FIRST SOLDIER KILLED CARRIED NO INSURANCE Friends Provided for Mother of James B. Gresham of Evansville. INDIANAPOLIS, Feb. 6. Corporal James Bethel Gresham, of Evansville, the first Indiana soldier to give his life to the cause of liberty in the great war, did not carry war risk insurance "reports to the contrary notwithstanding which, for the purpose of this article make the moral more obvious. With what greater equanimity the people of Indiana could have glorified in his valor had provision been anticipated for his dependent mother.

which the federal government recog nizes as us just and honorable obligation? Without it, however, she has not. been neglected. Friends have provided a hom and a special measure for her relief has been Introduced Into Congress. , Under the terms of the war risk insurance act, no such legislative process is necessary for the soldiers beneficiaries in the event of his fatality. Uncle 6am is anxious that this measure of appreciation and Justice be applied to the dependents of each nnd every one of hla oniriier hv That is why a special campaign is being inaae to secure applications from every eligible enlisted man and the appeal is. being directed chiefly to those, who may be made quicker to realize the wisdom and propriety of audi protection. Insurance written by the government to protect ita fighting forces and their dependent passed the five billion dollar mark-January 30th. This means that up to that date. C03.97U persons had applied and the average per policy of insurance was $8,397. The government's slogan is "a million men Insured before February 12th' and the Indiana State Council of Defense is co-operating to that end. E. T.

Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a young girl seventeen years old and am considered fairly good-looking and have nice clothes. I have many friends, but it seems that I can never keep them for any length of time. I am interest ing and it iont hard for me to make up with anyone. I can talk on any subject that is brought up and can dance, skate, play all kinds of card games. I can do the things that people usually do, and, in fact, have been told that I am a real sport all the way round, When I first meet people they all think I am awfully nice, but after they , know me they seem to lose all interest in me. I am sure it isn't because I think I am smart or anything like that, as I do not feel that way and detest that kind of thing. D you see anything I can do to keep my friends? I think that one thing Is that I am too frank, but that is my nature and I am afraid that I can't help that. FRIENDLESS SEVENTEEN. Are your thoughts worth while, or are they trivial? If you take a sincere interest in your friends and their affairs they will like you much better than because you talk well, dance, play cards and are accompliEhed in other ways. Try to consider the wants of your friends before your own and see if they don't like you better. I think you will find a great difference in their attitude toward you when they feel your interest in them in place of your demand for interest from them. Dear Mrs. Thompson: (1) I am troubled with constipation a great deal. Can you tell me how to overcome this? Don't tell me to use any, pills or salts because it only helps me for a day and then the next three days I am constipated. I tried bran bread. It is very good but I am simply sick of it. I tried prunes every day for breakfast, but they don't do me any good. Please tell me what to eat and what I should avoid? (2) I am yellow on my face. Will you give me a remedy for that? (3) How can I get rid of granulated eyelids? (4) Do you think that constipation is serious? A DAILY READER. U) Fruit diet, water drinking and Kr;Tins and nuts Instead of heavy, greasy foods, sweets and meats, will soon remedy this condition. Eat the bran bread just as much as you can, because it will certainly be good for you. (2) The yellow condition of your skin is caused by constipation. As A ET! 1 Eases Quickly When You Apply a iitue Musteroie. And Musterole won't blister like the old-fashioned mustard plaster. Just spread it on with your fingers. It penetrates to the sore spot with a gentle tingle, loosens the congestion and draws out the soreness and pain. Musterole is a dean, white ointment made with oil of mustard. It is fine for quick relief from sore throat, bronchitis, Itonsilitis, croup, stiff neck, asthma, neu.'ralgia, headache, congestion, pleurisy, I rheumatism, lumbago, pains' and aches of ! the back or joints, sprains, sore muscles. Druise3, chilblains, frosted feet, colds on the chest (it often prevents pneumonia). Nothing like Musterole for croupy children. Keep it handy for instant use. 30c and 60c jars; hospital size $2.50.

A. O'Grady. soon as you are in a normal condition your skin will clear up. (3) Get some boracic acid eye-wash at the drug store and also an eye cup. Apply the wash at least twice a day when getting up in the morning and before going to bed. You will find the condition of the lids very much improved, and I think you will sea better, too. (4) Constipation is serious unless you watch the condition and do not let it get the better of you If I were in your place I would see a very good Physician and have him prescribe a remedy suited to your individual case. Dear" Mrs. Thompson: Will you you please tell me a recipe for black eye-lash paint that is not injurious to the eyes? THANK YOU. Surface colorings that do not sink into the pores do not Injure, but the chances are they will not Improve. Nevertheless, if there is satisfaction in experiments, it may be done. Burnt cork, obtained by literally charring a piece of cork, is a harmless black. It will hold better if the hair is first slightly touched with glycerine. It comes off easily. Glass Found in Butter Believed Work of German BEDFORD, Ind., Feb. 6. Broken glass was found today in a tub of peacut butter received here by Alva Callahan, a grocer. The glass .was discovered by a customer. He reported the matter to Mr. Callahan and an investigation proved that other broken grass had been mixed with all the butter in tb-3 tub. It is believed that a German sympathizer employed in the factory at Louisville where the butter was manufactured is responsible.

CRITICISM OF A "FAT" STORY We were criticized for telling fat people to "tender" seventy-five cents to their druggists for a large case of Maraola Tablets. Several wrote in saying tl-e use of th word "tender" was incorrect, that "tender" in such a connection raised the impression the druggist might refuse seventy-five cents as insufficient. Now, isn't that odd? A few weeks ago seventy.ffve cents was "tendered" to a Broadway druggist and be did refuse it. That is, he said he had no Marmola Tablets, whereas he did have seven castb But the wholesale house was closjd, it being on Saturday, and be had to prevaricate to protect his tegular cuftomers who absorbed those seven cases later in the day. This elegant pharaceutical adaption of that famous, fashionable fat reducer, the Marmola Prescription (viz., oz Marmola, oz. Fl. Ex. Cascara Aromatic. 4 oz. Peppermint Water), is certainly having a remarkable vogue. Millions of cases of tablets are sold yearly and their fame grows. This is doubUees because of their barmlesspcss (guaranteed by the Marmola Co., 864 Woodward Ave., Detroit, Mich.), end sure ability to remove ten to sixteen ou aces of fat (not flesh) a day without inconvenience, bother, need lor exercising or interference with the taksr's appetite for good things.

Revelations

BY ADELE THE PROBLEM THAT THE COMING OF DICKY'S MOTHER CAUSED I looked at Dicky steadily for a minute before answering him. I was getting a new light upon hl3 character. I had always thought him impulsively generous and kind. Yet here he was calmly planning for the Inconvenience of both his mother and myself, with never a thought of fcacrificlng any of his own comfort. "It bad not occurred to you then." I said icily, "that another solution of the problem might be for your mother to take your room?" Dicky flushed resentfully. "How would that better things?" he demanded. "Two of us would have to dress In one small room, and we would have tq have the couch just the same. I always have had a bed to myself all my life." "So have I, but there would be one advantage your mother would have a room to herself, something which I should think her son would deem desirable." I could not keep my disapproval of Dicky's selfishness from m;t voice. "Look here," began Dicky hotly, but I went on as if I had not heard him. "However, I will not ask you for such a sacrifice," I said smoothly. "I will give, my room to your mother, sleep on a couch in the dining room, as you suggest, dress in the-bathroom and keep my belongings in some empty room in the building, I know there must be some family in the building who would be willing to rent roe a small room." Dicky stared for a minute. Then he broke into a disagreeable laugh. "Gee, what a martyr she's going to be!" he said as he reached for his coat. "Just going to tie herself to the stake and roast over a coal fire, isn't she?" I was glad he did not try to kiss me as he went ouL I think I should have struck him if he had attempted it. How It Happened That Katie "Gave Notice" I poured myself another cup of coffee, drank it mechanically, and touched the bell for Katie to clear away the breakfast things. I did not try to disguise to myself the fact that I was extremely miserable. The announcement that Dicky's mother was coming to live with us had upset me, and the exhibition of Dicky's selfishness which I had just witnessed added to my unbappiness. The day at Marvin, on which I had so counted, had been a disappointment to me on account of the attention Dicky had paid to Miss Diaper. I reflected bitterly to myself that I might just as well have spent the afternoon with Mrs. Smith of the Lotus Club, discussing the history course which she wished me to undertake for the club. The thought of Mrs. Smith reminded OLD-TIME C0J.D CURE DRINK TEA! Get a email package of Hamburg Breast Tea, at any pharmacy. Take a tablespoonful of this hamburg tea, put a cup of boiling water upon it, pour through a sieve and drink a teacup full at any time.

GARRISON ) me of the promise I had made her when leaving for Marvin that I would call her up on my return and tell b&f when I could meet her. I resolved to telephone ber at once. "You no want notting more, Missis Graham?" Katie's distressed voice stopped me as I rose from the table. "Nothing more this morning, thank you, Katie." I returned, smiling at her. Katie's genuine Interest in me and concern for my welfare is most comforting sometimes. "You no eat much as little ca-na-ry bird," she grumbled as she cleared the table, and indeed her complaint was somewhat justified. I had only toyed with the food on my plate. I debated for a long minute before calling Mrs. Smith, trying to decide what attitude I should adopt toward her. When she had first telephoned jne, making the appointment to meet me at the little tearoom, I had been charmed with her manner and voice. Then she had abruptly broken the appointment, giving the trivial excuse that the hour she had given me was the one her masseuse usually gave her. - But even that action had not prejudiced me against her as had her voice and manner when the next morning she had called me up, the masseuse had disappointed her and that she would like her original appointment When I told her that I was just leaving with my husband for a day In the country she had been almost offensive. - , Evidently she expected me to defer to her whims. Perhaps I was panicstricken as I thought of it perhaps she had reconsidered her decision to offer me the leadership of the study course! I had not realized how much I had counted on this chance to make some money of my own, until the possibility that I might lose it struck me. But my self-respect soon asserted itself. Even for the money which I wanted so much I could not allow Mrs. Smith to ride rough-Bhod over me. I drew a long breath as 1 took down the telephone receiver. I felt as if I BLAME THE WOMAN MAN DRINK Of Cleveland. He Guarantees) m Simple Home Treatment Given Without The Knowledge of the Drinker. Cleveland. O- No wife has a right to let her husband drink; for alcoholism Is a disease and a drunkard is a sick man, says Druggist Brown of Cleveland. A woman can cure this disease stop a drinking husband in a few weeks for half what he would spend on liquor in the same time. The habit can be broken and the disease cured. Thousands of cases prove it and every community has its reformed drunkard. Druggist Brown says the right time to stop the drink habit is at its beginning. Left to run its course it will deaden the fine sensibilities of the roan you love. Begin with the first whiff of liquor on his breath, but don't despair if he has already gone from bad to worse until he has become a rumsoaked set. Druggist Brown knows the cures of strong drink for he himself has been a victim.
