A Good Friend.

A good friend stands by you when

Doan's Kidney Pills have stood the
test. J. Hendley, photographer, OF
Main Street, Ironton, endorsed Doan's

firms the story. Could you ask for
more convincing testimony?
II was feeling run down and had
sharp twinges and weakness across

Hendley. "My kidneys often acted
i%rregularly. When l heard about
Doan's Kidney Pills, l made up my
mind to try them and got a supply
at the Arcadia Valley Drug Co. They
made a wonderful Improvement anc

Mr.. Hendley gave the above abov'
statement In December, 1906, and or

New Flour Regulations.

min~istration has been changed and
after September LIST -four may be
bought by consumers with substitutes
in the ratio of four pounds OF ordin'
ary wheat -four to one pound Of sub
stitutes at the mill and will be known
as Victory Flour.
The recent careful survey OF the
Food Administration OF the United
States, France, England and Italy, Of
the food resources Of the 220 million
people fighting against Germany
show that to maintain enough supplie'
and necessary reserves against dis
a,ter, there must be maintained In 81

bread of the Allies shall contain 90 ,
per cent of other grains than wheat,
and it is only just that We should bear
our share in this saving and that our
bread, at least, should be universal
with those who are suffering more
greatly from the war than ourselves.
Distribution and transportation con-
ditions in the United States render it
necessary to rely largely on the vol
untary action Of our homes to enforce
this mixture. The "Victory Breadn
so made is wholesome and there is no
difficulty in preparation.
For this purpose regulations have
been issued by the United States Food
Administration effective September

MY Dear Mother--I am terribly sor-

said before we never know, and
please, mother, don't think there ia
anything wrong II you don't hear for
there are lots OF things which could
happen to mail going that far; any
way, you know l always could get
around pretty lively when any one
was after me. DO you remember tn
time you we're after me with q boart
and l jumped the fence with one o

 ON THE FRENCH FRONT, May 25. -(By the Associated Press.,-Except for heavy artillery firing south of the river Somme in the region of Nor euil and Ailly-SurNOye. where Gen. eral Won Hutier's strong army faces the entente allies, relative calm marked every section of the front up to a late hour last night. There has been great activity in the last few days in the sector south of the Somme Enemy troops made a num- Der of raids, but all were repelled wit heavy losses to the Germans. The latest attempt of the Teutons was made early yesterday morning at Mesnil-St. Georges. to the west of Momtdidier This also was repulsed.
 The German airmen have been re- markably modest of late in the neighborhood of the battlefront, where they leave the skies almost en- tirely to the allied aviators. When the German airmen see an entente machine approaching. the immediate ly start homeward. declining a com bat The German night bombing ma chimes. however. are extremely busy. They have 'bdsn attacking railroad depots and functions but without do ing great damage.
 It is assumed the Germans either are unable to replace easily their re- cent enormous losses in airplanes and pilots or they are trying out i'm proved machines with which they hope to surprise the entente allies when the offensive begins. They will meet a warm reception. as the en- tente aviators are full of confidence in their superiority.

 WASHINGTON. May 25.-The war department today issued a warning 10 all youths attaining the ages of 21 on or before June that they must present themselves for registration on that day. No excuses will be tOl- erated, the department said. except when the person is actually in the military service
 The departments warning says:
 Draft officials wish it clearly un- derstoOd that no person who has at- tained the age of 2l since June .. 1917, or who will attain that age on or before June ,. is excused from regis tration on June 3. unless on that date he is an actual and active member Of the military or naval service. Per sons not subject to registration on ac- count of being in the military or na- val service become subject to regis tratiOn and are required to register immediately upon leaving such mill tary or naval servic Any such per son discharged after June must reg ister immediately after their dis charge"
 Provost Marshal General CrOwder urging young men to study the draft regulations today issued the follow ing statement:
 'It should be clearly understood that registration is a public duty. T. is distinct from seleotive service. in that it is merely preliminary tO the latter process of selection For fail ure to perform their duty congress has provided a penalty of imprisOn- ment for one year. Furthermore. such failure may result in the loss of valuable right and privileges and immediate induction into military service.
 'NO delinquent can be excused for not registering on the ground that he forgot or did not realize his duty. The burden is on him and on him alone. to perform that duty. and he alone is responsible"
