WaMiington.—From eight t oton car loads of mail for American soldiers are undelivered in France, Second Assist ant Postmaster General Pr&eger told the senate postoffice committee, and “thousands and probably millions” of letters addressed to the men overseas arrive in New York soon to be sent to the dead letter office where an attempt will be made to return them to the writers. Blame for the failure to deliver this mail was placed on the war de partment by Mr. Praeger, who again explained that the army authorities handle all soldiers’ mail in France, the postoffee department delivering outgoing mail at Hoboken and receiv ing returning mail at the French ports. Mr. Praeger said one way to im prove conditions overseas would be to send a force of experienced mail clerks to France to deliver the mail to the soldiers. Mr._ Praeger told the committee that one reason for the confusion in the delivery of mail to soldiers was the failure of the war department to keep up its index system. This same cause, ’ he declared, also was responsible for the department’s delay in sending out ♦BTcpertiaf > Suffered For Years Back and Kidneys Were ia Bad Shape, But Doan’s Removed all the Trouble — ‘‘My kidneys wete no'weak tbit the least cold 1 caught would affect them and atart my back aching until I could hardly endure the miaery,” says Mrs. G.

OLD WAY GOOD ENOUGH FOR SECYS GLASS AND BURLESON SUPREME COUNCIL OF PEACE CONFERENCE HOLDS SESSION / \ signs that tbe liver ia out of order. Prof. Hem- meter says: "The liver is an grgan secondary in importance only to the heart.’’ ' We can manu fac- ture poisons within our own bodies which are as deadly as a snake's venom. The liver acts as a guard over our well-being, sifting out the cinders and ashee from the general circulation. A blockade in tbe intestines piles a heavy harden upon the liver. If the intestines are choked or dogged np, the circulation of the blood becomes poisoned and the system becomes loaded with toxic waste, and we suffer from headache, yellow-coated tongue, bad taste in month, nausea, or kas, acid dyspepsia, languor, debility, yellow skin or eyes. At such times one should take a pleasant laxative. Such a one is made of May-apple, leaves of aloe, lalap, put into ready-to-use form by.
