MAXIMUM OF REGISTRATIONS
THROUGHOUT UNITED STATES

Although the returns will not be
complete for a number of days it is
confidently expected that the total
registrations in the United States on
Tuesday will equal, if not exceed, the
anticipated ten million. In every City
and hamlet in the whole Nation the
registration booths were open and &C
tivity prevailed. No reports OF opposi'
ton to the enforced war registration
have been given out.
Separate booths for white and col
ored were open in Welsh from ZOO a.
m. to 900 p. M, as scheduled. The
spirit that prevails here was clearly
illustrated by the fact that there was a
big rush for both the colored and the
white booths when they first opened.
Patriotic men clamored to be the first
to register their patri otiSm for their
country. The bulk of the registrations
for this precinct were completed before
the noon hour.
The total registrations in this pre-
Cinct were, Ill whites and IS colored
2O7 in all. In Jefferson Davis parish
1915 whites and colored registered.
1t will be some time before the gen
eral results will be known. No partia
reports will be transmitted either from
precincts or county officials to thu
state authorities, or by the latter t
the provost general. Instructions hav'
gone to all officials to make public onl,
figures for units which are complete
The returns will all be transmitted il
. units, the precincts reporting to tn
parish officials, the parishes to stat
officials, the reports to the nationa
headquarters will come from the forty
eight governors of the states of tn
union, and their compilation will n
S quire only the addition Of a few col
II umnS of figures.
Il The arrangement OF the machiner
d for the big registration was almo:

Bowel COMPLAINTS In India

In a lecture at one of the DeS Moines
Iowa, churches a missionary from
India told of going into the interior to
India, where he was taken sick, that
he had a bottle of Chamberlain's Collie,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy with
him and believed that it saved his life.
This remedy is used successfully in
India both as preventive and cure
for cholera. You may know from this
that it can be depended upon for the
milder forms of bowel complaint that
ccur in this country. Obtalnable
