Meet Rheumatic Attack With
Famous Remedy

Be assured your Rheuma-
Itism will master you unless
you conquer it. This disease,
beginning its attack slowly
and with little notice from
its victim, gradually increases
in violence until the whole
system is involved. The pa
tent often becomes a wreck
or a cripple. 1t attacks in
various forms, Articular,
Muscular, and Inflammatory.
No part of the system is i'm
mune to its influence. The
pains attack every portion of
the body, and when the dis
ease gets a firm hold upon
the system. the patient be-
comes helpless.
But the origin of this most
painful of all diseases is in the
blood, and no amount of ex-
ternal treatment can over
come the trouble. Rubbing
with liniments and ointments
may suffice temporarily in
allaying the pains, but the
trouble is deep in the mus
cles, joints and ligaments,
and can be driven from the
system only through the use
of a medicine that will attack
the disease in all parts of the
body, and that is what S. S.
S. does.
S. S. S. being purely vege-
table, and containing not one
particle of mineral, is most
welcome to the stomach of
the Rheumatic sufferer who
has long been dosed with in
.effectual remedies, and who,

years this remedy has been

"SAvE EVERY GRAIN; 7"
APPEAL TO THRESHERS

With the wheat harvest already un-
der way in the southern part of the
state the United States Food Admin
istration in Ohio has issued a special
appeal for, careful threshing in the
handling of wheat in order that the
common losses from this operation
may be reduced TO the minimum.
The appeal of the Food Administra-
tiOn is as follows:
Everything should be made ready
for threshing beforehand, in order
that delays may not occur.
"To this end farmers are now urged
TO provide tight racks or
canvas for wagons hauling wheat
from the fields.
"See that all sacks and wagon boxes
are in condition to take the grain away
from the machine without loss.
"Prepare the place for the machine
10 set, before its arrival, by providing
canvas to spead over the ground, or
remove all stones, weeds, grass, ETC.,
in order that all shattered grain can
be readily saved.
"Provide the best coal you can Sc
cure for fuel. Wood is extremely dan
gerous, and threshermen are being in
structed not to use it except when
absolutely necessary.
"If unable to secure coal for thresh-
ing, farmers should report to the office
Of the Food Administration, Columbus,
where every possible assistance will be
given.
Thoroughly clean all bins and make
sure they are perfectly tight. Lack
Of elevator space or freight cars will
doubtless make it necessary to store
much of the grain temporarily.
Farmers may greatly help to solve
heir labor problems during the thresh-
Ing season, and at the same time
tighten the labor of the women by
forming threshing circles, and by all
belp, excepting the threshermen, car
cying their own dinners.

WOUNDED YANKEES

Produce Adds To Food Sup
ply And Gives Injured Men
Needed Exercise.

PARIS, June Correspondence
of The Associated Press Acres and
acres of gardens located near the
American base hospitals are now be-
ginning to bring forth their harvests
of vegetables. All were cultivated by
American wounded. cOnvalescents,
who attended to the growing of the
produce.
Not alone has the venture been one
of great economy for the hospitals.
The work of cultivation has been done
upon the prescriptions of the medical
surgeons so that q double purpose is
accomplished. The garden work pro.
vides relaxation for the men after
their strenuous times on the battle
front and their painful anxiety In the
hospital wards. The diversion acts
as recreative agency In bringing
back the men to normal mental and
physical state.
The gardens are worked entirely by
cOnvalescents. Not single dollar
has been spent for hired labor. The
army has undertaken cOmprehe MS
i've plan of army provisioning along
these lines. The American Red Cross
also is cooperating by the establish
ment of smaller plots in the centers
where convalescents are sent.

American Soldiers And Offic-

HEADQUARTERS AM ERICA AN
TROOPS WITH THE BRITISH
ARMY IN FRANCE. June 11--tCor-
respondence Of The Associated Press)
A purlioned goose was the cause of
so much trouble for few soldiers of
the American army recently that they
now consider that the bird would
have been cheap even at the high war
prices that prevail in these regions.
The complaint from the woman who
lost the goose was the only one re-
ceived at the headquarters of the di-
vision to which the men belonged; {;
she promptly received satisfaction in
the coin of the country and the men
were obliged to digest their feast in
the guard house while they reflected
upon the rules regarding foraging.'
"Of course there are worse things
a soldier can do than to swipe q
goose" said an officer of the division
in question, "but even that is more
than shall be permitted In this force.
We came over here to do laudable
thing and we are going to do II clean
ly. Whatever we draw from this coun
try Is going to be paid for In due
form and the few men in our ranks
who dare try any other system will
pay dearly for their experience"
Other units of the American army
in this zone have not had single
case of this kind. The men behave
even better than at home; they are
getting on splendidly with the inhabi
tants and with their allies. Guard
house cases are rare and are gen

The Federal Food Administration in
Ohio, cooperating with the Bureau Of
Dairy and Foods and the Bureau of
Markets and Marketing, and the State
Department of Agriculture and the
Agricultural Extension Service of Ohio
State University, has launched state
wide campaign to prevent traffic in
rotten eggs.
Fred c. Croxton, Federal Food Ad-
ministrator for Ohio has announced
The following regulations for dealers
and shippers: 1902
(1) All dealers in eggs, including
grocers and hucksters, who ship Or
sell to others than consumers are re-
quired to be licensed, Regardless Of the
volume Of business done
(2) Carlot shippers and jobbers
shall candle all eggs and buy only on
loss off basis. Ticket bearing date of
Gambling and license number, shall be
included in each case.
Careful and conservative estimates
made by the U. S. Food Administra-
tod show that for the past five years
during the period from June l to
October |, 25 per cent of all eggs were
total loss and 40 per cent were ma
terially deprecated in food value.
Because of this great waste of food,
and because of the great cost entailed
in using over-taxed transportation ia
.ilities in carrying food unfit for hu-
man consumption, the Food Admins
tration has made special appeal to
producers and retailers in eggs to
help eliminate this waste
