NEED OF HELPING
RUSSIA SETi FORTH
BY
BUCHANAN
LOXpON", May 16. At a dinner
at the British-Russian club of Lon
don tortiglit the speakers urged the
necessity of countering the efforts of
Germany to gain ascendency in Rus
sia. Sir John Norton Grrrffths said
that the government 'in the work of
reconstruction should, not forget to
take advantage of the material Rus
sia could place at the disposal of the
British empire. ' '' ' '
Sir George Buchanan, late ambas
sador to Russia,- fervently prayed
that Russia would come out of the
present chaos and become once more
a great united country allied to Great
Britain.
"We must not despair," he said,
"but look ahead and wait patiently
for the hour or redemption. We must
be prepared for that moment and
hold out a helping hand to Russia.
If Germany is permitted to control
Russia's enormous man-power, natu
ral resources and unexplored wealth',
she would become mistress of the
east, and whatever conditons we
might impose upon her in the' west
she would have won the war.".

BEVERAGE PLANT
ST. I.OIIS, May 10. The eomple
tion of the new $8,000,000 Bcvo plant
in St. Louis is u noticuble war time
industrial achievement. The con
struction of this plant, the largest
and most perfectly equipped of its
kind in the world, was made nccess-
,ary by tile extraordinary demand for
tho highly meritorious non-alcoholic
beverage perfected under the persohul
supervision of August A. Busch, pres
ident of Anhenuser-Biisch, who suc
ceeded his falher, the iato Adoiphus
Itiisch, as head of the many great Anheuser-Busch
industrial institutions.
After years of scientific experi
ments and original research, Bcvo
was created for iwo purposes: As
an aid to the promotion of Mr.
Busch's pluns for a real, sane tem
lerance program in America, based
Upon education and intelligent moral
development ; and to supply the pub
lic with the highest quality of non
alcoholic beverage thnt'scienee and
nulnufacliiriiig skill could produce.
Bcvo has been a positive aid fo the
government in carrying out its mili
tary temperance program, for it has
become the favorite beverage of the
Army and navy, and is extensively
used on battleships and in canton
ments with the approval of the heads
of the navy ami war departments.
Tho Biis.h-Sulzer Bros. Dissel En
gine Co. of St. Louis, of which Mr.
Busch is the principal owner and
president, has been engaged contin
uously and exclusively since America
entered the war in building engines
of the finest and most perfect type
for American submarines, airplanes
and the United States navy. Mr.
Busch takes the position that it is the
patriotic duty of American manufac
turers to operate their plants for the
benefit of the government during the
war, and that private profits should
bo entirely or largely eliminated.
Vnr Worries Upset Health.
It is agreed by medical authorities
that worry affects the digestive, or
gans. When the digestion is out of
order, it throws the whole physical
being out of gear, B. B. Hay ward,
Unadllla, Ga., writes: "Foley Ca
thartic Tablots give me quicker relief
than anything I have' ever tried.."
They relieve biliousness, bad breath,
bloating, gas, indigestion and con
stipation.' No griping or nausea.
