DO You Open Your Mouth

Like young bird and gulp down what
ever food or medicine may be offered you =?
Or, do you want to know something of the
composition and character Of that which
you take into your stomach whether as
food or medicine?
Most intelligent and sensible people
nowadays insist on knowing what they
employ whether as food or as medicine.
Dr. Pierce believes they have a perfect
right to insist upon such knowledge. So he

By Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, Jan. S.-The hard
times In the Industrial world that have
driven into the marine corps and the
navy nearly all of the men needed to
fill the authorized quotas have not helped
the army so far in the matter Of recruit
ing.
Reports still flow in on the war depart
ment of the failure to secure recruits,
of privates buying their discharges, Of
non-commissioned officers refusing to re-
enlist and of resulting skeleton organiza-
tions that are little more than travestles
upon fighting forces.
A report just at hand is one from Fort
Mcintosh. Texas in which the command
ing officer of battalion Of the Nine
teenth infantry says:
''I have present today in the four COM
panies fifty-six men and twenty-nine of
these are to be discharged this month.
At the end of this month if we get no re-
cruits, one company will have three men
and another four. The other two COM
panies will have eleven and twelve men
respectively
The report is one of a number being
collected for the enlightenment of con-
gress in dealing with the great question
of what is wrong with the army?''
At the instance of the president, AS
sistant Secretary Oliver of the war de-
partment has notified the governors of
the various states and territories of his
desire that they designate a single repre-
sentative of the national guard of each
state and territory to take the competi-
tive examination for appointment as Sec
ord lieutenant in the regular army under
the conditions and limitations prescribed
in the case of all civilian appointees ac-
cording to their standing In the examina-
he naf
may exist in the army This action is
taken both with a view of encouraging
members of the militia and of securing
material for the army. The militiamen
nominated must have at least two years
service in the national guards.

regards as a perfectly legitimate feeling
of resentment.
"If it is the first of these, she will come
through fire and water to testify, ana
she will see things as her friend views
them. Sincerely and earnestly she VIII
testify that things are as she thinks they
ought to be, and you may cross-examine
until you have exhausted the vocabulary
and you will get nothing from her but
her ideas of what they ought to be.
"A woman has no idea of the sanctity
of an oath. and woman will repeat
when on oath anything which she will
say when not on oath.
IF she comes as your witness, impelled
by a feeling of resentment be careful
not to let her tell why she came. Get
your main point out of her as expeditions
ly as possible and let her go; do not
branch off into collateral matters, or she
will take the first opportunity to vindicate
herself for appearing by telling the
grudge she has against the defendant"

He didn't use those words exactly, but
the Associated Press quotes him as
saying;
Remember, gentlemen of the bar. an
oath means nothing TO woman, and, as
Horace has so truthfully expressed 1t,
when a woman starts out to perjure her
self all h cannot keep her record
"a woman always comes to testify as

said. EITHER she comes through sense
Of affection or duty to those whom she
