The Correct Laxative for Women

Mere physical beauty, enticing as il is
will not permanently avail in the abb
sence of clean, fresh, healthy skin and
complexion. A woman may have per
feet features, a youthful form and a
graceful figure, but without the health
and bloom of a clear skin, perfect beauty
is impossible.
When the skin is muddy or cloudy or
marred by moth spots and pimples, nine
times in ten it is due to natures inabil-
ty to perform the function essential to
perfect health.
Many Barre, East Barre and Cabot
lady could truthfully tell of the remark
able properties of SEAVER'S LAXA-
TIVE TONIC TABLETS as a skin beau
tifer, and the reason is easy to find.
They are purely vegetable extracts
known to have a selectiye action for the
skin
They improve the complexion, clear up
the skin, enrich the blood, stimulate the
liver, tone up the intestines and cure
chronic constipation by encouraging the
bowels and assisting nature to do its own
perfect work.
Red Cross Pharmacy, or Frank Roark,
or >. G. Voodry & Co, Cabot, recommend
them with every confidence, and 25-cent
package of SEAVER'S LAXATIVE TON
&c TABLETS must do as is claimed of
them or you can have your money back.

THE ARMY AND MENTAL DISEASE
one-Fifth of Discharges for Disease Due
to Mental Ailment.

The mental anguish, depicted by tn
numerous tales of suicide, madness ant
desertion among soldiers, TO say nothing
OF mental frenzy expressing itself il
leads us to realize that there have beer
from our illfated friends across the sea
leads us to rea lie that here have beer
made as yet no scientific studies of the
effect OF war on the minds of officers anc
enlisted men in the army. Fortunately
Tor our nation, there has been no Oh,
portunity to study the effect, on a large
BODY OF men, OF short ratons, loss OF
sleep, great emotionalism, eXhaustinp
exposure, excessive physical excrtion
Inconsistencies, etc, yet these in combi-
nation produce strain that might well
prove fatal to the equilibrium of many
mind that in regular routine would
show no weakness. To be mentally
sound in such conditions is OF more i'm
portance than to pass the eyesght test,
or to be typhoid proof
In the light OF modern phychiatry it
is rumored that more than one great
battle has been lost by general who
was in the early stage Of paresis and
doubtless dozens OF men who have met
the fate of deserters had their doom
written on their brains. Although the
mental effects of war strain have not
been studied, our war department has
been carrying on, under the surgeon
generals advice, very interesting in
quiry concerning the mental status OF
the army. The studies show that the
mentally defective, form an important
mn nd
OF all the discharges for diseases or
external causes, practically speaking,
one-ffth are on account of mental dis
ease in some form That Is to say, out
of LOOP men discharged in 1912 on ac-
count Of disability from all causes, more
than 200 We're found to be mentally dis
eased or defective during the year; and
these did not include the retirements for
or hysteria, which, although
the patients are not insane in the ac-
cepted sense. are in reality mental dis
eases that will seriously affect ones eff
tieiencv in time of strain
OF all the mental diseases. it was
found that dementia praecox was by far
the most frequent form; it averaged
about Of per cent. each year of all the |
dismssals. The report gives clear, I
concise outline of the modern conception
of dementia praecoX, explaining the /
way in which it may appear in the army |
n young men who have never shown any
u the symptoms OF responsibility |
when sheltered by their parents or
friends. but who cannot get along"
when they are required to speak, act,
md even think in prescribed and or
lerly fashion
The symptoms, with the vivid case de-
criptions that follow, will afford the
ocular army surgeon much insight into
asses that would seem to be merely un-
disciplined. In fact, the text of this bull
etin. says The Journal of the American
ledical association, will be of tremen
Gus social value to every officer as well
5 to any one dealing with large bodies
/ men whether in reform schools
risons, factories or mines.
