CLOTHING WANTED
FOR DESTITUTE Of
OCCUPIED COUNTRY
tBy Associated Press,

WASHINGTON, Sept. 1s.-Five
thousand tons of clothing for the des-
titute people OF occupied Belgium and
France is the object of campaign an
nounced today by the American Red
Cross for the week beginning next
Monday. The clothing drive of the
Red Cross last March brought in 5000
tons of garments and it is estimated
that at least as much more will be
required to. clothe the ten million
people in the occupied territory during
the coming winter.
AS in the previous campaign the
clothing will be collected by the chap
tiers of the Red Cross throughout the
United States. Every kind of durable
garment, for all ages and both sexes,
is urgently needed, but ball room
dresses, high heeled slippers, silk hats
and straw hats which were donated in
large quantities last year are not
wanted. In message asking the Red
Cross to undertake the work, Herbert
c. Hoover, now in Europe, says mil
lions of men, women and children are
facing suffering and disease, some OF
them death, for lack of clothing this
winter.
I'm the face of brutal coercion and
spiritual suffering they remain splen-
didly courageous" Mr.. Hoover cabled.
This courage challenges our charity.
Let us match the courage of Belgium
with the generosity of America"

Enjoy Food With Stuart's
DvSnenSia Tablets.

Most of us eat three times day and
often forget that each meal should be
disposed of in the stomach to make
room for the next. The failure of the
stomach to do this is called indigestion
or dyspepsia, with it's sour risings, gas.
rum blngs, pain, depression and the
feeling of STIFFNESS when breathing
is difficult.
The most effective remedy and the
most reliable one, because you can get
it at any drug store in the United States
or Canada, is Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
lets, at SO cents a box. Instead of de-
priving yourself of food or going on a
starvation diet simply keep on you
have and let these tablets straighten
out your stomach, digest the food and
keep you in the fight.-Adv.

DOCTOR SAID He

That many people die of consump-
ton that could have been saved from
death and been made well and happy
had their case been properly diam
nosed and treated in the beginning is
now a well recognized fact. Some are
treated for consumption who only
have indigestion while others who are
really In the first stage Of consump-
ton are treated for something else
until it is too late.
A good illustration Of what can be
done in these cases by scientific ex-
animation to find the real underlying
cause of the trouble, and then by
skilled treatment to remove that cause
Is furnished in the case Of Mr.. SwaZey,
