WASHINGTON, June 29—The gov
ernment has published the full eon
tents of the second note to Germany in
relation to the sinking of the Frye by
the consent of Germany who has
agreed to the subject being given pub
licity. The note reiterates the con
tention expressed in the first message
that the sinking of the Frye was with
out justification and in defiance of in
ternational law. The government also
insists that the amount of indemnity
cannot be diseused and in no sense
will the United States agree to submit
the matter to a prize court. The note
insists that the only matter at issue
is the unjusl 111 cable sinking of the ves
sel.

By Charles G. Percival, M. D.
To keep well one should avoid con
tracting catarrh. Catarrh which is one
of the commonest of American disor
ders is responsible for 75 per cent of all
the lung troubles. Most eases of lung
diseases begin with catarrh which had
originated in the nose, the throat or
the head and spreads through the
bronchial tubes to the smaller tubes in
the lungs and even to the minute air
cells. Catarrh creates an unwhole
some mucus. This mucus if allowed
to gather and impregnate the tissues
will destroy the lungs, impair the eye
sight, hearing and sense of smell and
taste. It is not necessary for there to
be bacteria as this mucus creates bac
teria by further decomposing in the
lung tisues. Bacteria is in the air all
tile time and finds a more acceptable
breeding place in lungs weakened by
catarrh than they would in clean
healthy organs. Thus they are enabled
to breed In safety and greater virul
ence. If yoiy have catarrh attend to
it at once. Consult a reputable physi
cian immediately and have him treat
you for it. Follow his instructions
Implicitly, get rid of the catarrh and
thus ward off any possible chances
of later contracting insidious lung dis
eases. Watch out for catarrh.
Make the diet of nourishing foods,
keep the mucus linings of the nose
and throat clean and healthy, see the
body is in a state of perfect domina
tion, bathe frequently, keep the mouth
closed and breathe through the nose.
Many' suffer from sick headaches.
Ask for the reason. Of the existing
causes for sick headaches the writer
knows only the following and the
treatment will readily suggest itself: 1,
NOTICE TERM OF COURT
Pursuant to an order of Court made
and entered on the 2nd day of June,
1916, Notice Is Hereby Olven that a
Special Term of the District Court of
the District of Alaska, Second Division
thereof, will be held in the Court House,
in the City of "Nome, in the Division
and District nforesaid, commencing on
Wednesday, the 7th day of July, 1915,
at the hour of eleven o’clock in the
forenoon, and continuing from day to
day thereafter according to the further
orders from the Court.
Given under my hand and with the
seal of the Court affixed this 2nd day
of June, 1915.

Clerk of the District Court for the
District of Alaska, Second Division.

and too much moving picture show; li,
too rich a diet in protetds.
A reader asks as to the value of hot
water and whether il should be taken
at meals or not. To ihose who have
no ills there is no need of taking hot
water at any time. Cold water will
do. Hot water with the meals keeps
the urine free and abundant and pre
vents and tends to cure many kidney
diseases, gall stones and gravel. To
those who are well don't drink hot
water or in fact any water at meals.
Meals should lie eaten dry and liquids
taken at the completion "f the meal or
between meals.
Some people who are perfectly well
but who, because of hard work or sed
netary habits, require extra fluids, and
hot water is the best way to provide
them. The young who eat heartily,
exercise freely, drink plenty of water
between meals, do not need to drink
With their meals at all, but the older
ones who rarely drink between meals,
whose business requires them to stay
in doors most of the time and who get
little or no exroise, will find It greatly
to their benefit to drink hot water dur
ing their meals.
Tile excessive consumption of meat
is without doubt to blame for much
of America's disease. Many leading
medical authorities blame an exces
sive meat diet for the great prevalence
of cancer in the United States where
each person disposes of 172 pounds of
meat a year.
In England the yearly meat consump
tion is 2fi0 pounds per capita, double
the rate of fifty years ago. Cancer has
Increased fourfold. In Ireland the rate
Is forty pounds, with a death rate of
but one-half thnt Of England. In Italy,
where the per capita consumption of
meat is smallest, the deatli rate from
cancer is also the lowest. The con
sumption of meat per capita in this
country lias reached the enormous rate
of 172 pounds, and in the last five
years cancer deaths have been increas
ed seven or eight per cent Practical
ly the same conclusions can he drawn
from the use of coffee, ten ami alcohol.
