SUFFERED MANY YEARS WITH FEMALE TROUBLE PE-RU-N'A LIKE A SIFT FROM HEAVEN ® Mrs. Katie Scheffel, l f R. F. D. No. 5. Lowell, Ohio $1 **I have been suffering for years with female trouble. Was operated on five years ago. It relieved me some but I did not regain my strength. Two years later was taken sick and bedfast several months. I treated a long while without much relief. I was dis couraged, my mind affected, so nervous 1 could neither eat or sleep and unable to do anything. We tried several doctors but one after another gave up my case as hopeless. Finally a good friend advised me to try Pe-ru-na. I did. It relieved me almost immediately. |Your medical department said I was suffering from chronic catarrh of the system. I began taking your medicine in March, 1914, and con tinued until August. I took ten bottles of Pe-ru-na and three bot tles of Man-a-lin and felt like a new person. Your medicine seemed like a gift from Heaven. It was like ’coming from darkness into light. >We have used your medicine since for \ coughs, colds and grip with good results. We will always keep it on hand. I weigh twenty five pounds more than I ever did, cat and sleep well and can do a good day's work. Everybody says 1 look fine. Even the doctors are Surprised. I cannot thank you enough and will always recommend Pe-ru—na to sufferers from catarrh.” MRS. KATIE SCHEFFEL. R. F. D. No. 5, Lowell, O. ' Mrs. Scheffel is only one of many thousand women in the world, who owe their present health to Pe-ru-na. The record of. this medicine is a proud one as Pe-ru na has held th’e confidence of both sexes for fifty years or more. If your trouble is due to a catarrhal inflammation in any or gan or part of the body, do like Mrs. Scheffel. Try Pe-ru-na. Insist upon having the original and re liable remedy for catarrhal condi tions. You won’t be sorry.

Draped from chairs, tables idoorknobs and ropes are sixty dainty, filmy silk nighties of all hues and sizes and conditions of servitude. They are, so the explanation goes, the results of the labors of Joseph Labedz, who is a fancier of these gar ments. Labedz has been in Detroit four months, having come from Chi cago. In that time he has collected ninety silk nighties from various back [yards in the north end, he admits. He was arrested when Mrs. Sydney O. Mills missed three of the dainty [garments from her washline. Police | were notified. They arrested Labedz. | He was wearing all three of the ; nighties as underwear. Labedz pleaded guilty before Judge [ Charles L. Bartlett in Recorder’s court. He was sentenced to ninety days in the house of correction, one for each nightie.

AT first blush the action e? the ' Presbyterian General Assembly in the Fosdick affair seems a trl- j umph for conservatism. Yet upon 1 closer view it becomes doubtful if the conservatives have much to re-1 toice over. Consider the situation: j Rev. Dr. Harry Emerson Fosdick is the special Sunday preacher at i the First Presbyterian church in1 New York city. He is not a Pres- J byterian. He is an ordalbed Baptist ( minister. Further, he is a profes-1 sor in Union Theological Seminary, |' an undenominational institution.1 which has frequently been con- j demned in Presbyterian circles for / Its unorthodox Christianity. Ob- < vlously Rev. Dr. Fosdick is not likely 1 to preach doctrines whicu belong pe-, cullarly to the Presbyterian faith, j He has even been accused of having' denied the divinity of Christ, the ■ rankest kind of “heresy.” Now, in dealing with this situation,, the most that the conservativesi could do was to force through the i assembly a resolution expressing, “profound sorrow that doctrines con-1 trary to the standards of the Pres^y-! terlan church had been taught” from 1 Its pulpits. These are rather gen eral terms, open to a variety of in terpretations. And the vote should j be noted: 439 to 359. Thus 359, bona fide Presbyterians, many of ( them members of the clergy, sorry | perhaps that “doctrines contrary to the standards of the Presbyterian :hurch had been taught” in that ihurch, refused to approve a "blind” ittack on Dr. Fosdick. This is liberalism, indeed. Surely ■' it is the very ultimate of liberalism and tolerance for so considerable a body of representative members of. one denomination to be willing to turn over the pulpits of that denom ination, permanently so to speak, to ministers of another denomination. When some years ago the Episcopal ians decided to throw open their pul pits upon occasion to clergymen of other faiths there was a loud chorus of approval from all religious lib erals. But the stand of the Episco palians is of but infinitesimal import when compared with what so many Presbyterians—almost half of the church membership, If the delegates to the General Assembly are truly representative—propose to do. t DID YOU KNOW? ^ £♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦ Occupation of Constantinople between April, 1919, and March, 1923, cost Eng land $100,000,000.

Senator Kenyon, at a session of the Calder committee, asked Colonel Wentz, representative of the coal operators, if he considered the coal business a private business. Colonel Wentz answered affirmatively. Apparently, the senator thought otherwise, for he remarked that the rail road business had been considered a private business once upon a time, but the transportation people had practiced rebating, had played politics, had dlacrlmiv&ted and generally had conducted their affairs from a selfish basis and in disregard of public rights until the public had to act. No correction of these pernicious practices apparently was possible, so long as railroading was considered a private business. Not until the gdvemnment assumed the authority vested in it and showed that railroading was a national matter, did the evils end. Street railroad people thought their was a private business, too, and ran wild until they came under city or state regulation. He made some comment, too, on banking methods which long ago led to governmental supervision. “We might get along without banking,” he remarked, “but we cannot do with out railroads and coal." Then he inquired If Colonel Wentz saw any good reason why the coal operators should object to furnishing to the government accurate data as to costs of producing coal. The colonel replied that it would be discriminatory, no such information being t’emanded from industries or from farmers. v Senator Kenyon, who Is one of the ablest men in congress, is bent on reg ulating the coal industry. Possibly that Is but a step to nationalization. The drift of sentiment the world over is in that directldn. If it comes here coal people will be responsible even If they were not guilty of all the crimes charged against them recently. Colonel Wentz might have put up a fair argument against regulation or-nationalization if he had been better posted. There is a distinction between the coal business and the businesses of trans portation and banking. Railroads get charters granting certain rights to them, in return for which they contract to perform certain public functions. So* too, with street railroads and national and state banks. VV hen they vio* late these contracts, as some of t£em have done, they are subject to govern mental regulation or control. Railroads have the right to condemn private property. A coal company has no such right. It enters Into no contract with the state. In essence It Is a private concern. If a government assumes the same right in relation to a coal concern as It does to a railroad, the whole question of property becomes Involved. Legally this is a delightful prospect. How the highest court would determine it is in the realm of guesswork. Probably conditions at the time would determine the jurists In their finding. They might decide that the Interests of the many are superior to the privileges of the few; that the ma jority must not be exploited by the minority or that public good is supreme to private profit. However that may be, the coal operators are by no means happy. They are conscious of their sins, but find some comfort in the knowledge that they haven't committed all the crimes of which they are charged. Sinners are peculiar in that respect. It doesn’t matter what they have done, how much they have transgressed, if they are accused of doing something more than really was done they consider they are entitled to sympathy. As a matter of fact, it required a very well balanced coal man to keep his feet on the ground and be strictly honest and fair In the days when coal, so to speak, ran wild. Half the time the average coal man had difficulty in keeping up with the kaleidoscopic changes. The fuel administration gave orders at one time. The railroad administration butted In another. Next, the department of justice got busy. One month there were priorities for this dis trict or that section. Another time there were embargoes on one section or another. Still later, what was contract coal became free coal. All the time prices were going crazy. The world seemed to be mad for coal at any price, and the higher it went the more urgent the demand. Even t*1® entered the market, and they were worse than all the others. Oh. by th# way, the Interstate Commerce commission also butted In. Much has been made of the various coal strikes. If report is true, the unions and representatives of the bituminous operators entered into agree ment, or rather an understanding, to squeeze the public and split the plunder. The strike developed, it is asserted, because the railroads tried, and in soma eases succeeded, in getting coal below the government price. The union miners had exalted ideas of the rake off they would receive, and, believing they were being swindled or lied to by the operators, struck. There was profiteering as never before. Many operators sought to be honest but in the riot of price Increases and of charges of profiteering they thought they might as well profit by the game as well as have the name of being parties to it. They cloaked their operations by tacking wholesaling on to their business. They formed groups of four or six or eight.. They wouldn t sell free coal to the public, but they sold it to their neighbors wholesale house, and he sold it to another operator's wholesale adjunct, and he to an other, and so on, 50 cents a ton being added to every transaction. Sometime* one lot of coal was handled 10 times In this manner. Sometimes only the 50 cents was added to the price. Sometimes It was 10 per cent. Thfre Is air in stance of one lot the initial transaction In which was at $3.50 a ton that woi • in cn o ton when it grot out of the one circle of operators. °‘ There was utter demoralization after the strike so far as distribution wa* concerned, and there was almost as bad a condition when the department of justice people got after some of the operators. Some of the worst offenders dropped out of the local market In hope of saving their skins and turned aft their attention to export trade. This only tended to aggravate the domestic shortage The department of justice probably will be wrestling with some of thefe cases for years. It's difficult in varipus instances to separate the bLIo from the coats It would be well If 100 or more of the worst offenders £rXng prison farms and the others had fines plastered on them that would blistex'their consciences or their fears for the rest of their lives.

Cheap labor cheapens the mnssA spir itual and physical pawera *t the under paid man or wentaa, and la th* ead la the costliest lahar. A cheap onat breeds ill-will and lessens a man’s seK-mspect; a good garment helps the inward as well as the outward man. Cheapness finds its meat fertile field In India, where wages run from t t# 11 cents a day and where Indescribable poverty and suffering are everywhere in evidence; in China, where poverty is so great that millions starve; in Africa and Japan. But America has blessed the world by high wages, for by introducing high wage schedules here it has gradu- ' ally lifted up wages throughout the world. There are, however, some nar row, shriveled, money-mad souls or oth ers. falsely trained In economics, who believe in low wages, in poverty for the farmer and the laborer, and In the cheap coat and the cheap man. They cannot comprehend that “cheapness” la a cheapness of soul in themselves, and they measure humanity only by what they can make their dollar buy of other people’s labor and products. High wages, full salaries, high prices for farm products are a thousand tlfncs better than low wages, lew salaries and low prices for farm products. 8hould Blot Thom Out. From Loo Angeles Times (republican). As President Wilson. sick but cour Ageoas, Is getting ready te retire from the presidency It seems ratber ungen erous to stigmatise him as “the most hated man in the United States.” An Associated Press report attributes this description to a great republican. If the congressman Is correctly reported al lowance must be made for the fact that he spoke tn the heat of debate. Many words are uttered at Washington which give pain even to the orators when seen In cold print. President Wilson is not the most hated man In the land. Her forced some short sighted policies on the country during his eight-year occupancy of the greatest office in the world, but, taken all in all, he lived up to the tradi tions of the position. Of course, he made mistakes. He Is not a superman. Incapable of error, but a frail mortal like the rest of us. Gifted he must be above the average man and he has free ly given to the world the treasures of his brain. His state papers alone dur ing the war Insure for him fame.
