Summer Complaint

During the hot weather of the sum-
mer months some member of almost
every family is likely to be troubled
with an unnatural looseness of the
bowels, and it is of the greatest i'm
portance that this be treated promptly
which can only be done when the med
icine is kept at hand. Mrs F. F. Scott
IScottsville, N. Y, states, Il first used
Chamberlain Collie and Diarrhoea

that time l had a severe attack of sum-

tense pain. One dose relieved me.

How Men Will Go

The district board has power to
grant additional time in the case of
farmers and others who have pressing
work or business to close up before
going, but the local board is without
power in this respect. According to
the latest ruling of the war department
80 per cent of the men will go in the
first squad, 80 in the second, 80 in the
third and the remaining 10 per cent
a little later i. Unless otherwise or
dered, the local board will forward
the men to American Lake in the or
der of their draft

for these after arrival at the mob
ilization camp.
Since you will not be permit
ted to retain any trunks after
your arrival at the railroad sta
ton, the articles listed above
should be brought in hand bun
die.
eff you desire to do so, you may
return the civilian clothes you are
wearing when you arrive at the
mobilization camp to your home
by express or otherwise, but if
you desire to make no such ar
rangement, it will be better to ap-
pear in civilian clothes that you
do not care to keep"

BERLIN, via London, Aug 20-The

of the Meuse. At all other places over
a front of l4&s miles, the general staff
reports, fighting is in full swing.
The high command says that Talou
ridge was given up by the Teutons
because this line of defense since last
March had only been occupied by out
posts. On the Rumanian front forces
of the central powers have driven back
the Rumanians on both sides of the
Oituz valley and in the direction of the
Trotus VALLEY, the statement says.
In the fighting in the Oituz valley

! ing
Secretary Daniels said no additional

at present The chasers are valuable

sea going qualities which make them OF
far greater value in all WAYS than the
small chasers.
No figures ever have been made pub
lie of the number of deStroyers now
building. Secretary Daniels said to
day, however, that they represent tn,
maximum capacity of the country, 4,
the builders and engine and boiler max
