AMERICA-THE SYMBOL
OF FAITH AND HOPE
By GEO. W. GOETHALS
Acting Qaartermaater General
E VERY American citizen should be proud of the American
Red Cross. It is drily, indeed hourly, giving an example
of mercy to the whole world. Through its operations the
Buffering of soldiers and civilians is being alleviated.
The American people should continue to support the
American Red Cross. Through it they are helping their own
men and helping the allies. Through it they are making
America the symbol of faith and hope in a distracted world.
GEO. W. GOETHALS,
Acting Quartermaster General.
STOMACH TROUBLE
Mr. Marion Holcomb, of Nancy, Ky., says: “For quite
a long while 1 suffered with stomach trouble. 1 would
have pains and a heavy feeling after my meals, a most
disagreeable taste in my mouth. If I ate anything with
butter, oil or grease, I would spit it up. I began to have
regular s ; ck headache. I had used pills and tablets, but
after a course of these, I would be constipated. It just
seemed to tear my stomach all up. I found they were
no good at ail for my trouble. I heard
THEDFORD’S
Buck-draught
recommended very highly, so began to use it. It cured
me. I keep it in the house all the time. It is the best
liver medicine made. I do not have sick headache or
stomach trouble any more.” Black-Draught acts on
the jaded liver and helps it to do its important work of
throwing out waste materials and poisons from the sys
tem. This medicine should be in every household for
use in time of need. Get a package today. If you feel
sluggish, take a dose tonight You will feel fresh to
morrow. Price 25c a package. All druggists.

HIS JOB TO BANDAGE
WOUNDEDHOUSES
American Boss Carpenter Putting
French Villages Back on
the Map.
It was a monotonous stretch of ugly
trench, wire entanglements, gaping
shell holes, accented by the blackened
skeleton of shell killed forests silhouet
ted agaiast a dull, hopeless sky.
This had once been beautiful rolling
land like our own Ohio and Indiana—
rich in grain fields, orchards and gar
dens. Now it was desolation—nothing
could live there—seemingly nothing
did.
We bad come on some rising ground,
and as we climbed we reached the
brow of the slope, and of a sudden it
seemed that some giant had suddenly
twisted the old world under our feet
and we were back home, for of a sud.
den the sounds of life came up to ui
out of a bustling center of industry.
That satisfying chug of an honest ham
mer head sinking willing nail into
sound wood, and before us was a pan
orama of new building, with piles of
clean lumber stacked here and there,
and the framing of many new build-
IngB told where the wood was going.
Then we beard the voice of a man
who talked real "United States”—tell
ing 27 other carpenters what to do—
out in this foreign lgnd thousands of
miles from home.
We inquired of the boss as to who
be was, and with true sense of hu
mor he said: “1 am a Red Cross nurse.
My Job Is bandaging wounded houses.*'
Putting Villages Back on Map.
•‘This was once a French village,” he
went on to say, “in the center of fine
sugar beet country. We are living
now on the site of the sugar mill," he
said, pointing to a long, low barracks,
which plainly had been recently built.
“We are working for the American
Red Cross—putting villages back on the
map. In four more weeks we ll be out
of here and on our way to the next
ruin, for there are many villages that
need ua We go from place to place,
always finding that our lumber has
reached there first, so wc can get right
to work, clean up and move on again.”
It is just like pioneering, this re
building work of our Red Cross—only
more important—more important be
cause it is vital to the winning of the
war that these people come back to
their soil and plant new crops 1 —for fu
ture years of war or peace.
And so the tide of war sweeps back
from whence it came, a Red Cross
army follows close behind in uniforms
of overalls, armed with Yankee ham
mers and nails to coax back the found
lings that have been brushed into
squalid helplessness in the south and
east.
They are coming back home now,
Just a few days behind iheSe carpen
ters—back to the beet fields, the gar
dens and the farms. Soon they will be
feeding themselves and thousands of
others.
NAVY ENLISTMENTS DESIRED
Women wear high heels which
buckle up their toes and they suf
fer terribly with corns. Women
then proceed to trim these pests,
seeking relief, but they hardly
realize the terrible danger from in
fection, says the Cincinnati au
thority.
Corns can easily be lifted out
with the fingers if you will get
from any drug store a quarter of i
an ounce of a drug called freezone. |
This is sufficient to remove every j
hard or soft corn or callus from I
one’s feet. You simply apply a
few drops directly upon the ten-i
der, aching corn or callus. The
soreness is relieved at once and j
soon the entire corn or callus, root
and all, lifts out without one par
ticle of pain.
This freezone is a sticky sub
stance which dries in a moment.
It just shrivels up the corn with
out inflaming or even irritating
the surrounding tissue or skin.
Tel! your wife about this.

WHITE PLAGUE KILLS
MORE MEN THAN BULLETS
It seems longer, but It was less than j
four years ago that the nations had j
not yet started in to wipe each other I
off the map and that the only times i
when one heard of the Red Cross were \
times of flood or disaster and at 1
Christmas time, when the peaceful lit
tle Red Cross tuberculosis seals made
their annual appearance.
Perhaps, In fact, It was the long, ar
dent fight in America against the White
Plague which, in spite of the war’s
enormous new demands. Is responsible
for the especial interest being taken by
the American Red Cross In France’s
frightful struggle against consumption.
This scourge seems to mark the
trench fighter for its own. It kills
more men than do bullets and poison
gas combined. Until the American
Bed Cross was permitted by the
French government to start Its drive
against tuberculosis It looked as If,
even with a victory oyer the Hun,
France might eventually be conquered
by thii deadlier foe.
Already things are looking brighter.
The Red Cross has taken over old hos
pitals and built new ones. More than
800 tuberculosis dispensaries are to be
opened throughout the country, and
Red Cross doctors and nurses—scores
of them—are devoting themselves ex
clusively to this fight, doing over there
exactly the same kind of work which
Is financed in America by the little
Christmas seals. It Is one of the ways
In which by our contributions to the
Red Cross America can repay her debt
to France;

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured
by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure catarrhal deafness,
and that is by a constitutional remedy.
Catarrhal Deafness is caused by an In
flamed condition of the mucous lining of
the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
Inflamed you have a rumbling sound or im
perfect hearing, and when it is entirely
closed. Deafness is the result. Unless the
inflammation can be reduced and this tune
restored to Its normal condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever. -Many cases of
deafness are caused by catarrh, which is
an inflamed condition of the mucous sur
faces. Hall's Catarrh Medicine acts thru
the blood on the mucous surfaces of the
system.
Y:e will give One Hundred Dollars fjr
any case of Catarrhal Deafness that cannot
be cured by Hall’s Catarrh Medicine. Cir
