How Better Than Pills?

The question has been asl1ed-'n what way are Chamberlain's Tablets superior to the ordinary cathartic and liver pills? Our answer is, they are easier and more pleasant to take and their effect is so gentle that one hardly realizes that it is produced by a medicine. Then, they not only move the bowles but improve the ap- petite and strengthen the digestion.

$50 DISASTER DEATH
 TOLL FOR ONE YEAR
Red Cross Gives S1,871,OOe Re- lief When 65,OOO Families
 Are Made Homeless.

F0Tty-three disasters, resulting in the death in the United States of $50 persons and the injury of 2,50O called for emergency relief measures and the expenditure of $1.S11 ,O00 by the American Red Cross during the fiscal year ending June 30, 1921, says an announcement based upon the forth coming annual report of the Red Cross. These disasters caused property dam age estimated at $30000,O0O, affected siX1"-Seyen communities and rendered ',3,lC0 families homeless.
 The years disasters were of vary ing types, including several which pre- viousy had never been thought of as falling within that classifica. tion. The Red Cross furnished relief in seventeen fires of magnitude, five floods, seven tornadoes or cy- clones, one devastating storm, three explosions, including the one in Wall street; one building accident, twJ typhoid epidemics, the most serious be- ing shat at Salem, Ohio, which af- fected per cent of the population; one smallpox epidemic, in the republic of Haiti one train wreck, the race riot at Tulsa, Okla. the famine in China, emergency relief in famine among the Indians of Alaska, the grasshoppeT plague in North Dakota and an earth quake in Italy

Fast Work in Wall Street

The Vail street explosion was nOta- ble in that relief workers of the Red Cross were OF the scene twenty min utes after the disaster occurred. The race riot at Tulsa also was unique in disaster relief annals in that outside of small emergency relief fund con- tributed by the Red Cross, the only relief measures outside the city con- sisted of the service of social work CTS, nurses and a trained executive whose object was to assist local forces in directing their own efforts.
 In decided contrast with the pre- vious year, only one tornado assumed the proportions of a major disaster. This occurred on April 15, in the bOr- der sections of Texas and Arkansas with the city of TeXarkana as the center The significant feature of this disaster relief work was the fact that it covered so much rural territory as to make necessary a large number O. relief workers.
 The famine in China, necessitating relief expenditures tOtalling more than $1,OOO,OO by the American Red Cross was by far the most serious of the lOGtlSl ulSdSIcIS III WHICH lIlc 1NCNl Cross gave aid.
 Builds Up Its Machinery
 In connection with the adminiStra- tion of disaster relief measures, an in creasing effectiveness on the part of the Red Cross to deal with emergen- cies was manifested during the past year In 32S Chapters of the Ameri- can Red Cross there have been formed special committees to survey the re sources of their respective communi- ties and to be prepared in case of disaster. In others of the 3.402 active Chapters, network of communication has been formed through which instan taneous relief may be dispatched to any part of the United States.
 That it's work in this field may be continued with ever greater effective ness, the American Red Cross is ap pealing for widespread renewal of membership during it's Annual Roll Call, to be conducted this year from November II to 24.

Pueblo Most Serious

By far the most severe of the dis asters-in the United States during the period covered by the Red Cross re port was thG Pueblo flood early in June, 1921. The rehabilitation prob lem confronting the Red Cross in . Pueblo was one of the most difficult in recent years. When the first news of the horror was flashed throughout the country, the American Red Cross National Headquarters responded with a grant of $105.G0u for relief work. Governor Shoup of Colorado, appre- ciating> the long anG successful expert ence of the Red Cross in organizing disaster relief work, placed the en- tire responsibility for the administra- ton of relief in it's hands.
 In response to appeals from Pres; dent Harding. Governor Shoup and other G0verEorS of western states ana through local chapters of the Red Cross and other community organiZa- tions, public-spirited citizens brought tue total contributed for Pueblo's re- mobilization to more than $325000
 The terrible havoc wrought by the flood waters is matter of record. More than 2,3U0 homes were affected and 1851 persons were left homeless. Estimates of $500,000 as an absolute minimum for rehabilitation were made by Red Cross officials in charge of the relief work

Many fever epidemics are caused
oy impurities in the water supply,
and are ended only when the water
is purified. Many itching skin
troubles are caused by impurities
in the blood supply, and can be
stopped only when these are driven
out.
When you itch, itch, itch all day
with flaming torture that drives you
half mad, you should look deeper
than the skin itself. The cause of
your trouble may be far down in
the blood stream, and require an
internal treatment that will purify
It before you can get relief. Any
other course would be treating
symptoms rather than the cause.
