Doctors Eat This
Cereal Instead of
Drugs for Their

no one realizes so well as the physician

bnued use Of drugs to regulate the bowels.
Until recently, drugs, mineral waters and
oils seemed the only dependable relief, but
today many doctors, large number Of hospi-
talS and sanitariums are prescribing and US
ing cereal that is composed of the finest
selected wheat faxed and toasted, crushed
max seed roasted, and given delicious taste
by savoring with ground celery seed and
salt. It is highly efficient even in obstinate
chronic cases Of constipation and usually
gives quick relief TO the various degrees of
indigestion and stomach trouble. This new
cereal Is as delicious TO eat as any break
tast food, or ready to serve cereal when
eaten with sugar and milk or fruits. Ask
your grocer for Uncle Sans Health Food
and quit the use Of drugs. pills and mineral

NELSON PROVING
POLICE PROBLEM
Authorities in Quandary as TO What to
Do With Him-GetS Drunk When
Turned Loose.
IN JAIL MOST OF THE TIME
Records Show lie Has Spent Over Six
Months Of Present Year i'm Lookup
Asks for Forty Days.

AXel Nelson. a plain drunk, as regis
tered on the Rock Island police record,
is indeed a queer one and the police
are in a Quandary as to what to do with
him. During the present year Nelson
has spent more than a total Of six
months in the city and county jails
But in the brief periods of freedom
that he has had he always manages to
take on an overload of intoxicating
liquids. On his entreaties he was again
sent 70 the county Jail this morning
this time for 40 days.
So far this year Nelson has had one
To-day sentence in the county Jail, this
is his second 40-day term and he has
been in inuumerable periods Of 10 and
20 DAYS each.
The authorities have made an effort
TO have him taken in again at the Wa
tertown hospital. bUI there those in
charge insist that Nelson Is out on pro
baton and they refuse 10 have any
thing more TO do with him.
Just the other day Nelson was turn
ed loose after serving 20-day sen
tence and yesterday he was picked UP
by the police dead to the world"
No Hope, Say Police.
When arraigued today in police court
he plead guilty to drunkenness and ap-
pealed most aTdentIy 10 the court to
send him 10 the county Jail. The court
was agreeable and Nelson was sent to
the county institution to start on an
other 40-day sentence
But the case isn't ended there. for
the police feel that it will not be long
until Nelson will again be turned out
and it viii be the same story over
again

 It Is easy to work out a design in relief on an eggshell, whether the con tents of the egg have been removed or not. The first step is to draw with pencil the design or the lettering that you wish to appear on the egg. Make only an outline and the leading points of the design. Then melt small quantity of candle wax in a shallow tin and let 1t set little, but while 1t is still soft take it out of the tin and spread it over the design on the egg. If there is any difficulty in getting the wax to hold touch it here and there with the heated blade of penkn1fe.
 Take vinegar enough to cover tho egg completely and soak the egg in II for a period that may be half an hour or may be an hour and a half, accord ing to the strength of the vinegar. At the end of that period take the egg out and peel off the wax. The design will then stand up in relief against the rest of the shell, for the acid or the vinegar will have eaten away the uncovered part and left untouched only that part which the wax protected.- Youths Companion.

New Foundlanders Lose
 Millions in Oil Trade

St. Johns. N. F., Aug. -s-New Foundland dealers in cod liver oil esti- mate that they must face loss of about a million dollars as a result of changed conditions in the market this year. When Germany last year pur- chased the Norwegian output of this product, the price of New Foundland oil ran up from 50 cents to $2.50 a gallon. Expecting big profits this season, a large number of persons en- tered the business in this colony.
 Their hopes were dashed when the British and French governments suc- ceeded in obtaining this years Nor wegian output forcing a 50 per cent cut in market prices. As the dealers bought the raw material at high cost, they must stand a heavy loss.
 Business interests of the colony also will suffer from the fact that the cod fisheries along the Labrador coast and the northeast seaboard of New Found land this year have yielded one of the smallest catches on record.

WAR IN TRIP0LI

- That the war has been carried to Tripoli, where the Germans and Turks have supplied arms and ammunition by recent reports. Tripolitania was wrested by Italy from the Turks five years ago, but the Italian occupation country. In the interior the warlike tribesmen, who had for generations successfully resisted Turkish oppres- sion, were not inclined to submit to new master, even if comparatively be- nevolent. Slowly but surely the Ital-- ians were extending their control. but when Italy entered the war the Ger mans and Turks combined to provide aid and comfort to the Moslem war riors, hoping thus to keep a consider able Italian force occupied in Africa. It is said that Austrian and Turkish submarines have kept the tribesmen constantly supplied with guns and am intuition. The Arab rebels against Italian authority have no more love for the Turks and Teutons than they have for the Italians, but they are wisely playing both ends against the middle" and serving their purposes by pretending friendship which has no real existence. Ever since occupying Tripoi the Italians have been kept busy dispatching punitive expeditions against the rebels. but. while the clashes usually result in victory for the Italians, the latter have for the most part been unable to hold the ad- vanced positions they have gained. In the end Italy may be as successful in subjugating Tripoli as France has been in Algeria, but in the meantime Vic tor Emmanuers new subjects are giv- ing him much trouble.

Paris, Aug. 9-The dramatic death of the commander of the Italian troops that stormed the Austrian sec ond line trenches on Monte San Michele is described in despatch to the Petit Parisian from its correspond ent on the Italian front. The despatch says:
 '"The enemy offered their most in- tense resistance of the second line trenches in Monte San Michele. Our men dashed forward at a run to find one trench still protected by wire entanslements. The commander of the attacking battalion said:
 "'Boys, we've got to pass Taking a hatchet he cut a passage through the wire calmly and deliberately. Just as he completed his task he fell into the arms of the soldiers, shot through the heart. But the trench had been made and the Italians swarmed through into the Austrian lines"

 The list of American firms affected by the order was not forwarded by the ambassador, but press reports from abroad stated it does not greatly en- large the British blacklist
