September 24-29 to Be I« Known aa “Library Week.” i The week of September 24 to 291 has been designated as “Library War Fund Week,” when a campaign will be conducted by the library war council, appointed by Newton D. Baker, secretary of war, through the American Library Association, to raise $1,000,000 or more with which to buy books for the men Who are defending the nation. It is planned to supply the 55 •camps in the U. S., the troop trains, transports, navy vessels, camps in France, the base hospitals, serving the nurses, ill and wounded, with educational and recreative reading.

/The men who compose our national army and the national guard units are men who have given up their business and professional life to fight for the country. They have been accustomed to recreative reading at home. While serving in the army they will demand more, because they will have more time to devote to reading. The experience on the borfler was that because of a lack of censorship in collecting the books, 80 per cent which were collected and sent to the Mexican border were burned as “rubbish,” and 50 per cent of the remainder were lost or destroyed for want of a caretaker. The Library War Council, with the aid aind co-operation- of the Red Cross, will conduct the campaign through the libraries, library trustees and Red Cross workers of the country. Books will take the place of every immoral practice, including dice, cards, etc., with which armies in previous years have been afflicted. One dollar will keep one book in circulation for one yeas," and pay for the taking care of it. This means that at least twenty-six men in the war srevice will read one book in one year. A million books and more will be necessary to supply the demand. Mrs. Clifford Parkison and son, Thomas, went to Crawfordsville today for a week’s visit.

THE GREAT CONQUEROR Glando Kqjws No Defeat When Given a Fair Chance. Mrs. E. A. Roebuck,* lady 71 years | eld, of Latty, Ohio, says: “I hadtrierf a great number of remedies but found bo relief until I used Glando Tonic. 1 had liver, kidney and heart trouble. I had a swelling, soreness and pain leader my short ribs on my right side. I was constipated and was often distressed with a full or bloated feeling after eating. My heart would palpitate and I could feel pulsation all over my body. At other times my heart would bo weak and I would feel faint I was restless at nights and oftaa awoke in a startled or frightened condition. Since I used Glando Tonic 1 am feeling so well that I have decided to let Glando be my doctor in the future.” Mrs. Roebuck’s illness was caused by self-poisoning. Her liver and kidneys were inactive, which caused poisonous matter to be retained in the body. Thfse poisons weakened th j nervous system, retarded the digestion and affected the heart, the blood became impure and a general debilitated condition resulted. Glando , Tonic ie especially adapted to moot such conditions. It is the only preparation of its kind on the market and is guaranteed to give satisfaction.
