HAD SEEN THEM "AT WORK"
Tommy Had Little Need to Puzzle His
Brains Over Question Propounded'
by Teacher.

Here is little story that was told
at social session by Representative
Hubert D. Stephens of Mississippi, as
an illustration that the best industrial
results cannot always be obtained
through team work:
Some time since. the teacher of a
public school in country town was
instructing juvenile class In mathe-
matics when she turned to small boy
named Tommy
Tommy" said she, ''if your father
can do piece of work in six days and
your uncle Jim can do 1t in seven days.
how long would 1t take them to do 1t
together?"
"About ten thousand years." was the
rather startling rejolnder of Tommy.
Ten thousand years." exclaimed
the teacher. "Why, Tommy, what do
you mean?"
Il mean." was the prompt response
of Tommy, that II you put them to
work together they would sit on the
fence, smoke and swap fish stories."-

ADDED BEAUTY TO GARDENS
World Owes Debt to Frenchman Who
improved on the Glory of the
Lilac Blossom.

One of Frances war gardeners of
1901 won Immortality by studying
his plants instead of tending his gar
den merely as a way to help out with
the food supply. Like most war gar
deners. he did not give his attention
exclusively to vegetables but planted a
few flowers, and 1t was with these that
he had conspicuous success.
In 1871 Victor Lemoine began his
experiments In cross-fertilizing differ
ent species of lilac. He took up this
work to get his mind away from the
troubles Of his country, for Il German
garrison was quartered in his native
town, Nancy, and the rest of France
except the doomed provinces of Alsace
Lorraine, was slowly buying back Its
freedom from the same hated pres
ence. Lemoine's sight at that time was
very bad, so he planned and had his
wife execute.
That was the origin of the wondrous
group Of shrubs known today through
out the civilized world as "Frencf
lilacs," with their great trusses Of
beauteeus bloom. 1t Is Lemoine's best
known work, though not his only one
He recreated the mock orange, the
deutzia, the weigelia, the delphinium
and a score of other perennials and
shrubs.

Hot Weather Hits us
Hardest in Stomach

EATONIC is the wonderful new
compound that absorbs the HARM
full gases and juices and almost
instantly drives away stomach
misery.
Instead of sudden and painful
attacks Of Indigestion, after you
begin using EATONIC you'll for
get you have stomach. And there
will be no more heartburn, food
repeating, sour stomach, gas pains,
or that lumpy, bloated feeling you have
so often experienced after eating. Then
your appetite-you know how bard it
is to satisfy in hot weather-eat one or
two EATONIC Tablets half hour be-
fore lneals-and you will enjoy the re-
suits and feel better in every way.
These are few reasons why you
should start using EATONIC today and
fortify your stomach against the chance
trouble this summer. 1t costs only SOC
for a big package. Your druggist whom
you know and can trust, will promptly
refund your money if you are not
more than satisfied.

Keep a closewatch on yourstom-

change of diet-will make US all
easier prey to stomach and bowel
trouble than ever before. It is SO
easy to become overheated on a
blazing hot day, especially after
eating a hearty meal. And then
the excessive heat makes us food
our stomachs with all kinds of
cold drinks. That's bad at any
time; much worse-even danger
ous-when there is the slightest
feeling of stomach trouble.
Keep the stomach sweet and
cool and free from too much acid
that's about all that is neces-
sary. It's not SO much the diet
as to keep the poison from start
ing trouble. You can easily do
this if you will just take tablet or
two of EATONIC after your meals.

HUNS APPLY TORCH
TO COVER RETREAT
BLOW UP MUNITIONS DUMPS
AND BURN STORES WHICH
THEY COULD NOT REMOVE.
franco-American Troops Continue
Their Forward Drive, and Germans
Now Evidently Realize That
Allies Have Upper Hand.

With the Army in France,-North of
the Marine the Germans are making
preparations for further retreat.
In the angle between the Marine and
the Ardre, on the eastern side of the
salient, the enemy has been blowing
up munition dumps and burning stores
which they have not had time to re-
move. The enemy's position is in a
heavy wooded and broken country,
without main roads aud railways in
shape to use.
To feed the Soissons-Marne front
the Germans have only one railway
line from the Aisne in the neighbor-
hood of Mourg to Bazoches, where it
joins the main line of the Soissons-
Rheims road The latter road is still
lance on each side of Bazoches, but
the junction there is being bombed
constantly.
The remaining force of the enemy
may possibly fall back to the line of
Vesle, abandoning the Crise and the
commanding plateau surrounding the
Crise and Vesle valleys.
That the Germans now realize to the
| full that the allies have the upper
hand in the battle seems apparent from
reports that they are burning villages
behind them in their retreat and de-
stroying large quantities of munitions
and war materials throughout the en-
tire salient which they have found it
impossible to move, owing to the rapid
strides of the allies Big guns now are
throwing shells far behind the lines,
searching out the entire countryside,
wilIie allied airplanes are marrying the
retreating columns with machine gun
| fire.
| The efforts of the Germans to re-
tard the Franco-American forces were
particularly heavy Monday in the reg
ion of Grisolles and Bezu-St. Germain,
respectively northwest and north of
| Chateau Thierry, where the Americans
are giving battle. On all three sectors
the enemy lost further ground, and
his forces in the Chateau Thierry
pocket were therefore placed in great
er jeopardy.
| Realizing the seriousness of his
predicament, the German crown prince
is said to have sent out distress sig
nails to his cousin, Crown Prince Rup-
| precht of Bavaria, whose men are fac
