Washington. Americas destroyer
building program, already destined to
give the country more vessels OF this
kind than any Power in the world, Is

Corps of the navy also is to be IN

This, in part is the explanation OF the

Secretary of the Navy Daniels. Other

Our boys are defending this country
on the high seas and on the land. Our
own defense against common enemy
Is to keep the system clean by Kidding
the body Of the toxins, or poisons, which
are bred In the intestines. When you
feel tired, sleepy, headachy, when your
breath is offensive, or pimples appear
on the face and neck, 1t is time to recog-
nize the danger and protect your bodily
health by taking something for the liver
such as DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets.
The machinery of the body needs to
be Oiled kept in good condition, just as
the guns or machinery Of ship. Why
should a human person neglect his own
machinery more than that of his auto
mobile or his guns? Yet most people
do neglect themselves. Their tongue
has a dark brown color, skin sallow.
breath bad, yet they fail to see that
their machinery needs attention.
DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets have
been known for nearly half century.
They are made Of May-apple, leaves OF
aloe and jalap, made into tiny pellet
and coated with sugar. They are stand
ard and efficacious. You can obtain
them at any drug store in Walls for
twenty-five cents. Ask for DR.. Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets-and get no other!

WOMEN SUFFERERS may
NEED SWAMP-ROOT

Thousands upon thousands of women
have kidney and bladder trouble and
never suspect it.
Women's complaints often prove to be
nothing else but kidney trouble, or the
result of kidney or bladder disease.
If the kidneys are not in healthy
condition, they may cause the other or
gans to become diseased.
Pain in the back, headache, loss OF am
bition, nervousness, are often times symp-
toms of kidney trouble.
Don't delay starting treatment: DR..
Kilmers' Swamp Root, physicians pre-
scription, obtained at any drug store, may
be Just the remedy needed to overcome
such conditions.
Get medium or large size bottle i'm
mediately from any drug store.

Washington.--Every striking ship
yard worker is back at work on both
the Atlantic and Pacific coasts, says
the Shipbuilding Labor Adjustment
Board. Reports showed that the
men had returned in most instances.
Unanimous agreements to subscribe to
the Adjustment Boards Delaware
wage decision was voted by the car
penters of Baltimore, it was reported
to the board here, and confidential re-
ports from the boards agents in other
districts affected show generally that
the strikers, following publication OF
President Wilson's telegram to Will
liam l.. Hutchinson, head of the carpen-
tiers, are anxious to prove their pa
triotism by joining in the adjustment
agreement signed by the other ship
yard crafts.
A telegram was received from the
boards agent at Olympia, Wash, re-
porting that the strike at the Sloane
Shipbuilding Company's yard had
been settled. Approximately 300
caukers there, members Of the same
brotherhood that struck. on the At
lantic Coast, had gone out previously
in dispute over the closed shop
principle. A new management OF the
yard has been established.
All minor quarrels the board is con-
fident of settling satisfactorily in the
general adjustment. The action OF
the Baltimore carpenters in accept
ing the extension of the Delaware
wage decision to the Baltimore dis
trict is regarded as having gone far
in composing the differences with the
Carpenters Brotherhood. With the
agreement of the locals OF the BROTH
erhood there and in the entire Della
ware district, embracing more than
60 per cent of all the shipbuilding on
the Atlantic Coast, it is not expected
that there will be any further labor
fiareups in the shipyards.

Slippery Iron Floors.

The ironwork plates Of many fac
tory floors are apt to become slippery
and unsafe, and to obviate this pow
dered sal ammoniac is used as cor
roding agent. A small quantity is
mixed thoroughly with large quanti-
ty of fine sand, and this mixture Is
sprinkled over the floor SO that all
parts are covered. The surface is
damped with watering can and left
to lie over weekend, or even over
night. The sand is then swept up
and the rust coating formed by the
treatment is found to last for several
weeks, after which the process is re-
peated.

Electric Time Service.

A New York state electric light and
power company has devised new cleo
trio clock system by which it can sup
DIV an electric time service to- any OF
it's customers. An inexpensive electric
clock which can be connected by a
flexible cord to any lighting socket is
supplied, and all these clocks are auto
matically synchronized with an electric
clock at the central station, which
keeps them on the exact time. The
householder can thus eliminate the la
bor of winding and setting his clock
and is assured Of the correct time at
any hour.

times. At each beat 1t sends four

run your legs and other parts of your
