PROPER FOOD FOR

The proper food for one man may be
all wrong for another. Every one
should adopt diet suitable to his age
and occupation. Those who have
weak stomachs need to be especially
careful and should eat slowly and
masticate their food thoroughly. 1t is
also important that they keep their
bowels regular When they become
constipated or when they feel dull and
stupid after eating, they should take
Chamberlain's Tablets to strengthen
the stomach and move the bowels.
They are easy to take and pleasant in
effect. -

Mrs. Esther Mullinix La Ferry died

and the remains were inferred in the
Frost graveyard here Wednesday after
noon attended by numerous relatives
and friends. The deceased was 2t
years OF age and leaves husband and
little girl 2 1-2 years of age. The
direct cause of death was leakage OF
the heart from which she had been a
sufferer for several years.
A telegram was received here Tues
day of last week by J. j. Walker noti-
flying him of her death and asking that
burial arrangements be perfected and
that the hody would arrive that day.
Contrary to expectations the body did
not reach here until the morning train,
Wednesday. The funeral was held in
the M. e. church and the sermon was
preached by Judge e. E. Snodgrass
and Rev. w. e. Martin. Immediately
following the funeral, which was at
tended by numerous old friends of the

OF the sacrificing of American lives by

There is talk of armlng American
vessels against submarine attacks ana
application has been made to the goy-

seems the guns are likely to be fur

merchant vessels will most surely be
sunk by Germany if caught within the
war zone.
Taking those things into considera-

strong and growing sentiment. espes-

is not at all probable, there IS every

Germany has proposed to discuss the
submarine matter with the United

situation with the allies. President
