these hospitals, for which all - the
large homes have been taken over
by the government.
' i Services Not in Vain.
"The Oi.iaha society girls who are

course need not think that their serv
ices are in vain, ah tne tngiisn
ociety buds arc acting in the ca
pacity of V. A. D.'s, or voluntary
aids to the regular Red Cross nurses.
Each nurse needs from five to ten
helpers, whose business it is to at
tend to correspondence and recrea
tion for the soldiers, such as pro
viding motor rides and obtaining free
theater tickets. They also clean sur
gical instruments and change bedding.
Thousands of these helpers are
needed at once. ,
Miss Florentine Preston, 18-year-old
daughter of Mrs. Preston, who is
with her mother, acted as a voluntary
aid and had a ward in one of the
large hospitals which she supervised.
It was called tho Florentine ward in
her honor.
Mrs. Preston will leave for Trance
October 1, where she will devote her
time and money to the establishment
of convalescent hospitals fof the
American boys.
"My own son, Harry Campbell
"Preston has joined the aviation corps
and I want to be near him where 1
can take care of him and all the other
American boys when they need com
fort," r- id Mrs. Preston.

And Loot Mexican Town

reaching here today. The town then
was looted and burned. Several

killed including the mayor. Soldiers

Rev. Mr. Savidge Offers
Retreat for the Lovesick
As a new impetus to spooning for
Omaha lads and lassies, Rev.
Charles W. Savidge has decided to
set aside Friday night of each week
as "social night" at his church,
Eighteenth and Burt streets.
"I want all the young men and
girls who are lonely to come to
these meetings," Rev. Mr. Savidge
said. "There will be music nd
they will have s fioe time"
Auto -Intoxication
Explained !
(Bv L. H. Smith, M. D.)
There is no question but that
many people suffer from auto-intoxication
and ptomaine poisoning.
These are big words which are easily
explained. Thru the failure of the
liver to properly perform its work the
twenty-seven' feet of intestines be
come clogged. This stagnation throws
poisons into the blood and the circu
lation, and one suffers from bad
breath, foul taste in the mouth, and
even yellow-coated tongue, headache,
nausea or fullness. Gas often presses
the diaphragm against the heart and
causes pain there, or-acid dyspepsia
follows; often the inactive liver
causes yellow skin and eyes, and one
feels languid, tired and debilitated.
At such times some people are ad
vised by their doctors to take a min
eral oil, ofen called "Russian Oil,"
but experiments by R. F. McDonald
have shown, as lately reported in a
government publication of the U. S.
Public Health Service, that mineral
oil may act as an irritant that pro
duces gastro-intestinal disturbances
and that it may cause tissue prolifer
ation, simulating cancer.
A better method, which I always
advise, is to take as much outdoor ex
ercise as possible, drink half a pint of
hot water morning and night and
plenty of water between meals and
take a pleasant laxative pill occasion
ally. Such a one is made up of the
May-apple, of vegetable calomel, and
other cencentrated herb extracts that
give tone to the bowels. This was
first made and sold- by almost all
druggists nearly 50 years ago as Doc
tor Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. Such
simple means will remove that bug
bear, auto-intoxication, constipation
and the ills that follow, by favoring
healthy action. -Advertisement.

Resinol does heat them.
