ECONOMIC ASPECTS OF WAR
Business World's Resubmit Situation
as in Other Great Battles
Recent dispatches from various parts
of the country show that, on the
whole, business is on a solid foun
dation. of course, most lines of trade
were disturbed by the great war of
European nations, but eventually they
must all naturally adjust themselves
to conditions, whatever they may be.
A century ago a great war was car
ried on between France and England,
in which other countries were more or
less involved. After it was over Europe
was prostrated, but the neutral United
States arose to supremacy in com
merce, becoming a maritime power of
the world and gaining a sea trade
which she held until engaging in a
war of her own.
Surely our trade conditions are
working some quick changes, as is also
the map of Europe. To keep in close
touch with geographical changes one
must get the Telegraph's official map
of Europe. This is designed to show
all the strategic points of the present
conflict and it contains a wealth of in
teresting information not to be had
from any other source in such a con

PAIN IN THE BACK
Do not worn* about a pain in your
back. The worry will do you more
harm than the pain. The serious dis
eases of the kidneys seldom or never
produce such pains, while the cause of
most backache is muscular rheuma
tism, which Is painful but never fatal.
Lumbago is a form of muscular rheu
matism, so is stiff neck.
Sufferers from any form of mus
cular rheumatism affecting the joints
should keep the general health at the
highest standard by the use of a non
alcoholic tonic like Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills, and eat good, nourishing food
without too much meat. Proper nu
trition and good blood are the best
means of fighting rheumatism. Medi
cines do not control the disease di
rectly, but a well-nourished system
will often throw it off. Rheumatism
quickly thins the blood. Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills act directly on the blood
and as they build it up and strengthen
the system there is an Increased resist
ance to the"rheumatic poisons. In this
way many rheumatic sufferers have
found complete recovery.
A book. "Building Up the Blood,"
which tells about the treatment of
rheumatism, is free for the asking
from the Dr. Williams Medicine Co.,
Schenectady, N. Y.' Your own druggist
sells Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.—Adver

How She Acquired
' "Feminine Charm "
A nicely-dressed woman sat beside me
in the train. Everyone stared at her.
It was not her beauty of feature that
held our eyes, nor her costume. But
there was something about her face
and expression—I risked it and asked:
"Would you mind telling me how you
keep your complexion so dazzling
pure? Don't think me impertinent, but
you seeiri over 30, yet haven't a line in
your face, and your cheeks are quite
peach-like. How do you do it?"
Laughing, she said: "That's easy; I
remove my skin. Sounds shocking,
doesn't it? But listen. Instead of cos
metics I use only pure mercolized wax,
procurable at any druggist's. I apply
this nightly, like cold cream, washing it
off mornings. This gently absorbs the
soiled, weatherbeaten film-skin, without
Fain or discomfort, thus revealing the
resh, clear underskin. Every woman
has a beautiful complexion underneath,
you know. Then, to ward off wrinkles
I use a face bath made by dissolving
powdered saxolite (one ounce) in one
half pint witch hazel—a harmless
astringent which 'tones' the skin won
derfully. Very simple, isn't it?" I
thought so. I'm now trying her plan
and like it Immensely.—Millicent Brown
in The Story Teller.
