the north bank Of the river Lipa and
are strengthening their new positions
on the entire front.

MAKING CHILDREN EAT

Nothing is ever gained by forcing g. child to eat when it refuses food. Make surethat nothing is being eaten between meals to destroy the natural appetite and if your growing child does nothave a healthful craving for good, honest food at mealtimes there is something . the matter Threats of punishment if the child does not eat will not correct the difficulty.
 A ftful appetite in 8 growing child, especially if the patient is pale, languid, nervous, irritable, and without ambi- tion, usually means that the blood is thin. A non-alcoholic tonic such as Dr. Williams Pink Pills is demanded.
 During her teens girl lays the foun- dation for her future health. Lack of blood at this time may rob her of robust, healthy womanhood. It is of the greatest importance to administer to girls who grow pale and weak a safe tonic and Dr. Williams Pink Pills meet every requirement. of the most careful mother. They make the blood rich and red and it carries renewed health and strength to every part of the body.
 Your own druggist sells Dr. Will liams' Pink Pills. Send today to the Dr. Williams Medicine Co.,, Schenec- tady, N. Y., for the book, Building Up the Blood" It is free.

 tThe nation is at work. The na- tion is at peace. The nation is ac- complaining the destiny of democracy. Four years ago the nation was not at work. With resources boundless, with a hundred million people eager to achieve and do, commerce lan- guished, industries halted, men were idle. The country struggled in the tolls of an inadequate financial sys- tenn. Credit was at the mercy of pir- acy. The small business man was bound hand and foot. Panic hung like a storm cloud over the business world.
 Now bursting granaries, teeming factories, crowded railways and over laden ships distribute wealth and
 comfort to uncounted millions the world over. Production outruns the
 means of distribution. The parallel
 of American prosperity is not found in
 industrial history; nor is it causeless.
