These fisures show the expenditures by districts, and account for nearly $5,000,000,000 of the total outlay on contracts for material and other ordnance requirements. Of a total of $4,835,003,000 allo- cated tnrough the thirteen ordnance | districts of the country, $345,800,000 went to the Cincinnati and St. Louis districts, which embrace the South- ern states. The remainder—approxi- mately $4,500,000,000—went to the cleven Northern districts. The bal- | ance of the expenditures for ordnance purposes, aggregating $7,600,000,000, | were allocated through the ordnance department at Washington. Owing | to the character of the contracts made at Washington it has been dif- ficult to apportion these expenditures, | and experts say it will he many months before the final figures by districts will be obtainable. Many of these contracts are already the subject of war claims. The Washington office includes the fourteenth ordnance district, com- prising the States of North and South Carolina, where little or no ordnance work was done, and the State of Virginia, where the record shows only | one plant for the manufacture of smokeless powder and nitrocellulose, and where a loading plant had to be erected. The “overhead” for ord- nance work throughout the country, the pay for ordnance personnel in all ordnance districts and plants, and the purchase of sites were met from the | total of $7,500,000,000 disbursed | through the Washington office.

It is always well; in any of its illnesses, to look for this cause. The diet may have to be changed, but before good can result from it, the bowels must be moved. The mother has the choice of many medi- cines—cathartics, purgatives, bitter-waters, pills, physics, etc. But the little body doesn’t need such harsh remedies for they wrench the system and do only temporary good, so often followed by an unpleasant reaction. A better plen is to employ a mild, gentle laxative of which only a little is required. There is a combination of simple laxative herbs with pepsin sold by druggists under the name of Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin that thousands of mothers have used successfully for baby's constipation and its accompany- ing ills, such ‘as belching, wind colic, rest- lessness, sleeplessness, etc. ‘The nursing mother will also find it ideal for herself, and it is especially important that ~she be free from constipation. Syrup Pepsin is guaranteed to do as prom- ised or the druggist will refund the money. Thousands of cautious families have it in the house, secure against the little ills.
