Tt stand at the parting of the ways, and is divided between the choice of following radical or conservative leadership. The former is alien to American ideals and leads to indus- trial chaos and disaster. The latter stands for real Americanism, and leads to peaceful adjustments step by step Dbetween capital and labor. Which way will labor go? Much depends upon the great international labor conference which begins October 6 at Washington, In that convocation at least reason will rule and not force. Discussion must clear the atmosphere; each will better un- derstand the problems of the others, and passion on both sides will be held in check. President Wilson is ex- pected to make important sugges- tions; and, whether they he accepted or not, there is little doubt that the way will be opened toward better working relations between capital and labor. Perhaps the actual gain will be small; but a real step should be taken in the right direction, and some progress made toward the open field and fair play which is the only amicable course for progress in all human interchanges.

It is not supposed that intelligent labor not grasp the fact that the Iving cannot be lowered by wages and lowering the output Individually, labor must be conscious that the only cure for high prices is to increase the output and seek plenty rather than scarcity; but, col- lectively, it refuses to recognize or act upon any such ideas. Such a state of mind of course hurts labor more than any other interest, and can only be attributed to the world-wide strain and upset following the great wa Perhaps it is part of the uni- versal scramble to get more without any regard to the interests of rights of others.

If the great labor congress which as- sembles in a few days is conducted in such a spirit, great good may re- sult and a new road blazed leading toward industrial peace and a more just distribution of the proceeds of industry. Stock Market Conditions. market during the week has been irregular and unset- tled, due to the strike of the steel employees. While the strikers have been able to force a partial shutdown of some of the plants they have not met with the success they anticipated, and it now looks as if the strike would end with defeat. The better element of the workers, even those who are union men, do not agree with the plan of Fitzpatrick and Foster and as the latter is preaching revolution, which is foreign to our form of government, all of the con- servative leaders hesitate to fully en- dorse him. It may take several days or possibly several weeks to end the controversy, but every day that the wheels of the steel industry keep turning is an indication of the prob- able failure of the strikes to attain their object. Mr. Gary is defending a principle which is thoroughly American in refusing to treat with any organization outside of his own employees. It has been generally be- lieved that the U. S. Steel Corpora- tion has always been most fair in the treatment of its workmen and during the present labor dispute I have read nothing that controverts such an opinion. I believe that the great majority of steel workers have been satisfied with the treatment they have received, but as they are nuorganized they have not the same influence on the public mind the unions who have unexcelled facilities for spreading their views broadcast through their local representatives. While supporting orders have un- doubtedly been placed in the stocks most threatened by the situation, it is evident that stock traders have not been greatly frightened and have not been forced to liquidate. Interest in railroad stocks is showing more activity. The lower priced rails are receiving increased attention, as many of them are selling on an at- tractive basis. With any definite plan worked out by congress to do tice to the stockholders railroad shares would at once become the leaders in the market. An expanding interest in the Liberty bond market, which very naturally has shown steady ap- preciation ever since the publication of the secretary of the treasury’s en. regarding position of the treasury that the War Finance Corporation was operating for the account of the government sinking fund and a some- what easier trend in the money The naturally is evidenced the Knowledga | market have acted as a further stimu- lant to public interest. The most conspicuous movements have been in the second 4s and the second 4%s, which during the week have scored ‘an advance of over 100 points.

Henry Fagan Publishes “Painless Dentistry” | | How few us realize what an |m~i portant attribute good sound teeth are | -to comfort, health and beauty. With | the great strides science has made | within the past few years no hmm-h“ can be more pleasing nor more useful, than dentistry, Teeth like intellect, other gifts of Mother of beauty and all Nature are not DR, HENRY FAGAN. bestowed in like degrees on all. There seems to be few people who receive teeth of equal beauty, strength and wearing qualities. But all, fortunately, can have PER- SCT TEETH for practically their entire lives, if they at all times will give them proper care and the atten- tion of a dental specialist. 1 By proper care I mean constant at- tention in the cleaning of teeth, mouth and gums. My advice to all who would acom- plish this result is to use a medium bristled tooth brush and a reliable tooth paste or powder. Brush the teeth twice daily, year in and year out, wetting the brush in clean water and placing a small amount of the dentri- fice on it, then washing your teeth up and down, using a rotary motion to clean the crevices. Brush the grind- ing and back surfaces of the teeth, 41 | and then rinse your mouth thorough- ly with lukewarm water. By follawing such instructions you will greatly elongate the lives of your teeth and vour breath, health and per- sonal appearance will be greatly bene- fited. Consult a dental specialist at least every six months after you are assur- ed that your teeth are in perfect con- dition. But are vour teeth now perfect? Let Dr. Fagan examine them for you. By our skilful porcelain methods we are enabled to provide natural porcelain substitute teeth in the place of too-far-gone or entirely missing ones so that you may take your rightful place among people who possess good-looking and good acling teeth. By our 1y methods we are able to positively trace and identify any hidden tooth disorders that may be sapping your vitality and health and thuspe remove them from your sys- tem, permitting you to regain strength, steady nerves and your usual, agreeable disp. ion. There absolutely no pain when Dr. Fagan's “Nap-a-Minit" is used— teeth extracted and filled, nerves /re- moved, crown and bridge work in- serted with absolute painlessness. This wonderful pain destroyer does not put vou to sleep—it simply, makes you insensible to pain. Dr. Fagan and ists are located at over Besse-Leland's, Conn.—advt. Mr. M. B.
