Eat slowly, masticate your
food thoroughly, abstain from
meat for a few days and in most
cases the sour stomach will dis
appear. If it does not, take one
OF Chamberlain's Tablets imme-

are most likely to cause sour

best to cut them out.

French Orphans Want Letters.

d A great deal is said about the army
living on mail' and the necessity of
writing often, especially to the boys
overseas, but it seems that there are
others somewhere in France" who
look anxiously for letters from Amer
hca. The little French children look
eagerly for letter from their god
parents in America. A letter received
by Madame A. M. Borglum says:
WEvery child that is old enough to
know of their 'camarades' in America
asks do you think my camarade will
answer my letter? | have written
him but he has not answered me-
Their mothers tell me that these small
tots watch the mail eagerly for an
answer, which in most cases never
comes. They have so little to look for
ward to in their daily lives that their
mothers have been weaving stories
about their fairy godmothers in
America, and also, as one mother
told me, to help keep from grieving
about their fathers they try to keep
their little minds interested in their
unknown beuefactor. A letter to one
of these little children gives them as
great thrill as a letter from Santa
Claus would give to our children. One
little girl aged 10 has even been try
ing to learn English from a man who
Nives in the same apartment house
with her, so that she can read the let
ter when it comes. 1t is quite easy
for all the adopted children to get a
friend who speaks English to read it
to them. They ask me to write that
to America, too"

Handsome Service Flags Wave.

Service flags everywhere meet the
visitors eye as he journeys about
New York these days. They futter
rom the huge Office buildings, they
wave triumphantly from the beautiful
homes along Riverside Drive, and
many of the poorer homes bear the
insignia which shows to the world
that some loved one is in the service
of his country.
But few of these flags have been
seen in Omaha as yet and those
which are exhibited are for the most
part paper ones. In the metropolis,
however, the most gorgeous red satin
ones are seen and with the huge
white stars make beautiful flag.
eThe New York women have almost
abandoned society as they have in
Omaha, Miss Nanette Murphy states,
Who has recently returned from the
1G9st. Everything is war work, but
The girls there are not working any
harder than they are here. In fact,
Miss Murphy says that she feels that
the war spirit is more in evidence
here than in the east.
New York is full of tourists as be-
fore the war and the theaters and
cafes are crowded. It's just the same
old New York in that respect, while
here, dear me, we carefully hoard Our
stamps so that we can greet dear old
Douglas from the tenth row in the
balcony when he comes to town.
