15,000 Blinded by
Industrial Accidents
New York,—Industrial accidents
cause more blindness and eye in
juries than any other single cause.
Of a total of 100,000 blind persons in
the United States, 16,000 became so
through industrial accidents. There
Is hardly an industrial occupation
In America which does not add annu
ally to the steady Increasing total of
the Industrial-blind and near-blind.
Approximately 200,000 eye accidents
occur in Industry each year.
The National Committee for the
prevention of blindness which Is
working for the elimination of
blindness, eye Injuries and eye
diseases, both in industry and else
where, has Just sent to press a com
prehensive report on “Eye Hazards
In Industrial Occupations," in which
are contained these facts.

Millionaire Now Owns
Yacht Which Rescued Him
London.—There's a pleasant, lit
tle story, In the best vein of Hora
tio Alger, concealed behind the an
nouncement that Sir Walter Runcl
man, head of the great shipping
itne, has left in his yacht "Sun
beam” for a cruise.
The yacht "Sunbeam" is the fa
mous old yacht In which Lord and
Lady Brasaey made many years ago
their famous cruise around the
world. They wrote a book about it.
They tell the story of how, when
they were cruising off the River
Plate in the '70's, they noticed a
small English barque In distress.
With some difficulty they effected
the rescue of the crew. The captain
was a young fellow, who said his
name was Walter Runciman. The
shipwreck beggared him, but he
"had youth In his favor.”
Today he is a millionaire ship
owner, a baronet and the owner of
the yacht which rescued him.
Give Indians Fake
Permits for Trading
Washington.—Secretary of the In

sury department of the fraudulent
sale of trading permits to Indians of
northern New York which purport to
give them rights to trade across the
United States and Canadian borders
without payment of duties, it was
learned here today.
The fake permits bear the name of
the assistant secretary of the trea
sury occupying that office in 1873,
and are based on the treaty of amity,
commerce and navigation ©included
between this country and (Jreat Brit
ain in 1794. This treaty has been ab
rogated by subsequent lutings and
acts, it was pointed out, and Indians
other traders.

To Limit Expanding Federalism
One of Serious Fiscal Problems
From the Minneapolis Journal.
Bentley W. Warren, a prominent lawyer of Boston, writing
Is the Atlantio Monthly, points the enormous growth of Federal
activity and power in these striking terms:
"Even before the citizen of a state can now be born,
he and his prospective mother are subject to rules and
regulations established by the Federal Bureau. After
birth, the extent and method of his education will, un
der the Sterling-Towner bill, be fixed by a Federal De
partment of Education. However needy may be the
condition of his parents, or however great his own am
bition to earn something, the Child Labor Amendment
will enable Congress entirely to prohibit his labor until
he is 18 years old. On reaching manhood, his right to
marry and, in the event of an unfortunate marriage, his
resort to divorce, may be dictated bv the federal gov
ernment. . . Would it not be difficult to imagine a
more complete invasion of those ‘more domestic and
personal interests of the people,' which the authors of
the constitutiQn intended should be provided for and
regulated by the states?"
As one studies the steady drive toward federal centralization
and control, the qu°stion naturally arises as to what will check it.
The flood of laws is not likely soon to bo diminished. Preaching
against the tendency avails little, for crises arise in which federal
aid and power are invoked, as in the present farm and bank em
ergency.
Mr. Warren does not undertake to say what will check it, but
It seems likely that federal centralization will tv* eventually
cheeked by the inability of the individual taxpayer to bear its
costs.
Note how Federal expense mounts. In 1914 the Federal Trade
commission was allowed $75,000. Eight years later it* appropria
tion was $995,000, or 13 times the initial amount. This story of
mounting expense can be duplicated in the multiplying bureuus
and doles of the rapidly centralizing Federal government.
The individual taxpayer bears the burden. It d^es not take
much foresight to realize that the time will soon come when he
can stand no more tax burdens. His very inability teems likely
to be the eeonomio force that will check federal centralization,
and send us back to the more wholesome ways of individual self
help anti c«re which early economists like Herbert Soeneer and
John Stuart Mill urged should not be lost or compromised.
A Real Exhibition.
From the Chicago New*.
The famous ventriloquist, Arthur
Prince, was once asked to give a speci
men of his art at an open charity basaar.
So he took his atand beneath & big
chestnut tree and peering up Into the
branches called out:
"Young man, what are you doing up
there?"
"Nothin’ mister," faltered a childish
voice. "I Just climbed up her* to see
the show."
Mr Prince was arr.ased, for of oourss
as hadn't the slightest idea that any
I one was up the tree. But he was equal
i to the occasion. lie waited for the ap
plause to cease and then said:
"■Will you behave yourself, ronny, If
I let you stay up there?" .... .
••Oh, yee. sir." said a frightened
voice.
More loud applause.
"Well, stay there, then, but hold
^•Yes, sir, I will.” Renewed applause.
"Don’t fall.”
Then Mr Prince turned and bowed to
the audience. It was the moat succe*#- -
ful exhibition of his career.
Origins
From the Wichita Eagle
Robert Sherwood, said to he the
oldest circus clown In America, in a
epeech the other day told about the
tactics Of the early-day circus pick
pocket. You will all remember the
high wins exhibition announced by
the barker to take place on the cir
cus lot immediately after the parade.
The idea was to get the people strain
ing their necks to watch the per
formance while a few wary pick
pockets removed their change. The
weighing machine found ite origin
among the pickpocket element of the
circus. The gueaser ran his hands
over the candidate. "I guess your
weight to be" meant "his money is
in his hip pocket." “I think his
weight Is" meant the treusere pocket,
and "I say your weight is,” the ln
elde coat pocket. If finally every
means failed to locate the pocketbook
one of the gang mounted a soap box
and said: "Ladles and gentlemen. I
have been Informed that there are
several pickpockets circulating In the
crowd, and in behalf of tha clrcua I
ask each of you to kindly keep his
hand upon hla pocketbook."
Could Spell it “Joans,” Anyway.

From Ford's Dearborn Independent.
It Is no proof of efficiency in
government that certain public act*
are being Investigated. It only proves
the previous Inefficiency of our sys
tem. Yet some endeavor to reap
glory from the present situation ae
if it indicated that government was
at last becoming effective. As In
vestigations and their causes are
not the main business of nations,
they should never be confused with
that main business. Unless they
teach us how to avoid the necessity
for future Investigations, they are
a total loss of time and money, it
is not the interesting nature of the
material turned up, but the extent
to which the probe is driven back
behind the scenes, that makes in

delivered In half the time It takes

D’Annunzio's Tltls.
From the Philadelphia Public Ledger.
A princely title and % name directly
associated with the scene of one of
the most dramatic episodes of his
war activities has bean given to
Gabriele D'Annunzio b^ the King of
Italy. It is doubtful whether the
erratic poet, author, soldier, aviator
and adventurer will become better
known as the “Pring* of Monte
Nevono” than lie has made himself
by his own patronymic. The “snowy
mountain" which form* one of the
defenses of Flume and which fur
nishes the title for D’A/tminzIo was
aptly chosen for the purpose, for
whatever may have been D’Annun
zio’# other achievements during the
war, hla expedition to Piume nnd his
spectacular defiance of the Powers
laid the foundation for Its ultimate
annexation to Italy. TJiere was a
period during that exploit when Uie
Italian Government was compelled to
take a position that was nominally
at least in opposition to the D’An
' nunzlo program, but Italian sym
pathy was wholly with Um and what
he laid out to do with respect to
Flume.

Memel
From The New Vork World.
The Memel question Is (l familiar
one. It Is the case of Danzig, of Fl
ume. of Pa Ion lea; it should be and
might have been the case of Con
stantinople if American withdrawal
and Entente blunderirig had not let
the Turk back Into Europe- the re
lation of a port to a hinterland of a
different nationality depending upon
it for a trade outlet.
The League of Nations' special
committee on Memel has presented,
as the draft of a convention do form
the basis of a settlement, a plan to
give sovereignty over Memel to Lith
uania. to grant local autonomy to
Memel territory and to guard inter
national transportation rights In
Memel and upon the Nlemen River.
in the old German Reich, Meinel
was farthest north; the spearpolnt of

and cut by numerous arms of the

OPERATIONS FOR
FEMALE TROUBLES
Some Are Necessary, Some Are Not
These Women Gave Lydia E. Pinkham’s Veg
etable Compound a Trial First
rairview.s.Dalcota.—“A year ago I
was sick in bed for three weeks and the
doctor said I would not be any better
without an operation. I had bearing
down pains and sick headaches, witn
pains in the back of my neck. I felt
tired all the time, down-hearted, and
got poor and pile and was scarcely
able to do anything at all for some
time before I took to my bed. The
doctor said one of my organs was out
of place and caused all my troubles.
I was too weak and run-down to think
of an operation and as one of my
neighbors told me about Lydia E.
Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, I
began taking it. I have received
great relief from it and recommend
it very highly. It cannot be praised
too much in cases of female weak
ness.”—Mrs. O. M. Ring, Box 106,

New Jersey Woman Writes
Camden, New Jersey. — “I take
great pleasure in writing you this tes
timonial. I was a great sufferer of
woman s ailments and doctors told
me 18 years ago that I must have a
serious operation to remove some of
my organs. I refused to have it done
and took a full course of your medi
icines for six months, then after the
full course I took a bottle of Lydia
E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound
every week or two. also Lydia E.
Pinko am’s * Blood Medicine every
Spring. I am well and stout and stOl
have my organs they wanted to re
move. It was while I was in the
hospital that I heard ycur medicines
S raised by other patients there. I
ave recommended them to my
friends and to roy own family. You
may use this testimonial far and
near, from the smallest paper to the
largest, and I will gladly answer let
ters from women who wish to know
what the Vegetable Compound has
done for me and what it will do for
them if they give it a fair trial.” -
Mrs. J. Rich, 322 N. 40th St, Cam.
den, New Jersey.
Through neglect, some female trou
bles may reach a stage where an
operation is necessary, but most of
the common ailments are not surgi
cal ones; they are not caused by
serious displacements, tumors or
growths, although the symptoms may
sar the same.
