Stella-Vitae THE GUARANTEED TONIC FOR WOMEN Stella-Vitae has been in success ful use in the treatment of those diseases peculiar to women for more than a third of a century. For nearly ten years it has been sold under a plain, positive guarantee to benefit. Less than one bot tle out of every one thousand sold has been refunded for, and every claim for a refund has been satisfiea Thousands of letters like this praising Stetta-Vitae and telling of benefit to suffering women have been received. firs. E. n. Russell, of Mill Springs, N. C., gratefully writes us as follows: “I was in a most wretched condi tion; had palpitation of the heart and would swell and bloat in a most distressing way. When I began using Stella-Vitae I weighed 108 pounds. Now I weigh 135. lam more thankful than I can ever tell you for the great good this won derful medicine has done me.” Mrs Russell was at that critical period, the “change," and her sincere gratitude for the blessed relief will be understood and appreciated by every woman who reads her letter. Stella-Vitae has proved a boon to suffering womanhood, to young girls approaching their first vital period, to women approaching the anguish of childbirth, to women approaching the “changeof life.” Stella-Vitae strength ens the female organs and promotes regularity in the monthly function. No risk of loss is taken by any suf fering woman who tries Stella-Vitae r ' our guarantee of the first bottle. ® All dealers sell Stella-Vitae ana will return your money if it does not bene fit you.

UNITED WAD WORK CAMPAIGN TO RAISE . $170,509,000 FOR 00YS OVER THERE AND IN FIGHTING AREAS WILL STIR THE SOUTHEAST WEEK OF NOVEMBER 11. According to the statement issued by Dr. John R. Mott, Director General of the United War Work Campaign, the total amount to be raised during the week of November 11th is 1170,500,000, fixed by the War Department, approved by the President. The fund will be administered by the Government Director for th* seven recognized War Work Agencies, the Y. M. C. A., Y. W. C. A., National Catholic War Work Council (Knights of Columbus), Jewish Welfare Board, War Camp Community Service, American Library Asso ciation and the Salvation Army. “The amount is the largest ever asked as a gift from any people in the history of the world,” said Dr. Mott. “Viewed as a total sum, it seems gigantic, but divided by the four million men who will be under arms In our army and navy during the period it Is expected to cover, you find that*it means less than 15 cents a day per man. Surely there is no Father or Mother or friend of a soldier in this country who will say that 15 cents a day is too much to spend on his church, his home over there, his library, his theatre and his club. The President summed up the whole appeal in a recent letter in which he spoke of the work of these seven great agencies as “of vital military importance.” He had in mind the fact that their activities are largely responsible for the mainte nance of the splendid morale of our forces. There has never been in history so spectacular an example of the extreme Importance of morale as is now being presented on the Western front. The forces that confront each other there are not widely dissimilar in numbers or equipment, yet one army is constantly withdrawing.and the other irresistibly mov ing forward —the difference is spelled in the single word, MORALE. “Napoleon said that ‘morale’ is as other factors in war as three to one! General Pershing, in a recent letter, commenting oii the work of the agencies, quoted with approval the statement of one of his colonels, who said: 'Give me nine men who have a hut to spend their evenings in and I will have a better fighting force than ten men would be without it.’ If it is worth $24,000,000,000 to keep our boys under arms next year, surely it is worth $170,000,000, and more, to add 10% to their fighting if it brings victory 10% nearer. This is the appeal of the seven Unit ed War Work agencies to America, and particularly to those four mil lion homes where service flags fly, and we know what America’s an swer will be.” Welfare Workers Serve Soldiers During Epidemic Men in Quarantine During “Flu” Scare Succored By Y. M. C. A., Knights of Columbus, War Camp Community Service, American Li brary Association And Other Organizations When the Spanish “flu” hit Camp Gordon the Y. M. C. A. women workers found themselves pressed into service as seamstresses turning out “flu” ■ masks of gauze for the soldiers. Or ders were issued by General Sage, commanding officer at the canton ment, that every trooper should wear a “flu’’ mask whether at drill, or en joying a much needed rest. The re sult was that thousands of masks were in demand and every woman who could ply a needle was pressed into service. The “Y” women, recent arrivals at camp to act as secretaries in the huts, did yeoman service, and hundreds of 58 JEWISH WORKERS GOING “OVER THERE” Col. Barker Bids Godspeed to the Graduates of Train ing School. The whole-souled co-operation be tween the seven great organizations working for the happiness and welfare of our soldiers and sailors was re cently Illustrated at the graduation exercises of the tenth class of the Jewish Welfare Board’s Training School in New York. Col. William S. Barker, who went to France represent ing the Salvation Army with the first contingent of our troops and has been “over there” fifteen months, was the principal speaker and wished the fifty eight Jewish workers of the class God speed, while Louis Marshall, the promi nent Jewish attorney and philanthro pist of New York, lauded the work of the Salvation Army among the boys at the front. “What our fighting boys need is in spiration and heart and character in those who are there to help them," declared Col. Barker. “You will rep resent in the camps and overseas the ideals and standards of the Jewish faith, and it is up to you above all things to he consistent in your re ligious practices. Practice what you preach. That, I am sure, has been the secret of our own success. If you live up to the principles of your faith and give what you have to give from a heart big with love, the boys will re spect you, whether they be Protestant, Catholic or Jew.” The newly graduated field workers will make a total of 200 men doing field work in our camps and naval training stations under the auspices of the Jewish Welfare Board. The Board has about fifty "huts” in the various camps and maintains centers in all large cities where soldiers and sailors of all faiths are welcomed. A headquarters has recently been estab lished in Paris, and 100 men are being recruited here for overseas work. There are now nearly 126,000 Jews serving In the army and navy. HENRY COUNTY WEEKLY, McDONOUGH, GEORGIA the masks were turned out as the re sult of their efforts. The “flu” epidemic forced the clos ing of all Y. M. C. A. huts, Knights of Columbus recreation halls, camp the atres and Jewish Welfare establish ments closed, but out-door entertain ments were staged to serve the men quarantined in camp. Those convales cent in the barracks were also given the benefit of this service. The advent of women secretaries at the Red Triangle huts has proved a decided sensation among the troops, and they are quick to express their satisfaction at the innovation. The women workers release men for serv ice in the barracks and assume the du ties of the men secretaries at the huts.
