They are manly men, they are,
Kind hearted and true.
Always doing their duty. they are,

SOMEWHERE IN AMERICA"
 IS THE POPULAR PHRASE

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 7.-The phrase somewhere in America" is being given considerable strength through orders regarding railroad tickets for soldiers and sailors which were recently put into effect here. The tickets read destination with held" in order that they will furnish no information of troop destinations if they should happen to fall into improper hands.
 Hereafter all troop movements from coast to coast or intermediate points will be effected through the use of such tickets; according to advices re- ceived from the war department by the western department of the army here.

GREATER DEMAND FUR BANKERS
 AT TER WAR
(By Associated Press)

LONDON, Dec. 7.-Sir Richard Vas sar Smith in a recent address before the institute of bankers, said one feature of recent banking develop ments had been the greater and more immediate control which leading banks had assumed over financial re- lations with other countries by the creation of foreign departments and the opening of branches in foreign countries. This development of inter- national banking meant a demand for young Englishmen with knowledge of foreign languages, foreign exchange and the commercial and financial conditions in other countries.
 Preliminary examinations of the in- stitute for the coming year had been opened to women
 
 Encouragement with regard to the future. Reconstruction after the war would be long and arduous but it must be undertaken by removing all friction from the machinery of prog ress and by approaching the problem in a spirit of good will.
 He stated that the first and most serious question in his opinion was the relations of capital and labor, as it was only by harmonious working between these two forces that the required result could be obtained.
 He urged strongly the necessity of better organization, after the war.

S|NN FE|NERS ARE. D|SLOYAL TO
 FLAG

DUBLIN, Dec. John Dillon, Ma tionalist member of the house of com mons, addressing the Ancient Order of Hibernians in Dublin recently con demned the Sim Feiners for "alienat- ing the sympathy of the United States from the Irish cause" The friend ship and support of the Americans in Ireland's struggle for liberty was their greatest asset, he said. But what was happening in America today fill ed him with horror. Friends and supporters of the Sim Feiners in Ire land, he said, were now charged with treason to the flag, and with entering into a combination with Germany to defeat America. He was deeply con- vinced that the Irish race in America would take steps immediately to dis associate the name of Ireland from such conduct.
 Nobody, said Mir. Dillon, could ex, aggerate the fatal character of the policy of undertaking to make Ire land a republic, and, as first suep in that career, quarreling with the United States and turning on the flag which was the dearest to the Irish race of any flag in the world.

PILES DISAPPEAR.

Pimples, sores and boiLs usually re-
suit from toxins, poisons and impurl-
ties which are generated in the bowels
and then absorbed into the blood
through the very ducts which should
absorb only nourishment 10 sustain the
body.
1t is the function of the kidneys to
filter impurities from the blood and
east them out in the form OF urine but
in many instances the bowels create
more toxins and impurities than the
Kidneys can eliminate, then the blood
uses the skin pores as the next best
means OF getting rid Of these impurities
which often break out all over the skin
in the form of pimples.
The Surest way to clear the skin of
these eruptions. says a noted authority,
is to get from any pharmacy about
four ounces Of Jad Salts and take a
tablespoonful in a glass of hot water
each morning before breakfast for one
week. This will prevent the formation
of toxins in the bowels. 1t also stimu-
fates the kidneys to normal activity
thus coaxing them to filter the blood
Of impurities and clearing the skin OF
pimples.
Jad Salts is inexpensive. harmless and
is made from the acid Of grapes and
lemon juice. combined with lithia Here
you have pleasant, effervescent drink
which usually makes pimples disap-
pear; cleanses the blood and is excel.
lent for the kidneys as well.

A Free Prescription You Can Ha,
Filled and Use at Home

Philadelphia, Pa. Victims of eye strain
and other eye weaknesses. and those who
wear glasses, will be glad to know that
according to DR.. Lewis there is real hope
and help for them. Many whose eyes
were failing say they have had their eyes
restored by this remarkable prescription
and many who once wore glasses say
they have thrown them away. One man
says, after using it: II was almost blind
Could not see to read at all. Now / can
read everything without my glasses and
my eyes do not hurt any more. At night
they would pain dreadfully. Now they
feel fine all the time. 1t was like q
miracle to me- A lady who used it says ::
"The atmosphere seemed hazy with or
without glasses, but after using this pre-
scription for Is days everything seems
clear. I can read even fine print with
out glasses" Another who used it says
II was bothered with eye strain caused
by overworked, tired eyes which induced
fierce headaches. have worn glasses for
several years both for distance and work.
and without them I could not read my
own name on an envelope or the type
writing on the machine before me. ] can
do both now and have discarded my long
distance glasses altogether. l can count
the huttering leaves on the trees across
he street now, which for several years
have looked like a dim green blur to me.

done for me-"
It is believed that thousands who wear
classes can now discard them in reason
