from Paul Grout, who IS now stationed
in Company /, l03d [. 5. Infantry, Amer

which he states that the ground froze Tor
the first time about Dec. /, and that they
have now about three inches of snow
with a few days of cold weather. In his
letter dated Dec. %, he says: I'VE had
quite a time here Christmas. The eve

Rev. H. New. of Charleston, Ca, who

lowing interesting statement regarding

six years ago she began suffering with
Indigestion and although she used ma ay
litferent remedies trying to get relief,
she gradually grew worse She got so
she couldn't ear nothing scarcely. and
what she did eat caused her almost con.
slant suffering. Gas would form on her
stomach right after meals and she
would suffer with cramping pains which
were very severe. She had terrible
headaches and would get very nervous.
She got down with her back about a
ear ago and wasn't able to do any
lind of work at all She was badly
,un down and very thin and weak and
about Month before she started on
Ianlac she got so she couldn't sleep.
"a friend advised her take Tanlac
and honestly, wouldn't see her back
IN the same condition she was in before
taking that medicine for any amount of
money that could be offered. She got
better before she finished her first bot
tie and nothing she has eaten in several
weeks has troubled her in the least. She
has taken three bottles and saws it's
been many day since she felt as we'll
as she does now. The headaches and
nervousness have disappeared, she sleeps
fine, enjoys her meals and works and
never complains of any trouble at all.
Ianlac has certainly proven its worth
IN my Wife's case and we. think it's
without an equal" TanIac is sold bv

Old people with weakened blood and

weak vegetable preparations and a
Preparation containing alcohol is as apt
TO harm as do good, for alcohol has a
bad effect upon the kidneys which

This is why old people especially get

Raleigh has been made
that the new order Of the Food Admin.
istration forbidding the sale of -four
except in combination with cereal sub
stitutes imposes some Inconvenience
and in some instances even some little
hardship upon farmers who have their
. own corn ground into meal. Even
these farmers must purchase an equa!
amount of corn meal or some other
cereal substitute along with his flour
There is no restriction, however, which
will prevent this farmer from sellins
his corn meal to the retailer even
though he buys back a part or all OF
this meal
It is evident that no exception car
be made for the benefit even of this
class because a retailer must pu1-
chase from one source or another {
pound of cereal subs flutes for ever
pound of -four he purchases and an
exception that altered this requirement
would lead to endless confusion anc
would very largely nullify the entir=
effects Of the Food Administration
order.

Mrs. Philip Moore


Mrs. Philip Moore. great campaign Of
patriotic education which the seeur.
ity League is conducting throughout
the country under the direction OF
this committees:
A tremendous responsibility is
placed upon the women OF the United
States. The thing we need today is
inspiration. Our obligation is just as
great as II the war were on our own
borders or on the shores OF the Mis-.
slssippi, When this inspiration and
obligation are brought home, women
can do more than men to bring condi.
tons to the people.
The resources of the country are
more definitely needed in war than IN
peace, and women can do more than
any other force to conserve these re-
sources The American people have
much to learn, and this lesson is need.
I'd to teach them to be less wasteful
and more alive to industrial eondi-
lions. The laisseEfalre sort of living
is not good patriotism, and the hour
has come upon which we may look
back with appreciation. the hour
which made us more thoughtful Of
mankind, less self conferred.
What England Did.
In England it is estimated that $780,.
600 women have gone out to work
who did not do so before the war.
The number of women who have been
substituted for men in industries, eK.
Guiding all government establish.
ments, are $4,000 There are 1885,
900 women employed in government
works, including arsenals, dockyards
md national shell filing and projec-
tile factories; $4,000 are engaged In
agricultural pursuits, end $4,000 IL
transportation.
It is in the Industrial and econo:ni.
field that the world war will mark the
most Tar reaching transformation in
the condition Of women.
From the women of the country we
ask utmost loyalty to the declaration
that We are not In this struggle for
conquest, but that we follow the flag
to an assured victory OF the principles
Of democracy and humanity.
Those who are determined that this
shall be the last great war must learn
how to live and work together, even
as we desire all nations To do,
Preventive Duty.
a. "
Today women are rising to Q con.
iception more than personal. are see
ling through world eyes, realizing that
heir duty is not remedial only, huy
ialso preventive, IN the kind Of effort
which has been called preparedness
against the naturalization Of the
world"
No true woman can be content TO
live on the surface In these fatefuI
days. days that are to decide perhaps
for generations whether war or Law
shall govern the world.
She will throw all her influence TO-
ward the realization Il world unity.
"a league Of nations that shall insure
the peace Of the world.
