A MOTHERS. LOVE

Life does not hold enough Of years
In which we can repay
A mothers love--so do your best
Before she goes away.
No truer words were even penned
In verse or sacred song; r
No sweeter thought was given birth
Amid the worldly throng. NY
No purer theme could be discussed
In mankind's vast domain, I !
And Heavens dream is far surpassed
By this true, sweet refrain.
Al mothers love, God bless the man
Who honors and revereS
The sacred memory of her
And speaks her name in tears.
No matter what our love has been
Mayhap so kind and sweet,
1t can not be what she has dreamed,
For it is not complete. \ 81
Is mother dead? Her dear face comes
In Visions TO our view;
An ever tender smile she gave
In happiness to you.
Her watchful care, her loving eye,
The prayers in childhood's hour,
Came back, and Oh! we love her now
But we have lost the flower.
Is she still with us in our home?
Can we still hear her voice
And feel the touch of her dear hand
That bids our soul rejoice?
Then happiness is ours.
The world can give no sweeter bliss,
There are no sweeter flowers.
Life does not hold enough Of years
In which we can repay
A mothers love-then do your part
Before she goes away.

Old Fashioned
Indigestion Remedy Cheap
est and Best
stops pain almost instantly
Or MONEY BACK

The remarkable popularity of the old
fashioned remedy for indigestion, dys-
pepsia, gastritis, sour stomach, etc,
which is so easily prepared at home by
mixing ~ ounces of Bisoma Carbon
ate with one ounce of Magnesia Car
Donate, is said by chemists TO be due
to the fact that a ~teaspoonful of this
mixture taken in a little hot water i'm
m~ediately after eating or whenever
pain is felt, instantly neutralizes the
acid, stops food fermentation and en-
ables the stomach to proceed with
painless normal digestion. Owing to
the almost invariable success Of this
remedy most druggists now keep it
put up ready for use under the name
of Bi-nesia and give with each bottle
a binding guarantee of satisfaction or
money back. OF course you can mix
the powder at home and get just as
good results. but if you want a guaran-
tee of satisfaction OF money back, be
sure to ask for Bi-nesia.

PEOPLE
WILL REFUSE TO PAY
HIGHER PRICES
Packers Admit That Limit In
Prices of Meat Is Now
Being Pressed

Chicago, Oct. 16.-The American pub
lie has reached the breaking point in
high meat prices-further large in
creases will mean a boycott.
This was frankly admitted today by
packers themselves, who are here at
tending the convention of the Ameri-
lean meat packers association.
The packers were practically unan-
imous in favor of lower prices-despite
the fact they claim they are now OPP
Grating several departments of their
industry at a loss.
Clover prices mean a larger con-
sumption and the packing industry is
founded on the principle of volume, -
was the way Edward La Barth of Chr
cago put it. "People will quit eating
meats and take to other foods if they
are asked to pay much more than the
present prices.' =
The packing industry will welcome
government regulation through the Ii
censing system because lower prices
are virtually assured, packers attend
ing the convention said.
Price fixing by the government will
be regulated by the market prices of
corn and wheat and other feeds, pack
ers believe. Lower corn and other
feeds mean a reduction in the prices
of meats. Today market quotations
would be considered fair prices under
government regulation, should cost of
production remain the SAME, they as
sert.
A one hundred per cent increase in
the output of canned meats is predict
ed as q result of the war demand.
Resolutions urging cooperation with
the bureau of animal industry, to stop
wastage of animals, and with the fed
eral food commission for conservation
Of the supply of meats, were introduce
ed today.
There is a probability of hogs sell
ing as low as $40 during the coming
winter, making a reduction Of about
fifty per cent, according to Patrick
Cudahy, Milwaukee packer.

package addressed to her, sent in care
of the consulate. Summers looked it
up. The package was addressed
'fAmerican consulate" and down in
one corner, in small letters, was the
woman Is name. Summers declined to
deliver it and opened the package
himself. He found it contained in
formation of great value to the enemy.
Other parcels addressed to the same
woman and from various interior Rus
sian points were thereupon opened. The
consul general himself investigated and
discovered his alleged German-Amer-
lean clerks were receiving mail from
all over Russia addressed "Ameriean
consulate" but that this mail never
reached his W desk.
Summers discharged fifteen German
clerks at one swoop.

Moscow, Oct. 16.-(By mail)-. All
the time American consuls in Russia
were caring for German and Austrian
prisoners internment camps the Ger
mans were using the American consular
service as a means of spy activity.
It was necessary in all eonsulates to
have clerks and attaches who spoke
German. Most of these were allegedly
German-Americans, but disclosures at
Moscow c~onsulates eighteen months ago
proved beyond doubt that most of these
individuals were actively working in
the German cause.
