Thrilling War Movies for A. B. F. B. Fete at
 the Jefferson Theatre

Probably the most remarkable moving pictures of the European war which have been shown in Birmingham will be ex- hibited at the A. B. F. B. funds elab- crate entertainment Monday, March 19. They were obtained from France by George A. Kessler, of the executive com mittee of the A. B. F. B. permanent blind relief war fund, at his own ex- pense, and have been donated by him to the fund. They have been author ized by the French censor and were ob- tained by special permission of the va rious French authorities.
 The first scene represents actual fight ing in the trenches, in which the sol diers become blinded. The blinded sol- diers are next represented being carried from one field hospital to another. They are finally taken to the new, especially established hospital for the blind al Reuil- ly, in the outskirts of Paris.
 The blinded men are then shown as they are being trained for the different profess sions which, in spite of their loss of sight, they are capable of mastering, such as typewriting, telegraphy, massage, boot making, with the aid of the present wide spread movement for the blind. The A. B. F. B. fund has been organized to give financial support to this movement and assure permanent, practical. paying employment to the blind after the train Ing has been acquired.
 Among few of the many dramatic in dividuals are: Bomb explosion in the trenches, ambulance carrying the wound ad the tho military hnQpitql doctors visit, blinded departure for Frances national hospital. "Quinze- Vingts," walking exercise at "Quinze- Vingts,'' convalescent home at Reuilly. a branch esta blshment of the "Quinze- vingts," re-education of the blind, Mon sieur Vallory Radot, C reader of the movement for the blind in France and son-in-law of the famous French physi- elan and scientist.

WHAT WOMEN IN THEIR
"FORTIES" NEED

Many women approach the critical
changing period of their lives that
comes between the ages of forty and
fifty. unmindful of its tremendous i'm
portance to their future health and
happiness. Not understanding the
functional changes taking place In
their bodies, they work beyond their
strength, often break down, become
nervous wrecks, their bodies suffer-
ing with fatigue and their weakened
nerves trembling at every step. Often
in their weakened condition capillary
hemorrhage becomes excessive, this
added drain compelling them to take
to their beds from nervous exhaus-
ton.
What these women need is some
thing that will instantly relieve the
pressure on the overworked nerve CEN
tiers and give them the vitality to
stand up under the grueling strain.
Wonderfully effective results are CIV
en- in such conditions by the simple
use Of Mango Nerve Tablets, a skillful
combination of six of the best nerve
vitalizing elements known to modern
chemistry. These little tablets con-
tain no dangerous habit-forming drugs

ton but they quickly build up and
strengthen the entire nervous system

vitalized nerve cells, In artificial form.
the very necessary elements of which
nature is depriving them.
Thousands of women could testify
that Mango Nerve Tablets strengthen
the faded nerves, revive the tired brain
and put the energy and courage into
your body that enables you to stend
up under the unusual strain of the
changing period. Margo has to do
these things or it costs you nothing as
