KEEP IT HANDY
If you paid a specialist $25.00 for a
prescription, you would not get any-
thing that would give quicker relief
for Croup, Catarrh, Colds, or Sore
Throat, than VACHER BALM, which
only costs 30c in jars, or tubes.

Why That Lame Back?
Morning lameness, sharp twinges when
bending and an all day backache; each
is cause enough to suspect kidney com-
plaint. If you feel tired all the time
and are annoyed by dizzy spells, head-
aches and irregular kidney action, you
have additional proof and should act
quickly to prevent more serious kidney
trouble. Use Doan's Kidney Pills,
the remedy that is recommended every-
where by grateful users. Ask your
neighbor!
A Louisiana Case
C. M. Jones, barber,
227 Division St., Lake
Charles, La,, says: “I
was troubled a great
deal with my back and
kidneys. My kidneys
acted irregularly and
the secretions were
unnatural. My back
■was lame and stiff and
piained a good deal. A
dull, heavy ache set-
tled across my back
and loins and hurt mei
when I was on my feet
any length of time. I
began to use Doan’s
Kidney Pills and they
entirely cured me.”

EASY NOW TO SAW LOOS
AM COT SOWN TREES
Only one man,.or even a boy, with
the improved Ottawa Engine Log Saw
can easily cut twenty-five to forty
cords a day, and at a cost of less than
2c per cord. This machine, which out-
does all others, has a heavy, cross cut
saw driven by a powerful especially
designed 4-cycle gasoline engine. It’s
a fast money-maker for those using it,
and does more than ten men could do,
either cutting dqwn trees; sawing logs,
or buzzing branches while you rest.
When not sawing, the engine can be
used for other work requiring power.
Beware of Imitations.
The entire machine is mounted on
truck wheels to make it easy to move
to the trees or logs, and from cut to
cut on a log loithout stopping the en-
gine. For moving on the road, the
truck wheels are placed parallel with
the skids and the rig hauled straight
ahead. The wheels turn on a two-
way spindle. You do not have to take
them off, but can change direction of
wheel travel by merely taking out a
pin.
The Ottawa can be fitted for saw-
ing down trees. It cuts level with
surface of ground, thereby getting all
the timber and leaving no stumps
sticking up. An automatic friction
clutch stops the saw in case of undue
resistance. Two men can fall forty
to fifty trees a day in ordinary timber.
The whole outfit is compact, simple,
durable against a lifetime of hard
wear. It sells for a low price and is
fully guaranteed for reliable opera-
tion in the hands of every one who has
trees to cut down and logs to work up.
Full information and low factory
price to you can be had simply by ad-
dressing the Ottawa Mfg. Company,

Washington.—The text of the an-
nual Thanksgiving proclamation issued
Wednesday by President Wilson fol-
lows :
“By the president of the United
States of America:
“A proclamation.
“The season of the year has again
arrived when the people of the United
States are accustomed to unite in giv-
ing thanks to Almighty God for the
blessings which he has conferred upon
our country during the twelve months
that have passed. A year ago our
people poured out their hearts in
praise and thanksgiving that, through
divine aid, the right was victorious
and peace had come to the nations
which had so courageously struggled
in defense of human liberty and jus-
tice. Now that the stern task is ended
and the fruits of achievement are ours,
we look forward with confidence to
the dawn of an era where the sacrifice
of the nation will find recompense
in a world at peace.
“But to attain the consummation of
the great work to which the Ameri-
cans devoted their manhood and the
vast resources of the country, they
should give thanks to God. and recon-
secrate themselves to these principles
of right which triumphed through his
merciful goodness. Our gratitude can
find no more perfect expression than
to bulwark with loyalty and patriotism
those principles for which the free
peoples of the earth fought and died.
“During the past year we have had
much to make us grateful. In spite
of the confusion in our economic life,
resulting from the war, we have pros-
pered. Our harvests have been plen-
tiful, and of our abundance we have
been able to render succor t© less
favored nations. Our democracy re-
mains unshaken in a world tom with
political and social unrest. Our tra-
ditional ideals are still our guides in
the path of progress and civilisation.
'These great blessings vouchsafed to
us, for which we devoutly give thanks,
should arouse us to a fuller sense of
our duty to ourselves and t© mankind
to see to it that nothing we may do
shall mar the completeness of the vic-
tory which we helped to win. No
selfish purpose animated us in becom-
ing a participant in the world war,
and with a like spirit of unselfishness
we should strive to aid by our ex-
ample and by our co-operation, real-
izing the enduring welfare of all peo-
ples and in bringing into being a world
ruled by friendship and good will.
“Therefore, I, Woodrow Wilson,
president of the United States of
America, hereby designate Thursday,
the 27th day of November next, for
observance as a day of thanksgiving
and prayer by my fellow countrymen,
inviting them to cease on that date
from their ordinary tasks and to unite
in their homes and in their several
places of worship in ascribing praise
and thanksgiving to God, the author
of all blessings and the master of our
destinies.
“In witness whereof I have hereunto
set my hand and caused the seal of
the United States to be affixed.
“Done in the District of Columbia
this 5th day of November, in the year
of our Lord one thousand nine hun-
dred and nineteen, and of the inde-
pendence of the United States the one
hundred and forty-fourth.
(Seal) “WOODROW WILSON.

Beaumont, Tex.—Rice farmers in
Texas, Louisiana and Arkan-
sas will suffer losses of 1,500,000
bags over estimates made sixty days
ago, according to E. A. Eignus, man-
ager of the Southern Rice Growers’
Association, who recently received re-
ports from the three states on actual
yield.
Mr. Eignus declared the loss this
year will amount to as much as the
entire crop was worth 15 years ago.
Using $11.50 per bag as a basis, he
figures the farmers of the three states
lost this year $17,250,000, or an even
million dollars more than the entire
crop brought 15 years ago.
It is said the yield of rice thrashed
since the recent heavy rains has been
very unsatisfactory.
Bandits Slay 29 Guards.
Laredo, Tex.—Details were received
at Laredo Tuesday of an attack by
Mexican bandits on a train en route
from Guadalajara to Mexico City early
Saturday near Celaya, state of Guana-
juato, in which all but 11 of the 40
guards were killed, many passengers
wounded and all robbed.
London Discount Raised.
London.—The rate of discount of
the Bank of England was raised from

Vlicroscope Reveals Many
Vegetable Forms Can Move
As Easily as Can Animals
One of the chief distinctions be-
tween vegetable and animal life is that
animals have power of choice and of
voluntary motion, while vegetables and
plants grow only mechanically by
natural law. But the microscope seems
to show that many vegetable forms
can move as easily as can animals.
There is a plant called Volvox globa-
• tor, so minute that millions of it could
be put In a wine glass, which is seen
to whirl-like a top aci*oss the field of
the microscope. Some plants found in
our ponds, which are still more minute,
move habitually, as with an apparent
purpose.
Scientists who have given closer
study than others to climbing plants
state that these seem to exercise the
liberty of choice. Their tendrils, in
climbing over pieces of wood with
holes, will try one hole after another
until they find one that pleases them.
One investigator saw a tendril with-
draw itself after having located itself
In a hole for 36 hours.

G&od Things for the Family.
Salads are good dishes which the
family all like and if made of simple,
well-prepared vegetables with a well-
seasoned dressing, especially a French
dressing, even the children may in-
dulge in them.
Cauliflower and Onion Salad.
Chop one onion very- fine and mix
with the cooked flowerettes of a fine
head of cauliflower. Cook two slices of
salt pork cut in small pieces; when
brown pour the hot fat and crisp pork
over the vegetables, season with salt
and pepper, then add boiling hot a
tablespoonful or two of vinegar. Serve
at once. Cabbage may be used in
place of cauliflower.
Chicken Aspic Salad.
Use strong clear chicken stock, add
two tablespoonfuls of gelatin to a pint
of the stock, stir In a half cupful of
broken walnut meats when the jelly
begins to thicken. Mold, chill, turn
out on lettuce and mask with mayon-
naise.
Chestnut Salad.
Shell, blanch and cook the nuts un-
til tender. Add an equal quantity of
celery finely cut and some bits of
pimento. Serve with mayonnaise.

"Its Nature.
“How did you find the naturalist’s
lecture on sponges?’"
“Of absorbing "interest.”
Every druggist in town has noticed
a great falling off in the sale of Cal-
omel. They all give the same reason.
Dodson’s Liver Tone is taking its
place.
“Calomel is dangerous and people
know it.” Dodson’s Liver Tone is per-
sonally guaranteed by every druggist
who sells it. A large bottle doesn’t
cost very much but if it fails to give
relief in every case of liver sluggish-
ness and constipation, just ask for
your money back.

Bernares Salad.
Grate a fresh coconut, add twice the
measure of finely diced, good flavored
apples, a tablespoonful each of
chopped red pepper and onion, add
salt and cayenne to season and serve
on lettuce with any desired dressing.
A Fx-ench dressing is especially good
with this salad, using some of the
coconut milk with the oil and vinegar.
Salad of Smoked Herring.
Skin and bone the hei’ring and flake
the fish. Use as much hard-cooked
egg, chopped, as herring, and twice as
much diced potato as herriiig. Season

Serbian Government Asks
for Yank Female Doctors
Officials of the Serbian government
are asking the American government
for medical aid for their country—es-
pecially for women physicians.
The Mohammedan men, whose wom-
en folk lead a very secluded life, pre-
fer that they be attended by women
doctors—eqxxipped with modern med-
ical science, hut free of masculine
charms. The American women’s hos-
pitals have maintained women physi-
cians in Serbia for two years, many
of them having been decollated for
bravery in .war service. The Serbian
relief committee has just dispatched a
unit of four women doctors and a
dentist to Serbia, all financed by the
American women’s hospitals and
working under their direction.
Tomorrow the sun will shine for
you. Everything will seem clear, rosy
and bright. Your system is filled with
liver and bowel poison which keeps
your skin sallow, youq stomach upset,
your head foggy and aching. Your
l meals are turning into poison, gases
and acids. You cannot feel right. .Don’t
stay bilious or constipated. Feel splen-

sionally. They act without griping or
inconvenience. They never sicken you
like Calomel, Salts, Oil or nasty,
harsh pills. They cost so little too—
Cascarets work while you sleep.—Adv.

are buried with his bones, the latter
