Prominent Men.

Rev. Fred J. Clark preached yes
terday morning at the First Congre-

Considering that time is infinite,
few years more or less of life are
of little importance. I feel like
Charles Frohman when he stood on
the sinking ship in mid ocean and
said with smile, Death is the most
beautiful adventure of life"
From Christ's Words.
Rev. Mr.. Clark took his text from
the words of Christ, Il am come that

is crysta'izing fast, but it is a ques
ton whether it will crystalize fast
enough. The lack OF the spirit, how.
ever, does not lie here in the centra
west, if you wish to know the truth.
Everett. Colby Of New Jersey, one
OF the commission that investigated
food. conditions~in France and the
allied countries, said:
THE situation is positively des-
perate. We have the food and can
mobilize it, but it is question
whether we can mobilize it in time,
People do not begin to realize how
serious the matter is. As the war
stands at the present time, we're
licked, that's all there is to it, We
must get food across in large guam
titles and quickly.
Down to Five Day Margin.
"Pershing has been told that he
would be furnished with food supply
to give them a90 day margin. When
we were over there his. army was part
of the time down to five-day margin,
and that is altogether to close a
margin for an army"
DR.. Ray Lyman Wilbur, president
of Leland Stanford uliyersiay, said
when one realizes how desperate
are the allies and our own troops
abroad for supplies, one can realize
how imperative was Garfield's order
We may look for some awful re-
verses before the people of the
country become thoroughly awake to
the need Of thorough cooperation in
every phase of the war. The argu-
ment cannot be made in minute
Unless people go Gut of the meetings
vowing that the will not taste another
piece OF bacon until the end Of the
war, we had failed in our purpose"

This food is apt to foment and de-
compose, and as result the familiar
distressing symptoms of dyspepsia
may arise. In mild cases there is
nothing more than an uncomfortable
feeling in the stomach, with a certain
amount of depression, headache, loss
OF appetite, perhaps helching, or gas
and occasional vomiting. There may
be also accompanying intestinal symp-
toms, such as pains in the back, col
lie. etc. There may be only the ia
miliar heartburn. due to the infiam-
nation OF the stomach from excess
sive. gases OF fermentation or putre-
faction.
In the most severe cases-those
that last over day or two--the
symptoms enumerated may be much
more intense. The distress may be
marked and the general constitutional
symptoms more evident. When this
stage is reached the loss OF appetite,
the mental depression and the general
uncomfortable feeling in the stomach
are much more pronounced. This is
particularly true in acute gastritis.
1t frequently occurs from con-
tinued errors in diet that this condi-
ton becomes chronic and the svmp-
toms persist for an indefinite period:
the appetite is very apt to be varied,
although at times very good. Heart
burn Is frequent. if not constant, the
stomach is painful on pressure, the
tongue is coated, there is a bad taste
/ IN the mouth and there are changes
IN the amount Of salivary secretion,
Most cases of dyspepsia can be
cured II the diet is properly looked
alter and with the proper treatment
Proper eating and the proper amount
OF food are the most important fea-
lures in the treatment. Most people
eat too fast and eat too much.
There is not single portion OF
the body that is not benefited by the
helpful action of Tanlac, which begins
It work by stimulating the digestive
and assimilative organs, thereby en-.

wornout stomach to thoroughly digest
the food, promoting the assimilation
OF the nourishing products to be con-
verted into blood. bone and muscle. !"

PEOPLE AROUSED.
The campaign to bring before the
people Of America the necessity ol
saving foods, has been a wonderful
success" said DR.. L. 5. Davis OF the
University Of Indiana. one Of the
South Platte speakers. Last Sep.
tcmber 7 was discouraged, AM
thought ence there was no patriotism
in America. II was hard to get q
crowd OF 200 people to come out tc
hear a food speech or to attend
patriotic meeting OF any kind. Ir
January last, we were out but IL
days and spoke to 5000 people. All
one has to do now is to announce Z
patriotic meeting and the people viii
come out. They are intensely in.
terested and 1t 10 great tribute to
their intelligence.
FOOD CARDS MAY COME.
Il know now that where people
understand how to make these sub.
stitutes in foods they are willing to
make them Here and there they dc
not yet understand how. to make all
the substitutes requested But the
people of America are showing 4
wonderful willingness to cooperate
in this work.
"Soone.. or later it may be neces-

Speaking of Tanlac. he said: sThou-
sands OF the most prominent people
in fact, people representing all walks
OF life in the larger cities OF the coun-
try, where the celebrated medicine
has been accomplishing such remarka-
bic results. are even more enthusiastic
over Tanlac than Mr.. Cooper himself
In explanation OF this. ii should
be stated that Tanlac is believed to
be the first actually direct specific for
catarrhal inflammation OF the mucous
membrane and the complications
which follow them.
"Catarfh OF the stomach is one of
the most frequent causes of dyspep-
sia and catarrhal inflammation of the
nose and throat leads to inevitable
complication, such as kidney and liver
affections, rheumatism. etc
Show me man whose eyes are in
famed, whose sense OF smell and
hearing Is affected. and will show
you man who is suffering from ca
tarrh. Frequently the lungs become
involved by the extension of the ca
tarrhal Inflammation or germs to the
lung substance. Specialists concede
this, but it has remained for Tanlac
the new formula. to provide the rem
edy, as has been so conciusively and
convincingl, proven by the hundreds
of thousands who have been relieved
by its use"
AT this point Mr. Willis quoted
from one OF Mr.. Cooper's recent lee
lures. in which he said.
'sOf all the distressing conditions
that afflict humanity, catarrh of the
stomach. or what is more commonly
known as chronic dyspepsia. is prob.
ably the most prevalent. This mos
universal malady has baffIed the med.
ieai profession for years, and the
most skilled specialists have been un
able to cope with ii successfully.
