THE JUY IF
MOTHERHOOD
Came to this Woman after
Taking Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound to
Restore Her Health
Ellensburg, Wash." After t was
married 1 was not well for a long time
ana a good deal of
the time was not
able to go about.
Our greatest desire
was to have a child
in our home and one
day my husband
came back from
town with a bottle
of Lydia E. Pink
ham's Vegetable
Compound and
wanted me to try it.
It brought relief
from Tnv trnnWoo
I improved in health so I could do my
housework; we now have a little one, all
of which I owe to Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound." Mrs. O. S
Johnson, R. No. 3, Ellensburg, Wash!
There are women everywhere who
long for children in their homes yet are
denied this happiness on account of
some functional disorder which in most
cases would readily yield to Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
Such women should not give up hope
until they have given this wonderful
medicine a trial, and for special advice
write Lydia E. Pinkham Medicine Co.,
Lynn, Mass. The result of 40 years
experience is at your service.
WIDE TOLD THE TRUTH
"Willie," demanded Mr. Smith sav
agely of his offspring, "did you eat
any of those pears I left in the cup
board?" "Pa," answered the youthful Geo.
Washington, "I cannot tell a lie; I
did .not touch, one."
The parent eyed his child wrath
fully. "Then how is it," he asked
sternly, "that I found three pear
cores in your bedroom and only one
pear left in the cupboard?"
Willie dissolved rapidly toward the
garden gate. "Father," he said, "that
is the one I didn't touch."
CHAMBERLAINS TABLETS.
When you are troubled with, indi
gestion or constipation, take Cham
berlain's Tablets. They strengthen
the stomach and enable it to per
form its functions naturally. Indi
gestion is usually accompanied by
constipation and is aggravated by it.
Chamberlain's Tablets cause a gentle
piovement of the bowels, relieving the
constipated condition.

STRICKEN SECTIONS.
With a view of mothering children
of Kentucky orphaned by influenza,
plans ar$ being made by the Ameri
can Red Cross to conduct an. elabor
ate survey of sections of the State
most seriously affected by the dis
ease. This work is now in the hands of
the Department of Civilian Relief of
the Lake Division of the Red Cross.
A conference was held in Louisville
yesterday, at which, the work of orga
nization was perfected.
Information regarding the project
was received by R. C. Ballard Thrus
ton, State Director in Kentucky of
the American Red Cross, and Mr-
Kenzie Todd, executive secretary of
the State organization, through a
long-distance telephone conversation
with the Lake Division headquarters
at Cleveland.
Prof. R. J. Corlbert and Sterr
Cadwallader, assistant directors of
the Department of Civilian Relief,
Lake Division, headed the delegation.
They were accompanied bv five other
pnen who are considered authorities
on problems such as will be found in
the mountains of Kentucky.
The mountain section will be the
center of the efforts of the Red Crops,
as the conditions are worse in that
section of the State than elsewhere.

FLOUR PLUS WATER IS HARD

Working Under the glass roofs of a
half dozen buildings of "many-acred
floors, they are helping tend the au
tomatic machinery that mixes white
flour from America into sheets, cuts
the sheets into pieces, and runs the
pieces on trays over endless belts into
ovens, from which they come out
scorching hot as hard biscuits.
No hands touch the product from
the time it leaves the flour sack to
the time it comes out crisp and brown
and hot.
While the hard bread is still warm,
it is packed in the paper cartons in
which it finally reaches the men at
the front.
Incidentally, hard bread is probably
the simplest and purest baked pro
duct the soldier eats. It has two in
gredients flour and water. There's
an art in mixing the flour and water
in the proper percentages, and the
percentages vary according to the
flour.
The army's hard bread factories
also are baking "petits beurres" for
the army the best of those little but
ter and sugar biscuits that can be
bought in France. These are suppli
ed at cost to the commissaries for re
sale to the soldiers.

SHIP WITH A BASEMENT.
(Popular Mechanics)
An interesting and unusual piece
of engineering has changed a ship,
which for years has been the floating
home of sailors, into a land structure
that will never ride the waves again.
The vessel so transformed is the Com
modore, which lay at anchqr. in the
Chicago River in days of peace, spr
ing as headquarters for the Illinois
naval militia.
Since the outbreak of the war it
has served as a receiving ship for the
navy.
Since the vessel was. never to be
used for navigation again and was
being badly racked by storms, it was
recently decided to fill in around the
hull with clay and rock. A. bulk
head, made of rock and forty-foot
piles, was built close to the boaf on
the lakeward side and at -the ends
and the intervening space filled in
with clay, well tamped down.

LABOR DEPARTMENT WILL HELP
IN DEMOBILIZATION
Plans for the demobilization of
the military and naval forces of the
United States, now being prepared by
the war, navy and labor departments,
will be submitted soon to President
Wilson. Preliminary details of the
plans known provide for the muster
ing out of the men on the basis of
length of service and on the ability
of trades and occupations to absorb
the released men.
Labor needs of employers already
are being canvassed by the war in
dustries board through question
naires. Community labor boards and
local draft boards will co-operate in
determining the nature of work and
when it will be available.
The work of the department of la
bor in the assembling of the returned
soldiers and sailors will be conducted
through the United States employ
ment service and the War Labor pol
icies board. Creation within the war
department of a new bureau to han
dle the problem is expected.. Labor
department officials have expressed
the opinion that under the plans now
being formulated by the three de
partments the more than four million
in service overseas, in this country
and on the sea can be demobilized
without any resultant nonemploy-ment.

CTAMBEB&AIN'S' COUGH KEMEDY
Before using this preparation for a
Cough or cold you may wish to know
what it has done for others. Mrs. O.
Cook, Macon, 111., writes, "I have
found it gives the quickest relief of
any cough remedy I have ever used."
Mrs. James A. Knott, Chillicothe,
Mo., says "Chamberlain's Cough Rem'

colds." H. J. Moore, Oval, Pa., says,
"I have used Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy on several occasions when I

NEW USE TOR THE WHITE EAT,
For the first time, so far as is gen
erally known, the albino rat has been
adapted to a useful purpose. It was
conceded to be less destructive and
in all ways less disagreable than its
gray cousin, but it had never been
credited with usefulness in the econ-.
omy of nature. Now it comes into
importance as a barometer for the use
of high-flying aviators. The rodent
inclosed in a suitable cage,, is placed :
within view of the pilot. The latter,
when high altitudes have been reach
ed' notes the conduct of the rat. When
the animal begins to show symptoms
of weariness, the aviator knows that
the limit of safety has been reached
and he turns the prow of his craft
downward. It is said that wliite rats
are now being systematically raided,
and are in great demand as barome
ters.
