That's what you say when Nature protests against your activities these Spring days. You are drowsy; your joints ache; you hate to work. It isn't because of the weather. It's the fact that your system is clogged; your blood overloaded with the stagnant waste of the winter. Clear up your system and note the difference. You Need a Good Tonic ; . Something that will purify your blood, in vigorate your digestion, overcome the stagnation, which is usually catarrhal, and arouse your bodily activities. , "Spring Fever" is Nature's way of say ing you need Peruna, a tonic with laxative qualities, that will gently stimulate body functions, restore appetite, invigorate digestion, and assist Nature to drive out all catarrhal and inflamed con ditions. , N The tiqmid meeSceiM k hut to yomt hommt Ikt taeest form can M earrhd anmtd with yon for immeaVafe bm.

Boys in Front Line Trenches to Write To Mothers May 12 Mothers' Day," Sunday, May 12, will have unusual signifance this year be cause of the recognition it gives to the thousands of mothers who have given their sons to the ranks in the cause of democracy. ' Congress has made the day a na tional flag day. With the assistance of military and naval authorities in the United States, the country's ships at sea and commanding its troops abroad, with the aid of Red Cross and other patriotic organiza tions, the day is to be observed by an interchange of greeting between mothers and their sons with the colors. Honoring mothers of their memory through some distinct act of kindness a visit, a letter, or the wearing of a white carnation are the marks of Mother's Day observance which have been widely adopted in North and South America, England, Europe and in Australia. The white carnation has been rec ognized as the special flower for Mother's Day. Its whiteness is held symbolic ot purity; its form, beauty: its fragrance, love; its wide field of growth, charity; its lasting qualities, faithfulness the embodiment of the virtues of motherhood. Mothers may expect letters from abroad early in June. Soldiers in the front-line trenches will be given everv opportunity to write a few lines which will be rushed to their destination. The letters will be market "Mother's Letter" and will be given preference over other mail matter. ' Omaha Girl Wins Cheers in England "Miss Higgins Wins Cheers," is the heading of an article in the New York Times of May 2. Miss Joy Higgins, daughter of Mrs. O. A. Hig gins, who is a member of the labor delegation now touring England, is the speaker so enthusiastically re ceived. The commission visited the royal arsenal at Woolwich, England, the day before and was given a royal welcome in every shop. Miss Higgins spoke in a large can teen filled with workers, and when she finished telling these Englishwomen just what their. American sisters were accomplishing, the girls broke into cheers- shouting "Good Old Glory 1" ( The delegation will leave very soon for France, where President Poin caire, General Joffre and other no tables will Welcome them.

Beerkle is "Lady of Red Cross Decorations" Not all the war decorations are given on the other side of ihe ocean, for as the days fco by, significant em blems are appearing on the Snowy whiteness of many Red Cross aprons worn by Omaha women, and very often, white veils are being ex changed for blue. To the casual ob server these insignia may mean nothing, but to those versed in Red Cross lore every little band and cross has a meaning. Mrs. J. F. Beerkle wears a striking arm band. The letters stand for "American Red Cross Women's Vol unteer Aid," and they mean that the wearer has taken the oath of alleg iance to her government just as a sol dier does, when he enlists in the army. Twenty of our patriotic women took this oath last September aftd are the proud possessors of one of these armbands. See the Interesting stripe on Mrs. Beerkle'a pocket. It is veritably a service stripe for, although it may not mean service under fire, it does mean that this little woman has biven 130 hours of her time working on hospi tal garments. Mrs. Beerkle is assist ant vice president of the hospital gar ments department and every Monday, Thursday and Saturday you may see her at the Masonic temple assisting Mrs. Arthur Mullen in this most im portant work. Omaha nurses who are part of the personnel of Nebraska base hospital No. 49, now training at Camp Custer, Battle Creek, Mich., write to Omaha relatives that they are enjoying the first part of their work. They have been at the camp nearly two weeks. The rank of second lieutenant has been conferred on them. They are the Misses Nelle Hawk, Mario Johnson, Bess Anson, Ella Kent, Eva Rogers, Connell and Mil dred Chapin.
