THE ARMY RATION
A Good Suggestion From An Old Soldier

The Government has been experiment

food 10 be used by soldiers in case Of
emergency when the army shall cut
loose from its base of supplies and cast
off it's wagon trains and the troops shall
carry their rations for a number of
days in their haversacks. While some
progress has been made the problem has
Bs{ yet been solved.

THE ROOT OF THE MATTER

A man of large affairs In one of our
prominent Eastern cities by too close
attention to business. too little exer-
else and too many club dinners, finally
began to pay natures tax. levied in the
form of chronic stomach trouble; the
failure of his digestion brought about
nervous irriability making II impossi-
bic to apply himself TO his daily busi-
ness and finally deranging the kidneys
and heart.
In his own words he says: II con-

each one seemed to understand my case,

stock in advertised medicines nor could

touch my case.
ITO make a long story short I finally

nearest drug store and took two or three

''I was surprised at the end OF the first

HARPER'S BOOK NEWS
The


A splendid romance of modern
italy by Richard Bagot, a writer to
whom the public confidently looks
always for fiction of the best kind.
The "LondOn Academy" says of
this new novel:
"Once more two young people,
head over heels in love, are re-
solved to marry in spite of insuper-
able difficulties, and once more We
hang upon the event as if it had
Eever happened before. Indeed, the
reader, who is carried away by the
mere momentum of the tale, might
do worse than retrace his steps at
leisure. For this is q book that will
certainly bear reading twice."
1t is wonderful picture of modern
Rome, with a touch of old-world
beauty in the Italian hill scenes.
The love tale is of the good, old
fashioned and thoroughly satisfy
ing sort.

MISSES CORSET COVER, 5oss.

The simpler the corset cover the more easily it can be made and the more easily it can be laundered. This one is cut in shirt waist style and provides just the fullness at the front that is needed for wear beneath the fashion able blouses, while it is plain across the shoulders at the back, so becoming thoroughly well adapted to girlish fig ures. In the illustration the material is Sea Island nainsook with trimming of Valenciennes lace. but lawn, batistc and long cloth are all appropriate, while the trimming can be either lace or embroidery.
 The corset cover is made with fronts
