HARRESBURG iWHg TELEGRAPH
Kaiser's Allies to Issue
Manifesto on His Birthday
London, Jan. 15. lt is reported by
the Amsterdam correspondent of the
Exchange Telegraph Company that
on the occasion of Emperor William's
; forthcoming birthday (he will be 58
j years old on January 27), Emperor
Charles of Austria-Hungary, King Fer
| dinand of Bulgaria, and the Turkish
I heir apparent, will go to Berlin to at
: tend the birthday celebration.
| While there the three rulers and the
i Turkish representative will issue a
manifesto to the world, placing re
sponsibility on the entente for continu

I)R. M'XALLY OX THE WAR
j The Rev. William McNally, former
i pastor of the Westminster Presby
terian Church, writes a Philadelphia
newspaper expressing his cordial
i sympathy with the peace protest sign
ed by sixty clergymen and laymen
and drawn up by G. W. Pepper.
When the peace-at-any-price folks
appeal to the Bible for their author-
I ity against all war, they appeal to
the wrong book. Better get some
other textbook. The Rev. Mr. Ely
[ opposes the Pepper protest because
God says "Thou shalt not kill," but
why read the Bible with only one eye
open? After reading It sixty-four
times in the last sixteen years I dare
to assert that It counsels war, even
to extermination, and that by the ex
press command of God Himself.
Nations, like individuals, reap what
they sow. I pray that this war go on
until the purpose of God in It Is ful
filled, whatever that may be, and
surely, the overthrow of Prussian
militarism and despotism and the ob
literation of the fiendish Turk! Find
some other book for your peace talk,
brethren; the Bible points the other
way, and God is marching on until
Belgium is avenged!"
LABOR UNION TO MEETT

Admiral Dewey Very
Weak; His Vitality May
Fail at Any Time
Washington, Jan. 15. Admiral
! Dewey's condition was such this morn-
I ing that his doctors said he was very
J weak and it was feared his once great
vitality might fail at any time.

I Dr. A. M. Fauntleroy, U. S. N., the
senior surgeon in charge of the ad
miral's case and Dr. Luther Sheldon,
Jr., U. S. N., who is associated with
him, the admiral's condition was
stated as follows:
"Admiral Dewey has been suffering
for the past five days from a general
| breakdown consequent upon his eighty
years of age. For several days there
was some improvement and at times
it appeared as if he might rally and
succeed in overcoming the depression
of certain organs.
"L.ast night the admiral slept fairly
well, at times he was irrational and
showed evidences of a gradual de
cline.
"This morning he is very weak and
his general condition is such as to
fear that his once great vitality may
fail at any time."
The admiral is being treated at his
home.

500,000 BATHE
INTERNALLY
The marvelous growth of Internal
bathing since t'le advent of "J. B. L Cas
cade is accounted for not only by the
enthusiastic praise of its users to
others, but ulso by the physicians In
sisting more and more that the lower
intestine must be kept free from waste
to Insure perfect health and efficiency.
Mary L. J. Walker, M. L. D., Glean,
N. Y„ writes:
"I must tell you of a case of constipa
tion lasting for twenty years that was
c ured by your cascade treatment.
'The physician in charge said the
patient had a tumor between the stom
ach and intestines. The patient, being
sixty-two years old, he claimed no help
could be given except the knife; but
finding the Intestines in a very bad
state I advised the 'J. U. L, Cascade.'
which resulted in a complete recovery.
When 1 took the case she was taking a.
laxative three times a day and had been
for three weeks: couldn't get along
without it. Now she never takes any
laxative."
Call at Croll Keller, 405 Market street
and George C. Poot's Drug Store in
Harrisburg. and ask for a free booklet
on the subject, called "Why Man of To
