WAS NERVOUS
AND RUN DOWN
RESTORED TO NORMAL
HEALTH BY 810-FEREN
"I feel I owe you people a world
j of gratitude for the benefit I have
1 received in using your wonderful
• Temedy—Bio-fcren Tablets, which
have completely restored me to
i *L oriTl al conditions," says Joseph
E. Webb of Muncie, Indiana.
Bio-feren is without doubt the
grandest and quickest remedy for
nervous, run down, weak, aenemic
men and women ever offered di
rect through the druggists and is
liot at all expensive.
Take two after each meal and
one at bed time, and after seven
days take one after each meal and
one at bed time until the supply
"s exhausted.
Then if you feel that anv claim
made in thic special notice is un
true—if you are not in better
nealth—if you do not feel ambi
tious, more vigorous and keen
minded, yes, twice as much as you
did before, the druggist who sold
you the tablets will gladly hand
you back just what you paid for
them.
All druggists in this city and
vicinity have a supply on hand, or
can easily get it for you.
Seven a day for seven days—
Wonderful results.

MONDAY EVENING.
Referring to the proposal of a
mandate, the memorandum says:
"We do not believe the American
people can be fairly asked to as
sume so hazardous a responsibility,
or that they should assume an obli
gation under which the Turks will
become the principal benellciaries,
with the unavoidable result that
they will gain in strength and. at
tho termination of the term of our
mandate, resume their national
pastime of murder and rapine. We
are confident that you cannot pos
sibly sympathize with an arrange
ment that is advocated by the Turks
themselves.
"We believe the American people
will gladly sanction America's ex
tending necessary aid to Armenia
during her formative period. We,
therefore, respectfully ask that the
administration declare Itself in fa
vor of America's extending direct
aid to Armenia; and, as a prelimi
nary step in that direction, recog
nize at once the Armenian repub
lic."
Famous Child Pianist
Carried Off Highest
Prizes in Paris
Much interest is oroused in the.
coming recital of Magdelelne Brard,
the famous little French pianiste,
who will give a recital in the audi
torium of Technical High school on
the evening of December 16. No
young artist has attracted such at
tention in receat years as has this
youthful daughter of France.
The New York "Tribune" says of
Mle. Brard that she is the "great
est child pianist since, the youthful
days of Iloffrfian, having won most
serious recognition by the New York
musical public." ' The New York
Herald writes: "Miss Brard plays
j with mature art, despite her youth."
| The New Y'ork Times writes: "Her
performance is Indeed astonishing,"
| and so one could continue quoting,
for in every city in which Mile.
Brard has appeared one reads noth
ing but enthusiastic praise of this
"wonder" child, as she has been
called.
The little girl was admitted to the
Paris Conservatoire, where each year
she carried off a prize, and finally at
14 years of age the Prix d'honneur.
the highest prize obtainable up to
the Prix de Rome, for which she is
still too young to compete. Her
technical agility is extraordinary, and
her playing cannot help but be of the
greatest inspiration to every stu
dent, as well as mature musician.

DANIELS URGES
PAY INCREASES
IN U. S. NAVY
Unable to Operate Necessary
Number of Ships Because
of Loss of Men
By Associated Press
Washington, Dec. 22. Passage
by Congress of a joint resolution
providing for pay increases to the
navy personnel, as recommended by
him in November, is urged by Sec
retary Daniels in a letter to Speaker
Gillette, of the Mouse, in which the
secretary declares that due. to the
loss of its skilled men the Navy now
is unable to operate the number of
ships that "should bts kept in com
mission.'"
Kmphasizing the necessity of im
mediate action by Congress, Secre
tary Daniels asserted that while
total enlistments now were about
102.000, the great majority of these
were boys under nineteen years of
age, entering as apprentice seamen.
He udded that, based on the dimin
ishing number of warrant and petty
officers in the service, the Navy has
in fact an effective enlisted person
nel of only 45,000.
Due. to the rapid loss of men in
the skilled grades, because of the
higher wages obtainable in civil
life, Mr. Daniels said, it will be nec
essary, unless Congress takes prompt
action to enable the Navy to secure
an adequate number of these men,
to send the eight dreadnoughts of
the Atlantic fleet to Guantanamo,
Cuba, for winter maneuvers with
reduced crews, and also to reduce
the number of destroyers and aux
iliary craft which it was planned to
send with the battleships.

Democrats Are Split
by Knox Resolution
Washington, Dee. 22.—One. of the
immediate effects of the Knox reso
lution which was reported out Sat
urday by the Senate- Foreign Rela
tions Committee, will be to widen the
split of the Democratic members of
the Senate, .a part of whom now be
lieve President Wilson has set out
to do the impossible, according to
talk in official circles.
With the President averse to any
form of a compromise and many
Democratic Senators openly oppos
ed to his stand, the belief grew that
the revolting Democrats would come
forward With a compromise on their
own account. Much missionary
work* both by letter and personal
visits, will be done during the holi
day recess.

passed the Senate late Saturday by
a vote of 4G to 30, ending a prolong

Barnes Approves Plan
Urged by Hoover to
Give Europe Food
By Associated Press
New Vurk, Dec. 22.—Approval of the
plan urged by .Herbert Hoover, to
supply food to Central Kurope on
credit by using the capital of the
United States Grain Corporation was
announced by Julius H. Barnes, presi
dent of Hie corporation and United
States wheat director. The profits of
the corporation are quite material.
Mr. Barnes explained, and might "well
he invested in such humanitarian re
lief."
The wheat director added that in
stead of losing $1,000,000,000 in dis
charging the pledge of a guaranteed
price to the wheat producer, as had
been expected, "it is very improbable
that the national treasury will have
any loss whatever from that source."
He suggested that Congress author
ize the loan of $100,000,000 or $200,-
000,000 of this amount in support of
the Hoover plgn.

! WILLIAM DUNCAN NOW
WITH VITAGRAPII
j Vitagraph has signed up William
! Duncan, the serial star, to a contract
j which makes Duncan the highest
j paid artist in this particular Held,
j Under the new arrangement Duncan,
already known as America's serial
king, will immediately start a super
serial on which it is announced that
$1,000,000 will be expended. His next
chaptered subject, therefore, it is
isaid, will reach an unparalleled climax
of magnitude, it is announced.
The Duncan deal was consummated
by Albert E. Smith, president of Vita
graph, who in a telegram sent from
Los Angeles to John M. Qulnn, gen
eral manager, stated that the Duncan
productions now on the way will
usher in a new era in motion pic
tures.
Immediately after signing his con
tract Mr. Duncan said. "I am con
vinced that the day of big serials is
here at last, and that from now on
every first class theater will run
these continued subjects in the same
fashion,as every first class magazine
runs serial stories.
It is my ambition to make this
coming serial the climax of all my
efforts in this line, dramatically,
scenically and sensationally."
Part of William Duncan's success
in serials may be traced to his early
days when he appeared on the stage
as a partner to the famous Sandow,
the professional "strong man." In
addition to his serial work he lias ap
peared in stage productions and in
motion picture features. He always
insists on being his own director.

ITEMS O.N "THE GIRL FROM OUT
SIDE" AT COLONIAL ALL WEEK
A forger, a burglar, a cheat and
deaf confidence man, a pickpocket
and n stick-up mail—these are the
five "wags" (scalaways) who "The
Girl from Outside" is first introduced
to when in the Goldwyn picture of
that name she lands in the town of
Nome in 1900. How she sets them on
a different path makes an interesting
picture.
In the old days in Nome, which are
strikingly illustrated in the Goldwyn
Rex Beach picture. "The Girl from
Outside." the unloading of a steam
ship was an event to be seen, dis
cussed and recalled. June, the girl
from outside (played delightfully, by
Clara Barton) steps off the ship to
meet the entire town of Nome, and
there were not many women in town,
she discovers.
In the new Goldwyn Rex Beach re
lease. "The Girl from Outside." there
is an engaging young crook, "The
Curly Kid," who regularly gets
checks as he genially explains to his
pals, from his aunt. He usually
cashes her checks in the middle of
the night. But in the end he makes
a heavy deposit—his life—to his
"aunt's" account; a deposit which
more than makes up for all he has
drawn on her.
In Rex Beach's "The Girl from Out
side" the landing of a steamship
from Seattle at Nome is shown just
as conditions existed in 1900. No
• docks had then been erected, and the
Iship came to anchor in the harbor.
(Here large whaleboats took oft the
I passengers, who were then rowed
[ashore. In the shallow waters men
in high boots rushed out and carried
| the women from the whaleboats to
;tho sandy beach. This incident is
