flushed from the stomach, liver, kid

with teaspoonful of limestone phos-

and freshen the entire alimentary tract,

also to prevent their formation.
To feel like young folks feel; like

IMPRESSED
BY SCENES IN THE
GREAT WAR ZONE
Returning to Idaho to Tell Con-
stituents of What He Saw
and Importance For Floating
Victory Bonds.

Representative Burton L. French of
Idaho is enroute TO Idaho to assist In
the Victory Loan drive. He was great
ly impressed with his recent trip to
the war zone and will tell his con-
stltuents in this state of what he saw
and the Importance attached to MAX
ing the victory loan a success.
Cold print tells that we lost about
$4,000 soldiers on the field of battle
or through Illness" said Mr.. French.
"Our total casualties were nearly $780,
600 but startling as these figures are
they do not tell the suffering, the
hardship, the hell through which our
boys were compelled to go to help win
the war.
COVERED AMERICAN SECTOR.
I'VE covered especially the Ameri-
can sector in the Marine region. When
one looks upon the destruction Of cities
and towns the devastation Of fields,
forests and the lands that were once
titled, today looking like they We're
still suffering from the marks OF some
horrible plague, one wonders not that
the loss of life was $4,000, but that
our soldiers could have come through
what they did and so many of them be
able to return to tell OF their expe-
riences
We owe a debt of gratitude to the
officers, and we owe a debt of graft
tude to the enlisted men. We could
not get along without the officers and
yet from the standpoint of hardship
and sacrifice my Judgment is that one
of the officers phrased 1t rightly when
he said 10 me, This war was won by
the privates and the sergeants' My
hat is off to them and our country
forever will owe them q debt of graft
tude.
COUNTRY DEVASTATED.
Another thing that impressed me
deeply; We saw ruined factories and
mills devastated cities and mining re-
gions that cannot be operated for
years. The world cannot become nor
NAL for q long time. The world Is
only normal when every man has OPP
portunity for employment at good
compensation, and every producer an
opportunity to sell that which he pro-
duces at reasonable price at any
time he desires. The markets of the
world will be limited by reason of the
poverty of the worlds people for many
years. Its suffering Is small compared
with that of the regions we visited
and it will be our duty to be patient,
not to rock the boat and to strive
faithfully for the resumption OF nor
NAL conditions on the farm, IN the
mill, the mine, In our own country at
the earliest possible time"
Il am leaving at once for Idaho,
where 1 SHALL first OF all, take part in
the Victory Loan campaign, and after
that shall spend as much time as
possible before the converting of the
extra session in visiting different parts
of the state and in my home in Mos
COW. In view of my assignment by
the committee on committees to the
appropriation committee l shall need
to be in Washington as soon as the
extra session shall convene, and for
that reason have cut my trip to Eu-
rope short so that l could spend some
time in the state before we convene"
