(STOMACH TROUBLE I Mr. Marion Holcomb, of Nancy, Kv., says: "For quite ■ a long while I suffered with stomach trouble. I would have pains and a heavy feeling after my meals, a most ■ I disagreeable taste in my mouth. If I ate anything with n butter,oil or grease, I would spit it up. I began to have If regular sick headache. 1 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 all for my trouble. I heard THEDFORD'S I BLACK-DRAUGHT I recommended very higltly, so began to use it. It cured B me. I keep it in the house all the time. It is the best liver medicine made. Ido not have sick headache or B stomach trouble any more." Black-Draught acts on ■ the jaded liver and nelps it to do its important work of throwing out waste materials and poisons from the sys- m tem.

W. 8. 8. TAKE THE BOYS "OVER THE TOP" The next Mr campaign that must be put over with the name success that mot the recent lied Cross ami Liberty Loan drivos Is tha'War Savings Cam paign. This mußt be done, President Wilson says, on or before Friday, June 2S. Ho has proclaimed that day National War Savings IJay and lias called on overy man, woman und child to subscribe all that In his honest opinion he will be able to pay during the remainder of tho year to tho War Savings Cam paign. t When Mr. Vanderlip and hln associates decided over a month ago that ho Wnr Savings Campaign should be made to go "over the top" now, instead jf taking a year and a month to do it, tl»ey sought a plan by which this could be done. Tho State of Nebraska furnished tho plan, for this state had already subscribed several millions dollars over lt« quota and had raisd over BO per cent of Its sales. Jlr. Vanderlip at once set about to know how Nebraska did It. Ho called Into conference Mr. Ward M. ilurgoss, Stale Director of War Savings for Nebraska, and Mr. Klddow, Mr. Hurgoss's right-hand man. Together they studied the plan In the light of a national plan, and with the experience of the two men who had worked it to a successful Issuo, they obviated mistakes and such features as to mako It even more thorough and pracllceabfe for other States. Consequently, not only North Carolina but other states of the Union have been asked to adopt this plan und put over tho War Savlnsg Campaign June 28. When Col. F. H. Fries, War Savings Director of North Carolina, was called to New York several weeks ago, with other state directors, to have this plan put before them, he was asked if North Carfollna could do it. "Sure," said Colonel Fries, "what Nebraska can do, North Carolina can do. We'll put It over If it takes all the bunting and the (lags and the drums In the whole South to do It." With tlila conviction and determination, Colonel Fries came back and Bet about to perfecting tiic plans to make them most suitable to North Carolina conditions. These plans have been presented through conferences held at convenient places In the state to the county chairmen and other War Savings Workers. Kvery county chairman has In his hands a detailed copy of the plans, and he has been advised to follow the Instructions step by step as given him to avoid confusion and to do the work with the greatest possible ease and efficiency. Only one important change In the national plan did Colonel Fries think best to make for North Carolina. That was to make the campaign last a week Instead of a day. Therefore, the week beginning June 2S continuing through June 28 has been designated as North Carolina Waf Savings Week. Tho Uovernor of North Carolina lias Issued a proclamation calling for every citizen of tho slate to observe this week as War Savings Week by subscrib ing at tills time all that ho will be able to buy during the remainder of the year The week begins on Sunday, June 23, with a state wide appeal for War Pavings In the churches and Sunday Schools. On Monday, Tuesday, Wednes day and Thursday, a house to-liouse canvass will be mado in every township in the Stato to secure War Savings pledges. Kvery taxpayer or householder will mako his pledge or give his excuse for not doing so. A record of every per son's pledge will be taken and kept. On Friday, June 28, the drive will cul minate In a War Savings rally held at every school IIOUBO in the state. The State Director has called on every person In the school district to attend thie meeting either to celebrate the occasion of the township's subscribing ita quota or If that he not the case, to finish raising Its Quota. In other wordi, there Hi but one thing for arty township to do on that day, and that is to sub scribe Its quota to the War Savings Campaign. Likewise, there Is but one thing for every person to do, and that Is to do his duty to the War Savings Campaign, which Is his utmost. The Clovernment expects no less of every man, woman and child In the state on this occasion.

There Is no question that the cost of propef maintenance Is many times saved In the Increased economic value of the highway traflie. Maintenance may be divided Into two general classes: First, the upkeep of roads which have been constructed alojig—standard line with minimum grades, proper drainage and surfac ing material; second, the conditioning of roads that have had little. If any, constructive attention. Highways coming under the first class aro not so liable to be neglected by those entrusted with their care, und while their maintenance problem Is n very Important and necessary one, this class of roads represents only n lesser portion. The greater percent age of roads In the state are not Im proved. Inasmuch as tills class of roads serve the majority of the people and this kind of road will always pre dominate, It is very necessary that at tention be directed to proper ways and means of their maintenance. Bach year more or less construction work Is being done and the mileage of Improved roads Increased, and whllft this work Is going on the unimproved roads should be kept In as good condi tion as possible at a minimum cost. The best results can only be ob tained by the enthusiasm and local pride of the man who uses the roail. He Is the fellow most Interested, and a small amount of Intelligent atten tion by himself and his neighbors will show great results on their particular section of the road. This rule applied throughout the length and breadth of any state would mean n system of earth roads that could be pointed to with pride. MAKING PROFfT FROM SWINE' Proper Care and Feed Are Necessary —Provide Comfortable Quarteri and Lots of Sunshine. In order to make n profit from pigs It la pecessary to give them the prop- j er care and feed. They should be pro- | vldod with clean, comfortable quarters, • exercise, and plenty of sunshine. The sow should b« given special care at farrowing time. She should bo fed lightly for a few duys after farrow ing, and the amount of feed gradual ly Increased as tho young pigs de velop. 4rTlie ration for the sow nt this timo should bo one which will produce a ' wllk. A good ration for this purpose Is one composed of corn, shorts, bran, a small amount of tank age, and u good quality of alfalfa fed fro a a rack, Bran may make up 10 per cent of the ration, as lt'has u ben eficial effect on tho dlgcstlvo system and tends to lucrease the milk pro duction.

M. C. A. Secretaries Follow Th« Soldier* Out Into No Man's Land No Job Too Small For The Blggeat —. or Mm . The American Y. M. C. A. Is keep ing Its promises. American secretaries are now, and have been for many Weeks, at work in the forward areas along the battle tront in France. To an Indeterminate number of Red Tri angle men "over there" gas and shell lire and mud and actual battle are-a grim reality—a part of the dAy's work. A personal letter of absorbing Inter est was lately received from Mr. Ralph Harbison, president of the Pittsburgh Y. M. C. A. and a well known business man of that city, who has been in France on a special Y. M. C. A. Mis sion. The Letter "Casualties had occurred among our soldiers Just before we arrived at Ottr village," the letter reads, "and we were ordered to get under cover of our de suite. After a supper of chocolate, war bread, and canned beef, the six of us sec retaries were Srdered to the cellar of the 'Y,' together with fifty soldiers who happened to bo in the old shell-torn building, as the boche were beginning -again to shell the town. We took can dles, a big basketful of canteen sup • plies, to last us in case we should have to be dug out later, overcoats and blan kets. We fitted our gas masks on to be sure they were working wellf and then settled down—or tried to—in the dungeon. We expected to have to stay all night, but In an hour a Bentry call ed, 'All out,' and up we gladly want The rest of tho evening we Bpent up- Btairß In one of the reasonably whole rooms, with piano and songs and sto ries and the ever-present and wonder ful canteen, at which I took my turn. "Needless to say, I slept none that night, with all the bang and noise out side, but nobody does, I'm told, the first night The night before I got about two hours of dozing with a stiff nock, sitting up in a crowd'ed night train, but, strange to say, I never felt the lack of it for a minute. "We were up the next morning at une bonne iieure, and after breakfast at the officers' mess Clarke and I started off for the tranches, each of us ladened with about fifty pounds of canteen supplies besides our helmet, gas masks, carried at all times at 'alerte,' etc. "For two hours we pursued a tor tuous way among the various lines of trenches and connecting tranches, stopping frequently to dispense our popular wares among the boys, some repairing the trenches, some building new ones, some on sentry duty, some keeping In the dugouts, some man ning guns and watching for German heads. "As we entered the front-llno trenches, we suddenly ran into Secre tary Baker and accompanying officers. I stepped aside as well as I sa luted and said, 'Good morning, Me. Secretary.' As they passed I heard one of the officers say to the Secre tary, 'You see, Mr. Secretary, the "Y" men are right up in the front-line trenches with the boys.' "Time was flying, and we knew there were still more soldiers further on who would be glad to see us. Soon we entered 'No Man's Land' by means of a 'lench, a land which we had setn frini the rear lines In the dis uinco an tour earlier, all uprooted an.l turn and desolate, and after some min utes we crawled, hot and winded, Into a shell hole—the furthermost listening post in our lines and found six sol diers on guard, all very much alert. They gave us a warm welcome, and we conducted our communications )n low whispers, for there were Ihree German snipers in three different di rections only seventy-five feet away. to say, our gunnysacks were empty twhen we came out We hurried back to the sign of the Red Triangle In the village, drank a cup of hot chocolate, and started in again in another direction. "We watched the explosions getting closer and closer, each one preceded by the weirdest kind of a wail and whine through the air, and then dur ing a let-up we rushed across the open and Into the dugotits In an embank ment, where our second pack of sup plies disappeared. "Two of the secretaries had been gassed the day before we arrived at this place, and one slightls wounded by shrapnel, while others wire break ing under the physical strain and need ed relief. I'm sure we will hear of fatalities soon, but since my experi ence In the trenches I don't ask the question any more —• 'ls It worth while?' Never was such an opportun ity given to man to serve his fellow men as this. "Pass the word on, and pass It ' quickly, that five hundred of the most capable, earnest, and blg-souled Chris tian men are needed here today In ad. dltlon to the weekly stream that Is coming. We are cabling New York frequently, but they don't come. It Is i critical, and we must not fail, but we will unless more and better men come Immediately. As I see it, there Is no Y. M. C.
