The proper food for one man
may be all wrong for another. Ev-
cry one should adopt diet suited
to his age and occupation. Those
who have weak stomachs needs to
be especially careful and should
eat slowly and masticate their
food thoroughly. It is also i'm
portant that they keep their
bowels regular. When they be-
come constipated or when they
feel dull and stupid after eating,
they should take Chamberlain 3
Tablets to strengthen the stomach
and move the bowels. They are

Mr.. Balzer, proprietor of the Bal
ger drug store feels that he was plac-
ed in wrong light by an article
which was published in the Springfield
Times, criticising bin for carrying an
advertisement of a German remedy.
The ad referred to is one that is run
by the Green Manufacturing Co., an
American patent medicine company,
which furnishes the copy and pays the
bills. His name appears in the ad,
because he handles some of their rem
edies. The company manufactures
numerous remedies, and among them
is Boschee's German Cough Syrup. !"
He has none of this remedy in his
store. but does carry another remedy,
called GREEN'S August Flower. 1t is
customary for these patent medicine
companies, when they sell bill of
goods to druggist, to place an ad in
a local paper, which is carried over
the druggists name. In this case
the company advertised not only the
remedy bought by Mr.. Balzer, but
also other remedies that they make,
and samong them the cough syrup.
MIR. Balzer. while of German descent,
does not even speak the German Ian
guage and is not tainted with pro-
GermRnism ia the least.

Dear Mr.. Bliss:
I have been in camp here
since last Monday morning and like it
first rate. Naturally one has to &C.
custom himself to soldiers life, but
with the zeal that you want to get
there one can soon suit himself ac-
cording to circumstances.
We are here with about 700 grad
uate veterinarians from all ov er the
country and most of them are. 1913
graduates. We are put thru regu-
lar private's drill here with the ex-
ceptions Of using any weapons.
: A dental corps Of nearly as many
men is situated right next to our bar
racke, all getting the same as we do
excepting riding horseback, which is
only done by the cavalry and veterin-
arian privates. OF course officers
ride if their work requires it.
We rise at s 80 q. M, have roll
call followed by little caliethenic
exercise, and are dismissed until z 80,
then we drill until 10 80 or ride, and
again dismissed until p. M, after
which we drill some more until 3 80,
which completes our days work un-
less we have retreat at p. M, when
the flag is being lowered.
expect to be sdoing this for at
least two or three months, after that
we may be considered to take an ex-
animation which if passed entities us
to a commission of second lieutenant.
We expect then to be kept four to six
weeks longer for more intricate train
ing, and consecutively consigned to
various parts of the U. S. or abroad.

Billy Louise did not give Ward much
opportunity for argument. He was too
awkward with his crutches to keep up

the move most of the time.
When she had helped Ward upon
BlUe-and that was not easy, either,
considering that he only had one leg
fit to stand On-and had gone to the
cabin for her bag of nuggets and
Wards roll of money which he had for
gotten, and had exhausted every other
excuse for delay, she picked up Rat

his mane and took hold of the Stirrup
as nonchalantly as If she were mount

announced breathlessly, when the first

BAN ON OLIVE OIL EXPORTS
Royal Order Calls Halt on Shipments
Except Essentials, From Spain
to United States.

Olive oil exports from Spain, Of
which large quantities formerly were
shipped both directly and via France
and Italy to the United States and
other foreign markets, from Barcelona
and Seville, are prohibited by recent
royal order, states commerce reports.
In southern Spain and in the region
of Catalonia. the olive oil industry has
been an important source of revenue
to the growers who export to foreign
refineries, whence the oil was often
shipped to the United States, as of
really non-Spanish production. Re-
Gently the direct exports of the COM
modify from Spain to the United States
have increased considerably with the
development of the American taste for
the oil produced in Spain.
There Is no embargo on exports OF
essential oils such as pennyrOyal, rose
mary, sage. thyme and lavender, the
Spanish production of which is large
ly destined for foreign markets, and
shipment of which is made direct from
Spain to the United States, France,
and elsewhere. These oils are pro-
duced especially in the regions of Muir
cia and Malaga, where many medical
herbs are grown for domestic con-
sumption and export. AS cOmpara-
lively little use is made in Spain OF
several oils derived from the plants
mentioned and other Oil-prOducing
herbs, the local market is limited; but
the industry may be developed indeh.
nitely in view of the favorable cli'
matte conditions of those sections OF
Spain where the plants flourish. In
1915 the declared exports of essential
oils from Malaga to the United States
were valued at $176,1G4; those from
Almeria, Mt $21,920 and those from
Barcelona, at $13,22O.

Very Larae Nov Family.

MOy Hee, proprietor of chop suey
restaurant in st. Paul, recently re.
turned from a seven months soiourn
in China, relates an exchange, where
he visited his aged mother and 275,000
relatives, all members of the great
Moy family. at Sun Ming in the prov
ince Of Canton. While he was there
MOy's son was married and Moy en-.
tertained 235 guests at a big hotel
there for three days, spending $4,000
for entertainment. From inquiries
made at Sun Ming Moy learned that
his 275,000 relatives were not prop
erly provided with educational facili-
ties. While many Of them were
wealthy, n large number could not af-
ford the SO year u child for educa-
ton. MOy has undertaken to raise
the sum Of 100000 to build schools
and employ teachers in that vicinity.
He collected some of the fund from
rich Chinese members of the Moy fam
lily, and Moy Back Hin, Chinese consul
at Portland, Ore, contributed $4,000
to the fund.

PLAYING the Man.

No. matter what part he may be
playing in the strenuous game Of life
as it is presented today, the brother
hood man, above all others, must play
the man. These are times when the
best that is in us must be given to
carry on" and the race run with
steadfaStness and manly purpose.
AS Robert l.. Stevenson so beautifully
puts it: whether we regard life as a
line leading to dead wall-a mere
bags end, as the French say-Or
whether we think of it as vestibule
or gymnasium, where we wait our turn
and prepare our facilities for some
more noble destiny; whether we thun-
der in a pulpit or pule in little esthetiC
poetry books about its vanity and brew
ity, whether we look justly for years
of health and vigOr, or are about to
mount into a bath chair, as step to-
wards the heafse; in each and all of
these views and situations there is but
one conclusion possible; that q man
should stop his ears against paraly-
sing terror and run the race that is
set before him with single mind"
