It is first stated, says the news iigene,-- niinonni'cmcm, iniil tne Her man government had received tile re ply of the entente to the note of De- i ccnibcr 12 containing a proposition to enter at once into ncace negotiations. The note continues; "Our adversaries declined this nropositiou, giving ns the reason that it is u proposition without sincerity and without importance. The form in which they close their communica tion excludes an answer to them, hut tho imperial government considers it important lo point out to the govern ments of neutnil powers its opinion regarding the situation. "The central powers have no rea son to Ciller into any discussion re gnrdinir the origin of the war. His tory will juduc iiiioii whom this im mense guilt of the war shall fall; his tory's verdict will as little pass over the encircling policy of England, the revengeful policy of France nnd the endeavor of Kussin to gain Constan tinople as over the instigation of the Serbian .assassination in Snrayevo and the complete mobilization of Kus sin, which meant war nguinst Ger many."

Appeal to Reason 'Ask any of tin' great army of Postum users what influenced, them to try this beverage, and the reply nine times out of ten will be that they were convinced the caffeine and tannin in tea and coffee were harmful to health. Some imagine it is hard to give up coffee and tea. Hut it isn't, with the delightful aroma and flavor of Postum at hand. This flavor somewhat resembles that of a high-grade Java coffee, but there is no coffee in Pos tum only the nourishing goodness of wheat, skilfully processed with a small per cent of wholesome molasses. Postum comes in two forms: Postum Cereal, which has to be boiled; Instant Postum solubh made in the cup, instantly. Some prefer one. some the other. Made right, they are alike delicious, and the cost per cup is about the same. There's better health, comfort and efficiency in POSTUM E PLAN IN EFFECT Since the passage of the Hanson plan the city recorder and treasurer have been kept busy answering in quiries ns to when the plan will go into effect, when the fifteen-day period followed by a penalty for noil-payment, will lie up, and a num ber of other questions. The mayor's proclamation an nouncing the adoption of the plan will bo made some time before Sat urday. The canvass of the vote will also be made some time before Sat urday. Following these preliniinnnes, the council will pass next Tuesday night an ordinance putting the plan into ef fect. However, immediate action ill collection of assessments will not hv possible. The Hanson plan includes the con solidation of the many funds in the city's present system into a few com pact accounts. This consolidation must be mnde, transferred to new books and a number of routine book keeping changes mndo beforo the city offices will be ready to receive pavnient. . Each property owner will receive due notice before any penalty will be put upon bis property. Tho inquiries received indicate a general desire on the part of those ow in assessments to make their pay ments, several offering to pay up their paving debt in full.

A movement was started this mornlug to have the members of the local and state association pass reso lutions endorsing the stamping of cold storage eggs, as such as fresh eggs placed on tho market, are now generally marked fresh.

If you feel that tired, worn-ont feeling, backache, neuralgia, or if your, sleep is disturbed by too frequent' urination, go to your best drug st ore and ask for Dr. Pierce's Anniic Tablets, 'ihey are put up in 50-cent packages. Doctor Pierce's reputation is back of this medicine and you know that his ''Golden Medical Discovery" for the blood and his "Favorite Prescription" for the ills of women have bad a splen did reputation for the past fifty yeanj.
