The food. administration for Rhode Island Monday made public its first “fair price list” issued at the request “Regiilar as Clockwork” - You can foretell the future You say “The man who could foretell illness would make a for- tune!” Of course no man can— in the sense you mean. But you can tell pretty accurately what to expect your own body to do. How? Get this simple physiology : Your bodf machine has to be t repaired. It also must have fuel to supply heat and energy. Your food supplies both repair materia and fuel. But a furnace always produces ashes and clinkers. If these accumulate, the furnace becomes clogged and cannot work properly. If your bowels become clogged— you suffer from constipation. Perhaps you hurry to work or plx{ and neglect to obey Nature’s call. Waste matter stagnates in the bowels. You go right on eat- ing, drinking, working. What happens? The constipation be- comes established. Waste matter undergoes decay, fermentation and germ action. Poisons are formed, absorbed,carried all over the body. They attack the weakest part of you first. Then you know you're sick. In reality you’ve been gettingsicksince Yyou nussed that first movement. If {‘ou want to keep well—wholly well, all the time, so that you're on your toes every day, remoce that waste. Many people take pills, castor oil, purgative mineral waters to force the bowels to act. Theee act, but they irritate, tire out the intestinal muscles, make the tzouble worse. Others take “salts,” which attract water to the intestines and flush the bowels—about as gently as a fire hose. A re-action follows that makestheintestinesdryerthan ever and aggravates the constipation. You needn’t do this and weaken your system just because all of your ancestors did. The Nujol Treatment moves the waste regularly, and easily. It is a purely mechanical process, ab- solutely harmless, based on. a simple principle — that you can move a softened mass out of a tube mcre easily than a hard, dry one. It doesn’t gripe—you won’t know you have taken anything until af- ter a few days your bowels move at the regular hour. It makes you “regular as clockwork.” Don't try to foretell illness. Fore- stall it. * Don’t wait until you gre sick. Keep well now. Your drug. gist has Nujol. Nuyjol R’eg U. S. . Pat. Off. For Cons’z‘zibatz’on ¢ 8 . Warning: Trade Mark.

Hamilton (chairman), George H. Pet- tee, Allan McMurtie, B. J. Murray, George W. Amison, CHarles. C. Hall, Mrs. George W. Benedict,’ Mrs. John Capron and Roderick McGarry. It is announced that a “fair” price list will be issued every week. The wholesalers report weekly to the food administration, and from these reports the cost of food to the retailer is defi- nitely fixed. The “fair profit” is then added, to arrive at the “fair” selling price. The object of the fair price list, Mr. Coats says, is to stabilize prices. “Only by co-operation can the move- ment be made fully successful,” said Mr. Coats. “The purchasing public is asked to watch for the fair price list, and to make sure that the dealer keeps within the ‘margins allowed. It is hoped that every attempt to- over- charge will be reported to Mr. Hamil- ton of the price committee,.and inves- tigations will follow.” - All members of the Royal Arcanum under 21 years of age in Westerly and elsewhere will be organized into junior councils and given military instruc- tion, according to a statement by C. Archer Williams, supreme regent. Judge Willlams says that in thie way the order can be of service both to the country and the young men. Trained military men will give this instruction in the large cities of the country. The age limit for membership in the order was recently lowered to 16 years Every grand regent throughout the country has been asked to institate a junior council in every important city.

Capt. John S. Biackmar, who is with the medical corps _with the American Expeditionary Force, has written . the following letter to his family in this city: July 21 I am in my office underground, a piano going in the dininz room next door, and within three miles of La Mort Homme. Left the last place at 9 last night, and after a march of about eight miles over a ridge and through two villages, arrived in the most_wonderful place I ever saw. After winding down a long hill, at the foot of which a row of dead trees on either side, blasted by gas two years ago, stood up as sauni senti- nels of the ruined village we were en- tering—shells occasionally going over as if to warn us we were entering some devil's den, a sharp turn to the left, and we were in the village, or what had ence been a village, now cnly piles ‘of stone. I was dismayed to think my post was to be here, but, following my mar, went up the street to the place desig- nated, and called out for Reid, my sergeant, whom I had sent up the day/ before. ‘Yes, Captain,” and almost at my féet appeared Reid, with a shaded candle, and an English-speaking Frenchman of the regiment I was re lieving. “Where did you pop from was my first thought, but thue Frenchman took mv little grip and blankets, and showed me to my room |while R—— looked after the men. ‘Well, of all the surprises! Into a shed, down a flight of twelve steps into ‘a heavily-beamed, white- washed room with bunks, mattress, cement stove, table, phons, easy chair, mirror, shelves, etc’ 1 learned this morning, that I have three feet of ce- nient and railroad iron on top; have a twenty-bed whitewashed room for an’ infirmary, a finely appointed drug room and dispensary, office, diming- room with piano, kitchen and.rooms for my men.. All are underground, and cennected by boyaux, with win- Gowe in all but the sleeving rooms. Lieut. B—— was down today from Lis. post near La Mort Homme, and told some queer tales. His post is in the cellar of the ruins of a chateau a-mile from here. The original cha- teau: was built in 1676, but is now a mass .of stone. Has ten feet of cement and stone for a roof, and four “rooms” ifor all,the battalion staff, infirmary, cte. It is lighted by the regular elec- tric " light plant of the chateau. It wag owned by the co-conspirator of Bolo Pasha, who was shot for treason a few months ago. This man was imprisoned for .many years, B— states that in wazlking over his_territory he can see human skulls and boneg of all kinds, which have been exposed by the elements, and by shells. They are. the remains of the attempt here two years ago. This country is a broad rolling one, sparsely wooded, and from one hill vou can look for miles. So can tke| Boche, and - their extra eyes, the bal- lcons, are generally up. The queer thing ajgut my place is that you can- rot see 1t from a distance of a quar- ter ‘of. a mile. There is a French Y. M. C. A. here that sells hot chocolate | and tea. and an Américan Red Cross hut that gives it away. It is in charge of some man I have not yet seen. . - Capt. B—— and Capt. M—— have just been in in the rain to say “Au revoir and bon sante,” as thev are leaving to go to headquarters to in- struct another American regiment. They are fine men, and I am glad they “Au revoir.” The Frenen officers 1 have met are for the most part very fine men, absolutely courageous, and patient with our shortcomings. Am invited to dinner tomorrow with the surgeon of the French artillery. Heard from .the paymaster’s clerk yesterday of two men in a shell hole with a machine gun in the last drive. One man had his hand shattered, and worked the gun, while the cther, with a broken leg, fed the gun. Both were working, actively, and kicked strenu- cusly at being evacuated. The Ger- man soldiers who opposed us in that action are afraid of us. Winter will give them time to think it over. JOHN. German Prisoners Surprised. Regimental Sergeant Major Paul C. Carpenter of the headquarters com- {pany, 302nd field artillery, has writ- ten the following letter to his mother: Somewhere in France, 2 Aug. 4, 1918. ' Dearest Mother: Since writing you on board the transport we have reach- ed the “other side” safely. We landed in England and marched to a rest camp where we stayed a few days to get rid of our sea legs so to speak. I had a chance to see quite a little of England and things interested me a great deal. I saw some pretty as well as old cities and also some pretty country. I had a pass for London, but owing to the limited time I didn't take advantage of it but instead visited an ancient city near .the camp and saw some very interesting buildings. One was an old cathedral that evidently was Luilt a great many years ago as one date on the wall was 1020. It was a wonderful piece of rock and shows marks of wear but as old as it is they were holding” services in it the. day I was there. Other: things of interest are thought encugh of me to come to sav : the * The Boston Store.

The boys will go into a shop and buy some small article and he will count his change and if you ask him how much it costs he will frankly tell you he doesn’t know which is true, as I am one of the boys. England has some wonder- ful cities and equally wonderful coun- try as I have seen quite a good deal of it as we passed through. We are at present at a rest camp | quite a distance behind the lines in France. France is a ggreat country and has cities that are as interesting as those in Englahd. It seems to be a great place for flowers and as we, marched along the people passed all kinds of flowers .to us showing how glad they were that we were here to fight be- side their boys. We have already seen a lot of Ger- man prisoners at work here in France and as we marched along they looked at us with a look of astonishment on their faces evidently surprised to know that the United States had so many men to send over here to fight. Evi- dently their comrades behind the.lines are equally surprised these days if all' the news is true,that we hear. No deubt vou have been reading the same good news in the papers at home. I had. the good fortune to get a New York Herald today which is published in Paris and it had a lot of news from the United States and just think the baseball scares,’and. 1 read every word of. it. There are a lot of interesting things that I would like to. write you but at{ this time it is impossible to do se owing to the strict censorship that has | to be maintained but I will tell them to you when I return. ¢ I am feeling fine and hope, that all . at home are equally as well.
