The Danish government has not re

will follow the example of Holland in

A very important effect of the war
has been the shutting off of importa-
I tions of drugs. Many people stared
in astonishment, how sadly dependent
we are upon Europe. Nevertheless
there were some honorable exceptions,
Triner's American Elixir of Bitter
Wine amongst them. This excellent
remedy is the proper help for stom
ach disorders. It performs the double
service of cleaning and strengthening
the bowels, and by stimulating them
to normal function it removes the
basic trouble. In constipation, head
ache, nervousness, loss of appetite and
energy, general weakness, etc., a trial
is the most convincing argument.
Price $1.00, at drug stores. And if
you suffer from rheumatism or neu
ralgia, if you need help in accidents,
for sprains, strains, etc., or if you
only wish to refresh your tired mus
cles or feet, try Triner's Liniment,
which will convince you that there is
no better remedy for all such cases.

" Sold by airDrUGSt&ts.-'TCC." -
Lincoln, Neb., March '28. The sen
ate, late this afternoon concluded tho
amendment of the dry bill. The meas
ure was recommended for third lead
ing by an IS to !." vole, virtually the
vote which upheld the entire set of
amnednients offered bv Robertson of
Holt.
Albert of Platte, who ptood on mid
way ground between extreme drys and
anti-drys, voted against the bill in
final form. With him were these
democrats: Hager of Adams Chap
pell of Kearney, Ileal of Custer, How
ell of Douglas and Oberlies and Saw
yer of Lancaster. All other demo
crats approved the meau.-re.
Lahners of Thayer and Spiic of
Saline, republicans, voted for the
amended bill, while all other repub
licans opposed it
Passage of tho measure on third
reading is expected by the same vote.
Then the bill will go to the house.
There a motion to refuse to concur
will be made and carried
Conference committees will then b
named and upon their report back to
both houses, presumably after they
have conferred extensively with (Jov
ernor Neville, will depend the form
the ultimate measure will take.
The senate battle on the bill was
full of dreary routine, save at times
when the faction solidly in favor of
the house bill voted just as solidly
against the most drastic antitrans
portation clause that could be inserted
an amendment which is quite as dry
as anyone on the dry side could wish
for.

Stock Taking of (Jeriv.p.ny's Food
stuff Supply Causes (ieneral
Apprehension.
Copenhagen, March 28. The result
of the recent stock taking of the grain,
potatoes and other foodstuffs was so
unfavorable as to cause general ap
prehension, according to the Berlin
Vorwaerts, which quotes remarks
made before the reichstag committee
on food by the socialist deputy, Ebert.
The Vorwearts is the only Her! in pa
pare which carries an r.ccount of the
proceedings before, the committee.
According to the report, Deputy
Ebert said that an inventory showed
that the 191G yield of bread grains was
only 500,000 tons or fifteen pounds per
capita above the 1915 harvest, a har
vest which had been re-rarded as al
most calamitous. Earlier leports on
the 1916 harvest had described it as
good and a rationing scheme was
based on an estimated excess of 1,000,
000 tons. The reduction of the visible
supply by one-half explains the cut in
bread rations which was announced
by the authorities as son c.r. the re
sults of the ror-sus were ar hand.
Deputy EbiHt added that a similar
deficit apparently existed in other food
products and declared that part of the
missing foodstuffs had undoubtedly
vanished down the throats of cattle
and hogs which were fed on illegal
fodder by the farmers. He demanded
that everything imported from Ru
mania be reserved for human consumption.
