A Household Necessity

Have a Place in Every
HOmQ

Constipation, or inaction OF the
bowels, a condition that nearly every
one experiences with more or less
frequency, Is the direct cause OF much
disease When the bowels become
ciogged with refuse from the stom-
ach. foul gases and poisons are gen
Grated, and unless the congestion is
quickly relieved tho system becomes
weakened and most susceptible to at
tack.
Various remedies to relieve consti-
patton are prescribed, but many OF
these contain cathartic or purgative
agents that are harsh and violent in
their action and shock the system
The most effective remedy Is the
combination OF simple laxative herbs
with pepsin that Is sold in drug stores
under the name OF DR.. Caldwell's Sy-
rup Pepsin

Brandywine, w. Va, who has repre-
sented his district in the State Legis-
lature for six years. writes that he
uses DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin and
finds It a splendid laxative, easy tC
take and mild, yet positive, in its ac-
ton. and that il should be in every
: household for use when needed.
DR.. Caldwells Syrup Pepsin is solo
by druggists in all parts Of the Unite

LITTLE GREY LADY"
 AT THE RUSSWIN

The Little Grey Lady" one of Charming Pollock's popular plays has Gtven the public an agreeable sur- prise in the cleverness of the plot and also on the manner in which the Representations are carried out by the Walter Naylor Players. The set ting of the play centers mostly about the treasury in Washington. D. C.. and employees of the treasury. The play not only shows a pretty TO- nance but shows the true love and heroism of woman. There Is real comedy mingled in here and there and at certain intervals there are many thrilling incidents. Miss Perry as 'The Lady in Grey" plays her part exceptionally we'll and shows how heroic a woman can be. MT. Wallace as Perry Carlyle is very adapt as are Messrs. Murphy, Quin and Beecroft. Misses Antel and Dow are also seen to good advantage and Miss Dow as B character lady is adding more to her reputation at every performance.

Batocki Admits Shortage.

London, March 2S.-Adolph Won Batocki, president of the German food regulation board, in Reichstag com- mittee admitted that the compensa- tions for the reduction of the bread ration were not sufficient but declared no other solution was possible, ac- cording to a Central News despatch from Amsterdam.
 Despite all the experience the food administration authorities had gained and the knowledge of conditions they had acquired. the supplies. continued Herr Von Baticki. had been too highly estimated but the seriousness of the situation did not justify either sharp criticism or utopian proposals.
 The supplies of pigs were not suffi- cient to permit the slaughter of the number which strict necessity required the food dictator is quoted as declar- ing. and therefore the reserves of cat tie would have to be drawn upon con- siderably. Increased. production was impossible. owing to the lack of labor. leaving out of consideration the enor- nous dificulties of transportation. Tn any case. the speaker added. 1t was impossible to live without potatoes and bread. and the agriculturalists must be made fully aware of their obliea- tions.

GERMANY ALARMED
 BY CENSUS ON FOOD
Harvest Of 1916 Little Better
 Than That of 1915
Yield of Bread Grains i'm 1916 Only
 Slightly Moro Than in f0fk

Copenhagen, via London, March 2S. The result of the recent stock-taking of the grain. potatoes and other food stuffs on hand in Germany was so un- favorable as to cause general appre- hension, according to the Berlin vor- waerts, which quotes remarks made before the Reichstag committee on food by the socialistic deputy Ebert Tho vorwaerts is the only Berlin pa per which carries an account of the proceedings before the committee.
 According to this report, Deputy Ebert said that an inventory showed that the 1916 yield of bread grains was only 600.00O tons or fifteen pounds per capita. above the 1915 harvest, a harvest which had been regarded as almost calamitous. Earlier reports on the 1916 harvest had de- scribed it as good and a rationing scheme was based on any estimated excess of 100000 tons. The reduc- tion in the visible supply by one half explains the cut in the bread ration, which was announced by the author tiles as soon as the results of the cen- sus were in hand.
 Deputy Ebert added that similar deficiency apparently existed in other food products and declared that part of the missing foodstuffs undoubtedly had vanished down the throats of cat tie and hogs. which were fed on H. legal fodder by the farmer. He de- manded that everything imported from Rumania be reserved for human consumption.

SIDE TALKS
The Rich Mans Burden
BY RUTH CAMERON

I read a splendid thing not long ago that thrilled me through and through.
 It was this. A group of wealthy people had planned to build them selves beautiful clubhouse. They had gotten together a million dollars, believe it was. for this purpose. And then they decided, instead of building that beautiful clubhouse, to give the money to the war sufferers.
 That meant something. That cost them something. And I think 1t will count them something, don't you? Why It Is Hard For Rich People to
 Be Unselfsl.
 1t is so hard for rich people to be truly unselfish. because it Is so easy for them to be generous without be- ing unselfsh at all.
 They can give sums that will ac- complish tremendous amounts of good. that will make the papers call them philanthropists, that will bring them infinite gratitude, without real ly giving up anything.
 Who, when he has been called upon to give and felt the wrench of giving money that he really needed else- where. has not wished he were rich 60 that he could give without feeling it.
 It's Natural Wish But An Unwise 5sS. One.
 It Is a natural wish of selfish, ease loving humanity. But 1t is a wish whose fulnllment means soul-paraly- sis
 Isn't that one of the big reasons why 1t is harder for camel to go through the eye of . needle than,- you know the rest,-because 1t Is 50 easy for the rach man to give with out really giving.
 Understand me. do not mean to say that all rich men are that way. These men and women were not.
 Sor was Daniel Ford the Massa- chussetts philanthropist, who after giving away the larger part of his fortune and living in the utmost except for one luxury, his beloved steam-yacht, in which he came to his work every day, finally
