 q had scfatic rheumatism for two years, and tried every medicine offered for rheumatism. Tried many doctors was treated at one of the best known southern sanatoriums, and if 1 i'm proved any. I did mot realize it. I, am a conductor on the Central of Georgia Railroad and had secured a, pass to Hot Springs. Ark, to take treatment. About that time I saw; Rheufna adver : tised and concluded to try it. I abandoned my trip, took, three bottles, and now feel as well as ever. am going to make everybody I see who has rheufnatism try 1t. would not take hundred thousand dollars for what Rheuma has done for me. I'would rather be dead than live as was before the use of Rheuma."s

TO ENLIST MEN FOR
 FARM LABOR RESERVE
Every Community Will Be. Expected
 to Raise Large Quota.

The enlistment of men in an Elmer : .gency Farm Labor Reserve will begin this month : in Connecticut under the direcesAn of the United States Pubic Service Reserve. Each, community in the state win be expected to raise a large quota ofgmen who will agree to do part time work on the farm, in or der to help the farmers and the coun- try in increasing the food produc- ton. x
 This campaign supplements the big drive for the rekular farm labor and Boys Working Reserve. By means of the new reserve farmers are assured that they have the backing of com r1unities in their patriotic effort to increase i.their; crops. Special effort will be made to interest men who are familiar with farm work but are now engaged in other occupations.
 : National authorities recognize that
 in asking the farmer to increase his
 planting provision must be made to
 secure help to harvest the : larger
 crops. In the plans for the forma- ton of this reserve, it is intended to enlist men who can give from one to two days a week for work on farms III. tl3elr sHef Shbofho0Q up 10 CAOSesRiio 70 can devote a month or more to farm work. It is felt that college stu dents, professional men, clerks and other employees who have vacations should be willing to this year spend them in healthful productive work or the farms.
 Business men and their clerks ir
 stores or banks and shop hands are recording their willingness to spend two or three days each week at farm work. According to the plans foi ] the campaign, the responsibility vii be placed on each comnI1nitv to pro- vide the farmers in the outlying dis tricts with adequate help. For that
 reason. the campaign will be conduct. ] ed on l local basis. Although priIn a7-ify patriotic service, those who en, roll in the reserve will in many case:
 be enabled to secure, fair renuner ation for their iabors. With the fat' Eof the war depending heavily on th' question of increased food production it is hoped that adequate farm hell l will De secured for the farmers at thu l earliest possible date.

AIkali In Soap
 Bad For the Hair

Soap should be used very carefully. if you want to keep your hair looking it's best. Most soaps and prepared shampoos contain too much alkalL This dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and ruins it.
 The best thing for steady use is just ordinary mulsifed cocoanut oil (which lis pure and greaseless), and is better than the most expensive soap or any thing else you can use.
 One or two teaspoonfuls will cleanse the hair and scalp thoroughly. Simply moisten the hair with water and rub 1t in It makes an abundance of rich, creamy father, which rinses out easily, removing every particle of dust, dirt, dandruf and excessive oil The hair dries quickly and evenly, and it leaves the scalp soft, and the hair fine and silky, bright, lustrous. fluffy and easy to manage.
 You can get mulsiied cocoanut of at any pharmacy it's very cheap, and few ounces will supply every member of the family for months.
