DOTS Help the Stomach Digest Your Food When the stomach fails to digest and distribute that which is eaten, the bowels become clogged with a mass of waste and refuse that fer- ments and generates poisons that are gradually forced into the blood, causing distress and often serious illness. Most people naturally object to the drastic cathartic and purgative agents that shock the system. A mild, gentle laxative, positive in its effect and that will quickly relieve constipation is Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin, sold by druggists at fifty cents and one dollar a bottle. It does not gripe or cramp, but acts easily and pleasantly and is there- fore the most satisfactory remedy for children, women and elderly bersons. For a free trial bottle write to Dr. W. B.

Newcastle, Eng., April British prime minister, Herbert Asquith, who so oftén during = his premiership has had to gloss over statements of his cabinet colleagues, in an appeal last night to the work- men of the northeast coast to spced up the output of munitions of war, re- frained from all references to the drink question and declared that there had been no slackness on the part of either the employees or the em- ployers. The necessity for greater effort, he said, arose from the fact that an enor- mous quantity of ammunition was be- ing expended, to the success of It cruiting among the workers and the consequent shortness of skilled labor. This was being remedied, and the premier foreshadowed the enlarge- ment of the present plants and the utilization of factories otherwise en- gaged to do government work, with proper compensation. The appeal was addressed almost as much to the employers as to the men, although the meeting was en- tirely for the workers, and the man- ufacturers were told in plain terms that they must not expect to make undue profits from government con- tracts. JITNEY OR TROLLEY CAR. Public Must Choose Says Connecticut Company at Hearing. Hartford, April 21.—That the pub- lic cannot expect to have both “jit- ney” and adequate trolley service at the same time, and that one must eventually displace the other, was the claim made by attorneys for the Con- necticut company at the hearing be- fore the judiciary committee of the legislature yesterday afternoon on the proposal to regulate the automobile 'busses which have sprung up in con- siderable numbers in all the larger cities of the state during the last sev- eral weeks. “Eventually,” says the trolley company, in a) statement filed with the committee, “the public cgn have jitney service only in substitu- tion for trolley service, which it will displace. The continuation of pres- ent conditions will soon result in such substitution, and if the public have to rely on jitney service, in whole or in part, they are entitled to have the regularly and continuance of such service assured.” The hearing was a big one, the big gathering being made up principally of friends of the ‘“jitneys.” The trol- ley company was bitterly attacked by several of the speakers, who laughed at the claim that they wanted the 'busses regulated to protect the pub- lic, and charged that the previous at- titude of the company had made the public welcome competition of the character furnished by the jitneys. U. S. ARMY BIPLANE. Fired Upon by Carranza Troops in Matamoros. Brownsville, Texas, April 21.—A United States army biplane, flying over Fort Brown, near here, was fired upon yesterday afternoon by Carranza soldiers in Matamoros. About twenty rifle shots and fifty shots from a ma- chine gun on the Mexican side, it is believed in army circles here, were fired at the aircraft. The machine landed safely. The biplane was piloted by Lieut. B. Jones, with Lieut. T. D. Milling as observer. Both were unaware of the incident until they landed about 5:3 o’clock. The biplane was not struck, but one bullet hit the army wireless station at Fort Brown and another was picked up near the city hall in this city.

(Correspondence of the Associated Press.) Brussels, April 16.—General von Rissing, German governor of Belgium, las completed and put into effect a number of rules controlling the labor of women and children. The absence of so many men at the front has led to be constant danger that the women, in attempting to take their places, will do themselves harm by overworking.

Charges for loading and unloading cargoes and other port expenses incurred in the examination of suspected goods are assessed against the owners of the cargoes or ship.

Boston, 21.—"1 would as lief have this country over- run by nation of the earth as to have it under the bondage of mili- tarism,” Bishop Willlam Law- rence in the course of his address be- fore the annual convention of Episcopal diocese of Massachusetts today. The bishop devoted a large part of his address to a consideration of the relations of the United States to the war in urope. He said in part: Fighting For Lives. “Any effort now made by represen- tatives of this country to the warring nations urging them towards immedi- ate peace would seem to me not oniy | futile, but likely to weaken such in- fluence as we may have after the war. These nations are fighting for their lives and are not now in a mood to listen to peace proposals from spec- tators. “We all have a duty to see that the money spent by this nation for defense and armament is well spent. We may | well be careful, however, how that in- terest may lead us on to an inerease of force and expenditure. If behind | a pressure for stronger defense is subtle distrust of the motives of other nations, it is time to call a halt. Mil- itarism i itocrocy. It cannot liv people with democracy. I April personally every said the Worthy Instance of Democracy. “Our first duty is to show the world by the purity, efficiency and stabili- ty of our own government in villa city, state and nation that we are worthy instance of demrocrac: We may do something to prepare a public opinion for the establishment of courts for judicial decision of inter- national controversies. The biggest step that the people of this country can take for the strength and defense of nation is the discour- agement of their own example of the habits of intemperance.” Unemployment Problem. A report on the unemployment problem prepared by the social service commission of the diocese was one of the matters set for discussion at the | convention. The commission in its re- port expressed the opinion that “there | might well be a closer and more effec- tive co-operation on the part of the clergy with the secular agenc for | securing employment and for relief.” A proposal to incorporate the bishop | and trustees, for the purpose of cen tralizing the administration of separ- ate existing funds and further devel- oping the work of the diocese and a plan for pensioning the clergy were to come before the convention. | vention MRS.
