The newspapers Of the country are
practically of one mind regarding q
continuance of the ordinary activities
of the industrial and commercial
world. For a time there was a ten
dency to upset ordinary business, but
1t IS now accepted as an important
development of the war situation that
those who are not called into the
armed service of the nation shall go
right on pushing the varied activities
to the limit, to the end that the pros
perity of the people may be assured
through steady employment of all who
are able and want to work.

AMERICA AND THE WAR

n MONG many intelligent people
Athere is still considerable doubt.
which is surprising under the cir
cumstances, regarding the purpose
OF our entry into the world conflict.
Discussing this subject, the Dry
Goods Economist" says if we are to
fight in this war to a successful
finish we must enter heart and soul
into the conflict. This journal points
out that we have the financial and
Industrial resources, we will have
the munitions and the ships, and we
will have the men; but not. until
we have the spirit as nation can
we be certain of the right kind of
results. Further it says:
This spirit will be created. our
citizens will join unanimously in
consecrating themselves to their
country only when all of us rea-
lize what this country is lighting
for. 1t is essential, therefore, that
every American man and woman
look deeply into this question and
ind the right answer. We are not
going into this war for revenge.
American lives, including those OF
women and little children, do call
Tor vengeance. But not revenge,
not even punishment is our aim.
We are not in the war for aggran-
dizement. for increase of territory,
for money indemnities. We are
not in it even for friendship. not
even from sympathy with the op-
pressed-deep as is our feeling for
Belgium. for Serbia and for Ar
menia.
No, wholly free from sordldness
as our motives are. we can't strike
ourselves on the chest and plume
ourselves on disinterested mo-
we have to be. As President Will
SON has said, God help us. We can
do no other"
We are in the war for self-pro-
by distance. by difficulties of
transportation. The ocean to-day
is but a span. America and Eu-
rope are next door neighbors.
Even the partywau between the
two dwellings, has been cemoved.

will be "next"-aud what chance
would we have against such
victor? We, too, therefore. are
is the spec:er OF ruined towns, de-
yastated farms. flooded mines,
burned homes and murdered in
habitants. We, too. can almost
scent the charred flesh, see the
emaciated forms and hear the
shrek of fear and of agony. That
is to say, the more thoughtful, the
more imaginative of us can. But
a whole lot of our citizens can't.
These things, though known. have
they are. and in spite of their
awful possibilities. they simply
don't get over-as those they pass
by would say.

Sour Stomach

This is mild form of indigestion. 1t
is usually brought on by eating too rapid
ly or too much, or of food not suited to
your digestive organs. If you will eat
slowly, masticate your food thoroughly,
eat but little meat and none at all for
supper, you will more than likely avoid
the sour stomach without taking any
whatever. When you have
sour stomach take one of Chamberlain
Tablets to aid digestion.
