BOLSHEVIKI GIVE UP Lenlne and Trotzky Make Abject Sur render to Kaiser Germany Get Lithuania, Poland and Riga. The Russian Bolshevik! government hag capitulated and announced Its read iness, although protestingly, to sign a peace compact under the hard terms imposed by Germany. Notwithstanding this fact, Teutonic troops are advancing eastward into Russia over a front of 400 miles, from Riga in the north to Lutsk, a scant 60 miles from the East Galician border, on the south. Apparently, thus far the operation has met with no opposi tion. The northern reaches of the Dvina river have been crossed by the enemy; the important railroad town of Dvinsk, whence roads fun northeastward to Petrograd and eastward to Smolensk, has been captured and LutBk, one of the famous fortresses of the Volhynian traingle and forming the gateway leading eastward to Kiev, has been entered without the Russians attempt ing to stay the force. The only indication that the enemy will meet with hinderance comes in an announcement by Ensign Krylenko, the Bolshevik commander-in-chief. In his order he instructs the Russians when they encounter German troops to en deavor to persuade them to refrain from hostilities. "If the Germans re fuse," he adds, "then you must offer them every possible resistance." As yet there is no indication from German sources concerning the full in tentions of the invaders, but it has been assumed that in the north the capture of the provinces of Livonia and Esthunia is contemplated, and that in the south, in Little Russia, aid is to be sent the Ukrainians in stemming the tide of the Bolshevik government against them. Apparently all is still chaos in Rus sia, with civil war in progress at var ious points, and the food situation daily grows worse. So serious has become the latter factor that Trotzky has been appointed food controller and given unlimited powers. Already he has ordered the arrest of speculators in foodstuffs. Berlin, via London The official communication issued by the German War office Tuesday evening Bays that from Riga to as faT south as Lutsk, German armies are advancing east ward into Russia. London Rumors are current in Stockholm, according to a dispatch from Copenhagen to the Exchange Telegraph company, that the Germans intend to intervene at once in Finland, The belief prevails at the Swedish capital that the German action will be directed against the unoccupied dis tricts of Courland and Esthonia in con junction with a great naval attack in the Finnish gulf. SENATOR GOES UNDER KNIFE Chamberlain Operated on For Append icitisCondition Satisfactory. Washington, D. C Senator George E. Chamberlain, of Oregon, was oper ated on for appendicitis at Providence hospital, this city, at 2 0 clock Tues- day afternoon. The operation was performed by Drs. Thomas J. Kelly and J. A. Gannon, both of Washing ton. The senator is reported to have stood the shock of operation in a favorable manner and his condition is pronounced very favorable by the attending physi cians. They look for his complete re covery. Since Sunday Senator Chamberlain has been suffering more or less from a recurrence of appendicitis, with which he was first afflicted last fall, but until Tuesday evening he refused to place himself under a doctor s care. The senator finally consented to an operation, was taken to Providence hospital and was on the operating table between 2 0 clock and 2:45. The physicians found the appendix greatly inflamed, and had the opera tion been much longer deferred, they believe there would have been fatal re sults. Chinese Take Over Land. Chicago Two big Chinese farming colonies have been established in Wis consin, it became known Thursday, with the announcement of the signing of leases on 1480 acres of land in Ju neau and Rusk counties by Chicago Chinese. One hundred Chinese will be sent to the farms from Chicago early in March. It is planned to have many more follow, some from Chicago, and some from Stockton, Cal. Options on 6400 acres of land have been taken and backers of the plan say 900 Chinese will be ori the farms by next fall. Strike Situation Clears. Washington, D. C With striking carpenters in all affected districts re turning to work Thursday and William L. Hutcheson, president of the Broth erhood of Carpenters and Joiners, due here to take up the situation with gov ernment officials, complete settlement of the recent trouble in eastern ship yards seemed assured. In effect, President Wilson's inter vention has terminated the shipbuild ers' strike. Man-Power Plan Loses. London The Amalgamated Society of Engineers, according to a statement issued Wednesday by the secretary of the society, has rejected the govern ment's man-power proposals by 93,647 votes. The figures were: For the govern ment proposal, 27,470; against, 121,-017. SALTS IS FINE FOR KIDNEYS QUI I MEAT Flush the Kidneys at once when Back hurts or Bladder bothers. No man or woman who eats meat regularly can make a mistake by flushing the kidneys occasionally, says a well-known authority. Meat forms uric acid which clogs the kidney pores so they sluggishly filter or strain only part of the waste and poisons from the blood, then you get sick. Nearly all rheumatism, headaches, liver trou ble, nervousness, constipation, dizzi ness, sleeplessness, bladder disorders come from slugglaih kidneys, The moment you feel a dull ache In the kidneys or your back hurts, or if the urine Is cloudy, offensive, lull of sediment, Irregular of passage or at tended by a sensation of scalding, get about four ounces of Jad Salts from any reliable pharmacy and take a tablespoonful In a glass of water be fore breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon Juice, combined with llthla and has been used for generations to flush clogged kidneys and stimulate them to activity, also to neutralize the acids In urine so it no longer causes irritation, thus end ing bladder disorders. Jad Salts Is Inexpensive and can not injure; makes a delightful effer vescent lithia-water drink which all regular meat eaters should take now and then to keep the kidneys clean and the blood pure, thereby avoiding serious kidney complications.

GIVE THIS MAN THE GOLD MEDAL No humbug! Any corn, whether hard, soft or between the toes, will loosen right up and lift out without a particle of pain or soreness. This drug Is called freezone and is a compound of ether discovered by a Cincinnati man. Ask at any drug store for a small bottle of freezone, which will cost but a trifle, but is sufficient to rid one's feet of every corn or callous. Put a few drops directly upon any tender, aching corn or callous. In stantly the soreness disappears and shortly the corn or callous will loosen and can be lifted off with the fingers. This drug freezone doesn't eat out the corns or callouses but shrivels them without even irritating the sur rounding skin. Just think! No pain at all; no sore ness or smarting when applying it or afterwards. If your druggist don't have freezone have him order it for you. Adv.
