Belgrade, Dec. 18.—FEuropean poli- not greatly interest the Ser- bian kings before Pete if the con- tents of the royal library can he re garded as throwing light on the stud- jes of the kingdom’s rulers. No books of importance on political sub- jects were acquired before Peter's accession, but a very respectable number were added to the library in the twelve years of his reign. Another department of the library dating from his time is looked upon by the German and Austro-Hungarian conquerers of the city as significant. It is devoted to catalogues and works of general information concerning great arms factories of the world, in- cluding Putiloff, Creusot, Armstrong and Krupp. Many excellent pictures are included: in this department.

A Vienna librarian, for the last fifteen years in charge of the Oriental language department of the Vienna royal librar has been en- trusted with the cataloguing of the Serbian royal library. He told the As- sociated Press representatives some interesting details about the collec- tion. The oldest book in the library, which is neither of great extent nor great worth, dates from 1580, and is in German. Few old Serbian books were found. The books acquired be- fore the reign of Alexander are chief- ly of the sort found in any middle wclass family’s library They are chiefly in French. The books added during Alexander's reign are mainly fiction. No books of political import- ance were acquired by him. Poetry to Queen Draga An interesting collection from this period comprises v bers of amatory poems written by women and children in praise of Queen Draga, who appears to have been greatly beloved by the common people. In the same department are many musical compositions, chiefly military marches, dedicated to King Alexander. Many of these, according to the librarian, were rather triumphs of musical nemonics than original compositions of worth. A sitor's register kept by the Serbian royal librarian shows that the great majority of visitors consists of British students of the Balkan ques- tion. They appear to have made ex- tended use of the books available. All political books have been sent to Vienna, where they will be studied for any matters of importance to the conquerors, Notice.

Stay off the damp ground, avoid ex- posure, keep feet dry, eat less meat, drink lots of water and above all take a spoonful of salts occasionally to keep down uric acid. Rheumatism is caused by poisonous toxin, called uric acid, which is gen- erated in the bowels and absorbed in- to the blood. It is the function of the kidneys to filter this acid from the blood and cast it out in the urine. The pores of the skin are also a means of freeing the blood of this impur- ity. In damp and chilly, cold weath- er the skin pores are closed, thus forcing the kidneys to do double work, they become weak and sluggish and fail to eliminate this uric ac which keeps accumulating and cir- culating through the system, eventual- ly settling in the joints and muscles causing stiffness, soreness and pain called rheumatism. At the first twinge of rheumatism get from any pharmacy about four ounces of Jad Salts; put a tablespoon- ful in a glass of water and drink be- fore' breakfa each morning for a week. This is said to eliminate uric acid by stimulating the kidneys to normal action, thus ridding the blood of these impurities. Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless and is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined With lithia and is used with excellent re- sults by thousands of folks who are subject to rheumatism. Here you have a pleasant, effervescent lithia- water drink which overcomes uric acid and is beneficial to your kidneys as well. SWEDISH OFFIGIALS AFTER CONTRABAND Germany Alleged to Be Benefit- _ting Via That County (Correspondence of The Associated Press.) Stockholm, Sweden, Dec, 28.—Alle- gations that German agents are try- ing to smuggle copper and other con- traband from the United States into Germany by shipping it first to Swedish port disguised as unprohibit- ed foodstuffs have resulted in the stricter surveillance of all incoming ships by the Swedish government. The Andrew Welch, an American steamer which arrived recently at Halmstad from Philadelphia is still detained at the former port pending detailed examination of an alleged cargo of beans. She was sighted off Halmstad, cruis- ing about for no apparent reason, and when questioned by of a Swedish torpedo boat the captain said he had orders to wait there. Soon aftewards a large German ti came up to the Sound and made for the Andrew Welch., The captain of the tug was equally ignorant of the reason for sending him to a point off Halmstad, but denied that he had a rendezvous with the American ship. The Swedish naval authorities thereupon brought the Andrew Welch into Halmstad and the tug dis- appeared in a southerly direction. A cursory examination of the Andrew Welch showed that she carried beans but members of the crew told the Swedish customs inspectors that the weight of the bags had caused some comment among them, and ‘“they thought there might be other things inside.” Enormous quantities of non-con- traband foodstuffs from America have been going into Germany from Swed- en during the 1 six weeks, includ- ing preserved fruits from the Pacific coast, coffee and tea. Imports of American coal are increasing, owing to the continued ban on British coal by the British government. Germany is sending cargoes of Belgian coal from Luebeck and Stetlin to Malmo but it is of inferior quality and the demand for American coal is growing. Ten thousand tons arrived at Malmo this week. Britons Too Active. The activity of British commer- cial agents, whom the Swedes call “commercial spies” has caused great irritation here. Several have been ex- pelled because of their activity in “shadowing” cargoes unloaded at Gothenburg and other ports. Ameri- can buyers are carefully watched and their negotiations with Swedish busi- ness men followed in detail.
