Beautiful Opening Scenes.
The much talked of Allegorical
opening scene in the second official
United States government war fiim,
"America's Answer," i3 the work of
Sidney Olcott, who's lame as a director
of motion pictures is world wide.
It might also be stated in passing that
Mr.- Olcott is the recipient of the honor
for having suggested "America's
Answer" as the title of this wonderful
picture. The Allegory itself takes
form in the slowly appearing dark
clonds of war that have enveloped |
the world as a result of the machina- i
tions of the Archfiend of Teutonic ,
domination. These clouds are seen i

figure of Columbia, who stands. Old j

of Berlin across the shell torn ter,

the service. In the center stands the
hooded figure of a keen eyed aviator
scanning the clouds for his adversary.
while cn his right, bayonet fired

trace ot the trouble. It gives quick
relief to croupy children and is splendid
for bronchitis, tonsilitis, catarrh,
headaches, neuralgia, sore throat,
burns, cuts and bruises, and the hundred
little troubles that beset the
average household. Put up in 25c jars

"I had stomach trouble and constipation
very bad tor a long time. Tried
everything, but kept getting worse. I
could hardly cat anything and my
bowels wouldn't move unless 1 took a
physic every day. I have to support
my sell and two children, yet I
was not able to work.
"The first bottle of Milks Emulsion
did wonders for me, and I have
continued its use until now I feel
fine and can work every day. 1 have
a good appetite, my stomach trouble
has left me, and my bowels are as
regular as clock work."?Mrs. Mary
Widner, 103 S. Court St., Sioux City,
Iowa.
Mrs. Widner found out what all sufferers
should know?that pills, salts
and nhysics do not end constination.
but usually make It worse.
Milks Emulsion Is a pleasant, nutritive
food and a corrective medicine.
It restores healthy, natural
bowel action, doing away with all
need ot pills and physics. It promotes
appetite and quickly puts the digestive
organs in shape to assimilate
food. As .a builder of flesh and
strength. Milks Emulsion is strongly
recommended to run-down nervous
people, and it has produced amazing
results in many cases of asthma,
chronio bronchitis, and tuberculosis
OL U? 1UU?B. VDrODIC SlUUUUl trouble
and constipation are promptly relieved?usually
to one day.
This is the only solid emulsion
made, and so palatable that it is eaten
with a spoon liko loe cream. A
truly wonderful medicine for weak,
sickly children.
