TTiere are three vital aci,—-T^rg^ynan or- - -- processes of K'flmiiri _ food, the extraction of nourishment from it and the elimination of waste. Poor digestion and assimilation means failure to derive full nourish ment from food and that in turn often means impoverished blood, weakness, anemia, etc. Poor elimination means an 1 accumulation of waste matter which poisons the body, lowers vitality, decreases the power of resistance to disease and leads to the development of many serious ills. Rheumatism,—due to some inter ference with the process of elimina tion, failure to get rid of certain body poisons,—cannot be expected to yield to any medicine that fails to correct the condition responsible for it. Could any reasonable person expect to rid himself of rheumatic pain as long as rheumatic poison Is allowed to remain in the body. Think of this. It explains the suc cess of Natures Remedy (NR Tablets) In so many cases where other medicines have failed. Thousands are using NR Tablets every day and get ting relief.

CONFESSES CRIME MAN KILLS HIMSELF Ben Kilpatrick Found Dead in Ccdl of Jail at Philadelphia, Miss. , Philadelphia, Miss., Aug. 27.—Two hours after he had confessed to a cor oner’s jury to having killed Johd Bre land, one of the victims of a double murder commuted near here Friday, Ben Kilpatrick, 45, faj-mer, married, was found dead in his cell In the coun ty jail here today. When found Kilpatrick’s body was suspended by a wire rope made from part of a cot. He was in the con demned cell. According to the story told the coroner’s Jury by Kilpatrick, Breland and Lewis Burnett, brohers-in-law, fanners, were building fences with him Fiday. The latter two quarrelled, then Breland hit Burnett in the back of the head with a small axe, killing him. Kilpatrick, who admitted an inter est in Breland’s wife, said that a few minutes later, with the same weapon, he slew Breland In the same manner. Mrs. Breland was taken into custody last night. No formal charge has been placed against her. She has three chil dren. , When the murder of Bennett and Beland was discovered Friday it was thought they had killed each other. this branch, who “actively assist in figuring cost when bidding for work.” Official reports to Secretary Baker assert that the result has not been only greatly increased efficiency but a radical reduction in manufacturing cost. Two examples ci^ed are orders for mail locks, formerly cost $45 per thousand, but produced at Rock Island for $38, and an order for azimuth op tics at prices reduced from $55 each to $20.74. Development of the new system, the announcement, today said, grew from the situation immediately following the signing of the armistice, when it became apj^ent that the operating force woulcHbe reduced from lack of work, but the necessity for a change had been foreseen even before the war. “A condition of antagonism and distrust” had grown up prior^to the war between the management and the workmen, as a result of the attempted introduction of ’’eo-call^fd eclentiflc management methods,” and the men “finally found their only recourse was to place a deliberate limit on produc tion.” On the outbreak of war, however, it was said, the men voluntarily removed these limits, insisting only that piece work prices should not be reduced without their consent. Instances are cited of ther-nren recommending reduce tion in piece work prices in order that the arsenal could secure additional or ders and of voluntarily agreeing to work during lunch hours in order that an order “which had been figured very closely” might be filled.

Chicago, Aug. 27.*—A drop of $1 a hundred pounds on the average for hogs with lower prices for beef cattle at the stock yards today was ascribed to several reasons, including the gen eral protest agafnst the high cost of living. Market men said the tenden cy was for still lower hog prices, par ticularly after the fall marketing, and they professed to seg a break in high living costs. The public has cur tailed tts buying of pork and beef re cently while live stock receipts are large. The eastern market failed to act as an emergency outlet and the packers virtually withdrew their buyers from the pens today, leaving thousands of hogs and cattle without buyers. Speculators were hit hard. Live stock men say export business has been depressed by the foreign ex change situation and that this cou pled with receipt of hogs that accu mulated on farms during the railroad shopmen’s strike and the prospect of a strong run of hogs, helpe dto cause the weak market While tt\e average drop for hogs was at $1, the difference between to day’s lowest point was fully $1.50, live stock authorities said, while the aver age drop for beef cattle today ranged from 50 to 75 cents a hundred pounds. Sheep also sold, lower.
