CHRONIC CONSTIPATION

Perhaps you have never thought OF
it, but this disorder is due to a lack
Of moisture in the residual or the
food. If you will drink an abundance
Of water, eat raw fruits and take lots
Of outdoor exercises, you may be able
eventually to overcome it entirely.
in the meantime use the most mild
and gentle -laxatives. Strong and
harsh cathartics take too much water
out of the system and make pad
matter worse. Chamberlain Tablets
are easy and pleasant to take, and
most agreeable in effect. Give them
a trial.

more toward breaking up the tobacco

GERMAN WAR RELICS

Mr.. and Mrs Geo. Swihart have re-
ceived from their son, Vernon, lieu
tenant in the American army and now
stationed in Germany,a very interest
ing collection Of war relics. Among
them are German trench helmet, a
savage looking bayonet, with a saw
edge on one side, severay buttons off
German uniforms, fragments of high
explosive shells and two very inter-
esting pieces Of tapestry, each about
a yard square. There was also a
belt buckle, bearing the famous, or
rather, perhaps, infamous German
motto, "Gott Nit Uns." We wonder
how it is that Kaiser Bill accounts
for the withdrawal of Divine favor
the major portion of which he used to
claim for himself.

SAW, WAR EXHIBIT

Miss Flora Haven has written her
parents that she attended the great
War Exposition held in Detroit under
the auspices of the U. S. and Allied
Governments. The relics brought
back from Europe and placed on ex-
hibition included machine guns, Big
Bertha, airplanes full of bullet holes,
ammunition wagons, field kitchens,
German howitzers, French guns,
swords, German helmets and broken
statues from the churches desecrated
by the Huns. Miss Haven says that
it was a wonderful exhibit and ex-
presses regret that all her friends in
Clio could not have the opportunity
of seeing it.

VILLAGE ROADS

One of the most important pro-
jects looking to the betterment Of the
streets of Clio, that has been pro-
posed in years, was gotten under way
at the council room, last Monday ev-
einng, where at meeting Of citizens
it was decided to circulate petitions
to have the trunk highways travers-
ing the corporate limits of the vii
lage taken into the county road sys-
tenn under what is known as the
Covert Act. If these petitions are
supported, Vienna Street and Mill
Street will be paved for their entire
length within the corporation, with
concrete. The county will construct
the pavement, issue the necessary
bonds for payment of its cost, assume
55 per cent of the cost, the remaining
45 per cent to be raised by assessing
80 per cent upon the township at
large and Is per cent against the
owners of abutting property. These
will be the terms if the law is con-
tinued in force as it now stands upon
the statute books. The present leg
islature may amend it somewhat, but
an effort is being made to have them
leave it as it is. If the project re-
ceives the approval of our citizens, as
every indication points that it will,
Clio will have more standard pave
ment than any other town in the
county and its prestige will be in
creased accordingly. 1t will pay us
to have the reputation of being the
most up-to-date village in the county.
The county will assume perpetual
care of this pavement, if it is con-
structed, and the payment for it,
including those taxes which will be
assessed locally will be spread over
a period of ten years. Credit for
starting this project belongs to Viii
lage President Chas. E. Taylor, M.
C. Doyle and G. A. Lacure and Mr..
Taylor, who is circulating the petit
tions, would appreciate the coopera-
ton of all citizens.

MT. MORRIS THEATRE

Next Saturdays show will be a
blinger, and that's no joke. "Six
Shooter Andy" will be there wearing
enough guns to sink a battleship,
and Andy is some shooter, too, as
you will agree if you see this red
blooded frontier play. There will be
more gun play, more thrills to the
minute in "Six Shooter Andy" than in
asything you ever saw in your life.
Boys, girls and old folks will get a
view of the life that has distinguished
this country, and is soon to be no
more, in this play. Tom Mix will play
the title role. On Sunday we shall
present our old favorite, Roy Stew
art, supported by charming Josie
Sedgwick, in a splendid western play,
entitled Paying His Debt" 1t is
the story of a consumptive who seeks
restoration of his health in the pure
air of the western plains. He meets
with scant sympathy and finally is
hurled into the street from a saloon
where he has stopped to beg bite
to eat. A sweet woman bends over
him, slips twenty dollar gold piece
into his hand and his regeneration be-
gins. The story is handled beauti-
fully and, of course, concludes with
heroism and love triumphant. Shows
at 1880 and 900, eastern standard.
Car at 9:15 allows Clio folks to see
the first show and still get home
early.

WHY YOUR MONEY IS
NEEDED-H0W IT HELPS
This Brief QUESTIONABLE Gives Inter
estino Information on the
Victory Liberty Loan.

The government already Is exploit
ing the Victory Liberty Loan, which
will be foated In April. In order that
the people may start saving for the
purpose Of investing In bonds Of the
Victory issue" The following brief
questionable should tend to clarity
the mind of any reader regarding the
Victory Loan:
Q. The war being over, why Is there
need of another great popular war
loan?
A. The proceeds from the Fourth
loan, according to Secretary Of the
Treasury Glass. were exhausted last
December and the government must
have billions more with which TO main.
tain our forces overseas, bring the vic
tors home and carry out It's reconstruc-
tion plans.

Of $500. 100000 every two weeks. short
term anticipation certificates of In.
debtedness being issued in return.
I q. As long as the banks are advanc.
ing the money, why not let them con.
tinue TO do SO!
| A. Because In order to continue "a
extend credit to the business interests
big and little Of the country the banks
must get back this money-amounting
to 20 per cent of their entire re
sources--when 1t falls due, as only
thus can the prosperity we now enjoy
be continued.
Q. VIII the Victory Loan be offered
to the people on commercial basis,
or will their patriotism again be ap-
pealed TO?
A. Secretary Glass says the patriot
Ism Of the American people will be re-
lied upon to send the loan trium-
phantly "over the top 1t, however,
will be made particularly attractive
as to rate of interest and period OF
maturity.
Q. What are the monthly war ex-
penditures Of the government at the
present timer

AMERICAN PEOPLE READY
TO COMPLETE THE JOB
Victory Liberty Loan Must Succeed TO
q Degree In Keeping With Success
of Former Loans.
BY CHARLES II. ScHWEPPE,
Director Of Victory Liberty Loan Cam
pahgn, Seventh Federal
Reserve District.

Despite the fact that hos -ilities have
ceased and preliminary steps to the
signing OF peace treaty been taken.
our big war job Is not finished. The job
will not be completed until the war
bills are paid and the slate of the ma
tiOn Is clean. Those of us who re-
malned on this side Of the water still
have work to do to polish off the great
victory won by our soldiers and sail
ors, and the work before us is as pa
triotic and essential as that already
accomplished.
The Victory Liberty Loan must sue
ceed to a degree in keeping with the
success OF the four previous loans.
This success can be attained only
through the efforts and enthusiasm of
the entire people. Liberty Loan or
ganizations must put into their efforts
the same vim and fire that character
iZed their work in the previous loans.
The people must do everything within
their power to aid the organizations
in performing the task that is rs much
theirs as In the time when the nation
was warning.
The spirit of thanksgiving should
permeate the American atmosphere
should dominate the heart of every
citizen, for IL 1t had not been for the
extensive preparation to fight the cen
tral powers until victory perched upon
our banner the war would have been
proInnyad inda6pitoIv with a cnpsa-
quent loss of thousands of lives that
otherwise were saved to us when the
German general staff acknowledged
the futility of continuing the struggle
for world domination. The great vic
tory was achieved very largely through
through the soldiers that did not go
across, and through the general prep
arations In other directions. The Amer
lean people can give expression to
their thanksgiving by subscribing to
the limit of their ability In making
the Victory Liberty Loan an over
wheming success.
The fullness of the great victory will
not be realized until the war bills are
paid and all the boys brought home.
The expenses OF the war have been
huge, but America set out TO win the
war at any cost. and now, with vic
tory secure. the American peOnle stand
ready To complete the job as .gned TO
them-providlng the money CESAR.
to win the victory.
