Sir Herbert B. Ames, NJ. p, honorary
secretary of the Canadian Patriotic fund.
told an audience of more than 1000 per
sons who were guests of the Navy League
Of the United States at d. A. r. hall last
night how England had been able to Sc

with the women and the organizations
who bridge official red tape and the
difference between what the crown can
pay and what is necessary to maintain
the average family of the volunteer.
England payed Canadian volunteers
S35 a month";" he said. Many volunteers
go into the recruiting offices and will
ingly enlist when they find that the in
come Of the crown is supplemented by
regular contributions from the Canadian
national patriotic fund. Since the war be-
gan the province has raised more than
s21,ooo.ooo for relief work of this ma
ture."
He declared that not one family knew
suffering or want in Canada, and urged
that relief work OF this nature would be
the strongest aid to recruiting in this
country.

madam recruiting committee, described
how one province has furnished 5000 men
to the English navy. Rear Admiral
Samuel MCGOWAN, of the United States
navy. told how the Navy League and its
principles could be of inestimable value to
the country in the event of war.
He said that the wearing apparel and
other equipment which women could
fashion would bring happiness and COM

And here's a good tip.
The bell hops appeared as though the

Nevertheless each hop had his little
hopper and they were lots more grace
full together than either possibly could be
alone
Just leave 1t to the hellmen of Wash

This Simple Laxative
A Household Necessity
DR.. CALDwELL's SYRUP PEPsIN

EVERY HOME

Constipation, or inaction of the
bowels, a condition that nearly every
one experiences with more OF less
frequency, is the direct cause Of
much disease. When the bowels
become clogged with refuse from the
stomach, foul-gases and poisons are
generated. and unless the congestion
is quickly relieved the system be-
comes weakened and most suscept-
ible to attack
Various remedies to relieve consti-
patton are prescribed, but many OF
these contain cathartic or purgative
agents that shock the system. The
most effective laxative herbs with
pepsin that is sold In drug stores un-
der the name Of DIR. Caldwell's Syr-
up Pepsin.

ed his district in the State Legisla-
ture for six years, writes that he

finds it a splendid laxative. easy to
take and mild, yet positive. in its ac-
ton. and that it should be in every
household for use when needed

cents a bottle. 1t contains no opiate
