A Huntington Druggist Lauds Nerv-Worth
'Most Universally Satisfactory Medicine We Ever Sold," Says W. J .McGulre.

Mr. McGulre, who is proprietor of the Boggess Drug Store at Huntington. W. Va., a "Nerv-Worth druggist"
now for about three years, has sold thousands of bottles of this, famous family tonic. And this is what he says about it: "We cannot afford to guarantee or . recommend any preparation that has not thoroughly proven itself to pos sees unusual and striking merit In view of this our statement regarding Nerv-Worth should be taken as conservative and strictly within the tfVh in ever respect. IT IS THE MOST UNIVERSALLY -SATISFACTORY MEDIDINE WE HAVE EVER SOLD. The results obtained by its use are in many cases almost marve-

c must see that all bread when once made Is used in Its entirety.
For home consumption to waste bread is to contribute strength
to the enemy. To save bread is to help in the fight. Those who handle wheat and -flour and those who sell bread and other foods made from wheat will hare to work together to make the maximum amount of saving in manufacture. But no matter how careful tbey may be, it is only by the assistance of the consumer in the home
that the savins, absolutely needed, can be brought about. 1 , A. wider krowledge of the farts in regard to breac" making, bread keeping, and bread as an article Of fife; would bring atom the complete use of every particK of bread brought into the hen e. 1 hope we may be cdr '-ateti rlurir.:-' t'.t? enr'.y period of the war to the full necessity of jtonie care and home saving in this vital .XI a t i.- 'J.The world supply of wheat is short and wo s!:all have a great difficulty in transporting tny surplus that may exist in any part of the world to the spot where it is nicst needed. Above all, America can feed Eu-. rope, and it must do so in spite of the submarine menace. We shall have some surplus even though we continue our former habits of the free use and often the waste of wheat and wheat products, but we must have a large surplus and this large surplus we can acquire only by rigid economy in the use of wheat; ' The United States is just coming to a realization of the world's food problem. The unusual and
; unique conditions associated with the Great World War have had a profound effect upon the production, distribution and consumption of foodstuffs. The world had been linked together in such a way that there was a flow of foodstuffs, particularly grain, to the point where they were most'Heeded. With the changes brought about by placing several millions of men on the battle line and with the submarine effect on shipping, all of this has materially changed, as far as Europe is concerned. In America there always has been a surplus of foodstuffs and we have contributed materially to the support of other countries. We have never had to make a particular effort to conserve our food supply or to avoid hunger and starvation by thrift. We now find ourselves the one great scuroe of the surplus food that must reach Europe, if we are to win the war. That surplus will be scanty, particularly this year, because of the comparative failure of the winter wheat, and it can only be increased by the most conservative use of our supplies and by the most restricted use of food by our European Allies. The problem of feeding ourselves and feeding our own army abroad and of feeding our Allies is the most pressing one that is immediately before each and evfjry individual. We are asking the women of the country to be the first to organize themselves for food conservation. We hope to have all of them sign a pledge to follow our directions, which will be simple and few, which will, if carried out, have a marked effect upon the food which we can export It will also contribute materially to getting the prices of foods upon a more satisfactory basis. The war has disturbed the ordinary commercial machinery and prices have gone far beyond the nprmal. This is the effect of lack of control in this country and the abnormal call for food from other countries. "To save is to serve" is to be the motto of the great grop of women and men associated with us as members of the Food Administration. Their aim will be to live wisely, but not too well, to eat freely but to avoid waste, to eat vegetables and food products grown near home and to save staples for export. Those in charge of the food products of the country have a particular responsibility upon them, so that the maximum amount can be obtained from existing food supply. Bakers should enoouraTge the economical use' of the bread made from wheat and encourage the use of other flours in bread-making and by so doing will render ttveir country a real service. I feeL that the bakers will join in with all other groups of Americans in doing their part in national service. I feel confident that the splendid volunteer spirit of service of the American people will demonstrate Itself in solving our food problem and that all American producers, manufacturers, merchants and consumers will work together towards a common end.

He licked his teeth suggestively, as wolf does when he contemplates a
meal. . Then, as an afterthought, as though ashamed, "I love thee! Thou
art a man after my own heart! But I am her man! Walt and see!" i
The mullah in the arena, blinking;
with his lashless eyes, held both arms
up for silence In the attitude of a Christian priest blessing a congregation. The guards backed his silent
demand with threatening rifles. The
din died to a hiss of a thousand whispers, and then the great cavern grew still, and only the river could be heard
sucking hungrily between the smooth
stone banks.
"God is great!" the mullah howled. "God is great!" the crowd thunder
ed in echo to him; and then the vault took up the echoes. "God is great is great is great ea ea eat!"
"And Muhammad Is His prophet!"
howled the mullah. Instantly they answered him again.
"And Muhammad is His prophet!" . "His prophet is His prophet is His prophet!" said the stalactites, In loud barks then in murmurs then in awe-struck whispers. That seemed to be all the religious ritual Khinjan remembered or could tolerate. Considering that the mullah, too, must have killed his man in cold blood before earning the right to be there, perhaps It was enough too much. There were men not far from King who shuddered. "There are - strangers ! " announced the mullah, as a man might say, "I smell a rat!" But he did not look at anybody in particular; he blinked at the crowd. "Strangers!" said the stalactites, in an awe-struck whisper. "Show them! Show them! Let them stand forth!" "Oh-h-h-h-h! Let them stand forth! said' the roof. The mullah bowed as if that idea
were a new one and he thought It better than hi3 own; for all crowds
love flattery.
"Bring them!" he shouted, and King suppressed a shudder for what proof
had he of right to be there, beyond
Ismail's verbal corroboration of a lie? Would Ismail He for him again he wondered. And if so, would the lie he
any use?
Not far from where King sat there
was an immediate disturbance in the crowd, and a wretched-looking Balu
chi was thrust forward at a run, with arms lashed to his sides and a pitiful
look of terror on hla face. Two more
Baluchis were hustled along after him
protesting a little, but looking almost
as hopeless.
Once In the arena, the guards took
charge of all three of them and lined
them up facing the mullah, clubbing
them with their rifle-butts to get quicker obedience. The crowd began
to be noisy again, but the mullah signed for silence. "These are traitors!" he howled,
with a gesture such as Ajax might have used when he defied the light
ning. The roof said "Traitors!" "Slay them then!" howled the crowd delighted. And blinking behind the
horn-rimmed spectacles, King began to look about busily for hope, where
there did not seem to be any. "Nay, hear me first!" the mullah

ly now and feel altogether different in
the morning from what I did before.

howled, and his voice was like a wolf's at hunting time. "Hear, and be warned! The crowd grew very still, but King saw that some men licked their lips, as if they well knew what as coming.
These three men came, and one
was a new man!" the mullah howled. "The other two were his witnesses! All three swore that the first man came from slaying an unbeliever In the teeth of written law. They said he ran from the law. So, as the custom is, I let all three enter!"
"Good!" said the crowd. "Good!"
They , might have been ve thousand judges, judging in equity, bo grave they were. Yet they licked their lips.
"But later, word came to me saying
they are liars. So again as the custom is I ordered them bound and held!"
"Slay them! Slay them!" the crowd
yelped, gleeful as a wolf-pack on a
scent and abandoning solemnity as suddenly as it had been assumed. "Slay them!" They were like the wind, whipping in and out among Khinjan rocks, savage and then still for a minute, savage and then still. "Nay, there is a custom yet!" the mullah howled, holding up both arms. And there was silence again like the lull before a hurricane, with only the great black river talking to itself. "Who speaks for them? Does any 6peak for them?" "Speak for them!"
aid the roof. There was silence. Then there was a murmur of astonishment Over opposite to where King sat the mullah stood up', who the Path an had said was "Bull-with-a-beard" Muhammad Anim. "The men are mine!" he growled. His voice was like a bear's at bay; it was low, but It carried strangely. And as he spoke he swung his great head between his shoulders, like a bear that means to charge. "The proof they brought has been stolen! They had v good proof! I speak for them! The men are mine!"

If you want to experiment on your skin.
there are plenty of treatments to experiment with. But if you want something the value of which has been proven by years and years of successful use, if you want a treatment that doctors prescribe constantly, that you know
