An Old Mans Stomach

AS we grow older and less active,
less and less food is required to meet
the demands of our bodies. If too
much is habitually taken, the stom-
ach will rebel. When a man reaches
the advanced age of 85 or 90, you
will find that he is a light eater.
Be as careful as you will, however,
you will occasionally eat more than
you should and will feel the need
of Chamberlain's Tablets to correct
the disorder. These tablets do not
contain pepsin, but strengthen the
stomach and enable it to perform
its functions naturally. They also
cause gentle movement of the
bowels.

TO CLASSIFY ALL MEN
SUBJECT TO ARMY SERVICE

Der 20, and under which classified
ton for order of service will begin
on December Is next includes all
registered men not in the service.
Supplies for the purpose have been
mailed to the governors of the vari-
Gus states and will be in the hands
of the draft boards as soon as posi-
BILE. The following statement of the
application of. these regulations is
from the Official Bulletin Of the
government and therefore can be re-
lied on for information:
Repeal All Preceding Regulations.
The new regulations not only re-
peal all preceding regulations, but
cancel all exemptions and discharges
which have been granted by local
boards under the present system.
This will restore every man to his
original status, and the local boards
will lsend a QUESTIONABLE to every
man who is not in the service.
The completion by the registrant
of this document is the first great
stage of the new system, and the
difficulties which will attend it are
fully recognized by the Provost Mar
shall General, who has begun the
mobilization Of the legal talent of
the country to enable everyone who
seeks it to receive aid in the prepara-
ton of his QUESTIONABLE.
System of Distribution.
Under the new regulations the
local boards will send out 5 per
cent of their questionnaires eacn
day for a period covering 20 days.
This method of distribution will al
low the local boards, with the aid
of their legal advisory boards and
other volunteers, to instruct, com
plete, and file each days question
naire without the confusion and con-
gestion which would attend the effort
to require a larger number.
The new regulations also contain
a complete set of the forms to be
used by the local boards, every form
being printed in full, and many are
completed to serve as models.
A local board will actually use 10
of the proposed forms. Examina-
ton shows that most of these are
postcard forms and require but a
word or two to complete them, thus
simplifying to a large degree the
work of the present system, which
requires approximately $50 compli-
Gated forms.
The completion of the QUESTIONABLE
by the registrant will not require
as much work as did the simple claim
for dependency under the old system.
In it the registrant must make a full
statement of all the facts upon which
he will rely to secure deferred CLASH
fication and upon which the local
board will be expected to fix his
class.
Answers Require Few Words.
If the registrant is a farmer or
skilled in any enterprise which is
necessary to the public interest, he
must state the facts in minute de-
tail; but so skillfully has the CUES
tionnaire been designed that every
answer is anticipated and requires
only in rare instances more than
two or three words.
The new regulations are so ar
ranged that information may be
found almost at a glance. A com

ment of an officer of the Reserve
Corps of the United States Army
as an assistant to the adjutant gen
also be the distributing officer, and
the final affairs of the selective
service system will thus be brought
into intimate touch with the Provost
Marshal Generals office in Washing
ton. Among his other duties will
be that of keeping all accounts closed
in order that the department at
Washington may have at any time
statement of the obligations and
estimate of future expenses for each
state.
Under part A, which deals with
classification rules and principles,
there are clearly laid down the vari-
Gus rules which will govern district
and local boards in the classified
ton of registrants, while the reasons
for and effect of classification are
clearly set out as follows:
"The military needs Of the nation
require that there be provided in
every community a list of names
of men who shall be ready to be
called into service at any time. The
economic needs of the nation, while
deferring to the paramount mill
'tary necessity, require that men
whose removal would interfere with
the civic, family, industrial, and agri
cultural institutions of the nation
shall be taken in the order in which
they best can be spared. For this
reason the names of all men liable
to selection shall be arranged in
five classes in the inverse order of
their Importance to the economic in
terests of the nation, which include
the maintenance Of necessary indus
try and agriculture and the support
of dependents.
"The group of registrants within
the jurisdiction of each board is
taken as the unit to be classified.
Within each class the order of liza
bility is determined by the drawing,
which has hitherto assigned to every
man an order of availability for
military service relative to all men
not permanently or temporarily OK
empted or discharged. The effect of
classification in class / is to render
every man so classified presently
liable to military service in the order
determined by the national drawing
The effect of classification in class
is to grant temporary discharge
from draft, effective until class
in the jurisdiction of the same local
board is exhausted. The effect of
classification in class is to grant
temporary discharge from draft,
effective until classes 1 and 2, in
the jurisdiction of the same local
board, are exhausted; and similarly,
class A becomes liable only when
classes 1, 2 and are exhausted. The
effect of classification in class is
to grant exemption or discharge from
draft. The term deferred classifi-
cation aS used in these regulations,
is equivalent to the term temporary
discharge"
The volume Of new regulations
contains within its two covers every
possible source of information which
local and district boards should have
readily accessible. The master list
of the drawing is unfinished in f111l

LOOK BEFORE YOU LEAP


Nortons, Ore, Sep. II, 1917.
Editor of the Leader,
Toledo, Ore.
Dear SIR
A great deal is being said and
written in regard to the propo-
sition to bond the county for
100000 for the purpose of
building 100 miles OF good roau.
1t is a matter that should be
well considered by every taxpay-
er in the county. We all want
good roads and if 100000
would build 120 miles Of good
permanent road We would all
gladly vote for it. But, will it
do so? The most of the roads
would have to be built of plank,
because of the lack of good rock
for road building along the lines
of the proposed roads. At the
present high price of labor the
) lumber could not be sawed and
delivered along road for less
than SIS per M. even if it were
sawed by the County from the
road right-of-way as Mr.. Jones
. proposes, (when he knows there
. is no timber on nine-tenths OF
the right of way.) | would like
every man to figure it out. The
plank ought to be not less thar
three inches thick, and they
! ought to have something under

Lincoln Co. Leader,
Toledo, Greg.
Dear Editor:
No doubt you were disgusted
man, when you were setting the
tvpe, for A. B. Clark's mislead-
ing article in your last publica-
ton. He started out with road
bonds and ended up in a swamp
trying to get a look at that stone
wall between Elk City and Tole-
do. Now if you will take the
time and look at the list OF
names from Elk City, that are
in favor of road bonds, you will
see at once that Mr.. Clark does
MT represent the tax payers
wishes, it is just TO be a knocker
pure and simple, doesn't want
people from the outside world
to come through our little town,
they might leave a dollar, IN
stead of spending it some where
else. And as to the number OF
teams between Elk and Mill
Creek, guess he came nearer to
this than any thing else, he said
one and there is three. Also Mr.
CLARK claims it is farther by way
of Mill Creek to Toledo than b!
, way of Simpson Creek. We arr
under the impression that it,
sixteen miles by way of Simp
, son Creek and less than tel
; miles down the river. Perhap
. Mr.. Derrick could inform us VIII
/ is nearer the correct distance
