Physician

A wise old doctor once gave this advice to
a class of young physicians: 81 am afraid our
barbarous method of writing prescriptions in
what is sometimes called Latin with the old
astrological sign of Jupiter at the head of
them, to bring good luck, may have helped
to swell the list of casualties. | am much
disposed to think good plain English written
out at full length, is good enough for any
body's use"
And had the Autocrat of the Breakfast
Table lived in Nevada in this day, he doubt
less would have further advised them to
prescribe
MYROSE HAMS AND BACON
as the choicest meats to buy-the sweetest,
freshest cured and most healthful. Those
are plain American words
and when written on grocers' orders are
sure to bring good luck to the home of your
friends.
Your patients have faith in what you pre-
scribe; that's why we are so anxious to have
you order MAYROSE Hams and Bacon for
your own home-then you can more conf
IDENTIFY prescribe them as a means of keeping
in good health those families.
Yours for good health,

The demand for ships has resulted
in the growth of new shipbuilding In
dustry in the South. There are about
50 vessels now in course of construction
In the South Atlantic and gulf states,
and the number is constantly increas-
ing. There would seem to be q con-
siderable future for the business In
this section, as long as the demand ia
for wooden hulls. for all the necessary
lumber is often available within easy
distance of the docks. Thus num-
ber Of ships are being built In New

aMY COUNTRY

Three years of war, and the end not
yet In sight. The guarded opinion OF
Washington is gradually seeping out
that 1t will take three more years to
secure victory for the Allies, because
the present forces are unable to con-
auer on either side, and 1t will take
that long to bring the entire force OF
this big country UP to a point of efici-
ency that will give the Allies superb
ority In men and equipment.
II this Interpretation of existing
conditions is correct, every loyal
American may as well face the great
task before his country, grit his teeth,
and go into the game somewhere,
somehow to help on towards the de-
sired end. Whether through his
choice or not, his country faces one
of the greatest tasks in her history
not for herself, but for the world of
humanity. At such a time all trivial
ties must be laid aside, and only the
one great object kept in view. Ameri-
ca is not only liberty enlightenins
the world" but she must now throw
her whole united strength into the
struggle. MY country right-but my
country right or wrong!"
The first army of 500, 000, and the
regulars, to go to France, are consid-
cred by experts to be a drop in the
bucket. 1t may take millions of Am
orleans to reach the goal of victory
and bring a lasting protection to the
smaller nations of the world.
