For Those Choking Coughs Those dreadful colds that fairly threaten life, there is one remedy that will bring quick relief, and that is KERR’S FLAX-SEED EMULSION LINONINE. For years this medicine was used ex- clusively by physicians, but it is nov- obtainable at all drug stores. If you are affiicted with cough or cold it will certainly relieve you of it, and at the same time build up the system. Even bronchitis, that most dis- tressing and dreaded of coughs, gives way to the great healing in- fluences of Kerr’s Flax-Seed Emulsion, and it relieves the lungs of congestions and prevents pneumonia. Try it, it is such a relief. Three sizes, 25¢, 50c, $1.00. GERMANY REPLIES 10 AMERICAN PROPOSALS Agrecs to Abandon Submarine Block- ads Under Certain Conditions. Berlin, March 2, Via London.—In its reply to the American note con- cerning the German naval war zone, the German government agrees that, under certain conditions, its subma- rines will halt and investiagte mer- chantmen, and.will proced against only such vessels as are found carr ing contraband or are owned in na- tions hostile to Germany. The reply declares Germany's readi- ness to accept virtually all of the American proposals except the one which would restrict the use of an- chored mines to purely defensive pur- poses. The German government ex- presses the belief that belligerents canont afford to abandon entirely the use of anchored mines for offensive operations. It is willing to consider the abandonment of floating mines, Rules of International Law. In case German submarines take action, after investigation, against merchantmen carrying contraband or owned in hostile countries, it is agreed that such action will be in accordance with the general rules of internation- al law. This presupposes, however, the abandonment of the use of neutral flags by merchantmen of hostile na- tions, or the arming of such mer- chantmen. If such tactics were em- ployed, Germany contends, it would be impossible to restrict the opera- tions of submarings in this manner. The supply suggests that there be constituted in the countries concerned American commissions to which sup- plies of foodstuffs for the use of civil- ian populations could be consigned. This plan, it is said, is contemplated in the American proposals. The re- ply also suggests that these commis- sions should be allowed to import and control the distribution of other articles, especially fedder, which are on the conditional contraband list in the declaration of London. Germany states that interference with articles on the absolute free list in the declar- ation of London should be abandoned. American Spirit of Fairness. “What most impressed us in the American note was the evident spirit of absolute fairness in which the American government approached the problem, and its desire to pro- pose a solution which could be ac- cepted by both sides,” said a high of- ficial of the German government yes- terday. “We endeavored in the reply to follow the same rule. The modifi- cations we suggested are inspired by the desire to round out and complete the American proposals. “We are sure, for instance, that the American government would have inserted the clause covering armed merchantmen if this subject had oc- curred to them. The reservation re- garding the offensive wuse of an- chored mines is justified by MRS. LYON'S AGHES AND PAINS Have All Gone Since Taking Lydia E. Pinkham’s Veg- etable Compound. Terre Hill, Pa.—‘ Kindly permit me to give you my testimonial in favor of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Com- pound. When I first began taking it I was suffering from female troubles for some time and had almost all kinds of aches—pains in low- er part of back and in sides, and press- ing down pains. I - could not sleep and had no appetite. Since I have taken Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Com- pound the aches and pains are all gone and I feel like a new woman. I cannot praise your medicine too highly.”’—Mrs. AvucusTus LyoN, Terre Hill, Pa. It is true that nature and a woman’s work has produced the grandest remedy for woman’s ills that the world has ever known. From the roots and herbs of the field, Lydia E. Pinkham, forty years ago, gave to womankind a remedy for their peculiar ills which has proved more efficacious than any othér combination of drugs ever com- pounded, and today Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound is recognized from coast to coast as the standard remedy for woman’s ills. In the Pinkham Laboratory at Lynn, Mass., are files containing hundreds of thousands of letters from women seek- ing health— many of them openly state over their own signatures that they have regained their health by taking Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound; and in some cases that it has saved them e PHILADELPHIAS DENTAL ROOMt 193 Main Stree Orer 25¢ Store BEST WORK AT MODERATE PRIGES Otiice Open from 8 A. M. 10 8 1.

London, March 3.—A dispatch Reuter’s Telegram company Amsterdam gives the conten American note of Februar) Great Britain and German) thereto. The notes were rcceived in Amsterdam in a dispatch from Ber- lin. The American note expresses the hope that Great Britain and Germany may, by means of reciprocal conces- sions, discover a basis of understand- ing. the result of which would tend to free ships engaged in neutral and peaceful commerce from the serious dangers to which they are exposed in passing through the coastal waters of the belligerent countries. This suggestion, the note procceds to say, should not be considered as a proposal by the American government whom it naturaliy does not behoove to propose conditions for such an agreement though the sue has a direct and far-reaching in- terest for the government and people of the United States. The note says the United States ventures solely to take a liberty, which it convinced can bhe conced- ed to a sincere friend who is actuated by a desire to cause incomvenience to neither of the two nations, and possi- bly serve the common interests of hu- manity. to from s of the Suggestions Made. The suggestion is made that Ger- many and Great Britain should agree, first, that isolated drifting mines should not be laid .by either party. that anchored mines should be exclusively for defensive purposes, within gun range of harbor and that all mines should bear the mark of the government of origin and be so constructed as to become harmles after breaking loose from their an- chorages. It suggested, second, that the submarines of neither of the two gov- ernments should be employed to at- tack merchant vessels of any nation- alit except for the purpose of car- ng out' the right of holding them up and searching them;- and, third, that mercantile ships of neither of the par should employ neutral flags as a war ruse or for the purpose of concealing th identity. Britain, it is suggested, agree that foodstuffs shall not be placed on the list of absolute con- traband, and that the British authori- ties shall neither disturb nor hold up cargoes of such goods when addressed to agencies in Germany, the names of which are communicated by the Unit- ed States government for the purpose of receiving such goods and handing them over to licensed German retail- ers for further distribution ex- clusively to the civie population. Germany, it is contended, should de- clare her agreement that foodstuffs from the United States, or any other neutral country, shall be addressed to such agencies. “inally, the American EER it wishes to safeguard itself against the idea that it either ac- nowledges or repudiates any right on the part of belligerents or neutrals established on the principles of inter- national law. The American gov- is government ernment would rather regard such an | agreement as a modus vivendi which is based more on suitableness than on legal right. The German Reply. | The German reply to the note of the United States was dispatched last Sunday. It begins as follows: “The German government has taken | note of the American suggestion with | lively interest and proof of friendly feelings, which fully reciprocated by Germany. suggestion corresponds also man wishes that the na be waged without subjecting cne or belligerent powers to strictions of methods sees therein new are The the Ger- al war should according to rules which, the other one_sided re- of warfare, would take into consideration the in- | terests of neutrals as well as the laws of humanity. “In this sense the German note of February 16 has already pointed out that the observance of the London declaration by Germany’s enemies would create a new situation, from which Germany would gladly be pre- pared to draw conclusions. ‘“Starting from this conception, the German government has submitted the American suggestion ta amination and believes that it can recognize therein an effectively suit- able ba for a practical solution of the question at issue. Particular Suggestions, On particular suggestions tained in the American note lowing remarks are made: “G would be prepared rermany make the suggested declaration con- the fol- con- cerning the non-employment of drift_ | ing mines and the construction of anchored mine and further agrees with the suggestion to attach a gov- ernment mark to any mines which may be laid. On the other hand, it pears to Germany not to be practi- cable for the belligerent powers ful to renounce the employment of an- chored mines for offensive purposes. “Second: German submarines would employ force against mercantile ve: sels of whatsoever flag only insofar as it is required for the purpose of carrying out the right to hold up and search. If the hostile naticnality of a ship or the presence of contra- band were proved, the submarines would proceed according to the gen- eral international rules. Use of Neatral Flags, “Third: As the American notes provide for the above mentioned re- striction in the employment of sul- marines, it follows that enemy mer- cantile vessels should abstain from the use of neutral flags and other neutra] signs, In this connection it is obvious that hostile mercantile ves- sels should not be armed and should question at is- | attentive ex- | to | ap- | to | reply | fact, exceeding many times F.
