TROUBLES OF EARLY POET
His Brainwork Lost, What Was There
to Do But Proceed to Inven¬
tion of Paper?
"My dear," said the Cave Man Poet,
appearing in the doorway of their
dwelling, chisel and maillet in band,
"Did you see that page of my
poem on 'Spring' I was cutting for
the Yearly Neolith yesterday? I cant’
lind it anywhere in the quarry,”
. His wife nodded.
"Yeh,” she replied querulously, "and
■ don't care—you ought to be out hunt¬
ing grub with the rest of the men. I
bounced it off that old pterodactyl’s
bean yesterday, when he was snoop¬
ing around here trying to get a couple
ol' the children."
“And did it—”
“Yes, it tore in two and plopped into
the lake.”
Whereupon the Cave Man threw np
both hands in despair, and proceeded
to invent paper.
The Kind.
“So they have cleared the water
of mines 12 miles for the warships'
> t advtufze lit TurWish watfersT" " '
“Yes, so 1 hear.” |
“Could that be called a sweeping
victory?”
Preposterous.
"The poor fellow was simply driven
to his grave.”
“Well, why not? You wouldn't com¬
pel a dead man to walk there, would
you?”
Not So Green.
Grass is naturally green, but after a
man has bumped up against a grass
widow he is apt to imagine he is
color blind.
As Played by Ear.
“Why are you prejudiced against
golf? You never saw a game?"
“No; but once I heard part of one.”
Natural Reason.
“Indians face death more bravely
than white men.”
“Naturally. Indians like to dye."
Nothing is more disgusting than a
young raan trying to act old or an old
man trying to act young.
SOME HARD KNOCKS
Woman Gets Rid of “Coffee Habit."
The injurious action of coffee on the
hearts of many persons is well known
by physicians to be caused by caffeine.
This is the drug found by chemists in
coffee and tea.
A woman suffered a long time with
severe heart trouble and finally her
doctor told her she, must give up cof¬
fee, as that was the principal cause of
the trouble. She writes;
“My heart was so weak it could not
do its work properly. My husband
would sometimes have to carry me
from the table, and it would seem that
I would never breathe again.
“The doctor told me that coffee was
causing the weakness of my heart. He
said I must stop It, but it seemed 1
could not give it up until X was down
in b?d with nervous prostration.
"For eleven weeks I lay there and
suffered. Finally husband brought
Stome some Postum and I quit coffee
and started new and right. Slowly I
got well. Now 1 do not have any head¬
aches, nor those spells with weak
heart. We know it Is Postum that
helped me. The Dr. said the other
day: ‘1 never thought you would be
what you are.’ I used to weigh 92
pounds and now I weigh 158.
“Postum has done much for me and
1 would not go back to coffee again,
for I believe it would kill me If I kept
at it. Postum must be prepared ac¬
cording to directions on pkg., then It
has a rich flavor and with cream Is
fine.”
Name given by Postum Co., Battle
■ Creek, Mich. Read “The Road to Well
ville,” in pkgs.
Postum comes In two forms:
Regular Postum — must be well
boiled. 15c and 25c packages.
Instant Postum —Is a soluble pow¬
der. A teaspoonful dissolves quickly
in a cup of hot water and, with cream
and sugar, makes a delicious beverage
Instantly. 30c and 50c tins.
Both kinds are equally delicious and
eoBt per cup about the same.

CARRANZA TOWN
General Funston Ordered By Secreta
ry Bryan To Protect The Texas
Border Along Rio Grande
Washington.—While Villa forces are
delaying their attack on Matamoroa
pending the arrival of artillery, the
stage is being set for another battie
at Lampazos, about seventy miles
southwest of Neuvo Laredo.
Border advices to the state and war
departments said the Villa forces
bound to attack the Carranza garrison
at Nuevo Laredo were expected to
reach Lampazos, “where a battle prob- ;
ably will be fought.” Earlier messages ]
said Carranza troops were being as¬
sembled at Nuevo Laredo.
Should mqre troops be necessary
on the American side at Laredo, Tex¬
as, in the event of an attack on Nue¬
vo Laredo, a regiment of infantry is
in readiness at Texas City.
The situation at Matamoros and at
Brownsville, across the border, was
unchanged. The Villa troops, repulsed
in their first attack, were encamped
five miles from the city, the state de¬
partment was advised, expecting to re¬
new the assault on arrival of their ar¬
tillery.
Latest estimates of the losses said
300 Villa troops were killed and an
equal number wounded, while the Car¬
ranza garrison had ten^killert an<J thir¬
ty-eight wounded.
REPLY TO BRITAIN
American Response Sent England
About Blockade—United States
Stands For Rights
Washington.—The reply of the Unit¬
ed States government to the British
order-in-council decreeing a virtual
blockade against commerce to and
from Germany was cabled to Ambas¬
sador Page at London for presenta¬
tion to the British foreign office. A*
soon as the communication has been
delivered, it will he made public here
and and in London. Meanwhile offi¬
cials decline, to intimate what its con¬
tents arc. Beyond the fact that the
United States stands firmly for its
rights to carry on legitimate trade
with neutral countries, even though
they be contigumis to belligerents, lit¬
tle is known of the administration’s
position in view of developments since
the last note was dispatched inquiring
how Great Britain and her allies in¬
tend to enforce their prohibition
against trade of “enemy origin, own¬
ership or destination.”
Officials have pointed out. however,
that the American government wanted
more definite information as to the
radius of action of the allies’ block¬
ading fleets, and that the question of
whether the order-in-council was to be
enforced under international law gov¬
erning blockades or under the rules
of contraband, had not been answered.
Garrison Remains In Cabinet
Washington.—The White House for
the first time took notice of persistent
rumors that Secretary of War Garri¬
son is contemplating resigning from
the cabinet to become chief justice of
the New Jersey supreme court, when
Secretary Tumulty made the following
statement: “i presume that if Gover¬
nor Fielder intended offering this post
to the secretary of war he would, as a
matter of courtesy, consult the presi¬
dent before doing so. He has not yet
done so. As for the president, he
has no desire to lose Mr. Garrison.”
French Bonds Are Offered
New York.—J. P. Morgan & Co.,
with the National City bank and the
First National bank, have concluded
arrangements with France under
which they will soon make an offering
to American inventors of one-year 5
per cent French treasury bonds, ac¬
cording to announcement made here.
The bonds will bear date of April 1,
to mature April 1, 1916. Interest will
be payable semi-annually. The bonds
will be offered to investors at 99 1-2

will be used to pay for purchases.

SAV THE GERMANS
Kaiser’s Policy Will Be Harsh With The
v English Prisoners In His
Power
TALliiTE FOR STARVATION
Says All Prisoners Are Now Getting
Good Care, But They Will Pay
If England Isn’t Careful
London.—A German protest and
threat of reprisals on account of the
treatment Great Britain of the pris¬
oners taken on board German subma¬
rines was made public here. This pro,
test was transmitted by Germany to
Great Britain through the United
States.
The reply of Great Britain also was
made public.
The German government, in its pro¬
test, asked whether Great Britain in¬
tended to accord less favorable treat¬
ment—' 0 Raptured German submarine
crews l to other war prisoners, and
if so, uVB form this discrimination
would til. Germany stated that if
Great Brirain adopted such a course, a
British army officer held prisoner in
Germany would receive corresponding¬
ly harsher treatment for each member
of a captured German submarine crew.
Foreign Secretary Grey, in his reply,
said that the prisoners front German
submarines had been placed in naval
detention barracks and segregated
from other war prisoners, but were be¬
ing treated humanely and permitted to
take exercise. Furthermore, the for¬
eign secretary said, German prisoners
in England are better fed and clothed
than are British prisoners of equal
rank in Germany, and the Germans
are not subjected to forced labor.
PRINZ EITEL READY
German Auxiliary Cruiser Is Now
Ready To Dash For Home
Waters
Newport News, Va.—The German
merchant raider, Prinz Eitel Friedrich,
is ready to go back to sea and to
brave the danger of attack from a
fleet of warships of the allies off the
Virginia capes. Whether she will be
sent into the fateful breach or her
government submit to internment by
the United States remained a myste¬
ry, however, as the last load of sup¬
plies sufficient for a voyage to Bre¬
men was stowed away in her hold un¬
der supervision of the American navy.
But if her orders are to break for
the open sea the Eitel Friedrich is
well prepared. Her bunkers are filled

PLAYFUL DOG CHOKES BOY
Tragic End for New York Youngster
That Came With Tug-of-War
Game With Puppy.
Thomas Santerano, five years of
age, and his cousin, Angelina, aged
seven, were playing in the yard-of
their home with a cloth dog, sliding
him down a cellar door and now and
then tying him to clotheslines that
dangled from a fire escape.
A real dog, unkempt, lean, and no
lineage whatever, entered the yard
and the children forgot the cloth dog
to play with the stranger.
Thomas, standing on the cellar door,
flipped the clothesline, and the dog
seized it. He tugged one way and
Thomas the other the boy slipping
around on the cellar door and laugh¬
ing. Ii. some way the rope got about
his neck. He tugged to free himself
and the dog resisted.
The little girl didn’t understand
why her cousin didn’t shout and laugh
any more. She ran screaming into
the tenement. When the neighbors
came they found the boy dead. They
drove the dog away and carried the
boy to bis mother.—New York Sun.

.“DELICACIES" AT THE FRONT
Hindu Troops Have Partiality for
Dainties That Seem Peculiar
to Western Senses.
A native Indian writer, a Mr. Mitra.
in a letter to an English newspaper,
tells of the kind of delicacies that the
British Indian troops at the front par¬
ticularly enjoy. The principal things
are ghee, areca nut, betel and Indian
tobacco.
The English readers, says the Man¬
chester Guardian, ghee will be the
most mysterious of these commodi¬
ties. It is a kind of clarified butter,
made from curdled milk—in India,
usually from buffalo milk. The
curdled milk is churned into butter:
then the butter stands for a few days
until it begins to turn rancid. Then
it is boiled, and seasoned with dhye—
whatever that is—salt or the leaf of
the betel, which is a kind of pepper
plant. Indians like it. but Europeans
seldom do. because it is so “ripe'' that
it is virtually rancid.
As most people know, the Hindus
use the areca nut as a kind of chew¬
ing gum. They chew it with betel
leaf and a little shell lime. The nut
is astringent and bitter, but it does
not seem to have any particular effect
on the user. The betel leaf adds a
peppery fiuvor to the combination.
Adam was the only man in (he his¬
tory of the world who never tried to
blame bis downfall heredity.
Some people are so careless they
don't care what happens, so long as
it. doesn't happen to them.
Why pray to be delivered from
temptation and then go around look¬
ing for it?
Three Devonshire (England) broth¬
ers who went to the front have re¬
turned (wounded) by the same train.
A broken promise can be repaired,
but it can never lie made as good as
new.
