Bilious Attacks.

You wonder what upset your stom-
ach. Never felt better in your life
yesterday-row you have a bad bill
ious attack. Cure that first then look
for the cause. Keep quiet, abstain
from food for one day, take three
of Chamberlain's Tablets. Drink
plenty of water. This will clean the
fermenting food and bile out of your
stomach, tone up your liver and move
your bowels. You will soon be all
right again. If you have these bill
ious attacks at irregular intervals,
abstain from coffee and red meats
and you may avoid them.-adv.

CHRISTMAS PLANS
BEING ARRAAGED
BY THE RED CROSS

The American Red Cross with its
three million members has just COM
pleted plans for the Christmas Cheer
of every soldier and sailor in the Ma
tional Service. Many of the men
who will be in the environments and
trenches this year will be spending
their first Christmas away from
home. None will be forgotten.
Red Cross Chapters nearest the
80 Army Camps and Cantonmenrs
will probably arrange in their towns,
community Christmas trees with
carols, pageants and holiday movies
to which the 100000 men in training
will be invited.
Arrangement of the details Of the
Christmas celebration for our men in
France is being made, but the Red
Cross will see to it that every soldier
has his Christmas package with its
message of goodwill from the women
on the home side of the Atlantic
There will be surprises in every
package, but all of them are likely
to contain writing paper, pipes, to-
bacco, cigars and cigarettes, unbreak-
able mirrors, puzzles, dominoes, hand
kerchiefs and playing cards.
Many of the chapters are already
at work finishing their Christmas al
lotments of comfort bags. Most of
them are made of khakai and are fur
nished with extra pairs of wooden
socks, housewives with needles, pins,
thread and buttons. Detailed sug-
gestions of how to wran these Christ
mas packages for shipping will be is.
| sued by the Red Cross The Red
, Cross will also welcome the co-opera-
ton of anyone desiring to have a
part in sending Christmas Cheer tc
the men in training or at the front
Some people will want to give money
envelopes and paper, safety razors
extra soap, spoons and knives, Some
to buy articles, bags, mouth organs
will want to have personal part il
tying up the packages. Children
will be asked to help with the pack
age making
The gifts will be bought from con
tributions especially given for tn
Christmas greeting. TIE Red eros
