The American Army Gains
Weight Through Good Food

A few days ago Col. James B.
Kemper, in charge of the Harris
burg recruiting district, with head
quarters at 325 Market street, visit
ed Philadelphia on official business.
While there he was the guest of the
quartermaster in charge of supplies,
and had dinner with the boys on duty
there. The visit of the. colonel was
unexpected, but he was not surpris-
ed at the elaborate spread set out
before the boys at their MONDAY
meal Roast pork, apple sauce, sweet
potatoes, asparasus, mashed potatoes
pie, doughnuts, cake, coffee, bread
and butter, were on the bill of fare
The colonel complimented the men
on their menu. He said that this was
not unusual, but similar to the
messes throughout the service.
THE American army is coming
back to these shores $4,000 tons
huskier than when it sailed over
seas, which reveals why the return
ing doughboys literally burst out ot
the clothing they left at home
Said he, THE average increase in
weight in the American army was
twelve pounds to q man. This is due
in a very large measure of course tC
the seemingly limitless flow OF
wholesome foods into the training
camps and to France. This war has
been the healthiest in history. The
test we apply is the number oi
deaths from disease. Our record ir
this was was only eight per thou
sand per year."

Liege, May 7.-Along the route

desolated city tall smokeless Chin
neys line the formerly prosperous
valley of the Meuse. Idle coal miners,
huge plants which belched fire and
sizzled with the gurgle of the melt
ing lead and the boiling steel are
now silent and abandoned. There is
no outward visible sign of devasta-

GREEK ISLANDS
Tra nsport Personnel and
Supplies to Refugees
On the Islands

Athens, May TN its already
extensive and growing work in the
Greek Islands. the American Red
United States Navy. Six submarine
chasers have been placed at the dis
rosal of the Red Cross for trans
porting personnel and supplies to
the various islands where refugees
are concentrated.
On the Island of Mytilene the
conditions of the Greek refugees
who fled there from Asia Minor
five years ago has become desper-
ate. Red Cross workers are reg
ularly visiting all the towns on the
island, and clothing has been made
to about $4,000 of the $4,000 ref
ugees.
At the outbreak of the war in
1914 the Greeks were driven out
of Asia Minor. There were about
100000 of them there before the
war. More than 100000 escaped to
the islands in the Aegean. Thou
sands were massacred. The Others
driven out of their homes by the
Turks and sent inland, are now re-
turning, only to find their homes
either destroyed or occupied by
Turks who refuse to move. Prior
to the Allied occupation armed
bands of Turks roamed the country
side plundering and numbering
Greeks wherever found.
Get Six Cents a Day
The refugees in the Aegean
islnds intend to return to Asia
Minor as soon as conditions permit.
At present the Greek government
gives each refugee six cents q day.
The American Red Cross is de-
voting much attention to the pre-
vention of further epidemics such
as the typhus scourge which took
such a heavy toll at Mytilene. Eff
forts are being made to relieve over
crowding and consequent unsani-
tary conditions which enable epi-
denies to gain headway.
Food is scanty and costly on the
islands and most of the refugees are
underfed, even in the large towns
where conditions are better than in
the outlying villages. The clothing
situation is the worst, for after buy
ing food the purchase of clothes is
out of the question for the refugees.
Nearly all of these persons are in
rags. The hospitals are short OF
medicines and other supplies and
have been crowded on account OF
| the prevalence of influenza.

Mr.. Tippy pointed out that the gov

Probably no man in America was
ever better qualified to successfully
treat the diseases peculiar to women.
than DIR. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y.
The cases that come to him run
into many thousands, giving him an
experience that rarely comes to any
one man. DR.. Pierce. found that in
nearly every case there were certain
vegetable growths which rarely
failed to give prompt relief in those
feminine disorders from which so
many women suffer. He combined
these roots and herbs into a tenn
perance medicine that he called DIR.
Pierce's Favorite Prescription, for
that is precisely what it was. This
medicine is sold in both liquid and
tablet form by druggists everywhere.
Favorite Prescription is a distinct
remedy for women and acts directly
upon the organs that characterize
the sex. 1t Is not necessary to take
a long course of treatment with this
standard medicine. A weakly, sick
ly, backachy, headachy, nervous, de-
spondent woman, with regular or ir-
regular pains-with feminine disor-
ders that come in youth or middle
AGES pretty sure to find in DIR.
Pierce's Favorite Prescription the
exact remedy that her condition
calls for, and to find it after a very
few doses are taken. Why women
should allow themselves to stay sick
when a very little money spent for
this remedy will probably make
them we'll, is something no one can
explain.
All women who suffer from femi-
nine disorders are invited to write

BELGIUM DECIDES

Grown Council Takes Action
Despite Protest.

of peace, which was discussed 1T
crown council, it was announced.
The council continued in session un-
til midnight. Paul Hymans. minister
of foreign affairs and head of the Bel
gian delegation at the peace confer
ence, gave a review of the peace terms.
He expressed the opinion the treaty
as it now stands gave honorable and
satisfactory terms to Belgium and re-
commended it should be signed.
The council unanimously endorsed
NJ Hymans' view, but was equally
unanimous in expressing the opinion
that the attention of the powers
should be drawn to the financial and
economic situation in Belgium and to
the necessity that the allies assure
Belgium of complete support looking
TO her economic restoration.
4 petition had been presented to the
king by the national political commit
tee that he refuse to sign the peace
treaty.
This committee represents 100000
members and 300 communes.
The petition asserts the nation
would gain prestige in the eyes of the
world if her sovereign declined to at
tach his signature to Il document whic
did not guarantee her rights.

tition, "vast bodies have Joined US. We
