Eastern Asia, in Greece and in Ger

do not know because there regions
are thousands of miles away. Yet
the unfortunate men, women and chill

dependent on the people Of the United
States for aid-and that aid must
come quickly. In Erivan, known
mainly to us because it has figured on
the war map Of the eastern fronts
conditions are horrible beyond belief
so dire are the straits to which the
population have been reduced that the
eating Of human flesh is not an un.
usual occurrence. One family there
was found preparing child's body

the high cost of living, can We con

These tablets are intended especi-
ally for indigestion and constipation.
They tone up the stomach and enable
it to perform its functions naturally.
They act gently on the liver and
bowels, thereby restoring the stom-

ton. When you feel dull, stupid
and constipated give them a trial.
You are certain to be pleased with
their effect.
