The highly organized, finely strung
nervous system of women subjects
them to terrors of nervous apprehen-
sion which no man can ever appre-
ciate.
The peace of mind, the mental
poise and calmness under difficulties,
which are necessary for happy wom-
anhood, are only possible when the
sensitive organism is in a perfectly
healthy condition. If there be any
arrangement in this respect no rem
edy in the world so completely re-
stores womanly health as the won
derful "Favorite Prescription" dis
covered by DIR. Pierce. who early
practiced medicine in Pennsylvania.
Beaver Springs, Pa.-"I had been
sick for several years with blind,
dizzy spells, palpitation of the heart,
pains in back of head, and at times
weak, tired feeling and nervous
spells. l tried several doctors but
they failed to do me any good. AS

Pierce's Favorite Prescription, / be-
gan to get better-could sleep nights

education tunneling under the very
foundations of the mighty institu-
tions. More than one mine has been
exploded with disastrous results by
these skillful warriors. The fleet OF
literature has bombarded the forts
from where 1t rides in the offing.
Great authors and modern newspa-
pers alike have poured hot shot into
the liquor camp.
Deprivation has been at work as
a temperance ally. Society has de-
prived the liquor dealer and the
drinker of its approval. Great COM
mercial institutions. railways and
such like have closed their doors to
strong drink. The most eminent pc
riodical publications in the land re-
fuse to admit to their columns the
advertisements of spirftuous liquors
So the siege goes on with the De-
sieged increasingly concerned.
Intemperance is linked to evil, al
ways and everywhere. Strong drink
and hard times go together. So 40
drink and physical suffering. The
saloon and the prison are cause ana
effect; likewise the saloon and the
asylum. Disgrace, shame, poverty
and sorrow all follow in the wake OF
the bottle. Surely this should teach
men to shun drink. But 1t does not.
The benificent Teacher puts the
thorn of suffering on the rose OF sin,
but men heed not the pain or the
blood. Neither Israel nor America
could be moved by the clear moni-
tions of God regarding drunkenness.
1t has taken this holocaust of horror,
this baptism of blood, this rendlnS
of the foundations of society to
teach men the temperance lesson.
Then the Preachers Go Wrong
A drunken preacher is almost un-
heard of in this land and day, though
IsraePs fierce condemnation of such
is quite comprehensive. The people
expect better of their religious leader
than they do of themselves. There
were no UNCONVENTIONAL lines, and
no secular nor religious in the recent
outcry from all parts of the world
over the action of certain British
church gathering, in refusing to ac-
cept personal total abstinence during
he war. Daily newspapers wed
with temperance organs in holding
the action up to scorn. For the most
part the pulpit has assumed ao-
vanced ground on the temperance
question. Not only does 1t practice

Elks War Fund to
Equip Two Hospitals

Out of the $1,00o,000 fund OBJ
tained by the Elks' War Relief Com
mission throughout the United States
recently steps were taken to COM
pIetely equip two base hospitals, one
at the University of Oregon and the
other at the University of Virginia,
according to John K. Tener, formerly
Governor of Pennsylvania, chairman
of the commission.
THE base hospitals which the
commission decided to equip at a
cost of 100000 EACH" Mr.. Tener
said, will contain every modern
surgical device and appliance that
genius is capable of producing.
These hospitals will be thor
oughly equipped so that our soldiers
will receive the very best medical
care and attention. The flag of Elk
dom will at all times fly from the
mast of four base hospitals in recog-
milton of this princely gift. Prepara-
tions are being made now by The
Government and the Red Cross to re-
ceive thousands of injured men from
the European battlefields. These
men must receive every comfort and
attention, and the Benevolent and
Protective Order of Elks will do
everything in its power to see that
they are well cared for"
p. L. Campbell president of the
University of Oregon. on learning or
the decision of the Elks' War Relief
Commission to equip the base hospi-
tai, said:
I'VE feel sure that the university
base hospital will prove instrumental
in saving the lives of thousands of
our wounded men at the front"

tianity brings to bear upon the race
new impulses. and erects within the
spirits Of mankind, new ideals. There
is nothing irrational in "a World's
Temperance Sunday for the church
and Sunday school. In this they are
strictly attending to their own busi-
ness. For the gospel has to do with
the ordinary relationships of human
beings. 1t is in the business of Great
Ing new men and women. Clean
ness, sobriety. chastity, self denial,
have been cardinal to its teachings.
AS the letters of Paul make clear,
Christianity stands for a type of
character in contrast of that of the
old, dissolute nations.
This is Vividly brought home to
the traveller in Bible lands. Why is
it that these once flourishing cities
proud Ephesus where Diana was
splendidly worshiped; Sardis. where
Croesus reigned; Iconium, which
boasted of being the first spot to
emerge after the deluge-are now of
interest chiefly for their ruins.
What laid low the power of this
proud Rome, l asked myself as my
horse logged down the echoing mar
BILE highway, Uttered with broken
columns at Ephesus, while the only
habitation in sight was a shepherds S
hut? 1t was sel-indulgence Rome
did as it pleased"-and Is now but
memory. Christianity taught pur-
ity, self-denial, love, and 10. it reigns
in increasing power over the greater
part of the earth. The callow youth
who sneers at the old-fashioned vir-
tues of his mothers religion, should
go to the library and get a volume
of general history. No drunken,
self-pleasing nation ever had long
life. The reason the outlook for the
Turkish Empire seems dark to many
close observers is that the people
themselves are not noble, broad
minded, pure-souled and fraternal.
Very divergent forces have been at
work, in many different customs of
ages. There is first the open assault
and direct charge of the regular tenn
perance army, with all it's divisions
and weapons, its big guns and its
small arms. These have taken posi-
ton after position and have been in
the stress of hand to hand conflict
They are the main reliance of the
besiegers.

COSTS LITTLE TO
SOOTHE NERVES
OF SOLDIER BOYS
Tobacco Fund Brings Real
Joy to Lads in Battle
Trenches

You can have your soldier in the
trenches" somewhere in France sim
ply by making a subscription of 25
cents to the Harrisburg Telegraph's
tobacco fund. You can have more
than one If you care to.
Every 25-cent kit of tobacco sent
out by this fund contains a postcard,
stamped. with your name and ad-
dress written on it. The soldier who
gets that package with your postcard
in 1t Is asked to write you some mes
sage of acknowledgment for the
courtesy of that little gift to mis-
comfort.
When you get that postcard from
the front you'll know that your rs
cents has given comfort and satisfac-
ton to some young fellow who is
fighting your fight at the front.
It's a wonderful scheme that has
been worked out to bring the con-
ISOLATION of quiet smoke to our boys
at the front. When you consider
, how much real satisfaction a quarter
will buy, you'll want to subscribe II
good deal more than one quarter.
/, For 20 cents you send to your SOL
der three packages of popular
smoking tobacco, one tin of extra
of cigarets, and several packages of
papers, to roll his own" all of
which would cost twice as much as
your quarter If bought at retail. The
Telegraphs fund supplies this out
fit, and the postcard; and delivers
the whole thing to your soldier.
It's good deal to give for a quar-
ter; you couldn't think of anything
quite so acceptable to the man who
gets it, for three or four times the
price.
If you compare a quarter of dol
lar with the real joy and satisfaction
of the man who gets this little token
of the kindly thought of somebody
back home, you'll realize that you've
actually bought more genuine value
for 25 cents than you ever bought
in your life before.
And just remember that 81 does it
four times; and $40 does it forty
times; forty American soldiers given
the good old home feeling with pipe
or cigaret. It's worth the price;

There is no instrument that brings
out the sentiment of old Southern melo-
dies with more pleasing effect than the
banio-perhaps because at some time or
other we have heard sweet, melodious
Negro voices singing these old songs to
banjo accompaniment.
But when that grand past master of
the banjo, Fred Van Fps, places his be-
loved banjo across his knees and starts
strumming, the very air throbs with
rapid-ir melody.
Mr.. Van Fps has arranged and re-
corded a medley of old-time Southern
airs. which includes "Old Folks at

Travel" Kentucky Home" "Climb Up,
Children and Carve That 'Possum.'
