Sensible Talk
on Call Stones
Doctors Have Found Solvent
Which Makes Many Gall
Stone Operations Unneces-
SarV.

Whenever a person becomes the
victim of gall stones, with its accom-
panying symptoms of cramps, coloc,
yellow, sallow skin, and sick stomach.
the first thing the physician generally
does is to advise an operation, with
it's attending terrors. If the opera ton
is successful the patient may have re-
lief, but might still have a condition
in the system which starts gall stone
formation again.
Now the Interstate Doctors, those
expert medical specialists who have
their Richmond offices on the second
floor of the Starr Building, corner of
Tenth and Main, over the Starr Piano
store, have announced that they have
a medical solvent which in many
cases makes an operation unneces-
sary. They have used the gall stone
solvent on hundreds of cases with
sta rtling results.
Mrs. Belle Parker, who lives at 120
South Kinney street, Muncie, Ind,
tells of her relief in public letter:
"Muncie, Ind, Nov. %, 1916.
ITO the Interstate Doctors:
II want to in this way express my
everlasting gratitude to you for what
you have done for me. You have
saved me from the operating table.
and more, you have saved my life. I
have been suffering untold agony
from gall stones for the past five or
six years. Most of the time unable to
work-sick at the stomach all the
time and paroXysms of pain that could
only be relieved by calling a doctor
and taking hypodermic of morphine.
was constantly under doctors care,
but they could give me no relief, only
from pain. They all said nothing but
an operation would save me. l finally
went to your office. November 1, 1916,
vomiting all the time. My eyeballs
and skin were fairly green in color.
Your physician examined me and my
temperature was 103. My condition
was so grave he wouldn't take my
ca Sc then, but gave me prescription
for my fever, and told me if l got my
fever down and nausea down to come
back and he would see what he could
do for me. 1 went back November Z.
The prescription did fine and l put
myself under his care for a regular
treatment, and in less than week my
skin began to clear up-sickness and
pain left altogether, and now after
two weeks treatment 1 have no
trouble in any way. Skin and eye
balls cleared up-taking on flesh and
feel good as a 16-yearold and worked
hard all last week-the first hard
work l had been able to do for three
You are certainly fine on
gall stones, and with your trea tment,
operations are not necessary.

cause Of the dirt and ashes. The supply of an
thracite for this section is so limited that it is
negligible. Make up your mind now that you'll
have to burn soft coal, and buy the bituminous
product while it is on the market.
The soldiers in the trenches cannot select the
kind and quality of coal they want They take
anything that comes to hand, and if there is no
fuel they freeze cheerfully. There's no reason
why you should believe yourself better than the
soldier. If he is cheerful under adverse condi-
tions, why cannot you put up with soft coal for a
season or two?

Give Your Old Rubber to the Red Cross

Perhaps citizens are not taking seriously the
effort of the Red Cross to collect rubber articles.
That may account for the slow manner in which
the pile in the Eks' yard on North Eighth street
is growing.
The money made by the sale of the rubber
will be used by the Richmond branch of the Red
Cross. Every one knows about the great work
which this organization is carrying on.
Make a careful inspection of your house and
then bring the old rubber articles that are of no
earthly use to you to the Red Cross pile. Ger
tainy no one can complain Of the work involved
in carrying the old rubber articles to the Elks'
yard

Getting Along Without Luxuries

Many of us have become so deeply enamored
of luxures that we look upon them as necessities,
believing that 1--WE cannot get along without
them" Luxuries in profusion surround us and
we indulge in them so freely that it is hard to
realize that they are not necessaries.
The war has curbed our use of luxuries slight
ly, but not in such degree that hardship has
been worked on us. In fact, few Of us have been
forced to forego many Of the non-essentials.
The worst that has happened is curtailment of
our unbridled indulgence in them.
The Philadelphia Evening Telegraph in dis
cussion Of luxuries calls to our mind many things
which few decades ago were unknown and which
today are almost necessities in strict sense of
the word 1t cites some of the luxuries that were
unknown to men who accomplished great things.
The list follows:
Shakespeare never drank cup of tea, never
tasted coffee, never slipped glass of cocoa, never
ate potato and never smoked cigar Yet he
managed to lead variegated life and write plays
that you still 60 to see.
Napoleon who died ninety seven years ago,
never saw steamboat nor railroad train, nor
even gas light, but he ruled all Europe.
Lincoln never saw an electric light nor talked
through telephone, but he freed million slaves
I doubt of William Mckinley ever rode in
motor car. Certainly u S. Grant never knew of
the wireless. They both rose to fame and went
to the White House.
The finest piece of known architecture on
earth was erected at Athens by men who never
saw newspaper.
st. Peters Cathedral was the product of
Michael Angeles brain, but he never read a book
that came from printing press me-
chanically typed page.
Raphael painted his immortal Madonnas, but
he never ate a corn muffin.
Cleopatra never wore velvet gown, and even
if Helen of Troy was so beautiful that she caused
10-year war, she never owned a pair of leather
shoes.
George Eliot never beheld movie, but she
wrote adam Bede," which is somewhat more
important thing to have done.

lived in the world not five Of them contributed

The following reminders are kept in stock all
of the time: Build more 'silos. Keep on buying
thrift stamps. Write cheerful and heartening
letters to soldier boys away from home. Make
careful use of homegrown and perishable pro-
ducts so as to release the staple food stuffs of
condensed bulk for shipment abroad. Do not
waste or throw away any materials which have
value. Put into your war work the willing and
resolute spirit of our soldiers at the front.
Indiana has about 200 companies of civilian
soldiers known as Liberty Guards A new service
has been assigned to them. They are asked to in
struct young men registered for the selective
draft and awaiting call. Gen. Crowder wants the
men selected by the government to enter the
service willing, loyal, intelligent, clean and
sober" The boards of instruction have been
asked to get acquainted with the registrants in
class l and help them to understand why we are
at war, what we are fighting for and how they
can best prepare themselves for effective service.
1t is believed that the Liberty Guards already in
military training can be great help to the boards
of instruction by taking hold of the prospective
soldiers and giving them useful information and
patriotic pep.
