Sciiurz on War.
The New York World ask ?d Carl
Sehurz for his opinion as to the
possibility of a war with Germany.
His reply was positive and forceful.
He said that a war between the
United States and Germany would
be so awful, so incalculable a calami
ty, that only the most absolute and
evident necessity could serve as an
excuse for it; that not even the wild
est jingo on either side would pre
tend that such a necessity existed
or was in prospect; that there was
no real question of difference what
ever between the two countries im
portant enough to disturb their
ancient friendship; that a war be
tween them would therefore be not
only criminal but idiotic —an absurd
atrocity, a murderous uonsense.
‘‘Even to suggest the possibility of
such a war,” added Mr. Sehurz, ‘‘un
der such circumstances and to agitate
the public mind by such suggestions,
is a piece of mischievous reckless
ness.”
Mr. Sehurz is eminently right in
deprecating war. He is also right
in saying there is no necessity for
war. He will have to allow a little
latitude, however, for discussion on
the subject, and even speculation.
There have been wars which were
necessary —wars which were crimin
al. idiotic, absurd, atrocious, mur
derous —and their absurdity did not
prevent great loss of life and expendi
ture of money. Those conflicts in
which both sides were right—each
from its point of view—have been
very few. That one country has
wanted war has seemed to be an al
most inevitable conclusion from in
cidents of the blockade of Venezuel
an ports. The Enquirer agrees with
Mr. Sehurz, thab chances are against
war with Germany; but if there is to
be no conflict it wiil not be because
jingoes in high places are not trying
to make one. —Cincinnati Enquirer.

It’ll Be “Alle Same**.”
When Pere Marquette built his mission
Something like two centuries ago.
And when Grosseilliers and Radison
Plowed up through the northern sntw,
When Hiawatha and laughing Minnel aha
Were creatures of a time most sweet
And Rip Van Winkle dropped to slumber
And snoozed until liis whiskers grew “a leet”
And back in days of Gitcliee Gurnee
You may then have heard of the Jladger st; te
From tlie dim past down to present
Human nature has had the same gate.
For as sure as Nero was a fiddler
Or as great Ceasar ruled Rome,
And as certain as Cleopatra and Antony
Sung the old. old song of Home, Sweet He me
Though Pochahontus sived a captain
And Lipton lost many a race—
Vet human nature kept the same pace—;
And politicians in the days of Bob and ’CS
Will use the new fangled primary
To make voters climb a tree
Our print-shops will get the profits.
Bob will have all the fame
But conditions—well
They’llle the same.
Brain-Food Nonsense.
Another ridiculous food fad has
been branded by the most compe
tent authorities. They have dis
pelled the silly notion that one kind
of food is needed for brain, another
for muscles, and still another for
bones. A correct diet wiil not only
nourish a particular part of the
body, but it will sustain every other
Dart. Yet, however good your food
miv be, its nutriment is destroved
bv indigestion or dyspepsia. You
must prepare for their appearance
or prevent their coming by taking
regular doses of Green’s August
Flower, the favorite medicine of the
healthy millions. A few doses aids
digestion, stimulates the liver to
healthy action, purifies the blood,
and makes you feel buoyant and vig
orous. Y~ou can get this reliable re
medy at Frost & Spies. Price 2cc
and 75c.
Woman and Jewels.
Jewels, candy, flowers, man —that
is the orders of a woman’s prefer
ences. Jewels form a magnet of
mighty power to the average wo
man. Even that greatest of all
jewels, health; is often ruined in the
strenous efforts to make or save the
money to purchase them. If a
woman will risk her health to get a
coveted gem, then let her fortify
herself against the insiduous con
sequences of coughs, colds and
bronchial affections by the regular
use of Dr, Bosehee’s German Syrup.
It will promptly arrest consumption
in its early stages and heal the af
fected lung and bronchial tubes and
drive cut the dread disease from the
system. It is not a cure-all, but it
is a certain cure for coughs, colds
and all bronchial troubles. You can
get this reliable remedy at Frost
& Spies. Price 25c and 75c.
Baby sleeps and grows while mam
ma rests if Rocky Mountain is given.
It’s the greatest baby medicine ever
effered loving mothers. 35 cents.

THE WASHBURN TIMES, THURSDAY, MARCH 5.
Uses of Salt.
Do you know that common salt,
dampened, will remove the discolo
ration on cups and saucers which is
the result of tea and coffee and
careless washing? That it will take
the egg stain from silver? That it
will restore in great measure colors
faded in washing or keep them from
fading if used in the rinsing water?
That nothing cleans China matting
or willow furniture so well as a salt
and water scrubbing with a scrub
bing brush? That it is an excellent
dentifrice? That if the chimney
gets on fire salt put upon the fire
will deaden the flame? And how
many even old cooks know that
when the blaze from dripping fat
on the coals is charring the steak
they are broiling the trouble can be
stopped by throwing a little salt on
the fire ?
Warring Birds.
An unwritten law of birddom
seems to be that it is never worth
while to resist an opponent who
seems to be in deadly earnest unless
you have reason to be in deadly ear
nest yourself. One result of this is
that you often see large birds fly
ing in apparent terror before angry
small ones. A correspondent men
tions having seen missel thrush pur
sued by sparrow, rook by missel
thrush, sparrowhawk by rook and
missel thrush hv wren. So that we
have a circle which could he indefi
nitely expanded with intermediate
graduations, showing how little log
ic there is in the warfare of wild
birds. —Country Life.
Personal Experience
The strongest recommendation
that a kidney cure can have, is that
it will cure Bright's Disease. We
know of no case that Dr. Gossom’s
Kidney aud Bladder Cure will not
cure. Convince yourself by trying
it, 50c a box Frost & Spies.
Inflamed Bladder
“For three years I suffered so
from inflamation of the bladder that
I could not hold my water, but one
box of Dr. Gossom’s Kidney and
Bladder Cure made me a healthy
man again. A. E. Branton, 14 E,
Madison st, Chicago, 50c a box.

IBIACItDRAUCHT!
| THE GREAT [
IfAHIUr Ml DICINEJ
Thedford’s Black-Draught has
saved doctors’ bills for more than
sixty years. For the common fam
ily ailments, such as constipation,
indigestion, hard colds, bowel com
plaints, chills and fever, bilious
ness, headaches and other like
complaints no other medicine is
necessary. It invigorates and reg
ulates the liver, assists digestion,
stimulates action of the kidneys,
Eurifies the blood, and purges the
owels of foul accumulations. It
cures liver complaint, indigestion,
sour stomach, dizziness, chills,
rheumatic pains, sideache, back
ache, kidney troubles, constipation,
diarrhoea, biliousness, piles, hard
colds and headache. Every drug
gist has Thedford’s Black-Draught
in 25 cent packages and in mam
moth size for SI.OO. Never accept
a substitute. Insist on having the
original made by the Chattanooga
Medicine Company.
I believe Thedford's Black-Draught
is the best medicine on earth. It is
good for any and everything. I have
a family of twelve children, and for
four years I have kept them on foot
and healthy with no doctor but Black-
Draught. A. J. GREEN, Hiewara, La. i
A Weak
Stomach
Indigestion Is often caused by over
eating. An eminent authority says
the harm done thus exceeds that from
the excessive use of alcohol. Eat all
the good food you want but don’t over
load the stomach. A weak stomach
may refuse to digest what you eat.
Then you need a good digestant like
Kodol, which digests your food with
out the stomach’s aid. This rest and
the wholesome tonics Kodol contains
soon restore health. Dieting unneces
sary. Kodol quickly relieves the feel
ing of fulness and bloating from
which some people suffer after meals.
Absolutely cures indigestion.
