Here it is less of moment than in Britain, where the govern- ment, by entering into a written agreement with labor or- ganizations, pledged itself to a reversion to pre-war labor conditions at the end of the great war. women in Britain in industrial employment. In the United States few women -have entered indus- trial lives compared with the British total. Americ are merely estimates, for there has been no survey, and the highest only approximates 1,000,000. In mechanical undertakings requiring care and exacti- tude woman's outturn in many cases has been equal to that of six men. In same departments women &re classed as superior to the average male worker. In street car and transportation tasks they have been a disappointment. The conductoret is not likely to be re- tained. Dress probably played a part in woman's failure in the field of transportation. In shop or factory she garbs herself sensibly in working clothes. uniform has not been of good selection. Generally it has been ill-fitting and unbecoming and she knows it. Generally, too, the strain of standing so much has taxed the nerves of car women and impaired efficiency. With the lessening of demand owing to the stoppage of, much of the war work there has been a reduction in the number of women workers, but not to a pronounced degree, and here, as in Britain, labor unions may find trouble if, , they do not accept women into full membership with equal y and privileges as the male worker in any branch of bor where they can perform the same work as men. Good example! Uncle Sam saved a million in buy- ing coffee before the rise in price. Moral: Always buy before prices go up—iwhen you know they're going to soar. How easy! League of Nations Let’s read a little history. It may help us to keep going on the right track despite derailing efforts of reactionary propagandists. Look at the league of nations, for instance. Frank Sim- onds, as inept a political commentator as he was expert a War prophet, is telling the country that the league of nations is a parallel to the Holy Alliance, which was formed by the , _ erowned heads of Europe after Napoleon's defeat. Simonds argues we should follow the “sound prece- This precedent was to make peace with the enemy first, and then, afterward, to our international peace league. Simonds lets slip the admission that this “sound prec- edent” was disastrous. The peace which was made first of all, before the league of nations was planned, didn't hold water... The allies had to fight Napoleon all over Simonds thirdly declares that the Holy Alliance— which he compares to a league of nations—kept Europe in chains for more than half a century. It did. And, for that very reason, it bears no relationship to the supposed league of nations. The Holy Alliance was a league of kings, intended, not to preserve peace among“the peoples, but to preserve the thrones of emperors against the grow- ing wave of liberalism. Since Simonds himself admits that the Holy Alliance was a cruel farce, it is hard to understand his holding it before his wide audience as a sound precedent for the present peace congress.

Among the labor bodies listed as protesting against the continued imprisonment of Labor Agitator Tom Mooney, in California, on perjured evidence that convicted him of murder, we note the trades council of Glasgow, Scotland. This body represents 100,000 unionists. When even the workingmen of our allied nations are rising in protest against California's treatment of Mooney, isn’t it time for~American public opinion to DEMAND cond this man be tried again, with the false evidence ruled out? If Mooney caused the bomb explosion he should be hanged, not kept in prison. But if he’s guilty let's convict him fairly. crowds Paderewski as ‘president may bring harmon Poland. i . ae: “Wilsons live simply as prominence permits.” Most folks live as prominently as their simple means permit.

It is easily understood how serious are the troubles which are caused by stagnation of decayed matter in the large intestines—poison reabsorbed and taken into the circulation—this is called auto-intoxic: It is apparent, therefore, that the first necessity is The best method for cleaning the whole intestinal tract and urging the liver into activity is to take as much outdoor exercise as possible, drink hot water before meals, and take a pleasant laxative, vegetable pill occasionally. Such a one is made up of May-apple, leaves of aloe, root of jalap; made into a sugar-coated pill that gives tone f to the bowels. This was first made and sold by druggists nearly fifty years ago, as Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. The cost is twenty-five cents. Such simple means will prevent auto-intoxication. People are realizing that the kidneys, just as do the bowels, need to be flushed occasionally. The kidneys are an eliminative or- gan and are constantly working, separating the poisons from the blood. Urie acid backs up into the system, causing rheuma- tism, neuralgia, dropsy and many other serious disturb- ances. This can be avoided by stimulating the kid- neys to increased ac tion, and because of its tonic effect on the organs I would advise any one to get Anuric (double strength), which is to be had now- adays for sixty cents, at almost any drug store, and take Also drink hot water before meals. who patronize us use the word to tell us what they think our work.
