EN can hot win this war without
the help of women.
Don't confirm these old slanders:
"Women talk too much" ; "Women can't
keeD a secret."
Don't pass along any Information that
your men folk may carelessly or trust
fJlly pass along to you.
Don't fail to report to the nearest
officer disloyal or suspicious remarks
or behavior on the part of anybody
native or foreign.
Don't forget that some of the most
dangerous enemies of the country In
time of war are native Americans of
the greatest sincerity.
Don't forget that this war will end
to our advantage only when It ends with
victory-
Don't get discouraged. A short war
and a. hasty peace may cost another
war and greater loss of lives than
cleaning up this war.
. Don't let jealousy of other women
whose men get to the front or are kept
at home make you- suspicious of motives
or Influences. The organizations and
individuals are all parts of a compli
cated machine: each cog must fit In Its
place and move when needed.
Don't accuse th stay-at-homes of
base motives. Many of them are mors
eager to be abroad than some that are
theret The success of the men In France
depends on the energy of the men at
home. For every man ln a trench a
great many men are needed In the rear,
or the fighting line will fail of ammuni
tion, food, supplies, funds, - equipment
and reinforcements.
Don't forget that cynicism and sar
casm are the cheapest things on earth.
but may prove deadly in their result.
Don't forget that it Is treason to give
aid and comfort to the enemy. Nothing
comforts the enemy more than the feel
ing that the war is unpopular at home
and that the people are against It.
Ddn't spread the falsehood that this
is a rich man's war. It is being fought
for the welfare of the poor of the whole
world. Rich men and their son. are
making sacrifice, of life, wealth, and
comfort In due proportion to their num
ber. Activities that tend to destroy,
discredit or discourage honest wealth
attack the prosperity of the entire na
tion and cripple It power. Gigantic In
dustries make this nation gigantic and
give It taxpaylng. money-spending,
money-lending powers equal to armies
of soldiers.

When you wake up with backache
and dull misery In the ktdney region it

to filter it from the blood and they be
come sort of paralysed and loggy.
When your kidneys get sluggish and
clog you must relieve them, like -you
relieve your bowels'; removing all the
body's urinous waste, else you have
backache, sick headache, dlssy spells;
your stomach sours, tongue la coated,
and when the weather Is bad you have
rheumatic - twinges. The . urine Is
cloudy, full of sediment, channels often
gets sore, water scalds and you are
obliged t6 seek relief two or three times
during the night. ,

cian at once or get from your pharma
cist about four ounces of Jad Salts :
take a tablespoonful In a glass of water
before breakfast for a few days and
