RIVERSIDE DRIVE.

According to the front-page today, tliere is some prospect of the long cherfshed plan for a riverside driveway along the west line of the city being consummated at an early date. The ceedlng to the city by the Rose Polytechnic of a section pf ground which will form an extended link in y the plan will doubtless be emulated .by.

private citizens along the course, and

pgs-^thus will the plan materialize. It is "•A0".b® commended as,an important step ^1 in beautifying, the city, and for the

I morte important reason, it. will reclaim desirable purpose a section of the K city^ and its environs, the development pfSfeW of: which was halted years ago by the "a''l "growth of the community *hi* otlrer directions. A riverside drive along the i banks, of the Wabash is a natural improvement, its historical -location adds

Interest to the plan, and its completion will stir a civic pride beneficial to the pcity in other like enterprises of wjiich there have been all too few. The drive north will mean an extension of the plan souths and in time the unsightly localities that have marked the river neighborhoods will disappear by reason of the increased valuations .of property which will be thus effected.

A WORD TO THE WISE.

Now that the centennial movement Is In full awing over the state, a word of caution seems in place. Centennial organizations and officials are being approached with all kinds of red fire and tinsel proposals made by amusement promoters. Some of the latter even agree to go into a town and put on its centennial' celebration, relieving its citizens of all thought and responsibility in the matter! Such a proposal Is an Insult to the intelligence of the community and brands- those who make it. The centennial activities over tha state are being urged and entered upon from a high plane of real education and patriotism. They should not be compromised and degraded by commercial amusement companies -po'Sfrigfn centennial clothing. Bfetter no celebration at al than a farce. The people of Indiana will profit by this year's efforts by just as much of thought and intelligent interest and work as they contribute. It is a safe proposition for communities to beware of the people who are anxious to give them Something. Do your own celebrating. And remember—"the centennial celebration Is no carnival."

HANDLING HUSBANDS.

One of the speakers at the State Federation of Clubs said that a great void in the work of the clubs was the failure of the women to impress their husbands with the sincerity of the women's efforts in the movements in which they are concerned

Miss Marlott, professor of home economics of Wisconsin university, says that plans to train good husbands are lacking that -the present crop is poor picking. They lack interest in home and shirk their share of responsibilities. That is a pretty just indictment.- The growing- influence of the lobby, the club, of sport, is diminishing a mate's devotion to his home. Thfere Are jnany men who have fine ijbme'8, Intelligent wives arid interesting children who give ten times the attention to the crowd downtown than they do to these. It is- me- oi me perils of the times, one of the triumphs of. materialism. Surely there should be some way to train husbands but doesn't the admission imply that something is the matter at the Heme, and that the wife may be a little at fault?

There are many fine husbands in this city, but they owe that fact principally to their having fine, thoughtful wives. But better husbands are really in great demand, as the professor suggests.

COUNTRY AND TOWN.

than children living in the country. Thise. facts have just been revealed by investigations conducted by Dr. Thomas D. Wood, professor of physical education at Columbia university.

We still burst into rhapsodies about fresh country eggs, milk and butter. Dr. .Wood knocks this into a cocked hat by declaring that more than.twice as many country children suffer from malnutrition as city children and that

Sarsaparilla is one of the best blood purifiers ever known. But the readymade sarsaparilla costs $1.00 a halfpint bottle, for many persons too heavy &n expense to add to the already high cost of living

If everybody knew that with two ounces of trib sarsaparilla powder vou can make at home a full pint of excellent, full strength sarsaparilla, less of the ready-made would be sold, but more people would take sarsaparilla every Spring.

Trib sarsaparilla powder is a highly concentrated eixtract sarsaparilla, containing burdock, red clover, dandelion and other alteratives that our grandmothers knew and depended upon to keep the family well and free from disease. If you dissolve a cupful of sugar in a cupful of cold water and add a 50 cent package of trib sarsaparilla powder, you will have as much as you could buy ready made for $2 00, and it will be better than ordinary sarsaparilla.

"Peter Delivered From Priaon." Lesson text—Acts 12:1-19. Golden text—"The angel of the Lord encam-peth round about them that fear Him, and delivereth them." Psalm 34:7.

The absolutism of ancient tyranny finds typical expression, in Herod, the king. Persecution wages against the early christians. James, the brother of John, is slain with the sword, and the Apostle Feter is booked for a like fate.

Pending his execution, which is delayed on account of certain Jewish holidays, he is thrown Into prison and guarded by four quaternions of soldiers.

Man's extremity, however, is God's opportunity, and the church, believing in the power of divine intervention, gives itself to unceasing prayer. The innocent prisoner, bo'ind between two Roman soldiers, in the confidence of sublime trust, on the night set for the execution, gives himself to sleep. An angel appears on the scene and a supernatural light shines in the prison. Peter awakes and the cfcains fall from his hands. At the angel's word he girds himself and puts on his sandals. Following the angel, he goes out as If in a dream, scarcely knowing, at tha time, the meaning of his strange experience. As Peter and his heavenly guide reach the outer wall of the enclosure, the gate opens of its own accord, the angel departs from him and he rejoins his fellow disciples.

Such supernatural Intervention was a part of the '.program of launching the christian religion. Now no gates open of their own accord to release victims Of oppression and neglect. This has become the task of the church. Tyranny and oppression must now fall by human agency. The martyr's sacrifice is the price of freedom. ..But there is still a divine panoply enveloping the worker for God. Until his work is done he is immortal. And there is no weapon formed against him that shall prosper."""*--Behind the dim, unknown God still .Stands within the shadow, keeping watch above his own,

There is still the availability of prayer. Man's, extremity is still God's opportunity, 'aiid.-the saints "in. prayer are in league Vith omnipotence,although the means used for deliverance today are those of social and political forces, set in operation for human welfare ends. The wisdom to get control of these for humane and holy purposes is no less than that which in ancient times sought ends through socalied supernatural agencies, .Today the call is for christians ~to play the angel's part in-opening gates

He finds that 15 per cent more country children than city children have defective sight and hearing that 10 per cent more have infected tonsils that nearly twice as many country children as city children suffer from adenoids.

Monday, May 1, 1916.

This is not a favorable day, although early in the morning the sun i3 in benefit' aspect. Saturn, Neptune and Mars are all strongly adverse.

The morning is a particularly unlucky time Lor any project that appeals to iho finer side «f humanity. The i rule arouses suspicion and critism.

Treachery is held to be more com-

fects, breathing defects, spinal curva- {rnon while this sway prevails than dur-tu-re, anemia, lung defects and heart I ing other configurations. disease.

These conditions must be remedied without delay, for the raw material to supply the needs of civilization, including the best human supply, must continue to come from the soil. The country is the nursery of human life for the nation, and it must be made a healthful nursery.

The planetary government is threatening for anything- that concerns com-n-erce or travel on the water, whether on small streams or the sea..

Again warning is given against the influence of false prophets and teachers of new cults. One who will establish. a Mecca near New York City will bring trouble to many women.

This is not a good sway for domestic happiness. Quarrels and misunderstandings are easily brought about while the rule continues.

Mars indicates continued agitation in connection with all military matters. The vast expenditures,, so long predicted for the United States, will cause surprises in the political world, owtyig to necessary taxation, which will be exceedingly burdensome in certain quarters.

Increase of influence on the part of socialists a&ain is foretold. A woman of radical views will be hailed as a martyr, owing to imprisonment or some other penalty.

A great na\'al 'battle or a disaster at sea is indicated for this month or some timp within the next six weeks.

Mexico continues unedr a rule of the planets, which is believed to phesags profit for the United States and fame for a "gringo." The prophecy that a hero from this country would rise in Mexico has been made repatedly in the last two years.

Persons whose birthdate it is may have many business anxieties. -Neither men nor women should run any financial risks.

Children born on this day may be exceedingly lucky. Boys are likely to rise to high positions.

WASHINGTON, D. C., April 29.— And England continues to lightly brush aside American protests against her persistent, systematic violations of international law and the law of humanity with that impunity, insolence and arrogance which has characterized her attitude toward the United States during the last "hundred years of peace."

Since my last letter there: have been rapid developments in our relations with England.

The most provocative and insolent of these has been the note from Grey to the effect that'England has the right to maintain a complete and undispotable' mastery of the seas—the right to interfere with our legitimate commerce with neutral nations in violation of the laws" of nations—the right to go out upon the seas, to capture American cargoes, to take them at the point of the gun into English ports. In short Englknd has again told the American people to be damned—and perhaps we shall.

But there have been other developments. England has responded to our protest against the crime of forcibly taking people, civilians, from ships flying the American flag as was done in far eastern waters on the ground that these people might plan to do harm to England- from some neutral soil. This contention is the quintessence of English insolence. It is an open secret in Washington that Secretary Lansing completely lost patience when he read that note. It. was a flagrant violation of international law and a direct insult to the United States.

Who's Barbaric Now?

And there has been a/nother development of interest to the English today. England has had the temerity to notify the United States, made at the instance of the Red Cross, to the brutal, Inhuman, barbarous policy adopted by England of preventing the sending of Red Cross supplies to Germany for the use of Red Cross nurses and surgeons in the hospitals. This is probably the most barbarous action of this, barbarous war. The nation that would be capable of such infamy would fire upon a Red Cross ambulance. There has never been in the history of civilized warfare anything to compare with this amazing determination of England to trample upon the dictates of common humanity and .war upon the wounded in the hospitals of an enemy country.

Of course these replies of England will not end ^the controversy. It is more than proable that the real controversy will just begin. The admission by the United States of the principles contended for in the first note would be the abject and cowardly surrender of American rights.

The concession of the principles incorporated in the second note would be a supine surrender of American sovereignty. The acquiesence in the monstrous principles of the third note would be a surrender to bai'bjarism. National dignity, national self-respect, national existence dependis upon a vigorous protest being made and it will be made.

An interesting feature of the barbarous English action relative to Red Cross supplis is that the most indignant person perhaps on American soil is Miss Mabel Boarman, the head of the American Red Cross, who is generally understood to be decidedly proally. No one who knows anything of Miss Boarman, however, assumes for a second that she would be capable of permitting any views she may entertain regarding the war to deter her from her duty as the head of the Red Cross. The original protest to England was made by the United States on the representations of Miss Boarman that the Red Cross was finding it impossible to get necessary Red Cross articles into the hospitals of the central powers. The thought naturally was that some semi.barbarian with brass buttons, Some military heathen was wholly respon

sible, and that' the moment the responsible head of 'the English government should be called to the outrage the order would be Issued to permit the transmission of Red Cross supplies. That theory is exploded. The nation that is "fighting the battle of civilization," the nation that "is battling for humanity," the nation that is "waging war on th^ Prussian barbarians," has now taken the position that Red Cross supplies shall.not go to the Red Cros» hospitals of Qermany and Austria. It is the' understanding here that the strongest kind 6f protest will now be sent to England, and It is hoped that England will gracefully retreat from her barbarous position. If she does not there is a feeling prevalent in many quarters here that nothing will be left for us to do other than to break off diplomatic relations as a protest in the name of common humanity.

The German Crisis.

The feeling against England has been intensified by the thought that the serious situation that now confronts us is all directly traceable to English violations of international law. There would be no U boat crisis had there been no illegal determination on the part of England to starve the civilian population of Germany by methods

Strength that Endures

Want Plenty of. "Stay There" Strength Like an Athlete

Ordinary Nuxnted Iron Will Make Delicate, Nervous, Rundown People 200 Per cent Stronger In Two Weeks'

Time, -in Many Cages.

NEW YORK, N. 5T.—Most people foolishly seem to think they are going to get renewed health and strength from some stimulating medicine, secret nostrum or narcotic drug, said Dr. Sauer, a well-known specialist who has studied widely bo.th in this country and Europe, when, as a matter of fact, real and true strength can only come from, the food you eat. But people often fail to get the strength out of their food because they haven't enough iron in their blood to enable it to change food into living matter. From their weakened, nervous condition they know something Is wrong, but they can't tell what, so they generally commence doctoring for stomach, liver or kidney trouble or symptoms of some other aliment caused by the lack of iron in the blood. This thing may

on for years, while the patient sufers untold agony. If you are not strong or well, you owe It to yourself to make the following test. See how long you can work or how far you can walk without becoming tired. Next take two five-grain tablets of ordinary nuxated iron three times per day after meals for two weeks. Then test your strength again and see for yourself how much you have gained. I have seen dozens o-f nervous, rundown people who were ailing all thef-BMle. double and even triple their jrth and endurance and entirely all symptoms of dyspepsia', m. 's ^Spther troucles in from ,ten tg -tays'

time simply by taking iron in the proper form, and this after they had in some cases been doctoring for months without obtaining any benefit. But don't take the old forms of reduced iron, iron acetate or tincture of iron simply to save a few cents. You must take iron in a form that can be easily absorbed and assimilated like nuxated iron if you want it to do you any good, otherwise it may prove worse than useless. Many an athlete or prize fighter has won the day simply because he knew the secret, of great strength and endurance and filled his blood with iron before he went into an affrav, while many another has gone down to inglorious defeat simply for -the lack or iron

NOTE—Nuxated Iron recommended above by Dr. Sauer, is one of the newer organic iron compounds. Unlike the older inorganic iron products, it Is easily assimilated, does not injure the teeth, make them black, nor upset the stomach on the contrary, it is a most potent remedy, In nearly all forms of indigestion, as well as for nervous, rundown condltloni" "The manufacturers have such great confidence in Nuxated Iron that they offer to forfeit $100.00 to any charltarle institution if they cannpt take any man or woman under 60 who lacks iron and increase their strength 200 per cent or over in four weeks' time, provide.d they have no serious organic trouble. They also offer to refund your money if It not at least double your strength endurance In ten days' time. It is pensed in this city by New Cej pharmacy and' pli otherr druggists.
