TAKE CARE OF
YOUR LIVER
And 1t VIII Take Care Of
Your Constipation.

The liver is supposed to furnish the
proper amount OF bile for the fntes-
tines. This bile has two purposes-to
help digest in the intestines that part
OF your food which the stomach is not
meant to digest and to act as natures
laxative and prevent constipa ton.
1t is plain to be seen then that oils
and the ordinary laxatives which do
not act on the liver give only tenn
porary relief. II you want to get real
and lasting results you've got to take
the remedy that acts on the liver and
causes II to furnish the bile which in
turn acts on the bowels. The name of
this simple but sure home treatment
IS Natures Remedy-popularly known
as Mr. Tablets.
An Mr. Tablet at night before re-
firing will tone up the stomach, put
your liver to work and in the morn
Ing act thoroughly, but without grip

hctally on the kidneys and purifies
the blood.
No household should be without its
box of Mr. Tablets-taken in time

much sickness arising from disor-

GUARDSMEN PUZZLED
OVER MATTER OF PAY

Just how. and how much. the National
'Guardsmen will be paid while at Camp
Ordway is a puzzling question to the off,
GERS of the camp and the government
The soldiers are also worrying about IT.
Each department OF the government
has different system Of paying off and
there are men from every government
department with the Guard. Many Of the
men think they should receive the
amount of pay usually given when they
are at annual encampments. This espe-
cially interests the artillerynen and cav
alrymen, who have not been mustered in.
They have not been given this encamp-
ment pay. and only those government en-
ployes who have leave coming to them
received pay from the departments for
the time while in camp. A favorable de-
cision OF the Comptroller of the Treasury
may give them the encampment pay,
however.

baggage, one freight and three nat cars
will be necessary to carry the Field Hos
pital. and the Signal Company will need
about the same number. The First Sep
arate Battalion will use about twenty
cars. Each man will occupy tourist
sleeper berth, and the escort wagons VIII
be blocked on fiat cars. Baggage cars
will carry the extra supplies of the men
and the organizations. Capt Oliver Z.
Terry will be quartermaster of the train.
The Signal Corps Company now has
seventy-one men Its officers are Capt.
oliver C. Terry and First Lieuts. George
c. Lands and r. NJ. MacIennan- The
Field Hospital has Just two men below
war strength, sixty-five, and these two
places are being held open for a black
smith and a saddler. Maj. Charles II.
Bowker is in command. Other officers are
Capts. Clarence M Dolman and William
B. Hudson. Lieuts. ]. B. Began and
Henry F.. Sawtelle.
The First Separate Battalion consists
of four companies of about 30 mer
each. Maj. James Walker is In command
Today will be spent in checking equip
ment and in transporting supplies to the
cars. Transportation will be by motoi
truck as none of the organizations have
any horses, although the Field Hospital
needs about 80. and the Signal Corps
will need abut 70. Animals will be sup
piled at the border. All canvas will be
carried with the troops and 1t is prob
able that tonight the tents will be
dropped, and the men will spend theil
last night at Camp Ordway.

War SUMMARY
PROGRESS OF CONDITIONS AS
COMPILED BY THE ASSO-
GATED PRESS.

New York, Aug. Especial: The
French and British, striking with
terrific force in three directions on
the Somme front, have stormed near
ly three miles of German trenches,
driving forward at points to a depth
of 800 to 500 yards.
The most important gains were
made by the British and French
troops, striking north from the point
where the allied lines meet. Maui
repas and Clery, two of the most i'm
portant points held by the Germans
in this sector, have been thanked on
both sides, according to the official
statement issued by Paris. The road
also has been reached between Maui
repas and G~uillemont. the latter
town being the immediate objective
of the British. This advance. it is
maintained, brings the allies direct
ly in front of the large railroad town
of Combles.
South of the Somme the French
stormed German trenches over a
length of about three-quarters of a
mile, driving forward in a southerly
direction from Belloy-en-Santerre
Paris reports hat a considerable
number of prisoners were taken in
these operations.
For the first time in many days no
important action is reported from the
Russian front and the same dearth
of news prevails in regard to the
Italian operations. The most inter
esting item of news regarding the
Italian advance against Trieste is
contained in a news dispatch from
Milan, whic hsays that German
troops are to be employed in the de
Tense of the big Austrian port. If
co%rroborated, this means that Italy
and Germany at last will enter an
active state of war.
