CHAsIBERLAYN'S COUGH RENE.
DY THE MOST RELIABLE.

After many years experience in
the use Of 1t and other cough medi-
cines, there are many who prefer
Chamberlain to any other. Mira.
A. c. KRISTEN. Greenville. H., writes
Chamberlain Cough Remedy has
been used in my mothers home and
mine for years, and we always found
it quick cure for colds and or0n-
chial troubles. We Ind It to be the
most reliable cough medicine ~

CONSTIPATION AND INDIGEs-
TION.

These are twin evils. Persons
suffering from indigestion are often
troubled with constipation. Mrs
Robert Allison, Nation. ILL.,, writes
that when she first moved to Mat
toon she was a great sufferer frcm
Indigestion and constipation. Focd
distressed her and there was a feel
ing like a heavy weight pressing on
her stomach and chest. She did not
rest we'll at night, and felt worn out
a good part Of the time. One bottle
of Chamberlain Tablets corrected
like a different person. Adv.

10 eject the needed saving OF wheat
We are wholly dependent upon the
voluntary assistance Of the American
people and we ask that the following
rules shall be observed:
l. Householders to use not to exceed
total OF IN pounds per week Of
wheat products per person. This
means not more than ~ pounds of
Victory bread containing the required
percentage Of substitutes and one-half
pound OF cooking -four, macaroni,
crackers, pastry, pies, cakes, wheat
breakfast cereals, all combined.
2. Public eating places and clubs to
observe two wheatless days per week,
Monday and Wednesday, as at present.
In addition thereto, not to serve to
any one guest at any one meal an
aggregate of breadstuffs. macaroni,
crackers, pastry, pies, cakes, wheat
breakfast cereals, containing a total
Of more than two ounces OF wheat
-four. No wheat products to be served
unless specially ordered. Public eat
ing establishments not to buy more
than six POUNDS OF wheat products Tor
each ninety meals served, thus con-
forming with the limitations requested
Of the householders
8. Retailers to sell not more than
one-eighth Of barrel Of flour to any
town customer at any one time and
not more than one-Quarter OF barrel
to any country customer at any one
time, and in no case to sell wheat
products without the sale Of an equal
weight of other cereals.
4. We ask the bakers and grocers to
reduce the volume of Victory bread
sold, by delivery Of the three-quarter
pound loaf where one pound was sold
batore, and corresponding proportions
n other weights. We also ask bakers
not to, increase the amount of their
wheat -four purchases beyond 70 per

SOME GOOD ADVICE.

Don't think too much of your
own methods Watch other peoples
ways and learn from them" This
is good advice, especially when bill
Gus or constipated. You will find
many people who use Chamberlain's
Tablets for these ailments with the
best results, and will do we'll to fol-
low their example, Adv.
St. Tammany farmer. [volume] (Covington, La.) 1874-current, 1918-05-11

cent. of the average monthly amount
purchased in the four months prior to
March l.
5. Manufacturers using wheat prod
ucts for non-food purposes should
cease such use entirely.
q. There is no limit upon the use OF
other cereals, hours, and meals, corn,
barley. buckwheat, potato -four, ct
cetera.
Many thousand families throughout
the land are now using no wheat prod
ucts whatever, except a very small
amount for cooking purposes, and are
doing so in perfect health and satisfac-
ton. There Is no reason why all OF
the American people who are able to
cook in their own households cannot
subsist perfectly well with the use of
less wheat products than one and one.
half pounds a week, and we specially
ask the well-tado households in the
country to follow this additional pro-
gramme in order that we may provide
the necessary marginal supplies for
those parts of the community less able
to adapt themselves to so large pro-
portion of substitutes.
In order that we shall be able to
make the wheat exports that are alb
solutely demanded of us to maintain
the civil population and soldiers of the
allies and our own army, we propose
to supplement the voluntary co-opera-
ton of the public by a further limita-
jtion Of distribution, and we shall place
at once restrictions ON distribution
which will be adjusted from time to
time to secure as nearly equitable dis
tribution as possible With the arrival
of harvest we should be able to relax
such restrictions. Until then we ask
for the necessary patience, sacrifice
and cooperation of the distributing
trades.

CHRONIC CONSTIPATION.

1t is by no means an easy matter
to cure this disease. but it can be
done in most instances by taking
Chamberlain's Tablets and comply
Ing with the plain printed lnstruc-
lions that accompany each package.

know where | am and what | am
doing, over in this part Of the
world, but Mrs. Brock I regret
very much that I cannot tell you.
The government is getting very
strict in censoring our letters.
Consequently we have to be very
careful in writing our letters, un-
less we want them turned down.
All that l can say is, that I am
over here, we'll, and feeling fine.
Hope this finds you and yours
we'll and happy, and enjoying
life. Best regards to all friends,
and wishing the Sunday School
and Church much success and
prosperity.
Again thanking you for your
kindness, and with lots Of love
and best wishes to all the people
in Dear Old Franklinton.
Respectfully,
