Constipation and Indigestion
 These are twin evils. Persons suffering from indigestion are often troubled with constipation. Mrs. Robert Allison, Mattoon, H., writes that when she first moved to Mattoon she was a great sufferer from indigestion and constipation. Food distress ed her and there was a feeling like a heavy weight pressing on her stomach and chest. She did not rest well at night, and felt worn out a good part of the time. One bottle of Chamber lain's tablets corrected this trouble so that she has since felt like a different person. adv.

Y T is now nearly two years since
Italy took her place beside the
allies in the life and death strug-
gle that is holding the world in its
grip, and yet the calm and quiet to be
met with here in North Italy and close
up to the firing line cannot fail to
strike even the most casual observer,
writes correspondent of Country
Life. You hear the roar of. the can
non, some days almost continuously,
just over the mountains that divide the
"Veneto" from Austria; day by day
the hospital train passes along the val
ley carrying its load of sick and
wounded down from the front; day by
day motors and Red Cross cars dash
along the high road at breakneck
speed, giving the impression that mat
ters of life and death hang on the pace
at which they can reach their desti-
nation; and yet the peasants work on
in steady adherence to their tasks
barely looking up to notice all this un-
wonted movement, absorbed more than
usual at this moment in the land.
This, however, is not from indiffer-
ence as to the war; far from it, for the
subject is one that all alike are keenly
interested in, and every family has sent
one and often two or more members
to fight for their king and country.
But the Italian peasant also loves
the soil on which he and his fathers
before him have worked; his heart is
in the land, and the success or failure
Of the crops is to him a matter Of
well-being or starvation.
Hard Life, but Healthful.
In these times, too, the work re-
quires an unwOnted degree of attention
and labor, for every acre must be fully
cultivated. All the men from the age

The last word in summer blouses is
convincing that they, with many other
things, are devoted to simplicity. They
are close to plain in design, satin
bindings give them an exquisite finish,
and the resourcefulness of designers
has managed girdles, peplums and
pockets in the cleverest sways. These
items had to save the day for the plain
blouse, otherwise it would have met
with defeat and been branded as COM
mOnplace.
There are many plain sleeves wild
ened at the wrist, or near it, among
the newest blouses, and bead and silk
embroidery continue to appear in more
of them. By means of soft, loose gir-
dies, peplums or hanging pockets the
blouse is so well adjusted to separate
skirts that they seem made one for
the other. The blouse shown in the
picture is an example of the good ar
rangement of pockets and girdle. It is
of sand colored geOrgette crepe, bound
with satin the same color, and the
small buttons down the front are SATIN
covered. There are two reticule pock-

Of twenty-one to forty are, with few
exceptions, away at the front, and
those who remain must make good the
deficiency. In this they have, however,
willing helpmates in the women. At
all times the women work In proper
ton as hard as their men-folk in the
fields, and when to these duties are
added those of mothers and house
wives it is small wonder that they
age before their time, and that pret-
ty fresh girl Of eighteen is an old wom-
an at forty. Their life, though hard
in some ways, is on the other hand ex-
tremely healthful their habits are sim
pie and frugal, and they slide into old
age with constitutions untouched by
sharp vicis STUDIES of climate-the win
ters being excessively severe and the
summers very hOt-interested and
busy up t. the last in all that relates
to the land, the cattle, and their chill
dren.
Family life is on patriarchial lines I;
sons, daughters-in-law and their chill
dren (of which there is never any
lack) all live with the parents under
the same roof all share the same food
composed chiefly Of beans, Indian
corn and cheese--and all share one
purse. Kept, often pretty tightly too,

or a funeral may call FORTH.
The food question is, perhaps, the
simplest of the lot. The peasant in
this part of Italy shares with the own

In previous articles directions for
forming Red Cross chapter and di-
rections for forming an auxiliary to
a chapter, have been given, together
with suggestions for campaigns to Sc
cure members. When an auxiliary
has been formed, the next thing to do
is to determine what branch of Red
Cross work this particular auxiliary
will take up and how to 60 about do
ing the work.
The American Red Cross is anxious
to have available for use. at any time
great quantity of surgical dressings
and hospital supplies ready for the
demands that come from hospitals
where wounded soldiers and sailors
are cared for. In the preparation of
these supplies most women can help,
If they will. A newly formed aux
iliary can begin its services to the best
advantage by taking up this branch
of the work, for war makes the need
for hospital supplies Imperative and
volunteer workers can do the work.
Women in the churches throughout the
country are interesting themselves in
this means of service.
Meade County news., 1917-07-12

All surgical dressings and hospital
supplies must be made, packed and
shipped according to the specifications
and standards of the Red Cross, which
meet the requirements of the United
States army and navy. In order that
women may know how to prepare sup
plies that will conform to adopted
standards, the Red Cross is directing
much effort to the spread of instruc'
ton. The educational courses are un7

Noyes, director of the bureau Of nurs
ing service, in Washington. This in
struction is carried on in two forms
either by supplying instructors for in
dividual classes or in teaching cen.
ters, where permanent quarters are
engaged and a corps of teachers con,
duct continuous classes. These cen
ters are established now in New York
Brooklyn, Philadelphia, Washington,
Cincinnati, Cleveland, Chicago, Den

other places. For information con

draws from it the half that that la.
Dor brings as his portion; and this ar
rangement of the "mezzadria," or half
and-half system as we might call it,
is, If honestly adhered to, fairer and
more advantageous to all concerned
than any other. By it the peasant has
as keen, if not keener interest than
his landlord in the tilling Of the soil,
in keeping under the weeds, pruning
and spraying the vines, hoeing the In
dian corn, tending the cattle, and as
from all these sources one-half goes

the profits as abundant as possible.
His days work is generally long
one, especially in the summer when he
will be up and about at A a. m., but
as he can divide his hours entirely to
suit his own convenience the hardship
is not really great one. In the hot
months he will knock off work for a
long spell in the middle Of the day and
after a good siesta he will begin again
with a leisure that betokens much lib
erty Of action and total absence OF

collection of letters of thanks from families, often from little children, who address him as Mister" or give him the title names of popes dead many hundreds of years.
 The correspondent of the Associated Press on visit to the department saw a bundle of letters that had just been sent by the pope. possibly 75 in num- Der, and on the envelope of each one in his own handwriting was written directions concerning its disposition. Among the heap was a letter from his sister, the Countess Persico della Chi esq, of Genoa, the popes home city, asking that a search be made for a certain soldier of Genoa. "The count ess begs attention again" the pope had written on the letter. Another one of the letters was one of thanks from a French family whose son, Jean Laforgue, had been for two years in the Orient without being able to send news to his family of himself, but the pope had been able to discover this lost son at Samsam, in distant Turkey.
 Another letter was one of thanks from the family of Count Hugo de Rochefort lieutenant in the aeronau- tic corps, who. during the Somme of fensive, fell into the German lines. By telegraphing to the nuncio at Mu- nich, Bavaria. the department had been able to learn that the young man had died in the hospital and had been buried in the cemetery attached to the hospital. "It was at least a conso- lation for the family to know the bur. ial place." said Father Huisman.

LONDON. Jan. 19. - That private practitioners in the medical profession will be practically non-existent before the end of the war and all patients will have to go to infirmaries to be treated was the opinion expressed at the annual meeting of the Glasgow Victoria Infirmary
 The Lancet says There must come a day, if the war is indefinitely pro. longed, when the necessary economy Of medical men can only be obtained by mobilization of the whole of the available supply, SO that calls can be made upon individual services when and where required It has long been felt that some such step might be taken and we believe that the general opinion of the medical profession, judging by the correspondence that comes to us, is in a similar direction. D
