ILLINOIS TO CELEBRATE CEN
TENNIAL THIS MONTH.

Governors from every State in the
Union have been invited, in an invi-
tation sent out by the Illionis Cen
tennial Commission, to attend the
celebration of the centennial of the
adoption of the first constitution of
Illinois to be held in Sprinfield on
August 26. This is one of the prin-
cipal celebrations of the Illinois Cen
tennial. The most elaborate cele-
bration, however, will be during the
first week in October, which will be
the centennial Of the meeting Of the
first legislature and the Inauguration
of the first Governor.
On August rs, a great mass meet
ing will be held at the Illinois State
Fair grounds, presided over by Gov
Iernor Frank o. Lowden and address,
ed by former President Theodore
Roosevelt. The occasion will be on
the last day of the Illinois State
Fair and Centennial Exposition and
free gate will be declared during
the entire day. In the evening,
"The Masque Of Illionis," written
by Wallace Rice, pageant writer for
the Illinois Centennial Commission,
will be produced under the direction
Of Frederick Bruegger, pageant
master.
During the first week in October,
there will be several events and
President Woodrow Wilson has prom
ised to be present on at least one day,
unless unexpected events interfere.
At this time a statue of Abraham
Lincoln made for the State by An
drew O'Connor, of. Worcester, Mass,
at cost of $4,000, and erected in
the State capitol grounds, will be
dedicated, the President making the
dedicatory address. A statue of Ste
phen A Douglas by Gilbert p. Ris-
void, of Chicago, also erected in the
State Capitol grounds will be dedi-
Gated at the same time with apprO-
pirate exercises Another feature of
the celebration will be the laying of
half dollar centennial memorial
State building, which will be erected
south of the present capitol and used
for the educational departments Of
the State government, including the
Superintendent of Public Instruction,
the libraries and museums. =
The celebration of the centennial
Of the admission of Illinois into the
Union began last spring with the OBJ
servance of the adoption of the En-
abling Act by Congress on. April 18.
Throughout the State, county organ
izations have been formed and these
are giving celebrations. Mosques.
little plays and pageants written by
Wallace Rice, pageant writer, are
being given in almost every county
and some times several in each
county.
The State celebration will close
with formal observance at the Uni
versity of Illinois, at Champaign, on
December 3, of the formal ratification
Of the State constitution by Congress
and the admission of Illinois into the
Union.

A BILIOUS ATTACK.

When you have bilious attack
your liver fails to perform its func-
lions. You become constipated. The
food you eat ferments in your stom-
ach and causes nausea, vomiting and
q terrible headache. Take three of
Chamberlain's Tablets. They will
tone up your liver, clean, out your
stomach and you will soon be as well
as ever. They only cost quarter.

WALNUTS BOUGHT FOR GER
MANS LONG AGO.
philadelphia Record.)

philadelphia Record.)
In his efforts to locate available
walnut timber for use by the Gov
eminent in the manufacture of gun
stocks, Walter B. Allen, director of
military service of the Blair County,
Pa, branch of the Council of Ma
tional Defense and Public Safety, has
discovered evidence of the war prep
aration plans of the German Govern
ment in years gone by.
He has ascertained that a great
amount of walnut timber was bought
by agents of the Kaiser, representa-
tions being made that it was intend
ed for use in the manufacture of fur
niture. The timber was purchased
about ten years ago, and none OF
those who sold it had the remotest
odea of the use to which it was to be
put. Few, in fact, knew that they
were selling to agents Of the German
Government
When trees were bought they would
be felled and left lying on the ground
until they could be sawed into pieces
suitable for handling. Later they
would be hauled to the nearest ship
ping point and sent away. Several
persons have informed Mr.. Allen that
they learned that the timber was sent
to Eastern seaports and shipped to
| Germany.
