IVhen Women
Are Nervous-
Every woman has days when her
lerves are at the breaking point,
then irritability and restlessness in
icate that the enervated nerve cells
f the delicately organized body need
eplenishing. Shattered nerves mar]
he disposition, the appearance end
etard mental progress. Sleepless
ess exhaustion, indecision, faulty
lemory, lack of continuity of
hought, languidness are the natural
esults of depleted nerves, and de
leted nerves are the natural re
ult of excessive drains upon the vi
ality. Then it is a serious and
angerous mistake to resort to the
se of so-called tonics or drug
timulunts. Weak and exhausted
erves need food and nourishment
ot stimulants that lash them into
emporsiry activity. The food and
ourishment advised by present day
hysicians is just one 5-grain tablet
f pure bitro-phosphate taken during
r immediately alter each meal,
imple advice, but its soundness has
een proven over and over again,
loreover the remedy is within the
each of every sufferer from weak
erves. as a large package of bit.ro
hosphate tablets, (sufficient for two
•eeks' treatment) can be obtained
rom Forney, Kennedy, Gorgas, Clark,
r any druggist at reason-
ble cost and every package is ac
cmpanled by a binding guarantee of
itisfaction or money back.

SCHUMANN-HEINK
IS HEARTBROKEN
Four Sons in U. S. Army, One
in U-Boat, Daughter Writes
She is Starving
Kansas City, Mo., Feb. 19. —Moth-
ers, if your hearts ache and your
eyes cloud with tears for your boys
"over there," read what Madam
Schumann-Heinle has had to suffer
and the message of optimism she
brings. What would you do if you
had four sons lighting for Uncle
Sam and one son with the enemy?
"My heart is broken," said Mad
ame Schumann-Heink the other
night at the Hotel Muehlebach.
"My boys, Oh, how I love them,
every one! My Henry, the eldest,
is a petty officer in the navv, sta
tioned at San Pedro, Cal. Ferdinand
is a sergeant in the 340 th Field Ar
tillery at Camp Funston. He was ill
with pneumonia and I had to take
him to Arizona with me. But he
would not stay. He said, 'Mother,
let me go back," and 1 had to let
him go. He is dear to me, but my
country is dearer. '
"I am an American through and
through. I have a son, my poor Au
gust, who was on a (Jerman subma
rine when I last heard of him. He
joined the German navy in 1914, for
he thought his duty lay to the coun
try of his birth. I have not had a
line from him since we declaied war
last April. I hope and pray he may
not be dead. Is this un-American?
Would I be loyal if I forgot my own
flesh.and blood?
"I have a daughter in Germany
also. She writes, 'For mercy's sake
mother, help us. We are starving,
and we need you. But how can I
help? I have four sons in the serv
ice here and I must be loyal to them.
Oh at times my heart is breaking for
my poor boy in that filthy subma
rine. He needs my love more than
the others. But I must smile and be
cheerful. Mothers, you must not
let your sons see the misery in your
hearts. You must send them away
with a smile on your lips and words
of love on your tongue.
Youngest Son Fights For U. S.
"I had to let my youngest son go.
He was just nineteen, and I hoped
he would stay with me. He was big
and strong and could have passed
easily fir twenty-one. But he would
not go in under false pretenses. He
wrote and asked my permission and
I told him to go and God bless him.
I am proud of all of them, my won
derful boys. And I am proud of all
my other boys—those fine, manly
men that make up our army. Out in
California they call me "Mother
Schumann!" The Twenty-first in
fantry is carrying the regimental
flag I gave it.
"But I am not satisfied. I must
do something myself for my coun
try. In May I am going to France
and sing and do whatever else I can
lo bring the atmosphere of home to
my soldiers. lam not too old to do
my bit."
One cannot doubt Madame Schu
mann - Heink's sincerity. She
breathes a spirit of patriotism and
loyalty.
