The Otljr Thlog (MHXI Knough To Stand «iioh A Tent Tou know us well as we that you can't tell anything: about a truss' or anything: else for rupture merely by trying it on. That's the worst of going to H drug store or local truss fitter's. A truss or so-called "appliance" may seem all right when you first put it oti. and afterwards prove utterlv worth ies* The only way in the world you can make sure of exactly what vou're get ting is by n CO days' trial—a tlinronch day-after-day tost. And our guaranteed rupture holder— the famous Vluthe Automatic .Massag ing Truss—"is the only thing of any kind whatever for rupture that vou can get on sixty days trial, the only tiling good enough to *tnnd such a long and thor ough test. »oinethlag Xothing Else Does The Cluthe Automatic Massaging Truss is so utterly different from any thing else tor rupture that it lias re ceived eighteen separate patents.

Mill Save lou From Operation The Cluthe Truss has so thoroughlv proved ! ts merits that physicians in all parts of the world and surgeons in the I . S.

CiTBEHS FLEE 111 TURFROfIII V Awful Scenes Enacted : at Fall of Antwerp Just Before Germans Enter the City LAST AND MOST PITIFUL EXODUS Part of Populaca That Had Resolved' to Stay In Olty Abandon Cellars and Retreats and Follow Belgian Army in Flight ■ London, Oct. 12, 3.03 A. M.—"The ; ing the departure of the government: j <i»ted midnight. Thursday, though the burgomaster did not go out to surren der the city until 8 o'clock the next morning and the Germans did not en ter until then,'' a "Morning Post" correspondent in Belgium says. '"By midnight Thursday it was clear that further re9istence to the attack-j ing German army was vain and the field forces and garrison forces on our side began to be withdrawn to the west side of the river Scheldt.' Throughout the night of Thursday the citizens who remained in the city had every prompting to terror. Smoke from burning oil tanks enveloped the city 1 in a dark pall to which the flames of burning houses gave a lining of lurid ! yellow. Through this pall shrieking shells of 28 centimeter guns crashed like thunuerboits as they sent buildings actually pouring into the streets. Be neath, the pall of smoke along the shat-j tered city went hurriedly the ranks of the fleeing army. _ Many Had Resolved to Stay '"Mauy of the people of Antwerp bed resolved to withstand the bom- j bardment and were content to stay burrowing among the ruins so long as the Germans couid be kept out. To them the road of the defending army was the last flow of fate. They aban doned the cellars and retreats anil set out in flight. It was the last and most pitiful exodus for tnose citizens. They passed to the Dutch frontier or to ward the quays and some met their' death from bombardment. "On Friday morning the bombard nient slackened. Seeking the reason I found the headquarters of the Belgian array in the vaults under the central railway station deserted. A railway porter who stood outside stolid and apathetic, told me the soldiers had gone and that the Germans would be, there in half an hour. At the Hotel De ' Ville it was evident that important I business was afoot. a* officials hurried to and fro with anxious faces. At 8 o'clock the following proclamation dated October 7, was posted aunounc will measure the importance the gov- Proclamation Announcing Departure "'After long hesitation and vain attempts to secure a victory on other fields of battle the German army has i pursued for a month now the siega ot'i the fortified position of Antwerp. In j these circumstances the government ' has the duty not onlv to maintain its MAP OF THE CITY OF ANTWERP, SHOWING WHERE THE BELGIANS LEFT AND THE GERMANS ENTERED ReFUSEEA Germans communications with all parts «f the country not occupied- by the enemy, but also to place safe-from all risk the liberty of it* deliberation* and ac tioas and the continuity of its rela tions with guaranteeing powers and with other nations who accord to our; valiant country their sympathies and 1 good wishes. " 'Sacrificing itself *o the imper ious obligations of which all patriots sured to the government perfect tran ernment has decided to transfer itself to another point of national territory. It quits Antwerp with a grateful mem ory of generous hospitality and takes pleasure in proclaiming that, faithful to a high national mission, this faith ful city has for almost two months as sured to the government perfect trans quility in carrying out all public func tions. Will Resist With Obstinacy " 'After, as before its departure, the army will oppose to the enemy most obstinate resistance. The government has the certainty that the valiant pop ulation of Antwerp will in turn support it with stoicism over common trials, with the same sentiment of patriotism as our other cities and more humble villages, ami will await with unbroken confidence the approaching hour of de liverance and reparation.' "At 8.30 o'clock. Burgomaster De Vos with three of his Sheriffs entered a motor car and went in soareh of General Von Beseler, German com mander in charge of the attack. The burgomaster bore himself r»ith quiet dignity. The burgomaster had hardly left the Hotel De V'ille when the bom bardment was renewed fiercely. Several shells fell around the municipal of fices, wrecking theui. In the cellars were RII the consular representatives remaining in the city snd they were unharmed. Warning Against Pillage "At 11.30 o'clock the bombard ment ceased and shortly afterwards the burgomaster sent a message to his office to post proclamations warning the population against committing any acts of pillage and stating that the burgomaster had taken over the entire government of the city in an endeavor to preserve urder. Another proclamation directed the citizens to give up all arms and ordered the police to make a house to house canvass to see that this was done. It wa"ned the popu late to commit no acts against the Germans. Those fleeing the city were advised to take ample blankets and food. It was announced that the civic authorities would continue at their posts. "At noon a messenger announced at the Hotel De Ville that the Germans were entering by the Jlaiines gate."

He says the action, which is entirely new. is delightfully responsive to tho most delicate touch. He also jays on a splendid feature is the net* swell or gan and swell box which is made of the heaviest wood ho has over seen used for the purpose. This makes a great dif ference in the resonance and carrying quality of the tone, as il is practically impossible for it to crack and produce an unpleasant vibration. Many builders neglect this important requisite on ac count of the expense of handling and shipping heavy timbers. This new swell box enhance' the sweet tone of tho old organ which has been retained by us ing Hip old pipes. The organ is now much more ac cessible on account of the ma n wind reservoir having be.cn moved into nil adjoining room, this giving additional space for the now parts and affording great convenience for the future caro of the instrument. A series of large wind trunks con nect the various air chambers of the organ with the main reservoir, running under the floor through a 35 inch brick wall to the organ. This re quired lots of patient and skillful wurk which was nearly all done by Mr. Buhrman himself. Professor Decevee says only a build er of the rarest skill and ingenuity could successfully carry out such a feat as this. Mr. Buhrman has ha I years of experience in one of the est factories ill the world, acting as one time as overseer. He did a similar piece of splendid work in this city several years ago, which has proven very satisfactory, indeed ho is a vertiable genius in organ building, and his work has given so much satisfac tion that lie is in constant demand, an 1 a church should consider itself fortti nate that can obtain his services in looking after its organ. Another good feature of the Salem Reformed church organ is the concave radiating pedal keyboard, whereas the old one was straight, and level. There are two full pedal stops of richness and resonance. In all, the organ contains almost 1,000 pipes and is now splendidly adapted lo any reasonable demands that, can be made upon it. Especially fine is the even tone quality of the organ. Both the great and swell organ con tains a goodly number of actual speak ing stops besides the usual amount of accessories necessary to an organ of this size. The front pipes arc of gold finish anil the outside case walnut to correspond with the wood-work of the church. Wind is supplied to the organ by means of electricity. j ~~ j eytown, W. J.
