PROCLAMATION.
STATE OF LOUISIANA
EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT
Baton Rouge, La.
To the People ofthe State Of Louisiana:
Men are needed for productive labor.
They must be reserved for such work
and not-be drawn therefrom to do nom
essentials. If you will show due con-
sideration, your dealer will be able to
supply men for productive fields in
stead of withdrawing them therefrom
The needless delivery work that you
put upon stores means an unnecessary
drain on the country's man power
desire to point out that every shop
per can be patriotic in five ways:
By carrying parcels home whenever
possible.
Accept without complaint less prompt
deliveries in war time.
Do not demand special deliveries.
Avoid having goods sent home unless
you are sure you are going to keep
them.
Bring back to the store such goods
as are portable when return cannos be
avoided.
The stores will give you the best SER
vice in their power, but both the stores
and the public must do their duty to
the country.
As Governor of the State of Louis
lana. / ask the public to do these things
for the welfare of our country during
the war.
In faith whereof, l have hereunto
set my hand and caused to be affixed
the seal of the Executive Department,
at the Capitol, in the City of Baton
Rouge, this fourth day of October, ir
the year of our Lord one thousand nine
| hundred and seventeen.
R. G. PLEASANT.
By the Governor:
JOHN MARSHALL,
Secretary to the Governor.

Sour Stomach.

Eat slowly, masticate your food thor
ougnly, abstain from meat for few
DAYS and in most cases the sour stomach
will disappear. If it does not, take
one of Chamberlain Tablets immedi-
etely after supper. Red meats are
most likely to cause sour stomach and
you may find it best to cut them out.

KING KELLY'S
GREATEST PLAY

The greatest play, from the stand
point Of quick thinking. that have
ever seen.1 says John McGraw Of the
Giants, was one made by Mike Kelly
years ago. It illustrates why they
called Mike the King.
Kelly was catching In q close game.
In the ninth inning his team led b. D
run when the other side stepped 10
bat. Two men were retired easily.
Then base on balls and an error
put the tying run on second and the
winning run On first.
The next batter shot a hot single
to right, and the man on second tore
for the plate The outfieIder's throw
came in true enough, but to Kelly's
left, ON his gloved hand. As the ball
was in the air Mike saw that he had
TO take it with his left hand. II he
used two hands he would miss the
runner Yet taking the ball with the
glove and swinging into q sliding man,
he ran the chance Of dropping the
throw. - Il
Kelly figured this out quicker than
It takes me to tell II. He flung off
his glove, caught the ball with his
barred left hand and touched the run.
