Fills Stomach
 With New Energy
Weak, Worn Out, Classy, Sour Stom' ach Revived and Made to Enjoy Food With Stuart's Dys-
 pepsia Tablets.

Most of us eat three times day and often forget that each meal should be disposed of in the stomach to make room for the next. The failure of the stomach to do this is called indiges- tion or dyspepsia, with its sour ris- ings. gas, rumblings, pain, depression and the feeling of stiffness when breathing is difficult
 The most effective remedy and the most reliable one, because you can get it at any drug store in the Unit ed States or Canada, is Stuart's Dys- pepsia Tablets. at 50 cents box. In. stead of depriving yourself of food or going on a starvation diet simply keep on as you have and let these tablets straighten out your stomach digest the food and keep you in the fight

DEPTH BOMBS SOUND
 SUBMARINE KNELL
Vessels Carrying the Terri ble Explosive, However,
 Must Avoid Collisions

On Board an American Destroyer in French Waters, September 3o.-(Corre- spondence of the Associated Press)-An American destroyer with her depth bombs ready to be discharged is indeed a dangerous craft to monkey with. She is a menace not only to the enemy, but to any other craft with which she might
 collide in the darkness, running without
 lights, and to herself as well. If one or
 her depth bombs loaded with it's heavy
 charge of TINT should be accidentally ex-
 ploded there would be little left of the
 destroyer.
 The deadly depth charge, which proved to be the conclusive answer to the sub marine menace, now is being released from every quarter of the destroyer. Two of these big cylinders of high ex- plosives can be dropped from the bridge | by the pressure of a button. Amidships 1 Thornycroft throwers drop charge from
 either side of the destroyer, forming a | barrage.
 | "Y-guns' are stationed amidship with l two barrels, each of which throws a depth charge, one to port and the other l to starboard Finally astern. there are two long lines of depth charges run ming on miniature railway tracks, ready to be dropped over the stern.
 With all these depth bomb charges ready to be let loose forward. aft ane ,I amidships and complete enveloping bar
 rage can be put in operation at an,
 time. With the destroyers completel! ,1 enveloping the transports the water bar rage extends its protecting sweep en
 trely around the fleet. Great care is taken against any col usions in the darkness, which would re l lease the depth charges. While the shocl , of a collision would. not cause an ex poson, the depth charge might destro it's own ship by exploding when
 reached the depth fixed by the fuse l Such an explosion has actually occurre , in one case, doing considerable damage . but causing no fatalities. This inciden : lhas given warning of the extreme car n needed to guard against night collision y when the fleet is going through the dark s ness with all lights out.

7FTE MOTOR TRUCK AND THE WAR-By Frdk C. Carpenter

rural motor truck routes and open up territory not now easily accessible to tne railroads A survey has been made or the possible through or connecting routes east of the Mississippi river, and this indicates that we should have 15OO miles of postal highways, of which at least 5000 miles will be essential to this ser vice. A similar mileage Will propaoly he necessary west of the Mississippi.
 MT. Blakeslee tells me the earnings of the postal truck service would more than pay the cost of making and maintaining these highways, and that without reduc- ing the present postal income derived by using other means of transportation. He estimates that 10000 such routes would each earn s4o,0o0 per year, producing s4OO coo, 900 per annum, or more than the annual postal revenue at this time.
 But this is only the beginning. we already have something like 6O,VVO rural | and star routes in working order, and 100 GOO motor trucks might be easily em- ployed At the time that the war closes l we shall have far more than this mum Der in France, and they can be brought home and put to work in the mall ser | vice at great profit. To the earnings
 from carrying of parcels Is added the high rates of transportation for first class mail matter, which makes the totai
 profits of the transportation greater than can possibly be earned by any private organization attempting to compete. AL ready we have postal truck routes rum ming all the way from Portland, Me, tc
 New Orleans and from Philadelphia to Pittsburg and Columbus, Cincinnati and Memphis New routes are being formed every week, and so far the increase Tn the traffic is enormous.

families and household goods were car ried from one place to the other on trucks. The change was made within 4S hours, and that without any perceptble halt in the work.
 It would take columns of newspaper space to print the names of the many motor-truck companies now doing an express business from city to city in and about the great cities of the United States. Most of the chain stores have their own trucks and carry goods from the main supply plants to their various stations. A Brooklyn company with 2c stores is delivering goods for a radius of 145 miles on Long Island. It has II trucks and six trailers. chain Of drug stores runs from Waterbury to Reading, Pa., and Washington, D. C. Il has a fleet of five-ton trucks which run regularly. It has already paid for itself There is motor-truck service between San Francisco and Palo Alto, Cal, with a special service to Camp Fremont. Its buses run 200 miles a day, and the serv' ice altogether handles about 20O0 passen' gers daily. The cost of operation pel bus is about 15 cents per mile. and les' | than three-fourths of 1 cent per mile per passenger.

city are now done by truck. and in some cities the department stores have com bined and are cooperating in parvel de- livery. Not long ago the merchants of Ottawa. Kan, were operating thirty-four delivery trucks. They combined, and the business is now done by nine trucks, with saving of from 25 to 70 per cent,
 More important than any city, com pany or individual truck enterprise Is that being carried on by the parcel post branch of the United States mails This service is under the charge of Fourth As sistant Postmaster General Blakeslee, man with vision who sees in the motcf
 truck the bringing together of the pro
 ducer and the consumer, the elimination
 of the middleman, who feeds on the far mer; tho release of the congestion of
 the railways the improvement of our highways and the creation of a new busi- ness for the backwoods farmer and out of-the- way manufacturers, which Will bring such results as could almost pay the interest of our national debt. Up tt six months ago there had been estab Ilished by the postoffice department eigh motor truck star routes, and these dur | ing the six months preceding had made l total net profits of more than Sl66,Oo Every route had earned over S20,000, equa | to double that amount per annum, ant the average profit of every passenger mile of travel was more than cents During last July new routes were pu I in order covering more than 2S00 mile: of road and involving a daily travel O 46o0 miles.

Each of these types had its own repair parts and those used for one could not pc used for the others. The same con dition prevailed in the other countries at war. The Germans had simplified their vehicles to a certain extent oCt those of the allies were composed or machines of many different kinds. One army for instance, had four standards ] of pneumatic tires and no end of sizes. It's tire situation was so involved that I it took seven times as many tires as 1 if the trucks had been made With the | tires Interchangeable. It is much the | same in that army-today. Similar con- | diticns prevailed as to other parts or the machines, and the whole necessi- tated vast quantity of repair parts | of one kind or another. The Br1tlsh

moving back and forth over the Ap- palachian mountains. The loads carried are of every description Some have rubber tires, gas masks made of rubbef and other such things from Akron on
 the way to the east. Others carry
 munitions and munition-making ma chinery, and some have picric acid and other explosives, which are so deadly
 that the railroads fear to transport them on account of the danger. This
 was the case with cargo of picric
 acid which was taken from New Jer-
 sey to eastern Pennsylvania. The dis
 tance was 50 miles, and a fleet of
 trucks delivered the goods. Not long
 ago the copper stills for chemical company in New Jersey were brought there from Philadelphia. Each still was bie enough to form a scalding vat for a hippopotamus. It was eight feet high seven feet in diameter and weighed 5000 pounds. Nevertheless, one truck took two of these stills as 1 a load and hauled them to the plant | in less than 12 hours.
 l The need for speedy transportation. 1 independent of the railroads, has been
 so great that motor truck routes have been established from many of the interior cities to New York. There is one known as the Akron and Boston express, which has been taking rubber goods from Akron to Boston. Its trucks have 12-inch tires and they run i on express schedule They leave Akron i daily at 6 o'clock in the morning, get to Pittsburg about in the evening, and al
 noon the third day at Philadelphia They reach New York by 10 o'clock that evening" and are due in Boston "A hours later. Two men go with each truck ano one drives while the other sleeps. Tele'
 e-rams are sent from time to time as tt
 where the trucks are on the road.
 This service started with four truck
 carving tires to the east and bringins back cotton fabrics and other materials
 IIater a nthe trucks were increased f

In December, 1916, the first trai 5 of army trucks left Detroit for the At : lantic seaboard. It consisted of 9 trucks. and it made its delivery O l, schedule time.
