Making Good Work Possible

AS long as n is on his feet, he can
work after a fashion, no matter how
badly he feels. But you cannot do
good work-have ambition and ener-
gy, feel that life is worth living--with
sluggish bowels or torpid liver. Foley
Cathartic Tablets do away with that
drowsy, dull, tired feeling. They new
err gripe or nausea. They're
wholesome, cleansing and healthful.
Most satisfactory for stout persons.

This hint strengthened runners
that the eastern front is destined 70
produce one Of the greatest CAM
paigns Of the entire European war
this winter. Moreover, reports Of
German evacuation Of Mitau and
withdrawal along . wide front from
the Riga region tended to confirm
the idea that big events are planned
by the Muscoyites.
The Russian line has been strength
ensd twofold by the arrival Of fresh
troops, vast supplies Of ammunition
and many big guns The Slavs are
now preparing to sweep down on .

The desperate lighting now mark
ing the Balkan campaign Is expected
soon to degenerate into desultory
trench battles. At the same time,
the western front is not expected 70
produce any more big drives until
spring. ssts
Meantime, however. Russia will be
heard from.
Reports that the Austro-G German
ranks in the east are thinning are not
credited here. But the preponder-
ance of heavy guns and munitions
which enabled the Germans to drive
through Poland has now apparently
turned to the Russians. and this Is
expected to give them the advantage
when they start their prospective Of
