We must have no more of sovereignty of the seas, nor control of the seas, but liberty for all. Or. if jne must have control let it be a control by an international force." o Peasant Dies While Witch And Wizard Hold Contest Over His Malady Moscow. — (United Press.)—Witchcraft and sorcery still flourish in the remote Russian villages and the word of the local wizard or witch is likely to count for more with the superstitious peasants than the influence of the priest or the doctor. A cont net between a witch and a wizard over the body of a dying peasant was recently reported from a village inhabited by Chuvashes, a Volga tribe which has only been recently and uncertainly reclaimed from paganism. An old peasant, feeling very sick, sent for a doctor: but was immediately frightened by the threats of the local “shaman,” or medicineman, who threatened to bring immediate death on his head if he had anything to do with doctors. The peasant through his wife sent presents to the wizard, whom he implored for aid in his sick m ss. The wizard, following a common practise in such cases, ascribed the disease to the evil influence of the peasant's neighbors and promised to cure the patient and punish the neighbors. The neighbors fell into a panic and called in a rival power in the shape of a witch from a neighboring village. The witch arrived and a furious competition in ‘sorcery set in. The wizard jumped wildly about in the peasant's room, professed to talk with the wind through the chimney and ran around the yard on all fours, mumbling mysterious words which were supposed to destroy his competitor. But the witch was fully a match for him in black arts. She relied on frog and cat bones, muttering incan tations over them and varying this process by howling in an unearthly voice. Beseiged by jumping wizard and howling switch the poor peasant gave up the struggle for existence and died. The villagers, however, regarded this as a great triumph for the witch, who was showered with gifts, while the discredited wizard was compelled to quit the village in disgrace. Another village was haunted by a warewolf, which, it seems, was running about after dark in the shape of a pig, killing everyone it met Finally the young peasants sallied forth in the evening armed with clubs- and pitchforks and beat to death the first pig they encountered. They were greatly disappointed, however. to find that the body of the local wizard, whom they visited the next morning,’bore no marks of the beating, as the superstition is th.it warewolves and wizards have some mysterious connection, which causes the latter to suffer any pains inflicted upon the former. —o Zion Reformed Church Members are reminded of the mid--week Lenten service tonight at 7:30 'lo'clock.

The bulletin says: . | “Figuring the high cost of colds i has been one of the favorite indoor ’I pastimes of medical statisticians for I many years and in the United States it is said that 100.000.000 pronounc- ■ | cd cases of cold exist each year with > a loss resulting through absence | from work alone that may be estii, mated at a billion These ( figures being estimated, may or may i 1 not be accurate but the fact remains i'that one of the most expensive luxjuries that ‘we moderns’ enjoy in ouri II up-to-date, super-lteated, shnt-inijhe-' j house, twentieth century lives is the . | common cold. 1 According to the bulletin the common cold flourishes in March ami i (lie March lion should not be represented as a powerful majestic creature but as a whizzy, sneezing, sickly sort of animal while his companion, the March lamb usually turns out to be a black sheep from a health standpoint. “Because of the changeableness of the typical Hoosier March weather, common colds probably are more frequent in this month than any other similar period of the year.'

continues the Bulletin. “As disagreeable and annoying as is the ordinary common cold, in itself it is nothing to worry about. But no matter how slight a cold may be, it is always’ a threat and unless it receives proper and immediate attention it may develop into something genuinely ser- . ions. Hence if a cold fails o clear up quickly it is best to seek expert medical advice. “Pneumonia which is fatal to one out of every four or five people who get it. could be prevented in a large number of cases if the severe cold, which usually is one of the first ] symptoms, receives proper medical attention. “A number of cases of earache resulting from common colds, ofte'n may extend to the middle ear and
