WHEN MATURE MAKES MAE.

A striking analogy between Natures and mans methods of warfare is pictured by John Oliver LaGoree in a communication to the National Geo. graphic Society. MT. LaGorce de- scribes our Atlantic Seaboard as one of Natures greatest battIegreunds be- tween the forces of the sea and the fortified areas of the land. A part of the communication is issued by the Society as bulletin of it's war geo. graphy series. as follows:
 "The operations of the sea assassins of Prussia on our eastern coast. in a futile effort to stay the mighty blow America is beginning to strike against despotisms brings into bold relief that ever changing stretch of coastline we so proudly call our Atlantic seaboard. "As the crow flies, it is some sixteen hundred miles from the out-harbor waters of Eastport, Maine, to the key ! guarded shanows Sound, Florida: but as the shore stretches southward miles lengthen into leagues, rocky cit adels give way to shifting sands, and both yield place to coral reefs.

A Dead Stomach
Of What Use Is It?

Thousands? Yes. hundreds of thou sanas of people throughout America are taking the slow death treatment
 They are murdering their own stomach, the best friend they have, and in their sublime ignorance they think they &ra putting aside the laws of nature. E
 This is no sensational statement; 1t is startling fact, the truth of which any honorable physician will not deny.
 These thousands of people are swal- lowing daily huge quantities of pepsin and other strong digesters, made espe- cially to digest the food in the stem- aeh without any aid at all from the digestive membrane of the stomach. M-o-pa stomach tablets relieve dis tressed stomach in five minutes; they do more Taken regularly for a few
 weeks. they build lip the run down stomach and make it strong enough to digest it's own food. Then indiges ton, belch1ng, sour stomach. and headache will go.
 An-o-na stomach tablets are sold by druggists everywhere and by The Lee & osgood Co.,. who guarantee them.

WORK WEARS ON THE

Dosn's Kidney Pills Have Done Great Service for People Who Work in
 Norwich.

Many Norwich people work every day in some strained, unnatural posi- tien-bending constantly over a desk riding on jolting wagons or cars doing laborious housework; lifting, reaching or pulling, or trying the back in. hundred and one other ways All these strains tend to wear, weaken and injure the kidneys until they fall be-. hind in their work of Altering the poisons from. the blood. Doan's Kid ney Pills are for weak kidneys and bad backs. Their effective work in Norwich is convincing proof of merit.

DAVIS THEATRE.

To induce the first women of Great Britain to do menial duties, such as scrubbing floors, washing windows and mopping walks, for motion pic ture reproduction, was one of the tasks that devolyed upon David w.
 Griffith while producing The Great Love, for Aircraft. which was pre- sented at the Davis theatre on Mon day.
 In making The Great Love the first of his new series for Aircraft, MT. Griffith received the help and encour- agement of Queen Alexandra and many of the leaders of social activi- ties of London. The picture reveals a beautiful love story, but it's prime purpose is to show how war has lev eled all ranks and awakened the so- called leisure classes of the British Empire to the needs of their country. The various roles are in the hands of notable screen players including koh- ert Harron. Henry Walthail and l-il- Han Gish.

 Thick and Lustrous.
 Few of us get bald in a day and we all have ample warning when our hair is thinning out.
 Parfsian sage is a most efficient hair iuv1rorator, but to immediately stop aDN- further loss of hair and quickly start a new growth it must be rubbed into the scalp SO the starved hair roots can really absorb 1t and get the vital stimulation so badly needed. You will surely be delighted with the first ap- phearon for your hair and scalp should look and feel 100 per cent. better.
 Partisan sage is not expensive. It's a scientific preparation that supplies all hair needs-a clean, non-sticky, antiseptic liquid that is sold by Lee & OsEood Go. and at drug and toilet counters everywhere with guarantee to give you perfect satisfaction or money refunded.
 Good looking hair is half the battle ir any mans or woman's personal Ap- pearance. Neglect means dull, thin, iireiess hatr and finally badness. while a httle attention pow insures thick and lustrous hair for years to come. No matter what your hair troubles trv a Parisian sage massege tonight you will rot be disappointed.
