ARTILLERY BRIGADE
NEEDS COMMANDER

CAMP MEADE. Nd. Sept. 17.-Ar-
tillery officers of high rank are pass
ing through this camp now in large
numbers on the way back from
France, where some have been for
as long as a year. In a single day
as many as 100 were distributed to
camps where they are needed for the
organization OF the new artillery
units that will soon be blasting the
I way to Berlin.
As soon as a general OF artillery
passes this way Maj. Gen. Jesse Mel.
Carter, commander of the Lafayette
division, is likely to get "A commander
for the Eleventh artillery brigade.
This brigade is going forward with
its work without a general. No one
can blame a nigh artillery officer
from wishing to remain in France as
long as possible now that the real
Hun chase is on. It is almost A certainty
that some colonel will be promoted to
the rank of brigadier general and
sent here for this brigade.
AS big as this rescrvat tion Is, no
place has been found for safely firing
field artillery and unless some other
range can be found the artillerymen
may go to France without firing. This
is not such a serious matter In this
war many batteries have fired first
at the Huns. The officers require
training and those who have not had
IT in France will get it at special fir
ing schools. The men are already
getting experience in the handling of
the guns.

resorted to. Such possible action Is seen
in Garfeld's message to James Mat

Workers for District No. 9. notify Ing
him that miners will be held person
ally and strictly responsible
DR.. Garfield further added that dras-
tic action will be taken II It Is found
necessary.
Garfield said he had heard The strike
was the outcome OF a political fight
among two factions OF the union. He
said that he has no information as TO
the number Of men out, but that he un
derstood the strike was not general
and affects only some OF the mines.
But whether there are no more than
six men out" he said, they'll have to

BOLSHEV|K| AIDED
GERMANY IN 1917

Developments NJ the series OF secret
activities against the United States
and its allies by the Germancontrolled
Bolshevik government is the subject
OF the latest disclosures by the Com
mittee on Public Information.
A terse note from the German gen.
eral staff to the Council OF Peoples
Commissars is one of the documents
which discIoses that as long ago as
November, 1917. when the Russian re
gime still was regarded as an ally of
the nations at war with Germany,
the Germans were brusquely requiring
Lenine and Trotsky to furnish in
formation regarding amounts and
places of storage of supplies re
ceived by Russia from America, Eng
land, and France.
Spreading Of propaganda in Japan
to incite that nation against the
United States, England, and France
also was a method OF the German i'm
perial government while the intelli-
gence service required the Bolsheviki
10 send to the allied countries, through
neutral Europe, comrades" under as
sumed names and with false neutral
passports, to preach their doctrine
OF disorEanization and to carry on a
campaign of counter revolution,
sabotage, and looting.
The plans also disclose the fact
that Germany proposed to send three
submarines, dissembIed, by rail over
land to Vladivostok for service on the
Pacific. Among the other pieces OF
rascality Trotsly was to perform, was
TO issue fake passports. Among those
10 be issued was one to Baron Schill-
ing, who was ordered to America with
a Norwegian passport in the name Of
DR.. Brun.

About
Children'S
Eyes

In a lengthy treatise on
eye trouble frequently ex-
perieneed by school chill
dren, a noted physician
says in part:
Defective vision is be-
trayed by irritability,
he's d aches, istlessness,
and exhaustion after or
during school hours, or the
child falls behind in his
studies. It is not at all
uncommon to consider a
child stupid, blame him for
lack Of interest in his
studies, or even punish
him for outbursts Of
temper when defective
vision is the only cause"
And continuing, says:
Il have personally
known Of many children
who were considered
mentally defective, and
who would have been
committed to spend their
lives in institutions for
the weak-minded if the
school doctor had not dis
covered that they were
suffering from the most
extreme form of near
sightedness."
II your child shows tn.
slightest symptoms of eye
trouble, don't delay having

PURE CASCARA is
A FINE LAXATIVE

There is probably no better Taxa.
tive known than pure cascara, but
cascara alone will not always relieve
an aggravated case of constipation
Another well known remedy is sen.
ma leaves which have been used from
time immemorial to relieve a con-
gested condition of the bowels and
never yet has anything been discov-
cred to surpass their effects. But
SIENNA leaves alone. like cascara alone
will not always answer the problem
To get best results SIENNA leaves and
cascara should be mixed A little
dose of each is like two small horses
pulling together in the same direction.
they always out-pull one large horse
of equal weight.
To get right proportions of each in.
gredient requires chemists skill but
you can obtain cascara and SIENNA
tablets, already prepared. under the
name of Pepgen Laxative Tablets, at
Thistlethwaite's or any other first
class drug store.
When constipated it is a good idea
to take Pepgen Laxative Tablets In
connection with Pepgen Tonic. The
tablets keep the bowels open while
the tonic acts as a general builder
furnishing strength through the liver,
stomach and blood.

Mrs. James Peck. Of Boston. Ind,
was in Richmond recently While
here she called at Thistlethwaite's
drug store, corner 9Th and Main st.
She wanted to thank them for selling
her bottle of Pepgen several weeks
ago. This is what she said "Since
have been taking Pepgen | feel like
new woman. My stomach is SO
much better that words cannot ex-
press my relief"
II you are in a general rundown
condition you had better try Pepgen.
