A Bilious Attack.

When you have bilious attack
your liver fails to perform it's func-
tions. You become constipated. The
food you eat ferments in your
stomach instead of digesting. This
inhames the stomach and causes
nausea, vomiting and terrible head
ache. Take three Of Chambe rlain's
Tablets. They will tone up your
liver, clean out your stomach and
you will soon be as well as ever. They
only cost a quarter Adv.

This was the statement made today
by Professor Alfred E. Koenig, himsel.
Of German nativity, who has just re
turned from speaking tour for the
northern division of the Red Cross. "
Six months ago Professor KOenig
who is an Instructor In German at the
University of Minnesota, first begar
speaking for the Red Cross and made
q tour of Minnesota, Montana, NORTH
and South Dakota, the states of the
northern Red Cross division.
ion this trip, Professor KOenig made
i special effort tovisit communities
where the population was mostly Of
German or German Russian extraction
On this first trip in many places hi
reception was anything but cordial
Many of his auditors had relatives II
the German army. They did not und
erstand CONSUMPTION or liberty bonds
and were, therefore, against them. \
1. Practically all OF Professor Koenig's
talks were made In German He told
his listeners Of the Red Cross and OF
the noble motives Of humanity that
had led America into the war.
Recently he undertook second tour
of the same territory covered on his
firts trip. His reception everywhere
was enthusiastic. Men who before
were rabidly PROC German in their
speech are now buying Liberty bonds
and supporting the Red Cross, he
said. Their sons are In the service
"They never were disloyal," declar
ed Professor Koenig. "They just did
not know what it was about in the
first place The average farmer Of
German birth, particularly II he lives

a paper written in English. You can
publish tons OF educational matter In

You must speak his language to reach
him.

simple language as possible. For in
stance in describing the emblem OF the
Red Cross explained that the red IN
the cross stood for love, the principle
upon which the great organization TOT

ground explained was for purity ana
cleanliness. Then l told why we naa
entered the war, explaining President

messages outlining the policy OF the
United States in this war. Tney nst'

1T was natural that at first they
should have dreaded a war with their
native land, bound as they were py
ties of kinship and memory. but
when they understood the Prussian
oppression from which they them
selves had fed, they were quick to
eyince their entire loyalty"
