What To Do For
 Nervous Indigestion

When nerves go wrong they always seem to strike at your weakest spot. When this spot happens to be the stomach, nervous dyspepsia results, appetite vanishes and gives way to dull dread. uneasiness and hollow. gnawing feeling that keeps up until every nerve in your body seems on edge. The food you force down wont digest properly, and you're all in down and out for one day at least so far as being really useful to your self or anyone else is concerned.
 Its the height of folly to force the digestion of food with some pepsin pill when the stomach nerves are in such shape. Nervous indigestion comes from the nerves alone. Get the nerves right and all distress will vanish.
 Thanks to a remarkable chemical discovery, it is now possible to feed the nerve cells with the exact stir1- ulus they require when overworked and unstrung and preparation call ed Margo Nerve Tablets is producing remarkable results in the treatment of Nervous Dyspepsia, and other nerve disorders. They make a re- markable change in any person in ten minutes by the watch, strength ening the stomach and charging the nerve cells with strength, poise, power and tremendous reserve en- ergy and giving nerves of steel clear head and brain, courage, pow CT, quick wit, and real vital vim. Mar go Nerve Tablets cannot harm any one. They contain no dope or dan gerous habit-forming drugs. Forty tablets come in a large package, and this Is enough to give lasting relief to even the most obstinate cases. Tho Clark & Brainerd Co.,, New Britain ana other leading druggists every where are selling them with a posi- tive guarantee Of satisfaction or money back.

GREECE ENOTPRESSED

Teutons and Bulgars Merely De- sire Balkan State Remain Neutral

Vienna, December 11.--It is authoritatively stated here that the Central Powers have brought no pres sure whatever to bear on Greece.
 The view is held that the position of Greece is difficult in the highest de- gree and that the Greek government is endeavoring to preserve not only neutrality but complete independence. Tn position is taken here, therefore, that pressure upon Greece is hardly called for and would even be useless

so long the Athens government is able to assert it's own interests.
 The interest of the Central Powers, it is stated, is merely that Greece shall remain neutral, no more and no less.
 Created Right for TeutOns.
 It is held by officials that the fact that Greece gave her consent for the entente powers to send troops across Greek territory and to take other military steps created a right for the Teutonic and Bulgarian troops to do the same. Military experts here express the belief that the entente powers hardly will try to make good their reported threat to create a Gib- raltar out of Saloniki, the geographi- cal and political situation of that place being regarded as unfitted for defensive purposes. However, if the entente allies should try in this man. ner to create a base, it is declared, the artillery that reduced Antwerp would have something to say.
 The entente allies would err. it is declared, in assuming that any under taking in the Balkans would be too great for the Central Powers. The interests of Greece would in any case be respected, it is stated, but the entente troops on Greek territory would be attacked energetically, which course, it is maintained nobody would condemn. The deIimitation of the arena of war would then be Greece's affair and would depend up- on the movements of the entente troops.
 Central Powers Confident.
 The utmost confidence is expressed in authoritative quarters here con- corning the Balkan situation, since the Central Powers, it is claimed are able to confront whatever forces the entente allies land at Saloniki or elsewhere with forces greatly su- perior in numbers. The lines of communication for the Central allies and the Bulgarians already are in good condition, which is hardly the case with the entente allies, it is said.
