WAKE UP YOUR LIVER BILE
Without Calomel-And You'll Jump Out of
 Bed in the Morning Karin to Go

The liver should pour out about 2 pints of bile juice into your bowels every day. If this bile is not flowing freely, your food may not digest. It may just decay in the bowels. Then gas bloats up your stomach. You get con- stipated. You feel sour, sunk and the world looks punk.
 It takes those mild, gentle Carter's Little Liver Pills to get these pints of bile flow ing freely to make you feel "up and up." Get package today. Effective in making bile flow freely. Ask for Carter's Little Liver Pills. 33f at any drugstore.

Gen. Hershey
Expects Draft
Bill Passage
In Few Days
Wartime Head Of Selec-
tive Service In Wilm-
ingtOn Address; Sees
Approval By Congress
Of Some Draft Plan.

Maj.-Gen. Lewis B. Hershey. ma
tiOnal director of Selective Service
and Records, said Monday night of
this week, in Wilmington that
there is "every indication" that
there will be some form of draft
legislation approved by Congress
within the next week or 10 DAYS.
The general who supervised the
mobilization of manpower for the
United States in World War ii, was
a guest at a meeting in the Della
ware Historical SOciety's Old Town
Hall held by the Delaware Society,
Sons of the American Revolution.
His talk to the members and a
brief interview over Station WILM
both emphasized his belief in ade-
quate preparedness as the only
means Of survival.
In the radio interview, during
which he expressed the opinion that
there would be draft in the near
future, General Hershey, pictured
the machinery as similar to the
wartime process but on a smaller
scale. He added the belief that
world conditions might be far bet
ter today if the United States had
demobilized with little less
haste" after World War II.
Need For Preparedness
He exDanded on these remarks
in his address to the S. A. R. mem
bers and their guests: "How much
wiser it is" he told the group. "to
strive for peace by being ready.
rather than fighting for it after it
is lost"
