Bad Habits

Those who breakfast at eight
o'clock or later, lunch at twelve
and have dinner at six are almost
certain to be troubled with indi-
gestion. They do not allow time
for one meal to digest before TAX
ing another. Not less than five
hours should elapse between
meals. If you are troubled with
indigestion correct your habits
and take Chamberlain's Tablets,
and you may reasonably hope for
a quick recovery. These tablets
strengthen the stomach and ena-
bic it to perform its functions
naturally. 0btainable every
where.

Town Improvement Club.

A town Improvement soSie'J
would not be q bad thing Tor
Baxter Springs. In fact, 1t
would be 4 mighty fine thing, .
very sensible thing, and If the
good people will pardon US, we
will say very necessary step and
4 decidedly profitable one. For
an indefinite period The News Is
going to print a series of articles
on "Town Improvement" from
the pen of a very able and
earnest writer. We are sure
they will be both interesting aud
instructive.
What q fine thing it would be
for Baxter to earn the reputation
of being the most beautiful,
the most orderly and the most
sanitary little city in Kansas.
Wouldn't you be proud to be a
citizen of such a town, dear
reader? And it can be done, oh,
so easily. Determination and
united effort will perform the job.
The News would like to have
started a Town Improvement
Club, or a club under whatever
other name you may choose to
call it. We believe il should in
clude both men and women, and
have for its object the moral,
sanitary, industrial and educa.
tional betterment of the com.
munity.
We have in mind now a mum.
ber of men and women who by
virtue of their experience and
the knowledge they have OF the
needs of the community, and
their interests in its welfare,
ought to be actively engaged in
this work. We wonder if these
people wouldn't be willing to
help start Town Improvement
Club. We should like to have
them tell us what they think
about it.
This does not mean some one
else; it means you. Express
your views.

Whether you buy government bend and get interest and tho money returned. or whether you pay an in domnity to the German government. in tho evvnt of the success of the war by Germany is an issue placed squarely up to the people by this gov ornment
 The situation fig plain The allies need money to fight and win
 At the very outset of this war. and scmo years ago. a leading English man made the declaration that the war would last long time and that the last billion dollars would win it
 Perhaps that is the situation today
 Men at the front can not fight un less they arc provided with food and ammunition.
 Hundreds of thousands of dollars are shot away every hour sometimes when great armies are in their places
 We Americans have not had this war brought home to us yet We have not seen the danger yet of an adjust ment or of an indemnity We must take more interest in the war now because it is our war, and it iy win or lose with us.
