirty-seven times more active than lithia in eliminating uric acid-and the most perfect kidney and bladder cor- rector. If you are a sufferer, go to your best druggist and ask for a 50-cent box of “Anuric.” You run no risk for Dr. Pierce’s ood name stands behind this wonderfu new discovery as it has for the past half century for his “Golden Medical Discovery” which makes the blood pure, his “ avorite Prescription” for weak women and “Pleasant Pellets” for liver ills.
