AFTER EFFECTS
 OF MEASLES
Mother, Who Lives in Tennessee Mountains Where Black Draught Is Relied On in Many Troubles,
 Says It Made Her Boy
 Sound and Well.

Coal Creek, Tenn.-Up in the noun tains, quite some distance from town, lives Mrs. U. S. Fritts, who relates her experience with Thedford's Black Draught as follows:
 My little boy, James, took sick with diarrhea, about five years ago, and was badly swollen. He had the measles and this wss. no doubt an after-effect I made him well by giv- ing him Thedford's Black-Draught. gave it to him three times a day for month. I firmly believe it saved his life.
 We always keep Black-Draught in our house. It is our doctor. Always easy to get and prompt in giving re- lief.
 A small pinch of Black-Draught after each meal and at bed time for headache, stomach and liver trouble, and we are well the next morning.
 It certainly works wonders some- times and saves no end of trouble, re- lieves pain, and there is no need for another doctor.
 I have recommended Black -Draught to all my neighbors and will continue to recommend it."
 Thedford's Black-Draught is a pure, vegetable herb liver medicine, acting gently, yet promptly, on liver and bow els.
 Thousands of people, everywhere, have found it to relieve constipation, Indigestion, biliousness and many similar disorders.
 Try BlackDraught. Your druggist sells it.-Adv.

With the American Army in France. After a terrific artillery preparation large numbers of the enemy crossed No Mans Land on the extreme right of the American sector northwest of Toul. Apparently the purpose of the raid was quickly accomplished and only comparatively small number entered our lines. Permission has not been given to mention the number of casualties.
 This raid, like most of the others carried out all the way from the sea to Switzerland was designed to gath CT information by taking prisoners.
 East of Luneville our patrols have explored part of the German trench, which our artillery forced the. enemy to abandon. Patrols proceeded later ally until they established contact with the Germans. Our reconnais- sance and wire patrols found snipers' posts. listening posts and nests from which machine guns had been firing on our lines. The artillery attended to all these posts. The German posi- tions have been so uncomfortable al several places that they now are try ing to regain foothold by connecting shell holes. Our troops have been subjected to an extraordinarily heavy artillery fire for the last 24 hours. More than 240 shells, which made era ters 20 feet deep and 30 feet in diam eter. fell in one T1ection of the line. In another section batteries have been shelled heavily. More gas shells have fallen in both the Foul and Luneyille sectors. but the larger number in the former

DISCONTINUE SENDING FOOD.

The Council of National De-
Tense desires to inform the peo-
pie of the country that abundont
food is supplied to the soldiers,
and sailors i'm the camps and in
the environments, and that the
sending of food to these men by
their friends and families is not
in any respect necessary; that the
aggregate quantity of food thus
privately sent is enormous, and
that much OF it, having been con-
veyed long distances in heated ex-
press or mail cars is more or less
spoiled, and consequently injur-
ious to the health of the men.
Therefore, in the interest of the
conservation of food, and also the
health of the men, the Council of
National Defense requests the
public to discontinue the sending
of foodstqffs to the camps.
