Frozen Faced Rheumatics Melting They Are All Smiling Now
fBy Associated Press) BOSTON, April 4. Hundreds of New England college girls, eager to help Uncle Sam win the war, are or ganizing agricultural units to aid in cultivating and harvesting the record crops that are planned for this section of the country this year. The movement is in charge of the Farm Association in co-operation with the state board of agriculture. At Wellesley college squads of young women, twenty to a squad, will see through the crops on an adjacent farm from planting to harvesting time. Miss Catherine Hughes, daughter of Charles E. Hughes, Republi
can candidate for president in trie last national election, is a member of one squad. ' The land which the Wellesley girls will till comprises about seventy acres and is located near the college. From the volunteers for farm service work a number of young women will be selected to maintain one of the smaller buildings on the college grounds where they and the tillers of the soil will live during the summer. Smith college has organized a large farm unit, under the direction of Miss Josephine A. Clarke, head librarian Fifty undergraduates and alumnae of the last three classes will make up the unit. It will be named after the "Hill Top" Miss Clarke's i'ifty-acre place at Chesterfield, where the crops will be raised. Radcliffe college, too, will have a farm unit. A committee on student volunteers, of which Miss Priscilla Ring is chairman, is working out organization plans. These include the leasing of a nearby farm. In preparation for the summer's work many of the Radcliffe students are taking a free course on vegetable raising.
Scores of young women students in other New England institutions of

Personal Experience Proves
Value of Remedy for Stomach Trouble. Having witnessed the effectiveness of Fruitola and Traxo in relieving his wif of a severe attack of gall stones, after the doctors had failed and declared nothing but an operation would help, Mr. W. C. Diilehay. S13 Morton St., Nashville, Tenn., felt Impelled to publish his testimony in order that others who suffered from stomach trouble might be induced, to at least try this treatment. In an unsolicited statement to the Pinus labcratories Mr. Diilehay says: "After the doctors told us an operation was the enly thing that could relieve my wife's condition, I heard of Fruitola and tried it as a last resort. I am thankful to say that Fruitola is conclusive evidence an operation Is by no means necessary, and hope this wonderful
remedy can be made known to all suffering humanity," Fruitola and Traxo are compounded from the original Edsall formulas at the Pinus laboratories, in Monticello, Ills., and can be purchased in drug stores; a doctor's prescription is not necessary. Fruitola is a pure fruit oil that acts as an intestinal lubricant, and disintegrates the hardened particles that cause so much suffering, discharging and accumulated waste to the sufferer's intense relief. One dose is usualy sufficient to indicate its efficacy. Traxo is a tonic-alternative that is most effective to rebuild and restore the weakened, run-down system. A booklet of special interest to those who suffer with stomach trouble can be obtained by writing to the Pinus Laboratories, Montecello, Illinois.
