BRITONS ARE LEANER. Hard Work and Plain Living Reduce John Bull's Girth. The medical experts are telling us that the British, since the war be- gan, have become leaner, says the London News. Generally speaking, John Bull, owing to hard work and plain living, is now able to take in his belt three holes. The well-known vendor of a "figure reductor" for self-conscious persons, questioned on this by a Daily News interviewer, admitted a decline in sales. A test case was obviously "Twenty Stun Bill," who used to loiter, fairly actively, at a corner where bus horses assembled in South London, and still haunts the place. "Old Bill?" queried a motor -bus driver. ."Not so staht? Not 'arf. No treating nah. Not so much beer." Food for thought there. A panel doctor, in a large way of business, confirmed the general state- ment of a leaner Britain. "I don't think there's either loss or gain in it. Many people are thinner because they are in poor condition, owing to worry, or high food prices, or both. Noth- ing knocks the tissues about like worry. And then a large number of well-nourished people are working so much harder than usual that they've lost a good stone in the past year. But they're the better for it, like the sound man who gets lean in his army training—if that isn't overdone or hurried, as I fear it is, however, in not a few instances." names and the common chaff of the : Glasgow fined £2 each and handed over to the military authorities. regiments.

CAN'T KEEP OUT OF WAR. American Youth Resists All Efforts to Send Flim Horne. Norman Bruce Wallis, an. eighteen - year -old American from New Orleans, enlisted as a private in the British Army some months ago. Three at- tempts have been made by his family,' through the American Embassy in, London, to get him back to the United States, but the lad is still in the army --fighting in France with a Scot- tish regiment. When he was released from his regiment the first time and arrange- ments rrange ments made for his passage to Am- erica, he "missed the connection".. by enlisting in another regiment. All the formalities for his release were again gone through; ana an official of his embassy personally installed him in the home of some friends to await the sailing date bf the boat in which his passage had been taken. Wallis, however, returned to his old regiment, where, through a misunder- standing, he was arrested for deser- tion. Punishment was averted by of- ficial explanations, and to -clay Wallis ...now known as Norman Macgregor Bruce --=1s with his unit in. France, They say money talks.

The Folly Of Taking Digestive Pills Mrs. C. E.

Mrs. Stilwell is one of thousands of mothers who always keep the Tablets on hand. Once a mother has used them for her little ones she would use nothing else.

The habit of taking digestive pills after meals makes chronic dyspeptics of many thousands of men and women because artificial digestants, drugs and medicines have practically no influence upon the excessively acid condition of the stomach contents which is the cause of most forms of indigestion and dys- pepsia. The after dinner pill merely lessens the sensitiveness of the stomach nerves and thus gives a false sense of freedom from pain. If those who are subject to indigestion, gas, flatulence, belching, bloating, heartburn, etc., after eating would get about an ounce of pure bis- urated magnesia from their druggist and take a teaspoonful in a little water after meals. there would be no further. neces- sity for drugs or medicines because bi- surated magnesia instantly neutralizes stomach acidity, stops food fermenta- tion and thus insures normal, painless digestion by enabling the stomach to do its work without hindrance. : Unfeeling.

Although the introduction of wire- less telegraphy has somewhat lessen- ed the responsibility placed upon the cruiser for scouting 'work, she is still regarded as the "eyes of the Fleet." For the object of scouting work there is a special type of scouting cruiser in existence. The armored cruiser's advent has almost extended that class of ship to be considered to come within the scope of the battleship: Indeed, in some cases they are so perfectly equipped in aggressive policy.as to be deemed competent enough to lie in the bat- tle -line with the "capital ships." _r.
