mission to the central ofllcor6' train- '

and when the next increment of em
bryo officers will arrive at the school 1
for a four months' training on October ;
13. it is expected that approximately "0 i
per cent of tho men will have come '
from civil life. There will be three
classes who will report to this school.
The largest, comprising SO per cent,
will come from the enlisted personnel
of the army. Ten per cent will come
from civilians who are class 1 men un
der the selective service act. who will
be drafted at their own request and
forwarded to the school. They will bo
Inducted into the service for the period
of the war and in event they fail suc
cessfully to complete the course, will
serve as enlisted men. Another 10 per
cent will come from deferred classes
other than those men. who receive ex
emption on account of industry, occu- |
pation or employment, including agri-j
culture. It is interpreted from the rul- ;
lng that men engaged in essential in
dustries and who have been exempted,
will not be allowed to resign their
positions and enter the school. Those
coming from other deferred classes,
such as married men, will be inducted .
for the period of the war, but if they
fail to maintain the pace required it
will be optional with thorn whether or j
not they continue in the service.
The civilian candidates will be ex
amined by officers in charge of military
| work at the designated schools. At
1 present these are the same as they
were several months hko before volun
tary induction into the service was
stopped. An amended list, which will
noon lie issued, will probably show all
schools which are members of the stu
dent army training corns. At present,
the Virginia schools include Virginia
Polytechnic Institute, Virginia Military
Institute, Washington and l.ee. Uni
versity of Virginia and Staunton Mili
tary Academy. Any civilian applicants,
either of the old or new draft ages, who
} desi/e to attend the schools should
| make application to the colleges men
! tioned. Under no conditions should
] they be made to the school here, or
, to the War Department.

class of about sixty men, who will be
commissioned.
Two thousand Virginia negroes will
arrive hero in a three-day period, be

DAILY HEALTH TALKS
Wlint Doctor Pierce Has
Done For Humanity.
BY DOCTOR CIUPPS.
It lias always seemed to me that Dr.
Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y., should be
placed near the top when a list of
America's great benefactors Is written,
lie studied and conquered human dis
cuses to a degree that few realize. I
Whenever he found a remedy that over- I
came disease, he at once announced it '
In the newspapers and told where it ,
could bo bought at a small price. lie j
did not follow the usual custom of j
keeping the ingredients secret, so that
the rich only could afford to buy the i
medicine, but openly printed the name j
of each root and herb he used. And
so to-day the names of Dr. Pierce and
his medicines are widely known, and
they stand for better health and better
citizenship.
One of this great physician's most
successful remedies is known as Doctor
Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. Th-ie are
little, sugar-coated pills, composed of j
Maynpple, leaves of alloe, root of jalap I
?things that Nature grows in the I
ground. These Pellets are safe because
they move the bowels gently, leaving
no had after-effects, aa so many pills j
do. Very often they make a person
who takes thein feel lU<e a now man
or womjtn, for they cleanse the Intes
tines of hard, decayed and poisonous
matter that accumulates when one is
costive, if you are constipated, by all !
means go to your druggist and gel j
somo of Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets.
They may provo to be tho very thing
your system requires to make you well
and happy.?Adv.

Thero is real common sense in
just notieir.s whether tho hair is
well kept to Judge of a woman's
neatness or good taste. If you are
one of tho fow who try to ntuko the
most of your hair, remember that
it is not advisable to wash the hair
with any cleanser made for all pur
poses, but always use some good
shampoo. You can enjoy the very
best by getting somu Canthrox from
your druggist, dissolve a teaapoon
ful in a cup of hot water. This
makes u full cup of shampoo liquid,
enough so itis easy to apply It to
all the hair Instead of just the
top of the head. Dandruff. excess
oil and dirt are dissolved and en
tirely disappear. Your hair will bo
so fluffy that It will look much
heavier than it is. Its luster and
softness will also dolight you, while
the stimulated scalp h'ains the
health which Insures hair growth.
