The winning of the war is now
the first purpose of mankind. No
sacrifice is too great to be made to
achieve that end. Wealth is being
confiscated through taxation, food is
being rationed and men are being
drafted for service. Because of the
peril that confronts us we are tempt
ed, at the price of criticism, to sug-
gest that we add another day to the
week for the period of the war. The
Huns know no sabbath in their mad
efforts to chain the world to their
chariot wheels, and may we not just
ly employ that day in the necessary
and useful task of producing imper-
alive supplies for our armies. Might
not the hours from Nine to One be re-
served for attending church services
and the remainder of the day devot-
ed to the righteous service of pro-
ducing those substances without
which our armies in the field would
be helpless. If the Lord is on our
side He would make due allowance
for our imperative necessities.

There seems to be no longer any
doubt about the national congress
adopting prohibition for the period of
the war, and the war on liquor will
never end. The evil of the liquor
traffic has sunk deeply into the con-
science of the nation, and the days
of the saloon in these United States
are forever passed. But it were idle
to hope for a final and complete sup
preston of the use of intoxicants
through act of the national congress.
The appetite of mankind may not be
radically changed by legislative en-
actment. 1t may be expected that
substitutes stimulants will spring up
in every nook and corner. No seer
may forsee what system may grow up
from the ruins now being wrought.
but consulting human history las it is
written in the appetites and customs
of all ages. the assumption is war
anted that stimulating beverages will
not disappear from the earth. But
let us hope that a milder method of
tired nerves may result from
the overthrow of the fiercer fire of al
cohol.

Proper Food for Weak Stomachs

The proper food for one man may be
all wrong for another. Every one
should adopt a diet suited. to his age
and occupation. Those who have weak
stomachs need to be especially careful
and should eat slowly and masticate
their food thoroughly. 1t is also i'm.
portant that they keep their bowels
regular. When they become constipat-
ed or when they feel dull and stupid
after eating, they should take Cham
berlain's Tablets to strengthen the
stomach and move the bowels. They
are easy to.take and pleasant in effect.
