emerged at the back of his
head, and about an ounce of
brain oozed out of the wounds.
His case is considered remark
able by the surgeons.

Every man who can be spar
ed is being discharged. Even
the base hospital force is being
reduced to the minimum. The
ambulance company and Sani
tary corps have been cut down
so that the ambulance company
mess was abandoned.There are
more men in camp, however,
than a week ago, due to arri
vals from other cantonments
and from overseas.
With the Government oper
ating a rehabilitation and vo
cational school at the base hos
pital for wounded men and the
Y. M. C.A. conducting a school
for enlisted men at the hospi
tal “Y” and other buildings,
no soldier will need to be other
than independent. The Govern
ment also has arranged to pro
vide for technical training of
men who show proper progress
and aptitude, even after leav
ing the army. This work is in
charge of the federal board for
vocational education, and the
student will be paid while he is
| being trained. To aid soldiers
in selecting the vocation for
which they are best adapted,
J. A. Puffer, former superin
tendent of the Massachusetts
Industrial School, was sent
here to deliver a series of lec
tures. Mr. Puffer’s work is to
show the individual how to go
about finding his proper place,
and why he should stick to it
once he has found it. Men who
feel they have not been engag
ed in suitable lines of work,
are questioned and then effort
is made 1o put them in touch
with the employers in callings
for which they seem adapted.
Mr. Puffer was sent here by
the Army Y. M. C. A. in the
effort to aid the soldiers to
find their places and to in
crease their earning power

ALL WRONG
The Mistake is Made by Many
Newark Citizens
Look for the cause of back
ache.
To be cured you must know
the cause.
If its weak kidneys
You must set the kidneys
working right.
A resident of this vicinity
shows you how.
Charles W. Moore, Walnut
Ridge, Ark., says: “I have used
different kidney medicines, but
have found Doan’s Kidney Pills
far superior to all others. At
one time my kidneys were
weak and Doan’s strengthened
them and now they are in good
condition. Another of the fam
ily has also taken Doan’s Kid
ney Pills and has been relieved
( . long standing case of kid
ney trouble.”

Weekly Health Talks
What Doctor Pierce Has
Done Por Humanity t
BY DOCTOft CKIPPS.
It has always seemed to me that
Dr. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y., should be
placed near the top when a list of
America’s great benefactors is written.
He studied and conquered human dis
eases to a degree that few realize.
Whenever lie found a remedy that over
came disease, he at once announced it
in the newspapers and told where it
could be bought at a small price. He
did not follow the usual custom of
keeping the ingredients secret, so that
the rich only could afford to buy the
medicine, but openly printed the name
of each root and herb he used. And
so to-day the names of Dr. Pierce and
his medicines are widely known, and
they stand for better health and better
citizenship.
One oi this great physician’s most
successful remedies is known as Doctor
Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. These are
little, sugar-coated pills, composed of
Nlayapple, leaves of aloe, root of jalap—
things that Nature grows in the ground.
These Pellets are safe because they
move the bowels gently, leaving no bad
after-effects, as bo many pills do.
Very often they make a person who
takes them feel like a new man or
woman, for they cleanse the intestines
of hard, decayed and poisonous matter
that accumulates when one is costive.
If you are constipated, by all means
go to your druggist and get some of
Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets. They
may prove to be the very thing your
system requires to make you well ami
happy.
