DRAFTEEs GO TO CAMP.

The fact that good news was re-
ceived here and the city was celebrat-
ing in an unheard of manner, did not
halt the wheels of the selective serv-
ice law and the second district board
sent five men to various cantonments
yesterday. Isadore NJ. Abrahamson
and Joseph Gregory were sent to Gar
den City, L. l. Andrew Fl. Abraham
son to Long Island City; Albert Fl.
Oquist to Morrison, Va, and Francis
Thomas Lynch to the navy depart

Stomach Dead
Man Still Lives

People who suffer from sour stonn-
ach fermentation of food, distress
after eating and indigestion, and seek
relief in large chunks of artificial di-
gestors, are killing their stomachs by
naction just as surely as the victim
Of morphine is deadening and {injur-
ing beyond repair every nerve in his
body.
What the stomach of every sufferer
from indigestion needs is a, good pre-
scription that will build up his stom-
ach, put strength, energy and elastic
ty into it, and make 1t sturdy enough
to digest a hearty meal without arti-
fetal aid.
The best prescription for indiges-
tion ever written is sold by druggists
everywhere and by The Clark &
Brainerd Co, and is rigidly guaran-
teed to build up the stomach and
cure indigestion or money back.
This prescription is named Mi-o-na,
and Is sold in small tablet form in
large boxes, for only a few cents. Re
member the name, Mi-o-na stomach
tablets. They never fail.

both mon and conditions Here II
where Americans are wrong. They
think OF the Russian revolution In
terms OF men-in terms OF
leaders. They are swept away
by gigantic forces. They can
not even steer tho revolution.
Please think In terms OF conditions
and not In terms OF men
Need World Pity
Russians today are running after
Trotsky and Lenine not because
they are TrotHky and Lenine. but
because OF what these men stand
for.
Judge no, Russia, lest ye be
judged. Russia needs the worlds
pity. not It's Judgment

motives landed In parts on the
docks Of vladivostok and hauled In
parts on cars 10 tho Interior OF
European Russia. when they should
have been assembled Mt vladivos-
tok and under their own steam
hauled the freight Russia needs.
Think OF Suffering
Let Americans think OF the Rus
sian retreat In the Carpathians.
Russia rrtreaied because she had
no shells Rather. she retreatef be-
cause while shs had plenty Of
shells they would not NJ the Rus

Tn. Austrians came UP. put the

The shells had been made in
France. They were made from spec

generals. And these Russian Lead
ers had been bribed by Austria TO
furnish the specifications OF the
Austrian shells. in order that the
shells Russia paid for might be
used against her In Just tho way
in which they were used.
Have pity on the Russian peo-
pie. for today they are the most
