Il Is Time To Make
Mentho-Laxene Syrup
ANYONE Can Make a Full Pint Of
Laxative, Curative Cold and
Cough Medicine chesply at
Home.

Everybody is subject to colds and
coughs at this season. Be prepared!
Have on hand full pint of Mentho-
Laxene syrup that checks and aborts
colds, relieves coughing and gradually
brings permanent relief. The full and
best benefits are derived if you begin
taking it at the very outset of cold
or cough because you can check or
abort the cold-and save many hours
of distress and perhaps ward off pneu-
monia and other serious results of a
neglected cold.
Mentho-Laxene is pure, contains no
opiates or narcotics. 1t is pleasant,
penetrating, healing and curative be-
yond any preparation you can BUY
ready made. Full directions and guar
antee are with every bottle of Mentho-
Laxene. 1t will more than please you,
or the Blackburn Products Co., Dayton,
Ohio, will refund your money.
Hundreds of thousands of bottles of
Mentho-Laxene have been sold and not
over fifty people have wanted their
money back. That tells how good
it is.-Adv.

Immediately made black, brown OF
light brown, whichever shade you de-
sire, by the use of the following rem
edy that you can make at home:
Merely get small box of Orlex
powder at any drug store. 1t costs

DETROIT, Mich, Oct. 23.-An illus
tration of the intensive efforts being
made in Great Lakes shipbuilding
yards to help win the war, is afforded
in the construction of the $500 ton
freighter Crawl Keys" 1t was the
Crawl Keys" that, according to Of
ficials of the Great Lakes Engineering
Works here established two new
worlds records in ship construction.
The first record was the launching
Of the vessel 112 working days after
her keel was laid; the second was the
completion in every detail of the best
exactly 20 working days of eight hours
each, from the time work was begun.
When the Crawl Keys" left the ways
for her initial plunge into the water
the hull was 95 percent complete and
ready for the installation of engines
and boilers.
1t had been planned to build the
ship in twenty days, and with this end
in view, a schedule had been arranged
divided into periods of four days each.
The schedule provided the accomplish
ment of q stated amount of work in
each four-day period.
The workers in the yard at Ecorse,
near here, entered into the spirit of
the project with vim, and at the
end of the first four-day period, the
work accomplished was well ahead of
the schedule.
The first day the keel, keels on
floors and forepeak bulkhead were put
in place; the second day saw the peak
bulkhead margin and rider in position
and work begun on the tank top. A
start also was made on the driving of
the 100000 rivets required to hold the
side plates. The after framing, coal
bunkers and coal chutes were COM
pleted the third day, and at the end
of the fourth day, or 80 working hours
after the work started, the ship was
partly framed with the shell plating
far advanced.
All bulkheads were in ana the franz

The sixth day was devoted to work
on deck beams and on the sheel and
tank tops.

BEHIND THE AMERICAN LINES
IN FRANCE, Oct. 23.-Seven hundred
French women are employed in the
American Camouflage station here
making nets to screen from observa-
ton American batteries and machine
gun sections. There was a burst OF
patriotic song as The Associated Press
correspondent entered the large build
ing where they work, for many OF
them sing as they sew.
The screening of artillery is the
most important work Of camouf1age,
as 1t Is the main reliance in deceiving
the aerial observer and camera and
in preventing the enemy from locating
our batteries.
For this purpose huge camoufiage
nets are provided, of wire and flsh-net.
which cover the guns like a great
horizontal tent. In the netting are
tied lunches of green burlap, of the
same color as the surrounding grass
or foliage. And thus viewed from
above, the overhanging green net
merges the battery into the landscape
of trees and turf.
Hundreds of these nets were being
made by the women workers. The rs
millimeter gun takes an overhanging
net 30 feet square, the 1856 millimeter
gun has 81 foot net, and the Ameri-
can mach. e gun gets an 10 foot net.
The nets are graded in ten colors of
green and earth-brown, so that the
shield may have the exact tint of the
surrounding trees. The nets are
shipped to the front in huge bundles,
one net for each gun.
1t has been a problem to get the

Catholic Priest Serves
in Army as Private

PARIS, Oct. g. TO Rev. Father
Alphonse Biskup, curate of Marie Celle
Church, Chicago, has fallen the honor
of being probably the first Catholic
priest from the United States to serve
in the ranks of the Allies as private.
The Rev Father Biskup is now "Prf
vate" Biskup of the Czecho-Slovak
Legion and has taken part in several
engagements with the boche.
When the United States entered the
war the Rev. Father Biskup tried to
enlist in the United States army as a
regular chaplain and when he failed in
that effort he enrolled as a volunteer
with the Knights of Columbus and
landed in France as volunteer chap
lain. AS his parents are of Czech ma
tivity, although American citizens, he
tried to get in the CZecho-Slovak Leg
ion here but found he could not do
so as a Knights of Columbus chaplain
because the Czechs are serving as
part of the French forces. He obtain
ed permission from the Knights to en-
list in the Czech Legion and at once
did so.
Private" Biskup, when he visited
the headquarters of the Knights OF
Columbus in this city the other day
to obtain supplies TO the men of his
regiment, told of the joy with which
the Czecho-Slovaks received the news
that the United States had recognized
their independence. 1T gave those
men new spirit. l have been with
them in-several engagements and they
have proved fine fighters, but they
are going to be even better now, for
they are fighting for something very
dear to all men of the Czech race" he
said.

French Women Employed in
American Camouflage Station

700 women required for this deft work
on the nets, and one of the chief
means of drawing them Is Red Cross
home for the babies of the married
women, and Y. NJ. G.. A. kitchen
which gives them good meal for 60
centimes (12 cents) Camouflage gar
lands are also made by the women.
These garlands of green burlap arc
strung between the trees, in order to
break lines and diffuse edges 50 that
the location Of convoy or battery
will not show on an aerial photograph.
In the carpenter shop huge frames
for green umbrellas were being made
airy sun-shode, and camouflage a ma
chine gun. In the blacksmith shop the
men were turning out steel cabins
which are sunk below the ground, for
an observer. They have front of bull
let-proof steel and are about as strong
as small safe. In one of these an
observer is safe in the midst of a
shower of shrapnel.
Laying on paint much as scrub
woman Yields mop, an artist was
walking about on a gigantic CAM
outage screen for an airplane hangar.
The great piece of painting was spread
on field and vocered an area of 1900
square yards. The artist was using
a brush as big as a broom.
"Camouflage is making a constant
battle against the aerial camera" said
the escort, "for with photographs made
from airplanes the enemy gets COM
plete view of our positions unless they
