LIVER DIDN'T ACT
DIGESTION WAS BAD
Says IS year Old Kentucky Lady, Who Tells How She Was Relieved
After Few Doses of Back-Draught

Meadorsville, Ky.-Mrs. Cynthia
Higginbotham, of this town, says: "At
my age, which is 65, the liver does
not act so well as when young. A few
years ago, my stomach was all out of
fix. I was constipated, my liver
didn't act. My digestion was bad, and
it took so little to upset me. My ap-
petite was gone. was very weak.
I decided 1 would give Black
Draught a thorough trial as I knew it

trouble: I began taking it. felt
better after a few doses. My appetite
improved and I became stronger. Ny

The Great Opportunity.

The war of the past thirty
months has stirred, as never be-
fore, the evil passions of men.
1t has bred prejudices and kim
died animosities that only new
preaching of the Golden Rule
and a new emphasis upon kind
ness, brotherliness, and human
ity can allay. Never was the
need of humane education so
great. The man who would put
a million dollars into the train
ing of the youth of this land in
the fundamental principles of
justice and kindness to every
living creature would deserve a
place in the Hall of Fame. To
give this humane education to a
child should be universally deem,
ed as vital as to teach him to
read.
With the ending of this war
the United States will doubtless
be IN a better condition than any
other nation to respond to the
needs of a suffering world. Our
institutions and the causes of
our successes will be more wide
ly studied than ever. Humane
education in every school would
be one of the noblest object les
sons to which the attention of
visitors from other lands could
be called.
Who will give the million?
With it we would agree to reach
every public school of the land.
Humane education means the
doom of war.

The Philosophy Of the French SOL
der.

Here is a statement of the
philosophic creed of the French
soldiers, or at least of one who
wrote it:
Of two things, one is certain:
Either you're moboIized or you're
not modified.
If you're not modified there's
no need to worry.
If you're modified, of two
things one is certain: Either
you're behind the lines or you're
on the front.
If you're behind the lines
there's no need to worry.
If you're on the front, of two
things one is certain: Either
you're resting in safe place or
you're exposed to danger.
If you're resting in a safe
place there's no need to worry.
If you're exposed to danger, of
two things one is certain: Eli
ther you're wounded or you're
not wounded.
If you're not wounded there's
no need to worry.
If you are wounded, of two
things one is certain: Either
you're wounded seriously OF
you're wounded slightly.
