Whoa Webster!

Kiss-This word is a noun, but II y
usually used as a conjunction. II y
never declined and is more common
than proper. 1t is not very singular
in that 1t is generally used In tne
plural. 1t agrees with me.-Lehisn

The young lady across the way says
all the big corporations are represent

that nobody seems to consider 1t worth
while to take UP the case OF the poor
consumer and see that his interests
are properly exploited.

An Old Mans Stomach.

AS we grow older and less active,
less and less food is required to meet
the demands of our bodies. II too
much is habitually taken, the stomach
will rebel. When a man reaches the
advanced age of IS or 80, 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 Chamber
lain's Tablets to correct the disorder.
These tablets do not contain pepsin,
but strengthen the stomach and en-
able it to perform its functions nat
urally. They also cause gentle
movement of the bowels. For sale by
A. C. Philip.

In this endeaTor the INVADER

Nothing as yet has been heard

All the enemy forces which last
week crossed the river Piaye near
Zenson have been swept clear OF
the western bank in brilliant at.
tack by the Italians. Large num-
bers OF them met death along the
eastern bank or we're drowned In
their buried attempt to ford the
stream. Others were bayonetted
or forced to surrender, and 1t was
only. a small portion OF the ortE:|

their way to safety.
